Chapter 36 The chip market has changed dramatically, and Beili has panicked

Northern Beauty, White Palace! (To prevent river crabs, the place in the White Hall should know something!) )

Xie Lu is the top class of the Northern Beauty.

The assistant is reporting the news of Xia Guo to Xie Lu.

"Xia Guo Xia Xin International Co., Ltd. held a product launch conference yesterday and announced the successful development of 12nm carbon-based chip lithography machine."

"Xia Guo CCTV and many official media in various countries have released this news."

"In addition, Xia Xin International gave every reporter a 12nm carbon-based chip at the product launch conference."

"Reporters from various countries have tested that it is indeed a 12nm carbon-based chip, with ten times the performance of TSMC's 12nm chip and 8.3 times that of the 7nm chip."

"At the same time, Xiaxin International's lithography machines and chips are completely domestically autonomous."

"Whether it is parts, technology and materials, they are all completely manufactured by Xia Guo itself, and do not rely on any foreign country."

Xie Lu's face became more and more ugly as he listened.

When he heard that the lithography machine and chip were completely domestically autonomous, his face changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "How is this possible, could it be that Xia Guo can already reach the world's top level in lenses, optics and precision machines?" ”

The manufacture of a top-of-the-line lithography machine requires more than 100,000 parts, which are supplied by parts manufacturers from all over the world.

For example, ASML's high-end chip lithography machine, the light source of the core components comes from Cymer company in Beiliguo, the optical lens comes from Zeiss company in Germany, the composite material technology comes from Dongyingguo, and the high-precision automatic control technology comes from other European companies.

If Xia Guo manufactures a 12nm carbon-based chip lithography machine that is completely domestically autonomous, any parts and technologies will come from Xia Guo itself.

So the meaning of this is very scary.

It is equivalent to saying that the manufacturing industry of Xia country PK the manufacturing industry of various countries around the world.

Although Xia is a manufacturing power, it is not a manufacturing power.

There is a big gap between a manufacturing power and a manufacturing power.

A manufacturing power refers to the large number of products manufactured every year.

A manufacturing power refers to the quality of the products manufactured to reach the world's top level.

The manufacturing power of Beili will not panic, but the manufacturing power, Beili will panic.

Manufacturing power + manufacturing power, Beili country is even more panicked.

The assistant said: "I don't know about this, the people below didn't report it." ”

Xie Lu's face turned red, and he gasped for breath continuously, as if he was having trouble breathing.

He roared angrily: "Check for me, you must know whether Xia Guo's manufacturing industry has reached the world's top level." ”

The assistant said, "Yes! ”

The assistant said: "Also, Xia Xin International's 12nm carbon-based chip was developed under the leadership of Ye Fei. ”

Xie Lu instantly frowned: "Is it Ye Fei, who developed Web3.0, led to the collapse of many securities companies, and almost broke out a financial crisis on Wall Street?" ”

"It's him!" The assistant said.

Xie Lu said: "I remember, there is a special person responsible for dealing with Ye Fei!" ”

The assistant said: "Yes, it is Boi who is in charge, he was originally the deputy director of the Security Division, and later separated from the Security Department to establish the Xia Guo Science and Technology Counterattack Division, and he is the director." ”

Xie Lu asked, "Has he done anything in so long?" ”

The assistant hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems that there are no results." ”

Xie Lu's forehead was bruised: "Now that Ye Fei has ridden on our heads, he hasn't made any achievements, what's the use of him?" Tell him to fuck off immediately. ”

"Yes!" The assistant said.

The assistant hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then what about Ye Fei?" ”

Xie Lu said, "Call Deep." ”

Pudi is the Director of the Department of Overseas Security.

Internationally famous executioner.

Once in the world, in order to maintain the safety and honor of the North Beauty, his hands were covered with blood.

When the assistant heard the word Deep, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he bowed his head and said, "Yes!" ”

With that, walk out of the office.

A moment later, a tall, thin middle-aged man in a suit and a round hat walked in with a cane in his hand.

Dipper walked in, took off the round hat from his head, placed it on his abdomen, and bowed, "Mr. Sherou, it's an honor to serve you. ”

Xie Lu said: "Dip, do you know Ye Fei of Xia Kingdom? ”

Dipu said: "Is it Ye Fei, who developed Web3.0? ”

"It's him!" Xie Lu said: "I want you to be responsible for everything he does next." ”

"Do you want his life?" Dipper asked.

"When the time is right, you can make a move."

"Okay!"

Intel!

Intel is one of the big three in the chip field.

The other two giants are TSMC and Samsung.

And these three giants are also shareholders of ASML.

Conference room!

The atmosphere in the conference room was very heavy, and everyone's faces were solemn.

The chairman said: "Xiaxin International has developed a 12nm carbon-based chip, you should all know it!" ”

"This is the biggest crisis in the history of our company."

"An hour ago, I was on the phone with the chairman of ASML, ASML is developing photonic chips, and I want to break the game from this."

"However, photonic chips have not yet been developed."

"It will probably take another five or six years to develop."

"However, even if the photonic chip is developed, it cannot compete with the carbon-based chip developed by Xiaxin International."

"In terms of performance, there is a certain gap between photonic chips and carbon-based chips."

When all the directors heard this, their hearts were cold.

A director asked: "Can't we still cooperate with Xiaxin International as before to be a foundry?" ”

The chairman showed a self-deprecating smile on his face: "How do we cooperate with Xia Xin internationally?" ”

"Even if we want to cooperate, will Xiaxin International agree? Did Xia Guo agree? ”

"For so many years, Beili has forced Xia Guo's chips so hard."

"Now that Xia Guo's chips have become the world's first, it's good if they don't target us."

One director asked, "So what should we do now?" ”

The chairman said: "It is impossible to imagine the same as before, and according to my discussion with the chairman of ASML, we still have ten years to go. ”

"In the past ten years, our global business will be rapidly eroded by the chip manufacturing companies in Xia Guo."

"We will also lose the Xia country market quickly."

"The company's market value will be cut in half, or even more."

It was as if the directors had been crushed by a mountain.

It's easy to go from simple to luxurious, but it's difficult to go from luxury to simple!

As the three giants of chips, they must be very unhappy if they want to lose the glory of the chip field and live a life of relying on others.

However, reality forced them to bow their heads.

At this time, the chairman raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and said, "It's half past nine, turn on the video and look at our company's stock price today." ”

But everyone knows that the stock price must be very bad.

Someone turned on the video and tuned it to Intel stock price.

An hour later, everyone's faces turned pale and they looked at the stock price on the video in horror.

In just an hour, Intel's stock price fell from $29 to $27.

It's only been an hour, and this is just the beginning.

At this rate, it is possible to fall to $20 on this day.

Then, on this day, Intel's market value will fall by $27.5 billion, from $600 billion to $572.5 billion.

Moreover, this is only the first day, and it has fallen like this, and it will definitely fall later.

The people at Intel knew that their company's market value would definitely fall, but they didn't expect it to fall so hard.

The chairman said: "Look at TSMC's market capitalization. ”

Soon, someone adjusted to TSMC's market capitalization.

Seeing TSMC's stock price, they felt very uncomfortable.

Because TSMC fell a little less than them.

The stock price fell from $85 to $83.3, and the market capitalization fell by only $22 billion, and the market capitalization fell from $590 billion to $568 billion.

The chairman said: "Look at Samsung!" ”

After reading Samsung's stock price, they are even more unhappy in their hearts.

Because Samsung's market capitalization is only down $20 billion.

"ASML."

After looking at the market value of ASML, they were very uncomfortable.

ASML's market capitalization fell the least, falling by $19 billion.

When he is miserable, he always wants to find someone who is worse than him to seek psychological comfort.

However, the people at Intel have found that no one has been worse off in this crisis.

Whether it's TSMC, Samsung, or ASML.

The market value has fallen less than them.

The chairman muttered blankly: "How can this be? Why has our market capitalization fallen the hardest? ”

Actually, it's also very understandable.

Because Samsung is from Korea, TSMC is from Bay Province, and ASML is from the Netherlands.

Only Intel is from the North Coast.

With the relationship between Xia and Beili, the chips of Xia once rose, and it is impossible to say that they do not suppress the chips of Beili.

If Beili didn't press Xia Guo on chips before, Intel wouldn't be so miserable.

There is a saying that it is still against heaven to do evil, and you cannot live if you do it yourself!

This is all the retribution for what Beili did in the past.

Xiaxin International, meeting room!

The conference room of Xiaxin International was full of joy.

Qu Guangfu said with a smile: "There are still a few hours before the stock market opens, and our company's stock will definitely rise after the market opens." ”

"In the next half month, we will slowly release the stocks in our hands."

"All the money earned is invested in the chip industry."

A director asked, "Chairman, how will our company develop next?" Is it to develop lithography machines, or chip manufacturing, or both? ”

Qu Guangfu said: "Someone has already talked to me about this matter. ”

"The above means that more chips can be made as soon as possible."

"Therefore, our company wants to set up a lithography machine company."

"Xiaxin International is still a chip manufacturing company, and the lithography machine company is based on the lithography machine research institute as the core to form a lithography machine company, called Guanglong Company."

"There is a cooperative relationship between Xiaxin International and Optics Dragon, and Optics International is an investor in Optics Dragon."

"Xia Xin International accounts for 70% of the shares, and Ye Fei Scientific Research Institute accounts for 30% of the shares."

The directors nodded.

Before the development of the lithography machine, Xia Xin International and Ye Fei Scientific Research Institute reached a cooperation.

Xiaxin International made a profit of 70% from the lithography machine, and Ye Fei Scientific Research Institute made a profit of 30%.

Now the photolithography machine is established to establish the light dragon company, Xia Xin International accounts for 70% of the shares, and Ye Fei Science Research Institute accounts for 30% of the shares.

From this point of view, there is no need for Xia Xin International to give 30% of the shares of Guanglong Company to Ye Fei Scientific Research Institute.

But the directors understand the good intentions of the chairman, and the chairman wants to tie Ye Fei Scientific Research Institute, or Ye Fei, firmly to Guanglong Company.

Indirectly achieve the relationship between Xia Xin International and Ye Fei.

Qu Guangfu said: "Also, Guanglong will cooperate with high-quality chip manufacturing companies across the country and sell them lithography machines. ”

The directors were not happy to hear this.

A director said: "Chairman, you can't do this, isn't this encouraging other chip manufacturing companies!" ”

"We at Xiaxin International can manufacture chips by ourselves, so that we can become the most powerful chip manufacturing company in the country and even in the world."

Qu Guangfu shook his head and said, "It's not something I can decide, it's a decision from above." ”

"As mentioned above, chips are a big industry, we can't eat alone, we must share some profits with some other chip companies."

"Ouch......" the directors sighed in their hearts.

They couldn't resist what was being asked for.

Qu Guangfu raised his wrist to look at the time, and said, "It's time, turn on the video and watch the stock market." ”

When everyone heard this, they dispersed their depressed mood and began to look at the stock market with anticipation.

Soon, the video opened and tuned to the stock price of Xiaxin International.

An hour later, everyone had a smile on their faces.

Xiaxin International's share price rose from 20 yuan to 55 yuan in an hour, and its market value rose by 28 billion yuan in an hour, equivalent to more than 4.6 billion US dollars.

Qu Guangfu smiled: "Haha...... It's only been an hour, and it's still going to be a trend. ”

The directors nodded with a smile.

Half a month later!

Several major chip companies in the world seem to be experiencing a storm.

Intel's market capitalization plummeted from $600 billion to $300 billion.

TSMC's market capitalization plummeted from $590 billion to $310 billion.

Samsung Electronics' market capitalization plummeted from $430 billion to $150 billion.

ASML's market capitalization plummeted from $400 billion to $200 billion.

The market value of Xiaxin International soared from $45 billion to $450 billion.

In 2028, Xia Xin International's market value will be 100 billion US dollars, and it was later troubled by ASML and TSMC.

In addition, from the perspective of outsiders, Xia Xin International's crazy behavior, the market value plummeted to $45 billion in more than a year.

And now, because of the emergence of 12nm carbon-based chip lithography machine, the market value of Xiaxin International has counterattacked, and it has risen wildly in half a month.

The market capitalization surpassed ASML, Samsung, TSMC and Intel in one fell swoop.

Become the company with the highest market value in the global chip field.

It has become one of the top 20 enterprises in the world in terms of market capitalization, and it has also become the second largest enterprise in Xia Kingdom.

Everyone was stunned to see this big change in the chip market.

Northern Beauty, White Palace!

The assistant said: "Intel has carried out major layoffs because its market value has fallen too hard, and many of the company's businesses have been cut. ”

"In addition to Intel, many domestic chip manufacturing companies have suffered great losses."

"Bigger companies can hold on, and smaller companies go bankrupt."

"This chip revolution has caused the loss of Beili to reach 500 billion US dollars."

When Xie Lu heard this, his face was very ugly.

500 billion US dollars is already one-fifty-fourth of the annual GDP of the Northern Beauty.

Professor Imaon Kabang of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology predicts that this is just the beginning.

"In the next decade, if we can't regain our position in the chip field, the losses will continue."

"It could end up losing more than two trillion dollars."

"Many chip companies will go out of business, and even companies like Intel will only survive in the future."

"In addition, in addition to Xia Xin International, Xia Guo has given birth to at least two chip manufacturing companies with a market value of more than 100 billion US dollars."

"Also, in the future, Beili Guo will no longer be a chip seller in Xia Guo, and the status of Beili Guo and Xia Guo in chips will be reversed."

"Xia Guo is a chip seller in Beiliguo!"

When Xie Lu heard this, his face became even more ugly.

He was very flustered in his heart, and said, "You can't go on like this, the loss is too great." ”

"This is only the loss on the surface, and the side loss is even greater."

"Many chip companies have gone bankrupt, and the money earned from chips in the future will be greatly reduced."

"The most important thing is that Beili Country can't dominate on chips."

Cymer, Chairman's Office!

The chairman of Cymer is talking to the chairman of ASML.

Cymer is the No. 1 company in North Korea and the No. 1 company in the world.

ASML's lithography machine light source technology has been a collaboration with Cymer in the past.

The chairman of ASML said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Hansen, but our company's cooperation with your company is coming to an end. ”

Chairman Cymer said, "What do you mean? ”

The chairman of ASML said: "That is to say, ASML will not cooperate with your company in the future. ”

"What?" Chairman Cymer's face changed drastically, and he said in surprise: "Don't you want light source technology?" Without light source technology, how do you make a lithography machine? ”

ASML chairman said: "In the future, we will cooperate with Xia Guo's company, Xia Guo's light dragon company also has light source technology. ”

"And the quality of the technology is better than yours."

Chairman Cymer gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I see." ”

He also knows that Guanglong Company is a company invested by Xia Xin International and Ye Fei Science and Technology Research Institute, which mainly researches lithography machines.

The 12nm carbon-based chip lithography machine is this company.

After hanging up the video, Chairman Cymer slammed his fist on the table and said angrily: "Bastard! ”

The Cymer incident is just one of them.

And the influence of Xia Guo's lithography machine is far more than that.

Chip companies around the world have changed the way they cooperated in the past.

In the past, almost all the technology of chips was in the hands of Beili Kingdom.

And now they have a new choice, no longer cooperating with the North Liguo, but with the Xia Kingdom.

First, judging from past events, Xia Guo will definitely not rely on chips to dominate.

Second, Photodragon's lithography machine technology is indeed very good.

Because countries around the world have separated from the North Korea and no longer cooperate with the North Korea country.

This led to the accelerated bankruptcy of the chip industry in Beiliguo.

Many chip companies in Beili have collapsed, and countless people have lost their jobs.

What was originally only a loss of $500 billion has been a loss of more than $200 billion in just two months.

And this is just the beginning, and the losses will continue for a long time.

When Xie Lu and many other people in Beili saw this, they began to panic in their hearts, and they didn't know what would happen if it continued.

At the conference, Xie Lu roared: "We must curb the continued deterioration of the chip industry, and Beili must regain its position as the world's No. 1 chip industry." ”

"Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable."
