Chapter 280: The Light of National Enterprises
However, when the four major web portals and major news newspapers reported that Sugon Technology cooperated with Xia Ke Institute to develop lithography machines.
As the strongest news and propaganda channel in Daxia, TTCV New Literature Network also spent more than 30 seconds reporting on this matter.
According to our reporter...... Sugon Technology and Xia Academy of Sciences held a joint press conference to announce that they will spend 3 billion summer yuan per year to develop the fifth generation immersion lithography machine......"
It can only be said that TTCV is worthy of TTCV, and this news and propaganda ability is quite powerful and quite terrifying.
Many people didn't know about this before, but at this time, after the news was broadcast on TTCV's new article broadcast.
At least one-third of the people in Daxia know that Shuguang Technology spends 3 billion yuan a year to develop lithography machines!
I also knew about the cooperation between Dawning Technology and the Xia Academy of Sciences, and then the Xia Academy of Sciences dispatched several academicians, professors and hundreds of R&D personnel.
In the face of such a huge amount of money and such a strong R&D team, many people in China are quite confident in whether the lithography machine can be landed.
Even they began to look forward to the joint R&D team of Shuguang Technology and Xia Academy of Sciences to quickly get a lithography machine, break the blockade of foreign science and technology as soon as possible, and let Daxia use 90nm mobile phone chips as soon as possible.
Therefore, at this time, the people in China applauded the cooperation between Shuguang Technology and Xia Keyuan, and then took out 3 billion to develop lithography machines.
They called Lin Chen and Shuguang Technology a good job, and claimed that Shuguang Technology is a truly responsible and responsible people's enterprise.
It's not like a company that only thinks about making money, and doesn't think about spending money to develop core technologies to break the blockade of foreign science and technology.
That enterprise can be called a people's enterprise, which is simply an insult to the people's enterprise.
At this time, after seeing that Shuguang Technology made money, he didn't think about enjoying it, but took out a large amount of profit funds to develop lithography machines and completely break the blockade of foreign lithography machines.
It can be said that after this incident, after this round of TTCV news, domestic newspapers, television stations and even Internet media reports.
At this time, in the eyes of the people of Daxia, the image of Shuguang Technology is infinitely high, and people have called such an enterprise as Shuguang Technology a real national enterprise, a national enterprise that asks for the country's life, and a proud enterprise of the people!
At this time, if Lin Chen came to the streets and alleys of Daxia, he would find that the people were full of praise and support when they talked about Shuguang Technology.
When many people talk about Dawning Technology, they also directly say that if they want to buy mobile phones in the future, they will definitely give priority to the mobile phones of Dawning Technology and Rice Mobile, a subsidiary of Dawning Technology.
So at this time, the prestige of Dawning Technology in the Great Xia range is unprecedentedly high, and it really has a group of die-hard fans.
With the high prestige at this time and the brand of the people's enterprise, the products launched by Shuguang Technology in the future will be of average technical quality.
But with the high prestige and the brand of the people's enterprise, the people of Daxia will definitely give priority to the products of Shuguang Technology in the end!
That's the intangible benefit!
This intangible benefit will yield a steady stream of benefits not only now, but also in the distant future.
Of course, when the media and the people were supporting and applauding Shuguang Technology within the scope of Daxia, public opinion overseas was not so good.
"Is it enough for Daxia to spend $360 million to develop lithography machines?"
That's the headline in the Silicon Valley Daily.
In this article, they focus on whether Sugon Technology's $360 million is enough to develop a fifth-generation immersion lithography machine.
In the end, the Silicon Valley Daily article concluded that $360 million was not enough to develop a fifth-generation immersion lithography machine.
If you want to successfully conquer the 5th generation immersion lithography machine, you must at least be prepared to burn billions of dollars, which will take three or four years, and this money will never be available from Shuguang Technology!
This is a fairly professional analytical article.
Through the analysis of the R&D funds and R&D scale of ASML and TSMC in the 5th generation immersion lithography machine from various angles, we roughly estimated how much it would cost to bypass patent barriers.
Directly using detailed data, we deduced how much it would cost to win the 5th generation immersion lithography machine, and how much time it would take in total.
Under this article, many overseas readers are also familiar with the relevant information of the 5th generation immersion lithography machine.
I am not optimistic about the "risky behavior" of Shuguang Technology and Xia Keyuan, and I want to develop the 5th generation immersion lithography machine for only 360 million US dollars, which is simply a joke.
Therefore, after reading this article, after learning how difficult it is to develop the 5th generation immersion lithography machine, they are not optimistic or even disdainful of the 5th generation immersion lithography machine developed by Dawning Technology and Xia Academy of Sciences.
At the same time, when the Silicon Valley Daily reported the relevant news, the heads of other semiconductor industries around the world also expressed their views on this matter.
For example, it is not a super lithography machine giant now, but Wen Kening, the head of ASML, who will become a super lithography machine giant in the future, directly and publicly ridiculed Shuguang Technology for absolutely no possibility of successful research and development.
Wen Kening, the head of ASML, claimed that the fifth-generation immersion lithography machine could not be won by a mere $350 million in R&D funds a year.
If it was possible before they launched the immersion lithography machine, but now after the introduction of the immersion lithography machine by ASML, it is several times more difficult to develop the 5th generation immersion lithography machine.
Because Daxia's lithography machine R&D team needs to spend more energy and cost to bypass ASML's technology patent wall, the cost will be much higher than before.
In this case, Wen Kening directly mockingly claimed that "the Daxia lithography team can't get the 5th generation immersion lithography machine technology in ten years!" ”
He also claimed that the Daxia lithography team was destined to do useless work, and advised Shuguang Technology to give up as soon as possible, so as not to spend billions of dollars without results.
Of course, among them, Wen Kening, the head of ASML, also took the opportunity to promote the world's first immersion lithography machine, TWINSCANAT:1150i.
Claiming that ASML's lithography machine is the world's first, and global semiconductor manufacturers are welcome to purchase ASML's lithography machines.
In this regard, these sales pitches were naturally ignored by reporters.
So soon, when the interview with Wen Kening, the head of ASML, was published by the reporter and reprinted back to Daxia, it directly caused an uproar in Daxia.
ASML actually looked down on Daxia, thinking that Daxia would not be able to build a fifth-generation lithography machine within ten years, and this attitude of looking down on people naturally caused a sea of anger.
Under this anger, ASML was naturally scolded in China, but unfortunately this actually had no impact on ASML.
Because ASML sells lithography machines, this lithography machine is directly sold to chip manufacturers, but it will not be affected by public opinion in the outside world. (End of chapter)
