Chapter 343 Heavy Punch, Dawning Semiconductor Press Conference Held!
When Sugon Technology announced the corresponding sales performance and profit performance, it directly shocked the world.
After all, in the past 5 months, Dawning Technology has steadily sold Dawning S2 smartphones and a variety of mid-range mobile phones for 5 months as the king of the ridge.
Therefore, the results announced by Sugon Technology in mid-January 2005 naturally caused an uproar around the world.
Terrifying sales performance and amazing profits, and finally coupled with the announcement of the year-end dividend, the stock price of Shuguang Technology also ushered in a round of soaring.
The market value of Dawning Technology has also soared from about $246 billion to $270 billion, which can be said to be only $10 billion short of the market value of Weisoft.
However, Lin Chen sees the stock price and market value very openly, not to mention that the market value has risen to $270 billion, even if it rises to $500 billion?
After all, if Lin Chen doesn't want to sell his shares, the stock price will not affect him much, but the higher the stock price, the better it is for Shuguang Technology.
Because the higher the stock price, the more attention it has, and the safer it is, the less dare it play any small tricks.
Therefore, there are advantages to going public, and if you don't go public, it is really difficult to sell mobile phones so safely to make money.
Otherwise, according to the usual situation, the big black hand should have pressed on Dawning Technology at this time.
But gossip, in the next February, Dawning Technology and other companies seemed relatively calm, and the following March, April, and May were the same.
However, when the time came to the beginning of June, Sugon Semiconductor sent 500 press conference invitations to the global media, and the title of the invitation letter was "Invite them to witness history"!
Naturally, the more than 500 mainstream media outlets were quite excited about this, because they knew that something big was about to happen.
Although they were invited this time by a little-known company, Dawning Semiconductor is a chip production company of the Dawning system.
Obviously, this press conference is not simple, and a big news that is about to shock the world will be born in this press conference.
As a result, the more than 500 media outlets that received the invitation naturally sent their reporters to Tianjin in the summer to prepare for the press conference that was destined to cause a sensation around the world.
Of course, there are many reporters who come uninvited, and for these reporters, Sugon Semiconductor naturally readily agrees, and there is nothing that is not allowed.
So, when the time came to June 7, 2005, the press conference was officially held.
Speaking of June 7, three years ago, Lin Chen officially sold refurbished mobile phones, and after three years, Lin Chen finally handed over a satisfactory answer.
Of course, no need to mention that at this time, in the Tianijin Gymnasium, nearly 1,000 domestic and foreign reporters and thousands of guests gathered here, and they were bored guessing the content of this press conference.
"What exactly is Dawning Semiconductor going to release this time?"
At the scene, a slender European and American female reporter asked about her fellow reporters.
"I don't know, the last time Shuguang Semiconductor held a press conference, it was the news that the chip production line was completed at the end of last year.
Is it necessary to announce the news that they are going to build a new chip factory this time? ”
At this time, the answer to the European and American female reporter was a short reporter from an island country, and his logo seemed to be a reporter from the island country Tokyo i Daily.
However, in the face of his speculation, a reporter from the cold country who was also short at the scene shook his head slightly, and then expressed his opinion:
"I don't think it's going to be a new chip factory, after all, with the scale of their current chip factory capacity, I feel like it's completely enough.
You must know that they now have 4 8-inch wafer factories and multiple 350nm, 180nm, 150nm, and 130nm production lines.
Although they are a little behind without a 12-inch fab, there is no essential difference between an 8-inch wafer and a 12-inch wafer.
8-inch wafers can also produce high-precision chips, but the production efficiency and cost are not as good as those of 12-inch wafers.
Therefore, their production capacity should be enough, and they should not continue to expand their production capacity. ”
Hearing this, a reporter from Singapore also spoke:
"I think so, after all, they are now the world's second largest chip foundry, and their chip production capacity can also rank in the top 10, so there should be no need to continue to expand production capacity."
"No, I think the current production capacity of Sugon Technology may be too insufficient."
At this time, it was a young reporter from Daxia who spoke, and when he saw this Daxia reporter looking at him in surprise, he said with a smile:
"Dawning Technology has entered the computer industry, a computer contains CPU chips, graphics card chips, south bridge chips, north bridge chips, sound card chips, network card chips, power chips, display chips......
It can be said that a computer uses up at least 11 large chips, and in addition, Shuguang mobile phones, rice mobile phones, and chip foundry businesses also need to swallow up huge production capacity.
In this case, it's hard to say whether they want to build a new chip production line, but I personally think they will definitely build a new fab.
Under this huge demand, their wafer production capacity must be seriously insufficient, and I feel that they need to build at least two 12-inch wafer fabs or four 8-inch wafer fabs to meet the demand. ”
Hearing this, the European and American female reporter who was the first to ask nodded slightly, and then said thoughtfully:
"Listening to you say this, I do feel that the wafers of Dawning Semiconductor are indeed a little insufficient, but why hasn't there been news of the lack of wafers in Dawning Semiconductor?"
In this regard, the Daxia reporter replied with a smile:
"It's very simple, wafers are not chips, there are many manufacturers who can produce wafers in the world, if it is not enough, just buy wafers from outside, the disadvantage is that it is a little more expensive than their own production.
And isn't the main profit of Zhongxin International Company in the south to sell wafers? Just buy it from them, so Dawning Semiconductor will not be unable to produce chips due to lack of wafers. ”
"I see."
The European and American female reporter nodded slightly, and then looked at the Daxia reporter with admiration.
And in the following time, the reporters on the scene also continued to chat with each other.
And the guests at the scene also sat down one after another, so when the time came to 10 o'clock in the morning, there was a sudden commotion near the entrance, because Lin Chen entered with a bunch of bigwigs.
At this time, among the people led in by Lin Chen, most of the overseas reporters were ignorant, and of course, the vast majority of Daxia reporters were also ignorant.
Because except for a few people here who are well-known figures, the vast majority of people they don't know, and they don't know who those people are and what merits they have.
