ASML had previously ignored the requirements of the security building and eagerly expressed the idea of selling high-end lithography machines to Loongson International, with the most fundamental purpose of making the next research of the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology create resistance, so that it would abandon the research of new lithography machine processes or reduce the investment of resources.

didn't expect that this incident was completely wishful thinking on their part, and they didn't realize that the situation was completely irreversible.

Today is the delivery ceremony of the lithography machine of the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology, which is very important for the global semiconductor field, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a turning point in the transformation of the industry.

In the face of such an important event, how could ASML not pay attention to it.

Therefore, even though there is a time difference between the two places, CEO Peter and technical officer Tonino still choose to stay in the company to access the live broadcast source.

In fact, before watching today's live broadcast, Peter Wen still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

It is believed that Loongson International may purchase his lithography machine to expand the high-end chip production capacity of the wafer factory.

Although this will put considerable competitive pressure on TSMC.

However, in order to maintain ASML's position in the industry, it can only put aside the so-called influence.

However, after listening to Xu Yun's speech in the live broadcast at this moment, a strong anger suddenly appeared in his heart.

I immediately regretted paying attention to this delivery ceremony.

After ASML released its goodwill, Xu Yun still said that he would continue to research the new lithography machine, and also said that it would not take long.

In addition, the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology will quickly produce lithography machines to ensure the production capacity of Loongson International.

This further cut off the possibility of Loongson International buying their lithography machines.

It's really in response to that saying, you ignored my love at the beginning, and tomorrow I will make you unattainable.

With the current 7nm lithography machine process of the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology, coupled with a defect rate of less than 2%, they have already felt very competitive pressure.

If you really conquer the 5nm process or even 3nm, there is no doubt that it will completely surpass them.

At that time, other wafer factories around the world, in order to ensure the performance of their own chips and reduce costs, will definitely choose to buy the lithography machine developed by Xu Yun.

The number of orders they have will plummet.

Unless other fabs are prohibited from purchasing.

But this approach has proven to be counterproductive.

"Starting today, the global semiconductor landscape has changed dramatically."

"There's no way to stop it."

Peterwin looked like his strength had been drained at the moment, and he sat down in his chair with a lonely expression.

I don't know if the words that came out of my mouth were emotion, or I said it with Professor Tonino next to me.

"It's hard for me to believe that this era could give birth to such a gifted genius who can make people unexpectedly perform miracles, and maybe that's a good thing for the whole of human civilization."

Tonino didn't know what was in mind, and replied with a complicated face.

Hearing this, Peterwin fell silent.

He had to admit that what Tonino said was indeed right, Xu Yun conquered the high-end lithography machine manufacturing technology and reduced the defect rate of the chip to two percent.

This was indeed a disaster for ASML, as it completely destroyed the situation in which the company had previously operated.

But if you put the pattern on the entire human civilization, the rapid progress of science and technology is definitely a good thing.

As for what Xu Yun said during the live broadcast, he will not have any doubts now.

As long as Xu Yun participates in the research and development of a new generation of lithography machine technology, then even if it is manufactured next year, he will not feel the slightest surprise.

Because this is the best illustration.

I still remember that when the Academy of Sciences first announced that Xu Yun would take over this project, they were not aware of the danger at all.

is also arrogant that Xu Yun cannot build a high-end lithography machine in a short time.

is now slapped in the face by reality, and it can be regarded as self-reaping.

However, this also made them completely understand that Xu Yun was a special existence.

Its potential is unimaginable.

As the two fell silent in the office for a while, only the sound of the live broadcast remained.

Perhaps because the energy in his heart was completely defeated, Peter Wyn didn't even think about smashing the live broadcast equipment.

And at this moment, Tonino, not knowing what to think, suddenly looked over to Peterwin and said.

"It is a very wrong decision to choose to restrict the sale of high-end lithography machines to Loongson International."

"Those people in the security building are just rat-eyed guys."

Peter Wynn listened to this sentence in his ears, and his face was a little moved, and he paused for a few seconds before he spoke slowly.

"You're right."

If ASML had sold high-end lithography machines to Loongson, so that the other party would not have to worry about not being able to manufacture high-end chips, then it is very likely that it would not have invested so much resources and talents in the research of lithography machines.

In this way, they have always been the world's top semiconductor equipment manufacturing giants.

Although this will put a lot of pressure on those chip companies, it is definitely better than the current situation.

It can be said that to a certain extent, it is they who forced the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology to develop its own high-end lithography machine.

But it's a foregone conclusion, and it's useless to say anything.

Next, the company can only take one step at a time and formulate a response plan in advance after the order reduction.

The thought stopped, and Peterwin seemed to have figured it out, and then he stood up with his hands on the armrests of the seat, took two steps forward, and reached out to pat Tonino's shoulder.

"Let's go back and rest early, we have to adapt to the new semiconductor landscape as soon as possible."

"It's the boss."

Tonino nodded and replied in a deep voice.

The next second, Peter Wen took one last look at Xu Yun in the live broadcast screen, and then turned around and left without looking back.

……

Coincidentally.

Qualcomm CEO Anlenkov, who is far away in Liganifouya, is also paying attention to the delivery ceremony at this time.

But he was in his own home.

In the study, Anlunkov heard Zhou Xueyi announce that he had received an order for Kirin chips from Huawei Technology.

His face also dropped instantly, even more uncomfortable than eating a secret hamburger.

It was precisely in order to block the unicorn that the security building took a series of measures.

I thought that this would completely suppress the signs and ensure the company's authoritative position in the field of high-end chips.

But who would have thought that in just two years, the sprouts would grow into flames.

Even if I wanted to extinguish it, I couldn't find any water that could be used.

At present, the other party not only has its own lithography machine and photoresist, but has also formed a chip manufacturing industry chain.

No matter what measures are taken again, there is no way to stop the Kirin from going online.

Coupled with the regulations they previously issued, it made it very unpleasant to quarrel with many mobile phone manufacturers.

They were forced to join forces and issue a joint statement.

Now that there are Kirin chips, it is even more impossible to purchase them.

The loss of this order is already assured.

"How did things come to this, was it wrong in the first place?"

Anrenkov retracted his gaze in a depressed mood, and a large number of thoughts flashed through his mind.

However, there is no regret medicine sold in the world.

After a while, his face gradually returned to calm, and then he dialed his secretary's phone.

"Inform the company's core personnel to hold a strategic meeting tomorrow morning."

Since they know that the situation is already very unfavorable to them, they can only try to find a solution.

You can't sit back and watch the company's market value shrink.

However, it is certain that the stock price will continue to fall for a long time to come.

"It's the boss."

Almost as soon as Anrenkov's words fell, a sharp female voice came from the microphone.

……

As for the performance of personnel in relevant fields such as Pyotr Wenan Alenkov in the face of the delivery ceremony, Xu Yun, who was still at the ceremony, naturally did not know, but he could basically imagine it.

Next, several reporters asked questions, basically some questions in the research and development process of lithography machines.

Under the answers of Luo Changhui and Hou Shengchang, Xu Yun was quite relaxed.

Soon the less than 20-minute question-and-answer session of reporters ended, and Luo Changhui and Zhou Xueyi also completed the delivery ceremony.

Under normal circumstances, the ceremony can be considered a happy conclusion here.

But because of the existence of the mysterious guest Ren Dong, this delivery ceremony is even more golden.

When the right to speak was handed over to Ren Dong, I saw a mysterious smile on his face facing the camera.

Then he slowly spoke:

"I have one more good news to announce today."

"At this time, Huawei has been developing for many years and cooperated with Deepin Technology to create the domestic industrial software Yinglong EDA officially launched, which will completely break the dilemma that we have no industrial software available."

Although compared with domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machines, the weight of Yinglong EDA is a bit light.

However, because there was no leakage about this matter before, and now I suddenly told that even EDA has been successfully localized, and everyone present is still quite excited.

Anyone who knows the relevant knowledge knows that although EDA is software, it is also a part of chip manufacturing.

The Institute of Optoelectronic Technology has conquered high-end lithography machines, and may be able to use Kirin chips to support it in a short time, but if you want to design a new generation of chips with stronger performance, it will not work without EDA assistance.

Originally, everyone didn't want to spoil everyone's good mood, so they didn't mention it.

I didn't expect Warwick to lay out in this aspect long ago.

It has completely realized the closed loop of the domestic high-end chip manufacturing industry chain.

The key reporters at the scene also keenly captured a key point, that is, this Yinglong EDA also has the participation of deep technology.

In the public's impression, no matter what product has the participation of deep technology, it is equivalent to being marked with high-quality certification, and its quality will definitely not disappoint.

What's more, according to Ren Dong, this is still developed by Huawei for many years.

In the next second, a male reporter from overseas got up and asked: "Chairman Ren, may I ask how the performance of your company's EDA industrial software compares with that of Synscadeng?" ”

Since Yinglong EDA has been launched, then at this time, Ren Dong will definitely not be as conservative as before.

Without much organization of words, he blurted out confidently:

"Our Yinglong EDA improves software autonomy, increases the efficiency of integrated circuit design, and shortens the R&D cycle of chips through the artificial intelligence support of DeepTech."

"Extremely fast data extraction models, hot spot detection in layouts, and timing verification of circuit simulations are guaranteed."

"I can be responsible for saying that the overall performance of our Yinglong EDA has surpassed the products of the giant company of Xinsicadeng, which is far ahead."

As Ren Dong's words fell, many people in the audience showed excitement and surprise in their eyes.

There can only be one possibility for the chairman of Warwick to say this in person.

Yinglong EDA has indeed achieved a leading position in the same product.

After all, there is deep technology behind this industrial software, and if the performance is not good, Ren Dong will never dare to be so sure.

It can be said that this is a thing that deserves everyone's congratulations.

And at this time, Xu Yun, who had been silent for a long time next to him, suddenly opened his mouth and specially added.

"You may not know that our artificial intelligence laboratory under Deepin Technology has cooperated with Huawei to design a smart car chip."

"This chip is named Lingsi, 7nm process."

"At present, these produced chips have been applied to the pioneer Lingyue series of new energy vehicles that will be officially piloted and sold next month, and we have successfully achieved intelligent driving with the help of chips."

"For specific information, you can go to the official website of the pioneer to learn about it, and make an appointment offline."

Xu Yun took the initiative to mention the Lingsi chip, in addition to proving the efficiency and performance of Yinglong EDA for Ren Dong's platform, it can also be regarded as preheating the Lingyue series of solid-state battery new energy vehicles in advance.

Sure enough, after he said this, the reporters in the audience immediately exploded.

Unexpectedly, Yinglong EDA has not just been developed, but has already given birth to excellent products.

In addition, the news of the pioneer solid-state battery new energy vehicle also made everyone excited.

Originally, it was just to report on the delivery ceremony of the domestic lithography machine, but I never thought that there would be a good thing to buy one get two free.

You must know that since the establishment of the pioneer new energy vehicle brand, everyone is looking forward to this first car equipped with solid-state batteries, especially the use of the latest motor technology and shaping fluorocarbon polymer coating materials.

However, there has been no new news since then, which makes many car owners who want to buy a new car hesitate.

Now that we know that we will go on sale next month, this is really exciting news.

Although it is a pilot project in individual cities, it is enough to meet everyone's appetite and expectations.

What's more, according to Xu Yun's words, the artificial intelligence laboratory of Deepin Technology also specially designed an intelligent chip for this car, and even realized intelligent driving.

In the new energy vehicle industry, intelligent driving has always been a technology pursued by major manufacturers.

Among them, Tesla is the most leading.

But I didn't expect that the first to realize the intelligent driving function was a newly established car brand that had not been established for a long time.

In the face of so much inside information, the scene was a little chaotic for a while, and many reporters paid attention to Xu Yun and asked questions.

Want to get more up-to-date news.

"May I ask Professor Xu, what is the extent of the intelligent driving function in your mouth?"

"Can you tell us more about the specific functions of this car?"

"Pioneer new energy vehicles use so many advanced technologies on their first products, what range will the price be approximately?"

"I'll say a few more words, Professor Xu."

……

Xu Yun on the stage listened to the reporters' questions, and felt tired in his heart.

I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic.

However, this also proves from the side that the attention of the pioneers is very high, and I believe that next month's pilot sales will not disappoint.

Of course, Xu Yun couldn't reveal all the suspense now, so he had to respond simply in the face of this situation.

"Regarding the specific situation of the Pioneer Lingyue, you can go to the official website to view the first batch of pilot cities, and I think a press conference will be held as soon as early next month to officially announce all the parameters of the vehicle."

"I hope you can wait patiently for a while, and you won't be afraid of being late for a good meal."

"If I continue to talk about it, the person in charge of the Pioneer will have to blame me about this matter."

Xu Yun said these words in a half-joking way, which made the reporters in the audience laugh out loud, and finally stopped asking about the pioneer Lingyue new energy vehicle, and transferred all his energy to Ren Dong's side to dig up as much news as possible.

The popularity of the main domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine is high enough, and no matter how much it is reported, there is not much content left.

But the two news that broke out at today's delivery ceremony were unknown to the outside world before.

The Pioneer Lingyue is not online for the time being, and there is no way to know the in-depth content.

Then you can only choose Yinglong EDA.

Fortunately, Ren Dong was very happy with the enthusiasm of the reporters, and answered a lot of questions in the following time.

During this period, he did not forget to mention deepin technology many times, and pointed out the powerful role of artificial intelligence models in software development.

In addition, Ren Dong also said that he would arrange personnel to be interviewed and answer questions about Yinglong's EDA.

In this way, the time gradually came to noon, and everyone left the scene one after another with Zhou Xueyi's final speech, and also announced the successful completion of the delivery ceremony of the first domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

And when everyone gradually dispersed, the live broadcast room that was still on was still full.

The audience is still digesting the information received today.

The number of barrages shows no signs of decreasing.

"What kind of fairy day is today, not only is our first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine delivered, Huawei has also launched the far leading Yinglong EDA, and the key is that the solid-state battery new energy vehicle I am most looking forward to will be launched."

"I just quit and took a look, and the official account of Huawei has released the promotion of Yinglong EDA."

"This live broadcast is not in vain, it can be called a grand event in many fields."

"Why are there only five pilot cities in the first batch, and how long will it take to carry out national sales?"

"Recently, I've been hesitating to buy a car first, but now I can finally wait for the pioneer with peace of mind."

"Is what Professor Xu said true, does the pioneer really have intelligent driving functions?"

"The smart chip was specially designed, and it is estimated to be true."

"With so much advanced technology, I'm afraid the price won't be too cheap, right?"

"I'm so happy to be a fellow countryman with Professor Xu, there is actually me in the first batch of pilot cities, and this time I want to say the whole pioneer, and the solid-state battery replacement sites in the city are very complete."

……

It wasn't until the reporters came out of the delivery ceremony that the live broadcast, which lasted for several hours, was also announced.

But there are still many people who choose to stay in the live broadcast room for the time being and continue to discuss the news they got today.

Obviously, he was too emotional, and it was difficult to calm down.

Journalists who can enter the scene to conduct interviews undoubtedly have first-hand news in their hands.

After the delivery ceremony, in order to preempt others to report, it can be said that they didn't even care about eating, and directly wrote the post-script on the spot, and sent it back directly to upload the report after completion.

So when the outside world was eating lunch, I was suddenly shocked to find that the major official media accounts I followed had changed their previous style and launched a diarrhea-like update.

And the content of the report is not the same.

It is no exaggeration to say that these news can be on the top of the hot search list and cause national discussion if they are taken out casually, but now they are inconspicuous in other explosive news.

Many people did not expect that in addition to the semiconductor field, the new energy vehicle industry also ushered in a new earthquake.

And the one who feels the most pressure on this is naturally Tesla.

Previously, because they did not want to accept the unified solid-state battery standard formulated by Deepin Technology to adopt the replaceable mode, they did not announce that their own brand would be equipped with all-solid-state batteries, and still chose to cooperate with Panasonic.

It believes that with its own advanced technology in the field of new energy vehicles, it can make up for the battery gap.

Now the pioneer of the solid-state battery new energy vehicle brand jointly created by Deepin Technology and Ningde BYD has directly realized the intelligent driving technology, which means that they have not even lost the last technical advantage, but they are afraid that the market share they have will gradually be snatched away by the pioneers.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Yun's side originally sent an invitation to Zhou Xueyi and wanted to hold a grand celebration banquet to congratulate the success of the delivery ceremony.

However, in order to return to Jingzhou City as soon as possible, Xu Yun only went over and left halfway.

In the afternoon, the news about the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine and Yinglong EDA and the pioneer Lingyue Automobile is still being reported, and the topic discussion on the whole network can be said to be getting hotter and hotter.

Among them, Qiu Bin, who is already a big UP, saw that his guess had made a mistake.

The first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine was not a 5nm process.

But he's still in a good mood.

Because he found a reason for ASML and other semiconductor giants to nervously make concessions.

It's that chip defect rate of less than two percent.

"This is really amazing, Professor Xu can actually ensure that the defect rate of the chip is less than two percent, no wonder ASML immediately issued an announcement and chose to give in."

"Such good video material, I have to post a few more in the next few days."

In a community in Yangcheng, Qiu Bin sat in front of the computer screen and screamed, but he didn't expect the live broadcast in the morning to give him such a big surprise.

He attributed ASML's concession to the fact that the process level of the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine reached 5 nanometers, and he did not guess the chip defect rate, which shows the difficulty of optimization in this regard.

Even ASML, which is as strong as the world's top giants, guarantees a defect rate of up to 5%.

Xu Yun can achieve less than two percent, which has indeed reached a level that ordinary people can't imagine.

It was true that he did not predict that it was normal.

Fortunately, this delivery ceremony broke out hot news such as Yinglong EDA and intelligent driving technology, and then it was enough for him to update the video of the machine.

——

When the time comes to night, it is dawn for overseas.

Although the news reports on the delivery of lithography machines and Yinglong EDA overseas are not as hot as those in China, they have also successfully caused widespread discussion on many platforms.

Among them, the biggest response is undoubtedly the senior EDA industrial software giants such as Synscad.

Previously, ASML Qualcomm and other companies made concessions without warning, which led them to urgently convene a meeting.

In the end, it was concluded that the impact was not significant, and we would wait and see.

Anyway, in their opinion, although the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology has conquered the manufacturing technology of high-end lithography machines, it does not have the corresponding EDA software.

In some ways, if you want to design a more powerful chip, you can't do without their software.

In this case, they thought that after the delivery ceremony, the security building would release the software restrictions, so that they could still have a stable user base without being affected.

Compared to other companies in this supply chain, the results are arguably the best.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Huawei suddenly announced the launch of Yinglong EDA industrial software at the ceremony, which caught them off guard.

At the same time, I was also faintly worried.

I'm afraid that this is Xu Yun's deliberate backhand, after all, the development of this industrial software has a deep technology figure.

If it is really as Ren Dong said at the ceremony, the comprehensive performance of this Yinglong EDA industrial software is far ahead, it will undoubtedly be nightmare news for them.

If its own EDA industrial software is really replaced, the original market share will inevitably shrink rapidly.

You need to know that these industrial software giants basically occupy more than 90% of the world's EDA market, and who is willing to share the market in their hands if they are used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.

So the first thing they have to determine is whether the Yinglong EDA developed by Huawei is ahead of them.

……

"Where did this Yinglong EDA come from, and why didn't there be any news before?"

In the conference room of the Synopsys headquarters building, Chief Operating Officer Sasin did not hide his anger in front of several senior advisors from several companies.

I can't accept that I haven't been at ease for two days, and such a big thing has happened in the industry.

An almost roaring voice fell through the office, and there was a slight pause for a few seconds before an advisor spoke.

"For the EDA software developed by them, we are constantly paying attention to monitoring, but basically it is very immature and cannot form a threat, as for this Yinglong EDA, it should be secretly developed."

"It was deliberately released at this time, and it should be in conjunction with their first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine."

These words were also recognized by others around them, and they were analyzed as the conversation box was opened.

"According to what we know so far, the development of this EDA is supported by deep technology, and I am afraid that Xu Yun was thinking about this when he decided to develop a lithography machine."

"The other party obviously wants to completely complete the autonomy, and this time he is definitely prepared."

"This man is terrible."

Sasin glanced at the advisor who had been angry with others, and took a deep breath to calm down a little.

Then ask about the most critical things.

"Can anyone tell me how the overall performance of this EDA is, and whether it is ahead of us?"

"The personnel of the technical department are analyzing, and there should be results soon." The advisor in front of him immediately replied.

Hearing this, Sasin had no choice but to temporarily control his temper and patiently wait for the final analysis results of the technical department.

Mainly, it's not clear what the real performance of this EDA software is, and it's certainly impossible for them to listen to all the hype, who knows if there's any deliberate exaggeration.

Even when it comes to deep technology.

Only by understanding the specific situation can we develop the appropriate solution.

If there is exaggeration, then there is nothing to worry about.

Even if they don't do anything, Warwick will reuse their EDA products sooner or later.

Unless you don't want the performance of the chip to increase.

But if they are as far ahead as advertised, they will end up not much better than the rest of the supply chain.

It could be even worse.

In this way, Sasin waited patiently in the conference room with senior consultants from several companies for the final result.

During this period, although the mood became more and more anxious, in order not to cause panic, I had to forcibly keep calm.

After about half an hour, I saw a technician hurriedly push open the door of the conference room from the outside, and even forgot the etiquette of knocking.

Of course, at this time, Sasin was not in the mood to care about this trivial matter, and after seeing the figure of the other party, he stood up abruptly and hurriedly asked about the specific situation.

"Is the analysis coming out?"

"Say it quickly."

"What is the overall performance of this EDA?"

In the face of the boss's inquiry, the technician did not dare to hesitate or delay.

The next second, I will truthfully report what I have learned.

"According to the analysis of our technical department, this EDA contains intelligent modules with a high degree of autonomy, and also uses cloud technology to improve the efficiency of circuit production and save chip design time."

"Compared with our products, they can speed up the completion of the project and reduce the design cost."

"In addition, the software includes some proven, mature modular designs that can be applied directly to the chip, which can effectively avoid the huge sunk costs faced in chip design."

"In short, this is a very mature and complete EDA industrial software."

This designer seems to like Yinglong EDA more, and his eyes are getting brighter and brighter when he talks about it.

It seems to be attracted by some of the features inside.

But when it came to the last sentence, his tone was noticeably smaller.

Because he noticed Sassin's gloomy face.

This result is definitely not what Sasin wants to see, but things are not going for the better.

After hearing this, he still didn't want to believe it, so he immediately raised his eyes to look at the technician in front of him and asked, "Are you sure these are true?" ”

"It's all true."

The technician nodded in reply, and then handed over the report in his hand.

If Sasin could still deceive himself just now, then after seeing the data in the report, he could only accept that the Yinglong EDA developed by Warwick was already far ahead of them.

Although this is a very heavy topic.

After nearly half a minute of silence, he seemed to have made some kind of decision.

Raising his gaze to look at the company's senior consultant in front of him, he spoke in a deep voice about his next plan.

"From now on, all usage restrictions on our products will be lifted and free cycle compensation will be issued."

"In the future, our biggest opponent may be this Yinglong EDA."

After Sahin finished speaking, the whole person sat back on the chair like an eggplant beaten by frost, compared with the state full of confidence a few days ago, it was like two people.

I didn't expect that after these days, they still had to make the same concessions as ASML.

(End of chapter)
