Chapter 131 Lighting the Dawn of Domestic Chip Manufacturing
Wang Yi wiped his sweat, closed the door vigorously, started the car, unscrewed the cold air, and a set of operations went smoothly.
"Wu Maozhe's idiotic line, he will serve the street sooner or later, and lose his family business."
He scolded angrily.
In order to reduce the production cost of Moss's second-generation smart speakers, Wang Yi has been running between major suppliers for half a month.
Based on the sales of the first generation of Moss loudspeakers, he took advantage of large orders to get a lower purchase price, and manufacturers of speakers, sensors, chips and audio amplifiers have signed new contracts with Moss Electronic Technology.
The manufacturing cost dropped by 15 yuan, which reduced the pressure on the sales side.
Only on the issue of the procurement of the touch screen, he ran into trouble, and the other party did not enter the oil and salt, and he was stunned and did not agree to reduce the price.
"Mr. Wang, don't be sorry, labor costs are rising, and the prices of glass, conductors and transparent electrodes are also soaring, 70 yuan a piece, I can't do it."
Wu Maozhe, the general manager of Yibin Electronics, with a cynical smile on his face, directly rejected his offer, and bit the supply price of 80 yuan for a single piece.
Although he shouted a purchase contract for 10 million pieces, Wu Maozhe remained unmoved.
Yangcheng territory, has the ability to supply, and can ensure the quality of the screen is only a handful of manufacturers, among which Yibin Electronics is the most strong.
Bypassing Yibin, there are two small suppliers to choose from: Ruicheng and Longye.
The reason why Wang Yi did not contact these two companies at the first time was because their prices were not cheaper than Yibin, and they had to lose slightly in terms of production and manufacturing technology.
Chip design, processing, etching, photolithography, chemical etching and other steps can not only reflect the level of manufacturing, but also reduce the cost of a single screen through large-scale production.
This point, Yibin is the best, and he regards it as his first choice!
"Now the big ones don't come out, let the small ones come out to the top, call you old beans to come out and talk."
Wang Yi's anger rose on the spot, pointing at Wu Maozhe and scolding.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, the person in charge of this business is a contemptible person, and whoever talks about it is the same."
Wu Maozhe replied arrogantly.
Yibin Electronics relied on MP3 and MP4 screen manufacturing to start, and was fortunate to catch up with the golden period of vigorous development of smart machines and Sanzhai machines, with a total annual production capacity of more than 50 million pieces.
Sold at home and abroad, supply is not demanding!
The founder Wu Yibin has been unwell for the past two years, and the management of the company has basically been handed over to the eldest son, and part of it is taken over by the younger son Wu Maozhe.
"Take a step at a time, go back to Lao Chen first."
Wang Yi said in his heart.
"Buzz~!"
Seeing the phone vibrating, he pressed the answer button: "Hey, Chen Gong, I'm on my way back."
What? Is the boss coming? Which boss? β
Wang Yi was confused, he was a native of Yangcheng, and he entered Moss Electronics through recruitment and had never been to the headquarters of Yancheng.
In his eyes, CEO Zhang Nan is the boss, CFO Zhou Zi is the boss, and Chen Heyu is also the boss.
"Of course, it's the big boss Mr. Chen, hurry back to the company and save yourself a bad impression of you."
Chen Yong reminded.
Early in the morning, he received a notice from the headquarters that Mr. Chen was going to come to Yangcheng to inspect, and when he got the news, the big boss was about to get off the plane, so he hurriedly arranged for the driver and called Wang Yi again.
"Okay, Lao Chen, I'll invite you to a big dinner another day."
Wang Yi replied with a smile, the foot that stepped on the accelerator increased the strength of three points.
When he returned to the company, the time was close to 12 o'clock, and in a hurry, he ran to the office with his head down.
"Whew~Whew!"
"Knock knock!"
He paused to breathe and took a few deep breaths before he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
There was a reply from inside the room, and the voice sounded unusually young.
"Crunch!"
Wang Yi pushed open the door and saw only Chen Yong and a young man, and his imaginary boss was not at the scene.
"Huh? Chen Gong, what about the boss? Gone so soon? β
He asked, wondering.
"Ahem."
Chen Yong pretended to cough lightly twice, staring at Wang Yi desperately to give him a look.
"Got a cold? If you want me to say, you have to exercise this body, yo, your nephew? β
Wang Yi sat down with a big grin, took out a cigarette and lit it, looked at Chen Heyu and asked.
Chen Yong shook his head helplessly, and explained to Chen Heyu: "Lao Wang has this temperament, don't be surprised. β
Boss?
This young man?
The cigarette in Wang Yi's mouth fell to the ground with a "click", rubbed his hands, stood up nervously, and stumbled and said: "Hello Mr. Chen, I am Wang Yi, you can call me Xiao Wang." β
"Wang Yi, the factory is well managed, and Mr. Zhang praised you at the company's weekly meeting."
Chen Heyu smiled and didn't care about him.
The ecological environment of the factory and the company is very different, he can't ask the other party to wear a tie and speak a foreign language, as long as he can steadily improve the production capacity and speaker quality, then the other party is a good management talent.
He looked at it, Wang Yi was tall, maybe he had more entertainment, his cheeks were fat, and he smiled innocently, like a big man in the north.
Wang Yi is also peeking at Chen Heyu, good guy, too young, no wonder he admits his mistake.
In addition to his handsome and tough face, a pair of eyes are particularly deep, and when he looks at it, he feels that his thoughts are seen through.
"The boss has won the award, and the leaders of the headquarters are well-organized, so I will work hard a little bit."
Wang Yi replied with a smile, sleek and sophisticated.
"Mr. Wang, you can arrange it at noon, find a special restaurant, this is the first time I have come to Yangcheng."
Chen Heyu waved his hand and ordered.
"Okay, boss, don't worry, I'm a gourmet."
Wang Yi straightened up and patted his round belly.
The three of them called a driver, drove the company's business car, and drove slowly to the nearby commercial street.
"Mr. Wang, tell me about the situation of the factory."
On the way, Chen Heyu asked.
"Boss, at present, there are six departments in the factory, Chen Yong is responsible for the R&D and design department, I am mainly responsible for the purchasing, production and quality management department, and the personnel and finance are dispatched and managed by the headquarters.
The number of general workers is 2,680, and the monthly labor cost is 13 million;
The maximum production capacity is 50,000 units per day......"
Wang Yi is not an idler sitting in the office drinking tea, he is in charge of the three core departments alone, and he can open his mouth to the core data of the factory.
Chen Heyu nodded when he heard this, the average monthly salary of ordinary workers is less than 5,000, which sounds like a lot in 2014, but this is paid more than 200 overtime hours every month.
The basic salary is 1500 yuan/month, 8 hours during the day, 8 yuan per hour, generally 2 to 3 hours of overtime from Monday to Friday, overtime pay is 12 yuan/hour, and overtime is 16 yuan/hour on Saturday and Sunday.
This is the reason why most workers oppose the eight-hour workday, overtime is to make money, and in order to support their families, they can only "work overtime voluntarily".
"Let's improve the treatment of workers, the basic salary will be opened to 2,300 yuan, the working hours will be increased by 30%, and the basic pension, medical and unemployment insurance will be bought for them......"
Chen Heyu was silent for a moment and sighed, there are too many hard-working people, and he can only do what he can in a small area.
"Mr. Chen, if you do this, the cost of employment may double."
Wang Yi did not object, his parents were both workers, and they knew the difficulties behind the hard life of ordinary workers.
"The cost is a small problem, and the overtime hours should be limited, so you can give me a plan as soon as possible."
Chen added that if he didn't limit overtime, his strategy would only hurt more people.
For the sake of money, workers will only work more crazy overtime.
"Okay, I understand."
Wang Yi agreed, knowing that Chen Heyu was not on a whim, but really planned to improve his treatment and not engage in sweatshops.
"How is the procurement cooperation progressing? Chen Gong said, you are busy negotiating recently, planning to reduce production costs. β
Chen Heyu continued to ask.
"The other accessories have been negotiated, and the overall cost can be reduced by 15 yuan, but the display screen is a little troublesome."
Seeing that the big boss asked, Wang Yi didn't dare to hide it, explained the ins and outs, and focused on the management of Yibin Electronics.
"Then meet me and make an appointment for me tomorrow."
Chen Heyu said in a deep voice, unable to figure out the other party's thoughts, the order of 10 million pieces of future science and technology was thrown out and a bunch of people came out to grab food.
Yibin would refuse?
Who gave him courage!
β¦β¦
The other end.
Yibin Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. Headquarters.
"Smack!" Boom!
The old man angrily slapped Wu Maozhe and said angrily: "How long are you going to mess around?" Do you know what the order of 10 million pieces means to Yibin? β
Wu Maozhe covered his face, held his head high and said stiffly: "If you have the ability, fire me, I don't want to stay in this broken company at all." β
"The ...... of the Loser"
Wu Yibin was so angry that his mind was dizzy, and at this moment, he really regretted calling his youngest son back.
"Dad, don't be angry, Ah Zhe must have his considerations."
The eldest brother Wu Maosheng persuaded.
"You go and contact Mr. Wang of Moss Electronics for me, and after negotiating this order, you can go wherever you want."
Wu Yibin rubbed his stinging head, glanced at his stunned little son, and his heart was full of despair.
"That's what you said, I hope you don't break your word."
Wu Maozhe left the office in tears, having no attachment to the multibillion-dollar company.
He thought of the fake face of "big brother", and he felt nauseous, he really couldn't play the struggle for power, he just wanted to go back to MVIDIA and continue to work on chips.
The story of the head of Yibin Electronics, like the clichΓ© plot in the TV series, came to Yangcheng to work hard when he was young, and founded Yibin Electronics from scratch with his wife, and became bigger and bigger, accumulating billions of wealth in just ten years.
His wife suffered too much when she was young, and she died early, leaving behind an only son, Wu Maozhe.
Who would have thought that Wu Yibin also had an ex-wife and son, and after his wife passed away, he directly took Wu Maosheng back to the Wu family, and intended to let him join the company's management.
The young and vigorous Wu Maozhe quarreled with him for this and chose to study abroad, and he went for ten years.
Last year, he finally coaxed his youngest son back from the beautiful country for physical reasons, and wanted him to inherit part of the family business as a way to make up for it.
As a result, the youngest son didn't appreciate it at all, and he was not interested in inheriting his family business, so he was in charge of the business, and he was messing around as a whole.
This time he actually offended such a big buyer, so that he finally understood that the well-behaved son who shouted "Dad" when he was a child could never go back.
That night, Wang Yi received a phone call from Wu Maozhe, asking him to talk about the procurement contract, and hung up the phone after speaking.
"This girl, was she pumped by his old man, why is her spirit so unstable."
β¦β¦
The next day, Banxi Restaurant.
Chen Heyu looked at Wang Yi and seemed to ask: "Is Yangcheng so wild when it comes to business?" Choosing a teahouse? β
"Boss, the youngest son of the Wu family, I don't think my brain is normal."
Wang Yi smiled awkwardly.
"Let's go, let's see if he's a human or a trick."
Chen Heyu strode forward and walked towards the agreed private room.
Pushing open the old wooden door, I saw a middle-aged man in a straight suit, in his early thirties, with an elegant appearance, and the person with a confused brain in Wang Yi's mouth, it was difficult to match the number.
"You are?"
Wu Maozhe wondered.
"The boss of Future Technology, Chen Heyu, met for the first time, and I was fortunate to meet."
Chen Heyu said lightly.
"Didn't Mr. Wu say yesterday that you are willing to give me a chance if my boss is in person?"
Wang Yi stepped out from behind him and sneered.
Yibin Electronics is strong, but it is not enough to see it in front of Chen Heyu, and it can be talked about if it can be discussed, and it is not a big deal to spend money to acquire a display manufacturer.
With his support, Wang Yi was obviously full of confidence, and he replied in person, which can be regarded as revenge for yesterday.
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Chen, I apologize to the two of you, I was wrong yesterday."
In order to escape from Yangcheng, Wu Maozhe was extremely polite today.
Wang Yi: "??? β
Chen Heyu: "??? β
"Mr. Wang's price, I agree on behalf of Yibin, if there is no problem, you can sign the contract now."
Wu Maozhe saw that the two of them were stunned, and said to himself.
"I didn't say that you have to use Yibin Electronics' display screen, in Yangcheng, maybe you are the leader, but looking at the whole country, Moss is not the only alternative."
Chen Heyu put up the shelf.
β65γβ
Wu Maozhe said casually.
"Mr. Wang, let's go, it seems that Mr. Wu has not talked about the sincerity of cooperation."
Chen Heyu stood up and prepared to leave.
It's unlucky!
No wonder Lao Wang can't talk about it, it turns out that the person in charge of Yibin is really a psychopath and takes the initiative to reduce the price? No company can do such a stupid thing.
"60, this is the reserve price, Mr. Chen walked out of this door, don't want to get this price from me again."
Wu Maozhe gritted his teeth and said sharply.
The assistant next to him widened his eyes, this contract is signed, and he must not be fired immediately when he goes back.
"Mr. Wu, don't you play so big, okay?"
The female assistant said softly, trying to awaken the leader's reason.
Wu Maozhe ignored his words.
Chen Heyu looked at Wang Yi and saw his faint nod, so he sat down and asked the legal counsel of both parties to start drafting the contract.
Only he and Wu Maozhe were left in the room, sitting together drinking tea.
The rest sign the contract in the private room next door.
"Mr. Chen, I have heard your rumors and envy you very much, you can do what you want.
It's not that I'm mentally abnormal, I just want to leave Yibin too much. β
Wu Maozhe smiled bitterly, showing a suppressed and painful look, he wanted to find someone to talk to.
"Oh, Mr. Wu, let's talk about it."
Chen Heyu picked up the tea bowl and took a sip gently, the tea leaves in the south have a unique taste.
Wu Maozhe lowered his head and muttered softly, telling him a little story.
From his point of view, narrating the life of a scumbag, Wu Yibin obviously has a wife and children, and deceived his mother when he was working in Yangcheng, and when he was young, his mother knew the truth.
He was depressed all day, his health was not good, and he died within a few years, and he blamed it all on his father.
"Then you should compete with Wu Maosheng for the inheritance, after all, the company also has half of your mother's hard work."
After listening to this, Chen Heyu replied, a little unable to understand his brain circuit.
"The old man wants to give me half of the family property, I don't want it, these are originally mine, and it seems to be pity to share half of me, I would rather support myself, rely on chip design ability, in a beautiful country, I can have no worries about food and clothing."
Wu Maozhe sneered.
"Then your cheap big brother must be happy to death, with a brother like you."
Chen Heyu was speechless, buddy, haven't you watched the Hong Kong Island wealthy palace fighting drama to think of such a naΓ―ve revenge.
"I'm just going to make the old man guilty for the rest of his life."
Wu Maozhe said coldly.
"I think you are destined to be disappointed, your old man will be full of grandchildren in the future, Cheng Huan knees, how can I have time to think of you."
Chen Heyu saw that the other party helped him save 200 million funds, and patiently persuaded him.
ββ¦β¦β
Wu Maozhe didn't know how to answer, he felt that what Chen Heyu said seemed to make sense.
"And your advice?"
Wu Maozhe asked shamelessly.
"Of course you want to take control of Yibin and kick your eldest brother away, do you still have to think about it?"
Chen Heyu somewhat believed that he was a technician, and his brain naturally lacked experience in struggle.
"You just said that you still understand chip design?"
He asked.
"Well, the former MVIDIA chief chip design engineer, I originally planned to return to the beautiful country after finishing this business."
Wu Maozhe nodded.
"Talking about chips, I'm interested in that."
Chen Heyu was interested and wanted to see if he was bragging.
"Mr. Chen, chip design is a complex technology, and I don't know where to start if you ask me so."
Wu Maozhe scratched his head and replied.
"Interconnect model, talk about that."
Chen Heyu squinted his eyes and replied that he has certain ambitions for chips, but this project is too big, even if he has a system, he is not confident in developing a domestic chip.
Chip design, chip processing, material technology, testing technology, electronic device manufacturing technology, packaging technology, each category contains several or even dozens of professional technologies.
Lithography machines, etching machines, chemical vapor deposition equipment, and ion implantation equipment are not things that can be done in a short time.
"Mr. Chen still understands this?"
Wu Maozhe was surprised, Chen Heyu was able to ask this question, which already showed his level.
"The core architecture of Moss Ai, I wrote!"
Chen Heyu gave him a blank look, he hadn't been underestimated for a long time.
"Then I'll talk about it, the interconnection line is the physical connection between different electronic devices inside the chip, and it is also a component of the chip circuit, and there are three conventional models.
Transmission line, capacitance distribution, and inductance distribution models, as well as more complex reflection, cross-coupling ......"
Chen Heyu's mental power is strong, and he can instantly add the knowledge that the other party has said to his mind.
"Ding! System Entry Skills: Chip Design! β
This trip to Yangcheng, he can be regarded as earning!
Wu Maozhe's ability to elicit a systematic response just by dictating shows that he is at least a genius in the field of chip design.
"Mr. Wu, are you interested in joining Shanhai? Make Huaguo's own chips. β
Chen Heyu was excited to invite.
At this moment, all of Wu Maozhe's problems and abnormalities dissipated, and they were replaced by the light of the big guy.
"Mr. Chen, didn't you persuade me to go back and fight for the family property?"
Wu Maozhe was stunned.
Besides, there are many problems in chip research and development, and there is no corresponding industrial chain, so how easy is it to make domestic chips?
"What's the point of that little possessions? Join Future Technology, let's make chips together is cool enough.
I started doing artificial intelligence, and a bunch of people called me crazy, and now what? β
Chen Heyu said with a smile, as if he saw his thoughts, and blocked his mouth in advance.
"Let me think about it?"
Wu Maozhe replied weakly.
