Chapter 234 The order of 100 lithography machines is shocking, and Jiuding Ji lands on Netflix!

Windmill Country.

AMLS headquarters.

As soon as Meswell, who is in charge of the global sales business line, walked into the office and sat down, a subordinate rushed over and said excitedly: "Boss, there is a semiconductor company in Yazhou that wants to order 100 lithography machines for ArF light sources. ”

β€œWhat? You repeat, how many units? ”

Mesville was visibly stunned, a little incredulous.

The company's production capacity in a quarter is only 30 units, and the other party actually wants 100 units, which is their output for ten months.

"100 units! This is a company called Shanhai Microelectronics, and the parent company behind it is Future Technology, which is very strong. ”

Addison explained.

"Is there a requirement for the delivery time? Which device model is the specific one? ”

Meswell asked.

At the beginning of 2015, since the top three major shareholders of Ames were all beautiful countries, he needed to consider the influence of the board.

The other party asked for the delivery of 40% of the equipment in the order, the model designation NXT 1950i, by October.

The second batch of equipment will be delivered in March next year. ”

Addison replied.

"The production capacity can keep up, but Future Technology is a Chinese enterprise, and the order amount is too large, so I need to report to the management for a second confirmation."

Meswell muttered for a few seconds before replying.

"Okay, but Boss, I need to warn you that there is a Chinese businessman who seems to be their purchasing broker, and at the same time as contacting us, he is also in contact with Mapping Lithography and Aiwande."

Addison shrugged his shoulders and reminded.

"I will give you an answer as soon as possible, and let my colleagues in Yazhou District stabilize each other first."

Meswell frowned and said in a deep voice.

The price of one NXT 1950i lithography machine is about 45 million euros, and 100 units is 4.5 billion euros, which is enough to double the company's sales this year!

You know, in 2014, a total of 122 lithography machines were exported, and the total revenue was only 5.8 billion euros!

Thinking that after the order was completed, he could get a high bonus and stock dividends, and he immediately reported the matter to the board of directors.

……

"100 NXT 1950i lithography machines, where is the chip process of Huaguo?"

As soon as the directors of AMES received the news, they immediately held a meeting to discuss it.

"Just 28 nanometers! It is said to be their latest R&D, but in fact, the Twinscan NXT 1050 can meet their production needs. ”

One of the directors laughed loudly.

Huaguo's chip process was more than ten years behind, and even if it now has a 28nm mass production process, it is still looked down upon by them.

"Anyway, this is a sky-high order, eating it is beneficial to the development of the company, and you can also get huge benefits, and now the question is whether to agree to this cooperation?"

A director from the beer country interrupted the sarcastic remarks and asked with a stiff face.

"I don't agree, the production capacity of 100 lithography machines will greatly shake Sanxing's position in the Yazhou chip market."

Suddenly, a man with a Yazhou face raised his voice in disagreement.

"Seconded!"

Another middle-aged man of Chinese descent followed closely behind, protesting loudly.

Ames's shareholding structure is extremely dispersed, in addition to the investment institutions of the beautiful country, Sanxing and Wanji are also one of the shareholders, in order to continue to harvest Huaguo's mid-range chip market, of course they are unwilling.

"My opinion is to sell to the other party!"

A director, who represents the interests of the Black Rock Group, raised his voice and drowned out all opposing voices.

"What's your reason? Let's talk about it. ”

The director of CR Capital asked expressionlessly, he is the representative of the largest shareholder of Ames, and as long as he opposes it, the business will not be done.

"The relationship between Shanhai Microelectronics and Future Technology should be very clear to everyone, Horae solves the design obstacle of the 10nm process, which proves that Huaguo has stood on the top of the semiconductor industry, and we don't need to continue to block it.

The maximum process node supported by NXT 1950i is only 14nm, and the most advanced chip technology in China has just entered the 28nm field, and there is still a five-year technology gap between 14nm and 10nm, so we don't need to worry about losing the high-end chip market.

What's more, there is news that the other party's intended seller is not only Amax, if other companies grab the order, our loss will be great. ”

Kuroiwa's director said with a smile.

In his heart, he acquiesced that Huaguo couldn't even build a 40-nanometer lithography machine, so what threat was there?

As long as Ames doesn't sell Twinscan NXT 1970Ci or higher, they can rest easy and rely on advanced manufacturing equipment to reap a steady stream of profits from China.

"I have no opinion, as long as the other party is willing to give money, it doesn't hurt to sell it to them."

The people of Puxin Capital echoed the words.

"Last year's profitability made CR Capital very dissatisfied, and if this continues, I guess I will have to go back to my hometown in the beautiful country, so I agreed to sell."

The director of CR Capital saw that the other two major shareholders nodded in agreement, and he was no longer reserved, so he simply agreed.

The directors of Sanxing and Wanji looked at each other, and scolded in their hearts, the chip technology of the beautiful country has broken through, and they don't care whether they live or die.

It's just that the equity proportion of the two companies is small and the right to speak is low, so they can only reluctantly agree in the end.

After deciding to take the order, AMES began to fully produce the NXT 1950i lithography machine, and began to negotiate with Future Technology on the delivery method, balance payment ratio and time.

After all, a DUV lithography machine consists of 100,000 parts and weighs more than 100 tons, and it takes a lot of effort to transport it safely to Shanghai.

If it is transported by air, it will have to use two Boeing 747 transport planes to complete, and the cost of a single trip is as high as 10 million Chinese dollars, which is an astonishing cost.

"Mr. Chen, let's go by sea, the transportation cost is only one-fifteenth, and the saved money can even buy 3 more lithography machines."

He Tingbo suggested.

"Let Ames go by air, time waits for no one, every 10 units are delivered, there is no need to save this expense."

Chen Heyu shook his head and refused directly.

"Yes, boss."

He Tingbo hesitated for a few seconds and accepted Chen Heyu's plan, giving more money and being less angry, she still understands this truth.

"Okay, nothing else, I'll go first, equipment purchase is the cornerstone of future development, help me keep an eye on it, don't have problems."

Chen Heyu explained.

"No problem, I have set up a special team to follow up the whole process of order fulfillment and ensure that all kinds of equipment can arrive safely."

He Tingbo smiled and said.

"Regarding the idea of a large-scale production base in Pudong, I have communicated with Secretary Zhou, and the approval procedures for acquiring the land can be completed within two weeks, and I will first find a design institute to come up with a plan, which is a processing plant with an annual output of 3 million wafers, and we must not be careless."

Chen Heyu said.

"Okay, boss, I'll synchronize when there is progress."

He Tingbo said with a slight smile.

When she joined Shanhai Microelectronics, her husband complained about her, why didn't she choose Huayao Hisi?

Now it's completely no longer BB!

Mass production of 28nm chips!

40 billion capital of equipment investment!

This appearance of wanting to build the strongest chip company in China completely shocked the semiconductor industry and the life in the circle.

……

Chen Heyu took the car back to the headquarters of Shanhai Film and Television, ready to meet an old friend.

"Mr. Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, "Monster Hunt" will be released next month, I wish you a big box office hit in advance!"

He stretched out his hand, held Jiang Zhiqiang, and greeted him warmly.

"It's not comparable to Shanhai Film and Television, if I can have a box office of 1.5 billion, I'll be satisfied."

Jiang Zhiqiang said with emotion.

In the past few years, the movies produced and distributed by Shanhai Film and Television have surpassed one by one, bringing Chinese films to the threshold of 3 billion, which has caused a lot of pressure on veteran filmmakers like him.

"Mr. Jiang, be humble, please inside."

Chen Heyu smiled, "Monster Hunt" soared all the way in the previous life, winning a box office of 2.4 billion, if it were not for Xiao Yang's "Detective Chinatown", this movie would have become the box office champion in 2015.

The two took the elevator to the viewing room on the third floor.

"This is Lin Shiwei, CEO of Shanhai Film and Television, and Mr. Jiang knows him."

Chen Heyu pulled Lao Lin and introduced the two sides, and in the future, Lin Shiwei will be personally responsible for the cooperation between Shanhai and Le'an.

"Mr. Lin, I'm glad to meet you."

"Mr. Jiang, take care of me!"

After the two greeted each other, they were the first to walk into the playback room, followed by Hu Ge, Liu Yifei and other main creators of the film.

The first episode of the first season of "Jiuding Ji"!

Teng Qingshan, a short-haired young man, was in a small farmhouse courtyard, his upper body was naked, and he was standing in a three-body pose.

The subtitles are all in English, and the words and sentences that foreigners can understand are used to assist in comprehension.

"Lao Hu's Xingyi Fist is an entry!"

Chen Heyu said secretly, at least it is enough to fool the audience.

After speaking, Teng Qingshan practiced the collapse fist, or advanced and retreated, or took off and kicked sideways, all revealing the strength and beauty of Huaguo's ancient martial arts.

Then the man in black appeared, fighting and fighting, with fierce moves and superb camera movements, giving the audience the greatest sense of substitution.

The air shook, and there were layers of clearly visible ripples!

"This is also due to the Moss Ai special effects?"

Jiang Zhiqiang was a little surprised.

"That's right, as Moss Ai feeds more and more video footage and special effects clips, it will evolve again, and "Jiuding Ji" uses version 1.5, which is even more shocking than the visual effects of "Monster Hunt".

Chen Heyu said with a smile.

Jiang Zhiqiang was silent, planning to continue to hand over the special effects production of the next movie to Future Technology.

Then, as soon as the picture on the screen turned, Teng Qingshan and the killer died together, relying on the reincarnation of Kyushu Ding to travel through the Kyushu continent, and in this time and space where the aura of heaven and earth is abundant, the road of the grandmaster was reopened.

After watching five episodes in one go, the production is well-made, the special effects are real, and it shows a world of Kyushu like a spiritual realm.

"Mr. Chen, although "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has been a great success overseas, there is no guarantee that "Jiuding Ji" will have the same treatment, and the procurement department of Netflix and Hulu.com will be handled by Le'an International, but I want 20% of the distribution agency fee."

Jiang Zhiqiang said.

"Yes, 20% is 20%."

Chen Heyu readily agreed.

……

Two weeks later.

Jiang Zhiqiang replied, between Netflix and Hulu.com, he finally chose Netflix.

Without him!

Netflix is rich and willing to give an offer of 1.5 million US dollars per episode, but Hulu.com is only willing to pay 1.2 million US dollars.

The three seasons have a total of 36 episodes, each season is 12 episodes, and Netflix bought the broadcast rights of the first season to try the effect.

This is still because "Jiuding Ji" includes two elements that are loved by overseas audiences, ancient costumes and martial arts, and Jiang Zhiqiang reluctantly talked about it.

A total of 18 million US dollars were sold in the copyright fee, totaling 110 million Chinese dollars, deducting the distribution costs of Le'an International, Shanhai Film and Television received 88 million!

It doesn't seem like much, but the 12-episode TV series, shelved in the domestic market, will earn 60 million at most.

has his own online video platform, and Chen Heyu naturally won't sell it.

On June 23, Shanhai Film and Television announced that "Jiuding Ji" landed on Netflix and Shanhai Video website for global simultaneous release!

"Netflix spent 18 million US dollars to buy the copyright of the first season of "Jiuding Ji" in one fell swoop!"

"The popular IP "Jiuding Ji" was born, Netflix spent 18 million US dollars to compete for the copyright, and Hulu was tragically out!"

Book fans and drama fans rushed to tell each other, and spontaneously promoted them on meager and BBS forums, post bars, and video websites.

Being able to buy the copyright at a high price by Netflix is enough to prove the strength of "Jiuding Ji", and curious passers-by have logged on to the singularity Chinese network to learn about this story.

The thousand-degree search index even surpassed popular dramas such as "Flower Thousand Bone", "Han Love", and "The Legend of Wu Meiniang".

"Tomato, I'm coming to Jiangning this week to help you celebrate the success of the adaptation, and the Jiangnan banquet will start!"

A platinum god writer sends a message to Tomato.

"Do you have a treat?"

Tomato has been in a good mood lately, teasing.

Even if the copyright is sold to Shanhai Film and Television, according to the contract, he can still get 1 point of additional income, which is an exclusive benefit given to top writers after Chen Heyu became the owner of Shanhai Literature and adjusted the copyright contract.

Frankly speaking, there are not many, but for a big production like "Jiuding Ji", the global film and television copyright income is at least more than 500 million, and who can be unhappy with an extra 5 million out of thin air.

Moreover, after the film and television works are out of the circle, they can also feed back the subscription income, looking at the first place on the best-selling list, he couldn't help laughing.

"Of course you're in for a treat."

The shameless platinum boss laughed obscenely.

Of course, in addition to the original author, Hu Ge and Liu Yifei are also the biggest beneficiaries, and the two Yazhou faces are gradually known by overseas audiences for the first time.

Seeing this situation, he immediately contacted Le'an and asked to buy the copyright of Hu Ge's "Langya Bang".

The packaging price is 30 million US dollars, which is a surprise!

This costume drama, which has been in the market for two years, has become popular again because of the outbreak of overseas markets.
