Chapter 310: Talking people in the semiconductor industry, everyone earns money together!
"Bernard, you can't do that!"
Zhang Zhimou said solemnly.
βWhyοΌ Why not, to tell you the truth, it's the Foundation's final decision! If you take stock of the business volume of Bay Semiconductor Company, even if you give you the equipment, you can only eat ash in the factory. β
Bernard scoffed.
Bay Semiconductor Company has lost a large number of market shares one after another, and the chip foundry orders of Ping Jing and MVIDIA have been snatched away by Shanhai Microelectronics, and because of the impact of the chip gate incident, the Snapdragon series of Pickaxe has been handed away.
The production capacity is less than 60% of that in 2015, if it weren't for the fact that BDL used its connections and industry influence to help Zhang Zhimou match and hand over part of the orders of Intel and Botong Electronics to Wanji, I am afraid that the other party would not even be able to hold the passing line.
In the view of the foundation's senior management, it is better to sell these lithography machines to Huaxin International, which is all rework equipment anyway, and the rest of the energy is all focused on optimizing the manufacturing process of EUV lithography machines, so as to increase production.
Limited by the complexity of the optical system, the high requirements for materials, small changes in process parameters and other factors, may lead to a decrease in yield.
Although AMES's lithography machine manufacturing technology maintains a leading position in the global market, it is still unable to control the yield rate well.
Bay Semiconductor Company's goods, let him continue to wait!
"Aren't you afraid, cultivate another mountain and sea micro-electricity?"
Zhang Zhimou snorted coldly.
Ames didn't say hello, and even Bedley acquiesced in such behavior, and it was obvious that his performance was extremely disappointing to the major shareholders.
However, handing over the advanced DUV lithography machine to Huaxin International is tantamount to raising tigers.
βNo No NoοΌ Huaxin International's level in the chip process node is very low, two years ago announced that it had mastered the theoretical technology of 28nm, and two years later, it has not yet achieved large-scale mass production, which shows that their ability is poor, and there is no threat to Wanji! β
Bernald said contemptuously.
"What if Shanhai Microelectronics licenses the 28nm process technology to Huaxin International?"
Zhang Zhimou raised a possibility.
"Will you share the 14nm chip process with Lotus?"
Bernard asked rhetorically.
He has long seen through the character of Chinese infighting, who is willing to cede his own interests?
ββ¦β¦β
Zhang Zhimou was silent.
He really won't, after all, Wanji and Lotus were once enemies of life and death, in order to stand out from the semiconductor industry in Wandao, the two parties don't know how many tricks they have played on the table and in private.
"I advise you to break through the 10nm process as soon as possible, and the Snapdragon 825 completed the physical performance test last week, and if there are no major problems, it will be released and listed in the Q3 quarter.
Whoever spends the OEM order, you have to rely on strength to speak! β
Bernard kindly reminded.
In terms of 14nm and 16nm chip foundry services, Wanji has a complete transmission of Wanji, and only by taking the lead and winning the order of Pickaxe Snapdragon 825 can we have a chance to win back a game.
Zhang Zhimou sighed, the recent events made him physically and mentally exhausted, as if his operating philosophy was a century behind.
The aging body is a little difficult to support, and it may really come time to find a successor.
β¦β¦
Shanhai Microelectronics Headquarters.
Chen Heyu leaned lightly on the sofa and looked at Gao Lexian opposite.
This veteran of Huaguo's semiconductor industry has always been a bull's ear before the rise of Shanhai Microelectronics.
However, after Shanhai Microelectronics successively launched 28nm, 16nm, and 14nm advanced technologies, Huaxin International's voice gradually faded, and it could only pick up some scraps and rely on the low-end chip market to survive.
He was about fifty years old, wearing a blue shirt and a gray suit with an open gray suit, his body was slightly bloated, and his eyes showed the cunning and shrewdness of a businessman.
"Mr. Chen, this incident has nothing to do with Huaxin International, and Amax and I are just normal traders."
Gao Lexian was a little aggrieved, he was a big man who had been up and down in the business world for many years, but now he had to serve carefully in front of his juniors, for fear of making the other party unhappy and causing suppression.
"Mr. Gao, don't be nervous, I don't mean this, calling you over is also a good thing to share."
Chen Heyu stomped his legs and said with a smile.
Meddlesome?
Share?
Gao Lexian doesn't know why, isn't it?
He couldn't help but light up, and after thinking about it, he felt that he was thinking too much, and thinking about it from his own side, he would not be so generous.
"What does Mr. Chen mean?"
Gao Lexian said softly tentatively.
"How long will Huaxin International's 28-nanometer chip be from mass production? What is the yield rate? β
Chen Heyu did not answer his question directly, but asked him again.
Gao Lexian's face was embarrassed, this information was the company's trade secrets, except for a few high-level executives and the director of the R&D center engineer, no one knew the specific data.
Do you want to say it?
He raised his head and looked at Chen Heyu with burning eyes, the leader of the chip industry in China, a technology upstart who dared to directly argue with Ames, his face was calm at this time, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"It will take half a year, and the yield rate of the laboratory is only 63%."
Gao Lexian hesitated for a moment and replied in a muffled voice, only to feel panicked with his cheeks and a little embarrassed.
The 28nm chip process was barely called a mid-to-high-end technology two years ago, but after the 16nm and 14nm production processes slowly matured, it was completely reduced to a low-end process.
Rice brand mid-range price phones will not use processors made of 28nm process, and will only be placed on low-end brand Zimi phones.
In addition, in this kind of chip manufacturing process with mature production technology, the yield rate of Shanhai Microelectronics is as high as 94%, and the yield rate of Bay Semiconductor and Sanxing is also 91~92%.
63% is really difficult to say, even if it is forcibly listed, it will have no place in the industry and no competitive advantage because of the super high production cost.
"I can license the process technology of 28nm chips to Huaxin International for use, is Mr. Gao interested?"
Chen Heyu said unhurriedly, observing the other party's micro-expressions.
Gao Lexian was first surprised, and then frowned slightly, looking like he was suffering from gains and losses, as if he wanted and worried.
"What are Mr. Chen's conditions?"
He couldn't help but ask, no way, the temptation is too great!
Even if the 28-nanometer chip manufacturing process is three to five years behind the world's first-class level, it still makes him dream.
The process flow, design specifications, and packaging and testing technology are all shortcomings that Huaxin International cannot handle, and they are also the main reasons for the delay in delivery and launch.
"I should ask this sentence, what kind of chips can Mr. Gao give?"
Chen Heyu said with a smile.
He made an appointment with more than one Huaxin International, but also representatives of more than a dozen companies such as Huahong Integration, Jinling Hi-Tech, and Qinghua Ziguang, all of whom were on the way to come.
"Mr. Chen wants a cut of net profit?"
When Gao Lexian heard this, he immediately thought of the operation of future technology in the field of Ai painting and VR holographic games, and he couldn't look down on the technology licensing fee, and he didn't expect to impress Chen Heyu.
As for the proportion, how much should be given?
He made a mistake for a while, according to the commission of VR holographic games, that is, 30%; According to the Ai painting industry, that's up to 25%.
The foundry gross profit margin of the chip industry is basically more than 60%, how much is he appropriate?
Chen Heyu bowed slightly, noncommittal, did not take the initiative to speak, and looked at the other party indifferently.
β25%οΌβ
Gao Lexian asked.
Chen Heyu was silent, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was faintly missing.
β30%οΌβ
Gao Lexian gritted his teeth and said, there is no shame in following the Shanhai Micro Electric Mix, and in a few years, it will be a shame to be eliminated by the times.
"Don't worry, there are still some friends on the way, let's talk in detail when everyone arrives."
Chen Heyu took a look at it, and he was clear about Gao Lexian's bottom line.
30% is 30%, a long stream!
The total annual demand for chips in China is about 270 billion to 300 billion US dollars, of which 80% depends on imports.
Most of Shanhai Microelectronics' business is overseas, and the low-end chip manufacturing process can be completely authorized to support a group of people who turn to him, so as to grab more benefits.
Therefore, he is ready to adjust the chip foundry structure, only do the mid-to-high-end market, and leave some soup and water to feed the remaining semiconductor companies.
The low-end market is too big and the profit margins are weak, so he doesn't need to die!
"No wonder you dare to enter the aerospace field, just with this courage and courage, ordinary people can't match!"
Gao Lexian's heart was shocked, and he immediately understood Chen Heyu's gameplay.
This is the semiconductor industry that wants to dominate China!
Since then, there are only two camps left, the friends of Shanhai Microelectronics and the enemies of Shanhai Microelectronics, and they can obtain the authorization of advanced chip technology by joining.
He pondered for a moment, and made up his mind.
The members who joined the Moss Ai Painting Alliance back then, now they all have unlimited scenery, they only need to do a good job in marketing and promotion, and the research and development and version upgrades are all in charge of Future Technology.
Huaxin International was suppressed by Sanxing, Fututong, Wanji, and Lianhuake in the Yazhou market, and could only pick up some bones to gnaw, and received some backward 42nm, 55nm, and 60nm OEM orders, with extremely limited profit margins.
Just as the two were drinking tea and chatting, under the headquarters building of Shanhai Microelectronics, luxury luxury cars stopped.
General Manager of Huahong Integration!
Executive Director of Jinling Hi-Tech!
Vice President of Qinghua Unigroup and CEO of Dahua Region!
Representatives of more than a dozen semiconductor companies, surrounded by assistants and bodyguards, got out of the car, glanced at each other, secretly vigilant, and also had some vague guesses about Chen Heyu's actions.
"Good morning, Mr. Chen is in the conference room upstairs, please come with me."
He Tingbo greeted politely.
Chen Heyu didn't greet him personally, and they didn't dare to say anything, after all, they were far inferior in terms of status and wealth in the circle, so how could they dare to show displeasure.
"Mr. Zhao, fortunately, you are here too."
"Oh? Mr. Wang, if you can come, I can't come? β
"Don't waste time at the door, Mr. Chen is still waiting?"
"Sycophants!"
The group exchanged simple greetings, and then followed behind He Tingbo and walked towards the depths of the building.
I didn't stop until I was in front of the door of a large and bright conference room.
"Knock Knock ~ Knock Knock ~"
He Tingbo knocked softly on the glass door.
"Please come in."
Chen Heyu replied calmly.
"Crunch"!
Everyone's eyes converged on the first seat, and for the first time, they saw Chen Heyu's appearance, in his early twenties, wearing a white shirt, with a strong and slender figure, more like a star than an entrepreneur.
It is said that he is also proficient in computer algorithm models and transistor structure design, and is among the top engineers and experts.
is also a top student of HKUST, and Moss's original underlying frame was designed by him.
His life experience is very similar to Rebus's, but his achievements are hundreds of times greater!
"Mr. Chen, hello, I am glad to see you! The contemptible person is Wang Kan of Jinling Hi-Tech......"
"Thank you Boss Chen for taking care of us and calling us over, there must be a big business!"
"Although Mr. Chen puts forward conditions, I will take your lead as a leader!"
The group spoke one after another, with an enthusiastic appearance, if it was placed in the outside world, it would definitely startle the jaws of the people who ate melons.
Among these people, the poorest people, with a net worth of no less than 10 billion Chinese dollars, are flattering Chen Heyu at the moment, as if they have seen relatives.
"Everyone, please sit down, I believe you have some speculation in your heart, then I will no longer hide it, I plan to license the production process of Shanhai Microelectronics 28 nanometer chips, of course, who to choose, it depends on whose sincerity?"
Chen Heyu got straight to the point.
Gao Lexian looked around, saw everyone's elated expressions, and sighed helplessly in his heart, I don't know if the bottom line of 30% can be kept?
He knows better than anyone what the virtues of his competitors are.
It's not good to engage in R&D, and the volume price is a competition and a professional!
"Boss Chen, our Jinling Hi-Tech has 30 years of rich experience in chip production, and we are fully equipped, and we can start work immediately after getting the technical electronic documents."
A pot-bellied man was the first to respond.
"Mr. Wang, you have rich experience, but the equipment is too backward, far inferior to our Huahong integration."
Another middle-aged man with a flat head interrupted him with a smile.
"Please rest assured that as long as it is audited by Shanhai Microelectronics and the production conditions are up to standard, you will have the opportunity to be authorized.
There is also the news that at the end of the year, I will also release the licensing cooperation of the 16nm process. β
Chen Heyu said with a smile.
16 nm?!
The group was all stunned, you know, Pinghua's A9 processor is the 16nm process, this kind of mid-to-high-end process, Shanhai Microelectronics is willing to take it out?
"Mr. Chen, Qinghua Ziguang is willing to give 25% of the net profit as a patent royalty."
A man in a suit and leather shoes said first, for fear of taking a slow step and losing the opportunity.
"Mr. Chen, we are also willing to accept optoelectronics!"
"Caijing Technology sells 30% of the net profit!"
ββ¦β¦β
A group of bigwigs with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars didn't care about their identities at all, like a market vendor, and quoted on the spot.
"Huaxin International, you can get 35%!"
Gao Lexian suddenly spoke, and the rest of the people were suddenly dumbfounded and at a loss!
35%οΌ
It's kind of crazy!
"Then, Huaxin International is the first semiconductor company cooperated with Shanhai Microelectronics."
Chen Heyu said that he knew very well that the 16-nanometer chip process had broken through Gao Lexian's bottom line.
In another year, mainstream flagship smartphones will enter the 14nm or even 10nm era.
At that time, the 16nm chip process will no longer be important to Shanhai Microelectronics, so it is better to take it out and spur this group of people.
"Mr. Chen, Jinling Hi-Tech can also accept this condition!"
"Huahong Integration is no problem, and the contract can be signed immediately."
ββ¦β¦β
Everyone couldn't wait to say that Huaxin International could accept a 35% commission, and they naturally didn't dare to open their mouths to bargain.
Chen Heyu smiled, slightly relieved in his heart, things were going more smoothly than he imagined.
I'm glad I didn't meet anyone who didn't know how to do it!
However, just when he thought so.
A shrill voice came from the crowd: "Mr. Chen's wishful thinking is really loud, and it is too naΓ―ve to want to be a person in the semiconductor industry of Huaguo without spending a dime!" β
Chen Heyu's face froze, and he looked in the direction of the voice, and it turned out to be the representative of Jiangdian Technology.
"Mr. Kang, do you have any opinions?"
He snorted.
Shameless things, just want to guard their own one-third of an acre of land, eat the dead orders of scientific research and educational institutions, and have no enterprising spirit at all.
In the future, when the semiconductor association of the beautiful country wantonly engages in blocking, it will be powerless again.
"Opinions can't be discussed, everyone is a member of the Huaguo semiconductor industry, 28 nanometer chip process is not a core technology for Shanhai Microelectronics, why not announce it to jointly promote the progress of the industry?
More than a billion Chinese people will definitely sincerely thank you, just some things outside the body, why should Mr. Chen care too much? β
Kang Penghai, the general manager of Jiangdian Technology, had a shameless expression and said with a dignified expression.
