"Mr. Wu, what is the foundry price of Shanhai Microelectronics' 7nm chips?"

A white reporter from Chip Design stood up during the Q&A session and asked.

"This question should be answered by Mr. He, I am just an ordinary chip engineer, from a professional point of view, reducing the process, although it is possible to cut a larger number of 7nm chips on a 12-inch silicon wafer.

However, due to the increase in device density, it means that more complex pins and wires need to be arranged in a smaller area during the packaging stage, which poses new challenges to packaging technology, packaging equipment, and packaging materials.

It is important to know that each micro solder ball array or 3D packaging technology has to consume a huge amount of R&D funds and scientific research manpower, so the overall pricing strategy will still maintain an upward trend......"

Wu Maozhe replied calmly.

Shanhai Microelectronics' 10nm chip foundry service standard is 23,800 US dollars per wafer, and this charging policy has been implemented for more than a year.

If the foundry price difference between 14nm and 10nm chips is used, the foundry cost of 7nm chips will break through to 30,000 US dollars per wafer!

The cost of processors for smartphones and laptops will also be affected by this, ushering in an increase of 20%-40%.

Subsequently.

Wu Maozhe briefly answered the questions of several reporters before Shi Shiran walked off the stage and won the applause of the audience.

"Angkor, when you gave a speech, you were handsome, and those foreigners were stunned."

Xie Shengdong turned into a fan brother, applauding and touting vigorously.

"Look at your envious look, the next new product launch conference, I will definitely recommend it to the boss and let you speak as a representative of the engineer."

Wu Maozhe breathed a sigh of relief, sat back in his seat, and joked at the little brother.

"Brother, you better let me go, I can't say it, if I go up and knock Panpan, I will lose the face of the company."

Xie Shengdong waved his hand again and again, looking resistant.

"I think Angkor is right, Ah Dong, you have to exercise more."

Ye Youcheng said with a smile.

Noyce on the side smiled but did not speak, his eyes showed a look of envy, he did not have modest nutrients in his bones, and he couldn't wait to replace Wu Maozhe immediately and stand on the brilliant and dazzling stage to speak freely.

He knows very well that it won't be long before this world-renowned new product launch will make headlines around the world and become the darling of traffic chasing!

7nm chip process!

Shanhai M-5's strongest flagship mobile phone chip!

Candle Dragon 10800 EUV Lithography Machine!

The semiconductor pattern in Dahua will change as a result, and the former major importer of integrated circuits will completely reverse its role, completely get rid of the shackles of multinational chip giants, and enter an unscrupulous growth period.

As for the beautiful country?

It's all about the!

When Noyce scoffed at the fact that he couldn't afford to buy the sports car and villa he wanted, the vampire executives in Turtle Valley didn't show the slightest idea of a raise.

In his heart, he has long regarded Shanghai as his second hometown, and he is ready to marry a beautiful Chinese girl and take root here.

"Ah Cheng, it's your turn, come on!"

Wu Maozhe patted Ye Youcheng on the shoulder and cheered him up.

After He Tingbo on the stage finished speaking, he was looking at Ye Youcheng with burning eyes and smiling.

Ye Youcheng took two deep breaths and stepped onto the stage with vigorous steps, this ordinary-looking round-faced boy, who was not yet thirty years old, but with the chip works of Shanhai M series, he ranked among the world's top electrical engineers.

Inter, Pickaxe, Pinghua, and even Sanxing, Nikang, and Texas Instruments have offered an annual salary of hundreds of millions of dollars to poach him.

However, in the face of these temptations, Ye Youcheng chose to refuse them all, not because he didn't love money, but he was more willing to believe that Chen Heyu would not treat him badly.

$100 million?

As long as he stays in Shanhai Microelectronics, he may be able to get 1 billion US dollars a year in the future!

The life experiences of Ye Youcheng, Wu Maozhe and Xie Shengdong have made countless students majoring in electronic engineering, mathematics, computer, materials and physics in China begin to slowly believe that it is possible to achieve financial freedom by relying on their own talents and abilities.

What's more, the treatment level of Shanhai Microelectronics is not low, and if you rise to P2, you can benchmark the income of chip engineers in Guigu.

After Ye Youcheng stood still, facing the thousands of audiences, he first smiled slightly, and then said unhurriedly:

"Distinguished guests, industry seniors and media friends, I will introduce the fifth-generation processor product of Shanhai M series - Shanhai M-5.

From the first generation to the fifth generation, after two years, you may not be familiar with Shanhai M1, M2 and M3, because these three chips are mainly carried in the low-end models of Rice Technology, which are used to open up the Gray Island Continent and Latin Berry Continent market.

However, after the birth of Shanhai M-4, we really have developed by leaps and bounds, with self-developed baseband patented technology and Kimi generation architecture, which has caught up with Sanxing, Pinghua and Intel's processor products in an all-round way.

In terms of process, Shanhai M-5 adopts 7nm FinFET technology, accommodating up to 7.8 billion transistors, an increase of 39.3% compared with the previous generation of products, so as to provide powerful computing performance and efficient power management. ”

Ye Youcheng spoke eloquently, confident and calm throughout the whole process.

In a corner of the stage, a gray-haired man sat with tears in his eyes.

"This is my son, and my father is proud of you."

The man muttered under his breath.

"Shanhai M-5 uses a six-core CPU design, with two high-performance cores for high-intensity tasks and four high-performance cores for light-duty tasks.

This design allows the processor to allocate resources more efficiently and in a balanced manner when handling different workloads.

In terms of AI and machine learning, it is equipped with the Jetson TX28 AI Neural Engine, which is equipped with machine learning and artificial intelligence functions, and it has 8 cores capable of processing 5 trillion operations per second, which can excellently complete tasks such as accelerating face recognition, image processing, and speech recognition.

In terms of GPU performance, it uses four independent graphics cores, each of which can handle graphics computing and rendering tasks at the same time, providing excellent image performance.

In addition, it is equipped with a high-performance graphics engine that can handle tasks such as image rendering, texture mapping, shading, and pixel operation at high speeds.

In other words, smartphones equipped with the Shanhai M-5 chip are powerful in gaming, video rendering, and graphics-intensive applications. ”

Ye Youcheng said with a faint smile.

The performance and power consumption ratio of the Shanhai M-5 processor is more than doubled by beating the Snapdragon 835 and Pinghua's A11 Bionic chips.

The addition of dual-channel fast charging technology provides a convenient and comfortable charging experience, which can charge from 0% to 50% in just 15 minutes.

Then, Ye Youcheng made a comprehensive analysis of Shanhai M-5 from the perspectives of video memory compression, cache structure and memory subsystem, power consumption and 3DMark physical testing.

Lu Lei, president of Pinghua Dahua District, frowned when he heard this!

His previous conjecture was not wrong, Shanhai Microelectronics' growth rate was terrifying, and in just three years, it became the overlord of the semiconductor industry in the field of chip design, production and packaging.

The iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X, which will be released next month, will face an extremely embarrassing problem, that is, there is a huge performance difference between the A11 Bionic and the Shanhai M-5.

CAN THE SUPERIORITY OF THE IOS SYSTEM WIPE OUT THIS?

Lu Lei was a little apprehensive for a while, he had long heard of the operation of Rice Technology in the Gray Island and Tianzhu markets, and the Hongmeng system of Future Technology had evolved to version 2.13.

Tens of millions of mobile device owners are helping future technology optimize and iterate this domestic system.

If the Rice MIX2 and Rice Note3 use the HarmonyOS system and the Shanhai M-5 chip, will Apple's advantage in the high-end market still last forever?

Lu Lei shook his head silently, and made up his mind to relay all the content of today's press conference to Tim and the board of directors.

Every decision that follows will be crucial for Apple!

“…… Thank you, I hope that mobile phone brands at home and abroad will continue to support Shanhai M series chip products, the single purchase price is 95 US dollars, interested friends can contact Mr. Wang in charge of sales business. ”

Ye Youcheng was cheeky and advertised.

After all, for every Shanhai M-5 chip sold, he can draw a dividend of 0.95 US dollars.

Make money, don't chill! What's more, it's still for its own benefit!

"Bang-Bang-Bang——!"

In an instant, there was thunderous applause from the audience, and the reporters "clicked" and pressed the shutter button to take a group photo of Ye Youcheng and the Shanhai M-5 chip on the big screen!

In the eyes of foreigners, this shy little fat man is undoubtedly the brightest superstar in the mobile phone industry in 2017.

Wan Semiconductor Company, Sanxing and Inter have not worked hard for two or three years, and they will definitely not be able to catch up with the footsteps of Shanhai Microelectronics.

This period is the golden period of Huaguo's mobile phone industry and semiconductor industry!

After the applause gradually subsided, He Tingbo tidied up the hem of his clothes, strode to the stage, and replaced Ye Youcheng.

"Underneath the red silk is the Candle Dragon 10800 EUV lithography machine?"

Meng Lao asked softly.

"It's just a part, the complete Candle Dragon 10800 EUV lithography machine, the parts of a single equipment are as high as 100,000, the overall weight is about 180 tons, the length is 16.8 meters, the width is 6.5 meters, and the height is 3.2 meters, which is too troublesome to pull over."

Chen Heyu said with a smile.

Although the stage can be put down, there is no need at all!

Meng Lao bowed slightly, smiled and didn't say anything, but instead set his eyes on the stage, waiting for He Tingbo's next move.

"As we all know, the three core technologies of EUV lithography machine are EUV optical lens, EUV lithography light source and double workpiece table system.

Here, I clearly and responsibly announce that even if it is a bolt accessory, we insist on using domestic suppliers.

After two years of unremitting efforts, a scientific research team of more than 4,000 people has finally created a 100% self-developed commercial lithography machine equipment, which is suitable for chip manufacturing at 7nm and 5nm process nodes. ”

He Tingbo said in a flat tone.

After that, the big hand lifted, and the silky red silk fell in response!

A snow-white rectangular workbench was exposed, and the audience who was more familiar with the structure of the lithography machine quickly recognized that this was a group of exposure tables.

It is also called the measuring table, which is a workbench that carries the silicon wafer and is used to support and position the silicon wafer, and in the photolithography process, the exposure table positions the silicon wafer under the projection optical system in order to accept the projection of the photoresist.

The picture on the big screen rotates to show a more comprehensive and three-dimensional Candle Dragon 10800 EUV lithography machine using digital animation technology.

"Due to space constraints, we only brought in one set of exposure tables, but the structure is just as complex and consists of multiple components, such as:

Vacuum suction cups, which absorb the silicon wafer by negative pressure and make it firmly fixed on the exposure table before exposure, prevent the silicon wafer from moving or swinging during the exposure process.

The atmosphere control system is used to control the environment in the booth work area and ensure that the photoresist is exposed under optimal conditions, including filters and temperature controllers.

Measurement systems to detect parameters such as the position and rotation of the silicon wafer, as well as the mass and thickness after exposure. Typically consists of a sensor and computer interface to provide real-time feedback and adjust the position and parameters of the exposure stage......"

He Tingbo is not only a manager, but also a professional technician, when it comes to the candle dragon lithography machine, it is natural to talk about it, full of confidence.

In addition to the exposure table, the internal components of a lithography machine also have more than a dozen large spare parts such as lasers, beam correctors, energy controllers, mask tables and objective lenses.

Therefore, after introducing the structure of the exposure table, He Tingbo pondered for a moment and said:

"The 10800 EUV lithography machine uses a 13.5nm wavelength EUV light source, which has higher optical resolution and lower schlieren effect than traditional deep ultraviolet lithography technology, which is also the basis for its ability to support the production of 7nm and 5nm chips.

First of all, the EUV light source has a power of 55 watts, which provides a powerful and stable light source, guaranteeing good exposure and ultra-high production capacity.

Secondly, it has a production capacity of 160 wafers per hour, which can meet the needs of high-intensity and large-scale chip production.

Thirdly, the precise optical imaging system can accurately project the chip design pattern onto the silicon wafer, which has the excellent characteristics of high resolution and low distortion, which greatly reduces the production defect rate.

Finally, the advanced intelligent control system can monitor and adjust the key parameters in the lithography process in real time to ensure stable production efficiency and obtain consistent quality chip products. ”

When He Tingbo said this, he directly switched the projection screen and released the pricing system of the Candle Dragon 10800 EUV lithography machine.

The domestic version is 200 million Chinese dollars, and the international version is 70 million US dollars!

Some people quickly reacted that this was a benchmark for the price of the AMES TWINSCAN NXT 1980 Di.

Ames dared to sell a lithography machine for 70 million euros, and Shanhai Microelectronics was not inferior at all, quoting a sky-high price of 70 million US dollars!

In fact, after converting the exchange rate, the price of the Candle Dragon 10800 EUV lithography machine is discounted by 80 million Chinese dollars!

In an instant, everyone realized that this was the second wave of revenge from Shanhai Microelectronics against the ban on the sale of Ames.

I'm afraid the next days of Ames will not be easy!

Even if Bernard follows up the price reduction strategy, will semiconductor companies in Dahua and Yazhou choose Ames?

Before the press conference ended, the outside world was boiling.

Shanhai Microelectronics' so-called 100% independent research and development is tantamount to telling the global lithography equipment manufacturers, don't you love to increase prices?

Labor and management do not buy!

Bernald's eyelids, who were thousands of miles away, jumped, and he immediately panicked!

If Ames loses the Greater China market, the company's annual revenue will drop by one-third, which is more than 20 billion Chinese dollars!

"Great reversal! Huaguo lithography machine is rising strongly, AMSL is helpless! ”

"The first domestic lithography machine in China came out - Candle Dragon 10800, priced at 200 million Chinese dollars, less than 40% of Ames!"

"The candle dragon is obscure, and its vision is clear! Shanhai Microelectronics, sweep away the darkness of Huaguo's semiconductor industry! ”

"Passing on the torch, Xu Duanyi, the father of lithography machines, supports mountains and seas!"

"Fifty years of domestic lithography machines: a spark can start a prairie fire? Mountains and seas micro-electricity, force to save the sky! ”

"Neon is panicking, and the beautiful country is in a hurry! Candle Dragon 10800 is born! ”

Social platforms, mainstream print media, HCTV's noon news, and dozens of websites and TV stations across the country switched channels to make in-depth reports on the press conference.

Among them, of course, there is the instruction of Meng Lao, and there is also the strong influence of Shanhai Group itself.

Penguin, Xiangyi, Xinlang, Sohu, Teasing, Flyer and Tiantian Toutiao all have the shadow of Shanhai Capital behind them.

The heads of these companies, equal to the achievements of the parent company, naturally spare no effort to publicize!

"200 million Chinese dollars? I rely on it, after the cost of lithography machine is reduced, can the price of domestic mobile phones be cheaper in the future? ”

"Huh! The good days of Ames have finally come to an end! ”

"Mountains and seas microelectric cowhide! This slapped a wave of Ames in the face, didn't they say, give the drawings to Huaguo, we can't make them? ”

Netizens got excited and ran to YouTube, Facebook, and ins to ridicule! (End of chapter)
