Business warfare is not a dinner party.

The international equipment giants are not good men and women.

In the face of competition, they often show their most shrewd and vicious side.

This time, the chip equipment giants led by ASML began to feel the threat brought by Huaxia manufacturers, and naturally they would not take no action at all.

In particular, the establishment of the chip equipment alliance has won a group of supporters from ASML international equipment giants.

It has also reached some consensus with the chip giants.

"Ou Ningde, I think it is necessary for Intel to pay attention to the lithography machine crisis of Nanshan equipment, once Huaxia completely breaks through the barriers of lithography machines, then chip processing equipment will not be a particularly big problem for them in the future."

"After all, the lithography machine is the most difficult equipment among all the equipment, and it is only a matter of time before other equipment is overcome."

"In particular, we got the news that Nanshan Equipment has set up a chip equipment alliance with chip equipment manufacturers in China such as Modu Microelectronics Equipment, specializing in the so-called localization of equipment."

"Chips are now China's largest imported products, and they are also related to the core interests of many companies, including Intel and ASML."

"This practice of Huaxia enterprises is completely harming our vested interests, and it is absolutely unacceptable."

Christopher personally flew to the United States to lobby Intel's CEO to stand with ASML to deal with Nanshan Equipment and Huaxia's chip equipment manufacturers.

The more information he learned, the more Christopher felt threatened.

If it had been a few years ago, he would not have believed that Huaxia manufacturers could pose a threat to them in the field of lithography machines.

This is a collection of a large number of top suppliers from high-tech countries to produce and assemble products, and the threshold is not ordinarily high.

Especially in recent years, the processing technology requirements are getting higher and higher, and the requirements for lithography machines are also getting higher and higher.

In this case, the threshold of the lithography machine is also getting higher and higher.

At this time, Nanshan Equipment said that it had got the lithography machine.

If it's just a simple propaganda that he has done it, ASML probably won't take it too seriously.

However, Nanshan Semiconductor is ready to officially purchase these lithography machines, and the president of Huaxia's Government Council also personally went to inspect and there are a series of reports within Huaxia.

In this case, ASML just doesn't believe it and has to consider the truth of this matter.

Especially during this time, they collected the relevant news of Nanshan equipment and Nanshan Group, and knew the development history of Nanshan Group in the past so many years, and they were even more panicked in their hearts.

It's an off-the-beaten-path company.

Even T800 carbon fiber, and even rumored T1100 carbon fiber have been mass-produced, and it seems not impossible for companies that have broken the international blockade to make breakthroughs in lithography machines?

After all, the high-end equipment of large-scale high-precision five-axis CNC machine tools has also made a breakthrough in the hands of Nanshan equipment.

A series of achievements are over there, and ASML just can't be calm anymore.

That's why Christopher hurried to the United States and found the giants of the chip industry for help.

Everyone must stand up and resist together and condemn Huaxia's rule-breaking behavior.

"Is it possible for us to suppress the lithography machine industry in Huaxia by relaxing the restrictions on the sale of low-end lithography machines, and at the same time launch our new generation of lithography machine products as soon as possible?"

"For example, can the EUV lithography machine be launched next year?"

Ou Dening naturally has a good understanding of the situation of the international chip equipment industry, and he has not heard of such a big movement in Huaxia.

After all, the lithography machine is still relatively sensitive.

For a long time, it has been a few companies such as ASML and Dongying's Canon that have developed in the rules of the game.

Now that an outsider has broken in, this situation will definitely damage the original interested party.

"If Nanshan equipment is like other Chinese manufacturers, the lithography machine produced can only be used to make 200 nanometers, or even lower-end chips, then there is naturally no threat to us."

"Even like Modu Microelectronics, it can only produce chips of about 90 nanometers, and the threat to us is very limited."

"But according to what we know, their lithography machine is completely capable of producing more advanced chips."

"Even according to some of the information in the paper, even if the chip technology breaks through 28 nanometers or even 14 nanometers in the future, with their set of theories, the corresponding lithography machine can be produced."

"Nanshan Group, where Nanshan Equipment is located, is one of the most important enterprises in Huaxia that attaches great importance to R&D, with more than 100,000 employees of various kinds, of which the proportion of R&D personnel is still very high."

"Not only that, but their employees are also very hardworking, working a lot more hours a day than we do, and the workload of 100,000 people is estimated to be more than our 200,000."

"In this case, the threat they pose to us is too great."

"Today may only have a breakthrough in the lithography machine, and tomorrow maybe their chips will be slowly all localized."

"At that time, whether it is Intel or Infineon, everyone's interests will suffer huge losses."

Christopher gave his opinion very seriously.

This made Otellnine pay more attention to it.

100,000 employees?

The proportion of R&D personnel is still very high?

Is this worth it?

Everyone must cooperate to suppress Nanshan equipment together!

With Christopher's lobbying, various chip giants have also expressed their support for ASML's view.

So soon, ASML issued a statement to the outside world.

In this statement, ASML made it clear that although it appreciates Huaxia's technological progress, the self-developed lithography machine could cause serious damage to the global semiconductor supply chain.

This behavior should stop immediately!

After this statement reached Huaxia, it immediately caused an uproar.

"Mr. Cao, is Asml really shameless to this point?"

"They actually said such a ridiculous thing as causing damage to the global supply chain, didn't they think that they would destroy the supply chain when they didn't sell it to Huaxia Lithography Machine?"

Pan Jinxing came to Cao Yang's office in a rage and scolded Asmarc.

"Lao Pan, I use a figurative metaphor to describe the current situation."

"It's a boxing match, and other countries are using all kinds of hooligan tricks and secret weapons without any bottom line, and we have to follow the rules."

"At this time, the other party locked our throats, and we tried our best to break free, and by the way, we gave him a punch."

"But he said that our resistance violates the rules and is not conducive to unity, which is naked bandit mentality!"

"To break the bandit mentality of those international equipment giants, it is useless to be angry, we just need to respond to them with more advanced technology."

Cao Yang poured a cup of tea for Pan Jinxing unhurriedly and sat opposite him.

Whether it's ASML, Intel, or other international giants, don't look at the usual elegant and civilized appearance.

But once their core interests are involved, their true nature will be immediately exposed.

Any disgusting means are possible.

Pan Jinxing may not have seen a lot of this kind of thing, but Cao Yang has seen too much and seen through it in later generations.

"That's true, I always thought that these people made international trade rules, and everyone must want all parties to compete freely within the scope of the rules and promote the development of the entire industry."

"I didn't expect that people's free competition was just an attitude when they mastered the core technology."

"Once our technology outtakes them, the so-called free competition is a joke."

"All kinds of interventions will pop up and completely refresh everyone's cognition."

Although Pan Jinxing could understand what Cao Yang said, he was still angry in his heart.

In fact, there are still many people in China who feel that those giants in Europe and the United States are very friendly and give everyone a chance to compete fairly.

Only when Huaxia's technical level is getting higher and higher, and those giants have no way to continue to be high, will they find that those friendly gestures are often a gesture.

It's like you can show sympathy for an opponent who is much weaker than you, and show your noble character.

But once this opponent has become powerful and has begun to threaten your interests, you will deal with it in a completely different way.

"This is just the beginning, after all, we haven't put a lot of lithography machines into use yet."

"In the future, if they know that our lithography machine technology level is the best in the world, then the situation will be the most complicated."

"It is estimated that at that time, people's means will not simply make a statement, nor will it simply pull other giants to make some restrictions when purchasing equipment."

Although Pan Jinxing feels that ASML's current approach is disgusting and double-standard.

Nanshan equipment produces lithography machines, which actually threatens the stability of the supply chain?

What kind of joke is this?

But people can say such things.

However, compared with some future practices of the United States, ASML's statement is nothing but a drop in the bucket.

There's no need to be angry at all!

After all, there are even more angry things to come.

What Nanshan Equipment has to do is to completely complete the localization of related equipment, and in the future, if someone wants to lift the table, it can also have the power to survive.

In that case, you may be able to force the other party to invite you to sit down and have a good talk.

After all, only when your strength is enough, the other party will pay attention to you.

Otherwise, you can only scold there and lose your temper.

"Mr. Cao, I think that in the future, the matter of the chip equipment alliance can be further strengthened."

"And we require the manufacturers in the alliance to also achieve 100% localization of equipment components."

"When the equipment manufacturers of the alliance supply us, the price must be lower than the level sold to other customers."

"Then it is necessary for us to further increase investment in research and development to realize the localization of these equipment in the shortest possible time."

Pan Jinxing originally thought that the profitability of Nanshan equipment could become better in the next few years.

But now I find that I still need to continue to invest more, and the matter of making money will be left later.

Cao Yang naturally supports this point of view.

"No problem, spend money when you need to spend money, and recruit people when you need to recruit people!"

"A few days ago, our official Weibo didn't announce a news to the outside world, and the 100,000th employee of the group officially joined the company."

"It looks like a big employee, but I don't think it's enough."

"In the future, the number of employees of Nanshan Semiconductor and Nanshan Equipment alone needs to reach the level of 50,000."

"Coupled with other business divisions such as Xingchen Automobile, Future Automobile, and Nanshan Engine, not to mention 100,000 people, even 200,000 employees are not much."

"Even in the future, when new factories are built, it is not impossible to exceed 300,000 employees!"

Nanshan Group is now one of the top 10 large enterprises in China, and the number of employees is naturally quite large.

And compared with general large enterprises, the proportion of employees and R&D personnel of Nanshan Group is very high.

This is also a relatively rare situation in China.

With an employee size of 100,000 people, many international giants are already very uncomfortable.

In the future, when the number of employees expands to 200,000 or 300,000, it is estimated that more giants will start crying.

As long as the money is in place, the degree of volume of the employees of Nanshan Group can definitely refresh the cognition of international giants.

Cao Yang didn't simply want to squeeze employees, but felt that he would not take advantage of the better international situation in recent years to make Nanshan Group bigger and stronger.

If you want to develop in the future, it will be much more difficult.

After all, no matter how much Nanshan Group promotes localization, it is impossible to really do everything within Huaxia.

The simplest, crude oil and iron ore, are theoretically the basic raw materials that Nanshan Group will use, but their suppliers are using them.

It is impossible for Huaxia to get 100% of these things in China by itself.

There are also some high-end measuring instruments or software, and it takes a long time to fully realize localization.

There is a high probability that the Nanshan Group has not finished this road, and the United States can't help but take action.

"Mr. Cao, then I'll be bold enough to recruit people!"

"Taking advantage of the fact that our lithography machine has become famous, we will further recruit a group of R&D personnel for other equipment."

"Strive to completely realize the localization of all major chip production equipment within three years, and achieve 100% localization within five years."

Pan Jinxing patted his chest and set a goal for himself.

It may seem like there are still a few years to go, but it's actually very difficult to be completely complete.

I was able to assemble production equipment in China, which can be regarded as localization.

But every part in it, even a chip and plug, is produced domestically, and that is 100% localized.

This task is not easy at all.

Even in other companies other than Nanshan equipment, this is simply an impossible task.

In order to make the impossible possible, Nanshan Equipment must let more R&D personnel begin to kill those international equipment giants.

However, the Nanshan equipment is so rolled, and it is also possible to further stimulate some opponents to make more violent moves.
