City: From Inheriting a Courtyard To a Giant

"Mr. Chen, hello, your company is really very polite."

The two shook hands, and Chen Qian politely invited Qin Yan into the car. There were very enthusiastic conversations along the way. ,

Qin Yan was able to deal with it freely. It had to be said that the leaders of these state-owned enterprises did not mention anything else. Treating people is comfortable.

The red flag car drove all the way to the suburbs. There was constant laughter in the car.

The so-called fab refers to silicon wafers extracted from quartz sand to manufacture semiconductor integrated chips. round silicon wafer

So it is called a wafer.

The role of wafers in the era of informationization and intelligence has reached an unprecedented height. Applied to all fields of society.

Especially silicon wafers are irreplaceable.

Computer and mobile phone processors, graphics cards, memory, solid-state drives, digital cameras, etc. all use silicon crystals in large quantities.

Since it is a mobile phone...Qin Yan has to go to the extreme, make chips by himself, and use Hongmeng's own system. There are relevant technical information in the Chang'e database.

Special mention is made. Fabs are key support projects for almost all countries in the world

Tianhai Little Court

I heard that Hongmeng has launched a new business. When he wanted to buy or build -_ wafers in the industrial park, the policy immediately gave the green light, which even alarmed Governor Tianhai.

The third fab is located in the industrial park on the outskirts of Tianhai. It is a white steel building.

When Qin Wen heard this, Lei Jun and several of his friends were already waiting at the door. In addition to them, there is also the leader of the fab... and a member of the Tianhai Governor's Mansion.

After an eager meeting, Qin Yan and the others put on dust-free protective clothing. Finally walked into the inside of this fab. _

Chapter 154 A chip factory worth tens of billions (6/7 ask for a monthly ticket)

"Mr. Qin, what do you think of our factory?"

The one who spoke was Cao Kang, the general manager of the fab. In addition to the previous people, there were several fab professors on both sides.

There were thirty-four people in the tour group, and all of them wore white coats, masks and goggles. And Qin Yan was undoubtedly the most beautiful boy in the group surrounded by everyone.

"The equipment looks very new, well-maintained, and the factory building is very large." Qin Yan said casually.

Jinyuan Factory belongs to the precision processing factory, and the workshop occupies a large area. The equipment looks very cheap, but most of the lithography machine signals are made in China and can only engrave 40 nanometers.

Level chips, which can only belong to low-end products in the world

The only advantage is that the hygiene in the whole factory is very good. The whole factory building has no oil pollution at all, and the rows of lithography machines are arranged in an upright manner. People who don't know how to do it will feel that it is very high-tech and imposing.

"How much land does the whole factory occupy?" Qin Yan asked.

"May 4th Soil" "The main body of the factory building, sewage equipment, staff dormitory, canteen, and other places occupy an area of ​​50 acres." Cao Kang said, following Qin Yan, deliberately stepped back half a body.

"This piece of land is worth a lot of money." Qin Yan said while looking around.

"In the beginning. Our factory invested in this fab in the hope of being able to withstand the pressure of foreign countries and produce our own wafers. But the speed of technological upgrading in the new century is really too fast."

Cao Kang knew that Qin Yan had no talent. Wang Jian couldn't hide the truth about the situation in the fab.

"The governor attaches great importance to this enterprise project, and borrowed more than 5 billion from the bank.. To build this factory, everyone is passionate.

But who would have thought that only a few years had passed. The equipment in this kind of factory loses its competitiveness.

The Jiaolong chips we produced were not recognized by the market either. "

Chip semiconductor is a high-tech industry, and the global related technologies will be updated very quickly - new technologies will appear in almost 3 to 5 years.

Moreover, the most advanced technology in this area has been monopolized by large foreign capitals. For example, AMD and Intel in the United States, Samsung in China, and Sony in Japan:

In addition, the Zhi film industry. Only when there is a market can there be funds, and only when there are funds can we upgrade technology. In the past 8 years, the domestic market share of domestic film is less than 15%. Therefore, domestic film cannot make money, and there is no fund to recruit talents to upgrade technology.

This is a vicious circle industry

two companies, no

Talent and no money. No one can support it.

Many scientists in China who are passionate about making domestically produced tablets face such a dilemma. Most of them are unable to persist and change their careers, or the company is acquired. The worst result is that the entire factory will be abandoned, and even the wages will be paid. not come out.

But the reality is like this. 2 The Matthew effect of high-precision industries. Even more serious than the Internet industry.

Banks can lend money to you for development, but it is impossible to fill the bottomless pit with money endlessly. ,

"I heard that Taiji Electric has contacted you 2. How are you talking now?" Qin Yan glanced at Cao Kang. asked

.

"They are simply whimsical, and want to take over the entire fab at a price of 3 billion _ not counting bank debts.

And our factory has invested so far. There is also state support, and a whole billion has been invested. Now the bank has refused to lend us money. "Cao Kang stretched out a finger and said. As he spoke, the middle-aged man's eyes turned red with sadness.

scolded by the leader. Shareholders have been clamoring all day long to withdraw their shares, banks are also calling for loans, and employees have not been paid for two or three months. All kinds of difficulties have come one after another. Cao Kang is only fifty years old and his hair is already graying.

Qin Yan naturally would not have sympathy

There is no one who can decide billions of dollars in business with just a few tears.

"Old Lei, what do you think of this factory?" Please turn your head and look at Mr. Lei next to you.

"The equipment is complete., But these lithography machines are all old models that are about to be eliminated. Now the most advanced lithography machines abroad can already carve 20-nanometer wafers, and these 40-nanometer-level ones."

Lei Jun said softly that he had already regarded Qin Yan as a partner. He meant that Wafer C was also for making mobile phones. In other words, it's for e-commerce, so...he didn't save face at all, he just said it in front of everyone

come out.

"According to the nanoscience and technology in my mind, these lithography machines are completely modified and debugged: once, they can barely reach the 25-nanometer level."

Qin Yan stroked his chin and thought about it.

This fab has three main factory areas, and the average monthly production capacity is calculated. It can engrave 50,000 pieces, and the maximum production capacity is 80,000 pieces. _

However, after using Chang'e to take over the entire factory, fully optimize and upgrade the equipment, and fully automate it, the production capacity can be doubled.

If a new chip fab is built, it will take at least two years from the whole process of site selection, construction of the factory building, and procurement of equipment.

Dedicated

Considering that it is a domestic private enterprise, it is impossible for foreign countries to sell the most advanced lithography machines to them. Even in China, they can only buy 30-nanometer lithography machines at most,...

"How much debt does your bank have?" Qin He asked
