Great Power Army Reclamation
Chapter 1545 Current Status of ASML Company
Moreover, this country has a strong sense of nationality and few foreign products can enter their market. Mainly when people go shopping, their first intention is to buy domestic products. Unless there is really no suitable product, no one will easily import it.
Of course, this is also related to the quality of other people's products. The performance of various products is no less than that of foreign products, and the prices are much lower. You will only buy other people's things if you are crazy.
And we are in a certain era, export and domestic sales are upside down in terms of quality and price. That is, the quality of exported products is low but the price is low, while the high quality of domestically sold products is low price.
Maybe these manufacturers are using the slogan of occupying the international market in exchange for foreign exchange, but is this really the case? In fact, I understand everything, but I can only say "hehe".
So relatively speaking, if you choose to start with Canon and Nikon, it is better to choose to cooperate with ASML.
Ye Feng himself didn't understand the photolithography machine at all. It was only after Mr. Ni introduced it to him in detail that he had a general understanding.
A photolithography machine is similar to a camera. Its negative film is a silicon wafer coated with photosensitive adhesive. The circuit pattern is micro-projected onto the negative film through a photolithography machine, and part of the glue is etched away, exposing the silicon surface for chemical treatment. To manufacture chips, this process needs to be repeated dozens of times.
The lens located in the center of the lithography machine is composed of more than 20 pot-bottom-sized lenses connected in series. The lens is made of high-purity light-transmitting material + high-quality polishing. The lenses used in photolithography machines cost tens of thousands of dollars each.
The lenses are primed with Zeiss technology. It takes decades to hundreds of years of technical accumulation to make the lens material uniform.
For the same lens, if different workers polish it, the smoothness will vary ten times. Workers who polish lenses have held the same position in the same company for three generations.
In addition, lithography machines require small, high-power and stable light sources. State-of-the-art photolithography machines use extreme ultraviolet light with short wavelengths and extremely complex optical systems.
Thirty thousand mechanical parts must be reliable and have top-notch lenses and light sources. Without ultimate mechanical precision, it is useless. There are two synchronously moving workpiece stages in the lithography machine, one for carrying negatives and one for carrying film. The two need to be synchronized at all times, with an error of less than 2 nanometers. The two worktables moved from static to dynamic, with an acceleration similar to that of a missile launch.
It is equivalent to two large planes moving together from takeoff to landing. A knife sticks out from one plane and carves words on the rice grains of the other plane. The carving cannot be damaged. "
Moreover, changes in temperature, humidity and air pressure will affect focus. “The change in temperature inside the machine must be controlled within five thousandths of a degree, and there must be appropriate cooling methods and accurate temperature sensors.
The best lithography machine contains 13 subsystems, 30,000 mechanical parts, and more than 200 sensors, each of which must be stable. Like the European Champions Cup final, anyone who performs improperly will lose.
This complicated process gave Ye Feng a headache. No wonder people dare to brag. Even if I give you a complete set of drawings, you can't build a lithography machine.
But a headache is a headache, but things have to be done. Ye Feng called his father about this, and Ye Yuze encouraged his son without hesitation.
"Son, as you grow older, you have to shoulder many responsibilities. Don't rely on dad for everything. People of your generation can't just sleep on the legacy that your fathers have laid for you, but you have to start your own business. Expand territory."
Only then did Ye Feng realize why his father had gone to Africa. This is just to hide from things, so as not to be nagged by Mr. Ni.
But I'm not an adult yet, okay? Don't you feel guilty doing this? After realizing it, Ye Feng looked up to the sky and sighed, but what could he do? That's dad, real dad!
After thinking carefully for a while, Ye Feng called Zha Hongying and asked her to check the equity structure of ASML.
Nowadays, ASML is at its peak. Coming to ask for cooperation at this moment is definitely a dog-licking behavior, so the price to be paid is definitely not worth the gain, so we must find another way.
As a result, Cha Hongying's report left him stunned. Things were completely different from what he thought, and even the opposite.
It turns out that ASML was originally a small company under the name of Philips, but later became independent at the insistence of the founder.
You must know that Philips Electronics is one of the largest electronics brands in the world, ranking first in Europe. A world leader in color televisions, lighting, electric shavers, medical diagnostic imaging and patient monitoring instruments, and single-chip television products. Philips has 166,500 employees and is active in lighting, consumer electronics, home appliances and medical systems in more than 60 countries.
You must know that ASML is just a subsidiary that produces chips at this time. Once it breaks away from Philips and without strong financial support, it can only become a small and inferior company.
You must know that the photolithography machine industry is also a money-burning industry. It is impossible for them to achieve anything big on their own.
The previous glory was due to big backers like Philips. Even if they don't make money, Philips will have no problem raising them. But the nature is completely different when it becomes independent.
First, they have to face fierce competition in the market. Because although they have some advantages in the lithography machine market at this time, it is not obvious.
Moreover, Japan's Canon and Nikon are also eyeing them. It used to be that with the support of a behemoth like the parent company, they could not take these two companies seriously, but now it is different.
You must know that product sales also require channels. In the past, their lithography machine sales also relied on Philips' channels. Now this channel is gone and they can only rely on themselves.
However, Japan's Canon and Nikon are large comprehensive companies that cover products in many industries. If ASML is allowed to face these two behemoths alone, the final result will be that not even the bones and scum will be left.
After learning the news, Ye Feng immediately called Ye Yuze. Ye Feng was sitting under the umbrella at the moment and watching the bayonet mercenaries training.
Not to mention, this kid Yang Wei has such a strong character. Not only did he stop the grandparents who were beating his father that day, but he also took the initiative to stop all the responsibilities. And he showed up at the training ground again the next day.
When he saw Lewis, he flashed his middle finger and said, "Just wait, kid. Labor and management will definitely defeat you when you leave!"
Lewis also extended his middle finger to him, with a look of disdain on his face. He didn't believe that this little kid could do anything to him? Don’t forget that your father was trained by me. Although he is better than me now, I am an instructor, right?
Yang Wei naturally didn't know his little thoughts and just trained hard. Naturally, wanting to defeat him does not only mean fighting, but also various military skills. Otherwise, Lewis would not be able to submit?
Therefore, what he has to do now is to first improve his physical fitness to a relatively high level.
Why have subscriptions suddenly dropped in the past two days? Isn't this bad? If you guys don't watch enough, then you won't be able to raise it well, right? Especially when it comes to pursuing reading and tapping your little hands to make a fortune, we can’t be timid.
