Global Monopoly of Technology

Luo Sheng didn't stay in Shencheng for too long, and only returned to Sucheng after about half a day.

There was no rest after returning, but went straight to Lens Semiconductor to meet Xu Zhijun.

"Excellent, so the first-generation Honor mobile phone can hold a press conference in the second half of the year." Xu Zhijun heard Luo Sheng briefly explain the situation of Xiongxin Electronics, and the annual supply can easily exceed 100 million pieces. Scale, suddenly refreshed.

It can be said that the brand of Glory has been in preparation for more than a year, and basically everything is ready.

Xu Zhijun couldn't help laughing and said: "If Lao Yu knew this news, he would definitely be very happy, this guy has been complaining to me, saying that people are dying of suffocation, and now he can only post Weibo and 'interact' with friends and businessmen all day long. For a moment, it was a bit interesting to interact with at the beginning, but after a long time, it became boring."

Luo Sheng also smiled at each other when he heard it.

Lao Yu must be bored, and when someone said "your product", he was speechless.

The quarrel is secondary, the key is seeing Xiaomi and other friends' products selling more and more prosperous, but Honor has to wait for Xiongxin Electronics to exert force, and Yu Dazui is also in a hurry.

Because of the stipulations in the agreement, it was decided that Wah was an independent terminal brand because of Xiongxin Electronics.

However, Mr. Yu is still very confident in the competitiveness of Honor. As long as it does not compete with the Azure series products, he is very confident in other low-end brands in the mainland, even overseas brands such as Samsung, HTC, and LG are not false.

Because Honor's technology is actually a secondary technology inherited from Azure mobile phones, which is currently the benchmark for the global smartphone industry. Even if it is two generations behind, its competitiveness in the mid-to-low-end market will be leveraged.

"Lao Xu, I have one more thing to do today." After a while, Luo Sheng changed the subject.

Xu Zhijun looked at the other party with a faint smile, and put on a posture of listening intently: "Please speak."

Luo Sheng is also polite: "It's still a talent issue. Huawei has to transfer some scientists to the head office, especially mathematicians, preferably mathematicians from Russia, and chemists."

In the early years, the two parties have reached a long-term strategic partnership, one of the key agreements is to break through the talent barrier.

Xu Zhijun didn't think about it, nodded and said, "No problem."

he knows,

Hua Wei's executives all know that Luo Sheng wants to build a pure domestic semiconductor industry chain, and Hua Wei itself is one of the core players. As a company with earlier qualifications in the ICT field than the C么te d'Azur, Hua Wei is also very aware of this. How hard the road is.

In fact, Lao Xu admired Luo Sheng's formidable courage in his heart. The difficulty of this road can't be summed up in a few words.

Over the years, Luo Sheng has laid out in the entire semiconductor industry chain to the present, but there are still many links that are missing, even blank, and still cannot turn around without the global semiconductor industry chain.

Fortunately, Lens Semiconductor now has its own substantial core voice, that is, the current top chip manufacturing technology has adopted the FinFET technology, which is recognized as the mainstream by the industry at the 28nm and 22nm process nodes.

The manufacturing process of chips is like building a house with Lego, with wafers as the foundation first, and in terms of wafer purification, the Japanese company Shin-Etsu Chemical monopolizes this process.

The necessary IC chips can then be produced through the wafer, and after layer-by-layer chip manufacturing processes, which are often stacked on top of each other.

However, without design drawings, it is useless to have strong manufacturing capabilities. Therefore, the role of "architect" is very important, and Lens Semiconductor is mainly engaged in the field of IC design.

In the IC production process, IC design companies carry out the planning and design. Manufacturers such as Lens Semiconductor, MediaTek, Qualcomm, Intel, etc. can design their own IC chips and provide chips with different specifications and performance for downstream manufacturers to choose. .

Therefore, IC design relies heavily on the technology of engineers, and the quality of engineers affects the value of an enterprise.

However, before IC design, EDA industrial software is required. Luo Sheng has already laid out this part, investing in more than a dozen start-up companies or joint ventures specializing in EDA software, such as Jingchuang Technology and Huada Jiutian. This industry is because Luo Sheng for the sake of unprecedented capital support.

There are also multiple steps in making an IC.

Metal sputtering: evenly sprinkle the metal material to be used on the wafer to form a thin film;

Coating photoresist: Put the photoresist material on the wafer, hit the light beam on the unnecessary part through the photomask, destroy the photoresist material structure, and then wash the damaged material with chemicals;

Etching: The silicon wafer without photoresist protection is etched with ion beam;

Photoresist removal: Use a photoresist remover to dissolve the remaining photoresist, so that one process can be completed.

In the end, many IC chips will be completed on a whole wafer, and the following is to cut the square IC chips to be completed and then send them to the packaging factory for packaging.

After a long manufacturing process, from design to manufacture, we finally turned a pile of sand into an IC chip. However, a goose chip is quite small and thin, and it will be easily scratched and damaged if no protection is applied. Furthermore, because of the tiny size of the chip, it is difficult to manually place it on the circuit board without a larger size housing.

After the packaging is completed, it will enter the testing stage. At this stage, it is necessary to confirm whether the packaged IC can operate normally. After confirmation, it can be shipped to the assembly factory and made into electronic products that are common to consumers. So far, the semiconductor industry has Completed the entire production task.

The main task of Xiongxin Electronics is manufacturing and packaging and testing.

It sounds simple, but in fact it involves more than 1,000 or even 2,000 complex processes. There is no country in the world that can build a complete semiconductor industry chain, not even the Americans, let alone. Speaking of a group company.

And Luo Sheng is doing such a thing.

It must also be connected, even if it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, in order to be able to independently turn a pile of sand into a chip, not just for use on a smartphone.

Unmanned driving, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, aerospace, intelligent machinery and other things that make the "industrial party" obsessed do not leave a chip the size of a square inch.

The victory of this square inch is the basis of his future series of black technology layout, the foundation of high-end industrial manufacturing, and the chip is the jewel in the crown of this industry.

Luo Sheng stayed at Lens Semiconductor for more than half an hour, then left and went straight home.

Two days later, a phone call came to him, and Director Zhong of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Office made a personal call.

Looking at the caller ID, Luo Sheng guessed something without asking. He only went to see the super factory of Xiongxin Electronics three days ago, and also gave Liu Yixuan some instructions.

At this moment, Luo Sheng wrapped a bath towel handed to him by Qingxue sister paper, picked up the phone on the table, sat down on a chair and connected.

"Director Zhong, what wind brought you here." Luo Sheng said with a smile.

"About Huaxin International." Zhong Yuanhong didn't beat around the bush. As soon as the call was connected, he explained his intentions directly. He knew that Luo Sheng was a shrewd young man. Better to speak frankly.

At this time, Sister Qingxue brought him a cup of afternoon tea, Luo Sheng sipped and said, "Director Zhong, it's not that I don't want to accept Huaxin International, but that I don't want to mix some troubles into it and build a whole semiconductor industry. The chain is as difficult as the sky, and it is not easy to deal with foreign enemies. If the inside is tossing you, it will be difficult."

Obviously, Liu Yixuan must have talked with the people from Huaxin International, and Luo Sheng knew the result without asking. Zhong Yuanhong called now, and it has already explained that the agreement has not been reached.

Luo Sheng noticed that the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, he thought for a moment and said: "In this way, I will take one step back, the last step, the merger of Huaxin International can cross shareholding with Xiongxin Electronics, but all shareholders must sign with me. The concerted action agreement stipulates that the period is thirty years.鈥?,"Signing this agreement simply means that when the board of directors of Xiongxin Electronics makes a decision, the other party votes unanimously according to the agreement, and Luo Sheng votes against it, and then votes against it, and vice versa.

for thirty years.

Luo Sheng knows that the leaders over there also need achievements, and the capital management office of the local government is also optimistic about Xiongxin Electronics, which is in charge of Luo Sheng, and the future financial revenue is also very considerable.

Luo Sheng understands this very well and is happy to share it, but the premise is that it cannot affect the progress bar of his strategic layout. He doesn't care about sharing the benefits, and he must share it. The more wealth is divided, the more.

What I am afraid of is that leaders love to be in charge, and laypeople are the most troublesome.

Luo Sheng: "Director Zhong?"

Director Zhong, who has been silent so far, responded: "Thirty years..."

Luo Sheng replied with certainty: "Yes, at least thirty years... If it really doesn't work, then I won't play here in Shencheng. I will move Xiongxin Electronics to the Pearl River Delta of Pengcheng, a camp in this economic belt. The business environment and the scale of industrial clusters are no worse than the Yangtze River Delta.鈥?,"Zhong Yuanhong: "..."

He was silent for a while, and he was not sure whether Luo Sheng's words were the result of consideration, or whether the young man was impulsive. After all, his aura of achievement cannot hide the fact of youth. Young people are generally soft and hard. Eat, it's better to eat soft and not hard, and Zhong Yuanhong's judgment that Luo Sheng is the latter is far more likely than the former.

After all, the young entrepreneur said that even those who have been in the shopping mall for decades are not as good as they have shown.

Zhong Yuanhong ended the silence and responded, "Okay, I see, I will match it up and give you an answer as soon as possible."

If the leaders of Pengcheng heard it, they would not be happy.

In any case, it is absolutely impossible for Shencheng to let Xiongxin Electronics "run away" this time. The relocation of Bluestar Technology has almost made me regret it. Let's take a look at the market value and revenue scale of this company.

Heartache!
