Chapter 159 Precision Instruments
November 9th.
The CEOs of semiconductor-related companies and researchers of scientific research institutions that can be rushed to Shanmei City.
Including Zhang Rujing, who was dismissed by SMIC, also appeared here.

The entire Shanmei urban area became lively.
The headquarters venue of Suiren Company has temporarily opened some conference rooms to provide them to companies and research institutions participating in the seminar to meet or discuss semiconductor technology.
Huawei, which is close to the water, has transferred hundreds of semiconductor researchers from Pengcheng and the company's strategic analysis team, all of which have come to Shanmei overnight.
Today's seminar continues yesterday's topics.
Huang Xiuyuan, Lu Xuedong, Zhang Jingjian, Zhang Weixin and others conducted industrial discussions with various enterprises on behalf of Suiren Company.
Judging from the current situation, Long Totem and Suiren Materials basically undertake two major links: semiconductor equipment and semiconductor materials.
In the semiconductor manufacturing process, it is definitely impossible to be eaten by Long Totem, and the market share is very huge. The local market in China alone is enough to support many companies.
Secondly, eating alone is not only jealous, but also easily attracted by anti-monopoly. In addition, other electrical and electronic equipment companies also have to worry about being controlled by Suiren Company.
Therefore, in the chip manufacturing process, in addition to Long Totem, Huawei intends to establish its own chip manufacturing subsidiary, and Unigroup is also interested in developing the chip manufacturing field, plus SMIC, which is already in the chip manufacturing field.
It is estimated that 4 to 6 chip manufacturing companies will be formed in China.
However, the boss of Datang Group was very troubled at this time, because in the industrial sector of Datang Group, they planned to control SMIC and develop into a leading chip manufacturing enterprise in China.
However, SMIC's internal shares are very complicated. The current shares held by Datang Group are 10% held by Magic City Industrial and TSMC.
In addition, there are foreign-funded Goldman Sachs, Motorola, Xiangfeng Investment, Deutsche Management Fund, and Taiwanese-funded Handing Asia Pacific, and Yongwei Investment.
Finally, there are the shares held by founders such as Zhang Rujing, Jiang Shangzhou.
Although Datang Group's current largest shareholder, the problem is that the shares are only achieved by the proportion of shares, even if they are also state-owned Magic City Industrial.
Taiwan-sponsored and foreign capital certainly don’t want to see Datang Group control SMIC.
Now Datang Group is in a dilemma. If it continues to seize SMIC, foreign and Taiwanese capital will definitely not let go easily.
If you choose to start a new stove, you can avoid internal friction in snatching the control of SMIC.
Of course, this matter cannot be decided in a short while.
Another domestic communications equipment giant, ZTE, is also ready to move, as if thinking about intervening in chip manufacturing and improving its industrial chain.
In a chip manufacturing process, so many companies are targeting the remaining chip design, chip packaging and testing, whole machine design, etc., and all companies are showing their own powers.
Perhaps the more depressed companies are semiconductor equipment manufacturers such as Northern Huachuang and Zhongwei Electronics, because they found themselves hit by Suiren Company.
The third floor conference room of Suiren Company headquarters.
More than a dozen semiconductor equipment manufacturers including China Microelectronics, Northern Huachuang, Magic City Microelectronics were invited here to discuss future events.
The person in charge of this negotiation is Zhang Weixin.
"Everyone, let's talk straight to the point! Now lithography machines and etching machines are basically useless in the new process, and our company doesn't want to kill them all. Now there are two solutions, one is to find your own way out, and the other is to join the precision instrument alliance."
Li Mingcheng, general manager of Magic City Microelectronics, finished reading the plan of Long Totem Company.
The so-called precision instrument alliance is a company specializing in the production of precision instruments. Everyone unites to achieve technology sharing through patent authorization and at the same time form a comprehensive industrial chain supporting facilities.
For example, lithography machine technology, although in the manufacture of new processes, it loses its application.
However, the lithography machine itself is a large system, a lithography machine, which contains more than 200 sensors and 13 sub-systems, integrating optical lenses, deep ultraviolet lasers, automatic alignment system, balance system, overall control system, top-level servo motors, etc.
These technologies will not be completely useless just because the lithography machine is useless. After reintegration, they can be applied to other precision instruments.
Due to the technological outbreak of Suiren Technology, the West has increased the scope of ban on precision instruments in China, and the investigation has also been more stringent.
Recently, the more than a dozen laboratories that the CSI is responsible for building have failed to be in place. The reason is that the manufacturers of these top precision instruments have been warned by the big capital giants behind them.
Although Huang Xiuyuan started the independent research and development of precision instruments when he established the Snail Industry, it only takes time to accumulate.
Even if more than a dozen related small enterprises in China are merged and reorganized through mergers and acquisitions, accelerating the development of precision instruments in the snail industry, it can only produce mid- and low-end products at present.
After promoting nanowire semiconductor technology this time, domestic semiconductor equipment manufacturers will definitely be seriously affected.
Huang Xiuyuan saw an opportunity, so he ordered Zhang Weixin to interview companies such as Northern Huachuang, Zhongwei Electronics, and Magic City Microelectronics to form a precision instrument alliance, integrate and support these companies, and build a domestic precision instrument industry chain.
Li Mingcheng asked hesitantly: "Mr. Zhang, is the framework of the Precision Instrument Alliance too strict?"
"Everyone, is there a free lunch in the world? Our company has to provide funds, market and technology to ensure the healthy development of the precision instrument alliance." Zhang Weixin said bluntly.
A number of semiconductor equipment manufacturers suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Although Long Totem does not pursue controlling shares for members in the Precision Instrument Alliance, the corresponding management system and supervision are still very necessary.
Dragon Totem has introduced the model of Robinia ants, hoping to reduce some unnecessary problems in the process of integrating these companies.
After weighing the pros and cons, various semiconductor equipment manufacturers initially agreed to the conditions.
After joining the Precision Instrument Alliance, the advantage is that it is naturally that it is good to cool off by relying on a big tree. The Dragon Totem and the Suiren Group behind it will not only provide funds, technology and management, but also arrange orders and organize special scientific research projects.
Although it will be semi-controlled by Long Totem Company, in the basic law of the alliance, in order to dispel the concerns of these companies, Long Totem Company promises not to actively request a controlling stake unless the equity owners of these companies are willing to sell them to Long Totem Company.
In addition to the semiconductor equipment industry, domestic semiconductor materials have basically been wiped out.
Therefore, another subsidiary of the Suiren Group, Suiren Materials, came forward to establish a Material Alliance to manage these semi-dead semiconductor materials companies and develop various new materials.
With the initial establishment of the Precision Instrument Alliance and Materials Alliance, Suiren Company has stabilized upstream semiconductor-related companies.
The next big problem is the problem, because chip manufacturing, chip design, and the entire machine system have become issues of discussion.
