Chapter 201
After Tang Xiaochuan gave Liu Gongyou the launch of the satellite, Liu Gongyou would inform the human resources department to recruit scientific researchers from various majors, including talents from various majors such as aviation materials, rockets, aerodynamics, physics, etc., and also organize scientific researchers to assign them research tasks in communication technology.
Tang Xiaochuan returned to Feitian Technology Company and asked his assistant Zou Dinghui to notify Liu Zhiyuan and several vice presidents of the company and other senior executives to attend a meeting in the conference room.
"Boss, everyone is here!" Zou Dinghui knocked on the door and walked into the office to report.
Tang Xiaochuan got up and walked towards the conference room.
Liu Zhiyuan was discussing issues with several vice presidents. When he saw Tang Xiaochuan walking in, he stood up and shouted: "President Tang!"
Tang Xiaochuan said as he walked: "Sit all. It's a matter of calling you over, and it's a big deal. For the company's subsequent development, it's necessary for our company to launch some satellites!"
"Our company's equipment R&D center is currently the main business of developing chips. The chip component is born for computing and processing. It is currently the most widely used in the fields of communication and the Internet. If we want to develop in the fields of network and unlimited communication, it is necessary to launch our own commercial satellites. It is said that several companies in Meiguo are doing this. They plan to launch commercial satellites to cover the world with wireless signals, so as to get rid of their dependence on ground signal base stations!"
"In China, our company has almost no possibility of developing in the ground signal base station. This field is occupied by several major communication operators. We can only compete with Mei Guoren to cover the world with space satellite technology. It depends on who is one step ahead!"
Several executives looked at each other and Liu Zhiyuan asked: "Mr. Tang, we have never thought about launching our own satellite before. Is it technically mature? Our company's scientific research department has not yet established a project in this regard, right?"
Tang Xiaochuan said: "Professor Liu from the Equipment R&D Center has begun to set up projects. He wants to recruit a large number of troops and buy more R&D equipment. The company headquarters must cooperate with it with all its best! While they are conducting technical research, the company headquarters must clarify the approval process for launching satellites, understand the way the department should run, and prepare the relevant materials needed. Once the technology is mature, it will be sent to the application and approval immediately!"
Liu Zhiyuan asked: "General Tang, does the imperial court allow private enterprises to launch satellites? We don't know!"
"Didn't Youwei Company launch a satellite last year? The court relaxed restrictions six or seven years ago, and a commercial satellite was launched into the sky in 1915!"
"Okay, let's have a meeting to see if we can divide the labor!"
After the work tasks were assigned, Tang Xiaochuan ignored them. Liu Zhiyuan and others discussed the division of labor.
Back at the office, Tang Xiaochuan went to the office chair and was about to check the operating status of each company. At this time, Lei Laohu's voice entered his ears: "Sir, I captured some data. After analysis, I came to the conclusion that not only the Four-Star Group of Hanguo, but also the high-end chips of Taiji Electric in the Island Province have completely stopped production, because they have used up materials and cannot purchase them, so they can only stop the production of high-end chips. However, they are still deliberately concealing the news to prevent the company's stock price from falling sharply and affecting the company's operations!"
"In addition, other companies such as Inter, Fruit, etc. that require a large number of high-end chips for communication and Internet hardware equipment in Meiguo, their high-end chips have basically been sold out, and they are hiding the news!"
When Tang Xiaochuan heard this, "Oh? They finally have today?"
Lei Laohu reminded: "Sir, I think you can make a fuss about this news!"
Tang Xiaochuan's eyes lit up. It's good. Now these groups are concealing the news, fearing that the leaked news will cause stock market turmoil. If the lack of high-end chips and cannot be purchased, the majority of investors may think that these companies are all done. At that time, the stock prices may not plummet, but fall to the end. Once the stocks of these companies turn into a pile of waste paper, it will be not far from bankruptcy.
Tang Xiaochuan thought for a while and said to Lei Laohu: "Old Lei, if you post these news, you should not be found by the Mei people, right?"
Lei Laohu said confidently: "Impossible. If they found out, then why am I still going to do it? Go back to the future world and rebuild it!"
That night, many authoritative technology websites from various countries broke the news on the forum, and it was real news, with pictures and truth. Because of the lack of high-end photoresist and supporting reagents, all the seven-nanometer process chips have been stopped. They can neither produce foundry from other international companies. The subsidiaries of its own group are also facing the point where no chips are available. The five-nanometer process chips are not too mature for the Four-Star Group, with low yield rates and high manufacturing costs. Since the seven-nanometer process chips lack high-end photoresist and supporting reagents, the five-nanometer process chips are even more unfamiliar.
As soon as the news came out, on the same day, the stock price of Hanguo Four Star Group in the Meiguo stock market plummeted, falling below the limit for several consecutive days. In just three days, the market value of Sixing Group shrunk by US$300 billion, and it continued to fall.
Seeing this situation, Hanguo Four Star Group held a press conference and announced that Four Star Group has not stopped the production of seven-nanometer chips and five-nanometer chips, and everything is a rumor.
But investors will not easily believe it, because as early as last year, with the bankruptcy of the two Meiguo and one Yingguo parts and raw material manufacturing company, the production of high-end lithography machines and supporting reagents needed to manufacture high-end chips was stopped, and production has not resumed.
Since these three companies have not resumed production, and no other companies can produce products that are not inferior to the above three companies in terms of quality, it has become a natural fact that Hanguo Four Star Group has to stop seven-nanometer chips and five-nanometer chips due to lack of raw materials.
Although Hanguo Four Star Group has done a lot of public relations work, the continuous revelations on those technology websites have put their efforts in vain, and the market value of Four Star Group quickly shrank by half.
