Chapter 443 [It's really not good, I'm not playing in Shencheng anymore]
Luo Sheng did not stay in Shencheng for too long. He only came for about half a day before returning to Sucheng.
When he came back, he did not rest, but went straight to Lens Semiconductor to meet Xu Zhijun.
"That's great. So, the first generation of Honor mobile phones can hold a press conference in the second half of the year." Xu Zhijun heard Luo Sheng briefly explain the situation of Xiongxin Electronics. When he heard that the annual supply volume could easily exceed 100 million pieces, he was immediately excited.
It can be said that the Honor brand has been preparing for more than a year, and basically everything is ready.
Xu Zhijun couldn't help but smile and said, "Old Yu would definitely be very happy if he knew this news. This guy kept complaining to me, saying that he was almost suffocating. Now he can only post on Weibo to 'interact' with his friends. It was interesting to interact at the beginning, but it was boring after a long time."
Luo Sheng also smiled at each other when he heard this.
Lao Yu must be bored, and the words "your product" were immediately speechless.
The key is that as Xiao Mi and other competitors sell more and more popular products, Honor has to wait for Xiongxin Electronics to make efforts, Yu Dazui is also very anxious.
Because the agreement stipulates that the decision to be the independent terminal brand is because of Xiongxin Electronics. It is no exaggeration to say that Xiongxin Electronics has the Honor brand because of Xiongxin Electronics.
However, Mr. Yu is still very confident in Honor's competitiveness. As long as he does not benchmark with the Azure series of products, he is very confident in other mid- and 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 the Azure mobile phone, it is currently a benchmark for the global smartphone industry. Even if it is behind two generations of technology, its competitiveness in the mid- and low-end market is still very good.
"Old Xu, I have something else to do today." After a while, Luo Sheng changed the topic.
Xu Zhijun looked at the other party with a faint smile and put on an eye-catching attitude: "Please say it."
Luo Sheng was not polite either: "It's still a matter of talent. Xia Wei has to transfer some scientists to the headquarters, especially mathematicians, preferably mathematicians and chemists in Russia."
In the early years, the two sides reached a long-term strategic cooperative relationship, and one of the key agreements was to break through each other's talent barriers.
Xu Zhijun nodded without thinking and said, "No problem."
He knew that all the senior executives knew that Luo Sheng wanted to build a full industrial chain of pure domestic semiconductors. Hua Wei was one of the core participants. As a company with earlier qualifications in the ICT field than the Costa del Azure, Hua Wei also knew very well how difficult this road was.
In fact, Lao Xu admires Luo Sheng's strong courage in his heart. The difficulties of this road cannot be summarized in just a few words.
Over the years, Luo Sheng has been laying out in the entire semiconductor industry chain until now, and there are still many links missing or even blank, and it still cannot be transferred without the global semiconductor industry chain.
Fortunately, Lens Semiconductor now has its own substantial core voice, that is, its top chip manufacturing technology has adopted the fi technology, and is recognized as the mainstream in the 28nm and 22nm process nodes.
The manufacturing process of chips is like building a house with Lego. First, wafers are used as the foundation, and in terms of wafer purification, the Japanese Shinyue Chemical monopolizes this link.
After the chip manufacturing process that is often stacked up layer by layer, the necessary Ichi chips can be produced.
However, without design drawings, no matter how powerful manufacturing capabilities are, it is useless. Therefore, the role of "architect" is very important, and Lens Semiconductor focuses on the field of IC design.
In the IC production process, IC design companies plan and design. Manufacturers such as Lens Semiconductor, MediaTek, Qualcomm, Intel and other manufacturers can design their own IC chips and provide chips of different specifications and performance for downstream manufacturers to choose from.
Therefore, IC design relies heavily on the technology of engineers, and the quality of engineers affects the value of an enterprise.
But before I was designed, I needed EDA industrial software. Luo Sheng had already made an early arrangement in this area, investing in Jingchuang Technology, Huada Jiutian and more than a dozen startups or joint ventures specializing in EDA software. This industry has received unprecedented capital support because of Luo Sheng.
There are also multiple steps when making ic.
Metal sputtering: Sprinkle the metal material to be used evenly on the wafer to form a thin film;
Coating photoresist: Place the photoresist material on the wafer, hit the light beam on the unnecessary part through the photoconveyor, destroy the structure of the photoresist material, and then use chemical agents to wash off the damaged material;
Etching: Silicon wafers not protected by photoresist are etched with an ion beam;
Photoresist removal: Use photoresist liquid to dissolve the remaining photoresist, so that a process can be completed.
Finally, many Ichi chips will be completed on a whole wafer. Below is the square Ichi chip to be completed and can be sent to the packaging factory for packaging.
After a long manufacturing process, from design to manufacturing, a pile of sand has finally turned a pile of sand into an Ichi chip. Range is quite small and thin. If it is not protected outside, it will be easily scratched and damaged. In addition, because the size of the chip is small, it is difficult to manually install it on the circuit board without a larger size.
After completing the packaging, you have to enter the testing stage. At this stage, you need to confirm whether the packaging IC can operate normally. If it is confirmed, it can be shipped to the assembly factory and become a common electronic product for consumers. At this point, the semiconductor industry has completed the entire production task.
The main task of Xiongxin Electronics is the manufacturing and packaging testing process.
It sounds simple, but in fact it involves more than a thousand or even more than two thousand complex process processes. No country in the world can build a complete semiconductor industry chain, even Americans cannot do it, let alone a group company.
And Luo Sheng is doing such a thing.
It must also be opened, even if it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, it must be done. In order 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, etc., make the "Industrial Party" obsessed with nothing but a chip of a size in a square inch.
This victory in a small space is the basis of his future series of black technology layouts, the foundation of high-end industrial manufacturing, and the chip is the jewel in this industrial crown.
Luo Sheng stayed at Lansi Semiconductor for more than half an hour before leaving and went home directly.
Two days later, a call came to him, and Director Zhong from the State-owned Assets Office called a private phone number.
As soon as he saw the caller ID, Luo Sheng guessed something about it without asking. He went to see Xiongxin Electronics' super factory in person three days ago, and also gave some instructions to Liu Yixuan.
At this moment, Luo Sheng was surrounded by a bath towel handed to him by a girl in Qingxue, picked up the phone on the table and sat down on a chair and answered it.
"Director Zhong, what wind has blown you?" Luo Sheng said with a smile.
"The matter of Huaxin International." Zhong Yuanhong didn't beat around the bush. He directly explained the purpose of the call as soon as he answered. He knew that Luo Sheng was a smart young man. Even if you didn't say many things, he felt like a mirror in his heart. It would be better to say frankly.
At this time, Qingxue Meizi 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 get into trouble. It's difficult to build a full semiconductor industry chain, and it's not easy to deal with foreign enemies. If you are trying hard for you internally, this job will be difficult to bear."
It is obvious that Liu Yixuan must have talked with people from Huaxin International, and Luo Sheng knew the result without asking. Zhong Yuanhong called now, but it has already shown that the negotiation has not been completed.
Luo Sheng noticed that the other end of the phone was silent for a long time. He thought for a moment and couldn't help but say: "In this way, I will take another step. The merger of Huaxin International can cross-hold shares with Xiongxin Electronics, but all shareholders must sign a joint actor agreement with me, and the term is 30 years."
To sign this agreement, simply put, when Xiongxin Electronics board of directors makes a decision, the other party's voting votes unanimously according to the agreement. Luo Sheng votes against it, and then votes against it. Otherwise, the same is true.
It will last for thirty years.
Luo Sheng knew that the leaders there also needed achievements, and the local government's fund office was optimistic about Xiongxin Electronics, which was headed by Luo Sheng, and its future fiscal revenue would be considerable.
Luo Sheng understood this very well and was happy to share it, but the premise was that it could not affect his strategic layout progress bar. He didn't care about sharing benefits, and he had to share it. The more wealth he divided, the more he had.
What I am afraid of is that the leader loves to manage affairs, and the layman is the most troublesome thing to do when he is in charge of his inner affairs.
Luo Sheng: "Director Zhong?"
Director Zhong, who has been silent until now, responded: "Thirty years..."
Luo Sheng replied with great certainty: "That's right, for at least thirty years... If it really doesn't work, then I won't play in Shencheng. I will move Xiongxin Electronics to the Pengcheng Pearl River Delta. The business environment and industrial cluster size of this economic belt are not worse than those in the Yangtze River Delta."
Zhong Yuanhong: “…”
He was speechless and silent for a moment. He couldn't tell whether Luo Sheng's words were considered or that the young people were childish and impulsive. After all, his aura of excellence could not hide the fact that young people were young. Young people generally did not eat soft and hard, and those who were better were soft and hard. Zhong Yuanhong's judgment that Luo Sheng was the latter was far greater than the former.
After all, the young entrepreneur said that he showed his mind, even those who have been in the mall for decades are not as good as those who have been in the mall.
Zhong Yuanhong ended his silence and responded: "Okay, I understand. I will make some suggestions and answer you as soon as possible."
If the leaders of Pengcheng heard it, they would be happy.
No matter what, it is impossible for Shencheng to "run away" this time. Bluestar Technology's relocation has almost made people regret it. Look at the company's market value and revenue scale.
Heartache!
