Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading

Chapter 467: Peer Panic

Xinghai Group independently developed a lithography machine, which quickly caused an uproar in domestic and foreign media, and netizens were extremely shocked.

Then, the fire quickly spread to foreign chip manufacturers and lithography machine manufacturers.

The executives of the three manufacturers of ASLM (ASM, L), Nik0n and Can0n of the island nation were shocked by this sudden event, so that they were in a half-demented state as if they had received an electric shock.

"This is absolutely fake!"

"How could the Xinghai Group develop the lithography machine so quickly? We developed the lithography machine at the beginning, but it took many years and a lot of money. How could they buy so many parts for the lithography machine?!"

"Try calling our partners to see if Xinghai Group buys parts from our suppliers?"

Two senior executives of ASLM called more than a dozen suppliers and found that Xinghai Group had never purchased parts from them.

It means that the Xinghai Group produced it itself?

How can it be? !

Or entrust other suppliers to process?

It's just that they don't know which suppliers Xinghai Group has found.

I don't know what Xinghai Group's lithography machine looks like or what its structure is. I just saw the wafer and chip Xingchen 01 displayed by Xinghai Group from the video.

A large company like this, and it is recognized as the king of the world's machinery, held a press conference and said that it is probably true that it has independently developed a lithography machine.

Now ASLM has one more competitor, and the opponent is very powerful. Judging from the chip performance announced by Xinghai Group, it is very superior, which shows that the lithography machine is very advanced, and the conventional 7nm can be mass-produced, which has surpassed them.

The Xinghai Group suddenly rode over their heads, and the ASLM executives felt that this was a shame!

If Xinghai Group's lithography machines have the greatest impact on ASLM, then who is the chip produced by Xinghai Group most influential on?

There is no doubt that it is Puntong!

The chips chosen by most mobile phone manufacturers around the world are Pingtong chips, while Pingguo's A-series chips are exclusively for their own use, but are manufactured by Four Star and TJD.

The chip of the four-star mobile phone is occasionally used by itself, even if the global shipments rank third, but in the high-end mobile phone, the chip of the mobile phone is still used.

Why even the four-star adopts the chip of Pingtong?

This is of course, the chip performance of Pingtong is good.

At the same time, for Four Stars, Pingtong will hand over the chip manufacturing to Four Stars, and the flagship of Four Stars will be equipped with Pingtong chips. This is also a win-win choice!

Its main business is radio communication technology research and development, chip research and development, and it is the company that competes with Huawei for the 5G standard.

In July 2014, the relevant domestic departments confirmed the monopoly of Pingtong, and Pingtong may face a fine of billions or even tens of billions.

If this company belonged to Hua Country, it would definitely not be investigated.

Domestically, they are really helpless to Pingtong Company, and they don’t want to see it make a lot of money, so fine it.

But even if it is a fine of tens of billions of dollars, it is nothing compared to the ability of Potong to collect money in Hua Country. They earn 20 billion U.S. dollars a year from Hua Country.

We often hear "Xiaolong" chip, which is actually the chip series of Pingtong.

In 2022, the mobile phone chip with the best performance will be Xiaolong 8gen2, which is slightly better than the A16 chip with the best performance in Pingguo.

Xiaolong 8gen2 uses 4nm process technology, only from the perspective of CPU frequency, 3.2GHz*1+2.8GHz*4+2.0GH*3.

What is the CPU frequency of Xingchen 01?

3.15Ghz*2+2.60GHz*2+2.05GHz*4.

The difference between the two is almost the same, but the Xingchen 01 has a better structure and lower energy consumption. Even if it uses a 7nm process technology, there is no 4nm ratio, but the overall performance is still better than Xiaolong 8gen2.

Xiaolong 8gen2 just came out in 2022. It is a laboratory sample and has not been used yet.

If ranked by performance, it is: Xiaolong 8gen2 \u003e Xiaolong 8gen1 \u003e Xiaolong 888 plus \u003e Xiaolong 888 (equivalent to Pingguo A13, Kirin 9000, four-star EXynos2200, Dimensity 8100) \u003e Xiaolong 870 \u003e Xiaolong 865 Plus\u003e Xiaolong 865\u003e Xiaolong 855 Plus

In 2014, not to mention Xiaolong 855 has not yet come out, the current top mobile phone chip should be Xiaolong 810, which was announced in April this year, but the sample has just been released, and it is expected to be shipped in the first half of 2015.

8 CPU cores (4x Cortex-A57 and 4x Cortex-A53), CPU frequency: 2.0GHz*4+1.5GHz*4.

Not to mention comparing with Xingchen 01, it is not as good as Xingguang 01 (2.25Ghz*2+1.85GHz*2+1.5GHz*4).

At present, high-end mobile phone brands still use the Xiaolong 801 processor, which uses a 28nm process technology and a quad-core 2.5GHz.

Therefore, Xinghai Group only needs to produce Xingguang 01 to directly beat Xiaolong 801, the world's top mass-produced mobile phone chip.

However, the Xinghai Group wanted to disrupt the situation and didn't play cards according to the routine. Boiling frogs in warm water was too boring, so they directly fried them in a row, preventing Puntong from having a chance to resist.

Therefore, high-energy company executives saw the performance parameters of the two chips announced by Xinghai Group, so how could they be negotiated.

Panic!

"FU*K, Xinghai Group is the troublemaker!"

"They're trying to play us to death. Even if we mass-produce Xiaolong 810, it won't be able to compete with Xinghai Group's Xingguang 01."

"Is this World MO Day?"

The president and CEO of Gaotong, Yu Meng, was so panicked that he couldn't help but get angry and slap the table at the high-level meeting.

Pingtong has a lot of business in Huaguo, and Huaguo’s revenue accounts for 70% of Piaotong’s global revenue. Gaotong, not Chouguo, if Gaotong leaves the Huaguo market, it will be like a tree lacking soil.

This is also a very helpless reality. If Huaguo's high-end mobile phones do not use Xiaolong chips, they will not be competitive in the international market at all.

Now, Gaotong has a competitor, and it can't beat this competitor.

In this way, Pontong might lose the Huaguo supermarket.

This is also the reason why Yumeng was very panicked. Anyone would be like this.

"No one has obtained the Xinghai Group's chip yet. Maybe they sent out smoke bombs and released false news. How could the Xinghai Group develop such an outrageous processor." A senior executive couldn't believe it, feeling that this was a dream.

"I also hope it's fake, but since the Xinghai Group has announced it, we have to face this fact and admit that the Xinghai Group is too powerful. A long time ago, we laughed at Mazak's five-axis linkage CNC The machine tool was surpassed by the Xinghai Group, and now, in the past few months, the Xinghai Group has burned the CNC machine tool to the chip, damn it."

"Xinghai Group's entry into the chip field is still due to some/wonderful inaction."

"You also believe Mu Yang's excuses, you're out of your mind, if there is no interest in this industry, he won't come in either."

"Everyone, what shall we do now?"

"We can't get the accurate data of Xingguang 01 and Xingchen 01 for the time being. I don't know how many cards the Xinghai Group has yet to release. But judging from Xingchen 01, it is very hopeless." Eucalyptus was frustrated, like a baby Throwing a fist in front of an adult looks too weak and powerless.

He hoped that the news must be false, but that was just a fantasy.

"NO, we can't wait to die. We must speed up the research and development process of Xiaolong 820. Starting from this week, there will be no weekends, and we must work more than 15 hours of overtime every week."

A senior executive reminded: "Basically, if employees work excessive overtime, most of them will complain, which may backfire."

"Go to the fucking place to complain, if we wait until our company goes bankrupt, they won't have the opportunity to complain, Hua people can work more than ten hours a day, and only take one day off a month, they are workaholics, I doubt Xingchen 01 did it like this.

The Xinghai Group will not wait for us, as long as their production capacity catches up, we will lose the Huaguo chip market; if we lose the Huaguo market, we are almost doomed. "

Eucalyptus could not listen to the persuasion of his colleagues. He is very helpless now, feeling that there is no other way but to speed up the development of new chips.

And this battlefield is in the country of Hua, not in their country.

If in their country, this can also make some means.

When the Xinghai Group's top chips came out, not only the top executives of Pingtong, but other colleagues also panicked.

M shares just went public, and sure enough, Hummer shares soared.

While other M shares fell across the board, chip stocks fell sharply.

The stocks of the three major chip giants in the Ugly Country, Pingtong, Eagle Weida, and Botong, continued to fall. After half a day of opening, the total market value evaporated by about 50 billion U.S. dollars.

And Penny pass, the stock fell to 15%.

In the next few days, the stocks of these three chip giants will continue to fall, and the loss may be more than half.

The Xinghai Group's destructive power is too great. It is recognized as the king of the world's machinery. Now, it has crossed fields into the semiconductor industry. Who dares to underestimate it, and has already released samples.

According to the analysis of investment institutions, Xinghai Group’s chips have not yet been listed on the market. If it really hits the chips of Pingtong in the market, with the abnormal performance of Xingguang 01 and Xingchen 01, the stock of Pingtong will continue to fall, and it may fall to The trough, breaking the ten-year record.

Not only Ugly Chip stocks, but also chip-related stocks have fallen sharply.

...

BJ, a ring company.

"Mr. Liu, Xinghai Group has independently developed the Xingchen 01 chip, which has the highest performance parameters in the world. Do you know about this? What do you think?"

As soon as Mr. Liu went to work, he was blocked by a media reporter.

He is seventy years old, his legs and feet are inconvenient, and he doesn't have any bodyguards around him, so it's normal for him to be blocked by interested reporters.

However, when he heard what the reporter said, he was furious.

Fuck, do you need to say it!

Do you need to remind me!

Now the mainstream media is full of news about Xinghai Group's research and development of lithography machines and chips. He doesn't want to hear this news now!

"have no idea!"

Mr. Liu didn't want to answer this question, so he replied coldly, he just wanted to calm down now.

"Mr. Liu, it's like this. The performance parameters of Xingchen 01 are much better than that of Xiaolong 801 of Putong. It is not at the same level at all. It should be several levels worse..."

Listening to the reporter's nagging, Mr. Liu felt like a fly buzzing around his ear, wanting to slap him to death.

It was this media reporter again. At the beginning of the month, he also recognized his point of view, saying that developing chips is not so easy.

Now, the gun was turned on him, beeping at him as if forgetting what he said.

Go to FMD, media reporters are really not a good thing.

Media reporters saw Mr. Liu blushing. In fact, no one who can be a reporter is a fool.

He had already thought up the manuscript, and the title was "China-made chips have been successfully developed, where will Mr. Liu's old face be placed?"

Mr. Liu didn't know the "conscience of the media reporter", once he "didn't know", and the second time he "didn't pay attention to this information", and then ignored the reporter again.

At the same time, he secretly scolded Mu Yang: insidious and cunning.

A top scientist, what kind of collection is he doing, and he only exposes the chip after seeing himself refute it.

Mr. Liu felt that Mu Yang deliberately tricked him, definitely.

Moving heavy steps, step by step, I felt a little vain when I stepped on the ground, and I was a little out of breath just after standing for a while.

Go back to the office, sit down, drink tea, and deal with business.

About twenty minutes later, his secretary saw his calm face, thought for a while, and reminded, "Mr. Liu, there are suddenly some bad rumors about you on the Internet today. Do you want to ask the public relations department to deal with it?"

Hearing this, Mr. Liu rubbed his slightly hot forehead, he couldn't help losing his temper: "Get out! Don't mention this again!"

The secretary was embarrassed and left the chairman's office aggrieved.

Mr. Liu squinted his eyes, leaned on the chair, and didn't think about anything.

However, he was also worried about how bad the "rumours that were not good for him" that the secretary said was true.

After thinking about it, I still couldn't help turning on the computer to watch the news. I flipped through it casually, and I really found news reports related to him.

How long is this!

Suddenly there were many news reports about him.

One of the reports was the news that media reporters interviewed him less than half an hour ago.

[Mr. Liu, who had just been slapped in the face, was furious. In a fit of rage, he waved his hands away and refused to continue the interview with media reporters. Before he left, he said that the chip developed by Xinghai Group was nothing special, it was just a matter of luck...]

"Damn it, have I ever said that!

Out of nothing, out of nothing!

Cough, cough..."

Mr. Liu was so angry that he vomited blood, and there was a suffocation in his chest that he couldn't get out. He felt that this time, he would not be safe at the end of the day, and he would ruin his reputation.

Touching the bald forehead, the few remaining white hairs were solitary on one side.

...

Ugly country, relevant departments.

It is also this department that requires chip manufacturers not to sell chips and related technologies to Xinghai Group, and this department is quite awesome.

At this time, the leader in charge and several core personnel were discussing how to deal with the Xinghai Group.

"What's going on, what's going on with the Secret Service, why haven't we received any news about Xinghai Group's development of lithography machines, or even the development of wafers and chips!"

"Waste of taxpayers' money for doing nothing!"

"Calm down, it can't be their fault. The Xinghai Group has done a very good job of keeping secrets. We have sent dozens of people before and after. Not to mention them, even most of the Xinghai Group's employees don't know about the research and development of other departments in the company. Condition."

"So, gentlemen, what shall we do now?"

"The ability of Xinghai Group to develop a lithography machine must have stolen ASLM's technology."

"Nonsense, how do you judge that someone stole ASLM's technology?"

"Even if not, can the Xinghai Group bypass the EUV lithography machine technology? That's impossible, so it's probably just stealing the technology."

"The patent applications submitted by Xinghai Group are all fringe technologies, and the core technologies will not be made public."

"Anyone will do this, but this is not important at all. Well, actually, gentlemen, it doesn't matter whether Xinghai Group has stolen technology or not. As long as we firmly insist that Xinghai Group's technology is stolen, the patent case can be settled slowly."

"Then let ASLM cooperate. We will continue to issue announcements. It doesn't matter whether Xinghai Group has stolen technology, as long as the people believe it. We can't lose momentum to a company."

"Good idea, this will make Xinghai Group tired of dealing with such trivial matters." The leaders in charge have become accustomed to this kind of thing. In order to achieve their goals, some people have been charged with certain crimes for no reason. This is a strategic means, a process And fame doesn't matter.

Benefits are the key.

They can do anything as long as it's beneficial.
