Chapter 148 Convince me
It has been two and a half years since Su Yuanshan was reborn.
It has been two and a half years since the goal of establishing a fab.
It is now August 1993. Even if it follows the historical trajectory, a certain mahjong organization will nominally announce its dissolution in half a year.
Because of the fall of the Northern Empire, Batong lost its greatest significance and became in name only.
However, even if it is still in name only, it is of guiding significance as long as it still exists.
(I won't go into details here. There are four main reasons for the cancellation of the eight-tube: the end of the Cold War, 2: the country actively enters the pass (world), 3: it is abused in the hands of "one's own people", 4: There has been a special ban on arms sales to the mainland in a certain year, and the sanctions overlap with the eight-tube. And in fact, even if it is wow, it is mainly military. The committee clearly involves cutting-edge civilian products.)
At the beginning, Su Yuanshan decided to cooperate with Ni, especially Nec. Nec has tasted the sweetness of cooperation with Shougang. In addition, both sides have maintained a good relationship for a long time. Su Yuanshan has reason to believe that without the constraints of the agreement document, Nec will definitely help him build the wafer factory - the 909 project in his previous life, and Huahong Nec is like this.
It’s a pity that the people of Ni have always been inscribed, so that the 0.5 microns that Huahong was just built and lagged behind by nearly three generations.
Of course, Su Yuanshan chose to cooperate with Nec, so he would definitely not allow them to continue to work. Moreover, as a private enterprise, Yuanxin would not study as long as the government. If the time is controlled well, it would be able to be only one generation behind.
But with the development of Xinghai in Silicon Valley, Su Yuanshan gradually changed his mind.
In particular, the gradual deepening of the relationship with Deyi made Su Yuanshan see a beautiful possibility.
When it comes to building factories, no company is faster than Texas Instruments - because it has a Zhang Rujin.
If the ground could be broken in 1994, Zhang Rujin would just come back from Singapore. When he finished building the factory, he was just the age to be able to take money and leave after he left.
With Lao Zhang, he doesn't have to worry about the wafer fab.
...
Su Yuanshan took a sip of coffee and then quietly waited for Vincenti's reply.
Vincenti coughed softly, and a smile rose on his face: "Su, it's difficult."
"Do you mean the cooperation? Or the equipment?"
"There is no problem with cooperation...the equipment is problematic, but the most problematic is process technology." Vincenti said calmly: "You should understand that these cannot be exported freely."
Su Yuanshan smiled: "How much does that mean?"
"6 inches 0.8 microns, the highest."
"What if I can exit freely?" Su Yuanshan glanced at the distance and then withdrew his gaze: "You should understand that Batong will definitely die."
"If you can export freely..." Vincent frowned: "It can meet your requirements, but... we don't have the need to build a factory now, especially chip factories."
Su Yuanshan sighed softly.
In my memory, Deyi did not build a factory in China, and since 1995, Deyi has slowed down the construction of wafer fabs. And in the semiconductor winter a few years later, it even sold out tears? Many factories were sold.
"In fact, it can be built. At present, there is a lot of demand for chips in China? You can make one if you build a factory."
Vincent smiled: "You can make money without building."
“…”
This inevitably made Su Yuanshan feel a little resentful.
The biggest problem in China nowadays is that chips are almost entirely imported? The domestic production lines are almost at full capacity to produce basic electronic parts such as diodes and transistors that use a lot of basic electronic parts - do you ask them to produce CPUs? Sorry, there is no technology? There is no space.
Even if a company like Yuanxin designs awesome chips, no one in China can do it? It can only be sent to overseas OEM.
So as Vincenti said? Why did he come to build a chip factory? How nice it would be to wait for it to come.
He is not here to help the poor...
"It's boring." Su Yuanshan pursed his lips: "I'll go to Ni people."
"..." Vincenti was slightly stunned: "You are not going to convince me?"
"..." Su Yuanshan blinked and said inexplicably: "Why do you need to be convinced? What do you need to be convinced?"
"People the advantages of building a factory in the mainland." Vincent said speechlessly: "Now our layout has been completed as a whole, and we have also understood the demand of the mainland market. Now the most demanding one is basic components. If there is no reason? Why should I come to the mainland to build a factory?"
Su Yuanshan was also stunned? Then he patted his head.
He forgot that not everyone can know how fast the mainland will develop in the future - in the end, even Intel will come to build factories in China.
Don’t say that you are now a “big” customer of Deyi. Once you build a factory, it means you have to sell the benefits to Yuanxin…
Thinking of this, Su Yuanshan was cheerful? He smiled and said, "According to the development trend of chip design in the mainland, in the next three to five years, a large number of excellent IC design companies will surely emerge. Do you have to admit this?"
Vincent nodded: "Hormally admit it."
"At present, the relationship between the mainland and Niguo and the island is rising, so you have to admit this, right?"
"admit."
"Then even if we follow the principle of proximity, the orders of these companies will flow to the surrounding areas... But if we cooperate with Yuanxin, we can build a most advanced chip factory in China? These orders will definitely not be able to escape." Su Yuanshan said, "At the same time, Yuanxin must also need an advanced wafer factory to meet our design and chipping needs."
The meaning of this last sentence is more obvious? Yuanxin must be built in this wafer fab. If you don’t help Deyi, then we have to find someone else.
At that time, because Xinghai has invested in Deyi, the order will definitely be handed over to Deyi, which cannot be escaped. But Yuanxin has no agreement, and Su Yuanshan will run away if he is unhappy at that time... Then Deyi will suffer a huge loss.
Vincenti thought carefully for a few seconds and nodded slowly: "But the limit is always there."
"In this way, let's not talk about the shares of both parties... Yuanxin first invests part of the funds in the early stage of the factory infrastructure. If there is no limit within a year, we will build the factory when. What do you think?"
Vincenti looked at him in surprise: "Are you going to bet?"
The bet here is naturally cancelled within one year.
Su Yuanshan smiled and shook his head: "It's not a bet, but a judgment based on the situation."
"If you agree, we can sign a memorandum. If you don't agree... I really want to find Ni people."
Vincenti shook his head: "No, I really want to know, what if there are still restrictions in a year?"
"Then you can only settle for the second best." Su Yuanshan looked calm: "Or... it's okay to build a R&D center of 1,000 acres."
“…”
Vincenti was silent for a few seconds and said cautiously: "I still need to discuss with other senior officials."
(I owe a chapter first... I can't stand it anymore)
Chapter completed!
