Chapter 1694 Why should I help you?
Author: Shihanjie
Wang Lin came to LG Group to discuss acquiring semiconductor business!
Even Shen Xue and Zhou Zhou just knew that they were very curious. Why did Wang Lin think of it? Before, he had never heard of him talking about LG.
LG President Gu smiled slightly: "Mr. Wang Lin, we will not sell semiconductor and electronics businesses. This is the direction of our future development. Samsung and Hyundai are now investing heavily in the research and development of semiconductors and opening up the market for electronic products.
, We will only increase our investment and will not sell it. I also want to acquire other semiconductor companies!"
Wang Lin said: "I can understand your current mood. Semiconductors have changed human life and will continue to change our lives. Can I ask, how much money your company invests in semiconductor research and development every year?"
President Gu did not answer directly, but asked back: "Mr. Wang Lin, do you have some research on semiconductors?"
Wang Lin said: "Since 1947, the semiconductor industry has begun to improve and develop processes, and it is still developing continuously today. The improvement of process can be attributed to two categories, process and structure. Process improvement,
It can make smaller sizes to manufacture devices and circuits. The structural improvements can achieve better energy consumption control and higher reliability.”
This is said very professionally, which makes President Gu look at him with admiration.
Wang Lin understood that the other party wanted to know how much semiconductor knowledge he knew.
This will play a key role in whether the two companies can cooperate in the future.
Selling goods to know the home.
What's more, it's a company you have worked hard to start? It's like a child. If you don't have to give it away easily, you won't be given away easily. If you have to sell the company, you will find someone who knows what you know.
Wang Lin talked freely: "When it comes to semiconductors, we must not mention Fairchild Company. Although this company is no longer there, its legend has never disappeared."
President Gu said with interest: "Mr. Wang Lin, how old are you? Do you also know Fairchild Company?"
Both Shen Xue and Zhou Zhou heard about Fairy Child Company for the first time. They were very curious about what kind of company this is, and why did both Wang Lin and President Gu attach so much importance to it?
Wang Lin said: "Fairy Child Semiconductor, also known as Fairchild Semiconductor, was once the largest, most innovative and exciting semiconductor manufacturer in the world, laying a solid foundation for the growth of Silicon Valley.
Importantly, this company has also nurtured thousands of technical and management talents for Silicon Valley. It is worthy of being the West Point Military Academy in the electronics and computer industry and is a veritable cradle of talents. At a semiconductor summit in Silicon Valley in 1969, 400
There were only 24 former employees who were not fairy children.”
President Gu smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Wang Lin, you have really studied semiconductors. So, is Aixu Group really going to enter the semiconductor industry?"
Wang Lin said: "Yes. The development of semiconductors started from the United States. By the 1980s, Dongyang Memory emerged and surpassed the United States to become the leader of the industry. The strategy of the Oriental people is very simple, and it will always be 10% cheaper than American companies.
With its cost advantage, Toyo's production and export surpassed the US companies in one fell swoop, occupying 80% of the global market at its peak, and firmly occupying the leading position in the memory industry."
President Gu nodded.
Wang Lin said: "Unfortunately, the good times for the Eastern people were not long, and they were quickly suppressed by the United States. The United States used super high tariffs to deal with the cheap tactics of the Eastern people and instantly defeated the Eastern goods. Then, South Korea,
That is, the rise of your country's semiconductor industry. President Gu, how many years will your semiconductor industry have in its golden development period?"
President Gu then realized that the purpose of Wang Lin’s conversation was waiting for him here!
"We are different from Dongyang. Several of our domestic large companies have developed their own research and development, and we have core technologies."
"Is that true? Where do you sell your products? Just rely on your domestic market?"
"This?" President Gu hesitated.
Both of them understand that by far, the world's largest semiconductor producers and consumers are the United States.
If South Korea's semiconductor industry cannot be exported to the United States, it will lose its largest market in the world.
Wang Lin said: "President Gu, where do you think the global semiconductor industry will be the largest market in the future?"
President Gu said: "The future? I think it's the United States?"
Wang Lin said: "No, it's our country!"
President Gu said: "Huaxia?"
Wang Lin said: "It is our country! In a few years, our semiconductor market will be fully awakened, and our country will become the world's largest consumer of semiconductors!"
President Gu obviously didn't believe it very much.
He has been to our country and visited several big cities. In his opinion, although our country's development is changing with each passing day, it is still a world of difference compared to the United States.
Although our country has a large population, its industrial capacity and consumption capacity cannot be compared with the United States.
Even if our country is in the process of rapid development, can we catch up with the United States in the next ten years?
Wang Lin was full of confidence and said: "Semiconductor technology is the power to change the world. It has changed the United States, the East, and is changing South Korea. In the future, it will change our country's life and consumption. I believe that as long as we are willing to do it,
There is nothing wrong in this world that can stump us.”
President Gu fell into deep thought.
Chinese civilization is a great civilization. The people of this nation are hardworking, brave, full of creative wisdom, but very friendly.
If they decide to accomplish one thing, they will definitely succeed.
Just like the two bombs and one satellite back then.
Such difficult high-tech has also been conquered.
What about a semiconductor industry?
Wang Lin said: "President Gu please remember what I said today. It won't take long to come true. The global semiconductor production and consumption center market will be transferred to my country."
Around 2000, with the popularity of mobile phones, my country's semiconductor market grew, and a large number of semiconductor companies sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Foreign semiconductor companies also took a fancy to my country's market and came to invest in and set up businesses to share this big cake.
President Gu said: "I will remember your words. However, even if your country's semiconductor market develops, I will not sell the semiconductor industry I have in my hands."
Wang Lin smiled and said, "The situation keeps changing. We once believed in many truths that we didn't like, but in the end we found that it was just a joke!"
President Gu said: "Is this a dialectical materialist concept?"
Wang Lin smiled and said, "No matter what the theory is, I think I will definitely wait for good news from President Gu in three or five years."
President Gu pondered: "Mr. Wang Lin, if you are really willing to enter the semiconductor industry, I think there may be a possibility of cooperation between us?"
Wang Lin said: "Of course, if President Gu is willing to cooperate with us, we can find some time to sit down and have a good talk."
LG has invested in several factories in my country, and they are likely not to find Aixu Technology to manufacture OEM.
The cooperation between the two companies can only be limited to technical exchanges.
President Gu and Wang Lin became more and more speculative.
Time passes slowly.
President Gu's secretary coughed lightly and reminded the president: It's time to hold the meeting.
"You don't need to remind me." President Gu said, "You should notify them to have a meeting. I will not be present for today's meeting, and the vice president will preside over the meeting."
The secretary was shocked again!
She didn't say much, and agreed and left immediately.
Wang Lin said: "President Gu, we have disturbed you, right? Why don't you be busy first? Let's make an appointment to meet again?"
President Gu said: "It's nothing big, it's just a regular meeting. Mr. Wang Lin, is it related to the semiconductor industry?"
Wang Lin said: "Yes, we have reached a cooperation intention with a company in your country. We are here to sign a contract with him this time."
President Gu said: "Semiconductors are a large industry, but also a very small product, and a small circle. Mr. Wang Lin, your country's semiconductor industry is just starting out, you are in the forefront.
It's a good thing. With your financial strength, you can definitely make this industry bigger. I wonder which part of your main semiconductors do?"
Semiconductors are a large industry, including chip design, production, semiconductor raw materials, components, and integrated circuit design and manufacturing.
Among them, the manufacturing process of semiconductor chips is very complex. A production line involves more than 50 industries and involves 2,000 to 5,000 processes. In a chip factory, first of all, it is necessary to refine the "sand" into silicon, cut into wafers, and then process the wafers.
The factory includes two processes. The former process is divided into several main modules - photolithography, film, etching, cleaning, and injection; the latter process is mainly packaging-interconnection, wire bonding, and sealing.
Among them, lithography is the link between manufacturing and design.
Wang Lin has been thinking about this issue before.
His company cannot take over the entire industrial chain.
Semiconductors are no better than textiles, and it is difficult to complete the entire industrial chain in the country.
Chips are core technology and what Wang Lin wants to do the most.
But at this stage, it is unrealistic for him to make chips.
There is no corresponding foundation and industrial chain in China, so it can be provided for him to play.
Therefore, Wang Lin’s strategy is to first enter the semiconductor industry, that is, to take advantage of my country’s population and low wages to help others do OEM.
While doing foundry, you also seek opportunities to study chips.
Wang Lin said: "We are just starting out, there are only factories and workers, so we plan to first do the manufacturing of integrated circuits and components, which will develop into chip manufacturing in the future."
President Gu smiled slightly: "It's great, but if you want to make chips, I'm afraid the United States won't allow it. It's difficult for you to import related machinery and equipment."
Wang Lin said: "Yes, I also have concerns about this, so I want to find President Gu to cooperate. You can buy more lithography equipment now, and I will buy your semiconductor factory again. These equipment will be of course
I have it all. Of course, I'm willing to pay a premium for it."
President Gu laughed and said, "I knew that your use pictures are here!"
