Jing Gao and Zhang Rujing, a 70-year-old man, met in a special hotel box in Zhangjiang.

In mid-April, the mid-spring night was only slightly cooler. After the dishes were served, the dishes were steaming on the big round table, and the fragrance was overflowing, making everyone in the box appetite.

Jing Gao is here with him, Liu Sumei, Dong Youwei, Cheng Yu, and Guan Yujia. Zhang Rujing brought an assistant, Ms. Wang Yan.

Everyone chatted casually, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was quite harmonious, chatting and laughing.

Jing Gao knows why? Because he and Zhang Rujing have a common language. This is completely different from seeing Jiang Shangyi in the morning. The morning meeting was pure business.

In 1997, Zhang Rujing applied for early retirement from Texas Instruments, who had worked for 20 years, and returned to Baodao to establish World University Semiconductor. After two or three years, it took one-third of TSMC’s production capacity and was immediately acquired by TSMC.

This opened the curtain of grievances between him and Zhang Zhongmou. At that time, there were rumors in the world that Zhang Zhongmou conspired with the major shareholder of World University Semiconductor to initiate the acquisition of World University Semiconductor while Zhang Rujing was not prepared.

Regarding this rumor, Zhang Rujing has refuted the rumor many times, and he participated in the negotiation throughout the process. In the end, TSMC paid 8.5 times the stock price of World University Semiconductor to complete the acquisition.

But, you taste it, savor carefully.

Assuming that Zhang Rujing did not sell Unimicron, 20 years later, even if Unimicron could not catch up with TSMC's position in the chip foundry field, would he still not be able to catch up with UMC? This is more than a premium of 8.5 times?

Moreover, as a manager, the boss of World University Semiconductor, he resigned after being acquired, and changed from a powerful semiconductor boss to a technician with nothing. Do you think this is good?

It's nothing more than that TSMC used big bullying to bully the small and swallowed the world semiconductor at a premium. This is Yangmou, clearly! What are the consequences of Shida Semiconductor’s refusal to acquire? Look at Zhang's style of doing things, as long as anyone threatens him, he will start a legal battle!

With a stick in one hand and a carrot in the other, the shareholders and employees of World University Semiconductor know how to choose. Of course, the shareholders of World University Semiconductor did not lose, and the investment received a generous return. When employees enter a larger enterprise, their pensions will be guaranteed in the future.

The only loser is Zhang Rujing!

In 2000, Zhang Rujing went to the mainland to build a factory, which was warmly welcomed and valued. The patriotism of the old man is respectable! You must know how poor the domestic semiconductor technology was in 2000!

Foreign capital comes in to make money, who is here to bring technology to the country? This is not called patriotism, what is it?

Zhang Rujing lived up to expectations and called about 300 semiconductor engineers to go north. Most of them were in the old departments of Texas Instruments and World University Semiconductor. He quickly upgraded China's semiconductor technology from four generations behind the world's top level to only one generation behind.

SMIC became the fourth largest semiconductor in the world.

Then, the old routine in the field of chip foundry began, and TSMC initiated a lawsuit against SMIC. In 2009, SMIC lost the lawsuit. After the court ruling, Zhang Rujing and the then chairman of SMIC Fei Hong Kong Island negotiated with TSMC.

Settlement conditions: compensation of 200 million US dollars in cash, plus 10% of the equity. In addition, Zhang Rujing resigned and signed a competition agreement, banning chip-related work for three years from 2010.

SMIC immediately fell into years of chaos. It was not until Liang Mengsong took office that he turned the situation around and turned losses into profits.

So, from this perspective, is TSMC hateful? Very hateful! He delayed the destruction of our construction and development of the semiconductor industry chain time.

Some people are about to say: You are plagiarizing other people's technology, are you justified? Good punishment!

This makes sense at first glance. Intellectual property protection! However, in the field of semiconductor chip manufacturing, can you 100% bypass the industry leader TSMC's process technology? Can it be bypassed? Can't get around!

There will always be fouls in some places. Otherwise, why did TSMC sued his leaving engineer so many times?

Then should we develop semiconductor technology? Should we make our own chips? Just watch TSMC go to our necks forever? The mainland is not allowed to have the most advanced chip manufacturing plant! Do we need our fundamental interests?

Violation of laws and regulations on the protection of intellectual property rights, SMIC should be punished as well. Its ten years have stagnated. However, what Zhang XX did, should he pay a painful price when the situation should be met?

I think it is necessary.

Don't think that TSMC is flawless and never violates the law!

…

…

After Zhang Rujing left SMIC, he founded an LED factory in 2010. This is an area not prohibited in his competition agreement. In 2014, Xinsheng Semiconductor was established in Modu Lingang, mainly for the production and manufacturing of wafers.

The manufacture of silicon chips is based on wafers, using photolithography technology to manufacture integrated circuits.

Xinsheng Semiconductor is a factory that provides wafers.

The old man is 70 years old and is seeking to create a new chip manufacturing plant. He wants to go IDM mode. Investors are being negotiated everywhere. It happened that Phoenix Group entered the field of chip manufacturing, and the early contacts between the two parties were very pleasant.

The meeting now is to discuss the details.

Zhang Rujing didn't drink, and said with emotion: "I haven't been to Zhangjiang for a long time. Today's meeting with Mr. Jing, setting the dinner here, made me feel a lot of emotion."

Jing Gao said: "I admire Dr. Zhang resolutely going north to build the factory 17 years ago. However, the resignation of Dr. Zhang in 2009 is really a major loss for SMIC."

Zhang Rujing watched it upside down, and said calmly: "At that time something happened to the company, and the lawsuit is familiar. Someone will always be responsible."

How can he feel no pain in his heart after leaving the company he had founded for ten years? However, his life has to continue to move forward.

"Later someone wanted to ask me to go back, but I didn't agree. I said, I will not go back, I will not cause trouble to others, nor cause trouble to myself. Mr. Jing, do you know? You invited me to build a factory. It is likely to attract TSMC lawsuits in the future."

This sentence, Zhang Rujing said very confidently. There is still some pain.

Confidence, because he is a recognized master of factory building, he will be able to build a chip manufacturing plant and put it into production in two or three years.

Pain, TSMC is a dark cloud weighing on all chip manufacturers. As long as you grow up, he will definitely sue you and eliminate potential threats. And he has been destroyed his career twice by TSMC. He was not sure if he could stand the third time.

Jing Gao smiled heartily and said firmly: "Dr. Zhang, it's just a lawsuit. I think I can withstand it. Today is different!"

Understanding Wang has taken office. The domestic market is already the world's largest chip consumer market. TSMC also has factories in the mainland. TSMC also wants to play tricks like 2009. this will not work!

The Phoenix Group can at least get the terms of the Samsung defendant.

Zhang Rujing smiled, took a bite, and said, "Mr. Jing, I'm negotiating with Qingdao. I am preparing to build an IDM-mode chip factory. Phoenix Group's Jinling factory should set foot in Foundry, right?"

There are three operating modes in the semiconductor industry: IDM, Fabless, and Foundry.

Fabless means only design, not independent production, represented by Qualcomm and Huawei HiSilicon; Foundry means no design, only OEM production. Both SMIC and TSMC belong to this model.

IDM is a combination of the two, integrating design and production processes, and the overall profit is higher than design and foundry. Its representative company is Intel, which produces and sells itself. But this model is actually backward.

Intel only has 10nm process technology, which lags behind TSMC and Samsung. The fundamental reason is that the scale of self-production and self-sales is difficult to meet the funds needed for new process technology research.

Jing Gao said frankly: "Yes. I have a chip manufacturing factory in Jingzhou. This factory is enough to meet the needs of Coolpad mobile phones. I will get involved in foundry at the Jinling factory. Moreover, I hope to use Magic Microelectronics. 90nm lithography machine developed."

He was in line with the netizen (Ren Zhi) on meager that day, and aroused his unhappiness. He told Guan Yujia that Phoenix Group would also build lithography machines.

The lithography machine is not built from scratch~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He has instructed Shanhaijing Semiconductor to contact Modu Microelectronics and start cooperative research and development. This is a huge project with many difficulties.

To give the simplest example, in 2008, Modu Microelectronics developed a 90nm front-end lithography machine. However, because the core components were purchased from abroad, they were immediately embargoed by international manufacturers.

As a result, the lithography machine of Modu Microelectronics has become a decoration, and it can only go to the back of the lithography machine to meet some of the needs that come over.

The lithography machine is divided into the front and the back according to the purpose. The front-end lithography machine is used to manufacture chips. The latter lithography machine is mainly used for chip packaging.

But, in any case, Phoenix Group has already set off.

Zhang Rujing frowned and said: "The generation gap is too far. Mr. Jing, it is difficult to make a profit like this." The words were very euphemistic, and they already showed the meaning of rejection.
