I Am the President of the University

Outside the Executive Yuan.

"Director Zhang..."

Liu Deyin opened his mouth and was about to speak, but when he saw Zhang Zhongmou shaking his head at him, he was shocked and closed his mouth.

After the two got in the car, the driver was a relative of Zhang Zhongmou, who was completely reliable.

"Old Liu, there are a lot of people out there talking, so you should be careful about some sensitive topics." Zhang Zhongmou reminded.

"You are right, I was reckless just now." After Liu Deyin apologized, his eyes were a little unwilling.

"Director Zhang, do we really want to go to Ludao to build a factory?"

"Once we talk to the other party, there is no way the mainland will not seize this opportunity. We are too passive!"

"Passive?" Zhang Zhongmou sighed heavily.

Zhang Zhongmou looked at Liu Deyin and asked, "Do you think we will be embarrassed?"

Liu Deyin frowned, Zhang Zhongmou certainly wouldn't say this without reason, there must be a deeper meaning.

But he thought about it and still couldn't figure out what it meant.

"Isn't it?" Liu Deyin asked confused.

"Old Liu, you are confused!" Zhang Zhongmou glanced at Liu Deyin with disappointment, and his tone became a little more serious.

"Don't you understand the current situation? It's not a question of whether we will suffer a loss or not, but a question of whether the other party agrees to cooperate with us, TSMC!"

"If they don't cooperate with us, their production capacity is inferior to that of SMIC. How can they mass-produce optical chips?" Liu Deyin didn't understand.

Optical Core Research Center is responsible for chip design, and Guanghua Integrated Circuit is responsible for chip manufacturing. The former is easy to say, but the latter is not so easy to do.

Even if there are industrial and technological advantages, if we don't find a foundry, how much production capacity can the factory built by Guanghua have?

Among chip foundries, TSMC is the well-deserved overlord. In addition, the distance between the two places is so close, only separated by the Treasure Island Strait, and the transportation cost is not expensive.

He really couldn't think of any reason why the other party could reject TSMC.

"According to common sense, there is no problem with your idea, but Guanghua's guy is not the master of playing cards according to common sense." Zhang Zhongmou smiled bitterly, feeling quite helpless.

"Isn't the photonic screen amazing? Samsung's screen technology is completely incompetent. As a result, Guanghua does not seek cooperation with foundries. It stands to reason that if the technology is licensed, won't the production capacity increase?"

"In the end, Guanghua had to invest in building his own factory, research the technology himself, and then produce and sell it himself, or license the technology later."

"With this person's personality, why do you think he would definitely find an OEM for optical cores?"

Listening to Zhang Zhongmou's words, Liu Deyin twitched the corner of his mouth, and a black line appeared on his head.

A normal person would look for a foundry, because although chip foundry costs a lot of money, it is nothing compared to the selling price.

You only need to pay a little benefit, and you can get more benefits. It seems that no one will sacrifice the near for the far.

Building a factory yourself is troublesome, and there are various labor costs, machine depreciation costs, etc.

But the other party is already doing it, so it’s not impossible to produce it on your own without finding an OEM.

"You have to understand our situation clearly. Guanghua can reject us, but we cannot reject Guanghua!" Zhang Zhongmou emphasized emphatically.

"I understand. I'm afraid that there will be problems with the Executive Yuan during the talks." Liu Deyin got a headache when he thought about this. After all, the Executive Yuan is the real power controller of TSMC. If it loses control then it will be troublesome.

Zhang Zhongmou shook his head, not worried about this at all.

"Don't worry about this. Although President Chiang of the Executive Yuan is a mediocre person, Vice President Xie is still capable. They don't know the importance of TSMC. Regarding this cooperation, the Executive Yuan will be more active than us."

"If that's the case, I'll be relieved." Liu Deyin breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, when is our current production plan approximately?" Zhang Zhongmou suddenly thought of something and asked quickly.

"It has been scheduled until February next year. As for the subsequent orders, we are still negotiating." Liu Deyin said, with some understanding, and then asked, "Will subsequent orders be temporarily stopped?"

"It's almost February next year. I expect that the optical core will be released around this time at the latest. Later, we will allocate all production capacity to optical core production. From now on, we will not accept other orders for the time being." Zhang Zhongmou closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while. Finally make this decision.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements when I get back later." Liu Deyin nodded.

With some words from Zhang Zhongmou, he had some idea.

The cooperation between TSMC and Guanghua should be facilitated as long as nothing unexpected happens.

The Executive Yuan does not want to see TSMC collapse;

Guanghua can also increase production capacity through cooperation with TSMC;

As for TSMC, although they have to cut a lot of meat, they are at least surviving.

Sometimes running a business does not depend on how much money you make, but whether you can sustain it. As long as you can sustain it long enough and beat your peers to death, you will win.

Three days later.

…

Ludao, Guanghua University.

"This building is our main building in Guanghua, Guanghua Building. It was built in 1988..."

Chen Hao personally explained to the people around him enthusiastically, looking like a tour guide.

"Director Liu, I will take you to visit the Optical Core Research Center later."

"Okay, it's too troublesome for Principal Chen." Director Liu, who did not want to be named, smiled and nodded.

"No trouble, Director Liu came all the way from the capital. As the host, of course I have to entertain him well." After saying that, Chen Hao looked at the leader, who seemed quite easy-going on the outside.

After shopping around, the group got into three white cars and headed to the Optical Core Research Center.

Chen Hao and Director Liu got into a car alone.

With the wind blowing, Chen Hao lowered his voice and asked Director Liu: "Director Liu, what do you say about Baodao?"

"Baodao wants to invite us to have four-party talks." Director Liu said lightly, and then asked the question to Chen Hao.

"How does Principal Chen think we should respond?"

"How to respond?"

Chen Hao laughed and said in a relaxed tone: "I think they made a mistake."

"How do you say that?" Director Liu asked curiously.

"The initiative is in our hands, and they are the ones who are passive. Why should we go there? It should be them who come over!" Chen Hao said rudely.

"Let the two parties from Baodao come to Ludao for talks?" Director Liu's eyes widened and he seemed a little hesitant.

Seeing the other party's hesitation, Chen Hao smiled casually and said, "Don't worry, this and the meeting on Ludao also shows an attitude that the other party will not refuse."

"That's true." Director Liu thought for a while and agreed to Chen Hao's plan.

Although the superiors attached great importance to the conversation with Baodao this time, after all, it was through the light of Guanghua, and before coming, the leader also asked that all matters must be communicated with Guanghua.

The most important thing is to promote this cooperation. As for what can be obtained, it is better to have less than to cause the cooperation to fail.

Treasure Island.

There was a roar in a certain room.

ps: The last chapter was messed up. It hurts. I hope it can be released tomorrow.

I'm not in good condition today, it's only one chapter, and my writing skills are not good either. I'll sort out the plot behind it, and hope to write more tomorrow.

Feel sorry!
