Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

After the Little New Year is over, the family packs up their things and prepares to return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year.

Yang Dongxu, who had almost handled everything and felt very relaxed, felt that he would be able to have a good year when he returned home this time. However, a message instantly swept all his good mood into the trash.

"There is currently no way to analyze the lithography machine technology, and many core components are currently not sure to be disassembled and put back together. At the same time, some key technology nodes are kept very confidential.

At the same time, the U.S. Department of Commerce seems to have no need to take a break and is keeping an eye on this matter 24 hours a day. There is currently no way to obtain the key technology of the lithography machine through retroactive means."

Zhang Yue reports on Yang Dongxu.

"I knew it wasn't that simple." Although I had expected it to be like this.

He is so interested in the lithography machine, and the United States is not a fool. Even with William as an intermediary, everyone knows the matter, and it is impossible for the United States to let go easily.

But when things really got to this point and it was determined that there was no way to succeed, my mood was even worse than I imagined.

"Let's put this matter aside for now and talk about it after the New Year." Yang Dongxu said after he calmed down.

A lot of technology was used in this battle. Although I got the photolithography machine I wanted, I didn't get the technology.

What's more important is that lithography machines can only be used abroad. If the encryption of many key parts cannot be parsed, then this technology cannot be brought into the country.

Because the photolithography machines are abroad, the chip manufacturing industry chain can only be placed abroad, so if there is any trouble in the chip in the future, people will still be stuck.

Who puts your child in other people's hands? So when something happens, people will naturally take advantage of you in a matter of minutes.

Therefore, it can be said that he suffered a loss in this round of exchanges.

But compared to the past, you couldn't even see the lithography machine, let alone use it. Now at least you have the opportunity to have close contact with the lithography machine.

As for whether he can successfully imitate it in the end, he can only place his hope on those technical personnel. There is no point in worrying about this matter.

"Judging from the news from William, there is no possibility of the road being blocked by the American side, and it seems that they still want to talk about it," Zhang Yue said.

"I think he just wants to eat shit, so ignore them. Let's put this matter aside for now and don't rush to get on the pole, otherwise the other party will really think how eager we are." Yang Dongxu snorted coldly.

Does the United States really want to talk, or does William want to use this matter to gain more smartphone technology or voice.

This Yang Dongxu is not clear yet, but there is no need to find out.

Because he has determined that he will not release any smartphone technology in the next year. Honor’s leadership in mobile phones must be fully maintained.

Anyway, the main battlefield for commercial competition is still in traditional energy. As for the high-tech field, the battlefield is also mainly concentrated in aerospace.

Although smartphones have amazed the world and become a unicorn that has taken off, the United States is not blind. Apple is still moving very fast. In the first half of next year, it will be preparing to launch its own Crazy Love 4 around the world.

So at present, it seems that the United States has great ambitions to dominate the smartphone market, but in fact, the other side is mostly trying to explore.

That is to say, if there are jujubes but no jujubes, you can make a profit if you hit them. If you can't hit them, forget about it. At present, the main focus will not be on this.

Therefore, the problem of chips getting stuck will not be a hidden danger for at least five years. What's more, the lithography machine is now in the UK. I am not saying that if the United States gets stuck, I will have no room to struggle.

Therefore, many things can be detoured before the face is completely broken. In such a big environment, as long as there is no problem in the brain, smartphone-related technologies will not be released.

Of course, although this matter is not urgent for the time being, it is a core issue that must be resolved.

It's just that now the other party's mouth is wide open, and you can't go up the pole and deliver meat to the other party's mouth for the time being. Otherwise, it will be like now, you pay in full, and the other party will deliver half of the goods, and there will be a safe on top.

So don't be too impatient. This matter needs to be handled slowly if it is not urgent.

"You ask Han Jun to communicate with William. The chip production line will focus on developing automotive chips in the future."

"Car chips are not made into smartphone chips?" Zhang Yue looked surprised.

“I want to do it too, but how can a newly assembled production line be able to produce the most cutting-edge smartphone chips?

In order to ensure the leading edge of Honor mobile phones, mobile phone chips must be handed over to chip manufacturers like Samsung and TSMC with top technology and mature manufacturing processes.

At the same time, the chip production line that we spent a lot of money to build cannot be idle, right? So let’s practice with car chips first. Currently, car chips only have a central console and don’t require much calculation. They are relatively easy to produce and are suitable for practice.”

"Although the process of automobile chips and the process of mobile phone chips are both chips, there are quite a few differences. If you start with automobile chips, then it will be quite expensive to rectify them back to mobile phone chips.

And then a large number of technical personnel will be needed to spend time and energy to familiarize themselves with mobile phone chip manufacturing, which will cost a lot of money and will also waste time." Zhang Yue couldn't help but say.

He understands what his big boss means, and he also knows that if Honor Mobile wants to stay ahead, everything can only be done with high precision.

As the core chip of a mobile phone, it must not be shoddy.

But in his opinion, even if the chip production line is set up in the UK, the chips currently produced cannot meet the requirements of Honor mobile phones.

But meeting the requirements of other smartphone manufacturers should not be a big problem. Those mobile phone manufacturers need to occupy the mid-to-low-end market, and their requirements for mobile phone chips are not that high.

Therefore, the chips produced in the UK are first supplied to these mobile phone manufacturers, making money while innovating their own technology. Over time, the chips produced in the UK will eventually meet the chip demand for Honor mobile phones.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now instead of making mobile phone chips, we are going to make some car chips. Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?

"I know what you are talking about, but there is no way to do it for the time being. Now you go and seize the mid-to-low-end smartphone chip market.

What do you think of the established chip manufacturers Samsung, TSMC, and notebook technology companies?

Will they join forces to deal with you, or simply stop producing high-precision chips for you? What should you do?

At the same time, the United States has paid attention to the Honor mobile phone. You are building a smartphone chip production line and the technology is constantly innovating. You said that they will not find a way to strangle you to death?

The production line is now in the UK. It is not convenient for us to do anything in China. Although William is our partner.

But if he really breaks his skin, he will definitely choose to side with the United States, because the interests involved between him and the United States are greater.

So the method you mentioned is feasible, but it is only feasible for manufacturing low-end and mid-range chips. Once you master the ability to manufacture high-end smart phone chips, you will find that there are enemies everywhere, and there are a group of them who can eat you at any time.

enemies."

"Then we spend such a huge price to buy a photolithography machine..." Zhang Yue looked at his big boss with a puzzled expression.

"Buying optical technology is not the goal. Obtaining the technology of photolithography machines is the ultimate goal. Now we are being guarded like thieves and we can't do anything."

Therefore, we can only produce and analyze technology at the same time. Automotive chips are undoubtedly a good choice. In terms of automobiles, the United States has basically given up resistance.

Their home market has been occupied by laptops and German cars, and what they like to do most now is to directly take shares and stand behind the scenes to share money.

Rather than like before, he had to dominate and be the first, and he would beat anyone who dared to challenge him.

Therefore, the development of automotive chips will not arouse too much vigilance from the United States. At worst, if they have to get involved, just share their share.

In short, so much money has been invested, not for lithography machines or smartphone chips, but for technology. Technology for manufacturing chips and technology for manufacturing lithography machines.

As long as you master this technology, you can just throw away the photolithography machine in the UK and don't need it anymore.

Besides, who told you that automotive chips have no future?

Although a car is a big item and cannot be carried by everyone like a mobile phone. But if this is done well, the profit will be no less than that of a mobile phone. After all, the quantity cannot be compared with that of smartphones, but the profit margin of a single product is large enough."

"The automobile market is indeed quite big." Zhang Yue couldn't help but say.

As Yang Dongxu's assistant, he can be said to have learned about all the companies owned by Yang Dongxu.

Not everything is clear, but the general information and market are still clear.

Take the automobile market, for example, which has been hailed as one of the three hottest industries in China in recent years. The other two popular industries are real estate and the Internet. This shows how bright the future of the automobile industry is.

But compared to the core of a car, which is the engine, not the chip. The core of a mobile phone is the chip. So after investing so much, he always felt a little bit shortchanged by not making mobile phone chips but car chips.

"Okay, let me inform you, and let Han Jun organize technical personnel to go over and work with our chip research and development team to understand what is going on with the lithography machine and chip manufacturing technology."

"Prince William may have objections," Zhang Yue said.

William's side was so active in acquiring photolithography machines this time that they even did not hesitate to offend the consortium in the United States and also gained a lot of human resources.

The purpose is to get a piece of the smart phone pie.

In this way, Yang Dongxu is in charge of smartphone production technology, and he controls smartphone chip technology. The two of them can sit on the negotiating table again on an equal footing and discuss how to divide the smartphone pie.

Now Yang Dongxu suddenly said that the chip production line will no longer produce smartphone chips, but will instead produce automotive chips.

Is the British automobile industry more thorough than what is sold in the United States?

Is he messing with car chips?

"Let me summarize the reasons I just mentioned and tell him. It's not that I don't want to develop smartphone chips, but that the United States and the current major chip giants don't agree.

If the Honor mobile phone is jointly blocked by the top chip manufacturers because of its own chip development.

Next year, Apple will release its own smartphone globally. In addition to him, there will be a large number of smartphone manufacturers following him.

Although most of them are now targeting the mid- to low-end market, as long as they have enough brains, everyone knows that their ultimate goal is definitely to be number one.

Therefore, in order to maintain the advantages that Honor mobile phones have finally established, we naturally have to give in on this point.

At the same time, if he is really unwilling, he can set up his own research and development team to do research on his own. Anyway, the photolithography machine is in his hands, and he doesn't have to do whatever he wants to do.

In order to avoid suspicion and to make Americans feel that we are honest, our team specializes in automotive chips and we will talk about mobile phone chips later."

William must be unhappy, because this is equivalent to something being done to him.

But in the end he will definitely compromise, because without the support of Yang Dongxu's technical team, it would be really hard to develop chips from scratch.

More importantly, the United States does not want him to do this. It wants him to follow Yang Dongxu to develop automotive chips.

So it seems that Yang Dongxu agreed to let him set up his own smartphone chip research and development team, but in fact he only has one way. That is to develop car chips instead of mobile phone chips.

As for William, he was very unhappy because of this incident.

He, Yang Dongxu, can't throw away his arms to develop smartphone chips, and he's still not happy.

Besides, William is not a believer. This time, Yang Dongxu took out a lot of technology to replace the photolithography machine, and this guy had a lot of personal stuff in it.

So since you are not good men and women, don't engage in those hypocritical mutual negotiations and comfort each other.

If you waste time grinding your teeth, you might as well take a nap.
