Rebirth of Cyber ​​Hegemony

Vol 3 Chapter 495: : Epistar foundry

"Chen, congratulations."

"President Ren?"

"Why, am I weird to call you?"

At noon, Chen Yu received a call from Ren Zhengfei.

"That's not the case, it's mainly because I dug up the two generals before, and I feel sorry for it."

"Mr Chen is humble. Gao Ji and He Hongbo are both talents. I hope you treat them well."

"President Ren rest assured, this is natural."

"I also believe Mr. Chen. By the way, when are you free to meet?"

"Mr. Ren, something?"

"I want to talk to you about the mobile phone business."

"let me see……"

Chen Yu considered the future schedule.

Of course, he didn't understand Ren Zhengfei's idea for a while, and he didn't promise to be so fast.

Ren Zhengfei probably also noticed Chen Yu's hesitation and said, "Don't think about it, when will you be free and when we will talk again."

"At that time, I will call Mr. Ren."

hang up the phone.

Chen Yu is a little strange.

Ren Zhengfei wants him to talk about the mobile phone business?

I don't know how to find my own Pk.

Thinking that Huawei's mobile phones have not even been sold out, Chen Yu feels a little bit of accomplishment.

However, Ren Zhengfei is not so boring.

This gangster-level figure is extremely powerful in his heart.

Not to mention that it has defeated their mobile phone business now, even if it has an impact on their core business, he can still fight with you to the end.

Just like Huawei now.

They are inferior to Motorola, Nokia, Ericsson, and Samsung in the communications business. But they finally surpassed a series of foreign giants by relying on their incomparable fighting spirit.

"Forget it, don't think about them."

Chen Yu couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he didn't think about it any more.

Do your own thing first.

Tianyu mobile phone's seizure of the ultra-low-end market is just the first step for Huanyu Technology to enter the mobile phone field.

Chen Yu doesn't want to just be in the low-end market.

In the future, Chen Yu will also enter the mid-range, mid-to-high-end, high-end, top-end, and even top-tier, cutting-edge markets.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu called Wu Kai and Liang Bo over.

"Liang Bo, how is your situation here?"

"Mr. Chen, we have begun data research and preliminary design of mid-range mobile phones."

"What about this one technically?"

"We have made breakthroughs in dual card dual standby technology, including resistive screen technology. At present, we have applied for patents for both technologies."

"good."

Chen Yu nodded: "Wu Kai, you let the research team conquer the next field, capacitive screen."

"Yes."

Wu Kai nodded.

Although he is not particularly aware of the development of resistive screens and capacitive screens.

But Wu Kai never doubted Chen Yu's vision.

Then, Chen Yu went to the chip open source department.

"Manager He, get used to it."

"Very good. Mr. Chen, just call me Ting Bo."

He Tingbo is a technology madman, he immediately took up the job as soon as he joined Huanyu Technology.

To this end, Chen Yu assigned He Tingbo to the chip open source department to get familiar with the entire chip open source plan.

"Mr. Chen, I didn't expect our Chip Open Source Foundation to be so huge."

"It won't work if it's not huge, we start from scratch, and everything has to be considered."

"It seems that I am right to join Huanyu Technology."

"Are you only confirming now?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "I was fooled by me before, right?"

"No, but after joining the company, we became more aware of our goals."

"Well, but we can't completely rely on the open source foundation."

After speaking, Chen Yu said to Li Biqing on one side: "Dean, how are the talks with Center International?"

"all the best."

"Chen, Center International, should we process the chips ourselves?"

He Hongbo was extremely surprised: "It's not necessary for the time being."

Although He Hongbo has always wanted to make a purely domestic Chinese core.

But what He Hongbo studied is also the chip architecture. As for chip processing, other companies will naturally do it.

For example, Center International.

Center International is the foundry of Epistar.

The so-called wafer refers to semiconductor transistors or integrated circuit substrates.

To manufacture a chip, it is not only the chip architecture, but also the wafer processing.

However, wafer processing is a very complicated technology, and most companies cannot master it.

There are only a dozen companies in the world that can master wafer processing.

Center International is one of them.

However, before that, the average enterprise would not do chip processing.

Generally, if a company wants to make its own chips, he only needs to create the chip architecture first, and then throw it to the wafer foundry. It's like making a mobile phone. You only need to prepare the design drawings and electronic components, and I can assemble them for you. Of course, Epistar's foundry is more technical than mobile phone assembly.

He Hongbo has the same idea.

All walks of life are getting more and more refined, and there is no need to do everything.

Some things can be done by other companies.

Moreover, they do it more efficiently.

It's just that Chen Yu doesn't think so: "I think it's necessary."

Facing He Hongbo, Chen Yu asked: "Hongbo, let me ask you a question first, why do you want to make a chip?"

"My major is semiconductors, of course I want to make our own chips. Of course, the more important reason is that we don't have our own chips in China."

"No, it's not the reason, it's because foreign chip giants will choke our necks."

It's actually very easy to understand.

If everyone in the world is fair, everyone can naturally do their own things.

Even if we don’t have it on our own side, but other countries do, we can also cooperate with them.

But the world is not like this.

The chip is not something you want to cooperate with, others will cooperate with you.

This is the reason why we have to do the chip ourselves.

"Similarly, why Center International was established, that is, we need to have our own wafer foundry. If not, even if we come up with a very powerful chip architecture, other wafer foundries will not give us foundry? "

At present, the most advanced wafer foundry company in the world is called TSMC.

This is an Epistar foundry in Taiwan.

Of course, if it's just Taiwan Bend Enterprise, it's nothing, Chen Yu can't have such a crisis.

But the key is that 80% of TSMC’s shareholders are foreign capital.

Once an accident occurs, it is a question whether TSMC can help you with OEM.

In the past life, the United States actually had such a ban and upgrade plan.

It's just because it's too much involved, and they haven't implemented it so quickly for a while.

But everyone knows that whether it is chip architecture or chip processing, the neck is caught by foreign countries.

If you don't want to be choked by them.

The first part is to have its own chip architecture.

The second part is to have its own Epistar foundry.

The third part is to create a chip ecosystem.

Of course, in fact, the technology of Center International is very general.

This company founded in 2000 ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ has several generations of technology from TSMC.

Even in the previous life, 2020, the technology of Center International and TSMC is still two generations away.

However, for Chen Yu now, Center International is just right.

Chen Yu didn't want to make high-end chips, he only wanted to make low-end chips.

"Understood."

Although Chen Yu didn't say much, He Hongbo understood it instantly.

Seeing He Hongbo's awakening, Chen Yu continued: "Our chip foundation was established not long ago. Although it is developing well now, the entire architecture has not yet been completed. While we are completing the chip architecture, we are also using arm. The company’s technology makes our low-end chips."

Of course, making low-end chips is not the goal, the goal is that the entire chip process must be walked through.

Whether it is structure or processing...Huanyu Technology has to participate fully.
