Reinventing the Millennium

Regarding Fang Zhuo's semiconductor project, Lin'an received the news on July 3, and then there was a flurry of excitement.

The other party wanted to lead the team on the 5th to come over for discussion and research. It only took two days, which was both confusing and urgent.

semiconductor? Fab? production line?

What does this have to do with Fang Zhuo?

Doesn’t the richest man in Shanghai make music players? Why do so many companies suddenly want to engage in semiconductors?

Lin'an's deepest impression of Fang Zhuo was the MP3 player, because Yike's advertisements in the boss's second hometown were overwhelming, and the spokesperson's music could be heard throughout the streets.

As for the earlier registration network, it has been operating in Lin'an for three years. In addition, it has always been low-key. It also refreshed the understanding of the medical supplies of the medical group in the first half of the year. Oh, it is not the registration network now, it is the medical·registration network.

Three years is enough time for a new thing that was originally used to promote informatization construction to be taken for granted by everyone. From the government to society, things like relatives and friends in the province who are sick and want to come to the provincial capital for medical treatment will be directly directed to online registration.

Save time, effort and no money, the development of the Internet is good.

In addition to these two things, Sina, real estate, and the richest man in Shanghai, these things seem so far away that they do not happen 200 kilometers away, but in a city 2,000 kilometers away.

When everyone saw the news or heard the news, they would say a few words of surprise and chat a few words, and then it would be over.

Now, this young rich man suddenly said hello that he wanted to engage in a semiconductor project, which suddenly confused the Lin'an leaders who received the news.

real? Fake?

It can't be fake, right?

Since the probability is really high, leaders' attention quickly focused on the semiconductor project fab.

Few government departments understand this, but many are sensitive to figures such as budget, scale, and GDP.

After careful evaluation, the conclusion that 5 billion was unbeatable was quickly handed over.

Moreover, it is not only the scale of a project, but also the industrial drive that deserves more attention.

Last year, the GDP of Lin'an as a whole was 178.1 billion, and the GDP of the secondary industry was 90.1 billion. The launch of such a large project as the wafer factory can directly increase the proportion of industrial GDP!

Therefore, not only Lin'an City, but also leaders from Zhejiang Province came forward to welcome the meeting on July 5th.

Fang Zhuo's experience of this appeared directly in his speech.

"The first feeling I felt when I came to Lin'an was the warmth of home."

"Director Liu just made me feel at home. I said, I am now home."

There was laughter in the conference room, which slightly diluted some of Lin'an's nervousness about major projects.

The long table is divided into left and right sides. Opposite Fang Zhuo is Wu Nianyi, the head of Lin'an administration. Next to him is Meng Xianghe, the deputy head in charge of commerce and the Department of Commerce of the province. They have very high standards.

Wu Nianyi is neither fat nor thin, and has a good figure. When he smiles, he looks even gentler: "The day before yesterday, Director Liu and I reported the news that Mr. Fang was going to do a project in Lin'an. I asked him at that time who was the person who made Lin'an our 'Cloud Fang Zhuo from Medical City? I was very happy when he said yes. I told him that Mr. Fang is not only an entrepreneur, but also an entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility. We must fully support this project this time. .”

Fang Zhuo smiled and nodded, but his face was slightly confused. What was going on with this "City of Cloud Medicine"?

Meng Xianghe saw the doubts of the young president and explained with a smile: "Mr. Fang may not know the origin of our Lin'an 'Cloud Medical City'. Mayor Wu once went to the hospital to inspect and happened to meet a doctor from Qingyuan to Lin'an. The patient, Mayor Wu saw his happy face at that time and came forward to ask. The patient said that this was the first time he registered for medical treatment through the Internet. He said that it was like registering through the cloud and being able to see a doctor as soon as he came. It was much more convenient than before. ”

"Mayor Wu lamented the changes brought about by the Internet. The speed of the Internet was like riding on a cloud, and the title 'City of Cloud Medicine' gradually spread."

Fang Zhuo knows Qingyuan, which is the southernmost part of Zhejiang. It used to take most of a day to drive there from Lin'an.

He nodded slightly: "The development of Guahao.com cannot be separated from the support of all leaders. As businesses, we can do something for the public, which makes us feel very at ease. I heard that Alibaba launched Taobao this year. The Internet is rapidly changing our society. This is really a big trend.”

From chatting at home to registering online, the relationship between the president and the leader seems less raw.

The two sides did not get down to business right away, but talked about the development of the Internet, and then the start of the semiconductor project officially started.

"Shanghai has a wafer fab in Zhangjiang called SMIC. It was established in 2000 and is now one of the four largest foundries in the world. It is developing very fast. I talked with Mr. Zhang Rujing of SMIC and he was very supportive of my participation. Semiconductor Industry.”

"I personally believe that the semiconductor industry has great development opportunities, so I am brave enough to give it a try."

"Our project budget this time is US$1.2 billion, which is equivalent to a tens of billions project in Huaxia Coin."

Fang Zhuo talked eloquently and mentioned the budget figures. As expected, he saw joy and surprise on the faces of the two leaders opposite.

This number is slightly exaggerated. The goal of establishing the project is 1 billion US dollars, but it is about the same. If it is converted into Huaxia currency, the eight billion and tens of billions of projects sound different.

"The investment we have invested and attracted now is more than 500 million US dollars, and we have also contacted several internationally renowned investment institutions. They will only confirm their intention after seeing the project and local cooperation, but it should not be a problem."

This number is still exaggerated, and the funds are still on the books. In addition to the money donated to outstanding entrepreneurs, DCM, Deutsche Bank, and Goldman Sachs are all Fang Zhuo's intended targets.

However, when it comes to projects, negotiation doesn’t just end there. Things can happen sooner or later, so it doesn’t matter if we talk about it first.

Wu Nianyi and Meng Xianghe couldn't help exchanging glances. The project was bigger than expected. Mr. Fang was really the God of Wealth who fell from the sky.

Almost at the same moment, similar smiles broke out on both their faces.

Because of the smiles of the two leaders and the disclosed project budget, the temperature in the conference room rose a bit, and the warmth of my hometown became... even warmer.

Wu Nianyi expressed: "The domestic semiconductor industry needs to develop, and it also needs to be driven by entrepreneurs like Mr. Fang who really do things. I heard a while ago that there was a fake chip incident in Shanghai, which is really heartbreaking."

Meng Xianghe supported this project: "Mayor Wu represents the city and I represent the province to express our full support for this project."

Fang Zhuo said very happily: "That's great. We just hope to get support from here. Let's work together to make semiconductors better. In fact, we don't want much. Compared with SMIC, the local government can give us one or twenty." With billions of investment and land support, the project will be able to run smoothly."

Wu Nianyi took a sip of tea.

Meng Xianghe also took a sip of tea.

After Fang Zhuo said so much, his mouth was indeed a little dry, so he also took a sip of tea.

On both sides of the long table in the conference room, everyone came to drink tea.
