Technology: breaking the hegemony that monopolizes the world

"Warmly Welcome Kyushu Semiconductor Directors to Visit for Inspection and Guidance"

"Safety first, prevention first, comprehensive management"

"People-Oriented Standardized Management Guarantees Safe and Harmonious Development"

"Building a modern technology enterprise and creating global high-quality products"

...

There were red banners, flowers and welcome crowds on the roadside. When Li You and his group arrived at Hansung Semiconductor Factory in Korea, they almost thought that they hadn't gone abroad yet, but ran to a partner factory in Daxia.

"Hello, I'm Li Zarong. Due to limited time, our arrangements are still a little short, please forgive me."

Li Zairong spoke a slightly blunt, but clear pronunciation of Daxia Mandarin, which made Li You and the others look at him more.

Although Li You has been in the semiconductor research and development environment all year round, he also worked in foreign companies at the beginning, so his communication is not bad.

"Your Mandarin is very good. This time I came in a hurry because our laboratory found that our first-generation silicon-based technology had some flaws. In order to prevent our partners from suffering losses, I was asked to lead the company's management. R\u0026D team to check the situation."

After shaking hands and communicating for a while, Li You also saw how the head of Li lived in the world.

The dignified head of a large multinational chaebol has a sincere attitude towards "little-known" engineers like himself, even with a little humility, and bows at every turn, which is even more neon than neon.

But that's it, the more humble and friendly Li Zairong is, the more wary Li You is.

"I heard that some time ago, Uncle Sam visited your company's Hansung Electronics Semiconductor Factory in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do?

Even this move was referred to by your country's media as an announcement of the launch of the "U.S. High-Tech Alliance". Mr. Yin also used this to emphasize his willingness to build an "economic security alliance" with Uncle Sam. "

Li You was wearing the overalls handed over by the dispatched employees of Kyushu Science and Technology in the factory, and while walking, he talked about it seemingly unintentionally.

Li Zairong glanced at the same surname, and adjusted his glasses in embarrassment.

"The factory over there uses the traditional craftsmanship of our Hanxing Electronics, so Mr. Yin is doing it for more profit, that's all. I can assure you that the technology authorized to us by your company will never be leaked!"

Li You just nodded to Li Zairong's swearing assurance.

Under the guidance of the person in charge of the factory, a head of the Korean chaebol and a vice president of Daxia Enterprise inspected the second production line that is currently being launched and the third production line that is under construction.

"Maybe, but that Uncle Sam entered the dust-free workshop of your company's core factory project just wearing a suit. It's simply anti-science."

Li You's complaint made Li Zairong afraid to talk to him.

The dust-free workshop of a semiconductor factory is an artificial dust-free environment, which contains far less particles than the general environment.

Due to the development of nano-process semiconductor chip technology, the critical dimensions of semiconductors continue to shrink, and the integration of integrated circuits continues to increase. Dust particles are more likely to cause chip failure or deterioration of reliability. For example, when metal dust particles fall onto the metal wires, it may cause the metal wires to form a short circuit. And if the acidic ionic compound dust falls on the metal wire, it may corrode it, so the clean room is an indispensable element for the manufacture of integrated circuits.

In the semiconductor clean room, it is not the mechanical equipment that affects the clean environment the most, but people, because people will come in from the dirty outside world, bringing countless garbage particles and dust to pollute the clean environment, and these are for the nanometer unit Process chips are fatal.

This is also the fundamental reason why Li You complained about Uncle Sam while wearing work clothes, while Li Zarong was unwilling to talk.

Because after this Uncle Sam visited the factory in style, Korea Hansung Semiconductor did conduct a very thorough cleaning of those clean rooms.

Putting on the SR1 glasses, the specific situation of each operation workshop is presented in front of Li You with the help of various sensors.

The light source inside the lithography machine workshop is highly airtight, and there are no minor problems.

On the contrary, in some small links, he saw some "apprentices" arranged by Hanxing Semiconductor, staring at them like thieves, and the apprentices would write down some values ​​set by their own engineers with a serious face.

However, this is a normal phenomenon. The same is true for those who steal from traditional industries and put them in high-end industries.

Numerical values, link processes, machine equipment adjustments, and even the addition of some special materials are like "ancestral secret formulas", which are not revealed to others unless they are passed down personally.

But after entering this factory, Li You felt much more at ease.

With their own company's security team, as well as special components in some equipment on the production line, if there is a safety problem, it can only be said to be fate.

After the inspection, he said: "The technical loopholes and upgrade plan of this factory will be sent to your company in a week. At the same time, we will transfer back a group of engineers, train them, and send them over later."

Li Zairong hit the snake with the stick and said: "Can our company be allowed to send some engineers to your company to study with the team?

Don't worry, they can speak Mandarin, and they can also operate Kyushu industrial software and the equipment they need for their work proficiently.

Moreover, our company will also subsidize their study and living expenses. For training expenses, your company can give a reasonable figure. "

Li You did not refuse this somewhat unreasonable request.

He replied with a flat face: "For personnel training, our company has rules and regulations, semiconductor engineers, a training cycle, one person is 1 million to 10 million summer yuan.

Which project engineers do you want to study in Daxia, you can submit a report to the president of our company, and usually there will be a reply within seven working days. "

After inspecting the factory, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Our company arranged for S1M's popular idol group to hold a small welcome party in Jiangnan, and then there will be some entertainment sessions, so that everyone can relieve their fatigue."

A certain high-level executive of Korea Hanxing looked enthusiastic, speaking proficient Daxia Mandarin, and talking about the arrangement.

In its view, this group of "foolish idiots" who have been engaged in research and development all year round must also be curious about the life of luxury and money, and there are popular idol groups participating. Who might like this?

But the hot face of this high-ranking Korean star has a cold ass on it.

Li You rejected these arrangements, and said seriously: "We still need to report the specific situation of this factory to the company headquarters, and the company also needs to communicate with the person in charge of the factory, and then arrange personnel and equipment to come over. If we delay overnight, It’s a waste of thousands or even tens of thousands of people’s time.”
