"Is your place engaged in exporting materials? Sea transport is not as good as air transport, and land transport is also poor! Just use the current twelve-inch technology to benefit surrounding companies. Do you dare to go up to eighteen inches? Do you have that much money?

?

Don’t be afraid of the wind blowing your tongue!” Yanjing Youyan’s senior leader said on the phone.

On the other end of the phone was the boss of Anqing Jinghe. Mr. Kong was not angry when he heard the bandit-like tone on the phone. Instead, he smiled and said: "Lao Li, what you said is wrong. We in Anqing are the same after all."

The delta area is close to the river and the sea, and the transportation is not backward. Moreover, we are all enterprises in Daxia. When running an enterprise, we should think about becoming bigger and stronger. The technology of Jiuzhou Technology is there waiting for us to learn it. If we don't learn it,

Why don’t the people under their hands poke our spines?!

Besides, Jinghe did not stand still after acquiring the technology from Jiuzhou Technology. In March this year, the installed capacity reached 70,000 pieces. And starting from 2018, our LCD driver chips have been sold at home and abroad. This wafer

Manufacturing has to keep up with whatever it says.

Anyway, let me tell you the bottom line. Our company originally planned to build four 12-inch wafer fabs, and the investment in one of the phases exceeded 10 billion yuan. Now that Jiuzhou Technology has 18-inch technology, brother, I naturally want to keep up.

"

"Yes, yes, you kid has always been shy. You have to know that although the 18-inch wafer is a good thing, it requires the entire production system to follow up and improve. Maybe it will take four or five years.

, only chip foundries can accept 18-inch wafers.

If you invest so much money, you still have to wait four to five years before you see any profitable orders. I won’t lose you to death.

Since you are willing to give shares to Jiuzhou Technology, go ahead and do it. Do you think I want to stop you from getting rich? I am also thinking about your future."

"If you don't keep up with the pace of industrial progress, you will have a crappy future. Don't try to figure it out here. You Yanjing Youyan are great, but the global market is so big. If we share our food, it will make you less."

Two pounds of meat?”

The stories behind several major companies are diverse, but what remains unchanged is the desire for technological progress.

Of course, not everyone was willing to give up their shares, and a lot of money had been spent on the production and construction of the 12-inch, and the company also had to consider the issue of capital chain, so they declined.

The next day, July 2, representatives from the five major semiconductor wafer manufacturers in Daxia and representatives from three other wafer manufacturing companies entered the conference room of Jiuzhou Technology.

As soon as you enter, it's like a good time. A group of elites look at the technology and equipment, or press their hearts to try to calm themselves down, or their faces are red and they can't help themselves with excitement.

And this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that Xiaxin Technology is also preparing 18-inch wafer cutting and chip manufacturing technology.

This has wiped away the previous concerns of many manufacturers.

After all, if the photolithography machine, etching machine, and furnace tube cannot support 18 inches simultaneously, then such a large wafer will be useless.

Of course, it is not really useless. The boss of Yanjing Youyan was also deceiving Anqing Jinghe before.

Just like these domestic manufacturers did not have such export demand for 12-inch wafers before, why did they follow up?

Because many 12-inch wafers are not for conquering 8-inch, but for expanding production capacity and reducing costs for 8-inch.

If the top leader of Anqing Jinghe at that time was just a good person with no technical skills, he might not be able to see clearly this layer of fog.

This is actually a simple arithmetic problem with a deep logic problem behind it.

A simple arithmetic question is: For example, if the size of a chip is 2mm*2mm, how many chips can be cut out on a 12-inch wafer slice? What if it is replaced by 18 inches?

The in-depth knowledge behind it is: Twelve-inch is the most advanced technology in the world today. There will still be some parts in the production that cause unsightly distribution in the plane. This can only be compensated for by other processes. But when it comes to ten-inch

Eight-inch wafers will not have this problem. And the overall cleanliness of 18-inch wafers is definitely higher than that of 12-inch wafers. Therefore, if the same product is transferred from 12-inch to 18-inch wafers, the yield will be further improved.

If something goes wrong, it can be corrected to reduce losses.

The senior executives of Yanjing Youyan shook Dong Qi's hand with almost grateful expressions, and said with emotion: "Jiuzhou Technology helps us improve our technology by investing in technology and not only provides equipment, but also helps Daxia Semiconductor

The company's overall manufacturing process is undergoing a transformation, and our manufacturing industry has transformed from large quantity to strong quality. What we need are companies like you who dare to take responsibility and are willing to invest in research and development.

I am ashamed to say that our company has such good resources, but our research and development progress in the field of wafer manufacturing cannot match yours. Oh, it is really shameful."

How could you accept this casually?

Dong Qi shook his head and said: "Everyone is working hard for Daxia Semiconductor. We are just lucky. Mr. Gu and his colleagues in the R&D department almost never take a vacation. They work from early to late every day just to make a little progress.

A mediocre person like me can only help him manage his finances and handle some chores."

No one here believed what he said.

Jiuzhou Technology has almost blown up a balloon. In just a few years, it has expanded from a small company with dozens of people to a large company with tens of thousands of people. At the same time, there has never been a problem with the company's internal management, let alone a major financial mess.

All the people present knew that this was a self-effacing statement by the other party.

However, they all recognized that the R&D strength of Gu Qing and Jiuzhou Technology R&D department was really incomparable to their own company.

The wafer is made of purified silicon. After photoengraving, grinding, polishing, slicing and other procedures, the polycrystalline silicon is melted and pulled out of single crystal silicon rods, which are then cut into wafers.

This sounds simple to say, but it is simply hellishly difficult to do. A decimal point of progress is the accumulation of countless efforts.

If Jiuzhou Technology had not continuously developed technologies and trained talents for equipment, more than half of the world's semiconductor silicon material production capacity would have been concentrated in countries such as Neon and Korea three years ago. In a sense, these forces are almost monopolies.

With the market for high-quality wafers, it’s no wonder that Han Xing Semiconductor wanted to make a big fortune through the wafer card.

Unfortunately but fortunately, Gu Qing brought Jiuzhou Technology to help them. With new technologies and equipment, foreign wafer manufacturing companies were almost everywhere.

And this time, the industrial innovation brought by the 18-inch will probably completely cripple Hanxing Semiconductor, which has just invested a lot of money in research and development.
