Technological Hegemony

Chapter 343 Do You Know? The Chinese have already occupied the field of semiconductor IC design

When India was completely turned upside down because of Ye Wuchen, Luo Jia was convening a meeting of the brainstorming team at the Xingchen Technology Headquarters.

With the official start of the passive component war in late July, the world cannot be peaceful at all. The reason is simple. Passive components belong to the semiconductor industry, and the tough guys are finally going to attack the semiconductor industry.

For a time, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Intel, AMD, Applied Materials, ASML, Colin Technologies, Infineon, Nvidia, Samsung, LG, Hitachi, Panasonic, Toshiba, Western Digital, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, they all Facing the enemy...

The news that Xingchen Technology entered the field of passive components made all the companies and bigwigs in the semiconductor and computer related industries all over the world collectively blow up their hair.

It has long been guessed that Xingchen Technology must be engaged in semiconductors, but they did not expect them to move so fast. The vigorous car war just entered the first half, and the situation took a turn for the worse. Entering the basic consumables in the semiconductor field, everyone was caught off guard.

They all guessed before that Star Technology has achieved brilliant results and amazing results in a series of fields such as new energy, mobile phones, search engines, automobiles, and so on.

This is like a tank, rushing forward like a destructive force. After sprinting such a long distance, it should take a break, drink a cup of tea, add some gasoline or something.

As a result, not only did Xingchen Technology not have any rest, but its speed became faster and faster, leaving behind a messy car and motorcycle war, and rushed to the semiconductor, the king of mountains.

Their approach is still the same as usual, not greedy for merit, not aggressive, down-to-earth, starting from the most basic, CPU, memory, supercomputer, such high-end products have not been touched, and the passive components are very painful first. Grab the basic materials that are forced.

"Actually, we still have a high-end project." An Ran said with a smile, "That is the lithography machine. The Optical Department is the earliest department established in the company. From the very beginning, Zhang Yuechuan and Mr. Lu have been leading the team to engage in lithography projects. Recently, we have also absorbed the unparalleled talents of the Wen family brothers. Although the Wen family brothers are mainly in charge of the life science department, Wen Chengling still spent a lot of time working on the most important supporting technology for lithography machines, ultra-violet light."

Mr. Lu Chengfeng said, "The lithography machine we are working on can no longer be called a high-end project, but a super project. Under the current situation, a complete semiconductor system has been established in the West. If we want to enter the game, we must Follow the rules of the game set by the West."

"Take the example of the passive components Mr. An just mentioned. The standards for passive components are set by the West. Looking at the large number of model lists, I feel like my head is about to explode.

If our Star Technology made the rules, we would definitely not have such a troublesome system, but there is no way, the rules are not set by us, we can't change the rules, we can only abide by them. "

"And the lithography machine is the key to whether we can subvert the rules. If we have this thing, together with Fang Yuanchu's semiconductor design department, Li Moran's software department, and major hardware divisions, we will have It may be possible to erect another mountain next to the hegemony of Western semiconductors and compete with them in parallel, instead of chasing after the ass of the West as it is now!"

Mr. Lu is nearly 80 years old. He once worked in Phoenix Camera and Seagull Camera Factory. He has witnessed how domestic optical and film were eaten up by European and American powers.

The painful lessons of the past have made Mr. Lu a firm believer in independent innovation. For him, the lithography machine will take 10,000 years to come up with.

The heads of various departments continued to report on their work, mainly focusing on the layout and pre-research of the semiconductor field. Both are key projects of the company. Semiconductors and life sciences are very different. Semiconductors are relatively open, while life sciences remain mysterious. The Wen brothers are directly responsible to Luo Jia. It is An Ran and Li Moran's orders, and they also have the right to disobey, and their autonomy and independence are very high.

The electrical department reported that their current main job is to cooperate with the national team and partners. More than half of the engineers in the department and branches have been dispatched abroad. The construction of basic new energy across the country is in full swing. There is nothing but a little bit of hardship.

The electric vehicle business unit is almost in the same situation. The technical route is determined, and the research and development is completed. Now it is mainly to cooperate with partners to promote technology and products.

Li Moran said that the software center is doing a lot of pre-architecture research, and just waiting for the hardware department to come up with results, they will start to embed the underlying software and create a set of Xingchen Technology's own system.

After going around the meeting, I returned to the semiconductor business department. As the saying goes, one hair can affect the whole body. Unlike the independent life science department, the semiconductor business department is like the leader of the company. Materials science, optics, electricity, chemistry , These departments are like a pack of wolves following the wolf, all serving the semiconductor business.

As a result, the pressure on the semiconductor business department will be too great. In terms of semiconductor design, Fang Yuanchu, a veteran of the company, will be in charge, the underlying semiconductor embedding and related software will be in charge, Li Moran will be in charge, semiconductor hardware, and An Ran will be in charge. After giving birth, Luo Jia will personally take over An Ran.

In short, the life science department was an accident. It was not in Luo Jia's plan, so it carried out its work very independently. However, the semiconductor department was the wolves of Star Technology. All the elites rolled up their sleeves and failed. Then become benevolent.

The high-level meeting of Star Technology also inherited the company's free and undisciplined atmosphere. Everyone should sit and stand, eat skewers when hungry, drink fruit juice when thirsty, express their opinions, and start to imagine the future of the company.

Seeing that the meeting was almost over, Luo Jia stood up and said: "Reporters have been around the company's headquarters for several days, but so far, we still haven't officially announced the news of entering the semiconductor field. Why?"

"Because this step is difficult and important, it will arouse strong hostility in the global technology community and trigger a new war."

"It is also because we have always been evasive and refused to officially announce the news, so there are a lot of rumors in the foreign media, saying that we Chinese are not good at semiconductors, because semiconductors require rigorous logic, and Chinese people are often only smart and lack great wisdom. .”

After Luo Jia finished these few sentences, snorting voices came from the conference room. All the top experts in the industry said that Chinese people are only smart and lack great wisdom. The group of monsters at the scene refused to agree at first.

Luo Jia paused, and continued: "I should have dismissed this, but suddenly I thought about it, and I think it seems a good idea to stand up and refute it."

After all, Luo Jia pressed the keyboard and turned on the projection to show everyone a table.

Clearing his throat, Luo Jia said: "In this world, semiconductors not only need to be manufactured, but also need to be designed. Only when the IC is designed first can the factory start, so everyone should understand that IC design is the most important thing in the semiconductor field. One of the branches."

"Now let's see, as of this year, what are the most powerful IC design companies in the world, and who are their leaders."

"The number one IC design company in the world is Broadcom. Broadcom is headquartered in Singapore and controlled by Chen Fuyang, a Malaysian Chinese."

"The second place is Qualcomm North America, and the actual controller is Mollenkov."

"The third place is Nvidia, and the actual controller is Chinese-American, Huang Renxun."

"Ranking fourth is MediaTek, headquartered in Hsinchu, Wanwan Province, and the actual controller is Cai Mingjie."

"The fifth place is Huawei HiSilicon, which everyone is familiar with. Mr. Ren's subsidiary, He Tingbo currently controls it. Among the top ten semiconductor design companies in the world, only HiSilicon is a mainland company. It's not easy, it's really not. It's easy," Roja said.

As soon as Huawei was mentioned, the meeting couldn't go on. Everyone nodded and even clapped their hands, expressing their admiration for Huawei.

Huawei is really awesome. It is second to none in the real hard-core company in the technology industry. If there is no Huawei in China, and they are all companies like Xiaomi or Lenovo, what the hell will it look like? It would be strange not to be bullied to death by the great powers.

In China's science and technology circles, Huawei is the giant of the sky. Because of this company, China's science and technology circles have some face.

Luo Jia stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said with a smile, "Huawei has nothing to say, it's really hardcore, it's awesome, we entered the semiconductor industry later than Huawei, so we have to work harder, HiSilicon is already in the field of semiconductor design, We have planted our own banner, and our goal is in the upstream hardware field, we must first concentrate on taking down passive components."

Everyone applauded enthusiastically, full of enthusiasm. Semiconductors need to be accumulated.

"The sixth-ranked IC design company in the world is Advanced Micro Devices in North America. The actual controller is Su Zifeng, a Chinese-American."

It may be intentional. When Luo Jia spoke, he deliberately emphasized the word "Chinese".

"Ranked seventh is Maiwei in North America. The actual controller is Dai Weili, an Indonesian Chinese."

"Ranked eighth is North American Sessling, the actual controller is Peng Shengli, a Chinese-American!"

He is still Chinese! ?

Many people are stupid. Although these IC design companies are located all over the world, their actual controllers are almost without exception, all Chinese!

"Ranked ninth, Wanwan Provincial Lianyong, actual controller He Taishun, Chinese!"

"Ranked tenth, Wanwan Sheng Ruitek, actual controller Ye Jiawen, Chinese!"

"Ranked 11th Ziguang Zhanrui, this is a state-owned enterprise, the current actual controller is Zhao Weiguo, of course he is also Chinese."

Shua~

Luo Jia finally finished reading the list, and everyone was surprised to find that among the most powerful IC design companies in the world, only Qualcomm is controlled by foreigners, and the rest are all controlled by Chinese?

This is too tidy, right?

Luo Jia smiled and said, "The reason why I read Ziguang Zhanrui, which is ranked eleventh, is because two years ago, Broadcom, which ranked first, wanted to acquire Qualcomm, which ranked second, but was charged by the North American authorities with suspicion. On the grounds of national security, it was rejected by one vote."

"It's a pity, otherwise, what everyone sees now will be a list of all Chinese at the helm."
