Chapter 357 354.Mysterious Person

  On April 1, 2007, Cao Yang received a mysterious call.

   is from Minister Li.

Cao Yang feels a little strange because he spends less time communicating with the boss, and he has everything to do, and he is fine and will not trouble Li Department. At this moment, he calls himself. Is it related to the Bomi smartphone? ?

  However, Li Bu called, Cao Yang had no reason to refuse.

  "Hello, Li Bu, it's been a long time since I saw you. I see you have been busy, so I can't bear to disturb you." Cao Yang answered the phone and directly apologized to himself.

   Minister Li was taken aback over there.

   "Little Cao, tomorrow there is a mysterious big man who is going to your company to investigate."

  "Mysterious big man? Who?" Cao Yang felt very puzzled.

  For him, Minister Li is already old enough, and Minister Li is considered the biggest person he has ever met.

  Who else can be called a mysterious person in Minister Li's eyes?

  Mom! ! !

   Cao Yang's heart jumped sharply.

  Could not be...

  Fuck...

  "What should I do, do I need to prepare here?" Cao Yang felt a little nervous.

  "What do you need to prepare? Just prepare yourself. Then you can answer whatever he asks you, and take him to visit where he wants to visit.

   By the way, this boss is very low-key. This time the company inspection does not want to be too public, just you and a few core members know about it. Don't you know about the external voice Zhang? "

  Fuck!

  Don’t speak out.

  Things are a bit big!

   Cao Yang held the phone in a nervous manner, "I know Li Bu, if you have anything to do with me, please take care of me."

   "It's okay, take it easy." Minister Li laughed over the phone, "You can just be normal, what you usually do.

  Okay, not much to say, I have something to do, hang up first. "

   "Okay, well, Li Bu, you are busy."

  After hanging up the phone, Cao Yang stayed in bed for a long time. By the way, it was Sunday and April Fools' Day.

  So Cao Yang enjoys family happiness at home.

But……

  He didn't dare to treat this call as a joke on April Fool's Day.

  "What's the matter?" Miss Mine next to her turned over and gently hugged his waist with her hands.

  Cao Yang was stunned for a moment, "A person is going to be sent down from the top, oh no, this time it is down from the top."

   "What's above and below?" Pei Siqing was confused.

  She touched Cao Yang with her hand, "Why didn't you respond?"

   "The big thing!" Cao Yang suddenly sighed as if he was waking up from a dream, and directly surprised Pei Siqing.

"what?"

   "It's down from above!" Cao Yang said.

   Pei Siqing lowered his head and glanced, the clothes on his chest did collapse a bit, revealing a white piece.

  She glared at Cao Yang, "Huh, bad guy."

  ……

   Taking advantage of Cao Sining’s visit to grandmother’s house today, the two of them had some exercise in the bed.

  2 hours later...

Cao Yang sat on the bed with a dull face and thought about it for a long time. He was sure that he had not done anything to be sorry for the country and the people. He was innocent. He seemed to have done a lot of good things for the country by the way, and what Minister Li said on the phone was Investigate, but not investigate...

  This situation is probably not like a big thing like some day to beat me.

  ……

  In the evening, Cao Yang called Zhuang Yu, Ronghua, Liu Zhiping, and other members of the President’s Office, telling them that they must come to the company early tomorrow, and some important people are coming.

  Zhuang Yurou was stunned for a moment when she heard it, "Big man, what big man?"

   "It's very big," Cao Yang said, "It's the beginning of the Chinese character."

   "Huh?" The little secretary was a little frightened. Where did she ever see such a big battle, "Then I have to put on makeup tomorrow?"

"Uh……"

  ……

  Early the next morning, Cao Yang met the legendary mysterious man.

  Usually he can only see this person on TV. The first time he saw this person in real life, it was the first time——

  The mysterious big man, wearing a pair of brown-rimmed glasses, looks gentle, amiable, and his hair is neatly combed.

  "Welcome the boss to visit Bomi Company," Cao Yang hurriedly led the staff to greet him, "Hello boss, I am the person in charge of Bomi Company, and my name is Cao Yang."

  The boss graciously held Cao Yang's hand with a smile.

  Then everyone was greeted and walked into the Bomi building.

  Because Cao Yang had greeted him beforehand, no one dared to take photos or something.

  What should everyone do or do, only Cao Yang took the little secretary and Liu Zhiping to the reception.

  Today, in addition to the mysterious big figures, Minister Li of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and Chairman Yang of China Mobile accompanied him.

   "Young man, you are very good." The boss said with a smile, "I know that Bomi has done a big and earth-shattering thing——

  Smart phones have reversed our country’s backwardness in the field of mobile phones, and many patents have been generated.

   is quite remarkable. "

   "No no." Cao Yang thought for a while and said, "I just did what a Chinese should do."

  He seems to understand the purpose of the boss here.

  No wonder Minister Li of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Dong Yang of China Mobile are here.

  ……

  The mysterious big figure, led by Cao Yang, visited some of the projects that Bomi was developing, such as games, engines, cloud computing...

  The boss visited a circle and asked Cao Yang to find a place where he could talk.

  Everyone came to the conference room on the 39th floor.

  Zhuang Yurou followed them all the way. To be honest, even her secretary felt out of breath. This kind of occasion was different from what she had experienced before.

  I usually see it on TV, but when it comes to real reality, it’s a bit unacceptable.

  A living boss stood in front of him, his words and deeds were under his watch.

  Zhuang Yurou felt that she was about to have a heart attack.

  She looked up, Boss Cao seemed calm and composed, and didn't know how he carried it over.

  Will someone accidentally say something wrong and be directly sent to hell?

  Zhuang Yurou's heart is really apprehensive.

  Everyone talked for a while. It was mainly about what the boss asked, and Cao Yang answered what, most of the time it was the boss’s speech on the current Chinese and Chinese entrepreneurs and the relevant economic situation.

  No one dared to interrupt the whole process.

   "You can tell me about the chip." The mysterious big man shook Cao Yang's hand and said.

   "Chip?" Cao Yang was taken aback.

  But these are all well prepared.

  Since Minister Li called him yesterday, Cao Yang was already asking people to sort out the information related to Bomi, mainly for the boss to ask questions.

  Cao Yang projected the PPT made by Liu Qiang and the video about the chip developed by Bomi on the big screen, explaining it to the boss and the accompanying staff.

  There are some technical details. Although the boss is not an expert in this area, he listens with gusto.

  After Cao Yang finished speaking, the boss clapped his hands.

  Everyone in the room was taken aback for a moment, wondering if they should follow along and applaud.

  Fortunately, the embarrassment passed quickly. The boss looked at the ppt and sighed earnestly with his eyes, “It’s not easy. A small chip can play such a big role.

  Without it, smartphones cannot be developed, right? "

"Yes." Cao Yang nodded, "but we are still only at the stage of chip design. The specific manufacturing process is actually not available in Bomi. Our chips currently rely on SMIC and TSMC. Give them the demand, and then let them help with the production."

   "Uh, uh." The mysterious big man nodded and was silent for a long time.

  He leaned over, whispered to Minister Li and Dong Yang, and exchanged some opinions, but Cao Yang didn't catch it very well.

  "Do you know the 02 special project?" Minister Li asked.

  "Special Item 02?" Cao Yang was a little confused.

  But thinking about it, the brain is blank.

  It's over. Could it be that Bomi has violated the 02 special law?

  02 Is the special project a law?

   or something else?

   Cao Yang cast his eyes on the secretary and Liu Zhiping for help, and the two of them also froze for a moment. The scene was a bit embarrassing for a while.

  Seeing Cao Yang's anxious look, the boss laughed himself.

Minister Li frowned and looked a bit hateful of iron and steel, so he explained to Cao Yang, "In July last year, the National Academy of Sciences completed the "Outline of the National Medium and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan". , Software and electronic devices, to catch up with the rapid development of international technology and industry as an important part of the 11th 5-year plan.

  Among the 16 major projects, technology research and development in the fields of chips, software and electronic devices ranked second.

  So it is also called 02 special project. "

  In this way, Cao Yang understood. In July last year, Cao Yang met Li Bu and made his own demands to him. He did not expect to receive such high-level attention.

  As soon as the Bomi mobile phone was released, even the mysterious big figures came to investigate in person. I really don’t know what to say.

  It turned out that as a reborn person, what he said is so important?

  In fact, Cao Yang really thinks too much.

  Because these plans have long been in the blueprint for the future design at the national level.

  The National Academy of China initiated the formulation of the medium and long-term science and technology development plan in 2003, and completed the release of the National Medium and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan in July 2006.

The "Planning Outline" identified sixteen major issues including core electronic devices, high-end general-purpose chips and basic software, very large-scale integrated circuit manufacturing technology and complete sets of processes, a new generation of broadband wireless mobile communications, large aircraft, manned spaceflight and lunar exploration projects, etc. For special projects, the time limit for completion is about fifteen years.

These 16 major projects include: core electronic devices, high-end general-purpose chips and basic software, very large-scale integrated circuit manufacturing technology and complete sets of technology, new generation broadband wireless mobile communications, high-end CNC machine tools and basic manufacturing technology, large-scale oil and gas fields and coalbed methane development , Large-scale advanced pressurized water reactor and high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear power plant, water pollution control and treatment, new genetically modified organisms cultivation, major new drug creation, prevention and treatment of major infectious diseases such as AIDS and viral hepatitis, large aircraft, high-resolution earth observation system , Manned spaceflight and lunar exploration projects, many of which have received great attention at home and abroad.

  And 02 special project: it is the "very large-scale integrated circuit manufacturing technology and complete process" project, which ranks second in the 16 major projects listed in the national major special projects, and is called the "02 special project" in the industry.

Focus on researching key 45-22 nanometer manufacturing equipment, develop 32-22 nanometer complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process, 90-65 nanometer special process, carry out 22-14 nanometer forward-looking research, and form 65-45 nanometer equipment and materials , Process supporting capabilities and integrated circuit manufacturing industry.

   "Since we talked about the 02 special project, let's talk about the 01 special 01 special project."

  Minister Li took out his Bomi smartphone, slid on it, looked up the information he had prepared, and then read:

  "The major nuclear high-tech project is core electronic devices, high-end general-purpose chips and basic software products. It is one of the sixteen major national science and technology projects as determined by the National Medium and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan Outline.

  The main objectives of the major nuclear high-base project are:

  Catch up with the rapid development of international technology and industry in the fields of chips, software and electronic devices.

  Through continuous innovation, we will conquer a number of key technologies and develop a number of strategic core products, making a major contribution to my country's entry into the ranks of innovative countries. "

  After he finished reading, he turned off the phone and put it back in his pocket.

"Therefore, in the face of Bomi's chip research and development, I am very pleased to have successfully developed a world-class chip with a 90nm application level. At the same time, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will award Bomi the honor of 2007 Best Innovative Company. title."

   "Thanks, thank you." Cao Yang felt flattered.

  ……

   "Bomi is really doing a very good job. It is the representative of the major Internet technology companies." The mysterious big man said with satisfaction, "Is Bomi still developing the next generation of chips?"

"Well, that's right." Cao Yang said quickly, "Our company is now designing and developing 45-nanometer-level mobile phone chips. But we can achieve success and breakthroughs in the field of chip design, in fact, it is not just Bomi. Huawei’s contribution to helping us complete the chip design is indispensable.

  Then SMIC helped complete the chip manufacturing. Without them, Bomi’s Hongmeng chips would not be available. "

  The mysterious big man nodded in relief.

  Certificate and not arrogant, and do not forget the well digger, really a good entrepreneur.

  The key is that Cao Yang is still very young, and he really has a lot to do in the future.

  If Cao Yang is not too young, and he is also afraid of wasting a good entrepreneur, otherwise the boss would a little bit like to promote him to be a high-ranking official mayor or something.

   "As for what you just said, we are already focusing on this issue."

   "In fact, the country has always attached great importance to technological development in the high-tech field and breakthroughs in innovative technologies. These are the driving forces for the country's continued growth in the future, and it is also a place for us to narrow the gap with other developed countries."

  The boss said, “That’s why we announced the 02 and 01 projects last year.

  The country will vigorously support the development of chips, semiconductors and electronic devices. "

  "Thank you boss, thank you country." Cao Yang said excitedly.

  ……

"Actually, this time is not just an inspection, but more importantly, communicating with you young entrepreneurs," the boss said. "You are the future of the motherland. We need excellent entrepreneurs like you to develop the country's chips. Make a contribution." The boss said.

   "So... if our country is going to vigorously support chip manufacturing," Cao Yang hesitated, and then made up his mind to put forward his own opinions, "Then can you help chip manufacturers like SMIC?"

  In fact, the chip is not difficult to design. At least Bomi can design world-class high-end chips, but the difficulty lies in the production process and equipment.

The mainland of our country is now in chip production, the best is SMIC, but they have also entered a bottleneck due to the problem of equipment love, and they can now produce 90nm chips, but in the next generation, they want to break through 60nm. The following estimate is very difficult.

  We also have no way to hand over the 45-nanometer chip foundry to TSMC.

  And in the middle, the most core is the lithography machine. "

  When Cao Yang said this, his eyes were lost.

  It’s really embarrassing to think about it, because in our country’s previous life until 2021, due to the Huawei sanctions, the shortcomings of the entire chip were exposed. The reason is that there is not a sufficiently advanced lithography machine.

  This thing has very high technical requirements.

  EUV lithography machine is sophisticated and complex, but its key core technologies are only three, namely: light source, dual stage system and optical lens.

  First of all, in terms of light source.

  The lithography machine needs to generate stable extreme ultraviolet rays and reduce the light wavelength to the range of 121 nanometers to 10 nanometers.

  The shorter the light wave, the smaller the nanoscale number of chips that can be manufactured, and the higher the performance of the chip.

  Secondly, in the dual-workpiece system.

  ASML has always had a monopoly in the field of dual-table systems, because of the high requirements for the precision and complexity of the machine.

  Finally, in terms of optical lenses.

  How difficult is the lens?

  In 2002, when He Rongming, general manager of Shanghai Microelectronics Equipment Company, went to Germany for an inspection, an engineer told him: "I can't make a full set of drawings for you."

  He Rongming understood this sentence a few years later.

  The lithography machine, known as the flower of the modern optical industry, is so difficult to manufacture, it can be called the product of human wisdom.

  The lithography machine is similar to a camera. Its film is a silicon wafer coated with photosensitive glue. The circuit pattern is projected to the substrate by a photoetching machine, a part of the glue is etched away, and the silicon surface is exposed for chemical treatment. To manufacture a chip, this process must be repeated dozens of times.

  The lens located in the center of the lithography machine is composed of more than 20 lenses with a large pot bottom in series. The high-purity light-transmitting material of the lens + high-quality polishing. The lens used by the SMEE lithography machine is worth tens of thousands of dollars.

  ASML's lenses are based on Zeiss technology. It takes decades to hundreds of years of technology accumulation to achieve uniform lens material.

  In the final analysis, a top lithography machine in the world is actually equivalent to many years of technology accumulation in many Omi countries and companies.

  You want a company to accomplish this, it is really tantamount to a dream.

  Cao Yang can’t afford to invest. He can only help Center International get a certain number of orders for mobile phone chips, and develop slowly by supporting the chip leader.

  The key is that SMIC does not have the production technology of lithography machines. What they can do is to use their own chip manufacturing technology to produce the required chips for Bomi.

  Currently, it mainly produces 90-nanometer-level chips, and there are still two years before it can produce 45-nanometers.

Since the last farewell with Zhang Rujing, the founder of SMIC, Cao Yang has not paid much attention to the situation of SMIC, and does not know whether they have won the lawsuit. However, since the mysterious big man can come to Bomi today, he has not paid much attention to the chip With such a keen interest and concern, Cao Yang could also take this opportunity to help them.

  Helping the domestic chip industry is actually helping Bomi itself.

  Cao Yang still thinks very clearly.

  After listening to Cao Yang's words, the mysterious big man gave him approving gazes, and the big guys exchanged glances.

   seems to be saying--

  This kid has two brushes.

   "Very good, we think the same."

  The mysterious big man nodded with a smile, "Let’s put it this way, it took 15 years for the cold country to develop the semiconductor industry and put in countless funds to achieve today’s results.

  We also want to do it, and we are willing to do it.

  But as you said, the lithography machine is not an overnight thing.

  It cannot be piled up by money and manpower. "

"In the beginning, we also wanted to work hard in this area, so you see that since 2003, we have been attaching importance to semiconductors and want to promote the development of related policies. In the middle, we have also tried to do this completely at the national level and invest money. , Allowing outstanding talents to concentrate on equipment research and development."

  The boss frowned and thought of some past events, “Later we discovered that it couldn’t work. The state’s blind investment, in fact, could not solve the problem of breakthroughs in high-end technology. Instead, it would let some people take advantage of the state’s funds.”

  "So what is our changing mindset now?" The mysterious big man laughed. "What we think is that the country should not just pay, but also ask for it. Let you know that the country supports you for better economic development.

  We also need to make a profit, not for free investment.

  Like companies, we call this venture capital. "

  Speaking of this, several big guys all laughed.

  "We have been discussing related issues during this period, especially after Minister Li responded to us with your suggestions and opinions, the National Court has attracted great attention."

"Our country is going to set up a foundation. The name currently set is called [National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund]. The state will take the lead and invest 100 billion yuan. Well?"

  The mysterious big man smiled and said, "It is used to invest in the lithography machine and semiconductor technology industry you just mentioned."

   "Uh..." Cao Yang was sweating profusely and didn't know what to say.

so……

  I promoted the development of relevant national policies and institutions? !

  Cao Yang suddenly became a little frightened, am I such a ridiculous character?

   "You have to keep this matter secret." The mysterious big man suddenly remembered something and said sharply.

   "Good boss, it must be kept secret!" Cao Yang hurriedly stood at attention, and was so frightened that he suddenly came so suddenly.

"After we raised funds, as we said before, we support technology-based companies through venture capital and the state's shareholding." The mysterious big man said, "We have also fully communicated and understood the difficulty of these companies because of the difficulty of doing lithography machines. Whether it is to make chips, money is very much needed for R&D investment. If the company cannot survive without sufficient support, then there will be no development.

  So we adopt the method of buying shares.

  Successful research and development, the country will also make money.

  If R&D fails, then we will treat it as a failure of venture capital. "

  The mysterious big man invited Cao Yang to sit down beside him, holding his hand tightly, "Do you know what I mean?"

   "I... Um"

  Cao Yang choked and nodded, "I think it is a great thing for the country to attach such importance and propose corresponding solutions to establish this fund."

  The mysterious big man looked at him with a smile, making Cao Yang flustered.

  The key is to still hold your hand in the opponent's hand.

  Cao Yang could feel the temperature from the palm of the boss's hand.

  The boss waited for two seconds and said, "I heard that Bomi Group is going to go public?"

"Uh……"

   Cao Yang felt tight.

  Fuck!

  Bomi’s listing, even the National Yuan knew it! ?

  Does the above attach so much importance to us?

  Or is it because our company has committed any violations, just like Didi in the previous life?

impossible.

  We are listed on Hong Kong, and we are not going to be a traitor. We are listed on our own stock market. We are loyal and courageous, and we can withstand investigation.

Could it be that……

  What twists and turns occurred in the middle that caused the mysterious big man to attach great importance to it?

  Actually, those mentioned before today are all paving the way for the final listing investigation?

  What does this mean?

  Cao Yang cast a glance at Minister Li for help.

   Minister Li glared at him, "What is there to say?"

  "We are going to be listed." Cao Yang said, "We are going to be listed on Xiangjiang and have already submitted relevant review materials. I don't know the result?"

  Could it be where we have a problem, right?

  Betrayed country data? !

impossible!

  What am I special... If this is the case, I would just hang himself directly.

  ……

"The state established this large fund to invest in enterprises so that they can develop technology use with peace of mind." Minister Li of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology took over and said, "Bomi is going to be listed. The established large fund will invest in shares."

   "The state buys shares?!" Cao Yang's jaw dropped in surprise.

  So is this not a private placement?

  Bomi is ready to go public, and the prospectus has been written for review, maybe it will be approved this year.

  If you want to redirect additional issuance at this time, don't you have to get a new one?

  However, if you refuse the country’s shareholding, is it because you don’t know how to praise it?

   "The key is whether you need it or not." Minister Li reminded again.

   "I... um" Cao Yang wanted to answer yes, but also wanted to answer no.

  What do people do?

  "Too much, you are embarrassing me too much."

   "Just tell the truth." Minister Li snapped.

   "I...I want the country to become a shareholder, but the money is given to Bomi, and other things are missing?"

   "And we are not short of money." Cao Yang said.

"Uh……"

  The mysterious big man choked.

  It seems to be sparkled by something.

  A private company actually told the country that we are not short of money. What a shocking remark is this?

  According to the popular saying in previous lives-

  Even the boss has been pretended by Cao Yang in this wave, which is simply a model of Versailles.

  But what Cao Yang said was also the truth.

  The country’s shareholding, backed by the country, is of course the best and a stable group.

  However, Bomi is indeed not short of money. According to their IPO plan, once the company goes public, Bomi will be able to obtain a raised amount of US$80 billion.

  This money is more than the capital reserves of the large funds established by the entire country.

  If a big fund wants to buy a stake in Bomi, how much do you have to spend?

  ……

  The mysterious big man was taken aback for a moment, and was amused by Cao Yang, "It seems that Xiao Cao, you are very confident, Bomi is developing very well."

  "But we really hope to get the support of the state, hoping to get a share of the state's big fund," Cao Yang quickly added, "it's not a question of money, mainly because we think that after the state's shareholding, we will definitely be able to develop very well.

  We have always been proud of being a patriotic company. After the country became a shareholder, Bomi helped the country make money. It is better to use the money to support the country’s construction than to make money for foreign capital.

  So I still hope that the country will invest in Bomi. "

Eh?

   Minister Li and China Mobile Yang Dong’s eyes lit up——

  The awakening of this young man is back.

  ……

  In addition to these reasons that Cao Yang himself said--

  In fact, if the state can get shares, then the speed of Bomi's listing this time is estimated to be much faster.

  Think about it, Bomi’s ingredients include national ingredients. Who dares to stop them?

   shows that the above agrees with Bomi very much.

  After exchanging some opinions, it was too early to see that the time was too early, so several big men stood up.

The mysterious big man shook Cao Yang’s hand and said, “Thank you, if there are any difficulties encountered in the enterprise in the future that cannot be solved at the enterprise level, please tell us that as long as it is beneficial to the country and the people, the country can definitely help. Will help."

   "Hmm...this..." Cao Yang frowned, and stopped talking.

Liu Zhiping next to    looked silly.

  The boss is really courageous. The old man is always ready to leave. It's just a polite remark before leaving. Are you really climbing right?

   "So what?" The mysterious big man held Cao Yang's hand and looked up at him affectionately.

   "Speak directly." Minister Li urged.

  Cao Yang paused, and then he said, “The smartphones produced by Bomi have not been able to enter the Omi market. After several audits, they were called back by the relevant authorities.

  I feel that this is not something that Bomi Enterprise can accomplish independently. "

"Okay." There was a stunned look in the eyes of the mysterious big man, "I wrote down this matter, and settled it on the diplomatic level. See if it can be recorded in the export list of the rice trade later, it happens that they too Talk to us."

  Cao Yang turned to think about it——

  A big bomb called the subprime mortgage crisis is buried in the U.S., maybe there is a real possibility of compromise.

  The United States will collapse next year.

  Cao Yang is actually quite worried about this.

  Smartphones might be unsalable due to the collapse of the stock market and people without money.

  In fact, up to now, Cao Yang is not so anxious to enter the U.S. market.

  ……

   "What you said today gave us a lot of inspiration."

  When parting, the mysterious big man said:

  "It is really a good thing to be able to communicate with young and outstanding entrepreneurs like you, and we can also understand a lot of problems encountered by the company and the difficulties that need to be solved."

  Unfortunately, this is a secret investigation. Otherwise, if this sentence of the mysterious big man is published in the newspaper, how much halo will Boss Cao increase?

  ……
