Morningstar Semiconductor established an Asia headquarters in Xiangjiang in May this year, and at the same time opened a mainland R&D center in Luzhou.
As for the Baodao headquarters, it is still the headquarters, it can be called the general headquarters.
This is what Fang Zhuo mainly wanted to see during his trip to Xiangjiang.
However, just as I was watching happily, I heard that Qiu Ciyun had killed the head of Huahong, so he flew back to Shanghai urgently to save Mr. Fu.
Fang Zhuo had no objection to Hua Hong and was puzzled along the way. What he and Mr. Qiu were talking about was "peace".
After the plane landed, he and Qiu Ciyun exchanged information with the city leaders. After assessing the situation, they felt that attitude was still very important.
The strategic plan of Bingxin Factory No. 4 has been set, which is to resolutely promote the research and development of alternative domestic equipment, and the specific method is to set up A/B/C lines to copy operations.
The process positioning is 65nm.
This is not high for ice cores. The Luzhou factory is already developing 32nm and 28nm, but it is extremely stressful for domestic equipment manufacturers.
Grace Semiconductor's 110nm production line can just make up for it.
The 8-inch 110nm process is very suitable, which further reduces the production process and material process requirements. Because of this backwardness, Grace Semiconductor can try to only make A/C lines.
Regarding such a plan, Ice Core and the Service Alliance have been discussing it, but considering that it is not yet very systematic, there has been no detailed communication with the leaders on how to do it.
Perhaps, this has led to a downward trend in communication between leaders and Huahong.
Fang Zhuo is well aware of the style in certain situations, and knows that it can make people angry.
He can sit back and watch in Hong Kong, but he still feels that the semiconductor industry is very difficult, so let’s stop internal friction.
That’s all about the planning of the ice core, but Fang Zhuo’s words clearly hit the mark.
The most important thing is, who is the biggest beneficiary when Bingxin does this?
Ice core technology and equipment can be purchased all over the world.
Hua Hong suffered deeply.
Some people, including Fu Wubiao, are not only pleased that the mainland's semiconductor manufacturing process has developed very well, but also thought about it countless times when they dreamed back to midnight, what if they didn't have such restrictions?
If Huahong had no restrictions, wouldn't it be at another level long ago?
However, we have no choice but to use equipment and technologies that have been eliminated by others, rely on the upstream and downstream development in the mainland, and move forward bit by bit.
Fu Wubiao was well aware of Hua Hong's suffering, so he couldn't take a breath this time.
Others can see the good of Bing Xin and think about getting the money from Bing Xin. As the leader, his leadership is partial and his thieves are powerful, so he can only use his head to fight for the ground.
Hua Hong can't be cut off, and there won't even be one person who dares to grab the land, right?
But, having said that, after the land grab is over, things still need to be done.
What Mr. Fang said is very clear. It is not only for the benefit of the ice core, but also for everyone.
If you say so, say so...
After the meeting, which did not last long, Fu Wubiao came to Mr. Fang to complain: "Mr. Fang, it's not that I want to cause trouble. Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, think about me in this position, what can I do?"
"Yes, let's compare our feelings." Fang Zhuo said seriously, "I understand Mr. Fu. I know that Mr. Fu personally participated in the construction and mass production process of Huahong NEC."
Huahong NEC is the first 8-inch semiconductor factory in mainland China, which has a very different meaning.
Fu Wubiao sighed.
Fang Zhuo motioned to Mr. Fu to follow him and take a few steps forward to avoid other people's ears.
He continued: "However, Mr. Fu, you have to understand your position when comparing your feelings. I understand Mr. Fu. Mr. Fu, you also have to understand our actions in this situation. Your position cannot only be placed on Huahong.
To put it bluntly, Mr. Fu was responsible for promoting semiconductors at the Shanghai Information Commission, so it is a good thing that Bingxin will come over. To put it more broadly, it will be of some benefit to the industrial chain."
"Of course, in the long run, the development of the domestic environment is also beneficial to ice cores. But in the long run, someone has to promote it, and it is indeed painful when promoting it. Mr. Fu, don't you think so?"
Fu Wubiao felt a little uncomfortable when he listened to Mr. Fang's eloquent talk.
Fang Yu is like this...
"I have received a lot of help from SMIC and Mr. Zhang. At that time, I said that we are all united." Fang Zhuo finally said, "This time I hope that Huahong will join the Wafer Alliance. This is also the reason.
I mean, I also ask Mr. Fu not to refuse."
Fu Wubiao was silent for two seconds, then took the initiative to stretch out his hands: "Mr. Fang's words are serious."
Fang Zhuo shook hands, smiled at Mr. Fu, exchanged a few words with several senior executives of Huahong, and left in the car.
Fu Wubiao couldn't explain his emotions and briefly talked with everyone about this "Huali Phase 1" and the future "Huali Phase 2". Now that things have come to this, Huahong needs to stop its losses.
I just hope, I hope I can use Ice Core’s C line in the future.
…
Fang Zhuo returned to Shanghai temporarily.
As he sat in the car, his thoughts did not wander back to Hua Hong, but he couldn't help but be attracted by the conspicuous billboards on the road.
It seems that Yike's mobile phone billboard in Shanghai is more eye-catching and luxurious than that in Xiangjiang.
Halfway through the bus, another passenger, Qiu Ciyun, got on the bus unhappily.
Fang Zhuo didn't notice Mr. Qiu's mood at first, and kept to himself, summarizing the handling of Hua Hong this time.
When he finished saying this, he found that Mr. Qiu didn't answer much. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Mr. Qiu, my trip back to Shanghai is just a trip to coax people. After coaxing over there, I still have to coax over here?"
"He Fu Wubiao has a temper, so I, Qiu Ciyun, can't have a temper?" Qiu Ciyun said angrily, "Do you know what happened to him? He wanted to hit me with an ashtray!"
Fang Zhuo slapped the car seat angrily: "Mr. Qiu, you told me earlier! If you told me earlier, I would have to look for an ashtray as soon as I walked into their conference room!"
He then said to the driver in front of him: "Turn around! Turn around and go back to Huahong! No one can wrong us, Mr. Qiu! I want to ask him how Fu Wubiao does things!"
The car slows down and changes direction.
"Okay, okay." Qiu Ciyun said angrily, "There's no need to go back, I feel President Fang's sincerity."
Fang Zhuo was sincere to the end and told Liu Zonghong, the co-driver: "Xiao Liu, if you find time to go to Huahong later, go visit Fu Wubiao and bring me the ashtray in his office."
Liu Zonghong responded.
"What? Put some cigarette ashes for me?" Qiu Ciyun said.
"No, I smashed his ashtray, otherwise it would be hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart." Fang Zhuo said angrily.
"If you keep talking, it will be over." Qiu Ciyun reminded.
"Xiao Liu, remember to take it." Fang Zhuo ended the topic and quickly moved to the next topic, "The industry is a chess game, and Ice Core cannot survive alone."
Qiu Ciyun frowned and nodded.
Because we cannot be alone, Bingxin must follow its own interests and drive the development of domestic upstream and downstream industries.
Of course, this is if there is room to spare.
The ice core has no spare power, but Fang always has it.
Mr. Fang has no spare energy, so he can use other forces that have spare energy.
Anyway, he is good at dancing and has great magical powers.
Qiu Ciyun thought this, turned to look at Mr. Fang who was thinking, and asked: "Should the acquisition of Hongli and Huahong continue to raise funds or?"
"Integrate part of the shares and exchange shares for part." Fang Zhuo said, "We control Huahong and Grace, so we can purchase subsequent equipment. When the ice core is listed, they will not lose money."
Only by becoming subsidiaries of Bingxin can Grace Semiconductor and Huali Phase One bypass procurement restrictions. Both production lines need to refer to advanced baselines.
Qiu Ciyun said "hmm" and rubbed his face: "How many years do you think it will take to produce results?"
Fang Zhuo smiled and said, "I should ask you this."
Qiu Ciyun thought hard for a while and then said: "How to define this 'result'?"
"Mr. Zhang asked me a similar question, and I said it would be fine if it was better than SMIC." Fang Zhuo replied.
On the one hand, Qiu Ciyun felt that Mr. Fang was really damaged, but on the other hand, he felt that this positioning was quite realistic.
He considered comprehensively, not only pondering the current process research and development of ice cores, but also considering the constraints that may reappear in the future, and said: "It would be good if a 32nm domestic line can be established in five or six years."
"You're quite brave to think about it." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "Although I haven't finished shopping this time, what I have seen is... very challenging."
Qiu Ciyun relaxed: "Then before I retire."
"No, that would be too loose." Fang Zhuo smiled slightly, "Now we have to give full play to the leading role of Bingxin. We must fully realize the status of Bingxin in the domestic field, give full play to Bingxin's subjective initiative, and dare to take responsibility.
, be brave and responsible, and do good deeds, you must..."
Qiu Ciyun suddenly interrupted: "You are going to see the leader at night, right? You take one ice core at a time. Ice cores have subjective initiative. What about other people? What about other manufacturers?"
If Bingxin had not given the opportunity, all manufacturers would have actively cooperated and unleashed all their fighting power.
"Then I can only talk about ice core, and I can only talk about service alliance." Fang Zhuo said, "What do you want me to do?"
Qiu Ciyun sighed: "Then I have to relax my standards before retirement."
Fang Zhuo said nothing.
"Why don't you speak?" Qiu Ciyun said suddenly.
Fang Zhuo couldn't laugh or cry: "No, Mr. Qiu, I'm so depressed that I can't even speak. Are your requirements for me too strict?"
Qiu Ciyun looked at Mr. Fang's expression carefully and said, "No, it doesn't look like you."
Fang Zhuo didn't know what kind of person he was in Mr. Qiu's eyes.
But he does still have an immature idea about the current situation.
"Ahem, this is really not easy to do." Fang Zhuo considered, "How can we promote everyone's development? Our ice core manufacturing process has caught up to the same level as SMIC in the past."
SMIC once caught up to the point of a generation and a half.
The ice core is now about the same distance from Taiwan Records.
With the explosion of consumer electronics, ice core is expected to further accelerate its development.
What is supposed to come will eventually come.
However, take Zhang Rujing as an example. His judgment on the future is relatively optimistic. This is a disagreement.
Even Zhang Rujing is so optimistic, and quite a few people are more optimistic than him. This sentiment is both within the industry and outside the industry - SMIC and Bingxin can continue to develop at such a rapid pace relying on economic globalization.
Judgment of one thing, 20 years, 10 years, 5 years, will bring completely different results.
The ice core and service alliance is currently driven by internal.
outside...
"Restrictions on ice cores will definitely come," Fang Zhuo said with certainty, "but before they come, we may be able to see a better state."
Qiu Ciyun was a little confused: "What state?"
Fang Zhuo said: "Tathagata."
"Do you think I understand?" Qiu Ciyun asked.
Fang Zhuo smiled and said, "I seem to understand."
He waved his hand to politely refuse Mr. Qiu's questioning: "I'll have to think about it again and see how the situation changes."
We need to think about it, we need changes, and we need friends who want economic integration.
…
Fang Zhuojian, the leader who returned to Shanghai, talked about the acquisition of "Huali Phase I" and Grace Semiconductor, but did not publicize the strategic plan.
Expanding scale and increasing production capacity is what ice core should be.
Taking Huahong's production line, although it seems a bit anxious, Huahong has no objection, what else is there to delve into?
The most important thing is that Bingxin continues to increase its investment in Shanghai, which is what we are happy to see.
However, after meeting here in Shanghai, Fang Zhuo flew to Beijing again and talked more clearly about the A/B/C lines of some ice cores. Coincidentally, the A line is the America line, the a line.
Different leaders also have to say different things.
On the way back from the capital, Fang Zhuo was thinking about what word to use for Line B.
He thought about it and thought that line B could be the best line.
For some time in the future, the best line of feasible de-beautification can still be pursued by mixing relatively advanced processes.
The plane returning from Beijing went straight to Luzhou.
Zhang Rujing and others have returned to Bingxin from Xiangjiang and are waiting.
Compared with other places, Ice Core Base Camp has a feeling that everyone can take a breath.
Especially Zhang Rujing, who spent two days in Luzhou touring the technical craftsmanship of Factory No. 1 on Yuhu Road, and felt reluctant to return to Qindao.
What's the point of big silicon wafers? Wafer manufacturing is fun!
"Hey, your Luzhou factory is so good." When Zhang Rujing saw Mr. Fang who had returned, he could only describe it in two words: "It's so good. It's so good."
"This is the birthplace of ice cores and where our most advanced manufacturing processes are located." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "No matter how good this place is, I will become depressed after just walking around here."
According to the itinerary, Suzhou and Wuxi were not visited, but the overall situation was almost seen with my own eyes.
"Is everything going well with Huahong? Is Mr. Fang able to catch me?" Zhang Rujing sighed, "Mr. Fang, you have a big heart. You won't be upset even if I am upset."
Fang Zhuo said "Yeah": "The worst case scenario is that I can go back and become the richest man."
Zhang Rujing glanced at the head of Bingxin and said, "I have two coins for you to win."
But Luzhou is worth it.
Zhang Rujing stood at the gate of the factory at No. 1 Yuhu Road and saw various IC design companies, several cooperative laboratories, supporting companies such as Changdian, Xinyang, Anji, etc...
This is one of the national integrated circuit industry bases.
And, it is one of the most advanced manufacturing processes in the Mainland.
"Mr. Fang, you can take care of this place, you really have no regrets." Zhang Rujing knew the difference between the front and back here and couldn't help but sigh.
"I have no regrets, but I am afraid that the other people who worked here together will have regrets." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "Mr. Qiu, Dr. Liang, Professor Hu, they are like this, and they are also afraid that you will have regrets like this."
Zhang Rujing suddenly saw a familiar person coming from a distance. He nodded: "That's right. People like me can't have regrets. After all, SMIC's orthodoxy is in Bingxin."
"Ah? Mr. Zhang, are you here too?" The person in the distance came closer, and it was only with my short-sightedness that he could see who was standing at the door, and said in surprise.
Zhang Rujing stretched out his right hand helplessly: "Yes, you are here too..."
Fang Zhuo saw the former head of SMIC reminiscing with the former senior executives of SMIC. He turned around and said, "Xiao Liu, let's have a banquet tonight so that Mr. Zhang can see if SMIC Orthodox has lived up to his expectations."
