Chapter 857 South and North

 Fang Zhuo did not expect to see Zhang Rujing in the United States, but he understood why he appeared here.

He had heard before that Tai Ji had some changes in style after the change of head, and the entanglement with SMIC was a reflection of this.

When I met Zhang Rujing this time, I learned more about the situation. SMIC had once concluded the lawsuit with the Taiwanese reporter through a settlement agreement. However, the Taiwanese reporter now has no intention of resolving the problem with an agreement. He is just following the U.S. International Trade

The posture of entrusting the ITC with a thorough ruling.

The core content is three patent infringements, and the demand is to ban the sale of the product.

Fang Zhuo is relatively familiar with the procedures of the International Trade Commission (ITC), and a large part of his focus on Yike mobile phone patents is related to this department. It does have the right to ban products from the US market.

The problem is that this ban on sales is related to patent infringement. He knows that SMIC’s 90nm process technology was introduced from the Belgian Microelectronics Center. Logically speaking, there should be no disputes with Taiji on this process.

If it involves the 130nm process technology, this part is relatively backward after all, there is an upper limit to the loss, and the ban on sales will be banned.

"SMIC has a very good foundation in process technology. At first, it only partially introduced Belgian technology." Zhang Rujing answered, "But Taiwanese journalists want to use the Section 337 investigation procedure to force our products to be banned. We are confident of winning the lawsuit.

Confidence."

"However, we have to admit that this entanglement has damaged the confidence of our international customers to a certain extent. Even if the ITC has not yet made a ruling, Taiwanese reporters have achieved some of their goals."

The purpose of bloodletting!

Zhang Rujing frowned and said, "I came here this time because the reporter filed a new lawsuit with the Northern California Court. I need to do some new communication with the law firm."

Fang Zhuo was thoughtful, and after roughly understanding the situation in this regard, he changed to a more relevant topic. Bingxin needs to apply for a purchase and introduction license again next year, and SMIC has already obtained it twice.

"It was more difficult when we ran for the first time. I believe Mr. Fang experienced it as a team leader, and the second time we were approved without any obstacles." Zhang Rujing said relatively relaxedly, "There is no problem in this aspect."

Fang Zhuo asked: "Will there be any targeted changes because our craftsmanship has reached the international first-tier level?"

Just as Zhang Rujing was about to answer, he suddenly choked and sighed: "I want to say there is no problem, but SMIC has not tried this level yet."

Bingxin's 65nm has been mass-produced, and more than one million mobile phones equipped with the chip have been sold, but SMIC's process has still not been implemented.

Thinking about it more carefully, I came here in a hurry just to get entangled with Taiwanese reporters, but Mr. Fang opened up the industrial chain with high spirits. It was really a very sharp contrast between the two.

Zhang Rujing is happy to see the progress of mainland semiconductors, even if it is not SMIC.

However, the sadness between the two is also a human nature that cannot be restrained.

People from Morning Star never change their curl color from the treasure island to the mainland to Silicon Valley.

"Mr. Fang, how many Yike mobile phones have been sold now?" Zhang Rujing followed Mr. Fang for a stroll, remembering the recently popular Yike products, and casually asked about the situation.

"2.32 million units." Fang Zhuo gave the latest number.

Zhang Rujing had just taken two steps and suddenly turned around and asked in surprise: "How much? Isn't it more than one million?"

"It's been a three-day separation, so we should treat each other with admiration. What's more, it's the 12th day of separation." Fang Zhuo smiled slightly and quoted an evaluation he had seen from PCMag, a well-known IT magazine, "After all, our Mars is an alien creature.

It’s the light of Android.”

Zhang Rujing was really impressed.

This three-day separation suited not only his perception of ice cores, but also Yike, who had greatly increased sales in a short period of time.

He praised: "Mr. Fang's Android Light really has the style of Samsung in the Mainland."

"Samsung? It's just Korea's Xiaoyike." Fang Zhuo joked, "Mars is now the most capable touch-screen phone on the market."

There are only two models on the market right now, and LG’s joint model has not even entered the United States.

Zhang Rujing gave a thumbs up, took out the newly purchased Mars, and said with a smile: "When will Qualcomm distribute the order to our SMIC, and let Mars try our technology."

"SMIC is constantly exploring," Fang Zhuo encouraged, "comrades still need to work hard."

Zhang Rujing wrote a letter of instruction: "Listen to the teachings of the number one semiconductor person in the Mainland."

Fang Zhuo poured a cup of tea and saw that Mr. Zhang actually clicked on "Fruit Killer" and shook his head: "I am a layman, but I am just following the trend."

"The mainland's semiconductors are not following the trend." Zhang Rujing gave his former junior brother a high evaluation, "The south is the north, and that's it."

Fang Zhuo laughed: "It should be east and west, and Luzhou and Shencheng are almost the same in the north and south."

Zhang Rujing clicked start, ended the game five seconds later, raised his head and said seriously: "I'm not talking about my Zhang, but the Zhang in the south."

It's the retired Taiwan reporter Zhang Zhongmo.

This person has been involved in the semiconductor industry for more than 50 years. He even pioneered the wafer foundry model. He is a real godfather.

Although Zhang Rujing is a competitor with the other party, he also has a very high opinion of this old acquaintance.

"Old senior, you're in trouble." Fang Zhuo raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Rujing ended the second game and said with a smile: "It's true, Lao Zhang is 76 this year. No matter how prosperous he is, I think the future will be dominated by the north."

Although he praised it, he also really felt that the waves behind the Yangtze River were so fierce. Let’s look at the future.

Fang Zhuo smiled slightly: "If Zhang Zhongmo hears such words, I'm afraid he can fight another distance just by helping him up."

Zhang Rujing shook his head, Nan Zhang had retreated, how could he survive a second life?

It's too late to come back today, I'll make up for it over the weekend.
