Su Yuanshan certainly considered that this situation of being a supplier and a competitor will definitely not work in the future. Moreover, he also made a lot of preparations for this - several major departments of Yuanxin can be split out in the future.

But he obviously didn't expect the impact to come so early, and he was worried about Sony at the beginning.

Su Yuanshan pursed his lips and frowned deeply.

Ken Kutaraki didn't say anything, but just looked at him quietly, and then raised a cup of tea for him and pushed it next to him.

After tens of seconds of silence, Su Yuanshan nodded slowly: "Juduojun, thank you for reminding me."

Ken Kutaraki smiled slightly: "Su Sang, Yuanxin is proud, there is no doubt about this. But what kind of identity it will sail to the distance in the future... This is something you have to consider."

"Yes." Su Yuanshan nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and sighed: "I thought a long time ago that Yuanxin will gradually become a R&D enterprise that provides top-level technologies and solutions, relying on technology to guide and serve the world."

"What an amazing wish." Ken Kutaraki was fascinated by his longing: "That must be a technology center that brings the most advanced technology and wisdom."

"But the technology center cannot be built in a moment, just like a multi-stage launch vehicle. Although the satellites on the rocket are eventually launched, the other ones that are stripped and fall off are all booster thrusters. But without those thrusters, satellites cannot go to the sky."

Ken Kutaraki added with a smile: "And, the separation of the thrusters also takes time."

"Yes... For example, I want to separate the mobile phone business, but the mobile phone business is currently our cash cow. It is impossible to divide it - it must at least support Yuanxin's profits in the next ten years." Su Yuanshan picked up the teacup again, but found that it was empty.

Seeing this, Ken Kutaraki picked up the teapot and added another cup to him: "It means, in the future, you only want to keep the chip business?"

"Well, to be precise, it is a multi-function integrated system chip design business facing the complex environment of the future." Su Yuanshan used a longer attribution to comment on the future development of Yuanxin.

"Juduojun, you said, when the future technology develops to the extreme, what will be the state of electronic digital products? For example, network signals can achieve Gb transmission rate in the air, such as supercomputers can perform calculations of Beijing or even Shanggai per second..." (Note: 1 Beijing = 10^16, 1 Gai = 10^20)

Ken Kutaraki narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled after a moment, "If such a supercomputer can run ordinary programs, as far as the current programs are concerned, it is probably only necessary to have a display system."

"Yes! Just like what I thought. In the future, it will definitely develop in the direction of high concentration of data and computing power." Su Yuanshan smiled: "For example, in the future, you only need a lens, a display interface, and a chip that integrates menus and communication modules. Click! Press the shutter, and the data can be uploaded to the server in an instant, and the operation interface analyzes and operates the original picture in the server. In this process, even the camera itself does not need to have a memory card."

"A personal device terminal, you only need to provide input and output functions."

Ken Kutaraki was stunned after hearing this. He immediately thought of the LCD panel business that Su Yuanshan had been paying attention to, and the lens that was urging him to - isn't that the future output functional component?

"Su Sang, are you really working hard in this direction?" Ken Kutaraki asked hesitantly.

He has been in the industry for more than 20 years and has seen countless whimsical ideas, but he has never seen anyone as determined to move towards his "dream" like Su Yuanshan.

"Yes, I have been working in this direction." Su Yuanshan nodded without any concealment: "Plus with artificial intelligence, these two directions will definitely push the Third Industrial Revolution to its climax."

At this time, the trend of summarizing the Third Revolution has begun to emerge in the academic community. Many scholars believe that since the invention and application of atomic energy and computers, the current boom in the Internet and IT industries means that the Third Industrial Revolution is underway.

But the outbreak was an outbreak. No scholar can give an accurate prediction and definition of what the next industrial revolution will be.

Some scholars believe that the next industrial revolution should be artificial intelligence, genetic revolution and the interconnection of everything, realizing the world in cyberpunk.

Some scholars also believe that the next industrial revolution should be the beginning of mankind's departure from the earth.

But no matter what, it is now in a booming wave of scientific and technological revolution, which is a consensus among the academic community.

"It's too far." Ken Kutaraki breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head with a smile: "Maybe I can't see that day."

"Who said it? I heard footsteps very close."

"Su Sang, you understand what I mean." Ken Kutaraki laughed.

"Well, I promise you." Su Yuanshan nodded without hesitation.

Ken Kutaraki means that you don’t say too far, solve the problem in front of you first.

Even if he is an ally, he doesn't want to put his neck under the knife raised by the other party - what if his hand slips? Who can say it correctly?

When the problem arises, it is natural to solve the problem. Faced with the negative impact of Yuanxin's current huge business, Sony has proposed a solution itself. There is no doubt that Su Yuanshan is grateful.

...

Next, the two briefly discussed the cooperation model. Then, it was not until this time that Su Yuanshan discovered that Ken Kutaraki had already planned for a long time.

He hopes to jointly establish a wafer factory with Yuanxin and Deyuan to achieve independent manufacturing and sales by accepting Yuanxin's technology and Deyuan's process technology authorization.

In other words, this wafer fab is not the most "popular" professional foundry, but is similar to the independent manufacturing link in (vertical integrated manufacturing) IDM.

In this way, on the one hand, it has technical support from Yuanxin and Deyuan, and on the other hand, it has relatively independent and can be free from interference from giants such as Yuanxin or Sony, which provides a relatively suitable solution to the current embarrassment of Yuanxin.

At the same time, Ken Kutaraki said that Sony's CMOS production line can also be moved in.

In that way, everyone doesn't have to worry about each other's neck problems.

After hearing this sentence, Su Yuanshan immediately realized that Ken Kutaraki was not just about the neck problem.

This is...it seems to rely on this opportunity to fully enter the semiconductor industry.
