Tim Cook pondered for a long time, more than ten seconds, before finally saying: "Okay, Wang, I really hope to go back to the day when we first met and had a frank and friendly conversation. I believe that this trip to China will

We will definitely work out a result acceptable to both parties."

"No problem, Mr. Cook. In fact, I have always been grateful to Apple for not making things difficult for Mr. Ge. And you don't have to be too entangled. In the future, you will know that I have always regarded Apple as a good partner. After all, Apple has carried out assistance in China."

So far, I am very satisfied with the "Learning Thousand Miles Journey" activity! Well, when you come to China, I will ask Mr. Ge to treat you to dinner. Let's talk back, I have another call coming in."

"Okay then, I'll let you know when the secretary arranges the time."

"Okay, Mr. Cook!"

Wang Yufei casually hung up the phone.

There was indeed another call coming in, and during the call, there was a boost tone on the phone.

So many things in this world are often like this. The more something is missing, the less hope it will have.

When there is no shortage, the more people will queue up to deliver.

The same goes for money.

For example, just now one of them had not yet decided whether to use Wang Yufei's prescribed gesture to send money, and another one called again.

That's right, this time it's Samsung.

After Lu Taiwen was reserved for three days, he could no longer remain reserved.

The idea of ​​Changxiang Technology also shocked the newly appointed head of Samsung's mobile phone department.

When the two statements revealed the trump cards of Changxiang Technology and Huawei, the situation that Samsung is now facing is that in at least two or three years, Changxiang Technology may not need Samsung's 7nm process technology, but for Samsung, brain-computer chips are not

It is a necessary technology to maintain market position.

So even though it was already late at night, Lu Taiwen called Wang Yufei as soon as possible.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, hello."

"Hello, President Lu."

After a simple greeting, Lu Taiwen got to the point directly.

"Mr. Wang, we have carefully discussed the cooperation agreement you proposed that day in your company's conference room. We feel that there is indeed room for cooperation, such as the formation of a partnership of mutual trust between the two parties."

Wang Yufei smiled unconsciously. Sure enough, everyone in the business world was so honest and friendly.

"Yes, President Lu, on behalf of Changxiang Technology, I very much hope to form the closest partner with Samsung. Of course, Samsung needs to express its stance first. I saw ASML's announcement a few days ago, and Samsung has also

Mai took five lithography machines, three of which are extreme ultraviolet lithography machines, and the other party has already shipped them. If Changxiang Technology can receive this lithography machine this month, I can let Mr. Ge make the final decision.

Within this year, all 7nm process brain-computer chips can be produced by the Samsung Group, excluding Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Intel as partners."

Lu Taiwen smiled bitterly, okay, this is indeed an excellent business, but is the OEM chip the key point?

Does he care about the money he makes from foundry chips?

"Then I would venture to ask, does Changxiang Technology intend to enter the chip manufacturing industry because it needs extreme ultraviolet lithography machines?"

Wang Yufei answered honestly: "No, it's just that I set up an interest club in school. I made a promise to the club members before to build an entire chip laboratory, starting from refining silicon to finally chip molding and all the equipment."

I need all of them. But Mr. Ge can basically buy other equipment directly for me, and the orders have been placed. Now I just need a photolithography machine."

There is a saying, and this is indeed true.

As for the lithography machines that were originally planned to be packaged and sold directly to Chinese friends, Wang Yufei has left the problem to Apple.

If Apple works hard, fifteen of the world's most advanced photolithography machines will be enough to use the 3nm process.

After 3nm, Wang Yufei feels that the era of major chip changes has come. At that time, if the lithography machine is not replaced, then the chip will have to be replaced.

For the current domestic semiconductor industry, ten of the most advanced extreme ultraviolet lithography machines are actually enough.

"In this case, I think we should meet and talk again."

"If President Lu also feels the need to meet and chat, I think it's better to do this. Mr. Cook from Apple just talked to me on the phone. He will also come to China in the near future and hopes to meet me, so why don't we chat directly. I

I believe that by then you will know how favorable the conditions I have offered Samsung are. If you still feel unsatisfied and hope to get more discounts, then I am really sorry. There is nothing worth cooperating between Changxiang Technology and Samsung.

The basis of that.”

Wang Yufei continued to speak in a very sincere tone.

"Oh? So it will be more troublesome for Apple to obtain the authorization for the brain-computer chip?"

Lu Taiwen asked casually without any hope, but what he didn't expect was that Wang Yufei answered him naturally.

"Yes, there are fifteen ASML latest lithography machines, and five of them are given away for free. Of course, the gift of lithography machines is nothing compared to the charity work Apple has been doing in China.

.The only pity is that Apple is not good at chip manufacturing, otherwise I would actually prefer Changxiang Technology to form the closest partnership with a responsible company like Apple."

Lu Taiwen was a little dizzy. He wanted to tell Wang Yufei loudly that Silicon Valley companies such as Apple and Intel were not good things. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company's default was basically a trick caused by the joint pressure of these companies.

But as a reputable person in charge of Samsung, of course he couldn't be so direct on the phone.

The mood is tangled.

Because what Wang Yufei said is probably true.

And Lu Taiwen believes that Tim Cook’s mentality is even more tangled at this time.

iPhones are a top priority for Apple's revenue.

Eighty percent of the apps in the Apple Store are developed for Apple phones.

Once Apple's mobile phone sales decline, it will be fatal to Apple's overall revenue.

Although Samsung mobile phones are always coveting Apple's market, Lu Taiwen must admit that Samsung's reliance on the mobile phone business is far less than that of Apple.

At least Samsung doesn't have to maintain an extremely closed ecosystem.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Taiwen immediately expressed his position: "Okay, okay, Mr. Wang, you win! I can generally accept the prerequisites for cooperation you proposed before on behalf of Samsung. Of course, the detailed contract still requires face-to-face communication."

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation in advance. However, the general framework has been finalized and I will not participate in the detailed contract negotiations. These matters are the responsibility of Mr. Ge. I believe that we will all be satisfied in the end. In addition, I will inform Mr. Ge of his refusal.

All cooperation requests from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. This part of the business has been outsourced to Samsung."

"What about Weihua?"

"Although Weihua is a partner of Changxiang Technology, it is also an independent company entity, and it also has the authorization to commission the production of brain-computer chips. As for whether they choose to continue to cooperate with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., it is beyond Changxiang Technology's control.
