258 Invest in SMIC?

 May 1st, May Day Golden Week is cancelled.

Lu Fei took this opportunity to control the wild horse that was galloping like logic. Rapid growth resulted in extensive management. He pulled the reins, optimized the organization, and rectified military discipline.

The hardware is still under the supervision of Sun Hongjun, including the "Wall Facer" laboratory, but its product lines are separated. The touch screen belongs to Newark, lsic belongs to Bai Yongxiang, and Huang Zhang is transferred to tackle the research and development of Kindle.

The software part is divided into two parts, terminal and music service.

Newark's multi-touch, etc. focus on terminal products, while Spotify's headquarters in North America enjoys autonomy and will not be subject to military orders, but the financial resources are all allocated by Logic's North American division.

The business and marketing department is fully led by Guo Xing. In addition to China, there are also three theaters in Asia-Pacific, America, and Europe.

During the rectification campaign, a group of cadres and employees who violated disciplines and laws were purged. They were greedy for the benefits of dealers, or simply enriched their own pockets. They were dismissed at the least, or jailed at the worst, without any credit for human kindness.

Thunder, rain, and dew all fly over the land.

The reason why the Qin army is a tiger and wolf army is because of military discipline and military merit. The "Wolf Warrior Culture" means that you don't draw cakes and don't come up empty-handed. When you hang out with Mr. Lu, you not only have soup to drink, but also meat to eat.

It took about 5 days to gather senior executives such as Sun Hongjun and Guo Xing together to discuss the cake distribution mechanism and come up with a Tup that was different from Huawei's special esop——

Virtual deferred dividend plan.

Like Guo Xing and Sun Hongjun, employees are assigned a number of dividend options based on their position, level, and performance. No investment is required. The options will be automatically exercised when the time comes and the company will buy them back.

In addition to wages, bonuses, and TUP dividends, the average employee's salary can reach hundreds of thousands, which is not a dream!

If everyone makes a big cake, it must be divided among everyone.

"Mr. Lu, let's draw up a plan based on this idea?"

Sun Hongjun, Guo Xing and others all turned to Lu Fei, their eyes full of expectation, it was related to their interests.

"Let's just draw it up like this. The settlement period is five years."

Lu Fei touched his chin. If Qilixiang didn't hold 10% of the shares, it would be difficult for him to nod his head.

Cutting off your own flesh to give to workers? What a capitalist scum!

"Mr. Lu is wise!"

Sun Hongjun smiled from ear to ear, "With such an incentive mechanism, coupled with the big stick of anti-corruption, we can slowly eliminate corruption and kickbacks from the root."

"Anti-corruption can only be carried out, not completed."

Lu Fei touched his neck. Even if he hung a street lamp, he could still choose the shortest one, right?

The "Wolf Warrior" plan was being finalized intensively, and a little bit of news was deliberately leaked within the company. In an instant, all employees were not only given the blood of chickens, but directly the blood of wolves.

If Millennium can get 100,000, Logic will be my home!

If I can get 200,000 yuan, I will work for logic in my life!

Such 996,007 is a blessing!

Once the logical incentive plan was leaked, it caused a small earthquake in the IT and IC circles. Except for Huawei, all colleagues almost pretended to be blind and couldn't see it. However, they couldn't stop their subordinates from changing jobs, such as ZTE, Harbor, Huahong, etc.

True talent and practical learning will not reject anyone who comes.

"This young man is getting more and more interesting."

Zhang Rujing became very interested in this stranger and asked: "When will we meet?"

The secretary-general was surprised. This was the third time the chairman had asked this question. He said truthfully: "It's half past two in the afternoon. It's now ten past two."

"That's almost it. Let's go to the factory now."

Zhang Rujing and the secretary to the board of directors arrived at the wafer fab, which can be said to be the largest in the mainland, and saw a car slowly approaching.

Lu Fei got out of the car and saw an old man with black hair and white hair. He wore glasses and his back was bent. He was wearing a dark work uniform instead of a suit and leather shoes.

"Hello, Director Zhang."

He stretched out his hand straight forward, filling in a lot of information before coming, especially Zhang Rujing.

This man is a giant Buddha, second only to Zhang Zhongmou of TSMC in seniority in the Taiwan Semiconductor Industry.

He joined Texas Instruments in 1977 and stayed there for 20 years. He was known as a "maniac in building factories" and led the construction of more than 10 wafer fabs.

After that, he returned to the Bay Area and served as the general manager of Shida. He had always wanted to build a wafer foundry in mainland China, but the plan could not keep up with the changes, and the parent company was acquired by TSMC.

If your plan fails, you will give up everything you have accumulated and return to the mainland to start over. Patriotism has to pay a price.

Relying on more than 400 engineers recruited from Texas Instruments and Dalian, as well as more than 100 people poaching TSMC, SMIC has entered the top ten in the world, ranking 7th.

"Mr. Lu, you are young and promising, and you will eliminate harm for the country." Zhang Rujing shook hands with him.

This "harm" is naturally Hanxin.

Lu Fei waved his hand, "Sheer passion cannot compare to Director Zhang's passion for giving up TSMC stocks and resolutely starting from scratch."

"With half my foot in the ground, I just hope that I can do a little bit for the motherland before I go to the ground."

Zhang Rujing smiled and said: "This is what Mr. Lu often calls the 'Chinese Dream'. This is my Chinese Dream."

"Director Zhang, isn't this my Chinese dream?" Lu Fei looked at him with admiration.

"Oh, Mr. Lu also intends to invest in semiconductors?"

Zhang Rujing's eyes lit up and he was so enthusiastic that he personally took Lu Fei and Sun Hongjun to visit the wafer fab area in Zhangbei.

Lu Fei entered the Grand View Garden like Grandma Liu and watched the densely packed machines operating, with engineers patrolling cautiously.

After walking around for a while, he took off his dustproof suit and asked:

"Director Zhang, what kind of chips are produced here?"

"Mostly dra films."

Zhang Rujing patiently introduced, "We have undertaken the processing of memory devices from Infineon, Toshiba, and Fujitsu..."

Lu Fei was greatly surprised. It was like going to a shopping mall to buy clothes and the clerk was selling them diligently and with a little too much enthusiasm.

Fortunately, he did enough homework and didn't make a fool of himself.

In the field of civilian chips, they are logic chips, memory chips, and display chips. These three categories account for 95% of the market.

Computer CPUs and mobile phone SOCs are among the most complex logic chips, while display chips are closely related to cups and are usually sold in bundles.

Intel and AMD, the major CPU chip manufacturers, are also the largest GPU manufacturers. They are basically controlled by the United States. They only have memory chips, but they are chasing the waves ahead and changing the king's flag at the top of the city.

After several industrial transfers, first from the United States to neon, and then from neon to sticks, China also recognized this, and only urgently launched the 908 and 909 projects in the 1990s.

"Director Zhang, how much does it cost to invest in a wafer fab like this?"

"A total of US$1.63 billion before and after."

Zhang Rujing looked proud. The entire wafer factory was already an international-level 12-inch wafer production line, with a monthly output of 49,000 wafers.

The production level in the mainland is generally still at the level of 4 to 5-inch wafers and 2 to 3 micron process technology, which is fifteen years and three development stages behind the United States, Japan and South Korea.

Lu Fei said quietly: "Director Zhang, if I want to introduce a nada flash memory production line, what is your estimate of the budget?"

Zhang Rujing said in surprise: "As far as I know, Samsung's wafer fab invested US$1.4 billion in three years. I'm afraid the cost of building the factory will not be less than US$500 million."

1.4 billion? What a beautiful knife!

Sun Hongjun almost stumbled. Logically speaking, the current operating income is only just over US$200 million, which is like a small horse pulling a big cart.

Lu Fei raised his eyebrows, how much is this worth?

"What? Mr. Lu intends to invest in nada flash memory?" Zhang Rujing asked curiously.

"I have this plan."

Lu Fei nodded, "One of the advantages of Logic 3 is flash memory. We rely heavily on Samsung and Toshiba. Although there is priority supply in the agreement, it will expire at the end of the year."

Sun Hongjun added: "We, Mr. Lu, are here this time not only to visit our seniors and visit the wafer fab, but also to cooperate with SMIC and set up a joint venture factory."

"Joint venture? Build a factory?"

The secretary-general burst into laughter instantly. She has undergone professional training and can control it no matter how funny it is, but she really couldn't help it.

Zhang Rujing shook his head and laughed: "Mr. Lu is not kidding me, is he?"

Lu Fei looked serious, "Logic requires a production line.

I am more worried about production capacity than the contract. The success of lsic has made Samsung and Apple pay attention to flash memory. Although there are backups such as Intel, Samsung and Toshiba are the best choices at present. This is the production line and the survival line."

"How does Mr. Lu want to cooperate? Provide money?"

Zhang Rujing calmed down his emotions and took it seriously.

The most important memory chips are DRA chips and NAND flash memory. Domestic DRA chips have achieved zero breakthrough, but flash memory is still blank, and there is indeed a huge market.

Lu Fei said with a straight face: "It's not just money, we will match up the production line. SMIC sent a professional team to assist us."

Zhang Rujing smiled: "Mr. Lu, you don't have to go through all the trouble of a joint venture. You can just invest in SMIC, and we will become a family and introduce production lines together."

Lu Fei squinted his eyes, it sounded like he had a lot of money, but——

I reject!
