Luo Jianhua took Qimonda executives from Germany to China and came to see Lu Fei non-stop, passing by the open space of the park.
A festive stage was set up in the center, with countless chairs placed under the stage, and the covered chairs were fluttering in the breeze.
When I walked to the chairman's office, Zhu Yiming, who had taken office as a new official, was accompanying Lu Fei, Gao Qiquan and the others, talking and laughing.
"land!"
Luo Jianhua pushed the door open and said hello.
"Here we come."
Lu Fei looked at them, "How are you doing? Are you getting used to it?"
Qimonda's senior management, including Luo Jianhua, basically had no complaints. After all, they kept their jobs and the company.
In return, Luo Jianhua brought good news.
With Mr. Lu as a big help, Qimonda, which is not short of money, restarted its stacked technology route and developed in an orderly manner.
There are also breakthroughs in the DDR memory standard.
Breaking through from the mainstream DDR3 to DDR4, the DDR4 designed by Qimonda will be a 30n process technology. If it runs at a voltage of 2V, the conventional bus clock frequency rate will be 2133MT/s, and the "fever" level will reach 3200MT/s.
It is estimated that the earliest is the end of 2010 and the latest is the beginning of 2012.
But that's not the biggest surprise.
The biggest surprise is that the complete set of GDDR5 video memory production equipment has been mass-produced and is being shipped to Chang'an from Munich. The first GDDR5 production line will soon be built.
Today's mainstream memory chips are still GDDR4.
Apart from Samsung, there is only Yangtze Memory!
"How happy is this?"
Lu Fei looked left and right.
"At least five happy!"
Zhu Yiming stretched out five fingers.
"Hahaha~"
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, and laugh loudly.
The air is full of joy.
Everyone present is an industry insider, and it is very clear that the profit model of the DRAM industry is like an antique store. After three years of operation, basically for every year of profit, it will lose money for two years.
In short, it’s a profit of one and a loss of two.
Except for this extremely rare memory winter and the subprime mortgage crisis, the graphics card market has not completely cooled down.
NVIDIA and AMD are in fierce competition.
Last year, AMD released the world's first graphics card equipped with GDDR5 video memory particles. NVIDIA's product planning this year will also include GDDR5 video memory, so the orders are coming!
There are 3D flash memory, computers in cities, logic, Shenzhou, Xiaomi and other electronic products, and Microsoft's Windows 7 will be released soon. Obviously, the future money will be huge!
"It's almost time, let's go down."
Lu Fei slapped his thigh, stood up and went to the door to greet him.
At this time, the outside of the park was full of TV reporters filming the scene.
Photography, cameras, and a swarm of reporters occupied the entire lobby area, and all the cameras were aimed at the red carpet.
Before anyone arrived, the atmosphere had already been heated up by various media.
When Lu Fei appeared, he immediately pounced on him like a hungry wolf.
However, he voluntarily gave up the exposure to Luo Jianhua, Zhu Yiming, Gao Qiquan and others, and stepped aside, willing to be green leaves.
After a while, the BYD F3R arranged by the organizer drove to the door of the R&D center one after another. Logic, Huawei, Shenzhou, ZTE, Elpida, Ruijing, Powerchip, Promos, Huahong, SMIC and other companies
, came in one after another.
Click, click, click, shot with long guns and short cannons.
As soon as Lee Jae-yong got out of the car, he was also surrounded by reporters.
"How do you evaluate Yangtze Memory's acquisition of Qimonda? Are you worried that Samsung will be surpassed one day?"
The media deliberately finds trouble and raises questions.
"No, not at all, at least not yet."
Lee Jae-yong showed a confident smile, "Although Yangtze Memory has acquired Qimonda, there is still a Hynix between Yangtze Memory and Samsung. There is still a long way to go to surpass them."
"What do you think the differences are?"
"Production capacity, scale, and technology are the key. Yangtze Memory's acquisition of Qimonda only makes up for the gap in DDR3, GDDR4 and other memory products. In my opinion, flash memory is the strength of Yangtze Memory, especially 3D flash memory, but Samsung
Not long ago, we achieved a breakthrough and achieved small-scale mass production..."
Facing reporters’ questions, Lee Jae-yong answered them one by one.
At the end, he made a shocking statement and announced that Samsung plans to invest in a memory chip packaging and testing project worth US$500 million.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
Lee Jae-yong was very satisfied with their reaction and said proudly:
"This will be the second time Samsung has established a semiconductor production factory overseas after the Austin project in the United States. It is temporarily considering northern Shaanxi. If the investment goes well, Samsung will make additional investment!"
As the translator translated his words, the crowd erupted in exclamations and applause. Zhu Yiming saw this and curled his lips: "It's clear that you are deliberately stealing the show, Mr. Lu, the person who came here is not malicious."
"Today we are the protagonists, he is just a supporting role."
Lu Fei walked up with a smile and shook hands with Lee Jae-yong.
I saw him changing to English and said directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I didn't mean to announce Samsung's investment plan at this time. I just couldn't help it. You won't mind, right?"
"of course not."
Lu Fei preferred to speak Chinese and asked his secretary to translate.
"Samsung is willing to build a factory in China and bring us tax revenue, employment and technology. Not only do I not mind, but I also warmly welcome it. I very much hope that more companies like Samsung will settle in this Chang'an High-tech Park."
Hearing what he said, Li Zaiyong smiled even brighter, moved his face closer, and said in a voice that only two people could hear:
"I will settle Liang Mengsong's debt with you slowly!"
"What, you regret it? We agreed that Jiang Shangyi should be yours and Liang Mengsong should be mine. As for the conditions, is it possible that the 40/45n process technology has not been shared with Samsung?"
Lu Fei's tone was cold.
"Hmph! We underestimated Liang Mengsong's value and overestimated Jiang Shangyi's. We demand that the advanced process technology sharing agreement be extended to 28n. Of course, Samsung will not lose a penny!"
Li Zaiyong's resentful eyes were filled with hatred.
Lu Fei smiled and did not answer, and changed the subject and said: "In addition to northern Shaanxi, I also hope that Samsung can invest more in other provinces and cities, such as northern Hubei. I wonder if President Li is interested?"
"I have long heard that Northern Hubei is the 'storage capital' of China. Samsung will definitely consider sending people to Northern Hubei for research if there is an opportunity."
Lee Jae-yong smiled, with murderous intent hidden in his eyes.
But in front of the camera, both of them showed professional-level fake smiles. There is no doubt that they drink from the golden cup together and never exchange mercy.
After receiving the company, it’s the leadership’s turn.
At the three provincial and municipal levels in northern Shaanxi, as well as the Ministry of Information, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Association for Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and other closely related departments, heads and heads stood on the left and right, with Leader Sha in the middle walking at the forefront.
Go like a tiger and make a wind!
"I just heard that."
Leader Sha looked kindly and said, "Samsung seems to be planning to invest here because you invested in Chang'an. It's very good. It has given a good start to the transformation of the information technology industry in northern Shaanxi. Let's keep it up."
"It's only US$500 million, so the scale is a bit small."
There was a hint of disgust in Lu Fei's words.
Leader Sha smiled and said: "Then you should set an example and invest more. It is said that you have registered another 'Changxin Storage' and settled in Chang'an. Are you trying to do something new?"
"I will give you a surprise later."
In front of the leaders, Lu Fei remained silent.
"You, you."
Leader Sha shook his head and laughed, patting him on the shoulder.
The leaders followed behind them one by one and passed by Lu Fei, with either admiration or envy in their eyes.
After a while, everyone was seated.
The host Sabei Ning immediately came on stage, following the procedure of the ribbon-cutting ceremony. As soon as the ceremony was announced, there were fireworks and gun salutes.
Everyone in the audience applauded.
Sabei Ning then introduced the heavyweight guests like Leader Sha, and then invited the guests to come on stage for the ribbon cutting. Before starting, they would each speak, either congratulations or congratulations, for a maximum of 5 minutes.
"China's dream of rejuvenation requires rejuvenation——"
"I think the key to revival is the revival of technology."
"Technology is the primary productive force, technology is the kindling that ignites the fire, and Yangtze River Storage is the torch for China's rejuvenation..."
Leader Sha's speech was very layered, talking about the spirit of CCB's ideals and goals and other strategies. The provinces and cities did not follow the procedures and just started talking about it.
The speech was very straightforward and brief.
Most of the time is reserved for today’s protagonist——
Master Lu!
"Next, I would like to invite Mr. Lu to speak."
After the host finished speaking, he naturally passed the words to Lu Fei.
"Pa bang bang~"
In the audience, countless people applauded enthusiastically, with thunderous applause.
"Ahem."
Lu Fei yelled into the microphone, which probably meant:
The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying!
The warriors of An De are guarding the four sides!
DRAM chips are everything we need to develop, and we can’t do anything without them!
"Especially with the rapid development of the mobile Internet and the Internet of Things, the rapid rise of smartphones, wearable devices, and Internet of Things devices, the demand for DRAM will be increasing."
"China must have its own DRAM industry!"
"Since the 1990s, we have been trying every possible means to build, and we have experienced three major failures."
As Lu Fei spoke, he stretched out three fingers.
"The first time, way back in the early 1990s."
"NEC and Shougang jointly established Shougang NEC. At that time, it used a 6-inch 2-micron process to produce 4MDRAM, and even later upgraded to 16M. However, it encountered a sharp drop in global memory prices in 1997, and Shougang NEC never recovered and ended in failure."
"Alas~"
Many people present, especially those who had witnessed Shougang NEC's decline from glory to glory, couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"The second time, that is, in 1997!"
"Although Shougang NEC failed, we immediately made a second attempt, again with NEC and Huahong NEC, a joint venture with Huahong Group, and incorporated it into the 909 project."
Lu Fei spoke eloquently and his emotions were in place.
Others may just lament that the old people like Hua Hong, who have experienced it personally, are crying and feeling quite sentimental.
In 2001, because NEC withdrew from the DRAM market, Huahong lost its technical support and had to withdraw from the DRAM industry. The 909 project failed.
Huarong avoided a disaster by transitioning to foundry manufacturing, but the financial resources and time spent in the DRAM industry were all wasted.
"The third time is a new round of attempts in the DRAM industry started by SMIC and Yangtze Memory."
"SMIC manufactures DRAM for Qimonda and Elpida. As for Yangtze Memory, it starts with flash memory and then makes memory. We have to thank SMIC, because through it, Yangtze Memory can compete with Qimonda and Elpida.
We must reach a preliminary cooperation."
"But unfortunately, just last year, SMIC finally exited the DRAM business due to business adjustments."
Lu Fei sighed and looked at Zhang Rujing.
Senior executives of SMIC, including Zhang Rujing, looked lonely.
The leaders, peers, scholars, and media present were all more or less lamenting the difficulty of China's DRAM industry.
If you think about it carefully, Yangtze River Storage is really the only one in China. Who would have thought that it would be taken over by a layman like Lu Fei.
And it was so impressive that it was replaced by a big tree in the sky!
It not only withstood the subprime mortgage crisis, withstood the winter of the Great Memory Depression, but also withstood Samsung's frenzied price war, and miraculously "hunted the bottom" in Qimonda, which is magical enough.
Now it has surpassed Elpida and Micron to become the third largest company in the world.
It’s more than just magic, it’s simply a dream!
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
Infected by the emotion, everyone clapped.
Even Ni Guangnan, Zhu Yiming and others had tears in their eyes.
"Alas, we are missing Yangtze Memory, otherwise the entire DRAM industry in Baodao would not be so passive now."
The representative of Power Crystal is both envious and jealous.
“What’s missing is not Yangtze River Storage, but Mr. Lu.”
Representative Maode fell into thinking: "In fact, it is not bad to join Mr. Lu. Yangtze River Storage is backed by the mainland, and it will be great in the future."
"Then should you choose Samsung or Yangtze Memory?"
Representatives from Powerchip and Promos whispered.
At this moment, Lu Fei finished his recollection and raised his voice:
"Yangtze Storage's acquisition of Qimonda does not mean the end of the rise of Yangtze Storage, but a new beginning."
"Yangtze Memory's business focus is domestic, but it will not be limited to domestic. Next, we will face a big test in the global market, so I want to announce some good news today."
good news?!
Li Zaiyong suddenly regained his energy and looked solemn.
"First of all, I announce that we and Qimonda have made a historic breakthrough in GDDR5 process manufacturing and will build the country's first GDDR5-based DRAM factory. The memory modules have capacities of 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, 8G, etc., meeting Windows Vista, and
The needs of Windows 7..."
Lu Fei raised his chin, full of confidence.
"Mo!"
Lee Jae-yong subconsciously felt that it was impossible, but when he thought of Qimonda and the white paper on GDDR5 that had been released a long time ago, he was reluctant and had to disbelieve it.
Compared with Yangtze Memory, Samsung lacks another advantage.
Even Lee Jae-yong was so out of his element, not to mention his peers such as Elpida, Powerchip, Rechip, ProMOS, Toshiba, and Nanya. Anyone who knew the storage industry was shocked.
Click, click, click, the flashlight kept flashing.
The cameras placed on both sides of the stage captured this extremely exciting scene clearly.
"Don't be excited yet, there is something even more exciting."
“In addition, we plan to spend US$800 million to expand our 3D flash memory chip factory in northern Hubei and increase the production of 24-layer 3D flash memory. In addition, we are also preparing for the upcoming mass production of 32-layer 3D flash memory in advance.
Be prepared."
Lu Fei looked at Li Zaiyong in the audience and raised the corner of his mouth:
"Yes, our 3DNADN flash memory technology has achieved a landmark breakthrough, with the number of stack layers reaching 32!"
"Roar!!"
In an instant, the whole place exploded into an uproar.
When Lee Jae-yong heard "32nd Floor", his eyes widened and his pupils trembled, "Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!"
In a daze, a terrifying thought suddenly occurred to me.
Could it be that Yangtze Memory's 3D NAND flash memory has already exceeded 32 layers, and it is deliberately waiting for Samsung to officially announce 24 layers?
When I saw Lu Fei's devilish smile, I became even more convinced.
