After the "911 terrorist attacks" in the United States that shocked the world, countries around the world were angry and condemned this heinous act.
The United States has received widespread sympathy and full support from all countries in the world. Allied countries will contribute money if they have money. Those who have no money will contribute, and those who have no money and power will follow and yell around to support the United States in fighting terrorism on a global scale.
The sudden 911 incident was a subversive shock to the people of the United States.
This is the second time since the "Pearl Harbor" incident that the United States has been attacked on a large scale, causing heavy losses.
It's like a slap in the face, hard on the face of the proud American people.
How can I endure it?
September 16
The "Patriot Act" introduced by the US government authorizes the commander-in-chief to strengthen internal monitoring and externally combat global terrorism.
Before the 9/11 incident, the United States was considered the safest country in the world.
Although terrorist attacks are rampant, most of them target U.S. overseas bases and have not blossomed in this home center of capitalism.
The impact it caused was at least across the Pacific Ocean, and by the time it reached the United States, it was already minimal.
However, you will always have to pay it back if you go out for fun.
This vicious terrorist incident, which caused great public outrage, attracted the attention of the United States to the fight against global terrorism.
As a result, the foreign and national policies of the United States have undergone drastic changes, and a series of policies and bills have been introduced, placing the fight against global terrorism at the top of the policy list.
Everything else gave way to it, and the great-power disputes that were secondary contradictions were all put aside.
Now we have leisure time to do this, what nonsense!
When the United States and its henchmen were irritated and shouted "Aowao" all over the world, all attention, policies, money and resources were tilted towards the field of global counter-terrorism, preparing for a heart-warming battle of revenge.
.
Even if you use a cannon to hit mosquitoes, you must let the whole world know that you can't touch the tiger's butt.
There is no doubt that current American society is irrational.
This is an opportunity to win a historical window for calm development. There is no doubt who is most beneficial.
November 10, 2001
At the Fourth Ministerial Conference held in Doha, China's accession to the WTO was reviewed and approved.
Since then, the world trade market has opened its doors to China. The rise of China's giant dragon has become unstoppable and its take-off is imminent.
Korean Peninsula
Seoul, Samsung Group Headquarters
"Did Samsung Group make a profit of US$1.11 billion in 2001? Haha, this is really a lot!"
Lee Kun-hee smiled extremely bitterly. For Samsung Electronics, the core company of the group, 2001 was a year of suppression, a year of inaction, and a year of wasted losses.
Coupled with the fact that it was severely suppressed in 2000, with no funds to invest in key research and development and no funds to develop advanced production capabilities, Samsung Electronics has become further and further away from the world's advanced level.
Invisibly, it has opened up a generation gap with its main competitors.
In the rapidly developing electronics and semiconductor industry, trying to catch up once you fall behind is only theoretically feasible.
After all, competitors have not stood still and have been investing heavily in research and development. The momentum of progress is getting stronger and stronger, and the leading advantage is getting bigger and bigger.
It’s so difficult!
Looking out the window at the twilight, the metropolis Seoul has been lit up with bright lights like the stars in the sky, all the way to the end of the night.
In Li Jianxi's decades of life, every time he stood on the top floor of the headquarters building and looked at the rows of high-rise buildings and the miracle rising on the banks of the Han River, he always felt infinite pride in his heart.
For the ambitious Li Jianxi, developing Samsung Group into the world's top enterprise group is an unswerving goal.
Li Jianxilai once had the opportunity to do this, but unfortunately, the rapid rise of his old enemy Wang's consortium shattered all dreams.
As long as I am given one more year, it is really possible to defeat the Wang Consortium.
Crystal tears rolled in his eyes, and the gray-haired Li Jianxi had an urge to fall down from this tall Samsung Building and end it all in one fell swoop.
No!
Li Jianxi still had a breath of sanity, but he was so frightened by his terrible thoughts that his back was covered with white sweat. He couldn't help but take two steps back and slumped down on the sofa.
It’s so difficult!
From a world market perspective
The companies under the Wang Group have successively taken control of the two major fields of DRAM semiconductor chips and LCD panels, and continue to deepen their control and global market share.
Strengthen technological advantages and continue to vigorously suppress market competitors.
Japanese companies have gradually withdrawn from the field of DRAM semiconductor chip production, leaving only one asset group, Elpida Semiconductor Company, which continued to record a large loss of US$4.15 billion in 2001.
Elpida concentrated its resources on the high value-added system integrated chip field. Unfortunately, Atlantic Jinko developed too fast and its product lines quickly spread to the system integrated chip field, giving it no chance to breathe.
In September, Elpida sold its U.S. wafer factory to Micron at a low price, shrinking its front lines across the board in exchange for valuable cash flow to survive the cold winter.
If it were not for the strong support from the government, Elpida would not be able to survive this year.
In the field of semiconductor chip production
All Japanese companies are not far away from being killed in the battle. Hynix, a Korean-owned semiconductor company, has surrendered, leaving only Samsung Electronics, a single company, still struggling.
TSMC, the leading Taiwan-funded semiconductor company, can currently only maintain meager profits and cannot afford to invest in large-scale research and development.
In terms of the 0.13 micron advanced process, it is almost a generation behind the industry leader Atlantic Jinko Group, and the most advanced is still the 0.35 micron process.
Other Taiwan-funded enterprises are even worse.
When the 2001 financial reports were released, UMC, Lian Rui, Powerchip and ProMOS all recorded losses of varying amounts, ranging from hundreds of millions of dollars to tens of millions of dollars.
It would be no surprise to the industry if all companies were to announce their closure tomorrow.
The only company that can continue to make profits is Atlantic Jinko, which opened up its production capacity to full capacity in 2001 and achieved 55% of the global market share with a surge of growth.
in
Hynix Semiconductor, its wholly-owned subsidiary, also performed well, accounting for 8.12% of the global share and earning a net profit of US$72 million for the year.
By early 2002, two 12-inch wafer fabs representing the world's top levels will be put into production. Atlantic Jinko will continue to consolidate and expand its advantages in the field of memory chip production.
Throughout 2001, Atlantic Jinko made a profit of US$1.92 billion. In comparison, Samsung Electronics made a profit of US$760,000. There is a huge difference between the two.
This is not a crime of war!
From the perspective of product production yield, Atlantic Jinko’s production yield remained at 93.5%, and Samsung Electronics’ production yield remained at 94.2%, with Samsung Electronics slightly higher.
But that's all.
Samsung Electronics' personnel costs, corporate operating costs, tax costs, and logistics costs are all higher than those of its rivals, and they are not even a little higher.
In terms of final customers, Atlantic Jinko has stable major customers such as Nokia, Atlantic Business Machines, Intel Corporation, Glitter Group, Fujitsu Co., Ltd., Yangtze Technology Group, Dell Computer, etc. The sales price is slightly higher than Samsung Electronics by 10%.
Samsung Electronics has been hurt by the huge fluctuations in market prices, and its market share has been shrinking.
The key is that Atlantic Jinko Group was the first to launch the 0.13 micron process technology and apply it in the most advanced computer CPU chip field. The microprocessors it produces consume less power, have stronger performance, naturally have higher prices and are more profitable.
In this top production field, Atlantic Jinko can earn huge profits and subsidize low-process chip production lines.
According to the latest news:
Thanks to the acquisition of advanced photolithography machines from the Netherlands, Atlantic Jinko's 0.13 micron process technology has crossed the 50% watershed, with a production yield of 62.2%, and is still rising.
This is a bolt of bad news for the industry.
"Hey, it's too difficult..."
Li Jianxi let out a long sigh. Samsung is also working on the 0.13 micron advanced process technology and has made breakthrough progress.
The problem is
It takes at least half a year from transforming the production line to putting it into tape-out trial production. Coupled with equipment debugging, continuous improvement and climbing of production yield, a year is indispensable.
How do you know your opponent is stalling?
Li Jianxi suspected:
The opponent is already developing advanced nano-level processes. If that happens, Samsung Electronics will almost always be chasing its opponent, and will be pushed further and further away.
Market experience shows
In the 0.13 micron process field where no one can compete, Atlantic Jinko chip products are making huge profits.
When other manufacturers gradually enter the market and reach more advanced manufacturing processes, the profits in this area will become extremely slim.
in today's world
The winner takes all in the network high-tech field, and the same trend exists in the fields of memory chips and LCD panels.
Blessings come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone.
For Samsung Electronics, home appliance products that have always contributed stable profits are facing comprehensive challenges from mainland home appliance companies.
Just like a tiger versus a pack of wolves, not only Panda Electronics and Green Electric, but also Haier, Hisense, Royalstar, Changhong, Skyworth, Konka, etc. are now joining the market competition. It is simply overwhelming.
The wave of price cuts and new product launches have greatly weakened Samsung Electronics' profit margins, with annual profits of less than US$500 million.
to know
At its peak in 1996, Samsung Electronics' home appliance division could contribute US$4.2 billion in profits a year, which was equivalent to an 85% reduction.
After being challenged and suppressed from all directions, after the group's financial report comes out, Li Jianxi will definitely still be criticized by his American boss. This life is absolutely impossible.
"Father, you..."
Li Zaiyong pushed open the door of the chairman's office and was startled when he saw that the room was dark and there were no lights on. Li Jianxi's lonely and old figure was sitting in the darkness.
"No need to turn on the light, I just want to be alone." Li Jianxi's voice filled with vicissitudes of life came.
"Want some peace and quiet?"
Li Zairong's heart clicked:
What kind of fox is this?
For chaebol families in the Korean peninsula, the fight for power within the family is very lively, and it is a super sensitive g-spot.
"Father, who is Jingjing? How about I find two beautiful female movie stars to serve you?"
"roll……"
Li Jianxi shouted angrily, and Xiao Ming was so frightened that he urinated and fell away.
