SMIC has photolithography machines and can also manufacture wafer production lines. Its level is basically close to the world's first-class level. Of course, it will need to continue to improve in the future, but it will be relatively easy.
But this is not the case in other aspects. Every development of that small chip is all-round, from chip design to the increase of components, and the requirements for companies to adapt to the market are too high.
Jiang Botao is self-aware, and he understands that SMIC's management model is absolutely unable to adapt to such drastic changes.
"Liu Lang, you are right, but I still want to remind you that our country already has a computer company. You should also know that it is the "Fantasy" Group. That Yang Zhichuan is a very capable person. I
I think you can definitely help him become bigger and stronger!"
"Ha, Mr. Jiang, I paid attention to this company two years ago. I also know this Yang Zhichuan very well. He contracted the Capital Computer Research Institute in 1987, which is located in Zhongguancun, not far from my Shengtang Company.
With a group of people, he first sold the photocopies and other equipment of the island country. After several years of development, he made a lot of money. Two years ago, he decided to make computers. For this, he also learned from Chen Chunsheng, and Mr. Chen also agreed very much.
I started to pay attention to him back then, hoping that he could develop his own chips and produce our own chips, because they have the conditions.
Although research and development of chips is a very labor-intensive matter, it is a grand strategy. It cannot be done without research and development. It must be researched and developed. However, after two years of development, Fantasy Group seems to have adapted to the current development model, that is, with ib and
Cooperating with Intel, they implement an assembly and sales model. They only produce hardware with low technical content.
The profit margin of this model is not high, and more than 80% of the profits are given to ib and Intel. Fortunately, the cost is low and results can be achieved in a very short period of time. However, this cannot solve the chip problem at all. Of course
, Fantasy Group has also made great contributions to the popularization of computers in the country.
In the past two years, the country has also vigorously supported the development of Fantasy Group. I believe Mr. Jiang, you should also know what I said and their development model. By the way, Fantasy Group has an engineer named Hua Nanguang. This old expert is Hanhua
The inventor of the hard card.
If I guess correctly, Hua Nanguang and Yang Zhichuan are currently arguing over how to develop the Fantasy Group. Mr. Jiang and your superior department are afraid that they will side with Yang Zhichuan, and Yang Zhichuan's development model has nothing to do with independent research and development of chips.
Yes, so it’s not that I don’t support their development, it’s that the superior department doesn’t support it. Since it doesn’t support it, then I’ll find someone else to do it, right?”
Jiang Botao was speechless at this moment. He seemed to remember that a document was handed to him by the local government two months ago. It was a document about a dispute within the Fantasy Group. This Hua Nanguang was the number two figure in the Fantasy Group. He
During the development of the enterprise, there was a serious conflict with the number one figure Yang Zhichuan, even to the point of irreconcilability, and the local competent authorities sided with Yang Zhichuan.
Jiang Botao finally chose Yang Zhichuan on behalf of the Ministry of Industry. The reason was just as Liu Lang said. The cost of manufacturing computer chips was too high. It was initially estimated that 30 million yuan would be invested every year. This amount of money was not worth it at the national level.
There was less, let alone a company, and at that time Jiang Botao was also considering whether SMIC would take over this area, so he temporarily made a decision to support Guan Fantasy Group in continuing on its current development path.
As a result, Liu Lang now brought this matter up and slapped himself in the face: Look, if you don't support it yourself, how can I support it?
However, Jiang Botao finally knew that Liu Lang had been paying attention to the Fantasy Group and knew more about them than he did, which meant that he did this after careful consideration and not on a whim.
Has anything that Liu Lang thought about failed? No!
Jiang Botao kept thinking. It seemed that his thinking was too simple. At first, he just thought that Wang Haijun was tired of the bad habits in the officialdom and wanted to jump out to build his own career. Jiang Botao was very opposed to this. Bad habits
You can change it, but you can't be "willful" and you can't ignore the interests of the country, right? Then Wang Haijun also roped in Liu Lang to "embolden" him, which seemed to have the idea of coercion.
But when Liu Lang told the story about the cause and effect, Jiang Botao realized that his understanding was a bit superficial. On the contrary, Liu Lang had already planned it. He had even started to secretly investigate the Fantasy Group. This kind of layout had not even been thought of by the country.
So this matter is no longer about Wang Haijun, but a major matter for the development of the national chip industry, especially the computer chip industry. There are two solutions now. One is to agree to Wang Haijun's request and let him go out and set up a company to develop the chip industry.
, this plan has a shortcoming, that is, it lags far behind the Fantasy Group, which has been established for several years, but the advantage is that Liu Lang is behind it.
The second plan is to force Wang Haijun to stay at SMIC, and then force Fantasy Group to pursue independent chip research and development. Obviously this plan has too many shortcomings. It is completely coercive and even offended Liu Lang. The gain outweighs the loss.
Then the choice is clear, support Liu Lang, support Wang Haijun's "job-hopping" and establish his own company, and then Liu Lang will fully support him behind the scenes.
Thinking of this, Jiang Botao's expression softened, and then he made a call: Ask Wang Haijun to come over!
After a while, Wang Haijun knocked on the door and came in. His eyes lit up when he saw Liu Lang. Liu Lang appeared, and he was "saved."
"Wang Haijun, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore. Mr. Liu said good things for you. I agree with your decision now, but I put the ugly words first. You must make achievements. Do you hear me?"
Jiang Botao was cautious when talking to Liu Lang, but he had no scruples when talking to Wang Haijun. You know, he had scolded Wang Haijun quite badly in the past two days.
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang, I will definitely make some achievements!"
Wang Haijun only said one thing, his character is "a ruthless person who doesn't talk much", good technology, and strong management ability. There are too few such talents in the country, otherwise Jiang Botao would not be impatient.
"Humph, results? I know you have skills, but do you have money? Is there anyone? How can you get results without doing anything? Or are you going to make us wait for more than ten years? What do you think?"
Jiang Botao refused to give up.
At this time, Liu Lang chatted from the side.
"Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I have decided to invest in Brother Wang now, so you don't have to worry about money!"
Wang Haijun laughed when he heard this. He had no money, but he had already "calculated" Liu Lang's attitude towards his decision, that is, he would definitely support it, not only support it, but also take the initiative to invest money. This was indeed the result.
Jiang Botao also laughed loudly.
"Wang Haijun, you are so lucky to have Liu Lang supporting you. Well, Liu Lang, let me ask how much money you can give?"
