The country can now produce the latest chips, but this is not independent research and development, because the wafer production line comes from the island country. China has only transformed this set of equipment. To achieve complete autonomy in chips, China must have its own wafers.
Production line, there is no doubt about this.
Twenty years later, TSMC has completely independently developed its wafer production line. Of course, the so-called 100% accuracy is not accurate. The most important photolithography machine is provided by a company in the Netherlands. This company only manufactures twelve photolithography machines a year.
, each unit sells for more than 100 million U.S. dollars, and TSMC and Samsung Group are his regular customers. If Chinese companies want to buy it, sorry, there is no stock in stock, so they can only wait until two years later, but two years later, this Dutch company's
The lithography machines have been upgraded, and the products sold to China are still two years old.
This is certainly a product of globalization. It is impossible for a small place like Bay Bay to contract all the upstream and downstream products of an industry. But if Bay Bay can’t do it, it doesn’t mean that mainland China can’t do it. In terms of industrial potential, only the United States can do it.
Everyone knows how high the industrial level of the United States is compared to China's. They have all the industrial categories in the world, and they can independently develop any product.
Of course, in the wave of globalization, maximizing profits is the key. Developed countries do not look down on low-end products, such as the textile industry. By the 21st century, the United States has basically given up textile industries.
After being eliminated, all shoes and clothes were left to developing countries, and even car and aircraft parts were left to foreign countries for manufacturing. However, they always firmly grasped the core technology and never thought about it.
Leave these things to other countries.
Now China has to follow the same path in the chip industry. The first step is to take all core technologies into its own hands, such as photolithography machines, which are the core components of the chip. If this technology cannot conquer the chip, then the chip will not be used.
Talked.
Fortunately, the leadership of SMIC are all experts. Huang Kun, Zhou Ming, and Xie Xide are both scientists and doers. They have a clear understanding of SMIC's problems and started working on them after taking over the tasks assigned to them by the state.
Prepare to start manufacturing the country's own wafer production line.
SMIC has developed to its current level in just one year. Liu Lang is a little unbelievable when he thinks about it. In his previous life, the chip industry was really a pain for the country. It was suppressed by foreign countries and was out of breath. Whenever people were unhappy, they would be here.
There is nothing you can do about things happening at the top. If you don’t use other people’s chips, the whole country will be paralyzed. It is very difficult to do independent research and development. First, there is a lack of talent. Maybe high-level talents can be found, but at the grassroots level
There are too few engineers and insufficient congenital conditions; secondly, the market does not allow it. After twenty years of development, foreign chips have already been integrated with the market. All hardware and software are matched with the chips. Under these conditions, even if you
The functions of the manufactured chips have reached foreign levels, but the software and hardware are not compatible with them. The factors of tomorrow also restrict you. The right time and place do not allow it, and the country's chip industry is struggling.
But this life has completely changed due to Liu Lang's participation. In the 1980s, the level of chips in the world was basically the same. Although the United States had computers, the chip functions were not good. Although few people in China knew about computers, the electronics industry had a strong foundation. Both sides
The difference is not big.
Now that the personal computer era has arrived, the chips manufactured by SMIC are perfectly integrated with this era. Even Americans are not as good at timing this kind of timing. From now on, as long as SMIC keeps up with the development of the times,
As long as those high-level executives don't mess around, the advantages of chips will gradually emerge as time goes by. How much is ten thousand yuan a year? It's too far apart. You must know that in 20 years, China's own computer ownership will exceed
100 million units, and nearly 300 million units thirty years later. The market is as vast as the ocean.
Moreover, in the future mobile Internet era, computer chips have already taken a backseat, and mobile phone chips have suddenly become the new favorite, with annual profits of nearly one trillion U.S. dollars. If SMIC can survive into that era, it will be a world-class giant company.
The butterfly effect is particularly important to the development of history. It is precisely because of Liu Lang's intervention that the country's history has undergone tremendous changes. No one except him would have thought how big an impact SMIC would have in China, even now
The same is true. Those high-level officials in the country feel that only
There is one more good company that can earn millions of dollars in foreign exchange every year. Twenty years later they will truly understand how important chips are to the country, even more important than nuclear bombs, and this
The initiator of everything was this little child who was just six years old.
SMIC has embarked on the right path. The only thing that worries Liu Lang is the management method at the national level. Because the company still belongs to a national agency and is considered within the system, the rigidity of the management system will inevitably affect the company's development.
If the company's main business is traditional commodities such as coal and oil, then this rigid management system may have less impact, but China
Core Technology's products are chips. The development of chips requires constant upgrading. Basically, performance must be improved every six months or a year. Once the opportunity is delayed, other companies will catch up or even surpass them. This kind of extreme
The speed of development requires a group of people who can always understand the industry to be at the helm. This ability is not something ordinary people can possess, and sometimes it even requires revolutionizing one's own life.
For example, in the previous life, the mobile phone giant Nokia once occupied 30% of the world's mobile phone market. It was a true overlord that no one could shake. However, as a result, it did not realize that the world had entered the era of smartphones and missed it.
After a lot of opportunities, it was defeated by Apple. In just one or two years, it fell from the altar and eventually went bankrupt. Obviously, SMIC also has such a danger.
Because of this, Liu Lang secretly cultivated his own people. Several young people, led by Wang Haijun, were "bought" by him. Liu Lang was responsible for providing them with funds and allowing them to go abroad to have access to the most advanced technologies.
They are all Liu Lang's "chess pieces". When he returns to China, he will pull up his own team. Liu Lang himself does not need too advanced technology, he only needs to propose directions. After all, no one can control the development of the world's chip industry like him.
Know how to go.
SMIC has become an iconic enterprise in the country's reform and opening up, and has also made great progress in other industries. For example, the localization process of Volkswagen has improved a lot compared with the previous life. In the previous life, 80% of the localization was localized.
The rate should have been completed in the early 1990s, but in this life, because it was introduced early
German machine tools, at the same time, the country has also increased investment in industry. So far, that is, in November of 1986, the localization rate has reached 50%. If it continues to develop at this rate, it will reach 87 at most.
By the end of the year, the localization rate of 80% will reach the standard, three years earlier than in the previous life.
Such a speed surprised Liu Lang, but if he thought about it carefully, in fact, in his previous life, the country did not pay enough attention to the machinery industry. Especially at the beginning of reform and opening up, when the country needed to introduce a large amount of funds, not only could the machinery industry not be able to do it in the short term,
Making money inside will cost a lot of money.
But in this life, Liu Lang's book "On the Future of the Country" played a key role in making the senior officials realize the importance of mechanical manufacturing. They would rather make less money and engage in mechanical manufacturing. When the top leaders of the country understand
After reaching this point, the machinery manufacturing industry will not be as embarrassed as it was in the previous life.
, at least the country will pay attention to the training mechanism to prevent those industrial workers from living too poor. For example, at this year's national meeting, the draft of the professional title system was passed, and it will be gradually implemented in the future. This is seven or eight years ahead of schedule.
In a few years, it will inevitably arouse strong reactions from society.
Of course, the country's reforms in other aspects are also much faster than in the same period in previous lives. For example, the introduction of a large number of foreign-funded enterprises has been much better. Nike has established three factories in Shenzhen, as well as Coca-Cola, Best Cola and other major national companies.
One after another settled in, Liu
Lang learned about some of the country's statistics this year through his own channels. The entry of thousands of foreign-funded companies has brought billions of dollars and millions of jobs. This is still the data for this year. I believe there will be more next year. These are all
It is not comparable to the same period in previous lives.
It can be said that everything is inextricably linked to Liu Lang, and the butterfly effect created by Liu Lang has begun to form a hurricane.
