There are two main reasons. First, there are already chips with superior performance and low cost in the market; second, people have no patience to wait for the iteration of domestic chips.
Moreover, the integrated circuit industry is a high-tech industry, and these technologies belong to the physical world composed of scientific and technological innovation.
It is an original technology that requires long-term R&D investment and accumulation, and has high technical thresholds and competition barriers.
...
Generally speaking.
Just two big questions.
One is materials,
The second is processing issues.
To be honest, if Liu Chi thinks he can't build the "Flower of Industry", it's not because the technology is not good, but because the whole project is too big.
Even if there is relevant technology, it cannot be solved.
Automatic design system!!!
...
In the final analysis, there are still two questions;
1:Semiconductor processing equipment
Now it is basically dominated by Country R and Eagle Sauce, as you can see from Intel's best supplier.
The most accurate etching equipment in the world now is Hitachi.
Hitachi is currently developing a grating engraving machine with an engraving accuracy of 10,000g/mm.
To manufacture a CPU requires countless equipment and materials.
2: Semiconductor materials;
Currently, the production of semiconductor chips requires 19 kinds of necessary materials, and one of them cannot be missing. Moreover, most of these 19 kinds of materials have extremely high technical barriers.
That’s why semiconductor material companies occupy a vital position in the semiconductor industry.
...
Hitachi?
Fuji Foundation!!!
Fuji Group, also known as Furong Group, was founded in 1966 and currently consists of nearly 30 large companies.
This consortium has a very large influence in various important fields such as manufacturing, commerce and finance in country r.
Its core companies include Fuji Bank, Nissan Motor, Nippon Steel Pipe, Sapporo Beer, Hitachi, Marubeni, Canon, and Japan's largest bearing manufacturer "Nihon Seiko".
...
Half an hour later.
Liu Chi couldn't help but smile.
As long as the eagle sauce is eliminated, the higher ups in Country R will take care of it themselves.
As long as the core technology is in your own hands, you have nothing to worry about.
That.....
Can we cooperate for a while now?
Liu Chi thought for a while, pulled out Jiang Yu's mobile phone number and pressed the dial button.
‘Du, du, du…’
"Boss, this is Jiang Yu." After the ringtone rang a few times, Jiang Yu's voice reached Liu Chi's ears from the mobile phone.
"Jiang Yu, do you have the contact information for Hitachi in Country R?"
"Hitachi Group?" Jiang Yu asked doubtfully.
"Yes, it would be better if it were from the Fuji Foundation." Liu Chi said.
"Boss, do you want to cooperate with the Fuji Foundation?" Jiang Yu was startled.
That is one of the four major financial groups in country R!
Is it appropriate?
"Why not? There are many companies under the Fuji Consortium that we can cooperate with. The most important thing is that they are from country r and are subordinates of Yingjiang." Liu Chi asked rhetorically.
"Boss, do you want to divide them?"
"I have to try it. Anyway, there are a lot of pieces of meat."
"Okay, I understand. I'll look for it right away. Boss, are you waiting for it?" Jiang Yu instantly understood what Liu Chi meant.
“Get the best you can.”
"Okay, boss, give me ten minutes."
"good."
"..."
8 minutes later.
Jiang Yu sent a number to Liu Chi's WeChat.
Liu Chi thought for a while and pressed the dial button directly.
"こんにちは!"
"Hello!" Liu Chi.
"Hello!"
"Is this Mr. Yasuda from the Fuji Foundation?" Liu Chi asked, listening to the old and thick voice.
"Who are you?"
"Flower grower, No. 9 Technology Liu Chi!" Liu Chi announced his family name.
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a long time before he reacted and asked in a suspicious voice: "I wonder if Mr. Liu called you to ask for something?"
"I want to cooperate with the Fuji Foundation. I wonder if Mr. Yasuda is interested." Liu Chi didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
"cooperate?"
"right!!!"
"I wonder how Mr. Liu wants to cooperate?"
"I think Mr. Yasuda should know the situation of our company No. 9 Technology, so I won't explain it here." Liu Chi thought for a while and said: "I want to bring down the Aier family. I don't know what Mr. Yasuda has."
Don’t have the guts?”
Anyway, the fight between him and the Aier family is not a secret.
Once the level reaches a certain level, it is difficult to figure it out.
With the Fuji Foundation, it is impossible to say that we don’t understand.
After all, the two major forces are currently fighting each other.
...
"Mr. Liu, are you serious?"
"Do you think I'm joking?" Liu Chi asked, "Or maybe Mr. Yasuda thinks my No. 9 Technology doesn't have this ability?"
"What is the method of cooperation?" On the other end of the phone, after more than ten seconds of acquiescence, the voice came out again.
"As long as you can withstand the pressure of Yingjiang, you can talk about anything. Of course, core technology is impossible." Liu Chi didn't beat around the bush, and added: "After all, I can't always fight alone.
Teammates still need it."
"Let me think about it!"
"Okay, then I'll wait for news from Mr. Yasuda."
"..." After Liu Chi hung up the phone, after thinking for a moment, he found Boss Ren's phone number and made a call.
"Mr. Liu, good evening!"
"Boss Ren, is it convenient now?"
"It's convenient, Mr. Liu, you have something to say." Ren Fei's old and powerful voice came into Liu Chi's ears.
"Now... we can be said to be brothers in need." Seeing that Boss Ren was silent, Liu Chi continued: "In terms of chips, HiSilicon is the most powerful in the country, so I want to cooperate with you.
"
"What kind of cooperation?" Ren Fei asked doubtfully.
"Ai chips, are you interested?" Liu Chi asked.
"AI chip?" Ren Fei was surprised. After a while, he asked suspiciously: "Do you have relevant technology?"
"I have one for computers, but not for mobile phones."
"I will come to your company tomorrow and we will discuss it in detail then." Ren Fei decided immediately.
"Okay, you can go directly to my industrial park, tell me the time, and I can arrange the time."
"good!"
"..." After Liu Chi hung up the phone, he sorted out the information on the AI chip.
...
"Husband, go to bed."
"Aren't you going to watch TV?" Liu Chi raised his head after hearing this, looked at Ye Yuxin who walked in from the door in pajamas, and asked.
"Don't even look at what time it is." Ye Yuxin walked to Liu Chi and asked, "Have you finished your work? It's past eleven o'clock, and it's almost time to go to bed."
"Okay, right away!" Liu Chi glanced at the information on the computer screen that was still a little bit unorganized, then looked at the time in the lower right corner of the computer, and said: "Wait a minute, it's still a little more than ten minutes.
That’s almost it.”
"Yeah!" Ye Yuxin stood quietly behind Liu Chi.
Twenty minutes later, Liu Chi took out a USB flash drive, copied the AI chip data he had just sorted, and said, "Okay, let's go."
"Okay!" Ye Yuxin took Liu Chi's hand and walked out of the study.
