The Light of Domestic Products: The whole world begs me to sell

Chapter 438 Overlord Transition
The news that the Phoenix Group was going to build a commercial space station completely shocked the entire meeting room, and the expressions on everyone's faces were exceptionally exciting.

I am still discussing whether to join the "Chip Development Alliance" led by the Phoenix Group, and over there, the new project of the Phoenix Group has started again...

This……

This scientific research strength is too strong!
and.

Phoenix Group, you can still understand the breakthrough of "recyclable launch vehicle", and engage in commercial space stations?

This is too exaggerated, right?
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, with unconcealable shock and surprise in their eyes, and even... a trace of despair.

As a lighthouse country of human technological progress, it is not uncommon for Aramco to propose a commercial space station.

Well known.

Now there is an International Space Station and a Yanguo Space Station in the world.

The International Space Station was jointly built by Mao Xiong, Ami and other countries. Because it has been in use for too long, and because of the recent conflicts between Da Mao and Ami, the International Space Station is basically facing a state of decommissioning.

and so……

In order to ensure that Aramco can continue to carry out manned spaceflight activities in low earth orbit in the future, NASA has begun to promote the so-called "Commercial Earth Orbit Development" (CLD) program to support Aramco's aerospace companies to participate in the research and development of commercial space stations.

Participating in this plan, the more well-known ones are "Blue Origin" and Mountain Space Company founded by Mr. Bezos, the president of Amazon.

They have announced that the two parties will cooperate in the construction of a commercial space station and name it "Space Reef".

In addition, Axiom Aerospace is a little more reliable.

Axiom Aerospace has begun to develop the first living module, intending to dock with the existing "International Space Station", and has signed an agreement with SpecaX to transport commercial passengers to and from the space station in the future.

Not surprisingly, in the future, we will cooperate deeply with SpeacX and use SpeacX's rockets and manned spacecraft.

but……

Even the commercial space station plans of "Blue Origin" and "Axiom Aerospace" are currently basically in the state of PPT propaganda...

And what about the Phoenix Group?

Next month, we will be preparing to start the construction of the first phase of the space station!
Ah this...

For a moment, all eyes were on Brinton.

Just now Mr. Brinton said that he wanted to use the "recoverable launch vehicle" technology exchange quota to get Yan Country to agree to the request...

But now, tsk tsk.

Not to mention "recyclable launch vehicles", the Phoenix Group is even ready to launch a commercial space station.

Brinton's face turned red and white for a while, and then he said something from embarrassment to anger.

"That's it, let's go."

……

As soon as the news that Phoenix Group successfully realized the 15-ton "recoverable launch vehicle" came out, it directly caused a burst of jubilation on the domestic Internet.

And when Phoenix announced that the construction of the "Traveler Space Station" would start in one month, the Internet exploded.

to be frank.

In the past 20 years, Yanguo National Aerospace has not felt weak.

Our satellites, rockets, manned missions and even lunar exploration have all been completed in an orderly manner.

But in the past few years, with the complete rise of the commercial aerospace company headed by Aramco SpeacX, Yanguo's weakness in the field of civilian commercial aerospace has undoubtedly become apparent.

Watching SpeacX completely monopolize the global rocket launch business with the Falcon 9 rocket, watching SpeacX create a historic recovery of the rocket, reuse it, and send countless satellites into space at a price that was never imagined before, you say that netizens are not envious That's fake.

Netizens in Yanguo hope that a company from Yanguo can stand up and compete with SpeacX in this field, so that netizens can see a little hope.

but……

Even if it is as strong as the Phoenix Group, it has never made a breakthrough in the "recoverable launch vehicle".

And now!
Good guy!
Not only directly broke through the technical difficulties of the 15-ton "recyclable launch vehicle", but also directly prepared to build a commercial space station!
hiss--!
This step is too big!

However, I love it.

……

Countless phone calls from fellow businessmen and friends came into the Phoenix Group, and Factory Director Zhang's phone was directly rang.

The public opinion on the Internet is also boiling. Netizens call Phoenix awesome, and the huge popularity once again pushes Phoenix Group to the forefront.

not enough.

Hu Lai was not in a hurry to respond to the matter of the commercial space station, but was going to deal with the matter of the "Chip Development Alliance" first.

Now the whole plan is coming to an end, and it's time to draw a full stop.

Actually.

When Chen Hai informed Phoenix Group that Ami was preparing for the "Nemesis Project", several senior members of Phoenix Group believed that the time was ripe and it was time to challenge Ami's position in the global chip industry.

and so.

Hu Lai and the others used Chen Hai as their contact, and cooperated with Yan Guo officials to formulate this counterattack plan.

In the first step, Phoenix established the "Chip Development Alliance" to export technology to all chip manufacturers around the world, bringing enormous pressure to neutral chip companies.

In the second step, Yanguo officially promulgated the "Chip Act", which made chip companies such as Europe have to make choices considering the pressure of competition.

The third step is to directly drive the Aramco company out of the Yanguo market, either bow their heads or get out.

So far, the whole plan has been implemented very well.

As for why it didn't take the initiative to fight back before, it was because Yanguo was indeed lagging behind Aramco by a lot in terms of high-end chips.

Even if the Phoenix Group is strong, it cannot support itself.

After several years of Phoenix Group's breakthroughs in EDA software and lithography machines, as well as its strong support for the upstream and downstream chip industry chains, Yanguo's high-end chip industry chain has finally reached a certain scale, and it can barely fight!

There may still be gaps in some individual chips, but it is no longer the previous humiliating history of "if you don't sell it to you, you can only stop production".

On the other hand, it is because of production capacity.

After Phoenix Group has developed chips such as "Poxiao 005" and "Xingyao 005", Phoenix Semiconductor's chip production capacity can only barely be enough to supply its own "Super 2" mobile phones, "Starry Sky Notebook" and other electronic products. Continuous output in overseas markets.

And now.

With the continuous expansion of production capacity of Phoenix Group and the localization of 5nm lithography machines, it has driven the expansion of production capacity of domestic chip manufacturers such as SMIC and Huahong Semiconductor.

Now Yanguo's entire chip industry chain has completely caught up, and it is fully capable of exporting chips overseas to occupy overseas markets!
and so……

Combining these reasons, Phoenix Group and Yanguo took the initiative to start this chip "counterattack" against Ami!
Now, the Phoenix Group and Yan Country face the last problem.

Should North American chip companies join the "Chip Development Alliance" led by the Phoenix Group?

In other words, let North American chip companies get out of the Yanguo market completely.

For the last question, Chen Hai and a group of senior experts specially came to the mountain city, and Hu Lai personally participated in the meeting to discuss.

The meeting was chaired by Chen Hai.

"Let me first give an update on the current situation."

"At present, Aramco officials have officially expressed to us that North American chip companies such as Inet, Hongguo, and Qualcomm hope to join our 'Chip Development Alliance', and hope we agree."

"At the same time, they also made a request; I hope we can invite them to join our 'chip development alliance' in the name of invitation."

"We can understand this. After all, Amei hopes to save face and be more decent."

Everyone present chuckled.

Chen Hai also had an unconcealable smile on his face. He looked around the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on Hu Lai.

"of course."

"What we are going to discuss now is the first question, should we allow North American companies to join?"

"If we don't agree, then their request will naturally not be considered."

Speaking of this, Chen Hai saw Hu Lai looking at him with both eyes, and without going around in circles, he opened his mouth and said:

"Mr. Hu, I'll directly express the opinions of our negotiating team."

"After we learned about this matter, we had many discussions. Our point of view is that some North American companies can choose to join the 'Chip Development Alliance' with limited options, and some companies refuse to join with some grandiose reasons."

Oh?
Hu Lailai became interested.

At this time, another negotiator beside Chen Hai took over the conversation:

"That's Mr. Hu, we are based on several considerations."

"The first point is that North American chip companies have surrendered and joined our 'Chip Development Alliance', and the strategic goal of our plan has been achieved."

"After this battle, all chip companies in the world will recognize our status and right to speak in the chip field, which will be of great benefit to our chip companies' exports in the future."

Hu Lai nodded.

"Second point, allowing some companies to join and rejecting others can not only divide their internal forces, but also weaken their chip industry chain to the greatest extent, and make North American officials find no reason."

"In addition to this, the most important thing is that after they join the alliance, our companies can also enter the North American market equally."

"And the third point... is what Director Chen just said. This time Amei made a request, hoping that we will let them join in the name of invitation."

"The promise they gave was that they could increase the number of [-] publicly-funded medical students to study in their top universities for three consecutive years. In addition, they also allowed us to have two opportunities to cooperate with top companies such as Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and Merck in biopharmaceuticals every year. For academic exchange..."

Seeing that Hu Lai's expression remained unchanged, the negotiator became more calm in his speech.

"Factually speaking, the promise they made is indeed what we need very much, and it is even difficult to refuse."

"Although we have caught up with them in the field of chips, we face up to our own shortcomings. We still have a certain gap with them in biopharmaceuticals and clinical medical research."

Hu Lai couldn't help nodding at the end.

indeed.

Yan Guo is now in biopharmaceuticals, original research drugs, and innovative drugs, and there is only Hengrui Pharmaceuticals that can play a little bit, and Fosun Pharma is still far behind.

Even Hengrui Pharmaceuticals, which is the strongest in Yan Country, still has a huge gap compared with the world's top pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer and Merck, even a gap that is difficult to bridge for decades.

At this moment, Chen Hai coughed lightly, interrupting Hu Lai's thoughts.

He looked at Hu Lai and said sincerely:
"Of course, this is just the opinion of our negotiating team."

"If Mr. Hu, you don't want North American companies to join the 'Chip Development Alliance', we also have a corresponding negotiation plan."

"On this point, we definitely support your choice unconditionally."

After the voice fell, all the members of the negotiating team nodded one after another, expressing that they had no objection.

Such a move undoubtedly made Hu Lai very useful. The respect shown by the representatives of the entire negotiating team made him feel that everything he had done was worth it.

After a while.

Hu Lai smiled slightly and said kindly:
"Everything will come according to everyone's plan."

"It doesn't make any difference to us Phoenix Group to let them join the alliance and participate in the competition. We have never been afraid of competition."

As soon as these words came out, bursts of applause came from the audience.

"Mr. Hu is worthy of being a dragon and phoenix among men. This kind of courage is really too domineering."

"That's right... Mr. Hu really has a broad mind. With someone like Mr. Hu, why don't our Yan Kingdom return to the top of the world?"

"Totally agree, this kind of vision and demeanor are really beyond the reach of ordinary entrepreneurs..."

Amid all the sycophants, the meeting continued in a joyful atmosphere.

Immediately afterwards, everyone made a more detailed exchange on which North American companies are allowed to join and which ones are rejected.

Hu Lai quietly listened to the analysis of the negotiating team experts, and saw that after most of the day, basically everything was fully discussed.

Just when Hu Lai thought that the meeting was successfully concluded, Chen Hai suddenly changed the topic to him again when it was nearing the end.

Chen Hai looked at Hu Lai with a smile on his face, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Hu, this time our chip counterattack plan is going so smoothly. We really need to thank you very much. Without you and your company's efforts on chips, our Yanguo chip companies want to achieve the current situation. It takes 15 years.

"However... Regarding this chip counterattack plan, I have always had a doubt and wanted to ask you for advice."

"Oh? Bureau Chen, tell me."

"Now our chip counterattack plan has basically achieved the expected success. Will you continue to open chip technology support to more countries and more companies in the future?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Hu Lai.

Everyone knows that Phoenix Group opened up its technology to challenge Ami's chip status.

Now that Yan Kingdom has undoubtedly become the leader, then...

After more and more companies obtain the chip technology supported by Phoenix, it is bound to make the global chip industry compete, and even affect Phoenix Group.

After hearing this, Hu Lai suddenly smiled.

After thinking about it for a while, he said slowly:
"I have always hoped that Phoenix Group can become a truly global and international company, leading the development of the global industry. At present, we have already achieved this in the chip industry."

"The openness of the chip industry undoubtedly better reflects our attitude; it can better tell all companies in the world that Phoenix Group welcomes globalization and is open."

"And another reason..."

Having said that, Hu Lai paused for a moment, and suddenly a strong and confident smile appeared on his face.

"Everyone here, do you really think that high-end industries like chips can really be played by every company in every country?"

"Without a complete industrial chain, without a huge consumer market, and without a sufficient number of industrial workers, even with our technical support, the chips in most countries will only be idling or barely maintain consumption in a short time."

"The Ganges and Annan next door are the best examples. Without a complete industrial chain, even if the labor cost is advantageous, they will never be able to escape the cheapest low-end manufacturing!"

"so……"

"We are not afraid that technology export will affect us, because our huge domestic market and our unique industrial chain in the world are our unique advantages and the greatest confidence!"

Having said that, all the questions have the best answers.

Amidst bursts of applause, the meeting ended successfully.

……

Two days later, a number of North American chip companies joined the "Chip Development Alliance" led by Phoenix Group.

As expected by the negotiating team, after a small number of North American chip companies were rejected, it did not affect the joining of other North American companies.

soon.

Companies that were excluded from the "Chip Development Alliance", such as ADI, Kingston, Seagate and other companies, began to suffer major blows, sales plummeted, and chip companies throughout North America began to face a reshuffle.

After ADI was eliminated from the Yanguo market, the sales of its main automotive data conversion chips plummeted. Even in overseas markets, it suffered from Waterloo due to the competitive pressure of other chip manufacturers.

The operating difficulties were communicated to downstream suppliers, and almost all of their suppliers suffered losses and had a backlog of inventory.

Most importantly.

Although Yanguo reached an agreement with North American chip companies, the market did not pick up as everyone imagined.

On the contrary, it is because the chip companies headed by the Phoenix Group have been frantically expanding their production capacity, and a large number of chip companies in various countries have built factories. The entire chip production capacity has expanded visible to the naked eye, and chip prices have continued to fall without any waves.

In such a cold winter of chips, coupled with the huge reshuffle of the entire industry, many companies have not survived.

A large number of companies that did not join the "Chip Development Alliance" experienced a wave of bankruptcy and closed down one after another. Even if they joined the "Chip Development Alliance", many companies had to face bankruptcy and reorganization.

For a while, nowhere chip companies went bankrupt, and many companies were newly established. As they came and went, the entire global chip industry underwent tremendous changes.

Among them, the only one that had a good life was the Phoenix Group...

The IDM model of self-production and self-sale has shown amazing cost control effects. Coupled with the sales of equipment for poverty alleviation with foreign technology, Phoenix Group has made a lot of money in this wave.

Just a few months later, the domestic auto chip industry has completely become the mainstream of the Yanguo market, almost completely monopolizing all the auto chips of domestically produced cars.

At the same time, the benefits of the "Chip Alliance" have also emerged.

Many national companies that have accepted Phoenix’s technology for poverty alleviation have begun to produce Phoenix-standard automotive chips, and Phoenix’s high-end automotive chips have gradually entered the local auto industries of these countries...

The results of the computer chip industry, which Hu Lai is more worried about, are not bad either.

Although Inet and Nvidia subsequently joined the "Development Alliance" to stabilize the trend of plummeting sales, after the promotion of "new national standard, national production", the main battlefield of public opinion has been completely fermented.

In addition to this battle, all manufacturers around the world have seen the strength of Yanguo chips and the recognition of North America, and the status of Yanguo Computer has completely stood up.

In just two months, the market share of domestic computers in Yanguo has soared from about 20% to 46%, and it is still rising at an extremely fast speed.

Cell phone chips are the least affected.

However, the mobile phone chip itself is a highly competitive industry, and even the competition for an ordinary radio frequency antenna has reached a bloody level.

Coupled with the rapid development of Yanguo mobile phones in recent years, the overall industrial chain has achieved a lot of localization surpassing North American chips...

Especially after the negotiation team focused on getting stuck with several North American mobile phone companies joining the alliance, it also allowed many Yanguo mobile phone chip companies to take the opportunity to seize orders that originally belonged to North American companies.

It can be said.

After this battle, the vitality of North American chip companies was severely damaged, and everyone saw the huge industrial strength of Yanguo chips.

Global chips, so far, the hegemony has changed, and Yanguo chips have truly entered the global stage.
