Technology: Breaking the monopoly global hegemony

Chapter 112 There is nothing new under the sun
After another round of meetings were held by the presidents and persons in charge of the major companies of the Hanxing Group.

Choi Jin-do, president of Hansung's display department, and Ko Seo-jin, head of Hansung's mobile phone department, embraced again.

Unlike Hansung Semiconductor Company, Hansung's display department and Hansung's mobile phone department have always advanced and retreated at the same time.

The best display screens are always used by the mobile phone department as the flagship mobile phone display of the year. After developing new technologies or improving the quality of the screen, the old screens will be sold to other companies for use.

This is the reason why Xia Wei, a company that competes with Han Xing for share in the international camp, often does not use the best screens of the year.

Among them, Apple and some companies with a large proportion of US capital are naturally not included in this list.

The president requested that the financial report for the second quarter should be bright enough, so Han Xing Mobile and Han Xing Display are naturally brothers.

The Korean star Galaxy S9 released in February used the Infinity Display full-view curved screen. The display problem has caused a wave of mobile phone companies.
Specifically, it is a restoration problem of grayscale content, which makes the screen unable to accurately present different degrees of black shades. The problem presented in use is that an image or video from black to dark gray may be completely replaced by black.

As soon as this problem came out, the financial report for the second quarter was actually half-wasted.

According to the previous solution, when the flagship is released in the second half of the year, use better hardware to wash away the shame.

But this time there is no way to delay the time. If the second quarter cannot survive, everyone will be approved.

The two responsible persons discussed several times and finally came up with a plan.

Urgent release of an upgraded version based on Hanxing Galaxy S9, Hanxing Galaxy S9S.

The screen is 6.4 inches, the full-view curved screen of the Super AMOLED panel, the resolution of Quad HD+ level, 2960×1440 pixels, the pixel density reaches 516ppi, and the screen ratio is still 18.5:9.

"Consumers are actually very forgetful. As long as we come up with better ones, they will forget the bad ones before."

Gao Xizhen patted Cui Jindu on the shoulder and said so.

The two stand side by side, as if forgetting about a certain president.

Extreme pain is the final liberator of the spirit, and only this kind of pain can force us to be enlightened.

With this feeling in mind, Li Jingan walked up to Li Jianxi, bowed and told some of his thoughts and plans.

The head of Han Xing patted him on the shoulder.

"This time, I can give you permission, don't let me down."

The global semiconductor industry in March is like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, which makes laymen feel extremely exciting.

Hanxing Semiconductor and Neon Semiconductor joined forces with TSMC to cause a wave of price increases.

Daxia Jiuzhou Technology stood up and stated that it has a monthly production capacity of 50 pieces and low-cost supply.

Just when everyone thought it was bragging, in order to stabilize the market price, it supplied as promised, and everyone caught off guard.

And Li Jingan, CEO of Hanxing Semiconductor Co., Ltd., said after careful investigation and research that the low-priced wafers of Kyushu Technology Co., Ltd. may not be possible. With the manpower and material resources of Daxia, the production capacity can be expanded, but the production process and equipment consume two factors. Most importantly, it is absolutely impossible for Daxia to surpass other semiconductor companies.

After all, in many international research laboratories today, cutting-edge analysis theories have not been optimized to this point.

Energy issues and manufacturing process precision issues are all difficulties that need to be overcome.

So Li Jingan issued a military order to bankrupt Kyushu Technology Company within three months.

Because according to Daxia's backward production process and equipment, the cost of a twelve-inch silicon wafer would be at least a thousand or more.

According to Xiaxin Technology’s announcement of 490 Xia Yuan per piece, in terms of this price comparison, Kyushu Technology will lose at least [-] Xia Yuan for every silicon wafer it ships.

A production capacity of 50 silicon wafers a month means a loss of at least 2.5 million Xia Yuan a month.

If this company has the help of some funds from Daxia, it may be able to survive for a few months until the price of semiconductors in the international market falls.

But that's an ideal situation amid skyrocketing chip prices.

What if the raw materials suddenly fell?
A silicon wafer manufacturing plant with a monthly production capacity of 50 wafers requires an investment of tens of billions of dollars. Kyushu Technology has a monthly production capacity of [-] wafers, which is [-] billion yuan.

The cost of this scale is faced with the sudden drop in chip prices.

What will happen?

Li Jingan felt excited just thinking about it.

After all, there was a nest of snakes and rats, and Han Xing made a decision. The company over at Nihong saw that there was something wrong, so the two joined forces again.

As for TSMC with the largest share?
It is big, but because it is big, it can't move around. Whatever the second and third brothers want to do, it can only passively cooperate.

April [-]st.

Led by Hansung Semiconductor Corporation, global wafer fabs suddenly and sharply cut prices.

The people who eat melons are all dumbfounded.

what's the situation?
Didn't it be said that the factory fire caused tight production capacity, and the labor cost was getting higher and higher, so the chip price had to rise?
Why did you drop the price all of a sudden?

And it's not a drop of tens of yuan or tens of yuan, but a drop of two hundred yuan or more.

The global wafer price chart is like a person climbing to the top of a mountain and suddenly jumping off a cliff.

The development conference of Hanxing and Neon-related industry personnel said: Because of the optimization of the new process and the improvement of equipment performance, the price reduction is to allow downstream chip foundries to have better and more cost-effective raw materials.

Well, although the name of Kyushu Technology Company is not mentioned between the lines, anyone with a discerning eye can tell what's going on at a glance.

Even the media who have learned of the "insider industry" said.

Kyushu Science and Technology Company raised high debts, used its company as collateral in exchange for a large amount of funds, hired a group of high-quality engineers and experts with high salaries, and spent huge sums of money to build factories and purchase equipment.

So regardless of the fact that Kyushu Technology can produce 50 wafers a month, it has always been operating at a loss.

As we talked, some self-media popped up.

Some harmonious rhetoric began to spread.

What Kyushu Technology Company is actually spending taxpayers' money to subsidize the purchase price of raw materials for non-domestic companies such as Xiaxin Technology.

Obviously there is no shortage of wafers, but some people in China insist on this project if they want to make money.

If the direction of public opinion in the media is skewed, the speeches of netizens will easily be skewed, especially with the large sums of money being swayed by certain institutions, many "knowledgeable" and "reasonable customers" have also stepped down and started gossip.

What is gossip?That's what I heard.

"No wonder those giants want to lower their prices. It turns out that our people ran away when they wanted to make a fortune?!"

"There is nothing new under the sun. Back then, whoever was not, ran away after making a lot of money."

"Tell me a hammer! How could such a large investment be for such a thing!?"

　PS: Good night everyone.

　　A few years ago, I really knew what to do...
