Technology: Breaking the monopoly global hegemony

Chapter 174
Suppression is suppression, business is business.

This is an excuse that many know for certain companies.

But Daxia's domestic laser manufacturers have to admit it.

What they supply are the low-end light source components of the lithography machines of chip manufacturers.

However, after foreign countries do not provide high-end light sources, limited by technology, equipment, and talents, Daxia cannot make substitutes in China, even the lowest-quality low-quality substitutes for high-end components.

These chip manufacturers also have to adjust their production capacity and do their best to maintain the only remaining lithography machines.

However, the market share that manufacturers of domestic light source components and equipment can obtain is further reduced.

It was originally an industry that parents didn't care about and uncle didn't love, but now weaned from breastfeeding, many investors just want to find another company to take over the industry that has been thrown into their hands all day long.

High technology is really not worthy of short-term investment, and the profit for one year can even be negative. It is not comfortable to use this money to invest in real estate.

As long as you find a good location, you can spend 17 million yuan in it, and after getting through the joints, you can get 18 million yuan in return at least. (Please note that this refers to the [-]th and [-]th years of Daxia.)
Two days later.

Outside the production workshop of Xiaoguang Technology Co., Ltd.

After a frowning boss Li made a phone call, his joy was beyond words.

"This hot potato finally has someone to take over. This Kyushu Technology is not doing a good job in its own business, but still wants to enter the light source industry. It is really beyond its control."

Although he is not optimistic about the other party, the generosity of Kyushu Technology really makes him overjoyed.

In line with the principle of not wanting to cause trouble and quickly acquire, Dong Qi's acquisition budget is a full [-] million.

Counting the depreciation of the factory equipment, the directors of Xiaoguang Technology settled the accounts, not only stopped the bleeding, but also made a small profit.

Finally, on October [-]th, the factory located in Xiaoguang Technology Co., Ltd. and its subsidiary company changed the name and management, and became the semiconductor equipment production factory of the semiconductor department of Kyushu Technology Company.

This time, Gu Qing did not go to make arrangements in person.

Li You led several talents who had made achievements in the light source project to rush over. They encountered some difficulties in equipment transformation and upgrading. They could connect to the headquarters at any time, and Xuanwu would always provide solutions.

After Gu Qing transported a batch of high-precision robotic arms there, after seven days of intensive transformation, the first batch of light source equipment from Kyushu Technology Company finally came out.

The DUV deep ultraviolet and EUV ultraviolet light emitted by the steady-state micro-beaming SS1MB light source are perfect.

After seeing the product test report, Gu Qing took the time to chat with Gao Shan, the executive vice president and company secretary of Xiaxin Technology, who hadn't been in touch for a while, Uncle Gao.

Gao Shan was still smiling wryly when he heard that Kyushu Science and Technology Company had developed the components of extreme ultraviolet light and deep ultraviolet light source.

"Mr. Gu, I know you're joking, but it's really not funny."

But after getting Gu Qing's very serious explanation, Gao Shan's expression turned from bitter to serious.

He and several other executives have guessed about the Kyushu technology company led by Gu Qing's little brother.

This Kyushu technology company may really be another implementation of the military-to-civilian plan.

Reminiscent of the previous wafer manufacturing technology, he immediately said: As long as the products of Kyushu Technology Company can pass the inspection, someone in Gao must try his best to persuade the management of Xiaxin Technology to use Kyushu products.

For Gao Shan's expression, Gu Qing complied.

He is not worried about product testing compliance at all.

After the communication, Li You rushed to Xiaxin Technology's chip foundry laboratory with the light source components.

After testing, the light source he brought can perfectly replace the light source components of the AS-ML1 lithography machine after debugging, and even the interface is perfectly in line.

This shocked all the engineers in the laboratory.

Some people even suspect that the light source components brought by Li You are the original goods unloaded from another lithography machine.

But when Li You said that this is a new light source developed by Kyushu Technology Company, these engineers all expressed admiration and admiration.

Finding a new light source is now comparable to finding a new element.

Look at the loose hair and dark eye circles of Li You and the others. How could they not know that this new light source is the result of the day and night hard work of the R&D personnel of Kyushu Technology Company.

When Gao Shan learned that Kyushu Technology's new light source was perfectly adapted to his own lithography machine, he immediately organized a management meeting.

Whether it is DUV or EUV, Kyushu Technology Co., Ltd. has light source components, and the quotations given are also sincere.

EUV light source components, starting from 2000 million Xia Yuan.

DUV light source components, starting from 500 million Xia Yuan.

From the perspective of R&D investment and production costs, this offer requires at least [-] sets of EUV light sources to achieve a balance of payments, which is completely "small profits but quick turnover".

But this quotation was carefully calculated by Gu Qing. The overall lithography machine manufacturing, the current Daxia can only make mid-range lithography machines, and it is difficult to get into 28NM.

The current light source equipment is actually more of a shot in the arm for colleagues.

With the inheritance of basic knowledge on the technology side of Dimensional Empire, it is still stable in terms of silicon chips and lithography machines. It just takes time for R&D personnel to implement the technology into products.

And industrial upgrading is not achieved overnight.

If a single company completes the industry, other companies in this industry will have to go bankrupt.

What about laid-off workers?What about industry chain suppliers?
Governing a large country is like cooking small fish, and so is industrial upgrading.

Therefore, after reviewing the professional skills of the former employees of Xiaoguang Company, those who met the standards stayed and arranged a professional skills upgrading learning plan.

Those who paddled and fished were given a one-month observation period.

If the professional skills and attitude are not good, they will also be kicked out.

Because of strict confidentiality, Xiaxin Technology and several other chip foundries and storage chip manufacturers have issued announcements.

Due to the outage of light source components, high-end chips will enter a restricted stage.

Starting from October [-]th, a series of mobile phone manufacturers, storage manufacturers, and graphics card manufacturers that need to use high-end chips, such as Hanxing, Pingguo, N-card, and A-card, almost got together and announced that they would increase the price of their products.

Consumers around the world know that these products will start to increase in price after seeing the announcement, and they also start to panic and stock up.

Seeing the strong buying demand, channel sellers and manufacturers unanimously began to hold up their stocks and refrain from selling them, increasing prices and restricting purchases.

The stocks of companies such as Han Xing, Pingguo, N Card, A Card, Tai Semiconductor, etc. rose sharply.

The Washington Post, Time Magazine, and Asahi Shimbun all have similar front-page articles, to the effect: Daxia’s semiconductor industry is vulnerable, a lithography machine without a high-end light source is like a cannon without shells, and asserts that Daxia’s chip foundry In less than half a year, if you don't move abroad, you will be destroyed.
