Shenhao started as a military training anchor

Anan Ambani, the youngest son of Asia's richest man Ambani, knows Holly.

Even before Holly had conflicts with his family, he was a fan of Holly.

Holly is only three or four years older than him, but his achievements are far beyond his reach.

Even with the family support of India's No. 1 financial group, he can't reach Holly's level.

The youngest global CEO of the year in history is a role model for all young entrepreneurs.

However, Holly made their family lose face in India and even lost control of Tata Steel Group. It was impossible for them to worship him anymore, but they still remained in awe of Holly.

I don't dare to provoke him easily, nor do I dare to cause trouble to my family.

In this college of the National University of Singapore, he is undoubtedly a well-known alumnus of the school. After all, his family is prominent, and it is very prestigious to say that his father is the richest man in Asia.

There were many female alumni who took the initiative to curry favor with him and expressed their feelings to him, but there were only a handful of talented girls like Zhou Yatou who came from a prominent family, were optimistic, cheerful, beautiful and charming.

He took the initiative to approach Zhou Yatou and also wanted to express his feelings for this junior schoolmate.

I didn't expect her to move Holly out.

Holly's words completely dispelled his thoughts.

Respectfully give the passage to Holly so as not to delay his entry into the venue and receive applause.

Zhou girl followed Holly, grinning and giving a thumbs up, "Brother, your name still works."

Holly shook his head and smiled: "I finally understand why Lao Zhou took you to practice shooting, boxing and other sports?"

"Is it because I'm too beautiful?"

“It’s good to be confident, but don’t be too narcissistic.”

"Brother, we're entering the venue now. Let's stop chatting. I'll treat you to dinner tonight." Zhou girl's expression immediately changed.

She volunteered earnestly, led the way for Holly in a dignified and generous manner, walked into the venue, bowed slightly and stretched out her hand, saying, "Mr. Huo, please."

Holly glanced at her and wanted to laugh.

She has a completely different personality from her father.

In life, he is undoubtedly a drama queen.

Holly put away his smile and walked into the venue in a formal manner.

The presidents of major Asian technology companies present at the meeting stood up and came forward to shake hands with Holly. Some of them were investors from Holly's Shunwei Capital, and some were upstream and downstream partners of Holly's industries.

Many have vested interests.

Of course you have to be more respectful.

Of course, Samsung Electronics, TSMC, Nvidia... are no exception in terms of respect.

After all, these companies are leaders in the semiconductor field.

To be honest, although Holly enjoyed the greatest respect and the warmest applause at the scene, there was still a certain gap in chip production capacity between Everest Technology, which he founded, and the other three companies.

There is no such thing as overtaking on a curve in industry. China's basic industries started late and are indeed lagging behind the world's advanced level.

If you want to break through and surpass others, you have to change the track. Just like the automobile industry, China has vigorously developed new energy vehicles, changing the market through its huge market advantages and market influence, and then changing the landscape of the world's automobile industry.

Judging from technological achievements alone, Holly respects companies such as Samsung Electronics, TSMC and Nvidia, which are worth learning from.

However, Hawley has always been contemptuous and even confrontational towards the leaders of these companies and the political forces behind them.

His current identity and status also require this attitude.

The whole society needs it, and the country needs it too.

The host of today's science and technology forum is a professor of economics at the National University of Singapore. She is also Chinese, dignified, beautiful and intellectual.

She first went on stage to introduce the guests who would be discussing the issue today, and warm applause broke out again.

Holly and three others took the stage at the same time.

The person who came from Samsung Electronics was not the head of the Lee family, but Jeon Young-hyun, the head of Samsung's semiconductor industry.

It was very polite to see Holly.

He knew that he was an employee of the Li family and had no right to treat Holly as a member of the Li family.

What's more, the Lee family and LG's Gu family are married, so they are relatives.

Holly and the Gu family have a good relationship and have tens of billions of business dealings. He dare not offend Holly, fearing that he will be fired as the president after returning. Moreover, without the protection of the Li family, he can't even raise his head in front of Holly. Everyone in the peninsula knows that Holly is a person who doesn't even give face to the father and son of the Xin family of Lotte Group.

The matter of the Xin father and son being dealt with by Holly was the hottest topic of discussion on the peninsula at that time.

Many people talk about it, especially the artists in the Peninsula entertainment industry. Peninsula laws cannot deal with the Xin family, but Holly can.

Hawley became famous on the peninsula.

If he were to visit Samsung now, the head of the Li family would definitely give him a warm reception.

Jeon Young-hyun has already made up his mind that today on stage he will only talk about technology and not stir up hatred, so as to leave a good impression on Holly first.

As for the other two, Nvidia's Huang Renxun and TSMC's Liu Deyin, they will definitely have a war of words with Hawley on the stage. What these two people said recently has angered the Chinese people.

He just sits aside and watches the fight.

As soon as he came on stage, the host brought up a very sharp topic, talking about the semiconductor industry.

Ask TSMC’s chairman Liu Deyin directly about the competitive pressure TSMC faces.

Liu Deyin glanced at Holly and Quan Xianyin, a smile appeared on his face, and he replied, "There is competition in any industry, and the competition in the semiconductor industry is even more intense.

TSMC will always have competitors, and our focus is on how fast TSMC progresses.

Is TSMC progressing faster than its competitors? Is there a possibility that it will be overtaken by its competitors?
This is something we need to spend time thinking about.”

Typical slacking rhetoric.

You said it but didn't say it.

The host was very smart. He caught the word "catch up" he mentioned and asked again, "Mr. Huo from Everest Technology is also here today.

Everest Technology and Huawei are also competitors of TSMC. Do you think it is possible for these two technology companies to surpass TSMC? "

Liu Deyin suddenly smiled.

Everyone at the scene started laughing. Let’s see how he would answer.
Liu Deyin said confidently: "Not likely."

There was another round of laughter.

Liu Deyin continued: "Chip production is more difficult than chip design. Huawei and Everest Technology both have the ability to design 5-nanometer chips, but not the manufacturing capabilities.

We at TSMC have achieved mass production of 3 nanometers.

Even if Mr. Huo were sitting next to me today, I would dare to say that there may be companies that surpass TSMC in the field of semiconductor manufacturing, such as AMD, but it will definitely not be Huawei and Everest Technology.

TSMC is making progress in semiconductor manufacturing faster than companies like Everest Technology and Huawei, and the gap will only widen.”

After these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Holly.

Pay attention to his expression.

To be honest, in this situation, Liu Deyin was a little too disrespectful to Holly.

This is his usual style.

The host looked at Holly, "Mr. Huo, do you need a response?"

Holly smiled faintly, picked up the microphone and said, “Recently, the remarks made by some of our fellow Taiwanese have been somewhat unbearable to hear.

I didn't expect that Mr. Liu would bring up this kind of opposing thinking at the technology forum today.

The host just asked whether it is possible for Huawei and Everest Technology to surpass TSMC?
I can understand it in two meanings. One is catching up in technology, and the other is catching up in market size.

I think it won’t take long for the market to catch up.”

This is the truth. Not all industries need to use 5-nanometer or 3-nanometer chips. 7-nanometer is completely sufficient.

However, both Everest Technology and Huawei have the ability to design 5-nanometer chips, and are even designing 4-nanometer and 3-nanometer chips. I believe that this will be achieved in a short time.

To be honest, chip manufacturing still has a long way to go.

The semiconductor industry relies not on a single company, but on the industrial system of an entire country.

In addition to catching up, domestic technology companies, especially the semiconductor research institutes that Everest Technology cooperates with Huawei, SMIC and other companies, are also trying to change tracks to catch up, but it takes time to prove it.

However, Everest Technology's Taichi chip is gaining momentum and may surpass TSMC in the smart terminal market.

Holly continued, "Mr. Liu just kept saying, TSMC is doing this and that.
I would like to ask Mr. Liu, is TSMC yours?

Mr. Liu also mentioned that Everest Technology and Huawei do not have the ability to manufacture chips at 5nm and 3nm. I would like to ask Mr. Liu, are the lithography machines used to manufacture chips independently developed and produced by TSMC? "(End of this chapter)
