Our Rise Era

Chapter 270 Live!

Chapter 270 Live!
Since joining the WTO at the beginning of the millennium...

China has experienced too many ups and downs.

With a strong drive, they fought their way out of the lowest end of the industrial chain and achieved economic take-off.

but……

Looking back over the years.

China has never stopped being dominated by the West in the field of science and technology.

From materials technology to food, from the US dollar financial system to the civilian technology system, and then to the semiconductor field...

In every aspect, they were defeated.

And once...

When Europe and the United States are about to start a trade war with China...

So, how much self-protection ability does China have?

..............................

Zhang Yang left.

Song Guifang silently looked at the information left by Zhang Yang.

Her expression gradually became serious.

Data shows that China's semiconductor industry was still in a very backward era as of 2013.

The gap in technology, if I were to describe it in one sentence, would be at least 10 to 15 years...

China now...

It's just like the old America before the millennium...

A very desperate reality, but one that we have to face.

4 o'clock in the afternoon.

The sky is gray.

After reading the information, Song Guifang stood up silently and walked towards the office of her leader Chen Zhonghe in the distance.

After knocking on the door, she expressed her concerns and handed all the information provided by Zhang Yang to her leader Chen Zhonghe.

“The photovoltaic industry is a wake-up call.”

"The rule of the West is to keep us in a low-end industrial chain, to serve them, and to lock us in forever..."

"If it is the millennium, in order to have enough food to eat and to make people live better, we can only do things under the rules of others..."

"However, China has a population of 13 billion. Once we really stand up step by step under the rules of the West, it will inevitably affect the interests of the West. The West will not allow us to continue to grow..."

"Unless all of us are willing to maintain the status quo, take on the lowest-level industries, and always be service providers..."

"In that case, we don't even need to upgrade the industry, we can just lie down and do nothing..."

"otherwise……"

"I think that this future battle might really be fought just like Zhang Yang did!"

“This contradiction is irreconcilable.”

"If we don't prepare in advance, or neglect it, then we will continue to be at the mercy of others."

"..."

After Chen Zhonghe listened to Song Guifang's words silently, his expression gradually became serious.

He lowered his head and looked at the documents on the desk.

After thinking for a long time, he nodded.

"Hold a meeting, listen to other people's opinions, and some experts' opinions..."

"it is good!"

....................................

9 month 16 day.

The rain is still falling.

Zhang Yang sat in a chair, waiting for a call from the business department.

Challenging the chip industry chain that has long been laid out by the West with the power of one person is undoubtedly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot or an egg hitting a stone...

and so……

He needs to borrow the power of the country.

If we could get help from the country at this time, like the strong support for the photovoltaic industry, perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the phone finally rang.

"boss Zhang……"

"how's it going?"

"..."

Song Guifang on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, then said, "Come out and talk."

"it is good!"

Zhang Yang walked out of the hotel, holding an umbrella, and walked silently to the coffee shop next door.

After renting a private room and waiting for about ten o'clock, Zhang Yang saw Song Guifang push the door and enter.

There was no smile on Song Guifang's face, and her expression was extremely complicated. When she sat down, she seemed to be brewing something to say.

"Leader, is everything not going well?" Zhang Yang asked this question immediately.

"The meeting lasted from six to nine o'clock. It was a three-hour meeting. We invited several experts from Huaqing University to discuss the topics of 'chips' and 'systems'..."

Song Guifang was silent for a moment and finally spoke.

Zhang Yang nodded: "What did the meeting say?"

"We have prepared a set of data, which mentioned that the cornerstone of our economic development in the past 20 years is actually the integrated circuit industry. All experts highly recognize this. In addition, the experts' opinions are very simple. They believe that through this set of data, it can be seen that what restricts our semiconductor development is not the so-called lack of enterprises, lack of design talents or lack of funds, but..." Song Guifang paused.

"But what?"

"Since joining the WTO in the millennium, our country has now been fully integrated into the global technology system, especially in industries such as automobiles and consumer electronics, which have reached international standards. Some have even become an important part of international production. The international rule is that everyone cooperates with each other and plays the right role in their own industry..." Song Guifang sighed, "Mr. Zhang, you should know that we have invested a lot in the chip industry and have a lot of international projects. In an industry that is already mature and we have a deep understanding of it, we have to get out of it and do another one... The price we pay is heavy after all..."

When hearing this, Zhang Yang finally fell silent.

A mature industrial chain is equivalent to curbing the lifeline of many industries.

Once you break away from that industrial chain and start making your own things, it will definitely have a huge impact in the short term.

"The final point is also very simple. We should not develop different systems, nor should we develop chips ourselves. We should integrate with the world and connect with the world... continue to be the world's factory and continue the achievements we have made in the wave of globalization in recent years..." "..."

"In addition, several experts said that we should express our sincerity to Europe and the United States. We should not be the one breaking the rules. We should open up the market to a greater extent and prove the huge potential of our market..."

"..."

"They used Japanese semiconductors as an example, saying that in the fierce market competition, it is foolish to break away from the European and American systems and make self-protection plans. In the end, they will only be excluded from international cooperation and be left alone."

"..."

When Zhang Yang heard this, he was speechless at this moment.

I can't hide my disappointment.

"This road is not easy to walk." After watching Zhang Yang looking away, Song Guifang sighed and said quietly: "Our entire China is highly dependent on Europe and the United States. We do value the chip industry, but we cannot break the rules. Our current systems in all aspects are extremely weak. A single move can affect the entire body..."

"I understand." Zhang Yang nodded.

The disappointment in his heart was beyond words, but then, with a thought, he seemed to understand another meaning of Song Guifang: "Leader, you mean that you can't publicly support it, is that what you mean?"

"The cost of trial and error for enterprises is high, but the cost of trial and error for the country is even higher... We cannot get out of the game until the critical moment comes. If we get out of the game rashly, the meaning will be different."

"When is the critical moment?" Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes.

Song Guifang did not respond to this sentence: "You guys just live well first!"

When Zhang Yang heard this, he moved slightly: "Leader, we need relevant talents, what should I do?"

"I remember that you [Shenglan Technology] have signed agreements with various universities in the photovoltaic field before, right?"

"Yes, but that is the field of polycrystalline silicon and monocrystalline silicon, not including...wait, you mean you can help us in the middle..."

"..."

Song Guifang glanced at Zhang Yang but didn't say anything. She just finished her coffee and stood up: "Mr. Zhang..."

"Ok?"

"You guys live well."

Under the light, she said this again.

..........................................

"iPhone 5S has sold about 3000 million units..."

“And our sales have stagnated…”

"..."

"We fully adjusted the adaptation for low-end devices in October..."

"but……"

"It's too late. The market no longer belongs to us."

"..."

September passed by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was autumn, November.

As the 4G era approaches.

The entire Chinese mobile phone market has ushered in the most insane stranglehold...

Almost every once in a while, a mobile phone equipped with the [Android system] appears, and almost every once in a while, we hear news about various [food delivery apps] fighting each other for market share.

but……

In the autumn of 2013…

For [Novia] Davis, it was the most desperate autumn.

Low-end phones are being squeezed out by Android, and their once confident quality and cameras have become worthless at this moment...

High-end phones died in the hands of iPhone 5S...

The internal strife among the top management and the mistakes in strategic direction completely pushed Novia into a dead end.

A few months...

Davis heard the sound of [The Empire Collapse].

On the evening of November 5th.

Davis looked at the sunset in the distance bitterly.

"We didn't do anything wrong, but I don't know why, we lost..."

"The 4G era hasn't even begun yet, and I didn't expect that we would be the first unlucky ones to be eliminated..."
