Rebirth Tokyo 1986

Chapter 93 Talent Returns
While Masato Takeshita was busy with his radio project, Fujio Masuoka finally bought a ticket to return to Japan, the country he had been dreaming of.

"finally reached."

Fujio Masuoka looked at the land of Tokyo, his heart filled with excitement. Although he was going to a new company, he still had the confidence to create a new era.

Because Fujio Masuoka's new invention has already seen the light of day and will soon lead the development of flash memory technology again.

He wanted to make Toshiba regret it and remember this mistake forever.

Talent is not to be suppressed, but to be respected.

Welcome home, Chief."

"Welcome home!"

"Well, thank you all for welcoming me."

"Section Chief, this is what we should do."

Fujio Masuoka didn't expect that his subordinates would come to pick him up today.

But if you think about it, it's easy to understand.

Toshiba has already sold off its entire flash memory division. Everyone is worried about the future, so it is natural for them to regard the leader as the backbone and gather around him again.

"Don't worry, although I don't know much, I know that he should be a person who respects technology."

Although Matsumoto Manufacturing's good treatment is not well known in Japan, it is not difficult for those who are interested to find it. Therefore, Matsumoto Manufacturing's current poaching is becoming more and more successful.

Everyone hopes to work in a company with good treatment and humane staff.

After comforting his subordinates, Fujio Masuoka did not even take a rest and went directly to Toshiba's chip research institute.

After figuring it out, he didn't want to stay in this depressing hell for a moment.

After a polite greeting, Takeishi Koki asked softly, "Masuoka-san, don't you want to take a break?"

"No thanks, can I meet the new boss today?"

"Don't worry for now. Let's do it tomorrow. I'll call Mr. Tarui and your future boss over tomorrow."

Takeishi Koki checked the time and decided to set the date for tomorrow. Tarui Yasuo was a busy man, and he didn't want to interrupt the schedule of this semiconductor veteran.

Anyway, there is no need to rush about this matter. Toshiba doesn't need this little salary at all.

"Thank you, Director."

"It's okay, go home and rest first. Look at you, your eyes are red and bloodshot."

"Okay, then, goodbye, Director."

"See you!"

Fujio Masuoka certainly didn't get enough rest, not only on the plane, but he hadn't slept since Takeishi Koki hung up the phone yesterday.

He wondered why?
Why can a president whom I don't know choose to go all in on semiconductors for me? On the contrary, Toshiba, which cultivated me, is dismissive of me.

In the United States, semiconductor companies frequently poached him, offering him salaries that were more than five times higher than his current salary, and some even offered him shares as an inducement.

He chose not to agree because he wanted to develop his country's semiconductor industry.

That’s right, Fujio Masuoka was a simple patriot.

If an ordinary person encountered a disaster like his, he would have died long ago.

Fujio Masuoka did not.

No matter how poor he was, he never thought of taking his technology out of Japan, nor did he think of doing research and development for foreign companies.

The reason why he agreed this time was because Masato Takeshita was Japanese.

If it was a foreign company, he would not leave even if the benefits were enormous. Even if he was squeezed out by Toshiba one day, he would still not leave.

In his previous life, Fujio Masuoka truly practiced this life creed.

After being squeezed out of Toshiba, he went to teach at Tohoku University instead of choosing a foreign company with a higher salary.

After a night's rest, Fujio Masuoka regained a lot of energy. As soon as he entered the institute, he was greeted by an enthusiastic young man: "Hello, Mr. Masuoka, I am Masato Takeshita, and I am glad to meet you."

"Um, hello, President Takeshita."

Fujio Masuoka was a little dizzy because of Masato Takeshita, but the young man's performance made him feel relieved after all.

It seems that this company really values technical personnel.

At Toshiba, he had never seen the president treat technicians like this.

Some just gave instructions and scolded.

After a brief greeting, Takeishi Koki said directly to Takeshita Masato: "Takeshita-kun, I will leave Masuoka-kun to you, and Japan's flash memory will also be handed over to you."

Flash memory was still a new technology, and even within Toshiba, not many people were involved. The dozen or so engineers this time were all the talent in Toshiba.

"President Takeishi, please rest assured. I will definitely treat everyone the best. From now on, whatever treatment the president gives you, I will give Masuoka-kun the same treatment."

Xinghai Semiconductor implements the most advanced salary system, where the salary of the company's president = the salary of the company's chief scientist.

In other words, after Fujio Masuoka joins the company, his salary will be the same as Masato Takeshita's, which is 3000 million yen.

Although not as much as abroad, it is definitely the best in Japan. And this is just the current salary. When Xinghai Semiconductor grows stronger, it is not a dream to have a basic salary of over 100 million.

This is just the basic salary. If there is any breakthrough invention, the company will also give bonus shares to the researchers.

Taking NAND flash memory chip as an example,

As soon as the chip is commercialized, dividends will be distributed to Fujio Masuoka and the entire team.

This dividend is paid every year and varies with sales. It is estimated that by the 21st century, the entire team will receive at least 100 billion in dividends every year.

What Masato Takeshita has to do is to buy bones at a high price.

It doesn’t matter that companies like Toshiba don’t value scientific researchers, because Xinghai Semiconductor does.

Maybe the Japanese government will thank Xinghai Semiconductor at that time.

Because in the past, scientific researchers from semiconductor giants such as Toshiba were poached by companies such as Samsung and TSMC, and even the mainland has poached countless talents.

Toshiba is a sick company.

They do not attach importance to the treatment of scientific researchers, nor do they attach importance to scientific research.

Later, flash memory chips had become the company's largest profit project, but the flash memory project was sold in favor of the half-dead nuclear power technology.

All I can say is that such a company deserves to decline and be delisted.

It would be best to go bankrupt immediately.

"Uh, is this really okay?"

Fujio Masuoka was a little overwhelmed. He never expected that one day he would be on equal footing with the president.

"Of course, I want to build a world-class semiconductor company. How can I do that without valuing talent?"

"Yes, how can we not value talents?"

Takeishi Koki's smile was a little bitter at this time. He didn't know where Toshiba's research would go after he left.

"That's what it's like. That's the kind of semiconductor company I want to see."

Yasuo Tarui was also very dissatisfied with the exploitation of scientific researchers by Japanese semiconductor companies, and felt that problems would arise sooner or later.

Masato Takeshita made him see a different future, and he worked harder as a result.

"Thank you, thank you President Takeshita."

Fujio Masuoka wanted to cry. This was the first company he had encountered in Japan that valued his scientific research results.

A scholar dies for a confidant.

He swore that as long as Xinghai Semiconductor was not too bad, he would do his best to help the company develop more new technologies.
