Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading - Vol 2 Chapter 439
It took Mu Yang a few days to output the drawings of EBL lithography machines, etching machines, ion implanters, coating machines and other equipment for chip manufacturing.
The system blueprint is already in Mu Yang’s mind. He only needs to imagine that it can be quickly displayed in the software by using the human-brain converter. It takes a few days, which is not fast. four weeks.
At the same time, a list of materials is listed, and the company’s purchasing department is responsible for purchasing, so as to find out which parts can be bought as soon as possible, and if they cannot be bought, immediately start independent research and development.
For example, Holland ASML, as the world’s largest lithography machine manufacturer, occupies 80% of the world’s market share.
A high-end lithography machine has as many as 100,000 internal parts, but the parts are not from ASML alone, but from a number of high-tech manufacturers.
Among the 100,000 parts, Holland and Eagle Country accounted for about 32%, Pretty Country accounted for 27%, De Country accounted for 14%, and Island Country accounted for 27%. There are more than 5,000 suppliers in total. .
The manufacturing difficulty of the lithography machine is mainly the alignment system and the ultraviolet light source system.
The EBL lithography machine Muyang chose is a relatively simple one, and the parts are not as complicated as the EUV lithography machine, but the precision of the parts is also required to be extremely strict.
Many parts of the lithography machine are custom-made, and the order quantity is small, and the manufacturer is not willing to accept the order, but the most important thing is that they do not sell to Huaguo enterprises.
A company like ASML has an annual shipment of about 15 units in the past two years. That is to say, a chip manufacturing company like Moss Semiconductors will not have more than 100 lithography machines.
Moss Semiconductors purchased lithography machines from ASML, which was actually restricted by the beautiful country, such as being restricted from selling chips to Warwick after a few years. If you are not obedient, then TSMC will never be able to buy lithography machines in the future, and it will be difficult to sell chips to the beautiful country.
Answer TSMC wants to make money, but there are some things that are very helpless. Now, Mu Yang just wants to break the rules of the beautiful country. He decides the rules for future chips!
If the Xinghai Group dumps high-end chips at low prices for two years, the global chip manufacturing industry will all be over.
But if you want to dump it, it can’t be realized in the beautiful country;
For Mu Yang, it doesn’t matter if he earns less money, he is happy if it can make ASML and other companies, as well as these developed countries, uncomfortable.
Not to mention avenging Warwick’s revenge, he just can’t understand the faces of these countries, and he can step on as many times as he can.
If Muyang wants to occupy most of the global high-end chip market, based on the technical situation and production efficiency of the EBL01 lithography machine, 50 to 100 lithography machines will be needed in the next five years.
Therefore, Mu Yang ordered parts for 50 units, so as not to be unavailable in the future.
Xinghai Group has an advantage that Answer Semiconductor and ASML companies do not have, that is, Xinghai Group has the world’s top processing capabilities, as long as it can be manufactured with metal and 3D additive equipment, it will be directly manufactured with this equipment and directly solve the problem. , meeting most of the parts requirements.
For example, the EBL lithography machine also requires an alignment system. Generally speaking, there are two main problems in the alignment system, precise mechanical technology and alignment microscope system.
This should be easy to understand. After all, the line width of the electron beam is so small, and it is required to draw it, which must require high-precision mechanical equipment.
The Xinghai Group has just solved the key technology of the top CNC machine tools, and the difficulty of reproducing the equipment for the alignment system is much lower.
Therefore, if Xinghai Group does not lay a solid foundation, even if it has top-notch lithography machine technology, it will not be able to produce it if it cannot buy parts.
The Xinghai Group’s chip manufacturing project team has been established for several months, with about 100 people. They are all graduates who joined the company in the past three years, mainly master’s and doctoral students.
In the past few months, the progress of the project has been extremely slow. The main task is to learn the technology of chip manufacturing. In order to train this group of people, the company has invested a lot of manpower and material resources, including hundreds of millions of dollars in the purchase of precision equipment.
Now that the project is officially launched, continue to expand the project team.
According to the composition of chip manufacturing equipment, Muyang is divided into several
Large groups, and then subdivide groups according to each model of equipment.
For example, the lithography machine, according to the overall structure, is divided into more than a dozen systems such as the lighting system, the mask table system, the automatic alignment system, the leveling and focusing measurement system, and the frame shock absorption system. Each system consists of 5 to 30 R & D personnel.
If there are insufficient personnel, then transfer from other parts of the company.
The R&D project of lithography machine alone requires two to three hundred R&D personnel.
In order to get this chip manufacturing done, the one billion yuan invested in the early stage is almost spent. Now that it is officially launched, it is time to really spend money. The second batch is going to invest 10 billion yuan.
Only the Xinghai Group is so “wealthy and rich” and casually spends tens of billions in cash.
Without investing tens of billions before and after, Mu Yang felt that it was difficult to produce chip samples, even if he had the relevant technology himself.
On the morning of January 12, Muyang held a meeting of the chip manufacturing project team and required all members of the project team to participate.
Many people felt a little strange. When the project team was established, the chairman called them for a meeting, and they never held a meeting after that. Now they rarely come to the chip manufacturing laboratory for inspections. They are allowed to study and train freely without asking questions. It seems that they are not very optimistic about the success of this project, so they hold their breath and try to prove it to the chairman, but the chip manufacturing technology is really too difficult.
They knew that the company was developing wafers, but they couldn’t find any information about the wafers, as if all the information was blocked.
Ten minutes before ten o’clock, everyone entered the meeting room with doubts and sat waiting for the chairman to arrive.
When it was almost ten o’clock, Mu Yang walked into the conference room, glanced at the people in the conference room, and said: “In more than ten days, the company will be on holiday, and many departments have begun to relax.
However, your project team is going to be busy, and there are a lot of things to do before the holiday. If the success of chip manufacturing is one day later, the greater the variables.
Now, the team leaders first report on the work of the project team since its establishment. ”
After Mu Yang finished speaking, the team leaders began to report their work.
While Mu Yang listened to the work reports of the team leaders, he observed the loyalty of the employees in the conference room.
In order to prevent spies from entering the core project team, he had to conduct a loyalty test on every member. This money had to be spent, and it cost nearly 100 million yuan at once. He still felt very sorry for the system money.
After the reports of the team leaders, Mu Yang also tested the loyalty of all the staff, all of them were green above their heads, and all of them were above 80.
These graduates are extremely loyal to Mu Yang. It can also be said that Mu Yang is their idol.
“It’s normal for R&D projects to fail, the most important thing is whether you have made progress and whether you will make the same mistakes again.
Holding this meeting today represents the official launch of the project team. After the meeting, I will upload the relevant information to the technical system. Everyone can view the technical information and work tasks according to their responsibilities and permissions. You should familiarize yourself with the information as soon as possible. Many parts need to be customized, and you need to be responsible personally, and communicate with the manufacturer in person with the purchasing department. If necessary, you need to go to the manufacturer to inspect the actual situation in person.
If the purchase is not available, report it as soon as possible, then we can only develop independently.
In this project, I will work with you until the chip sample is manufactured. ” Mu Yang concluded.
As soon as he finished speaking, all the R&D personnel in the conference room were surprised that the chairman was finally going to lead their project.
“I once said that the Xinghai Group wants to develop its own chips. It is not a joke. Although this project has only been established for a few months, in fact, we have been preparing for two years.
In the past few months, you should also understand that the EUV lithography machine, the key equipment for chip manufacturing, and other related equipment, if we follow their path, we will not be able to bypass their technical patent protection scope.
Therefore, the EBL electron beam lithography machine is our way. The information I sent to you is the result of our company within two years, and the theoretical technical level can reach the world’s first.
However, theory is theory and practice is required.
Now, you need to test
Prove it, make it out, and refine it. “Mu Yang said this to explain the source of the information, and it will not be revealed in a short time.
EBL electron beam lithography machine?
I just heard about it. Could it be that another secret team of the chairman has been developed?
After hearing Mu Yang’s words, these employees were very surprised. They really didn’t expect that the company still has a secret scientific research team, which has advanced the chip research and development to the point where it has relevant technical information.
The technical manager couldn’t help exclaiming and discussing with his colleagues, and he couldn’t help raising his hand to ask: “Chairman, do we really want to develop an EBL electron beam lithography machine?”
“Yes, the blueprints and craftsmanship are out, and you need to verify them.” Mu Yang nodded lightly.
After getting the chairman’s confirmation, and the blueprint has come out, these scientific researchers were very happy, which showed that the chairman was already very confident.
This news also gave these helpless researchers a shot in the arm.
There is hope!
“Once again, keep confidential. Except for your department personnel, it is forbidden to talk about the project content outside the project team, including your family members, let alone reveal that we are conquering chip manufacturing technology.” Mu Yang knocked down the table and ordered seriously, ” I hope you understand the importance of this program and the dire situation we are in.
I also hope that you must remember that technology has national boundaries. Developed countries want us to go bankrupt. Once they find that we have developed advanced chips, they will definitely impose various restrictions on us, and even destroy us by state means.
You are not the fringe figures of a small company, but the core personnel of a top technology company. Everything you do can lead the development of the world.
I hope that you can manufacture the world’s top domestic chips, and give foreigners a resounding slap in the face with your outstanding results.
However, I also want to remind you that before you achieve results, please let go of your pride and past achievements, and work hard with a low profile. ”
Mu Yang’s last few words made many employees excited, but at the same time, he also faced up to his work mentality.
Next, Mu Yang opened the PPT, explained the general situation and framework technology of EBL, and assigned tasks at the same time.
Mu Yang doesn’t talk too much in meetings, and he doesn’t like to discuss problems in the meeting. Discussing problems in the conference room just wastes the time of other participants who have nothing to do with the problem, and discussing problems can’t be solved in a short while of.
After the meeting, Mu Yang had a lot of things to do before the year.
On January 15, 2014, Mu Yang went to BJ to participate in the 2013 National Science and Technology Awards Conference.
Xinghai Group has been nominated for a number of items, among which a technology of automobile lithium battery NCMS01 won the first prize of the National Technology Invention Award, and Mu Yang participated in receiving the award as the legal representative of the company.
It can be said that apart from the two winners of the highest science and technology award and one of the first prizes of natural science, the first prize of the National Technological Invention Award is too difficult to win. This time there were ten nominations, but only two were selected in the end. Xinghai Group still Like last year, it was obtained by relying on strong strength.
It was the second time for him to step into the Great Hall, so he was less excited and more calm.
After the awards were presented, Mu Yang hurried back to City H. It was approaching the end of the year and there was a lot of work.
A few days ago, the company’s financial statement came out, Zhou Chen checked it and submitted it to Mu Yang, but Mu Yang had no time to read it.
After Mu Yang came back from the BJ meeting, he sat in the office again, and only had time to read the harvest of last year.
Xinghai Machinery Processing Co., Ltd., with an original business revenue of 1.15 billion yuan, is responsible for the machining tasks of the entire group company;
However, after adding the metal 3D additive processing business, the business volume has increased significantly. At present, the company has a total of 50 metal 3D additive equipment in full load operation. In a few months, the revenue has reached 1.2 billion yuan.
The metal 3D additive processing business is an emerging industry. Today, Xinghai Group has become the world’s largest metal 3D additive factory. With word of mouth fermenting, the monthly business volume has skyrocketed. It is expected that in 2014, the output value will reach 12
billion.
Xinghai Welding Technology Co., Ltd., which merged the original laser company and welding technology company, had an annual revenue of 22.05 billion yuan last year;
Xinghai System Co., Ltd. mainly sells industrial software AD and XH-CAD, with a revenue of 12.5 billion yuan, which has caused many troubles for competitors.
Xinghai Outdoor Equipment Co., Ltd. still mainly sells semiconductor refrigeration chips, and now has expanded other semiconductor businesses, with a revenue of 15.5 billion yuan;
Xinghai Automobile Co., Ltd., motors, automatic driving systems and other auto parts, overseas revenue is 1.95 billion US dollars; car sales are the company’s largest revenue, reaching 108 billion yuan (excluding overseas Hummer company business), domestic Hummer sales Nearly 100,000 vehicles, 100 vehicles for Future 01 and 100 for Future 02, have been delivered.
Xinghai Material Technology Co., Ltd. mainly sells titanium alloys, aluminum alloys and special steels, with a revenue of 31.2 billion yuan;
Xinghai New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. has overseas revenue of 6 billion US dollars, of which overseas Hummer company contributed 70%; domestic revenue reached 68.4 billion yuan. Among them, the shares belonging to Xinghai Group accounted for 66%, and Xinghai Investment Company accounted for 13%, but they were not included in the revenue of Xinghai Group.
There are not many technology authorizations, mainly the authorization of lasers, which costs 9.1 million US dollars per year, followed by the authorization of bearing materials and bearing technology, which also costs 20 to 30 million yuan~www.mtlnovel.com~ plus other scattered technologies Authorizations add up to 100 million yuan.
The revenue of the entire group is 204.8 billion yuan, and the pre-tax profit is close to 100 billion yuan.
This 204.8 billion yuan revenue still does not include the nearly 100 billion yuan of Xinghai New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and the more than 100 billion yuan of overseas Hummer Company.
At last year’s annual meeting, Xinghai Group’s annual planned revenue was 300 billion yuan.
Of course, this revenue includes the revenue of overseas Hummer companies and new energy companies. If counted, it has been completed, reaching 400 billion yuan.
However, Xinghai New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and Overseas Hummer Company have been separated from the Xinghai Group system, and Overseas Hummer Company is independently listed in the beautiful country.
On November 1 last year, the overseas Hummer company went public. The opening price was 45 dollars, and the closing price was 65.5 dollars. The current stock price is 68 dollars.
Tesla’s stock price has risen sharply in the past year, and Xinghai Investment Company owns 18% of its shares;
The market value of Xiaozu Laser Company has risen to 20 billion yuan, and Xinghai Group Technology holds 10% of the shares;
Moreover, Xinghai New Energy Company is also optimistic about the situation of new energy vehicles, and its valuation has also risen sharply.
Mu Yang didn’t calculate it carefully, but he also knew that his wealth continued to skyrocket.
The specific number, after the annual meeting, there will naturally be media to help him estimate.
