Chapter 758 Asking for a guaranteed monthly ticket, is it because God wants to destroy me, Zhang Zhongmou?
In the office of the chairman of Yiji Electronics, the atmosphere was extremely heavy and depressing.
Zhang Zhongmou and R&D Director Jiang Shangyi sat face to face on the sofa. There were two cups of cooled tea on the coffee table in front of them, but neither one was in the mood to drink it.
The ashtray on the coffee table was full of cigarette butts, and the two of them were still smoking in silence, neither of them wanting to talk.
Beside the wall in the corner of the office is a broken vase, and the cleaning staff is silently cleaning up the debris without even daring to speak out.
After gently cleaning up the debris, the cleaning staff carefully exited the office and gently closed the door.
As the door closed, the office fell into dead silence again.
Zhang Zhongmou and Jiang Shangyi still sat in silence. Only the occasional sound of a lighter lighting a cigarette broke the heavy silence.
Zhang Zhongmou's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the sofa, and every tap seemed to tap the pain in their hearts.
Jiang Shangyi took a deep breath of cigarette from time to time, and then slowly exhaled it. The smoke lingered in the air, seeming to be looking for some kind of outlet for release.
After a long time, Zhang Zhongmou finally spoke, "Shang Yi, the death of Lin Gong is not only the loss of a technical backbone for us, but also a serious blow."
His voice was low and hoarse, and every word seemed to be forced out from deep in his heart.
A trace of tears flashed in Jiang Shangyi's eyes. He took a long drag on the cigarette and then slowly exhaled, "What a pity."
What a pity, it's not just Lin Benjian.
There is also the development of Yiji Electronics over the past few decades.
Immersion lithography technology is a big gamble for EMC.
The bet is whether AS can overtake in corners and break Sakura’s monopoly in the field of lithography.
Yizi Electronics, which started developing the 130n copper process three years later than Abby but was the first to achieve a breakthrough, is actually not having an easy time at the moment.
Since the Internet bubble burst, the chip industry has been in a cold winter for more than two years. YMC’s counter-cyclical expansion has put them under heavy financial pressure.
Sakura Country’s two major plans for tomorrow and the future are not confidential documents, but two public industrial development plans.
Zhang Zhongmou knows very well that if Sakura’s dry technology wins in the lithography field this time, then Yisei Electronics will surely fall behind Sakura’s chip manufacturing companies in the next process war.
Because, there is no doubt that with the coordination of Sakura domestically, Nikon will definitely give priority to supplying new photolithography machines to local chip manufacturers in Sakura.
So, instead of taking advantage of the trend to prepare for the 90n process, YMC jumped directly to the 65n process preparations. He could only bet on the success of as company.
The death of Lin Benjian directly affected AS’s research and development of immersion lithography technology.Fa suffered a devastating blow.
Because, under his insistence, Lin Benjian always mastered the secret of the core craft during the cooperation between the two parties.
And now
"The death of Lin Gong, is it because God wants to kill Zhang Zhongmou and Yi Jidian?"
The conversation between the two was full of Missing Lin Benjian and confused about the future.
Both of them knew very well that Lin Benjian’s death was not only the passing of a life, but it might also be the end of the rise of Yiji Electronics.
The atmosphere in the office became heavier, and sadness filled the air, as if time had frozen.
Zhang Zhongmou and Jiang Shangyi just sat quietly, letting their sadness spread in their hearts, until the night outside the window gradually deepened.
Until the pain in their hearts gradually subsided, Zhang Zhongmou wiped the corners of his eyes, stood up slowly, and walked towards the window.
He looked out the window at the deep night, with a hint of determination in his voice, "Shang Yi, we cannot be defeated by the difficulties in front of us. Yiji Electronics has been able to get to where it is today because of our indomitable spirit
Although the death of Lin Gong has brought a huge blow to us, I believe that as long as we unite as one, we will be able to overcome the difficulties."
He turned around and asked, "Shang Yi, how will Lin Gong's death affect our cooperation with AS and He?"
Jiang Shangyi did not answer immediately after hearing this.
He took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it. The smoke lingered in the air, seeming to be looking for some kind of outlet for release.
He knew clearly that Zhang Zhongmou asked this question because he wanted to see if there was a possibility of regaining time.
Jiang Shangyi pondered for a moment, and then slowly opened his mouth. His voice was trembling, but he tried to stay calm,
"Dr. Zhang, the sudden death of Lin Gong, I am sorry for you. The impact of the company is far-reaching. He is not only the core of our technical team, but also the bridge between our cooperation projects with AS.
The briefcase he carries contains the immersion lithography cooperation between us and AS. The key technical data of the machine project. These data are the hard work of Lin Gong for many years and are also the key to the success of our project.
Now, there is a gap in these data, which is undoubtedly a problem for our research and development progress. A huge blow.
Those technical data are all the experimental data from this year, and only he has mastered them.
Now, the loss of these data will undoubtedly bring great harm to both of us. The progress of research and development has brought huge obstacles. If we want to recover, we need to start from scratch, which will take at least a year.”
He wanted to say that according to reliable intelligence, Nikon’s dry-type Lithography technology has actually made a revolutionary breakthrough. Now it only needs to be commercialized and perfected, and it will be launched on the market next fall at the latest.
Zhang Zhongmou frowned when he heard this, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes, "How did it get lost?"
Jiang Shangyi shook his head, "The forest workers' entourage said that the situation at the Pearl Harbor Airport was very chaotic at the time. When they discovered that something was wrong with the forest workers, they panicked.
When the patrol came to control the situation, because the deceased was still there With Professor Cheng Jin, no one dared to act rashly, and our people were also taken away for interrogation." Hearing this, Zhang Zhongmou sneered, "The people from Pearl Harbor will return after their return. What a bunch of slaves."
From the words "interrogation" used by Jiang Shangyi, he could infer the scene at that time.
Seeing that the father of Chinese chips died at the airport, the patrol officer was probably scared to death. Maybe the people who followed Lin Benjian would be treated as suspects immediately.
Jiang Shangyi smiled bitterly, but there was nothing he could do.
If you have different standpoints, you will naturally look at issues differently.
In their eyes, Lin Benjian was naturally a more important figure than Qi Cheng Jin.
But in the eyes of Chinese people, Cheng Jin is thousands of times more valuable than Lin Benjian.
It’s not like he doesn’t use the Internet. Nowadays, a large number of netizens in China even think that this is the work of people from Yiji Electronics.
A senior engineer from YMC, the father of Huaguo chips who sacrificed his life for his life
In this regard, Jiang Shangyi can only say that the country bumpkins in the mainland are too imaginative. .
In his opinion, Cheng Jin is nothing compared to Lin Benzian
Just a chip designer.
And Lin Benjian, who could come up with that weird idea, is the real international master.
He shook his head and continued, "When our people were released, the Huaguo Guoan people also handed back the forest workers' bags. It was just the information inside."
Jiang Shangyi spread his hands and said helplessly, "It's gone. They asked, and the Chinese said they didn't see it."
It's obvious where the information went.
He uttered angrily, "It's so shameless, I just robbed it."
When Zhang Zhongmou heard this, he breathed out unexpectedly.
There was a trace of relief on his face, "This may be the best situation at the moment."
Hearing this, Jiang Shangyi's eyes showed a look of surprise.
He didn’t understand why Zhang Zhongmou said that.
Obviously, this is not capitalizing on the enemy
Jiang Shangyi knows very well how eager the Chinese people are for semiconductors.
He even plans to go to China when he retires and use their mentality to make big money.
It’s so easy to fool.
The wafer fab that EMC is building in Ye has not only not spent a penny, but also received a lot of subsidies. Moreover, if it makes people unhappy, it does not need to sell the chips to Chinese companies.
Television dramas can’t write such a cool thing.
Zhang Zhongmou handed him a cigarette and said easily, "Shang Yi, you have to know Lin Gong's plan.Although important, it is just a technical improvement plan.
If these materials fall into the hands of other countries, such as Korea, Lion City, and Tulip, they can get started immediately and build the immersion lithography machine before AS.
But Huaguo"
Zhang Zhongmou laughed loudly, "Huaguo, even if they obtained these materials, we even gave them a complete set of drawings, with their technical strength Even if they can finally understand the technology, improve the manufacturing industry, and build a photolithography machine after a few years or even more than ten years, they have already missed the best opportunity. At this time, the threat to us is not great. "
Speaking of this, a sharp light flashed in Zhang Zhongmou's eyes, "Shang Yi, do you know what I am most afraid of is actually that the information was obtained by America and passed on to AS.
In that case, the situation would be completely different. If they get the technology, they will immediately burn the bridge and kick us out
This is why I always insisted that Lin Gong must preserve the core technology when cooperating with AS. ”
Jiang Shangyi thought about it again and again, and showed a smile of understanding.
That is indeed the case.
If as was created without Yi Semiconductor’s technology For immersion lithography machines, the first one to be supplied will definitely not be EMC.
Abby, Intel, and BD all have their own chip manufacturing plants, and Tulip will definitely give priority to supplying them. Three families.
Zhang Zhongmou stood up, walked to the window, looked at the night scene outside the window, and said in a low voice, "We must recover from this blow as soon as possible.
Shang Yi, set up a special department to reorganize the existing technical information. We need to compete with Nikon for time.
I, Zhang Zhongmou, don’t believe in fate, I believe that man can defeat nature.”
The corners of Jiang Shangyi’s mouth raised slightly, “I’m just risking my life. ”
It entered the research and development of 130n three years behind Aibi Aimu, but completed it one year ahead of schedule. Yiji Electronics relied on united efforts.
Zhang Zhongmou nodded, "Thanks a lot. "
Then he smiled and said, "It seems that your retirement time will be late again. ”
In fact, Jiang Shangyi wanted to retire in 1999, but after his persuasion, Jiang Shangyi stayed on, and even took the lead in attacking difficulties as the chief engineer of 130n.
Now it seems , We have to attack again.
Hearing this, Jiang Shangyi shrugged his shoulders as if he was resigned to his fate, "It's just another three years, a small matter, I also feel now that it seems quite scary to retire and have nothing to do. ”
Moreover, what else can be said in this situation
I can only be wise, otherwise I will not get the options redeemed when I retire.
Fortunately, Zhang Zhongmou He is a very generous person.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shangyi decided that no matter what, he must retire before Zhang Zhongmou.
From the current point of view, Zhang Zhongmou is likely to do so.He helped Cai Lixing, who he had trained by himself, to take the position.
Cai Lixing is top-notch both in terms of ability and strategic undertakings.
There is only one thing that Jiang Shangyi is not optimistic about.
That’s just too stingy.
It’s not that he is stingy with himself, but that he is stingy with his employees.
It is true that the performance appraisal and cost optimization measures that Cai Lixing implemented in his current one-third-acre of land have eliminated some wasteful behaviors in the company and also laid off a certain number of redundant employees.
But scientific research enterprises
Jiang Shangyi said that since the stealing of scholars is not called stealing, but theft, then the leisure of scientific researchers is naturally not called leisure, but is called in-depth thinking.
Management that is too utilitarian will ultimately fail to produce results.
Of course, the most important thing is that Jiang Shangyi does not think that an old minister like him can get an advantage from a new king like Cai Lixing.
As an emperor and a minister, it is better to retire early.
Zhang Zhongmou, who did not know that Jiang Shangyi had deserted, did not offer him any courtesy at this time.
After pondering for a moment, he said slowly, "Having said that, Shangyi, now we can no longer put our eggs in the same basket.
We also There is no way to tell whether AS will leave us alone. After all, they have been in contact with forest workers for a long time, and they should have some reserves.
Compared to the fact that we need to explore again, In terms of progress, they are faster.
So, we need to be prepared with two hands, one for immersion and one for dry.
That is to say, the 65n and 90n processes are required. Let's prepare together."
As soon as Jiang Shangyi heard about the business, he immediately returned to work, pondered for a while, and immediately asked a question.
"Chairman, if we start preparations for two processes at the same time, the company's cash flow may not be able to keep up."
He believes that this time it is estimated that YMC's capital will be lost. Dig clean.
Zhang Zhongmou smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Money is definitely not enough. So I'm afraid I will mainly focus on financing."
The preparation of a manufacturing process starts from Starting from pre-research, it usually costs more than one billion US dollars, and as the process technology continues to iterate, this cost is still rising.
Fortunately, this time it is a callback of 65n to 90n, and the fee required is at least less than that of 65n.
At this point, he patted Jiang Shangyi on the shoulder, "Shangyi, financing these matters is my responsibility. I will solve them, and the research and development will be left to you."
Jiang Shangyi did not agree immediately, but fell silent, smoking a cigarette with his head buried.
