Jing Gao kept negotiating at Magic City Microelectronics until around two o'clock in the afternoon. First we visited, had lunch and confirmed the cooperation, and signed the contract in the afternoon.
Modu Microelectronics is the top lithography machine manufacturer in China. They can manufacture 90nm lithography machines. Although there is still a generation gap between this top level and the international level (7nm).
Currently, Modu Microelectronics is organizing a team to develop 65nm lithography machine technology.
The cooperation between Phoenix Group and Modu Microelectronics is divided into two parts. First, Phoenix Group invested in the 65nm R&D team of Modu Microelectronics, investing US$500 million in advance.
The intellectual property rights belong to Modu Microelectronics. But Phoenix Group can obtain authorization to use these technologies. In addition, it will receive priority purchase rights for this batch of photolithography machines.
The two parties will cooperate closely in R&D and production and strive to achieve mass production operation of photolithography machines on chip manufacturing lines as soon as possible.
Second, Shanhaijing Semiconductor Company, a subsidiary of Phoenix Group, will build an excellent team under the guidance and cooperation of the Modu Microelectronics technical team to impact the next generation of 45nm lithography machine technology.
Both parties will share intellectual property rights.
Here we need to explain the generation difference of photolithography machines. If Modu Microelectronics can achieve 90nm, it will not be difficult to develop a 65nm lithography machine. The real generation difference is 45nm technology.
When we can manufacture 45nm lithography machines, it will not be difficult to develop 32nm technology. The next generation technical problem is 22nm.
Once you master the 22nm lithography machine manufacturing technology, it is not difficult to upgrade to 14nm.
To sum up, the real technical generation difference of lithography machines should be: 90nm, 45nm, 22nm, and 7nm.
Wu Tianyu, chairman of Modu Microelectronics, sent Jing Gao and his entourage to the door of the company building. Before shaking hands and saying goodbye, he was still chatting with Jing Gao about technical topics, "Mr. Jing, in fact, domestic chip demand will only increase if we can create 22nm optics." Engraving machines are enough. At this point, it will be impossible for the West to ban sales. They will be the ones who suffer. Our company's 02 project is a promise to the country and the people to manufacture 22nm lithography machines in 2020."
Jing Gao smiled, shook hands, and said, "It can definitely be done. In terms of photoresist, does Mr. Wu have any suggestions?"
"This is the strength of Japanese benzene companies. Mr. Jing can consider certain cooperation with them."
Jing Gao nodded thoughtfully and left in the car.
Wu Tianyu watched Jing Gao's motorcade leave, feeling a little surprised and speechless. He is the boss of a state-owned enterprise and a person of high rank. But in front of a boss like Jing Gao with a net worth of hundreds of billions, his confidence is still slightly insufficient.
You know, Jing Gao was always accompanied and entertained by city leaders during his several public itineraries in the Magic City.
He was also cautious today. There are rumors in Shengtan Beach that Mr. Jing of the Phoenix Group is young and energetic, and acts very domineeringly. If he disagrees with someone, he will resort to violent means. But today’s cooperation is quite gentle and drizzle!
In fact, both parties knew it well. Assuming that the Phoenix Group poached people with high salaries, who of the engineers from Modu Microelectronics could resist? (Note 1)
Phoenix Group’s investment of US$500 million was not only for intellectual property rights, but also to poach people from Modu Microelectronics in a gentle and orderly manner in the name of “technical guidance and exchange”.
"Mr. Jing is quite particular!"
…
…
After Jing Gao finished his trip at Magic City Microelectronics, he did not return to Tomson Golf Villa No. 11 to rest. Instead, head to the Peace Hotel. He made an appointment there for an interview in the afternoon. Post about Coolpad phones.
Jiang Zi went to Shencheng to check Pei Qingrong's problem, and it was basically true. She was sorting out the internal situation of the Coolpad mobile phone. The purchasing and sales departments there are basically rotten.
One soldier is raging, and the general is raging in a nest. His funds have gone in and the transformation of Coolpad has been effective. But if you want to build an efficient and combat-ready team, it's really hard to get there. More than half a year after its acquisition by Phoenix, Coolpad mobile phones are still classified as "other" by data companies such as IDG.
There is no doubt that Coolpad Mobile lacks a leader!
He had a dinner party with Mr. Wang of HNA in the evening, and he made an appointment through Wang Hanjun. Therefore, the afternoon interview was simply scheduled at the Peace Hotel.
The black stretched Lincoln drove smoothly through the streets of Shanghai, heading straight for the century-old Peace Hotel.
Jing Gao called the mature beauty Jiang Zi and asked about the situation at Coolpad. Sitting beside him was the loud-mouthed assistant Cheng Yu. He didn't talk about any intimate topics with Jiang Zi. After chatting about work, they cared about each other's lives. In fact, he missed the feeling of galloping her.
After hanging up the phone, Jing Gao pretended not to see Cheng Yu's secretly suppressed smile and said, "Cheng Yu, the chip factory in Jinling needs someone to keep an eye on it. Are you interested in going there? Don't worry, give me a reply. Give me a reply in two days. tell me."
This was agreed between him and Guan Guan. At Zhuque Integrated Circuit's factory in Jinling, the CEO position is given to Dr. Zhang Rujing, but a reliable person is needed in terms of finance and supervision. He was going to send Cheng Yu there.
Cheng Yu had previously discussed with Jing Gao that he wanted to be outspoken. At this time, he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Okay, Mr. Jing."
She could give her answer now. But answering too quickly can give people a sense of instability. Furthermore, just in case Mr. Jing thinks too much: What’s the matter, aren’t you happy working around me? Then she would have to cry to death.
Her future promotion within the Phoenix Group was labeled as: Mr. Jing's former assistant.
Idaka then ordered: "Inform the group to make plans to expand the scale of Japan's and South Korea's semiconductor research institutes this month, and increase research and development efforts in the direction of photoresist and lithium batteries. Those who can come to work in China will come as far as possible. I will work in China. Then, I will arrange my schedule and I will try my best to visit there at the end of April."
One thing to say is that Nippon Benzene’s semiconductor capabilities were still very strong. Later, it was suppressed by the United States. Now South Korea is also very strong in semiconductors because of the presence of chaebols such as Samsung and LG.
How can we not use the talents of these two countries?
He just talked with Wu Tianyu from Modu Microelectronics. South Korea is still very good in the research and development of lithium batteries. Idaka is interested in electric vehicles. For some industries, he is very restrained and does not want to enter. But he is still very interested in the obvious trend of electric vehicles.
"Okay. Mr. Jing."
Jing Gao and Cheng Yu chatted all the way to the Peace Hotel. As soon as he arrived in the presidential suite, he received a call from Cao Danqing, "Brother Jing, everything about Haiyi Group has been settled. We have taken most of its 12.5 billion US dollars in assets."
"good."
Jing Gao was also very happy. He answered the phone by the window of the suite on the 10th floor of the Peace Hotel, feeling really emotional.
From the perspective of Infinite Card, he does not need to be excited or happy about the success of any commercial mergers and acquisitions.
But that's not how things work out.
The problem with Phoenix Group is that it is “big but not strong”. Having unlimited money does not mean holding a powerful group in your hands! If the Phoenix Group continues its stammering and annexes Haiyi Group, it will not only gain assets, but also people, industries, licenses and other benefits.
This is walking on the road to becoming stronger.
His business path is actually not aimed at making money. Rather, the purpose is to make the enterprise bigger and stronger. And by making your business bigger and stronger, you will actually make money naturally!
So, what kind of status should he have in China's business world now?
Is it enough?
Does he still need to keep fighting?
The answer should be self-evident. With this condition, who doesn’t want to be the richest man? As an unlimited card tycoon, he does not seek to become "the richest man in the world." Instead, they pursue the status and influence of the richest man in society!
This is his pursuit that is different from other great heroes.
