"Sure enough, one move can affect the whole body. Han Xing feels that he is the biggest winner by taking advantage. But no matter whether it is South Korea, Japan, TSMC, or even Europe and the United States, whichever side wins, American capital will be able to enjoy the gains in the end." Gu Qing put down his mobile phone. , full of emotion.

We are not afraid that the robbers have money, but we are afraid that the robbers have money and guns.

Fortunately, Daxia is not afraid of guns now. Although it is still weak in science and technology and culture, it can still provide domestic enterprises with stable development and farming.

The decision made by the ancestors of that generation was really far-sighted.

Only with a strong body can you have the confidence to speak, develop, and be qualified to have a future.

"To manufacture more robotic arms, the scale of the wafer factory needs to be expanded. Four hundred thousand wafers a month may not be enough." Gu Qing thought.

He also has many advantages in increasing production.

The high-precision and durable robotic arm is like a plug-in in terms of production.

The main wafer manufacturing plant has been built, and we are now stepping up dehumidification, decoration, and installing some anti-espionage equipment. After the Spring Festival, production equipment will be installed and trial production will begin.

The research building was also a busy scene at the moment.

Everyone has the Spring Festival holiday, but being able to study and discuss with like-minded friends every day is even happier than a holiday.

And, as students, they had enough.

The humane Boss Gu originally planned to take a vacation for himself and go home to relax for two days. Unfortunately, the wave of Korean stars came a bit fiercely, so he decided to sacrifice his vacation and increase production a little.

It's definitely not because the two elders in the family are urging the marriage.

"Without a woman in my heart, I draw my sword from the God of Nature, the sword, and the most important thing to stay away from is feelings."

While reciting the Heart Sutra silently, Boss Gu fell into unpaid overtime work.

The Spring Festival is a more important festival in China and other areas that worship Han culture than New Year's Day and Christmas Eve.

The publicity and participation of the media and the masses in the Spring Festival is often the highest at the beginning.

It just so happened that Jiuzhou Technology Company's acquisition of the German Zmelman Warehousing Company in Munich, Germany, has finally reached the final public announcement stage.

Boss Gu was in a good mood and sent a red envelope of 100,000 Xia Yuan in the internal [Boundary Monument] forum.

After receiving a bunch of blessings, the flavor of this Spring Festival gradually fades away.

When the boring life returns again, the shops and supermarkets in the streets and alleys are open, and the logistics and express delivery resumes.

Young people and children who were lucky enough to escape the "parents' bank deposit service" can finally start spending money and shopping.

But at this time, they finally discovered that the "surprise price to celebrate the New Year" had become a "shock price."

Affected by mining, the average price of game graphics cards has increased by more than 90%.

Affected by the increase in chip prices, storage strips, mobile phone storage, and general electronic products, as long as they require the installation of chips to process information, have all experienced price increases.

Manufacturing companies that resumed work early were faced with price increase notices from various suppliers as soon as they started work.

At this time, among all the price increase notices, Korean Star's announcement was frequently mentioned.

Consumers finally reacted.

They are stuck by Korean stars!

"Zhou Cao, I thought I could buy a graphics card with the New Year's money, but it turned out that the Huashuo 1080ti 11g was priced at 6399 in June, and now it has actually increased to 8799, an increase of 2000+. Are you trying to grab the money?"

"The one upstairs, due to mining and the Korean Star factory fire, if you don't buy it, I'm afraid it will cost 3,000+."

"This year, there is no speculation in graphics cards in the stock market. It is more popular to speculate in memory."

Ordinary netizens are complaining, but the majority are complaining, because among the hundreds of millions of netizens in Daxia, only a small part actually have a need for high-end graphics cards.

But it didn’t take long for this kind of complaint to spread, because many smart home devices on online platforms and offline stores also increased in price.

Some smart people think of Han Xing’s previous acquisition of GLOBALFOUNDRIES and the announcement before the Spring Festival, and they know in their hearts that this may not be a simple price increase, but more people don’t think about the problem with their brains, or they have nothing to do with it. Knowledge reserve, thinking is not sharp enough, and I can't think of anything.

"No problem, the equipment is being debugged. We will try to start trial production on February 27th and have the finished product on March 1st." Gu Qing hung up the phone on Yu Chengdong, but he didn't feel any uneasiness in his heart.

However, he also understood why Yu Chengdong was so concerned about this matter.

Xia Wei's current Kirin chip has become famous internationally due to the huge sales of the Mate10 series. However, although this chip was developed and designed by them, it is manufactured by TSMC.

In today's turbulent era, relying solely on a non-domestic foundry to manufacture chips is just putting your neck at the mercy of others.

They are naturally very concerned about the development of friendly businesses like Xia Xin Technology.

And it wasn't just Xia Wei who was anxious, even Gao Shan, who only sent blessings to everyone during the Spring Festival, also called early to ask for the latest situation.

Although this guy’s technology seems to be something, if it succeeds, the sooner it is put into production, the sooner Xiaxin Technology can start to expand the production line, and even allocate excess funds to find a way to build a lithography machine. .

In order to reaffirm the focus, Gu Qing contacted Professor Zhuang Youwei and "hired" several semiconductor tycoons among the professor's connections with "high salaries".

They are the kind of "experts" who have domestic qualifications and skills, but the skills are not high-end and the people are relatively down-to-earth.

Anyway, we must make the company's R&D team in the semiconductor-related industry look reliable. After the results are produced, everyone gets a share of the fruits. No matter how envious outsiders are, they can only be jealous of Jiuzhou Technology Company's luck. It just happened. Recruited capable people.

The precision machining workshops and inspection rooms are both constant-temperature workshops at 20 to 22°C.

Three-dimensional and other measurement equipment also have requirements for humidity. Parts can be cooled by media, mainly precision machining equipment that is very sensitive to temperature. The use of micron-level processing equipment is required in this kind of workshop.

When Gu Qing was installing and debugging equipment with the semiconductor team, he was thinking about what he had seen before. The protagonist always made some high-precision black technology instruments, and even hand-welded and hand-wrapped Gundams. Are their hands all super robotic arms?

Sure enough, those who can travel through time are not just ordinary people...

Afterwards, he closed the door of the production plant and spent day and night "happy working" time with a dozen men in the team.

After the "Happy Winter Vacation" homework and explanations during the winter vacation, everyone in the semiconductor team was so impressed with their boss that they even called him "teacher."

For chip manufacturing, it is well known that high-precision photolithography machines are needed, but little is known about the equipment required for wafer manufacturing.

For example, oxidation furnaces that oxidize semiconductor materials bind secondary electrons to specific areas on the target surface to achieve high particle density and high-energy ionization, and PVD equipment that sputters and deposits target atoms or madmen on the substrate at a high rate to form a thin film.

These devices are all...actually made by domestic manufacturers.
