"Does this mean that Daxia's chip foundry company can manufacture 28nm old chips?"
A rash reporter rushed to the stage and raised his microphone and asked.
Moreover, the content of the questions was very unprofessional and exposed his lack of industry knowledge.
However, Professor Zhao saw the reporter's blond hair and Daxia Mandarin speaking so fluently, so he still answered.
"At the beginning of this century, the chip manufacturing process was 130 nanometers. It was not until 2012 that the process technology developed to 22 nanometers. Then five years later, in 2017, the chip manufacturing process entered 10 nanometers. Until a few months ago, TSMC The 7nm process chip manufacturing has just been completed, so 28nm is not an old process, and the nanometer of the photolithography machine and the nanometer process of the chip are not equivalent.
Intel is at 10nm, GF is at 7nm, and this 28nm lithography machine can produce 7nm chips through multiple etching. "
The reporter was stunned for a few seconds, and then another male reporter took the opportunity to ask questions.
The black-haired reporter bowed "very politely" to Professor Zhao before asking in a slightly stiff Daxia Mandarin.
"Arnold, Professor Zhao.
Does your company's 28nm lithography machine adopt American technology or AS-ML's supplier technology and equipment? "
This question can be said to have scratched the itch of all the media present.
As we all know, the United States has now played a trump card and does not allow AS-ML to provide photolithography machines to Daxia in order to safeguard the interests of "everyone".
And he also said hello to the research and development company of photolithography machine-related technical equipment. (Don’t use words that are too formal to prevent blocking.)
So everyone present wanted to know how Daxia "created" the lithography machine.
Technology and equipment are not available for purchase. As for research and development? It’s only been a few years and you want to start research and development?
The blond reporter who had just shriveled was now looking at Professor Zhao on the press conference stage with gleaming eyes.
The recorder, microphone in her hand, and the cameraman behind her were all concentrating on preparing to record this historic moment.
Daxia's semiconductor companies cannot develop all the equipment and technologies for photolithography machines on their own. This is something that all the media present who have "done their homework" know.
So where did Pudong Microelectronics buy its technology and equipment?
The furry bear with whom he has the best connections has become a living dead since the shock treatment. He can only survive by selling old things and natural resources.
Are there any other major countries with whom we have good relations?
No!
Who dares to openly slap the face of a bald eagle? Currently, there are only Daxia and Mao Xiong.
Professor Zhao watched the reporter sit down and looked at the expectations in the eyes of other reporters around him.
Whether it is the expectation of good things or the ridicule of failure.
He looked serious and said: "The Wassena Agreement cannot break the backbone of our country.
The 28nm lithography machine is jointly built by our Daxia Semiconductor Company, and the light source equipment and systems are greatly assisted by Jiuzhou Technology Company and Xia Microelectronics.
The technology and equipment of Pudong Microelectronics' 28nm lithography machine are all made in China, and the excellence of its light source system makes it easy for us to conquer the 14nm lithography machine. "
Before he finished speaking, he caused an uproar.
"Jiuzhou Technology Company? Isn't that a company that sells smart home appliances?"
"NO!NO!NO! Jiuzhou Technology Company is a bionic mechanical prosthetic limb manufacturing company. My uncle is using their company's prosthetic limbs. He looks as healthy as ever and can even compete with me in a 100-meter race."
"You are only half right. Jiuzhou Technology Company's main business is mobile phone intelligent system optimization. My Pingguo 7 is becoming smoother and smoother the more I use it."
The reporters and other staff in the audience were whispering to each other, and Mr. Gu covered his mouth with his hands to prevent being recognized.
This old professor is really straight-up, and he will say whatever he wants.
According to the rules, the companies with the prefix Xia Guo should take the lead in making such speeches about merits, such as Xia Microelectronics Company, the biological son, and then Jiuzhou Technology Company.
Professor Zhao had too much contact with Jiuzhou Technology Company during this period, and Li You and others talked about how their company was doing from time to time, how heavy the daily research and development tasks were, how knowledgeable the experts within the company were, and the light source provided by Jiuzhou Technology Company. Equipment is indeed a top priority, that’s why I’m so outspoken.
But the old professor didn't know what he said, so he directly pushed Jiuzhou Technology Company to the front.
Wouldn't a smart home robot manufacturing company that doesn't optimize the system be a top manufacturer of semiconductor equipment?
Seeing Professor Zhao glance at him, Boss Gu quickly lowered his young and handsome head.
After so many years of research, Professor Zhao's eyesight was actually not very good, and Gu Qing asked Anhetang to remove his name from his seat before taking his seat.
So Professor Zhao just glanced at them, then said something else, and began to introduce the "outstanding contributions" of these friendly troops.
Listening to what these companies were doing, all the Daxia media people present held their heads high and their eyes were fiery.
It wasn't until the leaders finally came out to speak that they started writing the manuscript.
The foreign media people had different faces, some looked happy, and some looked sad.
Since there is no live broadcast, others in the outside world can only learn about the latest situation of domestic lithography machines through news from invited media at the press conference.
Therefore, after reading the press releases from their own media, the people of Daxia all exclaimed and even jumped for joy.
"Zhou Cao, never in my wildest dreams did I expect that it is actually a domestically produced photolithography machine!"
"Upstairs, you are not dreaming! I just gave you a living allowance, please call me Baba!"
"Grandpa, the national football team has not yet entered the top five, and the photolithography machines have come out. After Daxia's domestic 7-nanometer chips come out, I will burn them for you as soon as possible."
"It's a great filial piety, family members."
Some are funny, some are tongue-in-cheek, but just like a pot of soup, there is always a little bit of imperfection.
Li Zhongke and the "Truth" faction are also mixed in.
"Daxia's semiconductors are seriously faulty. I believe that Pudong Microelectronics' lithography machine is assembled by itself, but I don't believe that all the equipment and technology are domestically produced.
Don’t forget, everyone, how many cars, rice cookers, and air conditioners were claimed to be domestic products, but they all used other people’s technology and equipment. They just bought an industrial line.
This kind of purely domestic production is even an insult.
For the sake of credit, for fame, for making money, consuming everyone’s patriotism like this, haha, I guess this comment of mine will be deleted soon.
Alas, we are deceiving ourselves and others after all, are we going to win again?
Can't you just take it step by step and take it slow? "
