Early March.
"Is the chairman interested in establishing a joint venture wafer company?"
Sun Jian, accompanied by Zhou Yijie and Ida Yuexiu, inspected Jiangcheng Kundong Technology Company.
Jiangcheng Kundong Technology Company sold 7,535 sets of Toshiba brand POS cash register systems at home and abroad in 1990, with sales revenue of more than 164 million yuan and net profit of more than 47 million yuan. The profit per share was one dollar and one dime and seven cents.
The total share capital of Jiangcheng Kundong Technology Company is 40 million shares, with Kunpeng Software Company accounting for 51% and Toshiba Electronics Company accounting for 49%.
According to the regulations of joint-stock companies, 10% of the statutory reserve fund of 4.4 million yuan, 5% of the public welfare fund of 2.2 million yuan, and 5% of the discretionary surplus reserve fund of 2.2 million yuan are withdrawn, which can be used for dividend distribution by all shareholders. The profit was more than 38.2 million yuan. After a meeting of the board of directors, it was decided to distribute six cents of dividends, totaling 24 million yuan. The remaining profit of more than 14 million yuan was transferred to the capital reserve fund.
Everyone is happy!
"Mr. Ida, tell me about your company's plans?"
In 1988, eleven semiconductor manufacturers including NEC, Toshiba, Hitachi, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Matsushita (Panasonic), (Panasonic), Sanyo, Sharp, Sony, and OKI occupied the top twenty in the world. NEC, Toshiba and Hitachi's sales rank among the top three in the world.
In the 1980s, Japan relied on its strong economic strength to develop the electronics industry, shaping many well-known electronics brands in the PC and consumer electronics fields (especially consumer electronics) and becoming popular around the world. These major IDM manufacturers hope to manufacture all products themselves as much as possible. They also pursue perfection in manufacturing electronic components, which has also contributed to the global dominance of Japanese semiconductor components.
In 1985, the output value and market share of Japan's semiconductors surpassed that of the United States for the first time, becoming the world's largest semiconductor industry. Since being forced to sign the Plaza Accord, Japan's semiconductor industry has been dismembered by the United States, semiconductor design has been controlled by the United States, and the semiconductor manufacturing industry has moved toward South Korea. and Treasure Island area transfer.
Japanese lithography machine companies such as Nikon, Canon and Hitachi still account for 60% of the world's mid-to-high-end lithography machine market.
The semiconductor production line with five-inch wafers and 2um process technology introduced by Shanghai Philips Semiconductor Company began production last year.
Under the continued pressure from the United States, and after the Japanese stock market and property market plummeted in 1990, Japan's eleven semiconductor manufacturing companies suffered heavy losses, and their assets shrank by half from their peak. Now they are shrinking their front lines, eliminating backward production capacity, and moving to the treasure island area and Industry transfer to the mainland.
In October last year, the US-based Hughes Electronic Materials Company (MEMC) took the lead in successfully developing eight-inch wafers. The world's first eight-inch wafer and 500nm process technology semiconductor production line has now been established at INTER.
It is said that INTER invested US$2.5 billion.
The 350nm process lithography machine is exclusively produced by Nikon Semiconductor Equipment Company. IBM, II, AMD and HP wafer factories have made reservations one after another. The product supply exceeds demand and monopolizes the global high-end market share of lithography machines.
Semiconductor production lines with eight-inch wafers and 500nm process technology are on the technology export restriction list of the Pakistan T Agreement, and cannot be purchased in China even if they have money.
The mainland is the first choice for sales of five-inch wafers, six-inch wafers and 2um, 1.5um and 1um process technology semiconductor production lines produced by Japanese semiconductor manufacturers.
Sun Jian was overjoyed. The GZ-C1000, which had obtained the company's invention patent, was now entrusted to Shanghai Philips Semiconductor Company for production. However, once Chen Yongqing's team successfully developed the GZ-C2000, which is equivalent to 80386, Shanghai Philips Semiconductor Company would not be able to produce GZ -In order to meet the needs of C2000, there is an urgent need to introduce a semiconductor production line with six-inch wafers and 1um process technology. I am planning to find an opportunity to consult with Taro Nakamura about the price of purchasing a production line from Toshiba Semiconductor Equipment Company?
In July 1990, tariffs were significantly reduced and the domestic computer market was opened. Domestic computer companies that had stocked up on large quantities of computer components suffered heavy losses.
By the time eight-inch wafers and semiconductor production lines with 500nm process technology are sold to the mainland, fabs in the United States, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan have already been equipped with semiconductor production lines with eight-inch wafers and 350nm or 250nm process technology.
The mainland cannot buy the world's most advanced semiconductor production lines even with money!
Although today, the chips required for Sugon pagers, digital program-controlled switches and mobile phones can be entrusted to Huajing Company, Shanghai Belling Company and Shanghai Philips Semiconductor Company for production, which can also save costs, but GZ-C2000 and communication Chips are being updated with each passing day, and demand is increasing dramatically, which is not a long-term solution.
In August 1990, the "908 Project" plan was released, with the goal of investing 2 billion yuan during the "Eighth Five-Year Plan" period to bring the domestic chip manufacturing technology to 1um.
The "908 Project" has a total investment of 2 billion yuan, of which 1.5 billion yuan is used in Huajing Company to introduce a six-inch wafer and 1um process technology semiconductor production line, and 500 million yuan is invested in nine domestic integrated circuit companies to establish design center.
Huhai Belling Company is a Sino-foreign joint venture established to provide program-controlled switch application-specific integrated circuits for Shanghai Bell Telephone Equipment Company. In 1988, it invested a total of more than 82 million US dollars to build the first domestic four-inch wafer and 2um process equipment. Process semiconductor production line.
When he recruited Li Guoliang and Chen Zhimin, Sun Jian promised that when he established Guozhi Communication Semiconductor Company in the future, he would give 5% of the shares to the management and employees according to their contribution. Four years later, Shanghai Guozhi Communication Semiconductor The institute has used Peng EDA1.0 to successfully develop the voice chip GZ-6060, the motherboard GZ-5050 and the power control chip GZ-7070. It has also successfully developed the Guozhi scanner. It is now using Peng EDA2.0 on the IBM486 and is developing the second Generation of digital mobile phone CPU, GZ-C0001, but Guozhi Communication Semiconductor Company has no shadow yet.
It was too idealistic at first.
"Mr. Sun, the domestic semiconductor market has broad prospects. Toshiba Semiconductor Equipment Company plans to jointly invest US$250 million with Shanghai Shuguang Communication Technology Company to introduce a semiconductor production line with six-inch wafers and 1um process technology produced by Toshiba Semiconductor Equipment Company. , established Sugon Toshiba Wafer Company in Shanghai or Donghu High-tech Park. Toshiba invested US$100 million and 1um process technology, accounting for 49% of the shares. Shanghai Shuguang Communication Technology Company invested US$150 million. Buy shares, accounting for 51% of the shares.”
"Mr. Ida should know about the "908 Project". The country planned to invest 1.5 billion yuan in Huajing Company last August to purchase a semiconductor production line with six-inch wafers and 1um process technology. Will Sugon Toshiba Wafer Company already behind?"
Sun Jian told Ida Yuexiu that Huajing Company invested 1.5 billion yuan last year to purchase a semiconductor production line with six-inch wafers and one-micron process technology. Toshiba Semiconductor Equipment Company's offer of 250 million US dollars was too expensive.
Today's official price is 5.4 yuan per US dollar, and the black market price is as high as 8.4 yuan.
"Mr. Sun, the first semiconductor production line with three-inch wafers and 3um process technology introduced by Huajing Company in 1980 was produced by Toshiba Semiconductor Equipment Company. Today, the semiconductor production line with six-inch wafers and 1um process technology is introduced. It is still in the investment administrative approval stage. The two of us are investing now. Maybe Sugon Toshiba Wafer Co., Ltd. has been put into production. Huajing Company has not yet completed the investment administrative approval. Sugon Toshiba Wafer Co., Ltd. is the most advanced in the country, and Shanghai Shuguang Communication Technology Co., Ltd. The amount of capital contribution can still be discussed.”
