Chapter 563 Technology is King, No Compromise

Jiang Zhou did not expect that Chen Xiao would be so hard-hearted, that he would not compromise at all.

Jiang Zhou also recognized the seriousness of the matter.

As Chen Xiao said, countless compromises may not get the results he wants.

On the contrary, the president will increase the popularity of others and destroy his own prestige.

What should I do if the TSMC lion opens its mouth?

And based on Jiang Zhou's understanding of TSMC.

TSMC, such a shameless enterprise, may really do things that seriously damage the interests of Changtian Technology.

Jiangzhou was ready to contact Zhang Jing immediately to convey Chen Xiao's intentions to Zhang Jing.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jing is negotiating with Zhang Zhong on Wanwan Island...

And the negotiations have come to a critical moment.

Chen Xiao's judgment was correct.

TSMC really is a big opening for a lion.

He gave Zhang Jing a choice.

Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor will pay TiSMC 125 million meters and 175 million meters respectively as the cost of the out-of-court settlement.

This resolves so-called patent and trade secret lawsuits.

In addition, TSMC will claim related profits from Pangu chips.

TSMC's behavior was even more disgusting than Chen Xiao expected.

Chen Xiao predicts that no matter how TSMC intends, it is impossible to directly ask for cash, but to take a cut of each chip.

But TSMC did not do so, and he asked Yanjiang Semiconductor to pay him 200 million meters in cash in installments over the next five years.

And Xiaxin International is required to pay 100 million meters in cash in installments over the next five years.

At the same time, TSMC will ask for 10% of Xiaxin International and 15% of Yanjiang Semiconductor.

Seeing such a reconciliation proposal, Zhang Jing trembled with anger.

However, he still maintained his calmness on the surface, and did not immediately get angry with Zhang Zhong.

The settlement amount of hundreds of millions of meters, as well as 10% and 15% of the shares, as well as compensation paid in installments.

In this way, TiSMC has requested a total of no less than 1 billion meters from Yanjiang Semiconductor Company and Xiaxin International.

This is a very scary sum.

You must know that when Changtian Technology chose to cooperate with Softbank in order to open up foreign markets to obtain chips from Intel, it only received an investment of 20 million meters from Softbank.

Zhang Jing felt that if he signed such an agreement, he would be the contemporary Li Hongzhang, and he would have completely sold Changtian Technology.

So Zhang Jing has been looking at the content of the agreement, but has not made a statement, let alone signed it.

Zhang Zhong has been observing Zhang Jing's performance, and he said jokingly: "As long as Mr. Zhang signs the agreement, then we are still a family."

Zhang Jing is the dual CEO of Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor, as well as the legal representative.

So he has the right to sign.

Zhang Zhong added: "I still feel very regretful when you left TSMC, Mr. Zhang."

"But life is so wonderful, after you've gone around in a circle, you're still back!"

"I believe that as long as we reach a cooperation between the two sides, then the entire global semiconductor production market will definitely have our place!"

Zhang Zhong's calculation is very shrewd, and the conditions are stuck.

Seeing that Zhang Jing was slow to write, he continued to add fuel to the fire.

"In less than half a month, there will be a court session in the United States."

"Do you think your odds are good?"

"If you are sentenced to lose the case, whether it is Xiaxin International or Yanjiang Semiconductor, the losses you will get will far exceed this number!"

While drinking tea, Zhang Zhong said, "I know that you have a lot of orders for Pangu chips, not only from Shenchuan, but also from Asus, Dell and other companies."

"According to industry rules, liquidated damages are attached to the contract of each order."

"In this way, you think you can bear the corresponding losses."

Zhang Jing also knew that he was now at an absolute disadvantage.

Zhang Zhong pointed to the stack of documents beside him again, "This is the process flow used by Xiaxin International's 180-nanometer and 130-nanometer chip production lines, the latest evidence of infringement, I can say with certainty that Xiaxin International is producing new products at 130 nanometers. 90% of the technological process used comes from TSMC!"

"Mr. Zhang, do we really want to go to court?"

Zhang Jing took a deep breath, and the explorer said, "Is there any room for negotiation on the settlement amount and equity? I can accept 10% of Xiaxin International's equity!"

"But TiSMC wants to own 15% of Yanjiang Semiconductor, which is very difficult for Changtian Technology to accept. Although I am the CEO of Yanjiang Semiconductor, I am not alone in this company."

Zhang Zhong has already seen that the other party intends to settle down and choose to compromise.

Therefore, Zhang Zhong said: "This is your problem. Anyway, there will be less than half a month from now until the trial."

"But this piece of evidence in my hands will soon be submitted to the U.S. court."

Zhang Jing took a deep breath.

It really doesn't make sense.

Indeed, what Zhang Zhong said was absolutely correct.

About 90% of the core manufacturing technology of chips is the same as TSMC.

Can be completely identified as technology theft or plagiarism.

But this is not the technology that Zhang Jing took from TSMC, but that Shida Semiconductor, which was founded by Zhang Jing, was acquired by TSMC.

Such technology is also owned by TiSMC.

Humiliation, Zhang Jing felt extremely humiliated.

It's like the ancient times when crime was written on the face and sent to remote areas.

Zhang Jing said: "I can sign this part of Xiaxin International, of course it is Yanjiang Semiconductor Company, I can't sign it, I have to go back and get their consent first."

Zhang Zhong spread his hands and said, "No problem at all! I welcome you at any time!"

Zhang Zhong personally has a plan. As long as Xiaxin International signs this part, then the containment of Yanjiang Semiconductor is also a sure thing.

Just at this time.

Zhang Jing's cell phone rang.

Because it was at a critical moment in the negotiation, Zhang Jing did not intend to accept it.

He hung up the phone.

But within two seconds, the phone rang again.

Zhang Jing had no choice but to apologize to Zhang Zhong and walked out of the conference room with the phone.

It was Jiang Zhou who called.

Jiang Zhou said eagerly and seriously on the phone:

"Don't do stupid things! You absolutely cannot do things that are settled out of court!"

"I'm in Jiangzhou with President Chen now."

"Mr. Chen's intention is very clear, to fight to the end without compromise!"

Zhang Jing was still very excited and excited when he heard Jiang Zhou say this.

But emotions are emotions, and facts are facts.

The fact is that Xiaxin International and Magma Semiconductor are currently producing Pangu chips, and the core part is indeed 90% identical to TSMC.

Zhang Jing was about to inform Jiang Zhoushi of his concerns.

Jiang Zhou said clearly: "Mr. Zhang, you must fully trust Chen Xiao! Changtian Technology must have the ability and technology to surpass TSMC in a comprehensive manner!"

"This war will be fought sooner or later! We can't just compromise!"

"I don't know what conditions you are talking about, but I believe that TSMC will speak loudly. The conditions he offered are not for the peaceful coexistence of our companies and for real cooperation."

"Their purpose is to hope that Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International will die!"

The last sentence touched Zhang Jing very much.

He now thinks about it carefully. From the current point of view, the conditions offered by TiSMC are beneficial to Xiaxin International.

At least the disputes between the two parties can be resolved, and Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor can successfully produce and complete orders.

But in the long run.

This time after the two sides reached an agreement.

TSMC is like driving a nail into the interior of the two companies.

He can completely control the production progress and even the market share of the two companies according to his own interests.

Then Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor will be the same as Bida Semiconductor, called TSMC's subsidiary.

This will seriously restrict the development of the two companies.

Zhang Jing set up to predict that TSMC could even interfere with the production of Pangu chips one day in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jing's cold sweat broke down.

This out-of-court settlement agreement cannot be signed.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jing had already made a decision.

Since the war between the two sides will break out sooner or later.

So sooner rather than later.

After Zhang Jing walked into the conference room, Zhang Zhong still looked at him with a smile.

Because in Zhang Zhong's heart, this agreement must have been signed, and there is no room for compromise.

Who knows that Zhang Jing seems to have suddenly changed to a different person.

Zhang Jing said to Zhang Zhong, "Mr. Zhang, see you in court!"

After dropping this sentence, Zhang Jing walked out of TiSMC's headquarters.

Leaving the crowd looking at each other.

Zhang Zhong also didn't understand why Zhang Jing suddenly changed his mind?

Is he really not afraid of the judgment on the US side?

Zhang Zhong suddenly became angry and manic.

He patted the table and immediately said: "Now take it out and send this evidence to the courts in New York and California in the United States!"

Zhang Zhong knew that Fang Fang's chance of mediation in court had dropped to 0.

The only way is to take the legal route.

After leaving TiSMC's headquarters, Zhang Jing's mood instantly relaxed.

He spent two days visiting his relatives in the Wanwan area before returning to the Shanghai market.

Zhang Jing knew that the next few months would be an uphill battle.

as predicted.

Just when Zhang Jing left Bay Island, TiSMC once again submitted new information and new evidence to the U.S. District Courts of New York and California.

These evidences are more able to prove that 90% of the Pangu chips produced by Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International are similar to TSMC.

After these materials were submitted, Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International were almost sentenced to death.

The atmosphere across the industry has grown tense.

TSMC has also joined forces with Intel to create public opinion on a global scale.

The public opinion made Yanjiang Peninsula Jie Company and Xiaxin International convince the so-called crime of stealing technology.

The team led by Zhang Jing went to the United States and went to court with TiSMC.

in the lawsuit.

The conditions offered by TSMC are even more abhorrent than the settlement between the two courts.

He asked Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor to compensate TSMC for technical losses of 1 billion meters.

At the same time, Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor are required to permanently stop using this technology to produce 130-nanometer and 180-nanometer chips.

It also asked Zhang Jing's team to immediately resign from Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor, and not be able to enter the semiconductor industry within 10 years.

This condition is basically to make Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor die immediately.

Zhang Jing and his team actively responded to the lawsuit and also submitted relevant materials to the U.S. District Court.

But people in the industry know it.

The chance of Zhang Jing's comeback is really too small.

Moreover, the entire international computer and semiconductor industry is discussing this matter, and they are very puzzled as to why the two sides clearly had the opportunity to settle in court, but did not do it.

Zhang Jing still has many friends in the United States.

Friends asked.

"Why not choose to stop and reconcile?"

"I read the Wall Street Journal report, and the conditions offered by TSMC are still barely acceptable."

"Brother Zhang Jing, I heard about it! Your side has absolutely no chance of winning! Such a hasty medical technique, isn't this an active surrender?"

Faced with inquiries and concerns from friends and relatives.

Zhang Jing's heart was very firm and calm.

Internationally, similar to companies such as Samsung, this is watching the excitement.

Anyway, it's all a feud between Xiaguo technology companies, and everyone is happy to see it succeed.

Whether it is the death of Yanjiang Semiconductor Company or the loss of TSMC's technical patent.

This is good for companies like Samsung.

And companies such as Dell are watching.

Because if Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor lose the lawsuit, the Pangu chips purchased by Dell will definitely be affected.

Lianxiang, which failed miserably in the field of centralized procurement, seized the last straw.

Lianxiang was very excited.

I desperately hope that Yanjiang Semiconductor can be locked up~www.mtlnovel.com~ Because only if Yanjiang Semiconductor loses, can Pangu chips stop producing and selling.

The advantages of the Shenchuan Jiaolong series will be gone.

This world is still the world of Lianxiang.

November 2005.

That is, when Pangu chips are in full swing, when the related products are distributed in large quantities.

The joint judgments of the U.S. District Courts of California and New York came out at the same time.

There are no surprises.

There are no miracles either.

Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Peninsula Sports Company lost the lawsuit.

The court fully supports all the claims in the TSMC indictment.

The court determined that Zhang Jing's team had indeed stolen the intellectual property rights of TiSMC before coming to Xiaguo to start a business, and brought the technology to Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor.

When the verdict came out, the entire industry was shocked.

Because the amount of compensation requested by TSMC is also the highest in history in the industry.

It also asked Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor to stop using the technology to produce chips.

Xia Guo's semiconductor industry suddenly turned gloomy.

Xia Guo Academy of Sciences and other scientific research institutions have called Chen Xiao to inquire about the relevant situation and expressed concern about this.

The public and netizens were even more angry.

Everyone is suspicious and puzzled as to why the U.S. district court can control technology companies involved in Xia.

TSMC is jubilant.

This victory is bound to establish TSMC's leading position in the semiconductor industry.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao was very calm.

It's still coming.

Chen Xiao immediately made two reactions.

The first one, let Zhang Jing continue to appeal.

Second, let Wang Xiang go to the Netherlands in Europe with relevant materials

Zhang Jing was still in New York at this time.

Although Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International did not provide very good evidence to the court in the production of cores.

However, Zhang Jing still followed Chen Xiao's instructions and re-appealed.

According to the judicial process in the United States, if the defendant files an appeal, the court still has to accept it in accordance with the procedures.

In the eyes of the outside world, Zhang Jing's appeal is futile.

It has no effect other than being able to delay time.

But the relevant verdict is already settled, no matter how much Zhang Jing delays, the knife will end sooner or later.

The global semiconductor industry chain also began to adjust the relevant layout after this judgment in the United States. .

The first is that companies such as Dell and Hewlett-Packard try to contact Changtian Technology to see if they can return the pre-ordered chips.

If the judgment here takes effect.

Then my probability of mass production of Pangu chips must be 0.

Assuming that Changtian Technology has met the few orders from Dell or HP, what about the follow-up?

It is impossible for Dell to make a series for such ten or twenty thousand computers, right?

And after the computer is sold, it also faces a series of after-sales problems.

If Pangu chips cannot be produced, then accessories such as motherboards have no value.

There will certainly not be a factory vacating the production line specifically for the production of discontinued motherboards.

So at this time, stop loss is the wisest choice.

Companies such as Dell and Asus are okay, but they only applied for the return of the chip, and they are willing to give Changtian Technology a certain amount of compensation according to the agreement of the contract.

However, some PC companies are quite disgusting, and they directly and unilaterally tore up the agreement and do not even pay liquidated damages.

The phones of Changtian Technology Headquarters have been blasted.

All the calls were to cancel the orders for Pangu chips.

It's not just these PC companies who want to be concerned about the news of the US court decision.

Xia Guo Academy of Sciences and relevant state departments are also very concerned about this matter.

And take the initiative to contact Changtian Technology to see if it can provide some judicial assistance.

Very funny to say.

Whether it is the mainland area of ​​Xia Guo or the Wanwan area of ​​Xia Guo, it is the company of Xia Guo.

The intellectual property dispute between the two Xiaguo companies needs to be adjudicated by a U.S. court.

This is the hegemony of the United States, and the total monopoly.

Because the core part of the entire chip industry chain is in the United States.

From chip design, equipment design to equipment production, as well as the sale of chip raw materials, the procurement of chips themselves and the formulation of technical standards, almost all key links are in the United States.

Because the standard is in the hands of the Americans, the right to speak is also in the hands of the Americans.

If the chip industry in the United States says that your chip does not meet the standards, then almost all major PC companies in the world dare not purchase your chip, and the chip production equipment of other companies in the world may not be sold to you.

This is the most typical long-arm jurisdiction and intellectual hegemony.

Lianxiang was really laughing like crazy during this time.

Although Yang Qing has not made any statement to the outside world, he has also seen the news that Pangu chips have been canceled in large numbers.

Analysts from Lianxiang's marketing department immediately analyzed the relevant situation.

Their analysis found that Shenchuan's PCs depended heavily on Pangu chips.

Especially in the high-end PC field, almost the only chip that can be used is the Pangu chip.

If the production of Pangu chips is seriously affected, the products cannot be mass-produced and rolled off the assembly line normally.

Then the output of the Jiaolong series of Shenchuan must not be able to keep up.

If the production of Jiaolong cannot keep up with the sales volume, there will definitely be a sharp decline.

Shenchuan, the second-ranked PC manufacturer in the country, is likely to continue to decline to a third-rate manufacturer within a month.

Lianxiang also felt that this must be his chance.

Prior to this, Lianxiang had suspended or reduced its purchase plan for all of its chips.

The reason for this is to entangle whether to use Pangu chips.

Now Lianxiang does not have to worry about it.

Pangu chips are about to become history and disappear from this market.

Yang Qing even joked to his assistant: "You can find a way to buy a Shenzhou Jiaolong series as a collection, because soon the PCs of this series will disappear from the store shelves."

Lianxiang immediately purchased a large number of high-end chips from Intel and AMD.

Prepare for distribution in early 2005.

This time the number of purchases is the largest ever.

After all, in 2005, not only the Lianxiang brand but also the IBM brand needed to be distributed globally.

Lianxiang's ambitions are not small. He hopes to take advantage of this crisis that Changtian Technology has suffered to knock down the Shenchuan in one fell swoop, so that the Shenchuan will no longer be able to compete with Lianxiang.

The only one who can hold back is Shenchuan, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology.

Shenchuan also had to keep his composure, because he did not have any resources other than the backer of Changtian Technology.

Consumers in the market are also caught in a tangle.

Emotionally speaking, they are willing to buy the computer of the **** ship.

Because Shenchuan's computer is cost-effective, and its performance is quite good.

But intellectually speaking, they had to remove the Shenchuan computer from their purchase list.

Because after purchasing the Shenchuan computer, if Pangu chips and corresponding accessories, the production will be stopped due to the legal judgment of the United States.

What should I do if the computer encounters any after-sales problems in the future?

Song Yi sorted out what happened during this time and the information collected and reported it to Chen Xiao.

The main purpose is to seek Chen Xiao's opinion.

After all, in the face of this big PC company's request for return and refund, Changtian Technology still has some difficulties.

Song Yi is Chen Xiao's most caring person.

She doesn't know what the idea of ​​the zodiac is now, and she doesn't know what the next step of Changtian Technology is.

But Song Yi did feel a crisis, an unprecedented crisis.

After seeing the chargeback request from Dell and other companies, Chen Xiao calmly said to Song Yi, "According to the contract."

It is clear what the contract means.

That is, Changtian Technology, which is willing to return and refund, has no opinion, you just need to pay the liquidated damages.

You want to return the money for a refund, and you don't want to pay the liquidated damages, then it's really embarrassing, there is no such book to sell.

Song Yi was in a hurry, but she was not in a hurry when she saw Chen Xiao.

Not much, so I hurried down to do the work arranged by the boss.

After all, so many companies want to return and refund, and Changtian Technology is busy.

In addition, Song Yi also undertakes the work of press speech.

There are many reporters and people in related industries looking for the relevant situation of Wanchangtian Technology by phone or in writing.

Song Yi also organizes press releases.

Gu YiAt this time, the Wanwan area.

The top executives of TiSMC such as Zhang Zhong have held a celebration banquet in the holding hotel of TiSMC.

After all, the first-instance judgment of the US court has come down.

The first-instance verdict completely agreed with all the claims of TSMC.

This laid the legal foundation for the status of TSMC as the king of semiconductors.

Zhang Zhong is actually a very smart person.

He knew what he should and should not do.

He thinks that TSMC should be a pure processing enterprise, so that the enterprise can become a support for the US chip company and serve the US chip company.

Only in this way can you live your own life peacefully and peacefully.

Zhang Zhong is also very clear that TSMC is only suitable for the dirty work of processing chips, and is not suitable for chip design and sales.

As long as TSMC has a little thought to design chips, it is completely satisfied in terms of technical strength.

But Zhang Zhong also knew that if TSMC really did this, then TSMC's fate might be much worse than that of Xiaxin International.

Technology giants such as the United States absolutely do not allow any semiconductor company outside the United States to compete with themselves in technology.

Many high-level executives of TSMC said excitedly:

"The indemnity from Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International allows us to expand our production line, and there is still a lot left!"

"We can completely put the factory in the mainland area of ​​Xiaguo, and going there is just picking up money for nothing!"

"Isn't it true, there are absolute preferential policies, three-year tax exemption and five-year preferential tax, and free land. Take Suzhou and Hangzhou as an example. He built the factory directly, and we can just move the equipment there!"

"If you feel unhappy or the prices in other cities are better, let's withdraw the equipment and move it away!"

"We have shares in Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International, and we can use these two manufacturers as our subsidiary factories!"

Zhang Zhong listened to the high-level officials babbling about his future hegemonic world. He smiled. Although he didn't say anything, he was very proud in his heart.

Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor are a big piece of fat.

It's not that these two companies are big, but that these two companies are facing the Xiaguo market.

How big is the Xiaguo market?

The potential is immeasurable!

After eating these two big pieces of fat through legal means, TSMC definitely won the hemp!

Zhang Zhong even took out his mobile phone and called Liu Dachuan very wickedly.

"Mr. Liu, why didn't I see you back during the Spring Festival, and said I wanted to invite you to dinner!"

Liu Dachuan was also devastated at this time.

On his side, he put his life on the line, abandoned the assets of the curved island, defected to Changtian Technology, and built a factory in Shanghai.

All profits are on the production of Pangu chips.

But judging from the current situation, Liu Dachuan is likely to lose everything.

If Pangu chips are not allowed to be produced because of intellectual property reasons.

Bida Semiconductor couldn't get any orders at all.

The only chance to get an order is to re-cooperate with TiSMC, and once again go through that kind of dignified hard life.

Liu Dachuan was very angry.

Of course he knew that Zhang Zhong was calling now, and he must be uneasy and kind, but to make fun of himself.

Liu Dachuan could also hear some noisy voices behind Zhang Zhong from the phone.

The sound of drinking, the sound of cheering, and the sound of laughter.

Obviously, TSMC is holding a celebration banquet at this time.

Liu Dachuan sneered and hung up the phone without answering anything.

And what about Liu Dachuan?

The executives of Bida Semiconductor also learned of the US verdict, and two groups had formed at the top at this time.

On the one hand, I hope that Bida Semiconductor will completely withdraw from the mainland area, take back 30% of the shares in Changtian Technology, return to Wanwan Island, and cooperate with TiSMC again.

Because from the current point of view, this is the only way for Bida Semiconductor to survive.

Another wave of people insisted on staying in the mainland Shanghai market because they were fed up with TSMC.

"Even if Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor received an unfavorable judgment this time, the Xiaguo market is an uncultivated virgin land!"

"Then we can give full play to our technical advantages and start from scratch! It doesn't matter if we have to work harder now!"

Liu Dachuan's head hurt when he watched the high-level quarrel.

…

Jiangzhou Changtian Technology Headquarters.

Chen Xiao is watching a movie and drinking tea in the office.

The phone rang quickly and then calmed down.

This is the sound of text messages.

Chen Xiao opened his phone and saw that it was from Wang Xiang.

Wang Xiang said in a text message: "I have arrived in Holland and got in touch with ASML."

Chen Xiao replied in a text message: "Enjoy the blooming tulips and the spinning windmill."

Spring has arrived and the weather is gradually returning.

From March to May, when the tulips are in full bloom, Chen Xiao said to himself: "Going to Holland at this time is really a beautiful scenery!"

Wang Xiang didn't have any time to enjoy the scenery.

With a team of three, he found the senior management of ASML through the Chinese engineers on the side of Holland.

Asmar learned that it was the CEO and president of Changtian Technology who came to visit, and they paid more attention to it, and sent a deputy general manager Cosiros to meet Wang Xiang.

Cosiros thought that Wang Xiang was here to buy a lithography machine. After all, he knew about Changtian Technology and its subsidiary Yanjiang Semiconductor.

The 130-nanometer optical technology currently used by Yanjiang Semiconductor is still obtained from middlemen on the European side, not directly from ASML.

The most commonly used 180-nanometer optical technology of Xiaxin International is the outdated second-hand goods purchased from Germany.

Kosiros also knows the judgment of the United States, although Yanjiang Semiconductor is appealing ~www.mtlnovel.com~, but there is little chance of a comeback.

Although the judgment of the US court did not prohibit Changtian Technology from engaging in the semiconductor processing industry.

But ASML's most important shareholder is Intel.

Intel is absolutely not willing to sell the related equipment of Longsky Technology here.

Moreover, after the 1980s, the United States and Europe introduced a series of laws prohibiting the export of high-end equipment to Xia.

Lithography machine is one of the high-end equipment.

Cosiros also said very directly: "Mr. Wang Xiang, you should also know the current situation of the industry. There is definitely no way for us to sell equipment to your company."

"But if your company really needs products, we can sell some civilian microlithography machines."

This is totally insulting.

Wang Xiang smiled and did not answer, and said, "Mr. Kosiros, this time I am here in the name of the company, not to purchase equipment, but to discuss cooperation with you."

This time, Kosiros was stunned. What can Changtian Technology cooperate with?

Wang Xiang said: "I wonder if ASML is interested in a 65-nanometer lithography machine with a yield rate of over 90%?"After hearing Wang Xiang's words, Kosiros felt a little stunned. What does this mean?

What is a 65nm lithography machine with a yield rate of more than 90%?

What is this kidding?

Is Changtian Technology selling lithography machine products to Ames?

Kosiros couldn't help laughing, and did not hide his playful expression in the slightest.

What company is ASML?

The world's largest lithography machine provider, and even the only high-end lithography machine provider.

Now Changtian Technology is actually asking Corsiro if he is interested in a 65-nanometer lithography machine.

Isn't this playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong?

Kosiros felt that Wang Xiang's group came here to make himself happy.

Although he didn't know what Wang Xiang's purpose was, he felt that the purpose of Wang Xiang's visit this time should have something to do with the judgment of the US court.

Kosiros didn't want to spend his energy playing games with Wang Xiang, so he shrugged and said, "Mr. Wang Xiang, I really don't understand what you just said."

"I'll take it as if you need to buy ASML's lithography machine, but I'm very sorry, as I said just now, we have no way to sell your company's lithography machine products, we have to abide by the relevant international trade rules . . "

This so-called rule is the relevant policy specified by the West in order to prohibit the sale of high-tech products to Xia, and of course it is valid for high-end lithography machines.

Wang Xiang knew that Kosiros did not understand what he meant.

Wang Xiang wasn't angry because of Kosiros' playful expression.

As the world's largest lithography machine company, a company that almost monopolizes the entire high-end chip manufacturing lithography equipment, Cosiros does have the capital to play.

Wang Xiang leaned on the seat and took a sip of coffee and said, "Is there any tea?"

As a traditional Xia people, Wang Xiang does not have the habit of drinking coffee.

This request of Wang Xiang made Kosiros very angry, and he said angrily: "I'm sorry, there is no tea here."

Wang Xiang nodded, put the coffee cup on the table, and said, "At present, there are only two companies in the world that can produce 65-nanometer chips, one is a chip factory under Intel, and the other is Tire Electromechanical."

In order to consolidate its monopoly position, Intel retains its own chip processing factory even if most of the chips are handed over to the tire electromechanical foundry.

And Intel's chip production plant is even stronger than the tire electromechanical in terms of technology and strength.

Wang Xiang added: "However, the current mainstream chip registration in the world is still 130nm, and Intel's 90nm chip has just started mass production. It is expected that it will not be applied to commercial computers on a large scale until the beginning of this year or even next year."

Kosiros listened to Wang Xiang's words very seriously, he frowned, wondering what Wang Xiang meant by so many opening remarks?

Does this help Changtian Technology to buy a lithography machine?

Obviously not!

Wang Xiang said: "Why can't 65nm chips be mass-produced? The main reason is that the yield rate is not high."

"Even if the lithography machine of Amax is used, the probability of successful lithography is not more than 70%, and the yield of other equipment is not high, so the comprehensive yield of 65nm chips is less than 60%. "

Even Kosiros was very tired of Wang Xiang, but at this time he had to admit that Wang Xiang's statement was completely correct.

Less than 60% yield, which is quite a scary number.

Chip production is high-end production, and the cost is quite high. If the yield rate is less than 60%, then the chip cost will definitely be pushed up, and the cost will be high to a certain range, and consumers will never pay.

So in this case, even if Intel has 65nm technology, it will not produce it, and it will not be handed over to the tire electromechanical production, because the technology does not meet the standard.

"With this yield rate, any chip company will lose money in production, so mass production cannot be achieved."

"Since mass production can't be achieved, how about large-scale applications, what do you mean by Mr. Kosiros?" Wang Xiang looked directly at Kosiros, not afraid of Kosiros' gaze.

This time, Kosiros couldn't sit still.

Wang Xiang's every sentence basically got to the point.

ASML's 65nm lithography machine is not technically mature at all, it can only be said that it is barely enough.

But why does Intel know that the 65nm lithography machine is not accurate enough, and still buy it?

The most important reason is strategic deterrence.

Regardless of whether the yield rate is high or not, we will do it first.

It came out to tell the world that Intel has been able to produce chips at 65nm, and the technology is the most advanced in the world.

This strategic deterrent is very powerful.

And the lithography machine is not a cheap product, nor is it a one-shot deal.

The price of a lithography machine similar to 65nm is close to one billion meters, and there is strict after-sales.

In the future, ASML has conquered the technology and has a better yield rate, and will give Intel free updates.

Intel, of course, felt that buying it sooner or later would buy it sooner or later, so it bought it.

Cosiros said, "Mr. Wang Xiang, what do you mean by that?"

Wang Xiang asked Luo Ning to take out the materials from the file bag, and handed the materials to Kosiros and said, "Sir, you can take a look at our materials, I think you should be very interested."

Cosiros is very curious about what this material is.

After opening the material, Kosiros was stunned!

what material is this?

This is the 65nm lithography machine production technical guide written and translated by Chen Xiao himself.

Just a guide, not a complete production technique.

Complete production technology is not something that can be installed with just such a small amount of information.

However, it is only a production guide, and the above has more completely explained the key technologies and points of attention in the production process of 65nm lithography machine.

There are some points of attention that ASML has been unable to address for a long time.

This is also why the accuracy of the 65nm lithography machine has not been able to meet the requirements of ASML.

This time, Kosiros was shocked.

[Influence +300]

Kosiros hurriedly turned to the corresponding page according to the directory.

Pages are also not specific technologies, but rather descriptions like a technical outline.

The layman can't understand what these descriptions mean, but Kosiros is not only the vice president of the company, but also the head of the technical department.

I really understand the key technologies in the production of lithography machines.

By looking at the contents of the file, Cosiros was absolutely sure.

Changtian Technology's mastery of lithography machine technology is no worse than that of ASML.

And all these solutions to the problems that ASML has been unable to solve for a long time are solutions that the professional and technical personnel of ASML never thought of.

Cosiros can even conclude that if he can get the detailed technology.

Then the accuracy of ASML's 65nm lithography machine can definitely be improved to more than 99.9%.

The improvement of the precision of the lithography machine can also absolutely improve the yield of 65nm chips.

It can even directly lead to the mass production of 65-nanometer chips from companies such as Intel.

Cosiros swallowed, although Changtian Technology has a semiconductor business, and Ames is a leader in semiconductor equipment.

But the two sides have not had any contact before this.

It is a pity that ASML has dealt with Intel, AMD, etc., and does not have much energy on a small Xiaguo enterprise.

Therefore, Kosiros' understanding of Changtian Technology is limited to media reports.

It took Kosiros about 20 minutes to check the information handed over by Wang Xiang in detail.

Afterwards, Kosiros apologized to Wang Xiang again, and took the information to the technical department for discussion.

The technical department spent an hour analyzing the information in detail.

Then the entire tech sector boiled over.

"Where did this information come from? How could there be such a subtle solution to the problem?"

"Is there a detailed technical operation guide? I think that according to this method, the precision problem of our 65-nanometer lithography machine will be solved!"

"Sir, where did the technical information come from? Was it organized by the technical side of our department? Are there more details?"

Seeing the reactions of the technicians, Kosiros said with emotion: "This is not the relevant information compiled by our technicians, but from Xia Guochangtian Technology."

After detailed analysis by Cosiros and technicians, they agreed.

Changtian Technology is absolutely capable of producing 65nm-level, high-precision lithography machines.

Since then, Kosiros has not dared to neglect.

On the one hand, the matter is reported to the company's board of directors.

On the other hand, he hurried back to the conference room and urgently answered with Wang Xiang.

Because Kosiros didn't know what was the purpose of Wang Xiang's visit this time?

Wang Xiang was not idle at this time.

Instead, people walking back and forth in the corridor observe the working environment of ASML.

At this time, Wang Xiang actually had some emotions.

There are not many workers and technicians in ASML.

But it has created the world's most advanced technology products.

what does that mean?

It does not mean how powerful the technical personnel of ASML are, but behind ASML, there is a strong technology supply system.

ASML is just one reaction to the power of Western technology.

The current dilemma that Xia Guo is encountering is that the technology supply chain is too weak, and the technology environment is also very bad.

There are not many companies in Quanxiaguo that dare to innovate like Changtian Technology.

There are not many innovative technology companies, which means that the supply chain of Changtian Technology is very poor.

Every supply chain needs Changtian Technology to open up or even do it by itself.

This not only increases the time cost of Changtian Technology, but also increases the economic cost.

Seeing Wang Xiang walking in the corridor, Kosiros quickly said, "Mr. Wang Xiang is really sorry, I've made you wait here for a long time."

"Please come to the office!"

For those unfamiliar or less important guests, Kosiros usually met him in the conference room.

But for those key guests.

Cosiros would invite each other to sit in his office for a long time.

"Mr. Wang Xiang, what do you mean by the cooperation you just proposed?"

Wang Xiang smiled and asked Luo Ning to take out another document.

In fact, at this time, Wang Xiang was still a little shocked.

He also did not expect that the power of the technical document just now would be so powerful.

As for the production technology of the optical science machine, it is entirely the credit of Chen Xiao.

Wang Xiang even thought that without Chen Xiao, Changtian Technology would not have developed to today's experience.

"This is our cooperation plan, please take a look at it sir."

The content of cooperation is very simple.

Changtian Technology provides optimized, 65nm-level optical technology technology.

ASML is responsible for production.

But Changtian Technology has two conditions.

The first condition is that the lithography machine is first handed over to Changtian Technology for use.

Changtian Technology is purchased at 50% off the market price.

This condition is that the lithography machine is not allowed to be sold to Intel within one year.

Intel is available for purchase after a year.

At the same time, Changtian Technology will share 30% of the profit for each lithography machine sold.

Seeing such conditions, Kosiros was shocked.

How could he agree to this first condition.

Because this condition is to completely rank Intel as a second-class citizen.

You must know that Intel is an important shareholder of ASML.

When Wang Xiang said such conditions, he did not actually hope that ASML would agree.

Chen Xiao asked Wang Xiang to negotiate, and Wang Xiang didn't know what Chen Xiao's original intention was.

How could anyone agree to this condition?

Sure enough, Kosyros' face turned black.

He is very nervous and confused now.

He definitely can't decide this kind of thing alone, and he must submit it to the board of directors for discussion.

"Any more detailed technical information?" Kosiros said.

Wang Xiang nodded and said, "Of course! Your company will see it soon."

Wang Xiang is fine anyway, just like Chen Xiao said, he can take a look at the tulips in Holland and wait for the news here.

At this time, Jiangzhou Changtian Technology Headquarters.

Song Yi has published the 65nm lithography machine production technology, 65nm ten-etching technology, and 65nm chip production technology (non-confidential, public papers) in accordance with the company's instructions. in the magazine.

And also submitted to related computer academic journals in the United States and Europe.

If other companies submit manuscripts, they may not be valued by the relevant journals.

But this time it was Changtian Technology, and at this time, Changtian Technology already had an important influence on a global scale.

This time the global semiconductor industry was shocked.

Changtian Technology actually has a complete 65nm lithography machine production technology!

And it is a production technology with a yield rate of more than 99%!

how can that be?

Hasn't the U.S. handed down a verdict?

It is very clear that Yanjiang Semiconductor, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology, has infringed on the patented technology of TSMC~www.mtlnovel.com~ Even 130nm is stealing TSMC, how can it be possible to produce 65nm?

But judging from the papers published by Changtian Technology.

All content stated by Changtian Technology is true.

This time, the semiconductor industry in the West was stunned in an instant.

Who is stealing whose technology?

ASML has also seen relevant papers published directly by Changtian Technology.

I'm in a hurry!

If Changtian Technology cooperates with other lithography machine companies, what will be the consequences?Chapter 566 Showdown, you must lose

Asmar suddenly understood why Wang Xiang was talking about cooperating with himself this time, not buying.

Changtian Technology has a 65nm-level lithography machine, etching machine and even the entire chip manufacturing process. Do you need to buy anything from ASML?

The senior management of ASML paid great attention to this matter, and reported the relevant situation to Intel, the largest shareholder.

United States, Silicon Valley, Intel headquarters.

At this time, after seeing the paper of Changtian Technology, all the senior management of Intel were dumbfounded.

No one ever thought that Changtian Technology actually has a complete 65nm process chip production technology, which is the whole process technology from equipment to chip design and production.

Although the paper is not the most detailed content, from the perspective of the logical structure and key nodes of the paper, the paper does not have any problems.

Science is a very rigorous thing, especially in the process of writing academic papers, no logic can be a lie.

Because if one point is a lie, then it needs to be covered up with countless wrong logics...

This kind of cover up is no way to hide from the eyes of professionals.

"Why does Changtian Technology take the initiative to publish relevant papers?" Intel's president of technology, Carlier, asked this question anxiously while flipping through papers in relevant academic journals in China.

This paper of Changtian Technology is like a nuclear bomb to Intel!

Intel has the current monopoly technological advantage only after decades of accumulated technology.

Intel executives firmly believe that this advantage cannot be broken overnight.

But now the situation has changed dramatically.

Changtian Technology actually has a mature technology at the 65nm level!

Is a mature technology! Rather than have the strength to develop the technology!

Intel's CEO Ou Ning also has an urgent fax from ASML.

The other party informed Intel that Changtian Technology is currently in Holland and hopes to cooperate with ASML to jointly produce a lithography machine with a 65nm process.

Seeing such news, Ou Ning felt very uneasy.

When Changtian Technology did this, it was completely taking the initiative, and it was you who hit you and I hit me.

You, together with Tire Electromechanical, have ruled in a US court that Yanjiang Semiconductor, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology, and Xiaxin International, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology, have infringed the intellectual property rights of 130nm chips.

Inform the world that the 130nm Pangu chip designed by Changtian Technology and produced by Yanjiang Semiconductor is the technology that steals Intel and Tien Electromechanical.

So good.

Changtian Technology directly stated the 65nm technology, and invited well-known companies around the world, and even Intel's industry chain companies to assist in production.

Do you want to follow me here?

Intel simply has no way to follow.

Intel is now focusing a lot of energy on the mass production of 90nm process chips, and 65nm chips have only produced samples. How to follow?

Ou Ning is not a fool, he knows that Changtian Technology is playing a clear card.

When he invited Asmar to cooperate, he was actually demonstrating to himself.

If ASML cooperates, then Changtian Technology can save a lot of time and cost, and launch 65nm chips as soon as possible to establish itself as a leader in the semiconductor industry.

Even though Changtian Technology's share of the chip market is still far behind Intel's, its technological advantages can make up for this gap.

If ASML refuses to cooperate with Changtian Technology, Changtian Technology can cooperate with other lithography machine companies around the world to complete the production of lithography machines.

The technology is already quite detailed. With such technology, any company in the world with a little foundation can produce the corresponding lithography machine as long as it takes time.

Even if it goes to an extreme, all lithography machine companies in the world are reluctant to cooperate with Changtian Technology, so relying on Changtian Technology's own capabilities, it takes some time to build a team to produce lithography machines from scratch. No problem.

Thinking of this layer, Ou Ning broke out in a cold sweat.

What a terrible company is Intel facing.

How powerful is the technical force of Changtian Technology!

Can ASML cooperate with Changtian Technology?

Of course not!

As one of ASML's shareholders, how could Intel allow its competitors to cooperate with Alsmine?

Wouldn't that slap Intel in the face by allowing this to happen?

And what conditions did Changtian Technology propose?

The proposal is to first supply Changtian Technology with a lithography machine with a 65-nanometer process.

A year later, it will be able to sell the lithography machine to Intel at the market price, and Changtian Technology will still get most of the profits.

This feeling is a shame for Intel!

It is absolutely unbearable.

It is even more impossible to agree to this insulting clause signed by Asmar and Changtian Technology.

Changtian Technology put the cards on the table.

Intel can't do anything about it.

From the current situation.

It doesn't matter to Changtian Technology or the entire semiconductor industry what the court in the United States decides.

After all, the chip industry is a technology industry where new things can completely cover old things.

Who cares about 130-nanometer chips if 65-nanometer chips are commonplace?

The 130-nanometer chip is used in a very narrow range.

It is not necessary to use it on ordinary mechanical equipment, which increases the cost of mechanical equipment.

Currently only available on computers.

And Intel can expect that the purpose of Changtian Technology is to meet the needs of Xiaguo's domestic market, rather than for export or supply to Dell's companies.

The Xiaguo market is large enough to allow Changtian Technology and its subsidiaries Yanjiang Semiconductor and Shenchuan to live well.

Even if the judgment from the United States comes down, Yanjiang Semiconductor refuses to implement it, and everyone has nothing to do.

And there are so many PC markets in the world, except for markets other than the United States, who is the only one who would honestly and confidently respect the so-called judgment?

I don't know how many companies will defect in the face of interests.

If Changtian Technology opens the public sale of 65nm chips.

It must be Intel's 90-nanometer chip, and the other side is Yanjiang Semiconductor's 65-nanometer chip. Whoever uses the more advanced chip will be able to occupy the global market more quickly.

There is no doubt that these PC companies will flock to them.

And it is conceivable that if the fish die and the net is broken, Intel is likely to lose the Xia Guo market from now on.

The reason why Intel had no fear at the time was because its own technology was only monopolistic.

Now that advantage is gone.

Changtian Technology's products can completely replace Intel.

If you anger the ordinary people and relevant departments of Xia Guo.

Then Intel's sales in Xiaguo will definitely face a serious impact, and it will be replaced by Changtian Technology's Pangu chip.

Intel's high-level profound consideration of the subsequent development of the situation.

Although there will definitely not be any cooperation between Intel and Changtian Technology, it is absolutely impossible to tear the skin off at present.

This is absolutely detrimental to both parties.

What Intel has to do now is to try not to stimulate Changtian Technology.

Appease Changtian Technology, so that Changtian Technology can use 130-nanometer chips first, and don't rush to develop 65-nanometer chips.

At the same time, Intel must complete technological breakthroughs as soon as possible, not only to roll out 90-nanometer chips as soon as possible, but also to launch the research and development of 90-nanometer dual-core chips and 65-nanometer chips to establish its own technological advantages as soon as possible.

As for the lawsuit between TSMC and Yanjiang Semiconductor.

Intel's executives made the decision after a day-long meeting.

Wait and see, don't participate, don't speak, don't take a stand.

Intel wants to own both the Xiaguo market and the European and American markets.

The technology companies in the United States are all thieves, and they are all human beings.

Absolutely, but you can't die as a daoist.

TSMC can die Intel can't die.

The related technology of Changtian Technology's 60-nanometer chip will definitely apply for related patents and intellectual property protection immediately.

At that time, TSMC's 65-nanometer technology will definitely be blocked.

Don't look at TSMC's laugh this year. After a year or two of 65-nanometer chips have become popular, it's really too late to cry.

As for ASML, don't talk about specific cooperation in detail, but you can talk about mutual understanding in terms of technology.

Intel also wants to know very much, how did Changtian Technology's 65nm lithography machine technology come out?

This matter has to be reported to the U.S. intelligence services.

Xia's technology companies suddenly lead the United States in semiconductors.

It has a profound impact on the security of the U.S. semiconductor industry.

After the Asmar company got Intel's instigation.

Immediately welcome the arrival of Wang Xiang and his party with a grand hospitality ceremony.

Not only arranged high-level dialogue between the two sides, but also arranged for Wang Xiang to browse and explain in detail in several scenic spots in Holland.

Various official media in Holland also used prime time to report the relevant information that Changtian Technology executives came to Holland and exchanged with ASML.

The media also gave very positive and positive reports to Changtian Technology and ASML. This kind of treatment is something that Xiaguo Technology Company and even Xiaguo Company have never had in the past few decades.

This is the advantage of strength and technology.

The few Xia people in Holland saw Holland's newspapers and media on this day, and they were all actively reporting on Changtian Technology.

The Dutch people are very proud.

Xia people have never been so proud overseas!

"Changtian Technician's chip technology has reached 65 nanometers? The accuracy of the lithography machine is even more advanced than Assman?"

"It's so stupid!"

"Sure, haven't you read the news in the past few days! The semiconductor industry basically recognizes the papers published by Changtian Technology, and ASML is also discussing cooperation with Changtian Technology!"

What Wang Xiang didn't expect was that some Chinese friends came to visit Wang Xiang with flags and flowers in his hotel.

At this moment, Wang Xiang really has a little pride.

What is the purpose of Changtian Technology?

Isn't that what makes Xiaguo science and technology come to the forefront of the world, so that the people of Xiaguo can live in this world with dignity and confidence?

During this period of time, ASML's respect for Changtian Technology is the deep-rooted worship of the strong by the Anglo-Saxons and Germans.

Whether it is Holland or other parts of Europe, in the long historical period, they either invaded others or were repeatedly invaded by others, which also cultivated their willingness to submit to the strong.

Changtian Technology has proved itself with its strength, so it has gained due respect here.

Wang Xiang suddenly understood why Chen Xiao sent himself to Holland.

It is not necessary to reach any real agreement or cooperation with ASML.

Instead, it shows the attitude of Changtian Technology and shows the technical advantages of Changtian Technology, so as to allow Changtian Technology and Yanjiang Semiconductor and production companies to gain space and time for survival.

Wang Xiang is also very awake. Can Changtian Technology now sit back and relax?

Not so!

Don't look at Cosiros and others who have always greeted him with a smile, while introducing the local customs and customs here, and talking about the prospect of cooperation in the semiconductor industry.

In fact, Wang Xiang is very clear.

This group of people could not wait to peel off their own skins and muscles, and then study in detail how Changtian Technology's high-precision lithography machine with a 65-nanometer process was made.

Both sides know that they are not negotiating in good faith, but are maintaining this delicate balance.

After the three-day visit to Holland, Wang Xiang originally thought that he would leave Holland and return to Jiangzhou.

Who knew that Chen Xiao called him directly and asked him to go to Philips.

Wang Xiang immediately understood that the result that Chen Xiao wanted was not only the two sides talking about cooperation calmly and stabilizing this delicate balance~www.mtlnovel.com~ It was really about developing a 65nm lithography machine.

ASML has long been a subsidiary of Philips.

Let yourself go to Philips this time, and there must be something important to talk about.

In the technology war between companies, even if there is a balance, it must be based on strong strength.

The 65-nanometer lithography machine, Changtian Technology has to come up with at all costs.

Intel and the relevant departments in the United States reported the relevant situation.

And used all his contacts. Immediately analyze how Changtian Technology completed the technical breakthrough of 65nm chip equipment and chip production technology?

The best way is to see if you can get a complete nanolithography machine design and chip process map.

At the same time, in the American public opinion circles.

Some time ago, the crazy criticism of Changtian Technology's subsidiary Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International seemed to disappear in an instant.

Intel has little interest in continuing to support TSMC.

After all, in front of the 65-nanometer technology, the 130-nanometer technology is worthless.

On the island, the top management of TSMC has been shocked by the news.

From the beginning to the end, TSMC believed that Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor had infringed their intellectual property rights.

But now it seems.

This is not the case in practice.

Zhang Zhong immediately used all his contacts to inquire about the situation in mainland Xia and the United States.

There is only one piece of news that he is very unwilling to get.

Changtian Technology has applied for intellectual property protection of 65nm chips with a yield rate of over 90% in the United States, the mainland of Xiaguo and Europe.

This intellectual property is completely inconsistent with Intel's.
