Chapter 653

On October 8, Liu Zhicheng and the other two main technical directors of the wafer factory project submitted their resignation to TSMC. After obtaining the consent of TSMC, the three arrived in Singapore by plane with sun Shangyi and Guo Songyan that night.

The next day, on October 9, Liu Zhicheng announced in Shicheng that he officially accepted the joint entrustment of Yuexiu holdings and Guo Yunyuan group to take charge of the important task of preparing the wafer factory project in Jianye.

Kong mingzan, the Chinese Embassy in Singapore, met sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan and Liu Zhicheng at the embassy and welcomed them, the leaders of Chinese, to invest and start businesses in the mainland on behalf of the mainland government.

Until now, the Taiwan authorities and TSMC knew that the original wafer factory investment project had long been transferred from Malaysia to the mainland, and it took more than two days to plan for this.

That night, Ambassador Kong mingzan held a reception for sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan and Liu Zhicheng at the embassy. Senior executives from the Singapore National Investment Authority and Singapore integrated circuit manufacturer Singapore Jidian group attended the reception of ambassador Kong mingzan.

Singapore Jidian group will be the process technology supplier of the first eight inch wafer factory in the mainland. At the reception that night, senior people attending the state investment administration of Singapore told sun Shangyi and Guo Songyan that they were also interested in participating in the investment project of the wafer factory.

Sun Shangyi informed Zhang Ke about the matter by telephone in Singapore.

Considering that several wafer factory projects in Singapore participated by the national investment authority of Singapore have been at a loss, the Singapore authorities are unlikely to inject too much capital into their wafer factory project, which will affect his control over the project through Yuexiu holdings. On the other hand, at present, only wafer manufacturing technology is introduced from Singapore, Even if there is a crisis in this project, Zhang Ke thought: with the Singapore Investment Authority as a partner, it will be easier to overcome various obstacles that may be encountered in the future.

This investment project is only to introduce an eight inch production line. Even if it is successful, it is only to obtain the 0.35 micron manufacturing technology of Singapore power collection group. As early as the late 486 era, Intel used the 0.35 micron manufacturing process, that is, the wafer factory project invested this time is at least four to five years away from the world's top technical level. The introduction of 12 inch production lines and 0.25 micron or even more advanced manufacturing processes are obstacles to be overcome in the future. Only by introducing these basic processes and technologies and cultivating a group of engineering technology and R & D personnel, can mainland wafer manufacturing be regarded as a foundation for embarking on the real development road, which is still an extremely long road.

This road wants to go smoothly with the strength of the Jinhu family. The difficulties are really beyond ordinary people's imagination. If possible, Zhang Ke even wants to pull Deyi in.

Deyi always focuses on moving towards higher-end technology and gradually withdraws from the middle and low-end market. With the good technical cooperation between Jinhu and Deyi at this time, it is very possible to introduce Deyi's investment.

Anyway, if Jinhu wants to catch up with Deyi in the technology of integrated circuit manufacturing, it is unrealistic to run without ten or eight years.

Of course, there is no need to rush to throw an olive branch to Deyi at this time. When there is hope for the completion of the project, it is possible to obtain more advanced manufacturing technology from Deyi as a condition.

With this idea in mind, Zhang Ke discussed with sun Shangyi on the phone and said: "The Singaporean authorities always want to exert more influence in the Chinese circle. Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong probably wants to establish a new leader of the Chinese. This is good. It also shares our financial pressure. We really don't need to refuse. Of course, since they suddenly want to participate, they can make more contributions. It seems that the funds needed by the Guo family can invite new people The Gabor authorities help solve the problem and share the financing pressure on the Mainland... "

Despite the double impact of the Asian financial crisis and the economic crisis, there is no doubt about Singapore's economic strength. The investment of US $300 million or US $200 million is also a trivial matter for the Singapore authorities. At this time, it is undoubtedly a strategic decision to increase the investment in the wafer factory project.

Singapore's small population, lack of human resources and high cost of human resources, narrow market and barriers with other countries and regions have led to the loss of several wafer factories in Singapore after their completion. Even so, the Singapore authorities have not given up their investment in their domestic wafer factories.

The prospect of the mainland market seems even more attractive. A huge market with a population of 1.3 billion without tariff barriers. The disc player industry developed in the past two or three years alone provides a huge market of nearly $600 million for integrated circuit manufacturing.

At this time, the outside world does not know that Jinhu will divide a large piece of cake from the integrated circuit manufacturing market only through the super VCD decoding chip.

Of course, this huge profit can only be enjoyed occasionally. If you want to really divide a large piece of cake from the integrated circuit manufacturing market, you need to have considerable technology and human resources in the field of integrated circuit manufacturing and design.

As another investor in the wafer factory project, Guo Songyan also welcomes the Singapore authorities to join. Guo sold 30% equity of Yunyuan pulping to Xinguang paper to obtain US $100 million, which has alleviated the capital pressure of Yunyuan group to a considerable extent. Moreover, the capital injection to the wafer factory project does not need to occupy the current capital of Yunyuan group.

On October 12, sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan and Liu Zhicheng initialed a cooperation agreement with the state investment authority of Singapore and Singapore power collection group. The draft cooperation agreement stipulates the investment proportion of each company. Yuexiu holdings contributes US $300 million to hold 56%, and the investment authority of Singapore contributes US $100 million to hold about 19%; Guo Yunyuan group contributed US $80 million, holding about 15% of the shares. Liu Zhicheng and his management team contributed US $20 million, plus 10% of the shares in technology and management.

Since Guo Songyan planned the wafer factory project years ago, Liu Zhicheng has planned to transfer his personal assets out of Taiwan. Of course, some assets, such as his personal shareholding in TSMC, cannot be transferred out. He also has the consciousness of sacrificing this part of assets. Compared with his personal assets, he will yearn for his career achievements and personal status in the whole electronic industry.

On October 13, sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan, Liu Zhicheng and more than 20 of the first batch of engineers and technicians and their families flew directly from Singapore to Jianye International Airport.

Ge Jiande, deputy director of the State Planning Commission and leader of the electronic information industry development leading group of the State Council, Yi Yunfei, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Posts and telecommunications and deputy leader of the electronic information industry development leading group, and his party met with Tao Jin, Secretary of the Donghai provincial Party committee, Li Yuanhu, governor, Luo Jun, Secretary of the Jianye municipal Party committee, Xiao Mingjian, mayor of Jianye City, Wang Weijun, vice mayor of the Standing Committee and leader of the digital corridor concept leading group Accompanied by Huang Kequn, vice mayor and director of Xinpu high tech Zone, Yao Wensheng, Investment Promotion Bureau of Xinpu high tech Zone, they drove to Jianye International Airport to meet sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan, Liu Zhicheng and others.

There is no doubt that the wafer factory project is of great significance to the new strategy of high-tech industry in Donghai Province, the new strategy of high-tech industry in Jianye city and the layout of the whole domestic high-tech industry. Compared with Motorola's factory construction plan in Tianjin, Jianye's wafer factory investment plan has more breakthrough meaning and value, which serves the whole regional electronic industry after all.

Ge Jiande, deputy director of the State Planning Commission, arrived in Jianye, not only to pick up sun Shangyi, Guo Songyan and Liu Zhicheng, but also to conduct on-the-spot inspection on the new industrial new strategic plan of Donghai province and Jianye city on behalf of the State Planning Commission. Once it is approved, the state will tilt the industrial policies of Donghai province and Jianye city.

Presumably, no one wants Zhang Ke, a tired and lazy young man, to mix with the well-dressed middle-aged and elderly people. The relationship between Jinhu is quite complex, and no suitable person can be sent to accompany Tao Jin, Secretary of the provincial Party committee, and others to attend the airport pick-up activities.

Jinhu Electronic Technology Research Institute is the actual controller of Yuexiu holdings. Ding Huai is the chairman and President of Jinhu Electronic Technology Research Institute, but his reputation and influence are not as good as Chen Xinsheng, President of Aida group, but Aida group is not directly related to Yuexiu holdings; In terms of position, as president of Jinhu, Cai feijuan is more qualified to attend such activities. However, in the Jinhu system, Cai feijuan's status is actually lower than that of Chen Xinsheng, Ding Huai, Su Jindong, zhouyou and others.

It's really a headache architecture. In such a big scene, Zhang Ke can't find a suitable candidate if he doesn't go out in person.

Zhang Ke simply refused to let Jinhu send people to participate in the reception activities at the airport. Naturally, sun Shangyi, as the chairman of Yuexiu holdings, and Jiang Wei, as the president of Yuexiu holdings, accompanied Guo Songyan, Liu Zhicheng and others.

Tao Jin, Li Yuanhu, Luo Jun and others must be able to understand.

Although the tour also took the same flight from Singapore to Jianye, he secretly left with ordinary passengers from other security channels.

At the same time, they arrived at Jianye International Airport by plane. Tan Yunsong, the chief scientist of oak garden microelectronics technology basic laboratory, and his wife, with their technical team led from Singapore, quietly took the pick-up car sent by Oak garden and left.
