Chapter 153： Huaxing's crisis

"I am the president of the university (

"Huaxing's mobile phone will be cut off? Where should Huaxing go?" - Easy Net News.

"Severed confession?" Chen Hao looked at the word with an ominous premonition.

I clicked on the news and saw that the content was about Huaxing being attacked by Beautiful Country.

Companies such as Qualcomm and TSMC are prohibited from providing chip products to Huaxing, and the words all point to Guanghua Semiconductor not selling products to beautiful Chinese companies.

"What is Beautiful Country doing! The conflict has escalated now." Chen Hao was a little worried.

I feel like I'm in trouble.

Because the photonic screen was not sold to Apple, the other party directly sanctioned Huaxing.

Enough for a dog too!

The following bunch of comments are all about the beautiful country, and by the way, the Apple company, after all, Apple is also one of the culprits this time.

"The next old man will hate me to death." Chen Hao thought, and couldn't help showing a wry smile.

Huaxing's mate45 series has just been launched, and the chip supply has been cut off. This attack is too big.

Pengcheng.

When Ren Zonghua heard the news, as a representative of the older generation of entrepreneurs, his face was calm.

On the other hand, Wei Han started to panic.

Ren Zonghua turned his head to look at Wei Han, who had a little worried expression on his face, smiled slightly, and said with anger, "Wei Han, you are nervous."

Of course Wei Han was nervous!

When he heard the news, he panicked on the spot!

What is the concept of a chip for a mobile phone?

Equivalent to the heart in the human body.

The heart is gone, do you think it's important?

Wei Han looked at Ren Zonghua with a calm face, and a sense of admiration rose in his heart, worthy of being President Ren.

"I...I'm a little nervous. I have already contacted Qualcomm and TSMC. Although the other party also wants to continue to supply us, the beautiful country's decision leaves them no room for resolution."

"Mr. Ren, what do you think we should do?" Wei Han was in despair, and after thinking about it, he couldn't find a solution.

Ren Zonghua hesitated and said calmly, "Has SMIC contacted you?"

"SMIC?" Wei Han was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he frowned and replied, "SMIC can only produce 14nm chips now, and chips of this level can only be used in low-end mobile phones. Our mate series And the flagship machine of the p series is definitely not able to be loaded."

"With Liang Yiqing at SMIC, it's only a matter of time before it catches up with TSMC, but unfortunately, the beautiful country's sanctions came too early this time." Ren Zonghua sighed, feeling somewhat regretful.

"No matter how powerful Liang Yiqing is, he is not a god, right? It will take a year from 14nm to 10nm at the fastest, and after 10nm, there will be 7nm and 5nm... We Huaxing can't wait that long." Wei Han said, a trace of irritability appeared on his face.

nm is the unit nanometer of the unit chip, professional users call it the gate length, and the gate length is the width of the gate of the complementary oxide metal semiconductor field effect transistor formed on the CPU.

Generally speaking, the gate length can be understood as the distance between transistors or the integration degree of the chip.

"If we cut off the supply of Huaxing, it will also cause harm to TSMC and Qualcomm. Sooner or later, we will open up. We will see if we can survive." Ren Zonghua's thinking is very clear.

Huaxing's mobile phone chips are divided into self-designed Kirin chips produced by TSMC, and Qualcomm chips purchased.

With Huaxing's current size, it accounts for a lot of 20% of TSMC's orders.

If a company loses 20% of its orders, does it mean that the company's profits will be reduced by 20%? No, because of the large amount of fixed capital expenditures, the business is likely to be in the red.

That is to say, after TSMC loses Huaxing's order, the loss to itself is also very large!

This is completely harmful and unhelpful!

Wei Han thought with a glimmer of hope, "How about we contact Guanghua's Chen Hao, the cause of the incident is that Guanghua banned the sale of photonic screens to Apple. If they provide it, maybe this cut off of confession can be cancelled."

Hearing Wei Han's words, Ren Zonghua burst out laughing, shook his head and said, "Wei Han, you are so naive! Do you really think that the reason for cutting off the supply of chips is because of Guanghua?!"

"Ridiculous! This is just a fuse. The competition between Huaxing Mobile and Apple mobile phones in the world's major markets is already a threat. Sooner or later, the other party will make such a decision, it is nothing more than an advance."

"Then... what's the point?" Wei Han's hands and feet are cold, letting his smart brain work, this is a dead end on the chessboard!

Can't solve it at all!

Ren Zonghua thought about it and asked, "How long can the existing chips last?"

Wei Han replied without hesitation: "I asked today, the existing chips can only guarantee the supply of our flagship model for 3 months."

"Three months..." Ren Zonghua waved his hand and let Wei Han go down first.

Sitting in the office, he thought of a person.

Liang Yiqing.

Liang Mengsong is a legendary figure in the semiconductor industry. From 1992 to 2017, he led TSMC and Samsung's process to overtake Intel and became the world's two largest wafer foundries.

In terms of chip technology, Intel was originally the most advanced. In 2011, the chip process reached 22nm.

At this time TSMC is only 28nm, Samsung has not reached 28nm, and SMIC has just broken through 55nm...

By this year, Intel chips are 7nm, Samsung and TSMC are the top 5nm, and SMIC is still just producing 14nm chips.

How big is the gap?

The level of China's top chip company SMIC is now equivalent to Intel in 2014, Samsung in 2015, and TSMC in 2016.

A full gap of more than 4 years!

Should Huaxing wait 4 years?

In one year, there is no 5nm chip supply. With only SMIC's 14nm chip, Huaxing's share in the high-end machine field of major markets in the world will be divided by Samsung mobile phones and Apple mobile phones!

Fortunately, Liang Yiqing, the semiconductor god, came to SMIC, and Ren Zonghua believed it.

As long as Liang Yiqing and Huaxia Semiconductor are given 2 years, they will be able to develop 5nm chips.

It's just... Can Huaxing really survive until that day?

As soon as Wei Han left, Ren Zonghua didn't hide his face, and a sense of exhaustion came up.

"What can I do?" Ren Zonghua turned to look out the window, the sun was still shining brightly.

"Yes! Since they can develop a photonic screen, can an optical chip also be developed?!"

Thinking of this, Ren Zonghua was refreshed and called Chen Hao.

At this moment, Chen Hao, who was still eating in the staff cafeteria, suddenly received a call from Ren Zonghua.

"Could it be that Lai Xing Shi asked for his guilt?"

This sentence appeared in Chen Hao's mind.

He couldn't help but make his tone of voice become cautious.

"Hey, Mr. Ren, what's the matter?"

ps: Ask for a recommended ticket and ask for a monthly pass!

One more chapter, wait a minute.
