Zhang Zhongmou's prestige has great energy in semiconductor.
Although he only does OEM, he doesn't have any consumer products.
However, when OEM reaches the extreme, no one dares to underestimate it.
Even Intel and Samsung have great admiration for TSMC.
Under Zhang Zhongmou's circle, Intel and Samsung did not hesitate too much.
In fact, like Zhang Zhongmou, they have long felt the pressure of Huanyu technology.
In particular, Samsung and Huanyu technology have competed with Samsung in mobile phone, OEM, TV, LCD and other businesses, and some businesses have also overwhelmed Samsung. Just because this market is very large, even if Huanyu technology comes in, their business is still growing, which makes them slightly ignore it. But after Zhang Zhongmou clarified the advantages and disadvantages, several giants knew. If they don't enter and want to curb Huanyu technology in the future, it will be too late.
A few days later, TSMC, Intel, Samsung and the Netherlands ASML held a global press conference. The meeting announced that TSMC, Intel and Samsung would jointly inject US $7 billion into ASML and formally study the wet lithography process.
This news may not be understood by ordinary people. They don't know what they are doing.
But even so, the huge amount of $7 billion is an extremely terrible figure.
"President Chen, TSMC, Intel and Samsung injected $7 billion into ASML."
For the first time, Zhang Jianming came to Chen Yu's office.
Who this news is aimed at most can be seen at a glance.
"I see."
Chen Yu sat in the office chair.
News like this has already spread all over the world.
Even if Chen Yu didn't ask for information, he would have received it.
In fact, Chen Yu doesn't need to ask for information. TSMC, Intel, Samsung and ASML held a press conference. They officially announced to the world that they want to study wet lithography.
"President Chen, TSMC Zhang Zhongmou has a high prestige and has a great influence in the global semiconductor industry. We should make a response strategy quickly."
After Zhang Jianming, Lin Benhan, who received the news, also came.
"Chief engineer Lin, why are you here?"
Seeing Lin Benhan coming, Chen Yu smiled and said, "you and Professor Wang Ren are not professional researchers of technology."
"Mr. Chen, although we study technology, we also have to pay attention to the movements of semiconductor giants around the world. Just immersing ourselves in technology research, it is not certain when our technology has passed."
"It's too late. How could it be? Chief engineer Lin, you put forward the wet lithography theory. We should have the best advantage."
"President Chen, you can't say that."
Lin Benhan shook his head: "Although I was the first to put forward the wet lithography theory, I was actually the first to improve it. In the industry, we discussed it privately with some other experts. At that time, we thought it was a direction, but we didn't go further because the theories in various aspects were not perfect. Later, I found that the dry lithography technology encountered bottle shank, and I I put my idea back on the theory of wet lithography. Therefore, I further improved it. "
"In other words, TSMC's research in this area may not be weaker than ours?"
"Even, it may be better than us."
Lin Benhan said seriously.
"Better than us."
Chen Yu touched his chin.
He was not surprised by Lin Benhan's words.
In fact, he had been ready before.
How can wet lithography just dig corners? Lin bendifficult can completely surpass them alone.
Even with Professor Wang Ren dug up from Peking University, it is far from enough.
TSMC, ASML, Intel, Samsung... They have been mixed in the semiconductor field for decades. They are much better than Huanyu technology alone. Not to mention, they also have world-class talents.
"Never mind, chief engineer Lin, I believe in your strength."
Chen Yu thought for a while and said to chief engineer Lin, "don't worry about studying."
"President Chen, I'm worried that they may be one step faster than us."
"It's nothing to be a step faster. Our own research on semiconductors is slower than them."
After several generations of backward technology, Chinese people have come over like this, not to mention that they are faster than Huanyu technology.
With Chen Yu's play.
Even if they first developed the wet lithography process, Chen Yu could turn them over.
Moreover, they may not be faster than Huanyu technology.
Seeing that chief engineer Lin still had some pressure, Chen Yu thought and said, "well, chief engineer Lin, let me go to the laboratory with you."
"Mr. Chen, who are you?"
"Let's go. You'll know when you go."
"OK, Mr. Chen, please follow me."
Take Chen Yu, chief engineer Lin and Zhang Jianming to the laboratory.
At this time, all technicians in the laboratory are doing their own work.
This includes the newly dug Professor Wang Ren and several senior brothers of Chen Yu who are exchange students at Peking University.
"Everybody, stop."
Chief engineer Lin said to everyone in the laboratory.
Chen Yu stepped forward and said, "don't be nervous. It's not so formal. There's nothing here today. I just want to talk to you."
Chen Yu let everyone relax and asked, "Professor Wang, how are you doing in the company recently."
"Everything is fine."
"Tired or not."
"Well, I'm tired, I'm not tired, I'm not tired."
"What do you say?"
"Tired because some of us who engage in technology often don't even care about food when we start research, and we have to stay up late from time to time."
"It's really hard. Isn't it tired?"
"Not tired, but we can turn various theories into reality step by step through our research. This is very rewarding in terms of spirit and sense of achievement."
Professor Wang Ren tells the truth.
When he began to enter Huanyu technology, he still had some concerns.
But after joining Huanyu technology for a period of time, he didn't feel much about Peking University.
In an experimental environment like Huanyu technology, you can't find it with lanterns in Peking University.
"Professor Wang said well."
Chen Yu took the lead in clapping.
Then Chen Yu said, "you must know that TSMC, Intel and Samsung have recently taken shares in ASML."
"Mr. Chen, you can rest assured that we will work hard to overcome the wet lithography theory before them."
Wang Ren promised Chen Yu.
"Professor Wang, you think too much. Wet lithography is an extremely complex process. It's not urgent. Moreover, I don't want you to work day and night. Therefore, when I come here today, I especially send you a welfare."
"Chief engineer Lin's annual salary is increased to 100 million, bonus and equity are calculated separately."
"Ah?"
Lin Ben didn't think of the sudden pay rise.
Moreover, one plus is so cruel.
"Chief engineer Lin, don't be surprised. Some of your scientific researchers are the core force of our Huanyu technology."
Of course, this salary increase is not just for Lin Benhan, but for everyone in the laboratory.
"In addition to chief engineer Lin, other project leaders have an annual salary of 30 million."
"Senior researcher, with an annual salary of 10 million."
"Senior researcher, with an annual salary of 5 million."
With that, Chen Yu looked at several senior brothers next to Professor Wang Ren.
Previously, it was said that several senior brothers were hired to be chief engineer Lin's assistant. In fact, Lin Ben had assistants for a long time and didn't need them.
When Professor Wang Ren was dug up, Chen Yu asked several younger martial brothers to follow Professor Wang Ren again.
Several senior brothers and Professor Wang Ren were very satisfied with this arrangement.
"Also, our junior researcher, starting with a minimum of 1 million..."
The so-called junior researchers are Chen Yu's senior brothers in Peking University.
"Mr. Chen, can we also get an annual salary of 100 thousand years?"
Hundreds of millions of wages fell, and the whole laboratory was completely forced.
But no matter how forced, they can never ignore the charm of money.
At this time, several senior brothers of Chen Yu in Peking University had shouted excitedly.
"Oh, of course."
Chen Yu nodded affirmatively: "come on, in a few years, if you get a senior researcher, you can get 5 million."
