Chapter 2836 Rare Earth! It’s Rare Earth!!
Solomon said irritably: "Hegemony is the world's largest chip consumer market!
I won’t hesitate, Chen Mo is really willing to give up this big piece of fat meat!!!"
"Now, whether it's us or Chen Mo, we are all fighting with gritted teeth!
Whoever is timid will lose completely! "
"Spread the news immediately and have people start building a chip production line!!!
Even if it's just for show, we have to brag that our production line is running very fast. We have to make a big splash and let everyone know that we have no shortage of chips!
It's not like we can't leave Daxia!"
Michelle thought to herself, isn’t this just deceiving oneself?
After a long time, who can fail to notice it?
However, what he didn't know was that Solomon no longer cared about the future!
Solomon's mind is now full of thoughts on how to get through the "ultimate battle"!
Even the future of the hegemonic country, Solomon, can be sacrificed without hesitation, let alone a mere chip industry!
But Solomon was right to think so.
If we lose this battle, how can we have a future?
Michelle immediately summoned the heads of the companies under the foundation that had the technology to produce chips and ordered: "Immediately organize people to build a chip production line in the country of hegemony!
Not only that, in the future, electronic product foundries and various high-tech foundries will also be established! ! "
Several responsible persons felt their scalps tingle after hearing this, and could only say awkwardly: "The labor cost of our country is almost the highest in the world, and the efficiency is also notoriously slow.
If we really want to set up a local OEM factory, let’s not talk about whether we can do it, even if we can do it.
Wouldn’t the cost be sky-high?
An entry-level iPhone might cost 15000 yuan, who would buy it?"
"It's not that easy to build a production line. From design to construction, it takes several months even in Daxia. I think it will take at least twice as long here, right?
Do we have the time?
If it is done, the company will almost go bankrupt, right? "
“The top talents in the chip industry are now monopolized by Hongmeng Lab.
We can’t find talent to develop 5nm chips, nor can we produce 5nm lithography machines and production lines.”
"..."
A group of people began to back out.
After all, Michelle only needs to touch her upper lip to her lower lip, but they are actually paying for it!!!
Michelle said impatiently: "Just pretend!!! Now that the stock market and the hegemonic currency have fallen so sharply, aren't you trying to push them up?
Could you please use your brains?
Where has the wisdom that is usually used to deceive retail investors gone? "
After hearing this, the responsible persons felt relieved and expressed their willingness to obey orders.
After the arrangements are made.
Michelle immediately arranged an official press conference to prepare for a countermeasure against the chip sanctions launched by Chen Mo.
Even if it is just verbal counterattack, you must not give in.
The press conference will be ready soon.
The spokesperson spoke passionately into the camera, repeating everything Michelle had told him to do.
The general meaning is that we, the Hegemonic Country, are not afraid of the chip sanctions from the Great Xia Country, we can develop all the technologies and production lines ourselves!
We have already made 5nm chips!!!
The top IT companies in each major country have already started to take action, and the country that will fail in the end will definitely be Daxia!
However, the press conference was only halfway through.
The staff member found Michelle with a horrified look on his face and said tremblingly, "Master Michelle...you...you take a look at this..."
Michelle looked at the tablet he handed over with a puzzled look, and then almost fainted.
The screen displayed an announcement that Daxia had just issued: "Daxia has included 17 rare earth elements in the export control list, and will limit their export in the future."
Michelle suddenly felt like crying but had no tears!
The technology and production lines for manufacturing chips do require high technology, but it is not impossible to do it.
But one of the indispensable raw materials for making chips - rare earth, this thing is not something that can be made just by saying so!!!
Without rare earths, no matter how advanced your technology is, you can’t create chips out of thin air!!!
The most terrifying thing is that Daxia accounts for more than 60% of the world's rare earth production?, and this is just the production!
Daxia’s refined output accounts for 92% of the world’s total, and its heavy rare earth refining capacity is as high as 99%?! ! !
In other words, even if we have rare earths, it is impossible to get the raw materials for chips without refining technology!
Without Daxia’s rare earth refining technology and large-scale production, there would be no prosperous chip industry in this hegemonic country!
This wave of announcements was released at the right time, and it was obvious that they were telling the world that the Great Xia Kingdom was serious about this!!!
I’m going to give the hegemony a slap in the face!!!
"It's over...it's really over now..."
Michelle murmured tremblingly.
