Chapter 586 [Continue to increase investment]

At present, the advanced manufacturing process of semiconductors in the world has been advanced to the 22nm process, while the domestic process precision that can realize self-reliance is 55nm.

At this time point in the previous life, the level of domestic semiconductors was at the 90-nanometer process, while the world's semiconductors had already reached the 90-nanometer process in 2004, which was eight years behind.

Even under Fang Hong's promotion, the process has advanced to 55nm process, and the world's semiconductor industry has reached the 55nm process as early as 2007. In other words, it is still five years behind the world even now.

After the process of 55nm, there are 45nm, 40nm, 32nm, 28nm, and now 22nm. The highest-end process of domestic semiconductors is still five generations behind the highest-end process of semiconductors in the world.

Thinking that there is still a five-generation gap, Fang Hong can't help but sigh: "The road to conquering semiconductors is long and difficult."

This year has come to 2012, and America has realized that she has neglected the great eastern country for too long, and when she looks back, she is secretly startled.

That rabbit didn't pay attention and developed so fast?

And just this year, the US has gradually shifted its focus from the Middle East to the Asian region, and proposed the so-called "Asia-Pacific rebalancing" strategy, which is clearly aimed at the big eastern countries.

In the field of semiconductors, the speed of advancement must be accelerated.

At the end, Fang Hong turned his head slightly to Tian Jiayi and ordered: "Shiyao is in charge of the semiconductor area, increase the research and development progress, let Shiyao prepare a material, I want to see the status of each link in the semiconductor industry chain invested by Qunxing Capital The list information of the main R\u0026D person in charge."

The beautiful assistant nodded: "Okay."

It is necessary to consume some prop cards to add "BUFF" to those semiconductor developers. It must be pushed forward quickly. Fang Hong has a premonition that Lao Mei's suppression may come earlier, and he cannot copy the memory of his previous life. It is tantamount to seeking a sword.

Fang Hong thought about it and said: "For every generation of the world's semiconductor technology to fall, we have to repeat two generations here."

The current semiconductor manufacturing process follows Moore's Law, and the future development speed can be accurately predicted. Moore's Law is not a physical law, but a prediction of the development process of semiconductors.

After a pause, Fang Hong said in an orderly manner: "If the next generation of the world's semiconductor process is iterated to 20 nanometers in 2013, our side will have to conquer 40 nanometers in the same period; Conquer 28 nanometers; if the world's semiconductors iterate to 12 nanometers in 2015 or 2016, we will conquer 20 nanometers in the same period."

"If the world's semiconductors advance to the 10nm process in 2017, we will have to conquer 12nm in the same period; by 2018, the world's semiconductors will advance to the 8nm process, and we will also be able to achieve the 8nm process."

Fang Hong looked at Tian Jiayi, who was making a memo with downcast eyes, and continued: "That is to say, by 2018, our own domestic semiconductor technology level must be at the same level as the world's leading level. From 2018, we will achieve the goal of catching up. overtake."

In 2018, if you refer to the memory of the previous life at this time point, it was this year that the idea of ​​​​the trade war was started, and the technological war was also carried out simultaneously. All the tricks are greeted.

The eye of the storm in the previous life was "Huawei", that is, Lao Mei, as the world's hegemon, used national power to target a company and wanted to kill Huawei.

In this life, Fang Hong concluded that Huawei would definitely be the target of Lao Mei's suppression, but it was definitely not the eye of the storm in this technology war. A company most wanted to kill in the high-tech field.

Fang Hong went on to add: "The semiconductor sector continues to increase investment. This year's investment scale will directly increase by 35% on the basis of last year. In addition, there will be a collective salary increase for the employees of many semiconductor subsidiaries under Qunxing Capital. And key technical personnel will give me double the salary, the allotment of the allotment."

Fang Hong said unhurriedly: "That's enough meat, I have to do the work to the death. Don't tell me that technological breakthroughs can't be achieved overnight. This is something that others have already done. They are developing generation after year. , our side must repeat the generation every six months, and the same generation will catch up with the generation every year, otherwise as long as Moore's Law is still in effect, we will never catch up, and we must catch up with the world's advanced level around 2018."

The semiconductor industry chain will directly increase the investment scale by 35%. This is a costly effort to catch up. It is basically foreseeable that in this round of salary increases, the top domestic semiconductor talents will most likely be attracted to the new city.

Time came to June.

In the technology circle, especially in the smartphone industry, the major event this month is undoubtedly the summer conference of the third-generation flagship machine S3 of Xingyu Technology, which is currently attracting the attention of consumers and the industry.

The smartphone industry has been very lively recently, and the "Tai Chi Alliance" has become a hot topic in the industry. Last month, the executives of Xingyu Technology resigned and founded six smartphone companies.

Now these six mobile phone manufacturers for the middle and low-end market have joined the "Tai Chi Alliance". financing, five of which are new brands, while the other three are counterfeit phone brands.

By mid-June, these eight mobile phone manufacturers and Xingyu Technology jointly announced to join the "Tai Chi Alliance". So far, the "Tai Chi Alliance" has 14 manufacturers' brands.

During the recent period, a large number of OEM knockoff brands have applied to join the "Tai Chi Alliance". Manufacturers such as Xiaomi, Coolpad, and vivo refused to lose their autonomy and refused to join the "Tai Chi Alliance". "Applying to join the group" is more diligent than one.

But Qin Feng doesn't let all cats and dogs in, there is still a threshold, otherwise all gods will be let in, and you don't discuss if you encounter pig teammates.

Entering the middle of 2012, the smart phone industry in the Greater China market has gradually formed a new pattern.

In the high-end market, Xingyu Technology and Apple are in the first echelon.

The second echelon of the low-end market has formed the Android system camp of manufacturers such as Xiaomi, vivo, and oppo, and the TOS system camp of manufacturers such as Oppein, Tongmai, and Huaxin.

The third echelon is the group of OEM copycat phones. If you want to choose one of them to be the leader, Nietzsche mobile phones are currently the leader of the copycat phones.

In the current June, apart from preparing for the S3 press conference, Xingyu Technology is also advancing its IPO listing plan in an orderly manner. If everything goes smoothly, it is expected to be listed in November in the fourth quarter of the second half of the year.
