Chapter 689 Huge expressway construction plan
Qinglong Technology's main job now is to design 28-nanometer chips, and it plans to upgrade all its chips, which leads to a very heavy workload for their chip design.
Although he left a good foundation before, but this time the span is very large, directly from 90 nanometers to 28 nanometers, and many steps are missing in the middle.
However, only by leaps and bounds in this way can the existing chip companies be hit hard, so that they can stop messing around.
Moreover, Ye Zishu asked Xuanwu Technology Company not to directly sell the chip production line as before. In fact, he did not want to sell the 90-nanometer production line, but there was no other way.
Don't look at the fact that they went directly from 500 nanometers to 90 nanometers last time, which is quite a large span. In fact, it is not the case. Many of their manufacturing processes are actually on the verge of breakthroughs.
If Xuanwu Technology does not sell it to them, it will soon make a breakthrough by concentrating their research and development efforts. In this case, it is better to take the opportunity to sell it at a good price and hit their equipment manufacturers at the same time.
This approach has indeed achieved certain results, but it is difficult to completely kill these equipment manufacturers, because they are all backed by consortiums, and their ability to resist risks is not bad.
Although the span is only from 90 nanometers to 28 nanometers this time, the technical difficulty is much higher, and it is not easy to break through. Originally, their foundation was not stable, and now they have another big leap, no matter how strong their foundation is. Not enough either.
In this way, there is no need to rush to sell equipment. No matter how fast they are, it will take at least three years to break through, and it may take more than four years to form production capacity.
During this period of time, it is enough for his companies to make a lot of money, and 28nm is a watershed. Many chips can play an important role in the 28nm process stage.
If it weren't for the advanced architecture used by Huanyu Group's on-board chips, the 90nm process would not be enough to support L3 or even L4 autonomous driving technology.
If it is forced to be manufactured, the area of the chip will be large, the power consumption will be very high, and the parts will be very large, which will seriously affect the aesthetics, and it is prone to problems and the cost is relatively high.
Leaf Book allows Xuanwu Technology to fully enter 28nm and build more 28nm factories, because the 28nm production line can be used for a long time, and there is no problem in using it for 10 years.
In this case, there is no need to slowly expand production, and the cost of the 28nm process is not too high. Before others can react, all existing chip manufacturing must be completely eliminated.
At the same time, they were also allowed to develop and manufacture 14nm process equipment.
Although the 28nm process can be used for a long time, the top chips still need to be supported by the top process so that they can be sold at a higher price.
Therefore, the production capacity of Xuanwu Technology's 28nm chips will be very large. If Qinglong Technology wants to occupy their chip production capacity, it must replace all its chips.
At present, the in-vehicle chip of Huanyu Group is also designed by Qinglong Technology Company. The main reason is that Huanyu Group does not have so many talents in its hands, and almost all the chip design talents are in the hands of Qinglong Technology Company.
In addition, Qinglong Technology Company also needs to design chips for Baihu Technology Company, and the design requirements of this type of chip will be higher, which is also a test for them.
Ye Zishu went to their chip department to have a look. The number of chip designers here is much more than before, and it has exceeded 1,000.
Although the employees are very busy and often work overtime, he took a look at their design and found that there is no major problem. They are designed in continuation of the previous structure, and with advanced design tools, there is basically no chance of error.
Then he went to the sensor research and development department of Qinglong Technology Company. Because Ye Zishu attaches great importance to sensors, Qinglong Technology Company has established a large research and development department for the development of advanced sensors.
The era of intelligence is not only the era of chips, but also the era of sensors. Once the domestic 3G mobile network coverage is completed, many intelligent applications can enter the public eye.
Nowadays, most of the intelligent applications are inside his industries, and the outside enjoys the convenience brought by intelligence, which is mainly concentrated in the software and Internet fields. The scope of intelligent hardware equipment is actually not wide.
After watching the sensor research and development department, I went to their future laboratory again. The things developed in it are weird and weird, and they are all exploratory research for the possible future technological frontiers.
For example, brain-computer interface, holographic images, robots, etc., these are not what Ye Zishu asked them to do, but the research and development projects established by Qinglong Technology Company based on its own judgment of future trends.
Their scientific research funding accounts for 10% of their revenue. If calculated based on last year's revenue of 1.3 trillion yuan, their scientific research funding scale reached more than 130 billion yuan.
Such a huge scientific research fund cannot be consumed by existing scientific research projects. It can only be invested in this kind of exploratory scientific research projects, and it may not be able to be spent.
Last year, their scientific research funds did not meet the expected consumption target, not even half of it. It was not that they did not want to spend it, but that there were not enough scientific researchers to help them spend it.
It is quite helpless to have money and not spend it. Even though they have set up a future technology laboratory, it doesn’t cost much, because many projects are not progressing fast.
Now they don't care about how much money they spend, but take this opportunity to train more high-level scientific researchers. Now college graduates, they don't have to worry about finding scientific research positions after graduation. His company is hungry for such talents.
As for other scientific research departments, Ye Zishu didn't bother to go shopping. He didn't have much interest in it. After visiting these laboratories, Ye Zishu slapped his ass and left.
Back home, Pei Qing had already returned home from get off work, Ye Zishu told Pei Qing after dinner that he was going to Xi'an tomorrow, and there were still things waiting for him there.
As a result, disaster happened at night, the two of them were extremely lingering, and after being tired, they rested for a while and started fighting again. Fortunately, he was in good health, otherwise he really couldn't bear it.
Early the next morning, he became full of energy again. After eating the breakfast prepared by Pei Qing, Pei Qing accompanied him to the airport, and only went back when he saw him board the plane.
Originally, he also wanted to visit Guo Dongsheng. He has now officially served as the president of Shengshi Records. He left Wancheng Jiye after helping Guo Dongmei busy with highway construction before.
In fact, the state supports private capital to participate in expressway construction, but the scale was small before, and many regulations were not so detailed.
Now that Wancheng Jiye plans to invest huge sums of money in highways, some ambiguities need to be clarified, otherwise it will be easy to argue in the future. During this time, the government is also actively improving policies and regulations in this regard.
The most troublesome thing is actually to communicate with the local government. Fortunately, he does not have to be responsible for such details. He only needs to reach a framework agreement and leave the rest of the details to the team.
During that time, he traveled to almost a dozen provinces, and finally negotiated a framework agreement. The total mileage of highway construction was as high as 100,000 kilometers, which surprised Ye Zishu.
He felt like he was being generalized. Seeing this number, he had the idea of overturning these agreements, because the investment was too large, and the total scale was at least 3 trillion yuan.
If so much money is invested in urbanization, it will definitely earn more money than investing in highways. In fact, building highways will not make a lot of money, and they will face continuous losses in the early stage.
After all, the number of domestic cars is still very low, and there are not so many cars passing by, so naturally they can't charge much, but Guo Dongsheng is much more confident than him.
According to Guo Dongsheng, the domestic economy has developed so fast in the past few years. After a year or two, most urban families will be able to afford cars, and the number of cars will surely exceed 100 million within five years.
And the framework agreements they signed this time, although not all good roads, but most of them are concentrated in the economically better areas in the central and eastern regions, and they will definitely make money in the future.
Moreover, if there are not enough expressways, it will be difficult for Huanyu Group to sell so many cars in China. To develop the automobile industry, it is necessary to build better roads.
Moreover, this framework agreement lasts for 10 years. If funds are tight, only 300 billion yuan needs to be invested every year. For him, this is really not a big problem.
However, Guo Dongsheng believes that if the domestic traffic conditions can keep up with the pace of economic development, and at the same time want to vigorously develop Huanyu Group's automobiles, this plan needs to be shortened to about 5 years to complete.
Although he was very upset, he also agreed with Guo Dongsheng's statement that as long as the domestic per capita monthly salary reaches 5,000 yuan, the potential of the domestic market will be fully activated, and the consumer side will explode with huge energy.
This year, his average monthly salary is controlled at 2,000 yuan, and next year he plans to raise the average monthly salary to 4,000 yuan, not because he has a lot of money, but to activate the domestic market as soon as possible.
Now that he is heavily dependent on the international market, he is always worried. Only when the domestic market expands, many industries will be more stable. For this reason, he needs to raise wages for employees at a faster rate.
He can't manage other companies. He can only manage his own company. He can increase the salaries of employees to 4,000 yuan, which is still affordable for his industries and will not have a big impact.
The financial report for the first quarter of his business has come out. Except for the new business, the previous business has seen a relatively high growth rate, with an average growth rate of 30%.
In addition to the continued strength of the overseas market, the performance of the domestic market has impressed him. The contribution rate of the domestic market has increased by 10% year-on-year. It can be seen that increasing wages for employees has an immediate effect.
It is also based on this expectation that Ye Zishu allows Wancheng Foundation to take appropriate loans for expressway construction to solve the problem of insufficient funds.
In the future, he will invest 600 billion yuan in the construction of expressways every year. If there is not enough part, Wancheng Foundation can borrow money on its own. Bank loans are still very easy for such fixed asset investment.
The main reason is that the loan ratio is not high, and the repayment pressure is not too great. Moreover, the loan is only three years later, because many projects have entered a critical period at that time, and the capital consumption is relatively large.
Looking at the airport in the distance, Ye Zishu shook off his thoughts and began to think about the things in Xi'an. This time, Baihu Technology Company mainly manufactured the navigation satellites in the past.
He needs to go over and have a look to confirm, and then arrange the launch mission, using an old-fashioned domestic rocket. As for the new rocket, it will take a month or two to wait.
