Technological Supremacy Chapter 323: Semiconductor business from scratch
Just as Luo Jia hung up Wang Liguo's video call, An Ran walked into his office with a smile and said to Luo Jia, "You were in contact with Lao Wang just now?"
"Yeah, ask him about the situation in Europe."
"How is the situation? Should the piranhas in Lake Constance be cleaned up?"
Luo Jia thought for a while, "The trend of the spread of piranhas has been brought under control. As for the complete cleanup, it remains to be seen. After all, the lake is huge, and no one can guarantee that there will be no fish that slipped through the net."
"Seeing how happy you are today, have you made any new progress?"
An Ran stretched her waist and said: "You guessed it right, our passive component project has officially ended the laboratory stage. If you think there is no problem, then start the engineering stage."
Luo Jia was slightly taken aback, and excitedly said, "The passive components have come out? This is a great thing, let's go, let's go and have a look."
The two left the main building and went to the laboratory.
It is now June, and the sun is getting hotter and hotter. As the temperature rises, the country's electricity consumption is also increasing rapidly.
"It is said on the Internet that electricity prices will drop by another 10 cents after July 1st. Is this true?" An Ran set up a pergola, glanced at the big sun in the sky, and asked Luo Jia.
Luo Jia said, "It seems that the national team intends to do so, but you also know that after a power generation array is built, for safety reasons, it will take several months to half a year of operation before the power department will officially accept it."
"Considering that the peak period of residents' electricity consumption has arrived, if the electricity price can be lowered before summer, the common people will definitely welcome it. However, in that case, the trial operation time must be shortened and the power generation device shall be inspected in advance. There are some risks. .”
Back then, An Ran lived by the sea for several months for new energy projects. He was very familiar with the process and followed rules in everything. In a hurry, some people in the authorities were too impatient to claim credit.
In any case, a sharp drop in electricity prices is always a good thing that the common people like to see, and it has an extremely far-reaching effect on promoting the economy.
In fact, the power generation project of the national team does not make money, and it would be good to be able to break even. However, the low price of electricity makes everyone feel happy, and at the same time, the development of industry and commerce increases taxes, which is a bit east and west. bright meaning.
Not long after, Luo Jia saw many small things of various shapes in the electrical laboratory. They were placed on trays with test numbers written on them.
Simply put, passive components are the general term for products such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, filters, couplers, and harmonics.
All electronic components that do not consume electric energy themselves, can convert electric energy into different forms of energy, only need input signals, and can work normally without external power supply, all belong to the category of passive components.
In the entire field of technology, passive components are widely used. If you have disassembled electronic products such as mobile phones or computers, you will find that in addition to chips and caches, there are many densely packed ants on the circuit board. Small things, those are passive components.
Luo Jia took the tweezers, picked up one of the trays, and watched it carefully under the light, then put the small thing down, and took out her Huawei foldable phone, shook it in front of An Ran's eyes and said, "You know this How many do you use in a mobile phone?"
An Ran shook her head.
Luo Jia said, "Mr. Yu told me that 739 neon lights from Murata Company were used in it. You know, this is just a mobile phone, and more are used in computers. Don't look at this thing. Small, but the annual sales are 22 billion U.S. dollars."
An Ran scratched her hair helplessly. Passive components consume a lot in China, and the output is also huge, but there are still a few important categories that have been unable to reach the international first-class level.
For example, what Luo Jia just said is the big shortcoming in the field of passive components in my country.
The Chinese name of the chip multilayer ceramic capacitor, ceramic capacitor and aluminum capacitor are currently monopolized by Japan and South Korea. Neon Murata and South Korea's Samsung account for 52% of the global market share. The third place is Yageo of Wanwan Province, with a market share of 13%, followed by Neon Taiyo Yuden, TDK and other manufacturers.
An Ran complained, "If it's not impossible, we really don't want to engage in passive components. There are no helpers."
Luo Jia didn't say anything. Semiconductors are different from all the fields involved in Star Technology. Take electric vehicles as an example. Although Huaxia is not too strong, it is also a big player in electric vehicles. For several key technologies, Xingchen Technology will help make up for the technical shortcomings, and this industry will be able to become competitive and grow rapidly.
And semiconductors are different, definitely different!
The problem facing Xingchen Technology now is that this industry has to do everything by itself from the beginning to the end. Not only do they have no production machines, but they don't even have such small things as passive components.
"Come on a little bit." Luo Jia said to An Ran: "Since the laboratory stage is over, let Xingchen Electric send people over immediately to start the engineering and trial production stage."
An Ran added: "Star Chemical also wants to come in. The upstream raw materials such as resistance paste, conductive paste, and ruthenium paste need several lines from Star Chemical."
Luo Jia was speechless for a moment. Not to mention An Ran, he almost forgot. So far, the upstream materials of high-end passive components are also monopolized by giants, and Xingchen Technology needs to do it by itself. Fortunately, Luo Jia has a family Super subsidiary, Xingchen Chemical.
After continuous mergers and reorganizations, Xingchen Chemical has tens of thousands of employees, second only to chemical giants such as BASF in Germany, DuPont in North America, and Neon Shin-Etsu.
In other words, the subsidiary of Star Technology also has the combat effectiveness of the world's top 500.
"Then let Xingchen Chemical join in." Luo Jia made a decision, "How big is the final scale we have determined?"
An Ran said with a wry smile, "We need at least six kinds of raw materials in the upstream, and more than a thousand types of passive components in the downstream. Xingchen Electric opened a production line, which is not counting the processing machinery for passive components."
"What a **** trouble." Luo Jia muttered.
"That's right." An Ran said, "The smaller the thing, the more troublesome it is, and passive components are not even the core area of the semiconductor field, but peripheral accessories."
"Semiconductors are really troublesome. Seniors Zhang Yuechuan and Lu Chengfeng have been engaged in research on lithography machines for several years. Recently, there is a generation of super talented Wen Chengling joining, and there is still no end in sight."
"There is also material science, Ji Ming and his group, known as the first basic science team of Xingchen Technology, since they knew that you want to make vinyl materials as the next generation semiconductor substrate, they have gone crazy and are under the greatest pressure It is my junior brother Cao Yuan, after all, his major is graphene, and it is quite difficult to go to Anbang. The superconducting material he is in charge of is the key technology of the bottom channel of the next generation computing system."
Luo Jia listened to An Ran's words, although the hardware department hadn't produced any results for a long time, but the interior was extremely busy.
In the field of semiconductors, Luo Jia's strategy has been ineffective. The problem he is facing now is that ~IndoMTL.com~ can't find a reliable partner like Huawei, and almost everything has to be done by himself. .
The reason why Xingchen Technology develops so fast is that most of the products are not made by Xingchen Technology itself, but come up with technology and ask partners to make it. If the technical level is not enough, we can help them Technology upgrade.
Hey~
Luo Jia sighed and said: "This little thing of passive components is too much trouble, we try not to make it ourselves, we should find a few partners, otherwise it will involve too much energy, there are currently four major passive component factories in China , namely Yuyang, Fenghua Hi-Tech, Sanhuan, and Torch."
"Although the output and technical level of the four of them are very low, we have no better choice at present. I will ask Hong Tao's business department to contact them when I go back."
An Ran nodded, "That's fine, at worst we can help them upgrade their technology."
The matter was decided in this way. After Luo Jia went back, he called Hong Tao and asked him to arrange cooperation in the field of passive components.
"That's no problem." Hong Tao said, "We are the toughest group of men in the technology industry, and factories like Yuyang must have the opportunity to cooperate with us. However, once the news gets out, it will be considered an official announcement. .”
The whole world has guessed that Xingchen Technology is going to engage in semiconductors in the next step, but guesses are guesswork. Xingchen Technology itself has not officially announced, and all projects are still in pre-research in the laboratory, and some complex projects are even under planning. stage.
"It doesn't matter, whoever wants to know will know." Luo Jia said lightly, "You go and find the heads of the four companies first, and I want to talk to them in person."
