Chapter 545 The Prism Gate breaks out! (Please vote for me)

"When Qualcomm chips go up to 1,400, or even more expensive, the money you make from selling a domestic mobile phone is not as much as the money Qualcomm makes from one chip."
"Similarly, in the future, Samsung's A-screen monopoly on the high-end screen market will rise to thousands of dollars, and they will make more money than mobile phone manufacturers."
"And we, the mobile phone manufacturers, are just wage earners who help Samsung and Qualcomm make money."
Everyone's expressions darkened, but they had to admit that this was very possible.
Qualcomm and Samsung have a monopoly on high-end components and have pricing power!
Wang Yi continued:
"If domestic companies want to change this status quo, get rid of their status as wage earners, want to make more profits, and want to keep all the profits in the country and leave them to domestic companies, they must make a comprehensive breakthrough! Like Xingyi Technology, we can realize chip autonomy.
Research, and even self-produced chips, so that the profits of the chips can be retained in China."
"We must also achieve breakthroughs in high-end screens like Samsung and keep hundreds of dollars of screen profits in China."
"There are also lens modules, etc. If you want to make more money, you have to break through them one by one."
Everyone nodded, this is indeed how it should be!
"Only by achieving a comprehensive domestic breakthrough and fully replacing European, American, Japanese and Korean giants can we keep profits in the country, get rid of our status as workers for foreign giants, and stop helping them make money and start making money for ourselves."
Wang Yi continued: "Then the problem is, once we make breakthroughs in domestic production, completely replace the components of international giants, and keep profits in the country, then international giants such as Qualcomm, Samsung, Sony, etc. will have less profits and less income.
Some giants will even go bankrupt."
"The reason is simple. The cake is limited. The more we eat, the more they lose, and they will eventually starve to death and go bankrupt."
"Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea cannot accept this."
"To this end, they will launch a technological war to completely block us, suppress us, and contain our rise."
"Let us continue to be their wage earners, continue to make money for them and help them work."
"For this reason, they will use various means to suppress us."
"For example, a chip company has achieved a technological breakthrough and developed excellent mobile phone chips, which are manufactured in large quantities by TSMC. The company's chip performance surpasses Qualcomm, and the price is cheaper than Qualcomm and Samsung. As a result, it has grabbed a large number of customers and customers from Qualcomm and Samsung.
Orders and huge profits.”
"As for Qualcomm and Samsung, both their order volume and profits have plummeted, and they have suffered heavy losses."
"This made Qualcomm very angry and began to suppress the chip company!"
"But in legitimate business competition, if they are not opponents, what will they do?"
A professor at the scene spoke:
"If you can't beat head-on competition, they will use special means."
"Yes, this is the other party's typical routine, which has been tried and tested repeatedly.
After a period of investigation, they will use trumped-up charges to ban the domestic chip company and restrict TSMC, Samsung, Intel and other companies from manufacturing for them!"
“Without OEM, no matter how powerful the chips developed by the domestic chip giant are, they cannot be mass-produced, and they will be completely ruined.
It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.”
"..."
The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat depressing, and everyone fell into silence.
But some people also question:
"Will they be so messy? And TSMC, will Samsung listen?"
Wang Yi smiled: "I think everyone knows whether they will act recklessly. Such things happen all the time."
"As for TSMC, will Samsung listen? That's for sure. Even TSMC uses a lot of core technologies from the United States. If it dares not to listen, they can sanction TSMC together. As for Samsung, let alone the major shareholders.
It’s the American imperial consortium.”
Everyone nodded, and Wang Yi continued: "In order to change this situation and break through the blockade, the company worked hard and invested all the money earned from other businesses into the research and development of chip production processes, the construction of wafer factories, and the purchase of equipment..."
"Huangtian has paid off. Finally, the chip company has achieved self-production of high-end chips."
"Even if TSMC, Samsung, and Intel don't provide OEM services, the chip company can develop and produce it on its own!"
Everyone at the scene laughed and suddenly realized: "This certain company is none other than Xingyi Technology!"
"Yes, only Xingyi Technology has realized the 28nm process and can mass-produce 28nm chips, otherwise it will not be able to withstand this kind of ban!"
"Yes, Xingyi Semiconductor has achieved self-development and production of 28-nanometer chips. It has made breakthroughs in 28-nanometer packaging and testing technology. It is difficult to block it."
Wang Yi sighed: "The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny."
"This company has achieved self-development and self-production of 28-nanometer chips. Seeing that it cannot block the chip production process, will it bow its head and admit defeat? Will it give up the blockade?"
"No, absolutely not!"
"On the contrary, they will intensify their efforts."
"Since chip R&D and chip mass production cannot be blocked by each other, they will turn to blocking at the wafer level, such as blocking large silicon wafer channels!"
"The simplest, 12-inch large silicon wafer is the basic material for 12-inch wafer fabs and the basic material for chip production."
"At present, we are not able to produce 12-inch large silicon wafers by ourselves. We can only import them from Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea."
"Once the other party blocks 12-inch large silicon wafers, not only will the company's chips be unable to be produced, but all 12-inch wafer fabs will have to shut down!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, and the atmosphere became extremely depressing.
This kind of thing happens too easily.
Once the technology war starts and once 12-inch large silicon wafers are banned, all the wafer factories in the mainland will be in trouble.
Wang Yi continued: "However, the company still refuses to admit defeat and continues to invest heavily in research and development."
"Although large silicon wafer technology is difficult, after several years of research and development, we have made a breakthrough and achieved self-production of large silicon wafers. We have once again broken the blockade and continued to conduct self-research and production of high-end chips."
"But Europe and the United States will not give up. Seeing that large silicon wafers cannot be blocked, they will continue to increase their efforts and block photoresists. We also have a technological blank for the high-end photoresists required for the 28-nanometer process and are completely dependent on imports."
At this moment, everyone in the entire conference room frowned.
Breakthroughs in these high-precision industries are very difficult.
Otherwise, it would not be in a blank state until now.
Wang Yi sighed and continued: "Even in a few years, our high-end photoresist will have a breakthrough, and there will be a ban on EDA industrial software later."
"Once the other party imposes restrictions on EDA industrial software, our chip production will also have to stop."
"This thing is very critical. We are all using European and American EDA industrial software. If they want to stop licensing us, we will be in trouble. There is no doubt about it."
"To this end, we are also developing EDA industrial software and trying to make breakthroughs."
"Even if photoresist and EDA industrial software have achieved breakthroughs and have been domestically produced, they still have a big killer - photolithography machines. They restrict us from importing high-end photolithography machines."
"At this step, Xingyi Technology is really helpless."
"Lithography machines, tens of thousands of upstream and downstream industry chains, each is a cutting-edge industry. No matter how powerful Xingyi Technology is, it is not a god. It cannot deploy all tens of thousands of cutting-edge industries and make them all reach the world's first-class level."
"This is a myth, something that is simply impossible for a company to do."
"So, once the other party launches a technological war and completely blocks us, it will be difficult for us to resist."
"For this reason, we can only stock up on some photolithography machines in advance."
"But unfortunately, what we buy now are old DUV lithography machines. The latest 1970i lithography machines are difficult to buy. These old lithography machines can be used at 28 nanometers and 20 nanometers, but in the future we will reach 10 nanometers.
Below, it won’t be used.”
"If you want to achieve 7 nanometers, you need multiple exposure technology and the latest 1970i lithography machine."
"In other words, the lithography machines we buy now can support the 10-nanometer process at most. In five or six years, Europe and the United States will enter the node below 7 nanometers. By that time, we will still be behind."
"To reach 7 nanometers, unless we achieve a breakthrough in domestic high-end DUV lithography machines. If we want to achieve cutting-edge processes below 7 nanometers, we need to break through EUV lithography machines. Otherwise, we have no chance of winning."
"But whether it is a high-end DUV lithography machine or an EUV lithography machine, it is not something that one company can do. Even so far, no country can do it alone."
"So it is difficult for us to win this technological war. The most we can do is adopt a series of countermeasures and make the other party pay a heavy price."
Wang Yiyue said, his face became more solemn.
The expressions of the people in the room were extremely complicated.
How could they not know that Wang Yi was not an alarmist at all.
But there is a real problem!
Mr. Zhao said: "Dr. Wang, how do you think we can achieve breakthroughs in high-end DUV lithography machines and EUV lithography machines?"
Wang Yi replied: "There are tens of thousands of high-precision industries in lithography machines. If you want to make a breakthrough, you need two major prerequisites."
“The first major premise requires the entire industry chain!”
"At this point, we are the only one with the entire industry chain."
"But the entire industry chain is just the beginning. There is also a second major prerequisite, which is tens of thousands of upstream and downstream industry chains, many of which are high-precision industries. They must be fully deployed and even lead the industry."
"Especially for EUV lithography machines, only Zeiss can currently produce the optical lenses required, and no one else can achieve it. There is also EUV photoresist, which only Neon can currently produce."
"And if we want to catch up, we can only lay out the entire industry chain and make breakthroughs in the entire industry chain!"
"Only if all the tens of thousands of upstream and downstream industrial chains reach the top level in the world."
"This technological war is inevitable and will even happen soon."
"And we, Xingyi Technology, are the first target that the other party wants to kill."
"But no matter how hard the other side blocks and blocks us, we will never give up easily, let alone bow our heads."
"On the contrary, we will work hard and fight to the end."
"They blocked it, so we invested heavily in research and development to make breakthroughs!"
"Whether it's high-end chip technology, large silicon wafers, high-end photoresist, or EDA software, we are all laying out and investing heavily in a series of research and development."
"Although there are long obstacles ahead, in the long run, as long as we persevere, there is always hope for a breakthrough."
"But the field of photolithography machines is really too difficult and we can't do it."
"Okay, this report ends here. Thank you all leaders for your support."
After Wang Yi finished speaking, there was a burst of applause.
Just a crowd of people applauding and feeling a lot of emotion at the same time.
Work hard and fight to the end!
Everyone in the room was very moved by this man.
But Wang Yi said that the photolithography machine is too difficult to do...
It puts a lot of pressure on everyone in the room.
Mr. Zhao walked up to the stage and said: "Thank you, Director Wang, for giving me a speech on science and technology war. Everyone has a clear understanding of all the issues that Director Wang mentioned, and we also have a clear judgment on the future situation."
"The situation is not optimistic, even very dangerous!"
Everyone spoke one after another:
"Once the technology war starts, giants like Xingyi Technology can be blocked, let alone other companies?"
"Xingyi Technology can't handle it, and all our domestic companies are unable to compete."
"The technological war is the most terrifying thing. Even if Mr. Wang doesn't say anything, we are still complacent and feel that we are stronger."
"If you don't worry about the future, you will have to worry about the immediate future. This lecture was so good that it woke us all up."
"Yes, the speech on science and technology war shocked me as much as the Gulf War did to us!"
Seeing that everyone realized the seriousness of the situation, Mr. Zhao was very satisfied:
"Director Wang, when do you think the technological war will begin?"
Wang Yi sighed: "If nothing else happens, it will start in 2015-2016. Next year we will be internationalized, and the Xingyi mobile phone will be launched globally, which will inevitably impact Apple. The self-developed and self-produced Kunpeng processors will rise in an all-round way, and will inevitably impact Qualcomm and Nvidia.
."
"The three core giants of the other side are all attacked by us. I estimate that they will take action against us in 2015 at the latest. Someone will raise the threat theory of Xingyi Technology, and then the Ministry of Commerce will investigate. That will be the beginning of the technology war."
"After the investigation results are released, the crackdown will officially begin in 2016."
"So fast?"
Everyone's expression changed.
Everyone thought there was still five or six years of preparation time.
But now you tell me, it’s only been two or three years!
This is too fast.
Wang Yi sighed: "It's so fast. Our only hope is that they will step up their game and we will take advantage of them. We can still compete in the early stage, but in the later stage, if we want to completely resist or even win the technological war, we still need light."
A breakthrough in engraving."
Mr. Zhao nodded: "Do you understand everything? Do you understand it? The lithography machine is a big problem and is also the core of this technological war!"
"If the lithography machine breaks through, we will win and even defeat the European and American semiconductor giants."
"If we can't break through, sooner or later we will fall behind and be killed by European and American giants!"
"In order to win the technology war, I hereby promise that the Ministry of Science and Technology will go all out to break through the lithography machine!"
"Each department, whether it is a research institute or the National Defense University, must allocate cutting-edge forces to carry out lithography machine research!"
“The Ministry of Science and Technology takes the lead!”
"spare no effort!"
“Within six years, we will break through the high-end DUV lithography machine comparable to ASML’s 1970i!”
"A breakthrough in EUV lithography machines within twelve years!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded one after another, feeling a lot of pressure, but they also understood that this was a battle of technology.
It is also a battle for national destiny!
There are not many of them left in the crown jewels of European and American industry.
EUV lithography machine is the top priority!
Seeing this, Wang Yi was in a good mood.
This time, the Ministry of Science and Technology takes the lead personally, so this matter is stable!
'However, it would be better if the big funds changed their model and spent money themselves!'
Wang Yi sighed in his heart.
In previous lives, a lot of money from big funds was wasted.
Not enough output.
Many companies are typical of subsidy fraud, which is so shameless.
Rather than doing this, it is better to cut these subsidies and invest them in areas such as photolithography machines.
That would be better.
Seeing Wang Yi thoughtful, Mr. Zhao smiled and said: "Dr. Wang, do you have any other suggestions for the development of photolithography machines? But it doesn't hurt!"
"But it doesn't matter..." Wang Yi hesitated, whether he should say this...
Not to mention other big funds, many units and leaders here are keeping an eye on them.
As soon as Wang Yi opened his mouth and cut off everyone's subsidies, he would offend others.
But for the sake of the overall situation.
In order to achieve breakthroughs in photolithography machines, Wang Yi decided to offend others:
"Mr. Zhao, did I really say that?"
"But it doesn't matter!"
"That's right, I know everything I know and can tell you everything."
Several other big guys also smiled and spoke.
Wang Yi nodded and said solemnly:
"Lithography machines involve tens of thousands of upstream and downstream industries, which all require layout and research and development. The research and development funds are astronomical!"
"And other fields such as the military also need to continue to burn money."
Everyone nodded. Everything requires money. It is difficult to squeeze out a huge sum of money to develop photolithography machines.
"For this reason, I suggest that this money should come from the large semiconductor fund!" Wang Yi changed the subject:
"The previous large funds mainly subsidized semiconductor R&D companies and chip manufacturing companies. It is better to change this model, reduce subsidies in these two aspects, and invest more funds in the research and development of high-end DUV lithography machines and EUV lithography machines!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed and their expressions became very exciting.
This is a big deal.
Big funds, so many companies are eyeing them.
Wang Yi said, massive cuts and investment in photolithography machines...
The companies that are eyeing big funds are collectively drinking the northwest wind.
But it is a great thing for the village.
You can now have more funds to develop photolithography machines!
Mr. Zhao couldn't help but say: "Director Wang, Xingyi Semiconductor has broken through the 28nm process. You are the key subsidy target of the big fund and the biggest beneficiary. Once the subsidy model is changed, you will lose the most!"
Wang Yi smiled faintly: "It's okay, you have to make a choice. As long as the lithography machine can be fully developed and make breakthroughs as soon as possible, we are willing to suffer these losses. At worst, we will fully internationalize next year to earn foreign exchange and subsidize Xingyi Semiconductor's research and development."
"Hahaha! There is a pattern!" Mr. Zhao extended his thumb.
No one else had anything to say.
Xingyi Technology, a major subsidizer, is willing to reduce subsidies and invest in photolithography machines. Other institutions will suffer less losses. What can be said?
Everything is for the breakthrough of photolithography machine!
But the most tragic thing is those companies that want to cheat on subsidies.
"Okay, I will propose this matter and thank Director Wang again!"
Afterwards, the speech on science and technology war came to an end, and everyone was filled with emotion.
Wang Yi left at this point.
But many people have started rounds of high-end meetings to make decisions.
The next day, Mr. Zhao even summoned senior officials to study the reform of large funds, which once again caused an uproar:
"Unexpectedly, really unexpectedly, Director Wang is willing to take the initiative to cut subsidies and invest them all in lithography machines! Look at the overall situation!"
"Yes, Xingyi Technology is so awesome. If it had been anyone else, I would have asked for more subsidies. How can I propose to reduce subsidies?"
"Director Wang took the initiative, and we naturally had to support it. After all, photolithography machines cost too much money, and more investment is indeed needed."
"However, Director Wang took the initiative to propose it because of his own righteousness. We cannot let Xingyi Semiconductor feel cold. Subsidies from large funds must be reformed, but the subsidies given to Xingyi Semiconductor cannot be too small."
"Yes, you can't bully honest people, let alone honest people who have made outstanding contributions."
"Let's do this, the subsidy method remains unchanged, but the subsidy threshold is raised."
"The original plan has too low a threshold. Anyone who makes any breakthrough can receive subsidies. This is inappropriate and a complete waste of money. I suggest that the threshold be raised across the board, and only subsidies will be given if there are outstanding breakthroughs and significant results!"
"Yes, for example, subsidies for wafer fabs. The original plan was to subsidize 10% for 65-nanometer wafer fabs, 20% for 55-nanometer wafer fabs, 30% for 45-nanometer wafer fabs, and 35% for 40-nanometer wafer fabs.
50% subsidy for 28nm wafer fabs.”
"I suggest comprehensive reform and halve the subsidy for low-end fabs. The subsidy for 65-nanometer fabs is 5%, the subsidy for 55-nm fabs is 10%, the subsidy for 45-nm fabs is 15%, and the subsidy for 40-nm fabs is 20%.
, 28nm wafer fab...as a high-end process, continue to subsidize 50%!"
"In a word, subsidies are still available, but they are difficult to get. If you want to get high subsidies, you have to increase investment in research and development and improve technology."
"There is nothing wrong with cutting low-end and supporting high-end. In addition, more cutting-edge breakthroughs must be encouraged. I suggest adding 20nm and above wafer factories and directly subsidizing 70%!"
"This can encourage Xingyi Semiconductor to break through the 20nm process as soon as possible."
"I also support it. If Xingyi Technology really breaks through the 20-nanometer process, it will reach the top in the world, and a subsidy of 70% will not be excessive."
"Yes, this reform plan is very good. Whether it is chip production or chip R&D, the threshold will be raised, low-end subsidies will be cut, and low-end subsidies will be shifted to lithography machine R&D! High-end subsidies will remain the same, and we will continue to encourage leading companies to make breakthroughs in R&D!"
"The reduced subsidies will not only be invested in photolithography machines, but also in photoresists, large silicon wafers, EDA industrial software, etc."
"Well said, I suggest launching a special subsidy, called monopoly-breaking subsidy. As long as we break the monopoly of Europe, America, Japan and South Korea and fill the gaps in domestic production, we will provide subsidies and rewards!"
"You can have this!"
“This is a must!”
Everyone supported it, but some people also raised objections:
"According to this reform, the subsidies of SMIC and Huahong will be greatly reduced, while the subsidies of Xingyi Technology will be too much!"
"What's the point? We are not biased towards Xingyi Technology. We are completely biased towards high-end craftsmanship, cutting-edge technological breakthroughs and monopoly breakthroughs. All companies are treated equally. Xingyi Technology gets more because they have the ability!"
"Yes, other companies have this ability and can get the most subsidies."
"Every time we break an international monopoly and achieve a zero-to-one breakthrough, it has great strategic significance. We must have more subsidies and more rewards."
"There are more capable people, so there is no problem. Moreover, this model will also encourage other companies to work harder on research and development instead of messing around!"
"Okay, then according to this proposal, we will raise the subsidy threshold, maintain high-end subsidies, reduce mid- and low-end subsidies, and invest all the free funds in the research and development of lithography machines. We will also establish a special subsidy for monopoly breakthroughs to reward cutting-edge technologies and breakthroughs in international monopolies.
enterprise!"
"Let's vote on this next..."
Without any surprise, zero people opposed the plan, three people abstained, and the rest all supported it, and it passed smoothly!
Subsequently, relevant departments immediately began to formulate new reform plans for large funds.
Wang Yi knew nothing about this, so he came to Xingyi Semiconductor R&D Center.
He approached Mr. Hu with a complicated expression: "Mr. Hu, there is something I have to tell you. I feel sorry for you!"
"What's wrong, Chairman?" Mr. Hu was puzzled.
Wang Yi will tell you everything about the proposed reforms:
"Originally, the first company supported by big funds was Xingyi Semiconductor, and we were able to receive horrific subsidies."
"But in order to develop lithography machines, I took the initiative to propose subsidy reform, cut all subsidies, and invest in the research and development of lithography machines. In this way, we will lose the most in subsidies..."
"This matter..." Mr. Hu sighed: "Director Wang, I can understand. Without a lithography machine, everything is empty talk. No matter how much subsidies we get, it will be useless. Only when the lithography machine breaks through can we be absolutely
Safe. I support your decision! Fully support it!”
"That's good." Wang Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "But don't worry, although the subsidies from big funds are less, Xingyi Technology's subsidies for you are sufficient. Even though research and development is about giving money to people and giving people to people!"
"Okay, Chairman, with your words, I feel relieved."
Mr. Hu was in a good mood: "But there is a problem, the photolithography machine will cost more!"
"Oh? The price of ASML has increased? Just increase the price. There is no other way. Just ship more." Wang Yi was a little helpless.
"It's not that the price has increased, it's that we purchased more. I talked to the senior management of ASML. They were also worried that exports would be restricted in the future, so they agreed to give us priority in selling us a batch of 1970i lithography machines and 1965ci lithography machines.
!”
"1970i and 1965ci!" Wang Yi was overjoyed: "Good thing, great thing!"
Previous old-model lithography machines, even with multiple exposure technology, could reach up to 10 nanometers.
If you want to reach 7nm, at least 1970i.
Of course, 1965ci is also possible. After all, 1965ci and 1970i are very close and have similar technologies.
As for older models, ASML will have to upgrade them before they can be used to produce the 7nm process.
For example, TSMC and Samsung's lithography machines were purchased early, and they are all old models. With ASML's subsequent upgrades, the accuracy will be improved to rival new models.
There is no way, a lithography machine is so expensive and costs so much, it cannot be lost like a mobile phone after a few years of use...
You can only pay ASML to upgrade it so that it can be comparable to the new lithography machine and continue to serve.
In fact, 1970i and the subsequent 1980i are all upgraded versions of those old lithography machines.
"Buy, 1965ci, 1970i, whatever the other party gives us is what we want." Wang Yixiao said, "Even if the price is more expensive, we have to buy more!"
"Okay, Chairman." Mr. Hu agreed.
"By the way, let's buy some of Nikon's high-end photolithography machines. Although they are not as good as ASML, they are still usable, especially the high-end ones." Wang Yi changed the subject.
Wang Yi doesn’t like Nikon’s old photolithography machines.
But a new lithography machine that is comparable to 1965ci and 1970i is a must-buy.
"Okay!" Mr. Hu agreed.
Wang Yi said again: "Funds are not a problem. Although the subsidies from big funds may be reduced, we are still the first. The group will make up for the lack of funds. The entire Xingyi Technology, even if it is selling iron, has to subsidize you.
We must also make breakthroughs in the 14nm process as soon as possible and build 14nm wafer fabs and production lines!"
Mr. Hu was filled with emotion: "Don't worry, Chairman, Xingyi Semiconductor will definitely achieve mass production of 14nm chips in 2015!"
"Yes!" Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction.
The Ministry of Science and Technology is very efficient.
Soon, the first draft of the big fund’s subsidy reform plan was produced.
High-level meetings were held one after another.
The Ministry of Science and Technology took the lead and allocated funds from large funds, and the layout of the entire industry chain of lithography machines quickly began.
Relevant cutting-edge institutions and enterprises, each performing their own duties, have been tasked with conducting targeted research and development.
Everything is unfolding in full swing.
Many R&D personnel are very concerned about this and go all out.
There are also some core points in participating in the technology war speech, which is to understand the situation clearly and work hard to improve.
Of course, some people think that worries are unfounded, or think that photolithography machines are too difficult, and still have a negative attitude.
I can only say that this world is like this, everyone has it.
There are even some academicians who feel that Wang Yi's remarks on science and technology war are a bit alarmist.
Some people think that money should be spent wisely.
Projection lithography machines and semiconductors are not cost-effective and have low priority.
It is better to invest everything in the military field.
There are even people taking the lead in opposing Wang Yi’s remarks on technology war and semiconductor investment...
Wang Yi was helpless about this.
Before the technological war officially started, many people did not take it seriously.
Everything he could do, he did.
The rest can only be left to fate.
However, what Wang Yi didn't know was that on this day, Sideng checked into a hotel on Hong Kong Island.
He was extremely uneasy and felt that everything around him was being monitored.
To this end, he used pillows to block the cracks in the door to prevent eavesdropping.
Then he opened the laptop and quickly closed it.
Panicking, he took out a big red cloth to cover his notebook, and then used another big red cloth to cover his head.
Then I carefully opened my notebook and entered my password...
He didn't dare to make any sound, feeling that everything was unsafe...
Especially after he was interviewed by a reporter from the Guardian and disclosed top-secret information about the Prism Project, he felt that there was a crisis everywhere and everyone was monitoring...
He knew that foreign media had already started reporting!
The Prism Gate outbreak will soon cause a global sensation!
At the same time, several academicians and experts gathered together to condemn Wang Yi:
"Wang Yi knows how to be alarmist!"
"What kind of technological war? It's just for selfish desires and delays the overall situation!"
"That's right. If Xingyi Semiconductor is doing well, they will ask the Ministry of Science and Technology to increase investment in semiconductors, and they will also need hundreds of billions of dollars to develop lithography machines!"
"Isn't this a joke?"
"A DUV lithography machine is so complex, how much does it cost and how many years does it take to build it?"
"And even if a DUV lithography machine is really produced in six years, what will it be of use? ASML's EUV lithography machine has now been developed to the fourth generation. I heard that it will be commercialized next year. I don't know where it will develop in six years."
The situation!"
"Yes, the future is dominated by EUV lithography machines. We are only developing DUV lithography machines now. What is the future? Isn't this a pure waste of resources and money?"
"Hundreds of billions. How good would it be if it were spent in other areas? It will definitely bring out higher value."
"But what about Wang Yi? If you insist on investing in semiconductors, you talk about technological war, and you are banned. Do you think when did they ban us? It's completely unfounded and unfounded!"
Chapter completed!
