Chapter 1351 Shenzhen Microelectronics Base

One day in mid-August, Zou Jiahua, Minister of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry, came to Shenzhen in person, accompanied by the directors of the Department of Microelectronics and Basic Products, the Director of the Computer Department, and a team of more than 8 experts.

Unlike Hu Qilai last time, Minister Zou did not visit Tianyin Group this time. He just drove around several industrial areas in Shenzhen and went directly to Shenzhen Science and Technology Park.

The restart of Shenzhen Science and Technology Park is currently underway.

When the Shenzhen Science and Technology Park was first established, SZ City and the Chinese Academy of Sciences set up several research and development departments here. However, due to the lack of follow-up work, especially the lack of funds, the science and technology park experts withdrew one after another, leaving only some abandoned buildings. , and even the entire park is covered with weeds.

In order to restart the Science Park, Mayor Li Hao has also done a series of work. After receiving the sponsorship of 1 million yuan from Tianyin Group, the civil engineering of the Science Park has started. According to the plan, the entire Science Park covers an area of ​​500 square meters km, divided into 11.5 areas, including electronic information, integrated circuits, biomedicine, and material energy.

Among them, the integrated circuit area has the largest area, accounting for almost 1/3 of the entire park. The SZ municipal engineering team has conducted surveys and plans for this area, and the next step is to build a 5-storey high-tech building here. Around the building, a series of offices and laboratories are built for various scientific research institutes.

Duan Yun did not meet Minister Zou himself. In fact, the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry already knew the situation of Tianyin Electronics Factory very well. Considering that Tianyin Group is a private enterprise, they cannot easily interfere with their normal production work, so They didn't come this time.

Despite this, Duan Yun soon got good news. He learned from an acquaintance at the city government that the leaders of the SZ city government and the Ministry of Mechanical and Electronic Industry held a meeting after visiting the science and technology park, and the meeting ended After that, the municipal government and the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry quickly reached an agreement. The Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry will draw relevant technical personnel from 27 scientific research institutions under the country, and set up a microelectronics base in Shenzhen Science and Technology Park before the end of this year. It also makes Shenzhen the fourth microelectronics industry base in China after BJ and Shanghai Wuxi.

After Duan Yun got the news, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

For outsiders, they may not understand the significance of setting up a microelectronics base in Shenzhen, but for Duan Yun, this means that his Tianyin Electronics finally has the opportunity to achieve seamless integration with domestic scientific research institutes. butt.

Duan Yun originally planned to sign contracts with these scientific research institutes. However, the related laboratories and other buildings in the science and technology park have not yet been completed. It may not be until the end of the year that these scientific research institutes can move in one after another. Duan Yun still needs to wait a few months.

But at the same time, semiconductor companies across the country that have received invitations from Telling Electronics Group began to go to Shenzhen for investigation and study.

Duan Yun’s practice of inviting domestic counterparts to come to the factory to learn, in fact, as early as two years ago, a domestic semiconductor manufacturer had already done this, and that was the famous Wuxi 742 factory.

In fact, in later generations, Wuxi was still an important base in the layout of China's integrated circuit industry, which has something to do with the foundation laid during the 742 factory.

In the early years, Wuxi 742 Factory was the first semiconductor state-owned enterprise to introduce integrated circuit technology from abroad in my country. In just a few years, the chip output in the factory reached 3000 million pieces. It was once famous for the famous domestic TV-Panda , Venus, Hole Value - the heart is all equipped with products from this factory.

According to some statistics, the chips coming out of this production line are used in 40% of domestic TVs, stereos and power supplies. Factory 742 also became China's largest integrated circuit factory with the largest production capacity, the most complete process, and the first large-scale production of modern industries.

In 1986, the "531 Development Strategy" was proposed. There was a background: in this year, my country's integrated circuit production declined sharply. According to the established strategy, the state will concentrate funds to build two or three key factories and support a group of about ten medium-sized enterprises. , Allow the existence of a group of [-] to [-] small factories each with their own characteristics.

All of a sudden, relevant companies in the chip industry chain from all over the country sent inspection groups to Wuxi, and Factory 742 also responded to the national battle, promoting the 5-micron integrated circuit production technology that it had mastered to the whole country, giving away technical materials for free, and even dispatched engineers. Technicians go to other companies for support.Wang Hongjin, the general manager of the factory at the time, made a special statement for this: "To study in the 742 factory, in addition to food and accommodation, there is no money!"

But now.Duan Yun is much more "generous" than the 742 factory in Wuxi. He not only donated Toshiba's three-micron integrated circuit production technology and related materials to other domestic companies for free, but also provided food and lodging for all visitors to their factory. The specifications of the dormitory are also very high. Every two people are equipped with a standard suite, with a fan, TV, tape recorder, four dishes and one soup, two vegetables and two meats, and it can also cater to the local tastes of these technical personnel who come to learn Make adjustments to the recipe to make them as happy as possible.

Duan Yun’s high-standard reception made the technicians of various manufacturers who came to study feel unbelievable, so that soon there was a saying among domestic semiconductor companies that coming to Tianyin Group to study is like a veteran cadre’s recuperation, with food included. Wrap it up and give gifts. Looking around the country, I can't find a second one.

As for the content of the training, Duan Yun also appeared to be very selfless. Not only did Toshiba’s three-micron integrated circuit production line be fully opened to them, but every technician who came to study could also get a thick technical document, which can be said to be unreserved .

But in fact, the real core technology of Duanyun chip factory is the one-micron integrated circuit production line. The four ASML lithography machines have not been disclosed to the technicians of these domestic semiconductor companies. The technical backbone is still an expert who visited with Vice Minister Hu Qi before, and they are also tight-lipped about this, so domestic companies do not know that Tianyin Group has now mastered the production technology of one-micron integrated circuits.

As for chip research and development, the newly developed NAND flash memory chip has entered the patent review stage in Hong Kong, and it is also strictly confidential to the outside world.

After the first few batches of technicians from domestic companies who visited and studied in the same industry left with satisfaction, more domestic semiconductor companies "come here because of their reputation". In addition to technicians, these people also include senior management personnel in the factory. , including BJ City Semiconductor Device Factory No. 7, No. 14 Factory, Shanghai Radio No. [-] Factory, No. [-] Factory, as well as Changzhou Semiconductor Factory, Suzhou Semiconductor Factory, and Tianjin Semiconductor Device No. [-] Factory Director and Deputy Director-level cadres have also come In Shenzhen, study and visit Tianyin Group.
