Counterattack 1988

Chapter 1754 My son, I'll wait for you!
Under Wang Lin's instruction, Deng Dabao, Wang Haiyang and others went to the United States to personally deliver the 8-inch wafer samples produced by Aixiu Technology to the hands of Grove, the president of Intel Corporation.

In the mid-90s, it was a golden opportunity for my country to develop semiconductors.

Our domestic chip research level is not far behind the most advanced international technology.

Coupled with the suppression of Toyo Semiconductor by the United States and the huge impact caused by the financial crisis, the semiconductor industry is in mourning.

Wang Lin, the richest man who has achieved success and fame, spent a huge amount of money to invest in the semiconductor torrent. He acquired LG's semiconductor business, and also acquired more than a dozen Toyo semiconductor raw material supply companies. In an instant, he became one of the most powerful semiconductor companies in the world. one.

However, although the Aixiu Group has a certain strength, it is still unknown.

Just like a young man who lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests and practiced martial arts hard, no one knew about his peerless martial arts, and there was no legend about him in the world.

In order to curb the independent development of my country's semiconductor industry, the West has temporarily relaxed restrictions on the purchase of my country's semiconductor technology and equipment.

Aixiu Technology has purchased a large number of advanced lithography equipment.

The process of 8-inch wafers is very mature. Aishu Technology has talents, technology, equipment, and raw materials, so it is not difficult to produce them.

In the field of semiconductor leadership, for quite a long time, the foundry model has not been favored by other manufacturers around the world. There are two main reasons: First, the technology level of the current factory is at least 1 to 2 generations behind the IDM process , so the foundry at that time could only be used as a fill-in for IDM factories when production capacity was in short supply; second, at that time, the global semiconductor industry mainly provided products for computers, and fabless design companies had not yet emerged in large numbers.

Wang Lin also knows that it is difficult to make a profit in a short period of time for the love show technology he invested in.

The past few years have been the cold winter of the semiconductor industry.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Wang Lin to successfully acquire so many semiconductor companies.

Coupled with the impact of the financial crisis, it is difficult for the semiconductor industry to make money.

But he has to finish the layout now.

In the trough period of the industry, it is necessary to go against the market and grow against the cycle in order to catch up with the western regions.

The highlights of the global foundry industry began in the 21st century.

On the one hand, the application of the Internet has accelerated the replacement cycle of terminal electronic products; on the other hand, due to the rapid improvement of process technology and the substantial increase in factory construction costs, objectively there is an urgent need for OEMs in order to reduce product development costs.

At the same time, it is undeniable that the key role is that the technical capabilities of foundries have been greatly improved to meet the needs of advanced technology, coupled with the joint promotion of the gradual maturity of third-party IP companies, leading to the rapid growth of the global foundry industry.

Wang Lin focused on the 21st century and didn't care about the losses in the past few years.

But he will also do his best to attract more orders to maintain the sound development of Aishiu Technology itself.

Intel's foundry orders are what Wang Lin needs most.

Deng Dabao is Wang Lin's most important right-hand man. He has a very deep understanding of the chairman's intentions and knows the importance of Grove, an old man, to the company.

After arriving in Silicon Valley, Deng Dabao met with Grove and handed over samples of 8-inch wafers produced by himself.

Grove put on his reading glasses and looked at the samples carefully.

After a long time, he raised his head and asked, "Is this produced by your Aixiu company?"

Deng Dabao said: "Yes, Mr. Grove. We acquired LG's semiconductor business and purchased the most advanced wafer manufacturing equipment."

Grove said, "Does your company have talents in this field?"

Deng Dabao said: "When we acquired semiconductor companies, we also hired their employees. Aixiu now has thousands of high-end technical talents, and they come from Japan, South Korea, and Western countries."

Grove nodded: "Not bad!"

Deng Dabao sent out the invitation in due course.

Grove picked up the memo on the desktop and flipped through it, then said, "How about July [-]th?"

Deng Dabao beamed with joy, and agreed: "Of course! On behalf of the 50 employees of Aixiu Group, I warmly welcome you."

Grove smiled slightly: "Does the Love Show Group have 50 employees?"

Deng Dabao said: "Yes, we have opened more than a dozen new branches and factories around the world, and now the total number of employees has reached 50. The market value of our company has exceeded 1000 billion yuan."

Grove said: "This is an amazing company! Mr. Wang Lin has created a miracle in the East. What was your company's revenue last year?"

Revenue is revenue, market cap is market cap.

These are two different concepts.

Market capitalization refers to the total value of the issued shares of a listed company calculated according to the market price, and its calculation method is the market price of each share multiplied by the total number of issued shares.The sum of the market capitalization of all listed companies on the entire stock market is the total market capitalization of the stock.

Revenue refers to operating income, which refers to the total inflow of economic interests formed by the company in daily activities such as selling goods, providing labor services, and transferring asset use rights, including main business income and other business income.

This concept is different from net profit.

Operating income is the total income, while net profit is the net income after deducting costs and income tax expenses.

Of course, Deng Dabao knew the revenue of Aishiu Group last year.

"Mr. Grove, our company's revenue last year was 535 billion yuan."

Grove said: "Very good! But if you want to enter the world's top 500 companies, you have to continue to work hard. Let me give you a numerical reference. Apple's revenue is 110 billion US dollars, ranking 500th in the Fortune 400." .”

110 billion U.S. dollars, which is almost [-] billion yuan in conversion!

Apple's annual revenue has reached 1000 billion yuan!
The total market value of Aishiu Group is only RMB 1000 billion.

From this point of view, Aishu Group still has a long way to go from being a Fortune 500 company.

Deng Dabao said: "Yes, our goal is to enter the Fortune Global 500 company, but we still need to work hard to achieve this goal."

Grove said: "There are also textile companies that have entered the top 500 companies, but there are only a few of them. You choose to enter the high-tech industry for development, and I think your decision is correct. But your main business is to help others do the manufacturing. It's a bit too low-end. If possible, you should develop towards high-end research and development!"

Deng Dabao and Wang Lin are like-minded people, and he is deeply familiar with Wang Lin's propositions and thoughts.

He immediately replied: "Mr. Grove, Director Wang has set the tone and direction for the development of Aishiu Technology Company, which is to only do foundry production of chip wafers, and will not develop and design chips. Director Wang said, we To be able to do one thing well and achieve the ultimate is success. Even if this matter is despised by others, we are willing to do it, and we must do our best! Be number one in the world!"

Grove took a deep look at him, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, then it's settled, I will go to Shencheng on July [-]th, right?"

Deng Dabao said: "Yes, our Aixiu Technology Company is located in Shencheng. This is a young city and a luxurious metropolis. We sincerely welcome you and your team to visit. July [-]th , we will be waiting for you at Shencheng Airport."

Walking out of the Intel Building and looking at the streets of Santa Clara, Deng Dabao couldn't help laughing. He found a phone booth and called Wang Lin.

"Wang Dong, it's a good luck not to disgrace! Mr. Grove agreed to visit Shencheng Aishu Technology Company on July [-]th." Deng Dabao's voice was trembling with excitement.

Wang Lin laughed and said, "Boss Deng, you've worked hard! Great! We have a chance when he comes."

Deng Dabao said: "I think he is very satisfied with our samples."

Wang Lindao: "The wafers produced by our company are no worse than any other! Quality is the foundation of a company's survival. We must keep this in mind."

The two chatted.

Deng Dabao and others choose a date to return.

There is still some time before July [-]th, enough time for Wang Lin to make arrangements and arrangements to meet Grove's strict inspection.

Grove is a brilliant entrepreneur and a paranoid.

Such people pursue perfection in their work.

Although Aishu Technology has invited Grove, it still needs to make efforts to get Grove's approval.

Li Wenxiu discussed with Wang Lin, should they go to Xiangjiang for vacation this summer?

It has become a tradition for Wang Lin and his friends to go to Xiangjiang to rest for a period of time every year.

But this year, this itinerary may have to be declined.

Wang Lin wanted to go all out to prepare for the Grove test in July.

He told his wife, after Grove left, let's go to Xiangjiang again!

Li Wenxiu asked him: "Are you going to Shencheng again?"

Wang Lindao: "Yes, I will fly to Shencheng at the end of June and personally lead the work there. I will not come back to Shanghai until after receiving Grove."

Li Wenxiu said: "How long will it take?"

Wang Lindao: "At least half a month, at least a month! When the children are on vacation, you can bring them to Shencheng to play!"

Li Wenxiu said: "I've been to Shencheng, it's nothing interesting! It's still very hot over there."

Wang Lindao: "Then you can figure it out."

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of June.

Wang Lin led a team to Shencheng.

Members of this team include Zhou Boqiang, Deng Dabao, Zhang Xiaowan and others.

As for his women, he didn't bring any of them.

When we arrived in Shencheng, we were near Xiangjiang River, so Li Jiaxin would come over for a tryst.

The weather in Shencheng at the end of June was indeed as hot as an oven.

After Wang Lin and his party arrived in Shencheng, they arranged for Zhou Boqiang and others to live in Huamei Hotel, and he himself lived in a villa. Zhang Xiaowan and Uncle Zhong accompanied him to take care of his daily life.

After settling down, Wang Lin called Li Jiaxin and said that he had arrived in Shencheng and would live here for about half a month.

Needless to say, Li Jiaxin will also find time to come over for a meeting.

Sure enough, when Li Jiaxin heard that he was in Shencheng, she smiled happily and said, "My lord, I will go to accompany you at night!"

Wang Lin felt warm and said with a smile, "Are you in such a hurry? Come over tonight?"

Li Jiaxin said: "It's a coincidence that you came here. I accompanied Zhou Xiaomin to shoot a movie here in Shencheng! A drama she filmed was filmed here, and I accompanied her to have fun! I didn't expect you to come here too! That's it, Let's meet tonight!"

Wang Lindao: "Okay. Where is Xiao Min's studio?"

Li Jiaxin said: "On the side of Shencheng Bay, she is filming, and I am watching from the side! Do you want to come over?"

Wang Lin didn't have anything to do, so he said, "Okay, how long are you going? You won't wait for me to arrive, have you left?"

Li Jiaxin said: "It will take several hours to call it a day! How can filming be so easy? Son, I'll wait for you!"
