Chapter 196 Current Situation of the Chip Industry

Li Cheng was a little confused when he received the call from Land Rover and McLaren.

He also didn't think why these people would look for Zero one batteries.

But soon Li Chengcheng understood that Irene Edward's power-assisted bicycle had to be replaced with a Zero One battery, and he must explain to the consumer, otherwise he would be defrauding the consumer.

It is estimated that Land Rover and McLaren should know the Zero one battery through this channel, and also tested the performance of the semi-solid lithium battery.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng sighed, because the Zero one battery at this stage will definitely not be able to fit in the car, not even the battery of the mobile phone, because the stability of the Zero one battery still needs to be greatly improved.

But Li Cheng still agreed to meet with the staff from Land Rover and McLaren.

The two parties had a meal together, during which Li Cheng explained the situation to them.

The staff of Land Rover and McLaren were a little disappointed after learning that the Zero one battery could not be adapted to new energy vehicles for the time being.

But when they heard that Li Chengcheng could solve technical problems within half a year at most, they immediately became excited.

Half a year is nothing!They couldn't wait, and they also expressed their willingness to help Li Cheng with the battery test, as long as they could give them some discounts when the time came.

Li Cheng thought about it and agreed.

With the help of large car companies such as Land Rover and McLaren, the follow-up battery test will definitely be much smoother. As for the discount, it will be a matter after the battery test is complete.

That night, Li Cheng told Guo Yuan about his cooperation intention with Land Rover and McLaren.

After Guo Yuan read the email from Li Cheng, he felt that Li Cheng's handling was pretty good.

Instead of selling semi-finished batteries to the two of them directly because of temporary benefits, they gave it half a year.

According to the current calculation of 01, in about one more month, the research on semi-solid lithium batteries will be completely completed.

At that time, it will save a lot of time and money by using the Land Rover and McLaren venues and equipment for testing.

For this relationship, it is appropriate to give them some preferential points.

Thinking of this, Guo Yuan sent a message back to Li Cheng, asking him to follow his own ideas.

Then Guo Yuan also gave Li Cheng the right to distribute 3% of the stock incentives, allowing him to use it to win over the company's top management.

After all, once the semi-solid lithium battery research of Zero one battery is over, the next stage must be sales and production.

Since it is necessary to expand the company's scale in order to sell and produce, the number of high-level managers in the company will also increase.

If you want a company's top executives to work hard, share incentives are a must.

Except for Guo Yuan, the CFO, and an assistant to the president who may be sent by him, Guo Yuan intends to directly hand over the others to Li Cheng for selection, and he can use whoever he wants.

This is also the reason why Guo Yuan gave Li Cheng the right to divide 3% of the stock incentives.

After making arrangements for Li Cheng's affairs.

Guo Yuan continued to look at information related to the semiconductor chip industry.

According to Guo Yuan's hard work in recent days, he feels that as long as he is a normal person, he will not be optimistic about the domestic chip industry at this stage.

The reason is not that since you can buy it from outside, why invest so much money to develop it yourself?
Especially when domestic technology lags behind foreign countries by at least ten years.

Among other things, let's take the chip manufacturing process as an example.

Process technology - is the distance between the circuit and the circuit in the IC, the higher the precision, the more advanced the production process.

More electronic components can be manufactured in the same material, and the thinner the connecting wire, the higher the fineness, and the smaller the power consumption of the CPU.

Others can now mass-produce high-quality 14nm chips, while we are still struggling with 28nm.

There are several generations behind 22nm, 20nm, and 16nm.

If there is no accident, 10nm, 7nm, and even 5nm will be produced in foreign countries soon.

The craftsmanship is better, and the cost is lower.

The technical disadvantages are obvious.

In terms of cost, many people believe that domestic companies have certain advantages.

But in fact, the only cost advantage that domestic enterprises have is labor cost.

Due to differences in procurement costs, design techniques, and quality levels, things made in China may not be cheaper than those made abroad.

Therefore, domestic chip demanders also buy from outside.

It is precisely because of this kind of buying from outside that further intensifies domestic R&D investment. If you can’t get orders, you have no money. If you don’t have money, you use a hammer to develop more sophisticated chip technology.

In order for these chip research and development companies to obtain funds, various green lights have been given from above.

As long as this type of industry has made some achievements, it can easily go public for financing.

Some entrepreneurs, shouting to fight for the rise of Huaxia Chip, actually reported that the company went public and ran away with a fortune in order to achieve financial freedom.

Now many companies are like this, under the guise of semiconductors, all kinds of investment, all kinds of personal GJs are required, and after the listing, they will cut leeks fiercely.

Now the sci-tech innovation board makes chips, and the market value can soar to 1000 billion in the last market.

The money comes in too fast, like a strong wind blows and the wind is full of money, just put it in a sack and it's over.

In this context, more and more large capitals in China no longer trust the chip industry, and are even less willing to invest in this industry with money.

That's why it's Future Technology's turn to invest in these five laboratories.

Speaking of these five laboratories, Zhuge Chuang has reached a consensus with two of them and completed the investment.

This has a lot to do with Zhuge Chuang's previous development in the chip industry.

Zhuge Chuang knows enough about the chip industry, and he still has a few good patents in his hand. Although these patents do not belong to him for the time being, it cannot be said that these patents have nothing to do with him.

With this, the negotiations between Zhuge Chuang and these laboratories went smoothly.

Zhuge Chuang and they promised only one veto right, and this right will only be used when the people in the laboratory have an impact on the interests of future technology.

Usually, future technology will never interfere with the development of the laboratory.

And as long as the contract is signed, the money will definitely come to the end within a week or half a month. If the money hasn't come within half a month, the contract will be automatically voided, and Future Technology will give them compensation.

Under such conditions and attitude, Zhuge Chuang successfully completed the shareholding of five laboratories.

After the shareholding was completed, Zhuge Chuang invited them to have dinner together.

At the dinner table, the person in charge of a laboratory had a good relationship with Zhuge Chuang, and asked Zhuge Chuang directly: "Chuangzi, we are considered our own people at this moment, so let us know if your company has any plans." The idea of ​​your own chip industrial park?"

Zhuge Chuang shook his head when he heard the words. Based on the current development of the domestic semiconductor industry, to be honest, regardless of the issue of technological leadership, anyone who understands the 01:30 conductor industry should know that the semiconductor industry is actually very difficult in China.

This industry has high investment and low output. Even if you finally achieve some results, you may not be able to live well, because your achievements have already been realized abroad.

Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the so-called semiconductor business of many companies is nonsense, and their purpose is to make money by going public.

For these companies, whether they can produce semiconductors is not important, but making money is the most important thing.

The people in these five laboratories are also aware of these situations, and they are actually a little afraid. If future technology invests in them, will they eventually establish their own chip industrial park, and then use this as a gimmick to make a fortune, and then run away? .

If this is the case, although future technology will not interfere with their experiments, it will also have a great impact on them.

"Everyone, don't worry! Our company has no idea of ​​using this to make money. Our boss doesn't understand semiconductors at all. The reason why he will invest in you is largely because of my lobbying.

Our boss is not interested in the semiconductor industry at all, and has no idea of ​​developing in this area. Besides, our company does not have enough money.

And I can tell you that if we want to build a chip industrial park in the future, I must be in charge. You should believe me, right? "Zhuge Chuang asked.
