Chapter 88 Recruiting a Secretary
Dahan Silicon Industry Pingjiang Branch, conference room.

After many rounds of inspections, Ming Yuhan finally entered the Pingjiang Branch of Dahan Silicon Industry, and then entered the interview room under the guidance of employees from the human resources department.

There was a young man sitting on the sofa inside.

As seen on TV, the chairman of Dahan Silicon Industry, who is quite mysterious on the Internet, looks quite young.

He was wearing a set of light blue overalls casually, and there were even some spots of oil stains on them. Those who didn't know it thought he was a young master from a car repair shop.

But Ming Yuhan didn't dare to underestimate this great god at all. He even couldn't help but feel a little nervous the first time he saw him.

"Ming Yuhan, right?" After seeing the person coming, Kang Chi stood up, nodded gently to her, and pointed to the sofa opposite, "Please sit down, I am Kang Chi, the chairman of Dahan Silicon Industry."

"Hello, Mr. Kang..." Ming Yuhan nodded quickly, "I'm here to apply for the position of Secretary to the Board, Ming Yuhan."

"Well, let's sit down and talk."

After the personnel poured a cup of tea for each of them, they exited the interview room.

Kang Chi briefly glanced at her resume, then raised his head and asked: "Well... the secretary to the board of directors resigned and started his own business. Although it failed in the end, he accumulated a lot of entrepreneurial and team management experience in the three years of entrepreneurship... Can I ask about your business, what is it specifically?”

"Well, it is mainly an online labor trading platform. To put it simply, it helps some companies find individuals to outsource tasks such as design, planning, and filming."

"Sounds pretty good." Kang Chi nodded, "Why can't I do it anymore?"

Ming Yuhan smiled bitterly: "The main reason is that the price transparency of online platforms has significantly intensified the involution of labor services. Many people cut prices without a bottom line in order to grab orders. Then, the services provided are usually not satisfactory to enterprises. Finally, It just leads to displeasure on both sides of the platform, and the traffic is getting lower and lower..."

"What if prices are not made transparent?"

"We have also tried, but the effect is not great. We mainly look for outsourcers online, which are usually start-ups that are short of funds. Therefore, similar platforms use transparent and low prices to attract corporate traffic..."

So there are not only enterprise papers and freelance papers, but also a platform paper.
This is indeed a bit difficult.

"Then you have started your own business for three years and are used to being the leader. Now you can come back and be the secretary to the board of directors. Can you adapt?"

Ming Yuhan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Don't worry, I can adjust my mentality."

Kang Chi nodded, and then asked her to go back and wait for the notification.

Overall, he was quite satisfied with this little girl who was about the same age as him.

As for the previous waves of interviews...

Simply unable to complain.

Everyone kept winking at him and making pretense during the interview, so much so that he couldn't help but call Chen Hai over and ask them what they were like.

In this regard, Chen Hai just smiled and assured that everyone who could come within 100 meters of him had gone through their background checks and confirmed that there was no problem.

In addition, those who have come to Dahan Silicon for interviews will have someone responsible for follow-up observation in the coming period to prevent them from doing anything they shouldn't do.

In fact, their entry route was all arranged in advance. There was no way to see the reality of Dahan Silicon Industry, and there was nothing to reveal.

Therefore, the problem lies in the selection of personnel...

So Kang Chi called the HR director over again and strongly condemned his wrong direction of work.

"I'm choosing an assistant, not a wife. Why are you here to tease some coquettish people?"

"Well... they all have rich work experience, and their ability to do things is absolutely no problem."

"But when they dress like this, it really affects my ability to screw!"

"..."

The HR manager who was scolded by Kang Chi felt aggrieved.
There is a boss who doesn’t like a beautiful and capable secretary?

In short, if everyone hadn't already made an appointment, Kang Chi wouldn't want to go on with the interview.

Fortunately, the person I interviewed later, Ming Yuhan, seemed pretty good.

She is well-dressed and well-behaved, and looks like a lady.

What's even more rare is that in addition to several work experiences as a secretary to the board of directors, she also started her own business. Even if she failed in the end, the three years of hard entrepreneurial experience must have been a great training for her.

Especially for a girl, both her mentality and thought structure are definitely different from those of people who have been working.

Kang Chi finally decided to let her be his assistant.

But then again,

The second girl interviewed,

Those legs are really great...
-
Time flies. For most people, a month feels like the weekend is over before they have even played two games.

But for the domestic semiconductor industry, every day of this month feels like a year.

The high price and scarcity of silicon wafer raw materials are like fish bones stuck in the lifeblood of every chip company.No one had imagined before that silicon wafers, which have always been available at relatively reasonable prices, could soar from US$0.9 per square foot to US$6.9 per square foot in one month, then to US$8.9, and now to US$10.9!

After all, there are only a few semiconductor companies like Shanghai Silicon Industry that have relatively abundant silicon wafer inventories because they have laid out the silicon wafer industry in advance.

But some chip factories with relatively single silicon wafer supply channels are having a hard time.

Before purchasing silicon wafers, AV Electronics issued an announcement to customers, saying that due to the price of raw materials, all chip foundry prices would increase. Only when customers accepted it would they dare to buy sky-high silicon wafers.

The price increases for chip customization by these customers will naturally be shared equally with every consumer.

There are still relatively few direct price increases for products, but originally you could use a discount coupon of 200 yuan on the basis of the initial price. Nowadays, these manufacturers do not issue discount coupons, or only issue discount coupons of smaller amounts... …

In fact, it is a disguised price increase, but consumers do not feel that much.

But if the price increases for silicon wafers continue, even ordinary consumers may notice an increase in the price of electronic products.

The last time Ruan Changhai purchased from Shin-Etsu Chemical was a month ago. During this period, he successively purchased some silicon wafers from silicon wafer oligarchs such as Shenggao Group, Global Wafer, and Sitronic. Today, it is Shin-Etsu Chemical's turn again. .

"Fifty thousand tablets?"

After hearing Ruan Changhai's purchase application, Kozaburo Eda couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Didn’t they ask for 20 tablets last month?
Why is there suddenly so much less this month?

"There is no way. Now that silicon wafers are so expensive, we can't keep raising prices with our customers. Otherwise, they will directly find an electromechanical OEM, and if we alone bear the price increase of silicon wafers, we will lose one chip by manufacturing one... We only postponed some unimportant orders and stopped production with limited options..."

After Ruan Changhai finished speaking with a sad look on his face, he quickly asked: "It's been a month, and your equipment hasn't been repaired yet? When will production capacity be restored?"

Seeing Ruan Changhai's anxious look, Eda Kozaburo couldn't help but feel a little proud, and the doubts that had just arisen were much lessened.

"I don't know either. They are all precision equipment and they take a lot of time to maintain."

"..."

In the end, Ruan Changhai bought another 10.9 pieces at a sky-high price of US$[-] per square foot.

At the same time, members of the SIA Association who were watching the fire from the other side had some doubts in their hearts.

This silicon wafer war has been going on for a month. These greedy little bookmakers have raised the price of silicon wafers to a level that even them are shocked.
But apart from promoting a corporate merger and acquisition, Huaguo has never taken any other practical actions...

It's a little strange.

Moreover, most of China's chip companies have not shown any signs of large-scale production reductions, apart from increasing their prices.
I originally thought that China's chip foundry orders would fly like snowflakes towards Taiwan Electromechanical and Samsung due to SMIC's price increase and production reduction.

The result was a lonely wait.

Quan Mouxian, the chairman of Samsung Electronics, looked at a data report and couldn't help but frowned and murmured: "Axiba, why does it feel like something is wrong..."

According to the script, it should be these little books who eat soup, and their chip factory who eats meat.

During this period of time, I was so proud of just reading the little book. Not to mention the three stars, they didn’t even have a drink of soup.

Quan Wuxian was inevitably a little irritable.

If he had known that China would be so insistent, there would be no need for him to vote in favor of this matter.

Although it made Hua Guo feel uncomfortable, he was also very unhappy when he saw the little book enjoying itself.

In fact, although Old M has many younger brothers, none of them can actually make him worry-free. They all have evil intentions and have no sense of unity at all. It would be nice if he didn't start a fight and hold him back at the critical moment...

The beautiful secretary who submitted the report to Quan Wuxian saw that his brows were twisted into knots, so she gently sat on his lap and helped him rub his temples: "Brother Wuxian, do you think they can Are there other silicon chip channels?”

"Impossible." Quan Wuxian snorted, "There are only a few companies in the world that can produce silicon wafers."

As he spoke, his hands became dishonest...

"Even if the silicon wafer technology is given directly to China, it will take time to expand production, right? How is it possible that new silicon wafers can be manufactured so quickly? Oh... I guess they secretly stored a lot of goods before."

"In this case, Brother Wu Xian, just wait patiently..."

"Yeah, but I'm running out of patience with you..."

……

What Quan Wuxian didn't expect was that the wait would last another month.

He felt more and more faintly that something was really wrong.

The one who felt stronger than him was Kozaburo Eda.

Because it has been several days and no one has come to ask him to buy silicon wafers...
