Chapter 624 Alarm Lifted, Settlement Agreement

Chapter 624 Alarm Lifted, Settlement Agreement
"Mr. Hu, our inventory is gone, and the price of memory chips in the global market is like a wild horse that has run out of control."

When Yan Hanzhang came to Hu Yang to report on his work, he was three parts happy, three parts melancholy, and the rest was at a loss.

Glamor Semiconductor just missed the opportunity of a wave of price hikes. All the products in stock were sold out, and the gross profit margin was only more than 20%.

Now, Glamor Semiconductor is working overtime in production.

Products containing the company's components are not allowed to be exported to North America, but the demand in the domestic market is still huge.There are also European markets, Southeast Asian markets, and so on. Adding up all kinds of things, Charming Semiconductor's existing production capacity is simply not enough.

Hu Yang glanced at Yan Hanzhang, understood what he was regretting, and said with a smile:

"What? Mr. Yan is distressed? Actually, there is no need. After a while, you can take a look at the changes in the share of the company's memory products in the domestic market. I guess you will jump for joy.

Besides, isn't the company currently ramping up production of everything including memory chips?The price has skyrocketed, and we will also get benefits. "

"Mr. Hu, I understand what you said. I don't feel sorry for those lost profits. However, you still have a long-term view. Our memory chips have had a good reputation in domestic and foreign markets for a while, and the market share is huge. The increase was to be expected."

Yan Hanzhang is naturally clear about the fact that you can't have both.

But people, there will be some mentality that they can't look forward to Shu.

Recalling that some time ago, when the price of the entire memory chip went down, Charm Semiconductor was under heavy pressure from the continuous shrinking of the market.

The continuous reduction of revenue will cause the company's operating rate to be insufficient, and then lead to overall losses.If it weren't for the strong financial support of the Huijia Department, it's hard to say whether Charm Semiconductor could survive the last round of price winter.

Thinking of this, Yan Hanzhang felt much better immediately.

"Mr. Yan, it seems that you have figured it out. Now, on the one hand, we must completely release the existing production capacity and keep the hard-won market share. On the other hand, we must pay close attention to the construction of the new factory, otherwise the There is no point in investing in a countercyclical cycle.”

In fact, Populus euphratica has no secrets. To put it bluntly, it uses output and high cost performance to seize the market with these international giants.

Without this round of cold prices for memory chips, it would be difficult for Glamor Semiconductor to compete with others for market share.

One of the most important reasons is that the market does not believe in Charm Semiconductor's technical strength and product quality.

This is much better with flash products, but it's especially noticeable with memory products.

Hu Yang's successful counterattack this time is because he has a clear understanding of the current situation of Charm Semiconductor.

At present, the company's memory products, the first thing to consider is not how much profit to make, but to consider as much as possible to seize some markets.

The opportunity appeared at the bottom of the last round of price decline cycle, and the imbalance between supply and demand caused by major production cuts by major giants.

It's not that Populus euphratica doesn't want to make more money. Since it wants to increase its market share, it can only ship products at a price range that is not recognized by international giants.

At this time, the market is seriously out of stock.Otherwise, some companies that did not look down on Glamor Semiconductor products in the past, or companies that did not want to be implicated by North America’s suppression of Glamor Semiconductor, would not take the initiative to purchase memory chip products from the company.

Of course, there is another very important point.Charm Semiconductor's memory chip products, even if they are a little worse than the products of international giants such as S Star in all aspects, the difference is very limited.

At this time, high cost performance has become an important indicator, which has won word of mouth for the company.

"Mr. Hu, I have already told the sales department that when we follow the market to raise prices, we must be half a beat slower than S Star and other companies, and continue to maintain our advantages."

Yan Hanzhang knows where his advantages are, and it is very important to maintain a high cost performance.

It doesn't matter if the price increase is slower than others. This price difference is the key to maintaining the market share of Charming Semiconductor.

Hu Yang nodded with a smile. These backbones in the company don't have a fuel-efficient lamp. Most of the time, they don't need to worry about their performance.

"How is the company's flash memory chips performing recently?"

The reason why I didn't ask about flash memory chips until now is because compared with memory chips, the company's products in this category have always performed very well in the market.

It can be said that if there is no suppression by a certain country, the flash memory chips of Charm Semiconductor can completely compete with S Star.

Of course, this is not yet possible, but compared to North American MG, it is not bad at all.

"Mr. Hu, I thought you forgot about the flash memory. We have benefited the most from the increase in the price of memory chips this time.

Especially our latest product, 32-layer stacked N+1 generation flash memory, has become the darling of the market in a blink of an eye. "

Flash memory is the pride of Glamor Semiconductor.The company's technology in this field can completely keep pace with the world's top companies.

The newly released 32-layer stacked N+1 generation flash memory is the first product of Glamor Semiconductor that surpasses all competitors.Once released, it was not only marketed domestically, but also attracted merchants in many other regions of the world.

This includes the domestic and surrounding areas, as well as the European market.

New products cannot enter North America due to restrictions against Charm Semiconductor.That's frustrating for businesses, including fruit companies.If you have a better product but cannot apply it, you will lose at the starting line!

It can be said that it is precisely because Charm Semiconductor started to expand its production capacity ahead of time at the bottom of the price of memory chips that the company's memory chips rapidly expanded its domestic and foreign market share.

The advancement of technology has made Glamor Semiconductor's flash memory chips step into the ranks of high-end products in one fell swoop.

After listening to Yan Hanzhang's report, Hu Yang finally smiled in relief.

So far, Glamor Semiconductor has not only got out of the quagmire of losses, but is also moving towards a world-class semiconductor company.

The depression for so long was finally released.When a certain supermarket started to suppress Charm Semiconductor, not to mention foreign countries, even domestic companies were not optimistic about the company's prospects.

At that time, many domestic companies resolutely gave up the cooperation with Charm Semiconductor, and turned to MG or S Star.

But it is precisely these international giants that cater to the industrial boom cycle and wage a price war.

Don't think that everyone will take advantage of the price drop. When a new round of price increases comes, the price of memory chips will refresh everyone's perception.

Hu Yang still clearly remembers in his mind that in that time and space, there was a case where the price of memory chips increased by seven times in three years.

Apart from other factors, one of the important reasons is that there were no memory chip manufacturers in China at that time.

If you don't, then don't blame others for sticking your neck.

And this is exactly the meaning of Charm Semiconductor's existence.

For example, the arrival of this round of memory chip price boom is precisely the foresight of Charm Semiconductor, which has stockpiled a large number of memory chips, making its price increase far behind the expectations of international giants.

During the process of this round of memory rise, Glamor Semiconductor has been slower than others in price adjustment from beginning to end.As a result, the price adjustment methods of these international giants are relatively mild, which indirectly benefits many downstream manufacturers.

"Mr. Yan, the alarm of Charm Semiconductor has finally been lifted. However, it is not time to relax. We must strike while the iron is hot and build the new factory quickly."

This counter-cyclical investment is perfect.

S Star and other international giants, because they misjudged the situation, waited to "pick melons" after the closure of Charm Semiconductor.But I didn't expect that people survived like this.

Not only survived the darkest moment, but also successfully carried out counter-cyclical investment to expand production capacity, and at the same time expanded market share.

Thinking of all this, Yan Hanzhang admires Hu Yang's overall view.

"Mr. Hu, until now, I really admire your foresight. For such a long time, I have been almost crushed by the huge pressure. It is hard to believe that we are out of the predicament.

I estimated together with the company's top management that Glamor Semiconductor will turn around its losses and turn a profit within three months at the most.It is expected that this year's annual report will blind everyone's eyes. "

Before leaving, Yan Hanzhang said these words.This is his true thought, and it is also the thought of many managers of Huijia Department.

After Yan Hanzhang left, Hu Yang immediately calmed down.

Seriously, where does this come from?
Hu Yang has a better understanding of the methods of a certain super than the current people.Even if the other party failed to achieve their goal this time, or had to make a compromise, none of these means that they can sit back and relax in the future.

"Mr. Hu, the city phone number."

When Hu Yang was sitting on a chair and thinking about things, Wu Xinhui knocked on the door and walked in, and handed him the phone.

"Mr. Hu, hello. Are you free at noon? The leader wants to see you."

It was Secretary Zhang who called, saying that Qi Xiangmin had invited Hu Yang to the city.

"Okay, I'll go there after lunch, please tell the leader, Secretary Zhang."

Hu Yang confirmed the meeting time and hung up.

Although Secretary Zhang didn't say what Qi Xiangmin wanted to do with him on the phone, Hu Yang had a premonition that it might be an unexpected surprise.

Sure enough, when he came to Qi Xiangmin's office, Qi Xiangmin's first sentence was:
"Mr. Hu, congratulations. The hard work of you and all members of the Huijia Department has finally paid off. I have received a notice from the relevant parties that North America is considering lifting some of the restrictions on Charming Semiconductor. I wonder if you have the result satisfy?"

Glamor Semiconductor came out of the predicament, and the relevant department formally ruled that the GT monopoly case was established.Next, GT will face a huge fine of 10 billion US dollars.

At this time, a certain super is finally willing to reconcile with the country.At the cost of revoking the fine against GT, part of the restrictions on Glamor Semiconductor will be lifted.

To be precise, it is to lift the second restrictive measures against Charm Semiconductor, and only maintain the restrictive decision made for the first time.

Hu Yang also knows that it is impossible to completely abandon the restrictions in North America.For example, like Mingkang Communications, without any factual basis, the other party can adopt various restrictions just because of the so-called security excuse.

In the end, Mingkang Communication had to withdraw from the North American market.

In this world, after all, strength must speak.

"I have no other requirements. I just hope that the other party will not hinder products containing attractive semiconductor components from entering the North American market."

Hu Yang’s opinion is very clear, you can prevent North American companies from importing any products from Charm Semiconductor, but you should not prevent products containing Charm Semiconductor components from entering North America.

If they can reach an agreement, then many multinational companies can rest assured to cooperate with Charm Semiconductor without fear of suffering.

At the same time, Glamor Electronics can also return to the North American market.

Everyone, you can look forward to the impact of the collision between the Charming Starlight series and the Fruit Company's "Love Crazy Series" in North America.

Qi Xiangmin listened carefully to Hu Yang's opinion, and asked Secretary Zhang to make a very detailed record.

"Mr. Hu, is that all? If there is nothing else, I will report it to the relevant department immediately."

Qi Xiangmin looked at Hu Yang, and when he saw the other nod, he stood up with a smile and said, "Then let's do this for today, and I will notify you immediately if there is a result."

"Okay, then I'll say goodbye first."

Hu Yang stood up immediately, followed by Secretary Zhang and left Qi Xiangmin's office.

In the car, Hu Yang let out a deep breath.

He knew that North America would agree to this condition.The reason is not only because GT is facing a fine of US$10 billion, but also because the fruit company is in urgent need of a new generation of flash memory from Charm Semiconductor.

three days later.

Hu Yang received a call from Secretary Zhang, who told him that a certain supermarket had reached a tacit agreement with China.The relevant announcement will be released soon, and the specific time is this night in China and the morning of local time in North America.

"Assistant Wu, you call Mr. Yan, Mr. Xia, Mr. Chen, Mr. Gao, Mr. Chang and others, and tell them that I will invite them to dinner at the banquet hall on the top floor of the company. No one should be absent."

When Hu Yang arrived at this moment, he felt extremely comfortable.

He decided to wait for the news from North America while eating and drinking at night.

Before leaving get off work, Hu Yang called home and told Tian Sichun that he would not go back for dinner today if he had something to do.At the same time, Tian Sichun was asked to go to bed early so that he didn't have to wait for him.

"A Yang, you are busy with your work, I have nothing to do here. Well, don't drink too much alcohol, it is not good for your health. So be it, bye."

Tian Sichun has long been used to the busyness of Populus euphratica, especially after having a child, her heart has been transferred to Xiao Yifei unknowingly, and she will not feel bored when Populus euphratica is often not at home.

Evening, 7 o'clock.

The top floor of Huijia International Investment Building is brightly lit.

The huge banquet hall is newly furnished.Wu Xinhui, Mi Qi and others directed the service staff to prepare to serve the dishes. Today's dishes are mainly Cantonese dishes.
