Chapter 73 Strategic Cooperation
"Mr. Ren, this is Mr. Lu."

In the conference room, under the introduction of Liu Sicheng, Lu Chen met this legendary entrepreneur.

As an old man over seventy years old, Ren Zhenfei looked a bit old-fashioned, but for the sake of the company, he still came to see Lu Chen in person regardless of his hard work.

The moment Lu Chen saw Elder Ren, he knew the other party's plan in his heart.

He came for the chips.

Liu Sicheng is only the person in charge of Huawei's application marketing department. According to his rank, he should not have stood with Mr. Ren, but he is the only person in Huawei who has dealt with Lu Chen, so there was a scene in the conference room.

"Hi Mr. Ren, I'm Lu Chen."

Lu Chen walked forward with a smile, and shook hands with the old man.

When Ren Zhenfei saw Lu Chen, his admiration was undisguised: "President Lu, your company's technological breakthrough in the field of large silicon wafers has completely broken the monopoly position of the large silicon wafer market in Western countries. It's so important!"

He used the four words "important" to describe the new large silicon wafer produced by Loongson Semiconductor.

"Mr. Ren, you are too generous."

After a bit of politeness, the two began to get down to business.

After listening to Ren Zhenfei's narration, Lu Chen did not express his opinion immediately, but frowned and said, "Mr. Ren, do you want our company to help you regain TSMC's chips?"

It has to be said that since North America imposed chip sanctions on Huawei, although Huawei has proposed a self-developed lithography machine plan, it is obviously impossible to catch up with ASML's technical level in lithography machines in a short time.

The Kirin chip designed by HiSilicon is one of the most advanced chips in the world, which means that it has high requirements on the manufacturing level of the foundry, and the general chip foundry cannot meet Huawei's requirements at all.

In other words, at present, Huawei really has a taste of TSMC.

Although Huawei took precautions and hoarded a large number of Kirin chips before the supply was cut off, you must know that the speed of mobile phone chip replacement is very fast.

The chips hoarded now may become backward products in the second half of the year, let alone next year.

As a result, without advanced self-developed chips, Huawei's high-end mobile phone business will suffer a fatal blow.

The high-end mobile phone business will affect the company's strategic layout and overall profits, and insufficient profits will affect the company's R&D work, and a vicious circle will follow.

Coupled with the fact that Huawei is restricted by North America in the field of 5G communications, it can be described as difficult.

"That's right, Huawei wants to reach a strategic cooperation with your company in the semiconductor business and communication business!"

After finishing speaking, Ren Zhenfei looked at Lu Chen intently.

Lu Chen became interested: "Mr. Ren, can you tell me more about it?"

Ren Zhenfei nodded and said: "Godson Semiconductor's technological breakthrough in the field of large silicon wafers indicates that in the near future, it will definitely monopolize the global large silicon wafer market. Although the global market share of large silicon wafers is only 150 billion US dollars, it is a semiconductor The most upstream of the industry and one of the core materials for chip manufacturers.

From this perspective, your company's influence on chip manufacturers such as TSMC will become great!What our company lacks now is the influence on chip manufacturers. "

"Then what do you mean by strategic cooperation in communication business?"

"5G technology! Our 5G technology!"

Ren Zhenfei smiled slightly, "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Lu wants to build a car."

"Oh?" Lu Chen neither admitted nor denied, "How did Mr. Ren see it?"

"Chensheng Technology is now the world's largest supplier of battery management systems for new energy vehicles, and is also an advocate of the Wireless Charging Alliance. Mr. Lu, based on your layout, if it is not for the purpose of setting foot in the energy vehicle industry in the new year, there is no need for free authorization. Wireless charging technology.

According to the latest industry report of the charging pile industry, at present, the number of charging pile operators using your company’s microwave charging technology has exceeded 60% globally. If you say that you are only building a battery management system for such a huge ecosystem, I don’t think so. believe. "

Ren Zhenfei shook his head.

Lu Chen smiled: "Even if I want to get involved in the new energy vehicle industry, what can your company do for us?"

"Unmanned driving technology!"

Ren Zhenfei stretched out a finger.

"what?"

This time, Lu Chen was really taken aback, "You mean Huawei has mastered driverless technology?"

He didn't hear the slightest word about this matter.

"President Lu got it wrong," Ren Zhenfei coughed softly, "I mean, driverless technology will be the future of the auto industry, and of course, this also includes new energy vehicles."

Lu Chen understood what the other party meant, 5G technology!
One of the core technologies in unmanned driving is communication technology.

5G technology is currently the most advanced communication technology.

You must know that 5G represents not only technology, but also its huge infrastructure. These things are Huawei's global heritage.

As long as Lu Chen gets a ride with Huawei, he will enjoy the full support of this huge ecology when he launches driverless cars in the future.

At that time, as long as there is 5G coverage, his new energy vehicles will be able to use the driverless function unimpeded.

This temptation is not insignificant to Chensheng Technology.

What Chensheng Technology needs to pay is only its influence in the semiconductor industry.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen stretched out his right hand and said solemnly: "Mr. Ren, happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Ren Zhenfei smiled happily.

Before coming to Chensheng Technology, he thought that Lu Chen would agree, but he originally thought that Lu Chen needed a meeting to discuss.

I didn't expect the other party to make a decision with one word.

This means that Lu Chen has unparalleled control over Chensheng Technology.

It is indeed a 100% holding company.

Ren Zhenfei thought secretly.

In fact, under Qin Ruolan's management reform, Chensheng Technology has established a set of equity incentive plans internally.

But firstly, there are only 5% of the shares in this option pool, and secondly, after the employees leave, the company will repurchase the shares according to the internal valuation to avoid the loss of shares.

Of course, the dividends of the shares in the option pool will be paid out by Chensheng Technology every year, so when you are an executive at Chensheng Technology, you will not have the trouble of your boss drawing cakes for you.

Because the company will pay real money by the end of the year.

Just like last year, due to the construction of production bases and other heavy asset investments, Chensheng Technology had almost no net profit, but it also distributed nearly [-] million bonuses to all employees.

On average, each employee gets almost [-] bonuses, which is an additional bonus, not a year-end bonus. One can imagine how generous the benefits of Chensheng Technology are.

This year is the year when Chensheng Technology exploded. When talking about dividends and bonuses, all the employees were so excited that they couldn't sleep all night.

According to the calculations of some company executives, the dividend bonus of Chensheng Technology this year is estimated to be more than 30 billion. On average, even the most front-line production workers can get a bonus of [-] to [-] yuan.

Coupled with the year-end bonus, front-line workers can get more than [-] bonuses.

It is really better to find a factory to work.
