Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

"Dr. Hu, take me to the semiconductor office. I want to talk to you about something."

　　 "Okay, Chairman, please follow me!"

　　 Hu Zhengming is a typical researcher, very elegant and easy-going. After hearing what Xia Yu said, he smiled and took Xia Yu and Huo Jianning into the elevator and headed to the floor of Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory.

　　 "Dr. Hu, this time the group will open a series of new companies, among which the semiconductor field will be the top priority."

　　 "So immediately, the work pressure on your side will be much greater, and you need to lead a good team."

　　Hu Zhengming was slightly taken aback, his smile became brighter, and he said without hesitation: "Chairman, for those of us who are engaged in scientific research, the most feared thing is to have R&D projects, but the most feared is that there is nowhere to do it.

　　 "You provide us with such a good scientific research environment and can devote yourself to scientific research. We will definitely go all out to complete the tasks arranged by the company."

　　 Xia Yu nodded in satisfaction.

　　 At this time, the elevator just reached the designated floor, and he smiled and said, "Go to the laboratory first and then talk to you."

　　 "Okay, please over here!"

　　 After that, Hu Zhengming led Xia Yu to one direction.

　　 Soon, the three of them arrived in the preparation room of the laboratory. After changing their clothes, they walked in.

　　 "Chairman, this laboratory is the largest one, and most of the researchers are doing research here."

　　 "If there are some experiments with special requirements, I will go to other smaller laboratories."

　　 After entering, what caught the eye was that researchers wearing white scientific research uniforms gathered in twos and threes, surrounded by machines or instruments, and Hu Zhengming immediately introduced them.

　　 "Let's take a look."

　　 Xia Yu nodded slightly and walked towards a crowd with her legs.

　　 "Chairman!"

　　 "Teacher!"

　　 "Chairman... Director..."

　　 Seeing the arrival of Xia Yu and others, the researcher who was studying immediately greeted Xia Yu and others, and one of them called teacher Hu Zhengming.

　　 Xia Yu looked at him, and it was Liang Mengsong as expected. This elementary school student's hair style is exactly the same as that of later generations.

　　 "Hello."

　　 "What kind of research are you mainly doing now?"

　　 "Chairman, we are currently fully developing a 3 micron chip manufacturing process..."

　　 Liang Mengsong was the main force of this research, and he reported directly to Xia Yu.

　　 Xia Yu listened quietly, although he could not understand all these profound techniques, he knew some common sense.

　　 After Liang Mengsong finished speaking, Xia Yu suddenly asked a key question: "Which level has the mainstream chip technology in the world reached?"

　　 Liang Mengsong was a little embarrassed, but still answered truthfully: "The chairman, the world's top chip company, has already entered the mass production of 1 micron chips."

　　 "In October last year, the 80386 processor released by Intel in the United States used a 1 micron manufacturing process."

　　 "Our current research and development progress is indeed lagging behind, but we will make a breakthrough. The current 1 micron manufacturing process project has been started for some time, and 7 technology patents have been developed in this field."

　　 "Well, I see."

　　 "It is a good thing to have pressure, and it is necessary to transform the pressure into the motivation to make progress."

　　 Xia Yu smiled and encouraged.

　　 "You guys go on."

　　 "Dr. Hu, let's go over there and have a look."

　　...

　　 Xia Yu stayed in Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory for nearly an hour.

　　 In this hour, he also got a general idea of ​​the situation in the Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory.

　　 There are currently 37 researchers in Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory, but the staff structure and research direction are somewhat complicated.

In terms of personnel, more than half of them are researchers dug from the mainland. They are generally older. The leading technology man is a 51-year-old professor named Su Mingsheng, from the Third Radio Component Factory in Seoul, Hubei Province. There is a strong strength in the field of machine research and development.

　　 The reason why this old professor was dug into Xiangjiang is very realistic but very helpless.

Because the mainland needs foreign exchange in all aspects, and since the 1960s, the third radio component factory in Seoul, which has been engaged in independent research and development of lithography machines for more than 20 years, was also dismantled because of the lack of national funding support, which led to more than 20 years of technology. R&D stagnated, so Su Mingsheng had nothing to do with what he had learned, and he was dug into Xiangjiang by the Tiangong Technology Laboratory.

From the communication with Su Mingsheng, Xia Yu learned about the independent research and development of the mainland lithography machine. In 1965, the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed the 65-type contact lithography machine. By 1980, Shuimu University had successfully developed it. In the fourth generation, the lithography accuracy reaches 3 microns, which is close to the international mainstream level.

　　 Only now, a few years after dismounting, there has been a generation gap between the mainland and the world.

　　Think about it carefully. Now Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory is still developing a 3-micron chip process technology. In 1980, China mainland was able to independently develop a lithography machine with an accuracy of 3 microns.

　　 And now, it's 1986!

　　 For a moment, Xia Yu regrets, but also feels grateful. Fortunately, he plans to make arrangements.

　　 Although the huge number of scientific research talents accumulated in the mainland has been delayed in recent years, there is definitely some strength, and now he still has time to save them.

　　 Get back to the subject.

　　 At present, Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory is not comprehensive enough due to manpower problems.

　　 Half of the staff, led by Hu Zhengming and Liang Mengsong, are working on the chip manufacturing process.

　　 Some people headed by Su Mingsheng are developing photolithography machines.

　　 Knowing the real situation, Xia Yu had to slightly adjust the plan he had made before coming.

After 　　, Xia Yu called Hu Zhengming, Liang Mengsong, and Su Mingsheng to the conference room, ready to talk to them and consult their opinions.

　　 "I also watched the situation in the laboratory. To be honest, it gave me the impression that there were more defects."

　　 "But the most critical reason is that the goal is not clear enough."

　　 "I have some thoughts, please listen to them first, and then express your own opinions."

　　 Xia Yu paused, took a sip of tea to moisturize his throat, and then spoke slowly.

　　 "In the semiconductor industry, lithography machines and fabs are very important. Without any of these, it is impossible to produce excellent chips."

　　 "But there is another link that is also very important, and that is the design of the chip."

　　 "It's just the current global scale. Basically, chip design and wafer production are in the same company. This has advantages, but there are also disadvantages."

　　 "Just like our laboratory now, all aspects are being researched, but it involves energy and cannot produce results as soon as possible."

　　 "So next, I will set up three companies to correspond to the R&D and production of lithography machines, the R&D and construction of fabs, and the design of chip manufacturing processes."

　　 "The three companies are each responsible for one link of the entire industrial chain and will not get involved in each other."

　　 "The design of the chip manufacturing process is the responsibility of the newly established Tiangong Semiconductor. The Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory also corresponds to this company. Dr. Hu and Dr. Liang, you two are still staying in the Tiangong Semiconductor Laboratory."

　　 "The newly established Tiangong Microelectronics is responsible for the R&D and production of the lithography machine. Another Tiangong Microelectronics Laboratory has been established. Professor Su, you and your team will all be transferred to the Tiangong Microelectronics Laboratory."

　　 "As for the R&D and construction of the final fab, Tiangong Group will not be involved. This piece will be the responsibility of the mainland Kyushu Industrial Group, and a separate Kyushu Semiconductor company will be established there."

　　 "At that time, Tiangong Semiconductor and Tiangong Microelectronics will provide technical guidance to Kyushu Semiconductor."

　　 "What do you think?"

　　 Hu Zhengming and the three looked at each other.

　　 Then Hu Zhengming expressed his opinion: "Chairman, I have no opinion on your deployment. With this division, the whole process is very clear."

　　 "As long as there are enough manpower, I have the confidence to catch up with the most advanced chip manufacturing process."

　　 Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, in terms of manpower, I'll let go. You can dig whoever you want to dig. The group will give you full support. You can do research and development with peace of mind."

　　 "Thank you, Chairman!" Hu Zhengming thanked him with a smile on his face.

　　 Xia Yu looked at Professor Su Mingsheng again.

　　 "Professor Su, what do you think?"

　　 "You don't have to worry about the funding at all. I will not give you any restrictions. I will give you as much as you want. There is no ceiling!"

　　 The thin-looking man supported his glasses and said gratefully: "Chairman, thank you for your support. Since I came here, I have never been restricted by R&D funding."

　　 "I have worked at the third radio factory in Seoul for half my life. Since the construction of the third radio factory in Seoul, I have been there."

　　 "Before there was little communication with the international community, and there was no complete information channel. Although we have developed a self-developed lithography machine, we are not particularly clear about the gap between it and the international community."

　　 "But after coming to Xiangjiang, I understand the international situation, and I feel a lot."

　　 "Foreign technology is very advanced. The United States and the island countries are better than ours, but this does not mean that our researchers are of poor quality."

　　 "It's just being tied down for three reasons: low funding, lack of the most advanced research equipment, and blind command."

　　 "After coming here, these three constraints are gone. This is the research environment that we engaged in scientific research dream of."

　　 "But let me be responsible for making an advanced self-developed lithography machine, and I also face the problem of manpower."

　　 "The R&D field of lithography machine is smaller than the field of chip process technology, and it is more difficult to dig people."

　　 "My personal suggestion is to recruit those people from the mainland. They will definitely not be worse than the people in Britain, the United States, and the island countries."

　　 "Many people who are better than me either go to teach or go to other fields to continue research. This is a waste of talent."

　　 "Either dig them over, or open a branch in the mainland to bring them together and continue to shine."

　　 "My personal preference is to open another branch in the mainland, because I have always had correspondence with my old friends, and I have persuaded them, but only a small number of people have come, and most of them have a prejudice against Xiangjiang."

　　 After speaking, Su Mingsheng looked at Xia Yu expectantly.

　　 Xia Yu thought for a while, looked at Su Mingsheng and said, "Professor Su, the R&D and production of lithography machines must be based on Xiangjiang."

　　 Just when Su Mingsheng was a little disappointed, Xia Yu continued to explain: "You should know that there is a difference between Xiangjiang and the mainland. Don't forget the Batumi Agreement."

　　 "Although Western developed countries have deregulated the mainland, there are still restrictions. This is a bomb."

　　 "On the contrary, Xiangjiang does not have this restriction. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

　　 "Tiangong Microelectronics can only move lightly in Xiangjiang."

　　 Hearing this, Su Mingsheng was silent, his fists clenched unconsciously.

　　 "Many people have never been to Xiangjiang. I can understand that they have prejudice against Xiangjiang."

　　 "I will solve this problem, I will communicate with the mainland, and let the mainland send someone over by force."

　　 "Of course, I will neutralize your suggestions."

　　 "In this way, Tiangong Microelectronics will open another branch in Qianzhou City, whose function is to gather a group of scientists and undertake part of the research as a supplement to this side."

　　 "I will try my best to get the most advanced equipment from the Qianzhou branch."

　　 "What do you think?"

　　 "Thank you, Chairman, I have no other comments." Su Mingsheng said gratefully.

　　 "One more thing, Professor Su, Kyushu Semiconductor needs enough talent support. You have a better understanding of the situation in the mainland semiconductor field. You have to trouble you to recommend some mainland talents. It is best to make a list."

　　 "This is simple, I will make a list as soon as possible." Su Mingsheng replied hurriedly.

　　 "That's it, let's arrange it for the time being."
