¡°Obviously, the supermarket proprietress is a fan of the album and also a fan of Qin Yunzi.
Until now, Chen Yao doesn¡¯t think he is a star. He inexplicably filmed a music video with Qin Yunzi. How come it became so popular?
Hearing the boss lady say that there are celebrities here, the eyes of the people around him came over one after another.
Chen Yao was a little uncomfortable with this feeling, and he was too embarrassed to accept the gift from the landlady. He bought an extra bottle of facial cleanser, turned around and walked out of the supermarket quickly to go home.
When I got home, I put the shampoo and facial cleanser I just bought on the shelf, then turned on the shower head of the water heater and started washing my hair and taking a shower.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Yao walked out of the bathroom refreshed and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Looking at the TV, the album has finished playing.
Music is just a hobby, not a profession. Chen Yao¡¯s real profession is still a scientific and technological worker.
Opened the email client on the phone and checked the email.
Just now, an email came from Guan Xin Research and Development.
She said that the fab¡¯s first 12-inch wafer production line will be put into operation tomorrow, and the chairman must go back.
The speed is quite fast. The previous wafer fab could only produce 8-inch wafers. Now, not long after the acquisition, it has been upgraded to 12-inch.
Chen Yao quickly clicked on the keyboard to reply to her - I will definitely go back tomorrow.
¡¡
A one-stop semiconductor company.
Chen Yao wears a mask and an anti-static worker uniform while walking in the factory's production workshop.
There was a beautiful woman walking beside her, also wearing a mask. She was still so beautiful even in a worker¡¯s uniform, the senior Guan Xinyan.
The production workshop is a busy scene, and workers are operating laser cutting machines to slice wafer rods.
During this period, Guan Xinyan was busy with the 12-inch wafer production line. Fortunately, everything went smoothly and the 12-inch wafer was finally put into production successfully.
Chen Yao turned his head and looked at her: "Thank you for your hard work, senior."
"I don't see you often, and I don't know where you are running to?" Guan Xinyan glared.
Chen Yao did not respond to her words, but took a wafer rod from the blue-collar worker's hand. It was cylindrical and was exactly 12 inches.
If you want to make chips, wafers are essential. The more mainstream sizes internationally are 8 inches and 12 inches. Theoretically, the bigger the wafers, the better.
What¡¯s the benefit? It can reduce production costs, and after being made into chips, the price will be lower.
For a mobile phone, chip cost often accounts for a large proportion, and semiconductor manufacturers will find ways to reduce costs.
Now 70% of the world¡¯s wafers are 12-inch, but 8-inch has not been eliminated yet. The reason is that 8-inch has low technical difficulty and still has great market value in some fields.
"The successful production of 12-inch wafers means that our company has achieved world-class levels in wafer production."
Guan Xinyan feels a little proud.
This is not an easy task. I have worked hard for such a long time and finally received good results.
The semiconductor giants in the world today, such as Intel, Samsung, etc., can achieve a maximum of 12 inches.
As for larger wafers, that is, those with a diameter of 18 inches, the entire semiconductor industry is currently relatively pessimistic, and it feels that it will be difficult to produce them quantitatively within ten or twenty years.
Technology is not the biggest reason, the biggest reason is that the investment is too high.
An 18-inch wafer production line is expected to cost US$10 billion.
With the upgrading of wafers, equipment manufacturers upstream and downstream of the entire semiconductor industry have to invest a lot of money in R&D upgrades, with the entire industry investing at least hundreds of billions of dollars.
No giant can afford such a huge capital investment.
Once upgraded from 8 inches to 12 inches, the entire semiconductor industry went through a painful process.
Although we finally saw that the upgrade was successful, 12-inch is now the mainstream and the most profitable.
But this painful process is a bit long, and no one in the industry dares to do it anyway.
And Chen Yao dares to do it and wants to be an industry pioneer!
??For nearly a hundred years, the United States has dominated the process of the world's semiconductor industry.
Today, it¡¯s time for this pattern to be reversed!
As for the cost issue, Chen Yao has set up a laboratory to study the cost issue of 18-inch wafers to minimize the cost of the industry online and downstream.
The so-called tens of billions of investment in production lines and hundreds of billions of industry investments are all Western data.
As long as many equipment are domestically produced, the cost can be greatly reduced.
It¡¯s like ASML¡¯s most high-end EUV lithography machine, which costs US$120 million per unit.
After achieving localization, Chen Yao directly reduced the price of the lithography machine to less than 30 million US dollars, which was only a quarter of his price.
Chen Yao asked as he walked: "Sister, how is the current order volume of Jinglong lithography machines?"
Guan Xinyan said: "The top five chip foundries in the world are already our customers. It is expected that the orders of photolithography machines received by our company this year will surpass ASML."
When the people around heard it, everyone had a happy smile on their face. It is not easy for the national industry to reach this point.
Jinglong¡¯s photolithography machines are not only low-priced, but also high-tech and very efficient. It takes 18 months to place an order for ASML¡¯s photolithography machine to receive the goods.
¡°The Jinglong lithography machine can arrive in half a year.
Naturally, manufacturers are more willing to use Jinglong¡¯s photolithography machines.
Of course, in order not to be surpassed by opponents, the team is also accelerating research and development, and the photolithography machine that supports 1nm chips is about to be mass-produced.
¡°Subsequently, Chen Yao and Guan Xinyan walked out of the factory, took off their masks, and changed into workers¡¯ uniforms.
meeting room.
Business owners from upstream and downstream of the semiconductor industry are here. At this moment, they are waiting for Chen Yao to come over with the air conditioner blowing on in the conference room.
Today, his status in the industry is very high.
Chen Yao pushed open the glass door and walked in with Guan Xinyan.
The bosses of semiconductor companies stood up one after another and walked over to shake hands with him.
¡°Hello, boss, hello, boss!¡± Bosses in their forties or fifties greeted Chen Yao one after another.
Chen Yao smiled lightly: "I am too young in this industry, you are the bosses!"
"No, you are the real boss!" the boss said seriously.
Chen Yao¡¯s work in semiconductors has not only strengthened his own company, but also helped domestic upstream and downstream semiconductor companies improve.
Take this time¡¯s 12-inch wafers as an example, all production equipment and components are completely domestically produced.
??A production line completely controlled by the Chinese, getting rid of dependence on the United States.
??Reverse the world structure, the beginning of a new era!
Chen Yao cleared his throat and said, "We have made amazing breakthroughs in some key semiconductor equipment!"
"In the future, our country will lead the world's chip development and become an industrial power, with you and me!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
