Seven Hundred and Fourteenth: Heaven Asks the Second Generation
"Mr. Zhang, can you arrange a meeting between me and Lin Benjian?"
"No, you really want to dig Lin Benjian?"
"Didn't you say he is a master of technology, of course I want to dig."
"The point is, he may not want to."
Although he lives in the United States, Chen Yu attaches great importance to the lithography machine.
Yesterday, the dean called Chen Yu.
It is a pity.
Various lithography machine companies have no need for financing for the time being.
And even if they want to raise funds, they are not open to domestic companies.
This also gave Chen Yu some headaches.
Since you can't invest in these companies, you can only do it yourself.
Lin Benjian is one of the technical masters he values most.
Taking advantage of the fact that the current lithography machine technology is not too difficult to surpass, it is really possible to catch up with Lin Benjian.
Of course, the other side.
If Lin Benjian is won, this will also eliminate the idea of these lithography machine companies entering the wet process.
As long as they do not enter the wet process, then this leaves a chance for Huanyu Technology to catch up.
"Zhang Zhongmou attaches great importance to Lin Benjian. In addition, TSMC's treatment of Lin Benjian is not thin."
"I know, but I want to chat with him."
"Okay, I'll arrange for you to go to the United States, and you don't want to come back."
"That's fine."
In order not to attract the attention of others, it is better to be on the American side.
A few days later, Chen Yu met Lin Benjian.
"Mr. Lin, I take the liberty to see you this time, I hope you don't mind."
"Actually, I also really want to meet the legendary President Chen.
"
"I am not a legend. I am actually the same as others. It is Mr. Lin's research that I think may affect the entire chip industry."
"You are interested in my wet theory."
"Of course, and I feel that if I were Zhang Zhongmou, I would immediately develop this piece of technology. But it looks like TSMC doesn't have that idea."
Although Chen Yu is not Zhang Zhongmou, things in the industry can be understood just by looking at the trends.
TSMC is a commercial company, they can't possibly take such a big risk.
Of course, TSMC is the same, and so are other companies.
"It seems that Chen always wants to dig me."
Lin Ben asked with a smile.
"you can say it this way."
Chen Yu did not hide: "I am very interested in chips, and at the same time, I am also very interested in lithography machines."
"I don't think it's necessary, you can just do the OEM."
"OEM is just working for others, it's not a solution. Only if you master the core technology, you won't be controlled by you, what do you think."
"I'm sorry, but I don't want to leave TSMC."
Lin Benjian shook his head and refused.
"Mr. Lin, I think that even if you stay at TSMC, under the current situation, it is impossible for your wet process to be promoted. Even, it is impossible to study it. Of course, I know that our strength is still very weak, but I can assure Mr. Lin that as long as Mr. Lin joins our Huanyu Technology, I will definitely give most of my resources to Mr. Lin."
It's just a pity that Lin Benjian still shook his head.
"Sorry, the lithography machine can't be made by me alone. Even if your company invites me over, we may not catch up with other lithography machine companies. Moreover, your company's pressure is not small. According to me, Although your company's Tianwen chip has grabbed some market, other chip companies will soon launch their latest chips."
"Mr. Lin, do you think we can't deal with these chip companies?"
"I am looking forward."
Lin Benjian neither nodded nor shook his head.
Regarding this, Chen Yu was relatively indifferent.
Of course he knew that it was impossible to dig Lin Ben hard today.
If a technology master like Lin Benjian can be dug up in a few words, then a series of other companies will go bankrupt.
But since Lin Benjian is here, this proves that there is a chance.
Moreover, the wet lithography process was invented by Lin Benjin.
As a master of technology, he definitely hopes that his craft can be brought to the world.
It's very tempting.
It's like countless scientists wanting to win the Nobel Prize.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, let's wait until I compete with other chip companies first."
Although the foot digging was unsuccessful, the two of them had a good chat after that.
Chen Yu asked Lin Benjian a lot of questions about the lithography machine.
Lin Benjian on the other side was also very interested in Chen Yu.
"Mr. Chen, in fact, I had a hard time believing that you could enter the chip field."
"We hadn't thought about it before."
"However, you have to be careful. I took a look at your Tianwen chip. Although it is creative, it is likely to be borrowed by other chip manufacturers."
"thanks."
Chen Yu nodded.
Of course he knew that.
However, Chen Yu is also ready for other manufacturers to learn from.
"By the way, before, I don't think you really need to engage in lithography machines. Now that the economy is globalized, no one company can produce everything."
"Mr. Lin, I agree with what you said. To be honest, if there is no problem with the world economy like this, we certainly don't want to do it. But what if one day a company announces that it will not sell lithography machines to us?"
"It's unlikely, everyone wants to make money, and these companies produce lithography machines to make money."
"If this is the case, why did the lithography opportunity purchased by Center International be produced in 1998?"
It's 2005 now.
The process of 1998 was sold in 2005, which is two generations behind TSMC.
Lin Benjian didn't know what to say.
Of course he understood that.
This is the West's ban on equipment and technology on the Chinese side.
You don't have to be rich, you can buy high-end gear.
But Lin Benjian also believes that, even so, Huanyu Technology does not necessarily need to develop a lithography machine.
Because even if Huanyu Technology wants to do it, they may not be able to do it.
Moreover, it is worse than the lithography machine bought.
In addition, he will spend more money than you can think of in it.
Although Huanyu Technology makes money, it has been investing in these semiconductor industries, and even the richest companies can't stand it.
Just like Microsoft.
Microsoft is so rich, have they entered the semiconductor industry?
Did not enter.
It's not that they don't want to get in, it's that they don't have the money.
Of course, if you have money, everything is easy to solve.
But the problem is, there is always a limit to your money.
"Mr. Lin, I'm here today. Although I didn't get Mr. Lin, I think it's possible for us to work together in the future."
"Mr. Chen, I advise you to give up this idea. From a probabilistic point of view, there really isn't much chance."
"Since it's a probability, doesn't that mean there's still a chance?"
"Haha, Mr. Chen, if it's really possible, I think our cooperation will be very pleasant."
"I think so."
Although it was not possible to dig Lin Benjian, today's goal has been achieved.
After breaking up with Lin Ben, Chen Yu called He Tingbo in China.
"Tingbo, how is the second generation of our God?"
"Mr. Chen, you can hold a press conference at any time."
"Well."
Chen Yu nodded: "Motorola will release the latest chip next week, and we will release it on the same day as them."
"No problem, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
He Tingbo said excitedly.
