Chapter 201 The Competitiveness of Tianke-1
The news about Tianke-1 caused a sensation all over the world, and major chip manufacturers immediately made appointments with Tianqixin Technology for inspection.
Su Xin simply received everyone together.
the next day.
Senior executives from chip manufacturing companies from all over the world gathered in Tianxin Industrial Park.
With Su Xin's status, of course there was no need to receive them in person. He just arranged for Jing Mingdong, the president of Apocalypse Technology, to be responsible for the reception.
In the factory under the name of Tianqixin Technology, everyone visited the finished product of Tianke-1. After some operation demonstrations and Jing Mingdong’s explanation, everyone had a deeper understanding of the technical principles and performance parameters of Tianke-1. .
the most important is.
Tianke-1 does have 3nm accuracy.
And the operational stability is not weaker than ASML’s cutting-edge lithography machines.
This made everyone present moved.
Jing Mingdong took in everyone's expressions and felt proud in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He just smiled and said:
"This Tianke-1 has been operating continuously for five days and has been operating at full capacity without any failure."
"And its production efficiency can process up to 240 pieces of 12-inch wafer products per hour."
"Everyone knows that the surface area of a 12-inch wafer is approximately 70,659 square millimeters. Let's take the Xiangrui 990 chip as an example. Its area is 113.31 square millimeters. If it is 100% utilized, a 12-inch wafer can be divided into 623 chips. Xiangrui 990 chip."
"Of course, such a high utilization rate does not actually exist. After all, chips are square and wafers are round, so there must be leftovers going to waste."
"Taking into account the yield rate, a 12-inch wafer can actually produce about 500 chips."
"According to the production capacity of Tianke-1, it can process 240 12-inch wafers per hour, which works out to... 120,000 Xiangrui 990 chips."
The senior executives who visited the scene couldn't help but shrink their pupils, and then quietly looked at each other.
The production capacity of 240 wafers per hour is already 20% higher than the maximum production capacity of ASML's latest generation EUV lithography machine.
This is a very exaggerated gap.
In the corner of the crowd, Yu Dadong, CEO of the consumer business department of Longwei Group, was full of surprises.
The advent of Tianke No. 1 is a shot in the arm for the entire Longwei Group, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a savior.
Therefore, when he heard the news of the listing of Tianke No. 1 yesterday, he immediately rejected all arrangements and flew to Tianjing urgently to participate in this investigation.
He was mentally prepared before coming. No matter what the flaws of Tianke-1 were, he would purchase at least one to fill the biggest gap in Longwei Group's chip production and allow Longwei Group to have the independent production capacity of high-end chips. From now on, I will no longer be hindered by others.
Looking at it now, Tianke No. 1 not only has no obvious defects, but its production capacity is significantly higher than that of Asimel's cutting-edge lithography machine.
This really made him overjoyed.
In front of the crowd, Jing Mingdong seemed to see Yu Dadong's expression, couldn't help smiling, and continued to say a series of numbers:
"That's 2.88 million pills a day."
"That's 1.05 billion a year."
Every time he heard a number, the corner of Yu Dadong's mouth rose even more.
Although these are just the simplest arithmetic problems, such a huge number brings even greater shock and surprise to people.
Others present were equally shocked.
At this time.
Someone in the crowd murmured:
"With such a high production capacity, five days of trial production at full capacity, what a waste!"
The energy consumption of cutting-edge lithography machines is extremely high, requiring tens of thousands of kilowatt-hours of electricity to produce at full capacity in one day. Coupled with the cost of production materials and labor costs, it can be said that the sound of the machine is worth thousands of dollars.
It is indeed a waste to let Tianke No. 1 be produced at full capacity for five days in order to verify the stability.
But these words still left many people speechless.
Everyone is concerned about the superiority of Tianke No. 1's production capacity, but this guy is concerned about whether the waves are wasted? It's just weird.
Many people suddenly looked at the speaker with strange faces.
Jing Mingdong was also taken aback, then looked at the man, pretending to helplessly spread his hands and smiled wryly:
"No way. In order to verify the stability and train the engineers, the boss specially ordered to keep this Tianke No. 1 running."
"Just waste it. The boss doesn't care about the money. After all, in order to hone the engineers' experience in assembly, debugging and maintenance, the scrapped parts are equivalent to Wutai Tianke No. 1."
These words made many people take a breath of cold air.
A state-of-the-art lithography machine from ASML costs at least 150 million eagle dollars, which sometimes fluctuates due to the price of materials or equipment, and sometimes even reaches 190 million eagle dollars.
No matter what happens, Tian Ke No. 1 can't be much lower than this price.
Even if calculated based on the lowest price of 150 million eagle dollars, Wutai's price is still 750 million eagle dollars.
This translates to 5.2 billion dragon coins.
It is indeed a wealthy Tianqi Group.
Everyone was almost suffocated.
After pretending silently, Jing Mingdong took everyone to visit other workshop departments of Tianqixin Technology Factory.
Then he went to other factories in Tianxin Industrial Park. These factories are supporting companies of Tianke No. 1, and most of them are suppliers.
The entire Tianxin Industrial Park is equivalent to a whole, working closely with each other to process materials or equipment shipped from all over the world layer by layer, and finally produce cutting-edge photolithography machines.
now.
Tianxin Industrial Park also represents the most advanced and high-end polymer among Longguo and even the world's semiconductor manufacturers.
After a visit, everyone's confidence in Tianke-1 has greatly increased, and they are also interested in it.
finally.
Everyone returned to Tianqixin Technology Factory and sat in a conference room.
Jing Mingdong sat in the main seat and said with a smile:
"After the visit and introduction just now, everyone must have a sufficient understanding of Tianke No. 1, so I won't talk nonsense. Each Tianke No. 1 has an ex-factory price of 800 million dragon coins."
"As for specific transportation and after-sales cooperation plans, we can discuss and formulate them separately according to the conditions of each enterprise."
"Apocalypse Technology has officially entered the semiconductor industry. We welcome and look forward to cooperating with every friend."
After hearing the price of 800 million dragon coins, everyone immediately started talking in low voices.
This price is much cheaper than ASML’s 5nm cutting-edge lithography machine, and the Tianke-1 process is more advanced and has higher production capacity.
The competition is too great!
Even though Tianke No. 1 has just been launched and has not yet been tested by the market, and its stability and after-sales needs to be verified, these shortcomings are not worth mentioning in the face of the price of 800 million dragon coins.
What's more, with Su Xin's name on it, everyone won't be too worried. Even if the performance of Tianke-1 is indeed unstable, there will never be any big problems.
If there are any problems, they will definitely be solved.
Yu Dadong from Longwei Group laughed and said:
"Mr. Jing, I am very interested in Tianke-1. If Mr. Jing has time, can we discuss the details of cooperation later?"
