Chapter 1296: Recruiting Chip Talents!

October 8, 1990.

Monday.

The Yanjing Asian Games officially ended last night.

In this era, it still caused a great sensation, which has certain benefits for domestic sports and Yanjing's international influence.

Of course, the world is now very keen on hosting various sports games.

At this time, Yang Ming is ready to return to Hong Kong.

Before leaving Yanjing, these days, Yang Ming stayed in Yanjing for a few days except for his hometown in his previous life, and he always met with the old man and Mr. Jiang.

Now, Yang Ming and others finished breakfast in the courtyard and took a car to Yanjing International Airport.

Just arrived there.

Mr. Shen, Secretary Li and others are already waiting here.

The old man and Mr. Jiang are not easy to show up, so they sent them here in person. After shaking hands with them, Yang Ming got on the private plane.

This time, people like Yang Jirong and his wife, Sarah, Diana, Deng Liyun, Nakamori Mingcai and others went to see various major attractions in Yanjing. Yang Jirong and his wife had been there before, and now they feel different when they go to see those attractions again.

Three and a half hours.

Yang Ming's private plane landed safely at Kai Tak International Airport in Hong Kong.

Yang Ming got off the private plane and took a car directly back to the Empire Group's headquarters.

Back to the Empire Group's headquarters.

It was almost time to get off work in the morning.

Although Yang Ming had eaten something on the plane, he still went to the company cafeteria with He Chaoxun and others to have lunch.

In the afternoon.

Yang Ming received a call from Yuan Tianfan who was far away in Silicon Valley.

Yang Ming was really shocked and excited to hear the news.

Because he knew what it meant.

Compared with Xu Qingsheng's poaching of Japanese game talents such as Nakanishi Akio, Matsushita Masato, and Miyamoto Shigeru in Japan, now Yuan Tianfan has poached those talents as he said, so he will definitely play an extremely important role in semiconductor chips.

All along.

Yang Ming feels that professionals do professional things, and doing things this way will be twice as effective with half the effort, and the success rate will be higher.

Today, Yang Ming established the Hong Kong Science Park.

In addition to having a large number of semiconductor-related industrial chains, Yang Ming has been looking for and digging for some of the most critical management talents.

Three years ago.

Zhang Zhongmou of Taiwan has already established TSMC in the Xinzhu Technology Park in Taiwan.

In addition to Zhang Zhongmou, many management talents who have played an important role in TSMC in history are actually still in the United States, so this is also the best opportunity for Yang Ming to dig them out.

However, I don’t know if digging these people this time will be like digging up the future roots of TSMC, and whether it will be a big blow to the Xinzhu Technology Park.

"Lin Xiuzhi, tomorrow morning, we will go to the airport to pick them up in person."

"Boss, are you going with us?"

"Yes, let's go together."

Now I'm afraid that the whole world doesn't know the role and importance of these people in the future chips.

For Yang Ming, chips and semiconductors are a trump card in future technology, even nuclear weapons. If they can control most of the market, what will it mean to Hong Kong and the Empire Group in the future.

. . .

Rest for a night.

Early the next morning.

Yang Ming and others had a simple breakfast, took Alina and Yingla, and then drove to the new Hong Kong International Airport.

At this time, He Chaoxun and Lin Xiuzhi had already taken a car to the new Hong Kong International Airport in advance.

When Yang Ming and others arrived there, it was still half an hour before these people arrived in Hong Kong.

Yang Ming, He Chaoxun, Lin Xiuzhi, Yingla, Alina and others were waiting here.

Half an hour later.

A plane flying directly from San Francisco to Hong Kong landed safely at the new Hong Kong International Airport.

After getting off the plane, Yang Ming was waiting for seven of them.

One of them was Zhang Rujing.

Before that, he worked at Texas Instruments for a long time.

Historically, Zhang Rujing was not completely from TSMC, but he held shares in TSMC at the time.

Zhang Rujing and TSMC's founder Zhang Zhongmou had both worked at Texas Instruments, which was the leader in the global semiconductor field at the time and had a dominant position in many products and technologies.

Zhang Rujing first worked with Kilby, the inventor of the integrated circuit, for four years. Then the financial crisis hit, and he took the opportunity to retire early and came to Taiwan to join World Semiconductor.

The reason why he gave up his right to live in the United States and came to Taiwan has a lot to do with his family.

Zhang Rujing's parents experienced the Anti-Japanese War. The couple once worked in the Chongqing Arsenal to transport ammunition for the front-line battles.

After the end of the Huaihai Campaign, Zhang Rujing and his family went to Taiwan. After graduating from Taiwan University, Zhang Rujing also went to the United States for further studies, became a citizen of the United States, and later joined Texas Instruments.

Zhang Rujing's father always hoped that he would go to the mainland to develop and contribute to the semiconductor industry in the mainland. Therefore, helping the development of domestic semiconductors seems to have become Zhang Rujing's destiny.

It is worth noting that although Zhang Rujing is a citizen of the United States, he retains his Taiwan household registration.

After joining World Semiconductor, he reorganized the management and issued many instructions. He plans to build World Semiconductor's first and second factories in Taiwan, and the third to tenth factories will be built in the mainland.

The Taiwanese authorities knew the money-making power of the semiconductor industry and refused to allow Zhang Rujing to go to the mainland to develop semiconductors. So they threatened the World University Group to force Zhang Rujing to stay in Taiwan, and Zhang Rujing temporarily gave up his plan to go to the mainland.

In more than two years, World Advanced reached 30% of TSMC's production capacity and started to make profits in the third year. At this time, TSMC began to plot to acquire and merge World Advanced.

Zhang Zhongmou approached Zhang Rujing to propose an acquisition plan, but Zhang Rujing refused.

Then TSMC bypassed Zhang Rujing and found World Advanced's shareholders, offering a high price for the acquisition. World Advanced's shareholders agreed, and it was too late for Zhang Rujing to stop it.

Zhang Rujing simply insisted on his own way. He gave up all the shares he held after TSMC acquired World Advanced, and moved from Taiwan to Shanghai with his family and more than 400 engineers from Texas Instruments and World Advanced, and founded the later Z Core International.

Of course, these are all Zhang Rujing in history.

At this time, Zhang Rujing had not returned to Taiwan, but he had already shown his unique vision in chips.

This time, Yuan Tianfan had spent a long time to dig him out.

In the end, Zhang Rujing came to Hong Kong instead of returning to Taiwan.

So, when Yang Ming saw Zhang Rujing now, he was actually not young anymore.

However, Zhang Rujing dared not underestimate the young man in front of him.

Sir Yang, Chairman of Empire Group.

In addition to Zhang Rujing.

There are six other people.

These six people are also very extraordinary.

Historically, Lin Benjian, Yang Guanglei, Jiang Shangyi, Sun Yuancheng, Liang Mengsong, and Yu Zhenhua, who are known as the "Six Knights of TSMC R&D", have left a strong and indispensable key mark in the development of TSMC.

Historically, these six people have a great influence in the chip industry, especially Liang Mengsong, who is more famous.

At this time, although the TSMC in Taiwan has been established, these six knights have not returned to Taiwan.

This time, they were all persuaded by Yuan Tianfan and were all willing to leave the United States and join the Hong Kong Semiconductor Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Group.
