Daguo Science and Technology started from the copycat system

Although the Sugon S1 mobile phone is not as good as the Sugon S2 smart phone, it can still get a lot of sales after upgrading it.

After all, many people like flip phones in this era. As long as the price is a little cheaper than the Sugon S2 smartphone, the final sales volume must not be too low.

"Okay, let's go back to the topic, which is about how much money to invest in research and development of semiconductor production equipment and the acquisition of domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies."

Hearing what Lin Chen said, the senior executives of Sugon Technology at the scene naturally had no opinion.

At this time, as the person in charge of Sugon R\u0026D Center, Ni Guangnan, although he really hoped to spend 25 billion US dollars to develop semiconductor chip production equipment and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies.

But he can't be so selfish. The research and development of semiconductor production equipment and the acquisition of domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies can't seriously hinder the overall development speed of Sugon Technology, so Ni Guangnan said slowly:

"We are asking for money everywhere now. It is not impossible to spend 25 billion US dollars a year to develop semiconductor equipment and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies. The current annual profit of 70 million high-end mobile phones can support it.

But in the case of development everywhere, spend most of the profits to research and develop semiconductor production equipment and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies, then other things will not be able to develop due to lack of money.

In this case, I think it is possible to reduce the funds a little bit. As for the specific reduction, it is up to Lin Chen to decide. "

At this time, Ni Guangnan also breathed a sigh of relief after finishing speaking.

Although he has a dream of becoming a chip powerhouse, he dreams of making Daxia's chips rise and Daxia's computer CPU defeating Intel's CPU.

But you can’t be so selfish. You can’t use most of Sugon’s profits to develop semiconductor production equipment and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies. After all, the development of other things requires money everywhere.

So Ni Guangnan finally suggested to reduce R\u0026D funds a little bit, which can be regarded as worthy of his conscience and worthy of his dream.

At this time, when people heard what Ni Guangnan said, they all turned their attention to Lin Chen, wanting to see what Lin Chen had to say.

In this regard, Lin Chen did not directly say whether to reduce the research and development funds after people's attention came, but said seriously:

"First of all, we must attach great importance to the development of mobile phone chips, because the performance of this mobile phone chip can be said to determine whether Sugon Technology will continue to win or fail in the future.

Our Sugon S2 smartphone is very powerful, whether it is the screen, lens or other aspects of the phone. It can be said that our Sugon S2 smartphone is very powerful, and the technology of some mobile phone parts and accessories is at least 3 years ahead of the West.

However, mobile phone processors are our biggest weakness. Sugon Technology can only produce 130nm mobile phone chips. Compared with 90nm, there is a three-fold difference in the number of transistors at 130nm.

That is to say, the size of the same Pentium 4 computer CPU can achieve 50 million transistors with a 130-nanometer process technology, but 150 million transistors can be achieved with a 90-nanometer process technology!

The gap brought about by the three times the number of transistors is too terrifying. If we can't quickly solve the problem of 90nm process technology.

The final result must be that other people's mobile phone processors have super-fast response speed no matter what they do because of their powerful performance, richer game content and graphics, and can support large-scale 3D games and so on.

Under this huge performance gap, our Sugon S2 smartphone sales will definitely suffer a huge setback.

At that time, not to mention the further sales, it would be difficult to maintain the current annual sales of 70 million. "

Having said this, Lin Chen continued amidst the silence of the people:

"Of course, you can also say that since we can't produce 90nm mobile phone chips, why not find TSMC, Sanxing, Tailiandian, Texas Instruments and other chip foundries to manufacture 90nm mobile phone chips for us.

But I want to say that we can’t look at Western companies too well. If you look at the history of the rise of Western technology companies, you will find that they will not compete with you honestly.

They are also very good at engaging in all kinds of out-of-the-way methods, such as the last time the four major mobile phone giants launched a restricted sale of mid-to-high-end mobile phone accessories.

And it is an indisputable fact that we are competitors with TSMC, TSLC, Texas Instruments, Sanxing Electronics and even other chip foundries.

If they are really allowed to produce 90nm mobile phone chips for us, we will have no way to find out if they plant mines in our mobile phone chips.

As for the consequences of their burying mines, let me briefly talk about them. The means of burying mines is nothing more than leaving hardware bugs in our mobile phone processors or leaving "God's instructions" secret door.

Among them, the hardware BUG is okay to say, we can fix it through the system software level.

Once they plant a "God command" secret door in our mobile phone processor, then this "God command" secret door can put us on the verge of bankruptcy!

Because there is such a secret door of "God's order", the commercial departments of Meidi country and other countries can completely refuse our mobile phones for sale on the grounds of safety hazards, and also order us to return the products and refund them.

Of course, even if the United States and other countries do not do that, our problematic mobile phones must be recalled and replaced with new mobile phone processors, unless we do not want to continue selling our mobile phones in those countries.

You can imagine that if this kind of thing really happens, how much labor cost will it cost to replace the mobile phone processor in the future, and then what is the use of the recycled mobile phone processor?

In the end, don't those recycled mobile phone processors have to be destroyed? And how much of a hit it would be to our brand image..."

Hearing Lin Chen pointing out all kinds of insidious and dirty things in the chip foundry, all the senior executives at the scene turned their backs.

Only then did they realize that the original chip foundry could cheat people like this. Although doing so was a bit unethical, it would also make the chip foundry notorious.

But as long as there are enough interests, it is really possible for chip foundries such as TSMC to do such a thing.

So the final word is, if there are enough short-term and long-term benefits as a guarantee, then why not TSMC directly exploiting Sugon Technology? !

At this time, Lin Chen continued in the process of chilling behind the senior executives at the scene:

"As for spending 25 billion US dollars to develop semiconductor production equipment and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies, then there is no need to worry about delaying the company's development.

Because of the 25 billion US dollars, I am not going to use so much money from the current profit income to engage in semiconductor equipment research and development and acquire domestic and foreign semiconductor equipment companies.

After all, let's not talk about other things, we still owe the bank a loan of 30 billion Xia Yuan, so let's pay off the loan first and then plan other things. "

Hearing Lin Chen's words, the people at the scene looked at Lin Chen in amazement.

Their focus is not on paying off the $30 billion in loans. (end of this chapter)
