Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 147 Inspecting the factory, the photomask is about to be released

“Brother Chen, I can only help you so far. Recently, those living surveillance cameras in the Netherlands are keeping tabs on people 24 hours a day. There is really no way to continue to produce Qingzhou chips.”

As the chip raw materials ordered by Chen Xing began to arrive, Dutch engineers at Loongson International’s chip factory gradually became vigilant.

Since the last drunken incident drove away nearly half of the Dutch engineers, there were about 2 hours in the early morning to secretly produce chips, but now that they are on duty 24 hours a day, Gao Yongming is also helpless

Sitting in his office, Chen Xing responded with a calm expression:”It’s understandable. The raw materials for the chips here are arriving one after another. Brother Gao, it’s normal for you to tighten up.””

“It’s good if you can understand”

Gao Yongming breathed a sigh of relief and said

The two did not communicate by phone, but used video calls that were just launched on WeChat.

With the development of technology, WeChat has supported multi-person video conferencing, which also provides a lot of convenience for the”domestic alliance”

No one knows if there are paparazzi near your company. Using video conferencing, you can start a meeting without leaving home.

As for the security of data and information, Penguin is still very secure, and Xiao Ma’s position has always been very clear.

“correct”

Gao Yongming changed the topic and continued to ask:”How is your 48-nanometer photolithography machine? Have the photomasks for the Kaitian baseband chip been produced? If there is a shortage of manpower, I can arrange for some people to come there.”

“I haven’t had time to ask yet, but based on the dates, it’s pretty much the same. As for manpower, we should have enough here.”

Chen Xing smiled lightly and said

Since he stocked up on enough Qingzhou chips, his operating space has become much larger.

Doesn’t the West want to prove itself?

Then he will prove it to himself!

It is difficult to produce Qingzhou chips, but there is no problem with Kaitian baseband chips. It can be done with multiple exposure technology.

“That’s good”

Gao Yongming nodded slightly and continued:”The SOC God chip mask is almost out. According to your request, four photomasks will be split. It’s up to you whether I can continue to hide it.”

Chen Yong’s photolithography machine uses a 48-nanometer process. If he wants to make a 14-nanometer SOC chip, he needs to go through four exposures, and each exposure corresponds to a different photomask.

If you want to completely hide Loongson International, you must independently produce SOC God chips. Only by attracting enough attention from the West can the private supply line be safer.

“Thank you, Brother Gao”

“Then I won’t disturb your work. When the photomask of the SOC God chip is completed, I will have someone send it to you.”

“Then we’ll talk”

“Chat back”

After hanging up the video call, Chen Xing put the phone screen on the table

The technology sharing of new process semiconductor silicon wafers has allowed the entire domestic alliance members to see benefits and cakes

Chen Xing really didn’t draw a cake

This man really wants to expand the market

Because of the interest chain, Gao Yongming, Yu Yuehui, Ren Guofei, and even Rebus and Zhang Yingguang, billionaire bosses, now treat Chen Xing as brothers.

no doubt

this is a great thing

In the business circle of Dragon Kingdom, there are actually not many alliances like this.

For example, the Taishan Club and the Chaoshan Gang are among the top business contacts of the Dragon Kingdom, and they sign up together to make money from market users.

As long as the”domestic alliance” continues to develop, it is guaranteed to be the third top business network in the Dragon Kingdom.

Of course

These are all things for later!

For now, Chen Xing’s first task is to complete self-certification and let the secret of Loongson International continue to be hidden.

The Geek X1 has just been pre-sold, and it can still be delayed for a while. If the SOC God Chip counts the time, it can be produced within the planned time.

unless…

Photomask production failed…

However, this is basically impossible. The SOC God chip split into four pieces and the photomask are not difficult to produce. According to the level of Loongson International, it is basically impossible to fail.

As soon as the four photomasks arrive, Chen Yong’s 48nm process lithography machine can play its role.

In addition to the chip field, Chen Xing has also just completed the corresponding layout in the field of drones and battery energy.

In the field of drones, he invested 63 million and successfully acquired 31% of the shares of Frontier Technology Company, becoming the company’s second largest shareholder.

Don’t underestimate this 31% stake. As long as there is no deviation in the development of territorial drones, this will be a cash cow in the future.

As for the battery energy field, red quality talents have also arrived and been assigned to the battery laboratory in SEG Technology Park.

Regarding the achievements in the battery field, Chen Xing does not expect it to break through in a short time, but if it does break through one day, it will be the time for the market to be completely reshuffled.

But now, you still need to go to Guancheng first to check the factory’s parts procurement status and Qingzhou chip inventory, and also take a look at the blue and green chip factory.

……

Shencheng and Guancheng are”neighbors”. Chen Xing arrived at his factory in Guancheng in less than an hour’s drive

Ever since he annexed the production line of Xu Jinshui’s Pineapple Company, opened the Star Flash fast charging production line, and completed the infrastructure construction, he hasn’t been here for a long time.

The car just drove into the industrial park and before it could stop, the factory director Yang Minshuo came with several senior executives to greet him.

When Chen Xing turned off the engine and got out of the car, Yang Minshuo, a former shareholder of Longxing Technology Company who had followed Chen Yapeng for many years, quickly greeted him:”Welcome, Mr. Young, to inspect the factory.””

“welcome president”

“Welcome the president to inspect the work”

Because Chen Xing had greeted him in advance, several people also greeted him with smiles on their faces.

Longxing Technology Company is developing so fast, their status is also rising, and their wages have also been significantly improved.

Especially for his old subordinates such as Yang Minshuo, Zhang Heting, and Zhou Zhaoji who were relieved of their equity interests, Chen Xing raised their salaries to 100,000 a month, which is equivalent to an annual salary of one million

“You’re welcome”

Chen Xing looked towards the direction of the warehouse and continued:”I stopped by to take a look. Have the chips been counted?”

“all done”

While Yang Minshuo responded, he made a gesture of invitation and added:”Young Master, please come here, we will just do the inventory with you.””

“Um”

Chen Xing did not refuse

He stopped by this time just to see the operating conditions of the Guancheng factory. He is not just someone who reads reports.

When the four of them moved to the warehouse where chips were stacked, a factory executive quickly opened the rolling shutter door.

Chen Xing also remembered him. He was one of the dozen workers who secretly produced the brilliant X1 mobile phone in the early morning. It was obvious that he was promoted by Yang Minshuo.

“Hua Hua Hua——”

The rolling shutter door makes a loud noise

When it is completely folded, the scene inside comes into view

This warehouse covers an area of approximately 4,000 square meters, and each stacking area is clearly marked with text.

loadAdv(7,3);

Walking into the Qingzhou chip area of the warehouse, Chen Xing saw a mountain of cardboard boxes. Yang Minshuo immediately explained the situation:”This is the Qingzhou chip stacking area. There are a total of 417 packaging boxes, each box containing 1,000 chips. That is to say 417,000 Qingzhou chips”

While speaking, he winked at the two executives next to him.

The two executives were also very understanding. They immediately opened two boxes of chips each and asked Chen Xing to check whether there were any missing quantities.

After Chen Xing carefully checked and opened a box of chips, he nodded and said:”The number is correct, how many baseband chips are left in Kaitian?”

“As for Kaitian baseband chips, there are less than 5,000 left.”

Yang Minshuo responded quickly

Ever since TSMC announced that it would stop foundry manufacturing, Kaitian baseband chips have been unable to make ends meet. Even though Loongson International will bring in a batch from time to time, it is still not enough.

Because the Longxing X1 mobile phone sells so well and the factory has a large production capacity, if it is fully produced, it will consume more than 100,000 chips a day. How can Loongson International dare to produce 100,000 chips in a single day? It can only supply 10,000 or 20,000 chips every once in a while. In response to emergencies, we mainly produce Qingzhou chips.

After confirming the situation in the warehouse, Chen Xing nodded slightly and said:”I will restore supply as soon as possible. Let’s go to the production workshop to have a look.”

“Okay Mr. Young”

The four of them went around again and inspected several production workshops.

In addition to the mobile phone production workshop, other Star Flash fast chargers, radiators, and wired headphones are all in normal production.��

Since chips have been restricted and there are 1,700 workers in the factory, Chen Xing simply asked them to take their place in other positions for a period of time. Not to mention, the effect was surprisingly good.

At least when they can’t produce mobile phones, they can also produce other accessories, and the process is pretty much the same.

Longxing Technology has no worries about selling mobile phone accessories such as Star Flash fast charging, radiators, and wired headphones, especially Star Flash fast charging.

After inspecting the last employee dormitory, Chen Xing looked at Yang Minshuo and praised:”The factory is well managed. It can be seen that you manage it with intention.”

“They are all taught well by Young President”

While Yang Minsuk is humble, he also doesn’t forget to flatter him.

The two executives did not hesitate for a moment and quickly agreed:

“That’s right, our factory director always keeps your words in mind, CEO, so that we can keep the factory in order.”

“Only when the upper beams are upright can the lower beams be upright. The factory director can do this without your strategic vision and guidance, CEO.”

Listening to the flattery of the three people, Chen Xing smiled lightly and said:”Okay, don’t flatter me anymore. Since the Guancheng factory is on track, you can keep up your efforts. I’ll leave first.””

“Leaving so soon? Yang Minshuo was stunned and quickly expressed his position:”I just ordered a table at Guancheng Hotel.”…”

“You’re welcome”

Chen Xing shook his head and said frankly:”I came here to inspect just on the way. I will visit the Blue and Green Factory’s industrial park later.””

“This…okay”

Yang Minshuo didn’t force it either.

He knows how to do things appropriately. Since Chen Xing said he was going to the Blue and Green Factory, he must be negotiating business with them.

We haven’t even talked about the business yet, but if we force you to have a meal, that would be very ignorant of the world.

But in the end he still said,”How about I drive?”

Chen Xing shook his head, not wanting to reveal the location of the blue and green factory’s photolithography factory, and repeatedly refused:”Just run the factory well, the company’s year-end bonus will not be missing for you.””

After taking out the year-end bonus, Yang Minshuo and the other three immediately beamed with joy and bid farewell to Chen Xing as he left the Guancheng production factory.

……

the other side

Blue and Green Factory Chip Production Base

Wearing a white coat and dyed yellow hair, Lin Tian personally produces photomasks.

Different from chip lithography, photomasks are produced by electron beam direct writing, which also takes a long time.

The Kaitian baseband chip is 28 nanometers, and the photolithography machine that Chen Yong cracked is a 48 nanometer process, so two photomasks are needed.

When Lin Tian writes equipment programs and produces photomasks, he is always followed by a group of engineers who”steal their skills from others”

Blue and Green Factory is so short of talent!

In other words, local companies in Longguo are too short of talents, especially the corresponding talents in various aspects of chip production.

Now that there are ready-made teachers, Chen Yong and Duan Yongping will naturally not let go of the opportunity to have sex for nothing, so the engineers will keep an eye on them.

Lin Tian didn’t care at all about these followers.

The technology of photomask production is something he doesn’t even bother to play with. Now he, a real man, only thinks about small particle accelerators and building photolithography factories.

“Chief Lin, I would like to ask, if defects are found during tape-out inspection, can they be repaired?”

“White defect or black defect?”

“Less chromium defect”

“That is a white defect, which can be repaired by laser-induced chemical deposition.”

“What is this operation?”

When Lin Tian answered the question, the phone in his pocket vibrated. He took out his phone to check whose message it was.

next second

His eyes brightened slightly, he looked sideways at the engineer and said,”I’ll explain it to you later. I’m going to pick up someone outside now.””

After saying these words, Lin Tianhuo left the photomask production area and came to the parking lot of the chip base.

The moment he saw Chen Xing, he raised his voice several times and said:”oi! You are finally here, it’s almost boring here.”

“Is the photomask done?”

Chen Xing smiled lightly and said

Lin Tian shook his head and complained helplessly:”There are still about seven or eight days to go. The equipment here is worse than that of Loongson International. Calling it an antique is considered a compliment.”

Chen Xing:”Then I’m still early”

“You’re not early, you’re just right. If you don’t come, I’ll be asked if I’m crazy. There’s a bunch of curious babies here.”

While Lin Tian was vomiting his bitterness, he asked:”How is the small particle accelerator? I can wait until the flowers have withered.”

“After buying it, Longke Academy came forward”

As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, Lin Tian said in disbelief:”Good guy, Dragon Academy came forward to place the order. President, you have great connections!”

“Bai Yan was used as a coolie in exchange.”Chen Xing didn’t hide anything and said jokingly

“No wonder”

Lin Tian suddenly realized

He knew that Chen Xingcao was just a man. How could he have any connections in the sky to get the Long Academy of Sciences to come forward? As expected, he had to exchange things.

The two chatted and laughed, walked into the chip production base of the Blue and Green Factory, visited the production environment, put on dustproof clothes and took a look at the 48nm process lithography machine in the clean room.

It’s different from the one on the books. Chen Yong seems to have built another photolithography machine.

This means that the blue and green factory already has two 48nm process DUV lithography machines, which is good news.

After Chen Yong, the boss of Blue and Green Factory, received the news of Chen Xing’s visit, he immediately drove from the company to the chip production base.
