Chapter 1155 The Two Legs of the Semiconductor Foundry Industry

A half-dead project was revived in the blink of an eye.

Witnessing the increasingly heated atmosphere at the press conference, Figo and Howard looked at each other, speechless.

At this point, if the two of them still can't figure out some tricks, they have spent so many years in the financial capital circle in vain.

As aristocratic children who grew up in the Western world, the two of them never imagined that imitation could be a technical activity.

I have been tinkering with the same fundamentals of a project for a long time with great ambition, but in the end it was in jeopardy.

The result is handed over to other people's hands, and it is simply changed with a new head, a different face, and a new appearance. Relying on just a few words, I can integrate the interests of the political and business circles, and then use them to my advantage, and then become a powerful force to promote the project.

This looks simple, but the doorway inside is not simple at all.

Figo thought about it and looked at Wu Tao, who was sitting in the front row. The press conference was obviously well prepared, but he seemed to have no intention of speaking on stage.

On the contrary, Director Zhang, who had previously respected him very much, came on stage and gave a passionate but empty speech with honor...

Before Director Zhang finished speaking, Figo couldn't help but stand up and leave.

There is no point in reading any more. It is time to go back and think about ways to promote financial and investment business in China.

Wu Tao, on the other hand, stayed until the end of the press conference, gave a thumbs up to Pei Ying who came down from the stage, and was then politely cleared away by Jason.

An old man and a young boy were walking in the deserted corridor. Wu Tao smiled and said, "Jason, you deliberately wanted to teach me a lesson, but he left before get out of class ended."

At first, Jason Morgan denied it flatly: "What class? It doesn't exist, Wu! Besides, Panis will not give you a penny less for this consulting fee."

Okay, take money to shut yourself up? Seeing that the consulting fee was pretty good, Wu Tao simply stopped talking.

I hope that when the time comes to pay the consulting fee, you, a bad old man, won’t feel bad...

However, Wu Tao had to admit that Jason, a bad old man, was very generous when it came to money.

Although with his current net worth, he wouldn't be interested in this consulting fee.

The two walked out of the conference center and got into the car. Wu Tao's thoughts had already turned to the semiconductor industry.

He has been thinking about this for a while, and is really troubled by the current situation.

In the past few years, UMC has been severely beaten by TSMC, and the gap in all aspects is not even the slightest. So much so that when the position was moved to the mainland, he provided so many favorable conditions to UMC, and still managed to catch up with TSMC in a short period of time.

Regarding this issue, Wu Tao planned to have a good chat with Cao Yicheng when he passed by Wujiang.

As a result, Jason looked at his sad face and thought he was worried about Panis, so he waved his hand lightly: "Don't worry, Panis deserves everything, and I will try my best to fight for her."

"No! I was thinking about the semiconductor industry." Wu Tao came back to his senses and explained. Then he had an idea and asked casually: "Jason, what do you think of the development of the semiconductor industry?"

"I don't know much about this aspect." Jason lowered his attitude when he entered the topic, but Wu Tao did not mean to despise him at all, "But in the long run, I agree with TSMC Zhang Zhongmou's view that future semiconductors Industrial manufacturing will be concentrated in the hands of a few giants."

"...In other words, the chip foundry industry will definitely become mainstream."

Wu Tao nodded, "I don't deny this possibility. But to decide who can become the final king of the chip foundry industry, is there nothing else but technology?"

Jason thought for a long time, and then he hit the nail on the head when he spoke again, "So, you want to recruit Professor Hu Zhengmin, the chief technology officer of TSMC?"

Wu Tao was immediately shocked: "You actually know him?"

"Of course," Jason said matter-of-factly: "A professor at the University of California, Berkeley, and the inventor of the Fin Field Effect Transistor (FinFET). More advanced process technologies in the future will all rely on his FinFET solution."

"Then do you think it's necessary for me to poach people directly?" Wu Tao knows the importance of FinFET to the future semiconductor industry, so he has been thinking about it all day.

When I went to Wujiang to find Cao Yicheng, one of the important issues was this matter.

Unexpectedly, Jason did not think twice and denied: "I don't think it is necessary. As far as I know, in addition to the decisive factor of technology accumulation for semiconductor manufacturing companies, the scale of product orders is also an important manifestation."

"...In my opinion, this is the advantage of your cooperation with UMC. Cao is a pragmatic person. Once there are substantial orders as a basis, the next generation process technology of Moore's Law will not be difficult to develop... "

Wujiang, Samsung Electronics Factory.

Recently, Li Fuzhen has been staying in Wujiang. On the one hand, he is following the expansion and upgrading of the production line here. On the other hand, he is also pushing forward the research and development of multi-touch capacitive screen technology against all opinions.

No matter which one of these two cases it was, she withstood great pressure and resistance.

However, after experiencing fairy tale love and failed marriage, Li Fuzhen, who had just emerged from the shadow of marriage, was stronger than ever at this moment.

So this little pressure and resistance is nothing to her.

Standing in front of the office window, after Li Fuzhen drank his cup of coffee, there was a slight knock on the door behind him.

"Come in."

After answering the door, Li Fuzhen walked back to the table. There was no trace of worry on his slightly rich face, replaced by pure perseverance.

The person who pushed open the door was not someone else, but her third sister Li Yinxin.

Originally, according to the younger sister's previous plan, she should now study in the United States and then wait for her own perfect love.

But now, she seems to have a special regard for that Hua Xia Wu, and she beams with joy every time she mentions him. She may not even be aware of the excitement.

But as someone who has been through it, Li Fuzhen understands that it should be the taste of love.

Although this love can only be regarded as unrequited love or secret love at present.

Li Yinxin naturally didn't expect that her eldest sister would think so much in one moment, so she reported the work straight to the point as usual: "Sister, according to your instructions, I sent someone to investigate the progress of other manufacturers' development of multi-touch capacitive screen technology. Condition."

"...So far, Ruixian Technology, which has a close cooperative relationship with Yuanqi Technology, has made slow progress in the research and development of multi-touch capacitive screen technology and has not achieved much results. However, Japan's Sharp and Sony have not found any relevant information Project approval information.”

Hearing this, Li Fuzhen frowned immediately, "No, based on the cooperation situation we discussed with Huaxia Wu last time, he should have an earlier project than us."

Then an idea came to his mind, "Tell me, will Yuanqi Technology personally conduct research and development of this technology? After all, according to Huaxia Wu's emphasis on this technology, it means that it is likely to become a key technology in future mobile phone products." !”

"No way?" Li Yinxin murmured.

However, Li Fuzhen strengthened his judgment: "It must be so!"
