Rewrite the Technological Landscape

"Rewriting the technological landscape (

As a shareholder of Asmer and a good ally of Intel, Samsung has always placed the bet on Asmer, but other companies are different.

Especially in this world, Samsung is always a little hard to stand up under the pressure of Dafeng Group. Other Korean enterprises will also have a sense of responsibility and think that they should stand up.

Dongbu Hi-Tech, as the world's tenth chip foundry company, has always been ambitious. In 2015, Dongbu Hi-Tech actively participated in the EUV battle, invested heavily in chip manufacturing, and launched an internal battle with Samsung Hynix. Now, Dongbu Hi-Tech Became the first non-Dafeng Group partner to jump out to buy EUV lithography machine.

No one knows what history Eastern High-Tech can change by purchasing the EUV lithography machine of Dafeng Group. However, Eastern High-Tech has successfully broken a default balance, a balance that I don’t know how to choose in the confrontation of Huami Technology.

As a Korean semiconductor company, as a semiconductor company dominated by American technology for a long time, Dongbu Hi-Tech has emerged.

Opening the news, you can see Eastern High-Tech CEO Cui Chang Zhizi happily shook hands with Guan Xiangwen in front of the camera for a photo, and said in front of the media, "After purchasing the EUV lithography machine from Dafeng Group, our Eastern High-Tech will further accelerate the advancement of semiconductor technology. Speed, our 5nm process will also use EUV technology. At the same time, we will build two more factories during the year. Dongbu Hi-Tech will not miss the EUV era. We will serve the market with better processes and technologies."

I don't know if Cui Changzhi intends, Dongfang Hi-Tech will not miss the EUV era. This sentence always feels a little stimulating to Samsung.

And Guan Xiangwen continued to promote the company's lithography machine in front of the media, "We once again welcome more companies to negotiate orders. We believe that no one will reject the leading technology, because no one wants to lag behind."

This transaction not only confirmed that Dafeng Group's lithography machine can indeed be bought by anyone, but also mocked the companies that could not come to buy because they could not fight against it. At this time, Asim was in a deep lawsuit and couldn't extricate itself.

At the same time, Meng Qian came to Europe. According to the media, Meng Qian was called by the European Union to participate in the antitrust hearing. Dafeng Group did not deny this. Therefore, the appearance of Meng Qian caused Europe. A lot of media attention.

With the popularity of such topics, Meng Qian first appeared at STMicroelectronics headquarters in Switzerland.

Sure enough, a large number of media heard about Meng Qian. As a result, everyone got the news that STMicroelectronics purchased the Gale EUV lithography machine for 150 million euros.

China’s Dafeng Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Sony in the Neon Country, and Eastern High-Tech in Korea have all used EUV lithography machines. How can Europe fall behind?

However, the media raised questions about the direction of STMicroelectronics' product production. "The semiconductor field where STMicroelectronics focuses does not have such a high demand for process. Will STMicroelectronics purchase EUV lithography machines this time?"

STMicroelectronics told the media very positively that one of STMicroelectronics' next key focus areas is dedicated chips.

As soon as the four words dedicated chip came out, everyone looked at Meng Qian sitting aside, and they knew that this was definitely a cooperation with Dafeng Group, even if STMicroelectronics has not yet revealed its cooperation with Dafeng Group.

Obviously, STMicroelectronics wants to seize this confrontational opportunity of Huami Technology. This is a very smart decision.

With the purchase of STMicroelectronics, the current EUV technology situation has become Intel, Samsung, GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Gaota Semiconductor and other chip manufacturers of Asim’s faction are destined to be weak. The question now is how long they are prepared to lag behind.

A few days later, Meng Qian suddenly appeared in Belgium. This time, Meng Qian came to the Belgian Microelectronics Research Center. The Belgian Microelectronics Research Center is a world-renowned independent public R&D platform and an indicator R&D institution in the semiconductor industry. The world’s advanced chip R&D technology and process. The former Belgian Microelectronics Research Center will cooperate with Asmar in three years and help Asmar solve the core defects of EUV lithography machines.

At this time, Dafeng Group's EUV lithography machine is also imperfect. Meng Qian wants to use this power, and the country will continue to study it. The success rate of both sides will always be higher.

In fact, the main purpose of doing this is to optimize the EUV lithography machine, but to do this under this background, it has become a kind of pressure. The problem of the EUV lithography machine of Dafeng Group, Asmai The EUV lithography machine also exists, but the EUV lithography machine of Asmar has not come out until now. It is impossible for the world's top institution like the Belgian Microelectronics Research Center to cooperate with a product that has not yet come out.

Step by step, step by step.

In early March, the antitrust hearing finally began.

Meng Qian didn't have to come in person, but he still came. After all, he appeared more attractive.

"Mr. Meng, according to Asmer’s narrative, they have paid all the expenses in accordance with the judgment and purchased the patent license from Dafeng Group at a publicly available market price, but Dafeng Group rejected Asim’s purchase application. Is that right? ?"

"Dear Chairman, in accordance with the regulations of the free market, patents belong to our company's products. We have the right to choose the seller, whether to sell or not, and we have every right to make our own decisions."

"But you refused to sell the patent license for the purpose of being suspected of monopolizing this market."

"Chairman and everyone here, what do we monopolize? Our prices are reasonable, our sales are open and transparent, and we have not restricted any company from purchasing our lithography machines. We have fully complied with the rules of the free market. Even we can treat our competitors equally.

On the contrary, what makes me feel strange is that more and more companies have recently purchased our EUV lithography machines, but on this procurement list, we have been unable to see the world’s leading chip foundries such as Intel and Samsung. Name, what do you think they are waiting for?

You said, are they waiting for today's hearing? Is it waiting for us to be ruled as a monopoly? Could it be that we have to license the technology to Asme after we are ruled as a monopoly? Then they go to Asmarck to buy EUV lithography machine?

If my guess is not wrong, then please consider from my perspective, whether you dare to authorize patents to such a target customer group deliberately, if such a company develops, I am afraid that is the beginning of monopoly.

I still remember that when I first started my business, American companies always said that this is an era of globalization. They always told us to promote global cooperation. I was inspired by the idea of ​​globalization to create Dafeng Group and globalize it. As one of the core basic concepts of Dafeng Group's development.

Therefore, we reserve the right to refuse cooperation for companies that are anti-globalization, and for companies that comply with globalization, we have always opened the door, and we are willing to accept a comprehensive investigation. "

Meng Qian's words are ridiculous and sincere, and anyone with normal logical thinking ability can hear the meaning.

Who is monopolizing, and who wants to monopolize? A paragraph from Meng Qian directly bounced back at the Dafeng Group's monopoly hearing.

It’s a pity that this hearing is of interest. Some people understand it but don’t understand it~www.ltnovel.com~Mr. Meng, we will review any monopolistic behavior and make corresponding decisions, but we can’t To determine what has not happened, we need to pay more attention to the facts in front of us. Dafeng Group's EUV lithography machine has already formed a monopoly. Does Mr. Meng approve it? "

The hearing insisted on staring at the present, and was very cautious not to talk about the monopoly of lithography machines, but to talk about the monopoly of EUV lithography machines. This is an irrefutable fact in everyone's opinion.

However, Meng Qian looked at the hearing team with a calm and suspicious look, "I asked at the beginning, what do we monopolize?"

"At present, only Dafeng Group can produce EUV lithography machines in the world. Isn't this a monopoly?"

Meng Qian continued to maintain this expression, "Who said that?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Meng Qian's answer made them feel like a rascal, "Mr. Meng, we should face the facts, denial is meaningless."

Meng Qian pulled the microphone back and leaned on the chair to make himself as comfortable as possible. "There are some things I promised that I can’t say. I can only tell you that this month, you will see another company take out EUV. Lithography."

Question marks are all over everyone's faces.

Until someone thinks of a name, can it be said...?

Just when everyone was guessing, Meng Qian suddenly added, "Oh, yes, within a year, I predict that at least one more company will take out EUV lithography machines, so Dafeng Group cannot monopolize this. market."

In addition to Asmarck, there will be three EUV lithography machine companies in the world?

When the world was still paying attention to the trend of the lithography machine dispute between Dafeng Group and Asim, Meng Qian directly threw out an explosive message, which shocked the market again.
