According to data from the China Semiconductor Association, the total value of China's entire semiconductor industry chain exceeded 300 billion Chinese dollars last year, but the product-related output value was only 104.7 billion, accounting for one-third of the total value.
The export volume of integrated circuits is relatively optimistic, but if you break it down to specific companies, you can find that the main players are foreign-funded companies in China, not local Chinese companies.
These data are released to the outside world. From the position of Manager Hu, it is natural to get more accurate information.
For example, the output value of the domestic semiconductor industry last year was only about US$12.5 billion, of which IC design was about US$5 billion, IC manufacturing was about US$3.7 billion, and packaging and testing was about US$3.8 billion. On the surface, IC design accounted for about US$3.8 billion. The proportion is relatively high, but in fact, the main foundry of IC design companies is still TSMC or UMC in Baodao.
Especially for large IC design companies, about 80% of wafers come from TSMC in Baodao. In other words, there is not much practice between domestic IC design companies and Foundry.
In fact, many people have seen this problem.
However, the semiconductor industry requires long-term accumulation of talent and technology to take shape, so it is difficult to do well in a short time.
So, the idea that it is better to buy than to make comes into play.
Domestic financial institutions have begun to aggressively acquire semiconductor companies around the world. However, this approach also has drawbacks and still cannot solve many problems in domestic semiconductor development.
At the same time, the high investment and huge risks in the semiconductor industry have also resulted in very few private capital entering this field.
In the domestic IC design field, most companies rely on the support of strong parent companies to achieve success, and there are almost no independent IC design companies.
If you examine these parent companies carefully, you will find that some of them are state-owned enterprises that occupy a monopoly position and operate in a market-oriented manner.
Nari Zhixin Microelectronics, its parent company is a subsidiary of State Grid, its main product is smart meter IC, and it has a monopoly position.
Another example is Huada Semiconductor, whose parent company is Huaguo Electronic Information Industry Group, which monopolizes the IC market for ID cards.
The other part is non-state-owned private enterprises. For example, HiSilicon relies on Huawei, Center Microelectronics relies on ZTE, Lianxin Technology relies on the TD-SCDMA technology owned by its parent company Datang Telecom, and Geko Microelectronics relies on It relies on the strong support of Center International.
A few companies that truly have independent IC design companies include Spreadtrum, Reddick, Rockchip, and Quanzhike. Among them, Spreadtrum and Reddick have been acquired by state-owned enterprises.
The reason why they were acquired is that these companies have extremely narrow financing channels, but they require a large amount of funds, so they can only be acquired by state-owned enterprises.
The last category is Baodao companies, such as Goodix and Duntai. Their major shareholders and technology sources are standard Baodao companies.
Of course, there is also a very famous company called Foxconn, which is also a Baodao company.
Due to some special reasons, Baodao’s technical strength in this area far exceeds that of China, not only in the field of IC design, but also in many fields.
In fact, the country has been catching up because it is the world's largest semiconductor market. However, the backwardness of technology has resulted in a large number of dumping of foreign products.
Premium prices can actually be considered normal business behavior.
However, the West has also imposed various sanctions. Whenever there is a breakthrough in domestic technology, the price of related products will be reduced, or more advanced products will be produced.
In addition, restrictions and clampdowns will be placed on advanced products and manufacturing equipment, etc.
Any leader who has reached a certain level can know these situations.
However, in the face of this situation, everyone's approach is different.
Qin Province and Tang City have obviously chosen a path of independent research and development.
Since the rise of Wang Donglai, Tangdu City has successively become famous internationally. Coupled with the economic driving role of Galaxy Technology, this city deep in the mainland has glowed with new light.
According to common sense, Tang City will also carry out the fast track of ‘demolition and demolition, building and building’ in order to stimulate the economy.
However, the emergence of Wang Donglai gave Tang City and Qin Province a new choice.
That is to develop high-tech technology and use technological breakthroughs to drive economic development.
Such a big matter cannot be decided easily.
Finally, as the economic scale of Galaxy Technology became larger and larger, and Wang Donglai's technological research and development strength became stronger and stronger, Tangdu City and Qin Province made a complete decision.
Abandon stimulating real estate to develop the economy, but instead cultivate internal strength and develop high-tech industries.
The support of 20 billion is only the first step.
The semiconductor industrial park is the second step.
At this moment, Manager Hu called Wang Donglai here just to reaffirm Wang Donglai's determination.
So, after getting Wang Donglai’s firm answer, Manager Hu no longer wanted to keep it secret.
"Professor Wang, in addition to universities, there are many research institutes that also conduct research in this area. If Professor Wang is interested, he can choose the fields he is interested in for research, research institutes, and R&D funds. As well as technical staff, as long as you bring it up, I will You can make the decision."
Wang Donglai's eyes lit up and he said: "Manager Hu, I have a question. I am currently developing a domestic EDA software, which is also extremely important for the semiconductor industry. ”
"It is not a problem to develop it. The real problem is to develop it. Whether it can be promoted and whether it can replace foreign EDA software is the problem."
"What I said is not that He said that he wanted Mr. Hu to use administrative power to solve this problem, but he was explaining something. "Sometimes, it doesn't mean it can be applied once the results are achieved, especially in the semiconductor industry." < br>
“Chinese people are already accustomed to using foreign products for many things. On the one hand, it is because foreign products are indeed excellent, and on the other hand, it is also because we are used to them.”
“I want to change this. The situation is still very difficult. Either the performance is excellent to a certain extent and it is overwhelming, or it is cheap enough, and these two points are contradictory to a certain extent.”
"Therefore, it takes time for the breakthrough and development of semiconductor technology to be reflected in the market, generate profits, and form scale."
"In this way, we must ensure the consistency of policies and ensure policy consistency. Continuous investment and support, as well as trust in professionals, cannot allow other things to take precedence over technology.”
“Only by doing this, I think the semiconductor industry can have a glimmer of hope.”
Manager Hu understood the meaning of Wang Donglai's words.
His expression became serious, he looked at Wang Donglai firmly, and said loudly: "I understand what you mean."
"In response to your concerns, I can also make a guarantee here. In the next three years, we will continue to invest 10 billion to support the development of semiconductor companies in the province. In addition, tax incentives, talent introduction, policies Subsidies will be followed up in a timely manner."
"This is a collective decision made by Qin Province, and it will definitely not change overnight, so Professor Wang can rest assured."
"In addition. , for this research and development, there will be no leadership, only the person responsible for coordinating An office, I will personally serve as the leader of the leadership group.”
“Finally, I have stayed in Qin Province for so long because I hope to see Qin Province become better. I hope that the northwest region can become better. A real high-tech company emerged, They have mastered advanced technology.”
“I see this hope in Galaxy Technology, so you can do it with confidence. As long as you follow the right path with a clear conscience, Qin Province will always support you. Work.”
Manager Hu's words were indeed beyond Wang Donglai's expectations.
No secrets, just say it clearly and clearly, showing sincerity.
Logically speaking, a leader like Mr. Hu would not speak so clearly to avoid some unexpected situations.
However, Manager Hu did not do it this time.
Wang Donglai could also hear it, so he breathed a sigh of relief and had a smile on his face.
"Thank you, Manager Hu, for your support. I won't let you down!"
But Manager Hu waved his hand seriously and corrected: "It's not about thanking me. This is mainly because you have done well in what you have done. It is beneficial to the development of Qin Province and the domestic semi- The development of the conductor industry, that’s why I support you.”
“If the person who did such a thing was Zhang San or Li Si, I would also support them!” Manager Hu specifically corrected what Wang Dong said. The meaning expressed is very simple.
Wang Donglai also understood, and did not create any estrangement because of this. Instead, he smiled and said seriously: "Having a leader like Mr. Hu is a blessing to Qin Province. I am Qin Save me, I don’t think the manager will think I’m flattering you when I say this.”
"Hahaha!"
Manager Hu immediately laughed at Wang Donglai's words.
“Golden cups and silver cups are not as good as word of mouth. If you say this as a Qin Province native, I feel ashamed to receive it.”
“Speaking of which, I will also tell you a piece of news. There will be a meeting at the end of the year. There is a big surprise waiting for you!”
Manager Hu deliberately kept it secret and did not elaborate on what the big surprise will be at the end of the year.
Wang Donglai didn't take this matter to heart.
After all, it is a big surprise to be said by someone with the status of Manager Hu. It definitely cannot be an ordinary thing.
As for Wang Donglai, it was just those few items.
Either some weight award or some weight honor.
If you analyze it in detail, there are only a few that meet the conditions. If you combine the time and conditions, you can completely analyze it.
However, Wang Donglai did not do this, but wanted to retain a sense of surprise.
Knowing it in advance will destroy this feeling.
As the second manager of Qin Province, Manager Hu has many things to do and arrangements are very tight.
After everything was said and done, the time was almost up.
……
After leaving Qin Province Courtyard, Wang Donglai did not go to Tangdu Jiaotong University, but went to Galaxy Technology.
Wang Donglai has not forgotten that he still has a mission in progress.
Originally, I was planning to completely complete the EDA software and then launch it on the market.
With the example of advanced packaging design solutions, it is not surprising that Wang Donglai comes up with a domestic EDA software, and it will be easier to gain the trust and use of domestic semiconductor-related companies.
Now, there is strong support from Qin Province.
Wang Donglai understood that Qin Province was making a bet by rejecting the original real estate economic development model.
Although Manager Hu did not give Wang Donglai specific tasks and requirements, he knew very well that in China, no matter how rich he was, in front of Manager Hu, it was actually the same thing.
However, Manager Hu specifically talked to him and said so much from his heart, which represented Manager Hu's concern and support for him.
So what Wang Donglai has to do next is to give Qin Province hope.
Seeing your ability and level in this area, only in this way will you continue to increase your support.
At the moment, it is only supporting the development of semiconductors. After Wang Donglai develops more technologies, breaks the monopoly, and creates more value, Qin Province is likely to list semiconductors as a major development industry.
This is the situation Wang Donglai wants to see.
With the five billion provided by Tangdu City, Galaxy Technology has developed even more rapidly.
Although there are money-burning software like Pinyidao and Douyin, this amount of money is enough for Galaxy Technology’s current use.
In the office.
Wang Donglai built a computer specially for himself for working.
At this moment, he was tapping the keyboard frantically.
My fingers moved like flying, typing on the keyboard.
On the computer screen, codes appear one after another.
Silhouette, Feishu, EDA and other software.
For other programmers, it is definitely an extremely complicated project.
To complete a simple framework, I am afraid it will take a team to work all night for a week or even half a month.
This is just the beginning, we will continue to update in the future to find and fix bugs.
However, Wang Donglai is not like this.
After the computer reached level six, he obtained a skill of [Integration of Man and Machine].
The ability of this skill is to strengthen the connection between Wang Donglai and the computer.
To describe it in the most intuitive terms, when Wang Donglai writes code, it is just like writing.
In addition, Wang Donglai’s knowledge base in the field of computers makes it easy to complete a software coding.
It is no exaggeration to say that it only takes Wang Donglai a few days to write a mature software.
Furthermore, the code of this software is very concise and there will be no bugs.
This is Wang Donglai's true strength right now.
But even so, Wang Donglai was busy for a long time.
After all, the software that Wang Donglai wants to complete is extremely important, and he naturally wants to make it perfect.
Half a month has passed and it’s November.
“Hoo!”
Wang Donglai exhaled a long breath.
Put your hands off the keyboard.
In the past half month, he has focused almost all his energy on this.
Originally, he should have completed the software coding long ago.
But as he showed that his abilities were too good, Zhang Byte, Huang Zheng and others came to him shamelessly and asked Wang Donglai to sort out and update the company's product software.
Faced with such a request, Wang Donglai could not refuse and could only agree.
In this way, it has been postponed until now.
After exhaling a sigh of relief, Wang Donglai’s eyes were bright and he looked at the several softwares he had written with a smile on his face.
These softwares are exactly...(End of Chapter)
