Chapter 171 An emergency meeting was held, and Western companies passed the test
"Have you finally taken action?"
Longgang District, Shenzhen City.
Kunpeng Company Headquarters Base.
Ren Guofei looked solemn and murmured to himself, with a hint of surprise in his tone, as if he had expected this scene.
His eyes were fixed on the display screen. The content above was the official global announcement of JSR Corporation's sanctions against Longxing Technology.
Yes!
Official website global announcement!
This means that it is not only published on the official corporate websites of Neon Island Country and Dragon Kingdom, but is also updated simultaneously on corporate official websites of various countries around the world, which is equivalent to a direct showdown.
JSR Co., Ltd. is a company that specializes in semiconductor silicon wafers, photoresists and supporting reagents. Companies that are deeply involved in the field of semiconductor chips are basically familiar with it.
In addition, TOK Tokyo Yinghua, Asahi Kasei Corporation, and Shin-Etsu Chemical all responded to the West's call to sanction Longxing Technology almost at the same time.
Neon Island Country is a major global supplier of semiconductor silicon wafers, semiconductor silicon wafer production equipment, photoresist and supporting reagents, and photoresist and supporting reagent production equipment.
To put it simply, they are responsible for chip raw materials and production equipment, and they are irreplaceable.
Don't look at Longguo's Modu Chemical and Shanghai Silicon Group's two companies competing with it, but in fact, these two local companies do not even have a 5% market share in the semiconductor raw material market.
After witnessing the neon island country’s companies taking the lead in responding to sanctions, Ren Guofei took out his mobile phone in his pocket and was about to make a call...
“Dong Dong——”
Office There was a knock on the door.
Next second.
Ren Wanzhou hurriedly walked in and said in a panic: "Sorry, father, Longxing Technology Company is being blocked by global semiconductor companies. Fifteen companies have already issued announcements."
She started from I never thought about witnessing history, but the history is surprisingly similar.
The former Kunpeng Company was also sanctioned by Western companies on suspicion that they were developing domestically produced chips and had mastered many core technologies. Since then, Kunpeng Company has never stated its involvement in the semiconductor field.
Ren Wanzhou knew at the time that her company was indeed developing its own chips. However, after being sanctioned, the project was officially stopped. It was not until Gaotong sanctioned it in 2014 that she finally found out about her company. It has been deploying in the semiconductor field.
With the alliance of five companies, Kunpeng Company had to terminate research and development on the surface. Now Longxing Technology has a total of fifteen companies, and they are all giant-level existences. This has simply refreshed Ren Wanzhou's three views. .
The moment she received the news, she couldn't help but wonder, had Longxing Technology Company violated the rules of heaven? Or did Chen Xing violate the rules of heaven? Should global semiconductor companies jointly sanction him?
"I already know. You should compile relevant company information and fully support Longxing Technology Company when necessary."
Ren Guofei said calmly.
Ren Wanzhou knew very little about the domestic alliance. He did not know the specific plan content, nor did he know that Longxing Technology Company's "Mingzi" was going to be launched.
Ren Wanzhou is not a fool. When she saw Ren Guofei's appearance, she immediately guessed a certain possibility. At the same time, she did not rule it out. He read the global announcement himself.
"I'll go now."
She quickly turned around and left to sort out the corresponding list of companies.
When the office door closed, Ren Guofei picked up his phone and started a group video chat using WeChat group chat.
With the sound of "唔唔唔唔"", Gao Yongming, the boss of Loongson International, was the first to respond, and his picture appeared in the group video.
"Mr. Ren, did you see it too?"
Gao Yongming did not say any polite words, but went straight to the point and asked.
"Yes."
Ren Guofei nodded slightly, took a deep breath and said, "I just saw it, so I want to discuss it with you."
"This time This is really the first time. I have never seen such a big battle. More than a dozen semiconductor companies responded at the same time. In the next twenty years, it will probably be recorded in the history books. ”
Gao Yongming’s words. Just after landing, the loyal voice of Zhang Yingguang, the boss of Beiji Group, came out: "You two have already talked?"
"So many people are together?"
Guo Yuye, the boss of Modu Chemical Group Joined the hangout.
Yu Yuehui: "Boss Ren, Brother Gao, Brother Zhang and Brother Guo, I'm not too late, right? You clicked in as soon as you saw me."
Duan Yongping: "Are they all here?"< br>
In Duan Yongping's scene, Chen Yong also appeared in the camera and said hello: "We are so crowded, why don't we see Rebus?"
Luo Hao, who had just joined the group video, heard this , immediately responded: "He is still dealing with Asan. If there are any important instructions from the friends in the capital, I will convey them."
The maximum number of people in the WeChat group video is nine people. They also said at the beginning Okay, if there are any important instructions, Rebus will convey them to the friendly business circle of the imperial capital. If Rebus is not in the Dragon Kingdom, Luo Hao will convey them.
“Still in the Ancient Elephant Kingdom?”
Chen Yong was surprised. He remembered that Rebus came back not long ago.
Hearing this, Luo Hao spread his hands, shrugged and said: "He has basically been in the Ancient Xiang Kingdom during this period. I heard that he has built a batch of production equipment, so it is difficult to hold a meeting in such a hurry. Could it be that the West finally lost its patience and took action?”
He was still negotiating projects with suppliers and had no time to understand the changes in the world.
Ren Guofei said "hmm" and said the purpose of the meeting: "Not only did they take action, but they were also ruthless."
"Currently, the world's most reputable companies related to the semiconductor field have successively responded to the West's sanctions against Longxing Technology."
Luo Hao: "..."
Zhang Yingguang : "..."
In an instant, they were collectively silent.
Due to their work, some of them were not so well-informed. If Ren Guofei had not made this video call, they would not have known that Longxing Technology Company had been sanctioned.
As one of the few bosses who knew the situation in advance, Gao Yongming looked at Chen Xingfang, who had not answered the video call, and said, "Has anyone contacted Brother Chen?"
The voice just came. A video screen appeared in the original frame of Chen Xing's WeChat account. The background was in the driver's seat of the vehicle.
"I'm sorry to keep you guys waiting for so long. I was looking for a parking space just now. There are so many people here. What happened?"
Chen Xing's voice just came out, Everyone is dumbfounded. Your company has been sanctioned globally, but you, the boss, don’t know?
However, this cannot be blamed on Chen Xing. How could he have so much leisure time to pay attention to what foreign companies are doing? Moreover, the sanctions took place less than two hours ago, and it will take time to spread and become known.
What’s more, it’s approaching the end of the year. Not only is the company department busy with business, Chen Xing also has a heavy burden on his shoulders.
Like negotiating the parts supply cycle, bringing 5G network researchers to inspect and accept base stations, and collecting scientific research equipment, as well as company department performance bonus review, annual meeting project approval, etc.
Seeing that Chen Xing really didn’t know, Ren Guofei kindly reminded: "Our plan was successful. Your Longxing Technology Company was successfully blocked by the West. This video conference is held to discuss with you what to do next. Let's go."
Chen Xing: "..."
A second ago, he was secretly happy that he had finally finished approving the project for the company's annual meeting, cleared the tasks at hand, and could finally have a good rest for two days. Oh my god.
Next second!
Am I being sanctioned?
When he was stunned, he felt that it was reasonable, but he was a little surprised. This must have spread too fast, right?
The 1 million Longxing X2 has just been shipped, and the Geek X1 has just been shipped in the first batch. Some users haven’t even gotten the phone yet, so people in the West already know about it?
Are they dogs?
Otherwise, why is the nose so sensitive? Chen Xing put away his smile and turned to ask with a serious face: "How many have expressed their stance?"
"Fifteen."
Ren Guofei blurted out, but then He denied it and said: "No, there may be more. There are probably twenty companies."
"Are there any that have interests related to me?"
Chen Xing asked again.
He has really limited information channels. He is not as good as these corporate CEOs who have been working hard for decades. They all have strong connections.
"Neon Island Country, needless to say, their companies are the first to respond, as is the peninsula. However, Korean Star Group has not expressed its position for the time being. As for Western companies, let alone them, they are 100% sure to join the sanctions. The team’s.”
Gao Yongming answered directly.
Ren Guofei went into more detail and reminded: "You should be familiar with SK Hynix and Carl Zeiss. They have all joined. It is estimated that your brilliant X1 will be discontinued for a while."
SK Hynix is a company that produces storage chips and is also one of the parts suppliers for the brilliant X1 mobile phone.
The storage density of the memory chips it produces is far ahead of its peers, and it is known as the Rolls-Royce of storage.
Needless to say, the Carl Zeiss Group produces lenses that are comparable to or even surpass those of Sony.
Chen Xing was not surprised at all when these two companies responded to the sanctions. He knew exactly who was wearing the same pants as whom.
After the release of the Cuican X1, he asked Academician Liu Dongsheng to start researching domestic memory chips. In the field of optics, SEG Technology Park also has corresponding laboratories, and they have achieved good results.
"It has been expected. Apart from these two, have other companies with direct interests in me responded?"
Chen Xing continued to ask.
Why did he vigorously develop Longxing X2?
It’s not because the Longxing series can have localized parts and is cheap, but its production does not rely on imports.
But what Chen Xing is currently most concerned about is that the Longxing series, or the entire Dragon Kingdom mobile phone manufacturers have a fatal Achilles heel, that is the mobile phone's Android operating system.
Once the operating system is restricted, the consequences can be more fatal than parts restrictions, and this cannot be solved in a short time. The operating system programming laboratory of SEG Technology Park has only built 17% independent systems, and it is still far away from official application. .
“You want to ask about Android, right?”
Ren Guofei asked.
Chen Xing did not shy away, nodded and said: "Well, has Google made a statement at the moment?"
"Not yet." Ren Guofei responded calmly and reminded: " But I feel it will come soon, because Android is our Achilles’ heel, and it’s impossible for them not to know.”
As Ren Guofei said, a meeting has been held at the Google headquarters on the other side of the ocean to discuss whether to join the sanctions. ranks.
Chief President Larry Page originally opposed it, because the core concept of the Android system is openness.
Because of its openness, it has surpassed the popular Symbian operating system and the Windows mobile operating system, becoming the first choice for mobile phones in the world besides Apple phones.
If Android system joins the ranks of sanctions, it may cause variables.
But during the heated discussion at the Google meeting, when everyone believed that sanctions should not be imposed, Larry Page and even all shareholders received a call, and then their attitude changed 180 degrees, and they unanimously agreed that Longxing should not be sanctioned. Technology is sinful and needs to go to hell to be punished by Satan.
One after another, more and more Western companies have joined the ranks of sanctions.
……
And on the other side.
The United States, the headquarters of Belle Group.
The third-in-command Maria stepped on the sky high, making a clicking sound, and went straight to the elevator, and then went straight to the top-floor office.
When she came to the door of the office, her eyes became humble and her temperament became introverted, like a docile cat.
Before she could knock on the door as a reminder, a feminine male voice came from inside: "Come in, Maria."
Hearing this, Maria no longer hesitated. Immediately he opened the door and walked in. The man with long blond hair was sitting in the office chair, his face was calm, and his eyes were watching Maria quietly.
"Is the matter done?"
His voice and face were too feminine, and he felt like he could tell whether I was a male or a female. Generally speaking, I looked like a boy or a girl.
Generally, men of this type are very handsome.
A flash of enthusiasm flashed deep in Maria's pupils, she nodded and said: "According to your instructions, everything has been done."
"Semiconductor companies that can unite, even All software companies have issued announcements to Longxing Technology Company to suspend cooperation. They have all made the right choice. "
The long-haired man was not surprised at all, and he didn't even blink.
Others may not know the energy of the force behind him, but as a member, he knows very well that that eye is indeed watching everything and is an omniscient and omnipotent God.
“What about technology?”
His tone remained calm.
Maria: "Although they were reluctant, they all signed a mutual agreement under our witness."
"Then give some rewards appropriately."
“Exactly?”
"What does their company lack most?"
"It should be semiconductor chip technology."
"Semiconductors..." A look of thought flashed across the long-haired man's handsome face, and then he said lightly: "Then. Give them the 7-nanometer chip and eliminate Longxing Technology Company as the second test. If it fails, support the next batch."
"I understand"
Mary. Ya said respectfully.
If others talk about 7-nanometer chips, she may be surprised, but from the words of the man in front of her, she will not find it offensive at all, and may even find it very reasonable.
Because the forces behind him are too mysterious, as long as you pass their test, the rewards you will receive are far beyond imagination.
The content of the test is very simple, lose the most important things and gain the most generous rewards.
Maria only passed one test and became the third-in-command of the Bailey Group. If she made up her mind to complete the next two tests, she could not imagine how much power she could master. .
But she didn’t dare…
In other words, I haven't made up my mind yet.
