Chapter 292 Arrogant Asmai, poaching semiconductor giants!
After all the final exams were over, Wang Yi felt refreshed and went straight to Lin Shu's house decisively.
At this time, Lin Shu was wearing an apron and working in the kitchen.
Seeing that Wang Yi was about to come in, Lin Shu quickly stopped Wang Yi: "Brother, don't come in yet, wait for me."
Wang Yi became interested: "Is this a surprise?"
"Yeah, you'll know in a minute. Just sit down and drink some juice."
Lin Shu took Wang Yi back to the living room, poured him freshly squeezed juice, and kissed him: "Wait for me for a while."
"good."
Looking at Lin Shu's graceful figure leaving, Wang Yi burst into laughter, not knowing what kind of surprise Lin Shu had prepared.
But having a girlfriend like the little rich woman is a real winner in life.
You know, most relationships can easily go bad.
People who once liked each other will fall apart as time passes.
Even if you finally persist to the end and enter the palace of marriage, your relationship will be wiped out due to trivial matters in life and financial pressure.
If you are lucky and meet someone with a good personality, even if the love is gone, the family relationship is still there and you can still live a good life as brothers in bunk beds.
But if you are unlucky and encounter someone who is gentle before marriage but irritable after marriage, making trouble all day long, making all kinds of accusations and faults, and denouncing the person as useless and useless, then life will be really miserable.
As for those who met on a blind date, let alone that, once the fresh period is over, they are all magic boxes, and we don’t know what the outcome will be.
It can be said that happiness after marriage depends largely on the personality of the other half.
If you are as gentle and considerate as Lin Shu, and you adore and care for your boyfriend, then you will naturally be happy and contented.
But unfortunately, there are very few of these, and most of them are never encountered.
On the contrary, more people still become extremely irritable and picky because of various trivial matters, and they train their subjects and children all day long...
It is really rare to meet people like Lin Shu who are willing to wash their hands and make soup and give surprises at every turn.
While Wang Yi was thinking, the big light in the living room went out and the candlelight came on, illuminating the room.
Lin Shu walked over from the kitchen pushing a small cart with a large cake on it.
"What day is today?" Wang Yi was overjoyed. He didn't expect such a surprise.
"Today is a special day to celebrate Xiaoyi's successful completion of all subjects!"
Lin Shu said, took out a bouquet of flowers from under the cart and handed it to Wang Yi:
"I wish my dear baby a smooth and successful new year!"
"Thank you, Xiao Shu!" Wang Yi was very moved and suddenly realized that Lin Shu was making this cake in the kitchen just now.
That's right, this big cake was not bought, but made by Lin Shu himself.
The blueberries, strawberries, and mangoes above are all Wang Yi’s favorite fruits.
In fact, on New Year's Day, Lin Shu wanted to make a big cake and celebrate the New Year with Wang Yi.
But Wang Yi had a New Year's Day press conference the next day, so he naturally didn't have time, so he had to put it to today to celebrate the completion of the final exam.
Wang Yi was even more moved, put away the flowers, and hugged Lin Shu into his arms: "Xiao Shu, it's great to have you."
Lin Shu smiled sweetly, stood on tiptoes and kissed her lips without saying anything.
In the candlelight, the two kissed passionately.
…
Xinli Media is a different story.
It was late at night, and Wang Ziyi still locked herself in the office.
What is playing on the computer screen is the explosive "Cliff"!
Looking at the dense barrage and online on-demand views on Xingyi’s video, Wang Ziyi regretted it:
"The permanent copyright can be sold for more than 100 to 200 million, but I sold it for 20 million. I'm so stupid, really!"
"This time, at least more than 100 million were lost!"
"Director Wang, your vision is too cruel! Alas!"
But unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
This kind of exclusive hit drama has always been the best way to attract new members.
For example, "Kurst" in the previous life added 17 million paying members to iQiyi.
All are calculated based on the monthly subscription of an ordinary gold membership of 25 yuan, and each member is only open for one month, which is 2.5 billion.
What's more, many people have diamond memberships that cost 50 yuan a month.
There are also many people who subscribe to more expensive quarterly memberships or even annual memberships.
It can be said that "Crazy" has brought iQiyi membership revenue of more than 500 million!
Coupled with the advertising in the lower left corner, the ads in the middle, the paused ads, these ads that VIPs cannot skip, every advertising space is ridiculously expensive.
After so many views, "Kurst" made iQiyi's profit exceed 2 billion in one quarter, and its subsequent total profit exceeded 3 billion!
Although "Cliff" is not as popular as "Horse", it is still a hit.
Even if the total number of new members brought is only a quarter of "Hurious", only 4.25 million.
There are only 15 members per member, which is 63.75 million after only one month of operation.
In addition to the activated quarterly membership, diamond membership, the membership fee can exceed 80 million.
There are also advertising fees and naming fees, even if they are only one-tenth of "Cyclonus", they are still 500 million.
The total revenue exceeds 200 million, which is just the beginning.
As time goes by, more and more new members will be brought in, and membership income and advertising income will also increase.
What's more, there are also two, three, and four rounds of satellite TV copyright fees, which also belong to Wang Yi, and can be sold for a lot.
With an investment of 20 million yuan and a revenue of 20 to 300 million yuan, this kind of return on investment is not ordinary.
So much so that Wang Ziyi's intestines turned green with regret:
"If I had known, it would have sold for at least 100 million!"
But she also knew that if it really cost 100 million, Wang Yi wouldn't buy it, and no one would buy it.
These days, such high royalties don't exist.
Besides, buying copyright is a gamble!
No one knew it would become a hit before it aired. If it failed, there would be very few new members and few advertising sponsors. Not to mention making money, even the 20 million royalties would not be recouped.
To put it bluntly, it's all gambling, it all depends on vision and luck.
Wang Ziyi thought this way and finally felt a little relieved: "Dr. Wang, I don't believe you can win every time you bet!"
"The "Cliff" bought for 20 million is a hit, making you a lot of money."
"But "Empire Love Story" bought for 40 million yuan is about to go on sale. This one may not be a hit!"
The reason why the royalty price of "Northern Ireland" is higher than that of "Cliff" is naturally because the first round of satellite TV rights of "Cliff" was sold to three companies, and there was not much satellite TV income later.
However, "Northern Ireland" was only sold to one satellite TV station in the first round, and it can continue to be sold later!
In addition, the audience for spy war themes like "Cliff" is mainly users over the age of thirty.
Most of the major video platforms have young users, so naturally they are not optimistic about "Cliff", so it cannot be sold at a high price.
On the contrary, youth idol dramas such as "Northern Love" are liked by video platforms and sell for a higher price.
However, what Wang Ziyi did not expect was that Xingyi Video was different from other platforms.
Not only does it have a large number of young users, but there are also many drivers over the age of 30 attracted by the Amap navigation linkage promotion.
This group has jobs, income, cars, relatively high financial strength, and they also like spy dramas.
The monthly membership fee of 15 yuan puts no pressure on them at all.
As a result, spy dramas such as "Cliff" also became popular on Xingyi Video, attracting a large number of new members over the age of thirty.
This is the effect of linkage publicity.
This is also the reason why Wang Yi created "Spy War Zone", which is to capture these groups over 30 years old!
Especially middle-aged people over forty years old are the most valuable group of VIP members.
Let them search everywhere on the Internet to find pirated resources. If they can't find them, they can only sign up for membership.
As for watching TV...there are actually fewer and fewer TV users.
Students do not have televisions in school.
Young people who have just started working basically rent a house and don't have a TV.
It’s all about mobile phones, tablets, computers + instant noodles, snacks and watching dramas.
People who own houses, even if they have a TV, have to work, socialize, and occasionally work overtime, they can't squat in front of the TV every day to watch the live broadcast on time.
Even if you can watch the live broadcast every day, you still have to see if your wife agrees.
The husband wants to watch "Cliff", the wife wants to follow variety shows, and the children also want to watch cartoons. What should we do?
It is more convenient to open a Xingyi Video membership and watch dramas anytime and anywhere.
It is precisely because of this that the popularity of "Cliff" has brought a large number of new members to Xingyi Video.
"Wang Yi, you are so lucky!"
Wang Ziyi was a little envious: "But I don't believe that "Northern Ireland" you bought for 40 million can also become popular!"
"After all, it's a drama with a new director and new actors, so there's a high chance it will fail!"
Wang Ziyi sighed, closed the computer, and left the company.
People all want others to live well, but they don’t want their lives to be too good.
The next day, Wang Yi came to Xingyi Technology.
Just as I was about to handle my work emails, I received a call from Jiang Hongzhi, Chairman of Goertek:
"Congratulations to Mr. Wang, xphone 1 is a big seller, x buds are also a big seller!"
It can be heard that Jiang Hongwei's words are full of excitement.
Can you not be excited?
When Wang Yi bought shares, Goertek’s share price was only 6 yuan.
Wang Yi spent 1.8 billion to buy 300 million shares, holding 10% of the shares and becoming the second largest shareholder.
With the news of Wang Yi's investment and the official announcement of a multi-million OEM order for x buds, Goertek's stock price soared rapidly and soon reached 8 yuan, which was very stable.
After the New Year’s Day press conference, orders for x buds exploded again. Wang Yi decisively placed another order for 10 million units of x buds!
As soon as the news was revealed, Goertek's stock price surged again, and now it has risen to 10 yuan!
There is no way, x buds are popular all over the country. As the only OEM, Goertek has won two large orders worth tens of millions in a short period of time. Its revenue and market value have reached a new level. It is difficult for the stock price not to rise.
From the previous 6 yuan to the current 10 yuan, it has increased by 67%, which is simply terrifying!
Goertek’s market value has also increased from 18 billion to 30 billion!
Gore was in a good mood about this.
In 2010, Goertek became part of Apple's supply chain and its stock price skyrocketed.
At the end of 2011, Goertek became the supply chain of Xingyi Technology, and its stock price skyrocketed again.
For this kind of OEM, its own products are not outstanding, and its revenue and stock price all depend on the large OEM orders.
Wang Yi's investment and large orders increased Goertek's market value by 12 billion, and Jiang Hongzhi was overjoyed.
Wang Yi chuckled: "We are happy together. We said before that Goertek's market value could rise to 36 billion, and now it is 30 billion. The future is promising!"
"Yes, Director Wang, when you said it at the time, we actually didn't believe it. We were all thinking, how could it rise so fast? But now, it has risen even faster than what you said at the beginning! Hahaha!"
Jiang Hongzhi was in a good mood and felt that it was right to introduce Wang Yi's investment.
I am even more grateful that I made the right choice!
Goertek faced two major choices at the beginning:
The first is to introduce Wang Yi Investment, let Wang Yi be the second largest shareholder, fully switch to Xingyi Technology, and OEM x buds for Xingyi Technology.
The other is standing on the opposite side of Xingyi Technology, using Goertek’s background to conduct reverse research and development, copycat x buds, and mass-produce them, and even mass-produce x buds for other mobile phone manufacturers.
After some struggle, Jiang Hongzhi still chose to turn to Wang Yi.
Fortunately, in just over a month, Goertek won a large OEM order of 20 million x buds. Its market value soared by 67%, and it has a bright future.
If you make the wrong choice and have to go against Xingyi Technology and copycat x buds, I'm afraid it will be another result.
After all, anyone who goes against Director Wang will not end well.
HM is like this, Zara is like this, and even Baidu, the leader of BAT, has ended miserably.
As for Kay Rucker, which wanted to seize the navigation market and pick peaches, it collapsed across the board.
Jiang Hongzhi was overjoyed: "Dr. Wang, Goertek has added another production line. Currently, it can produce 130,000 x buds per day, and 150,000 x buds per day in one week! Throughout January, four million x buds will be produced, no pressure!"
Originally there was only a large order of 10 million, but Goertek has a daily production capacity of 100,000 and delivered it all in four months.
Now that another large order of 10 million has been added, Goertek has decisively increased its investment and increased its daily production capacity to 150,000 units.
"Four million units a month? Very good, enough to sell!"
Wang Yixiao said: "Dr. Jiang, this pace is okay. First, finish the production of 20 million orders, and then adjust again based on the situation."
"Okay, Director Wang. Don't worry, no matter how big the market demand for x buds is, Goertek will do its best to meet it as soon as possible."
"Okay." Wang Yi said calmly. He felt that this call was not that simple. He was probably expecting the third million-dollar order!
Even the fourth million-dollar order!
If it wins another 20 million x buds orders, Goertek's stock price will go even further, possibly hitting a market value of 36 billion.
But Wang Yi did not directly agree to this.
After the New Year’s Day press conference, the sales of x buds have been very hot these days, with hundreds of thousands of units sold a day.
But what will happen after a while? It’s hard to say.
According to Wang Yi's estimate, there is no pressure to sell x buds for 20 million a year, but it is hard to say whether they can sell for 30 million.
Don’t take too big steps in the early stage.
Seeing that Wang Yi did not express his position, Jiang Hongzhi changed the subject: "By the way, Director Wang, in order to thank Xingyi Technology for its support to Goertek, Goertek plans to change the fee settlement cycle from monthly settlement to quarterly settlement. Director Wang
, do you have any objection?"
x buds are not only OEM by Goertek, many components are also made by Goertek.
It stands to reason that you have to pay part of the purchase price and OEM fees in advance.
However, as Wang Yi was the major shareholder of Goertek and had a large order worth tens of millions, Jiang Hongzhi was very knowledgeable and directly stated that Goertek would pay the fee in advance, and after delivery, Xingyi Technology would settle the payment the following month.
Now taking the initiative to propose quarterly settlements is equivalent to giving Wang Yi an extra three months of buffer period.
All I can say is that this is not an ordinary return!
In the new year, Xingyi Technology is developing rapidly and money is needed everywhere. If we delay the quarterly settlement for two more months, Xingyi Technology will have a looser cash flow!
Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Thank you very much, Director Jiang. Don't worry, Goer's future will only get better and better!"
"With these words from Director Wang, I feel relieved!" Jiang Hongzhi was in a good mood.
What I need is this reassurance.
"The x buds will be produced as soon as possible, and after the domestic market is saturated, they will be distributed overseas simultaneously."
"Okay, Director Wang, I will arrange it as soon as possible!"
Jiang Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief. The order for x buds could not be fulfilled.
Wang Dong's thighs were held firmly.
Even if it is settled on a quarterly basis, it is still worth it.
Wang Yi also made a lot of money from this investment.
Goertek's stock price rose from 6 yuan to 10 yuan, and the 300 million shares held by Wang Yi also rose from 1.8 billion to 3 billion, adding 1.2 billion in value.
It's not that impressive, but Wang Yi doesn't plan to sell it in the next two years, and we have to wait and see the future development of Goertek.
Later, Wang Yi took a look at BYD's stock price.
BYD, which is bargain-hunting at HK$10, recently reported a HK$3.5 billion investment in antifreeze batteries and Wang Yi, causing BYD's stock price to skyrocket, all the way to HK$20.
Later, the Xphone 1 sold out, and Wang Yi frantically placed orders for BYD's antifreeze batteries, and then OEMed the Xphone 1.
Due to various favorable conditions, BYD's stock price rose again, reaching HK$28 before New Year's Day.
Unfortunately, the year-end financial report is still not very good, and BYD's stock price has fallen back to HK$25.
There is no way, Wang Yi's large orders can generate a lot of revenue for BYD, allowing BYD to turn losses into profits in December and increase profits.
But it still couldn't reverse BYD's decline in the first eleven months. As soon as the 2011 annual financial report was released, the stock price fell a little.
Without the help of Wang Yi's big orders, BYD's stock price would not have fallen a little as soon as the annual report came out.
But it will be easy to say in 2012. Most of the orders for anti-freeze batteries and Xphone 1 OEMs will be delivered in 2012. BYD's revenue will naturally increase sharply, and its stock price will rise again.
But even so, BYD's stock price and market value have increased by 150% from HK$10 to HK$25!
Wang Yi's HKD 3.5 billion also increased in value to HKD 500 million, making a profit of HKD 500 million!
However this is just the beginning.
Wang Yi remembers that BYD had a big benefit at the beginning of 2012, with its stock price soaring.
But in the middle and second half of the year, there are still black swan events.
Wang Yi didn't know if there would be a turn for the better, but it didn't matter.
Originally, he was considering partially reducing his holdings to cash out before the black swan, and then increasing his holdings later.
It's not necessary now.
As long as we are not extremely short of money or at the end of our rope, we will not reduce our holdings in BYD's stocks if we can.
A black swan event really occurred, BYD's stock price plummeted, and Wang Yi will continue to increase his holdings!
Wang Yi is optimistic about BYD in the long term!
In the afternoon, Jian Ziyan returned to the company, her face not looking good.
Wang Yi comforted him: "What's the matter? We went to the Asmai Imperial Capital Branch and the talks didn't go well?"
Jian Ziyan nodded: "Chairman, ASML is so big. Anyone who wants to buy their DUV lithography machine must first fill out an application form. Once their approval is passed, ASML will send someone to the wafer factory.
The contract will be signed only after the inspection is passed."
Wang Yi laughed, as expected.
As the empire suppressed the semiconductor industry in Neon Country, Nikon and Canon have given up on high-end lithography machines. Now ASML has become the overlord of lithography machines. It is an absolute oligarch and it has become tough.
New semiconductor companies and small businesses simply cannot survive the Asmaco core.
At present, Wang Yi's wafer fab was built on behalf of the government, but it has not even been completed, nor has it been delivered.
ASML has no place to inspect it even if it wants to, and even buying a photolithography machine is a problem.
No wonder Jian Ziyan has a headache and Wang Yi can't solve it.
"The chairman, Gao Qun, the vice president of ASML's Imperial Branch, is also very talkative. As soon as he heard that Xingyi Technology wanted to buy a photolithography machine, he tried his best to help and made an exception to apply for the headquarters."
Jian Ziyan elaborated: "The president of the branch, Elke, is an arrogant imperial man. It is difficult to talk to him. He must follow the rules and submit the report first and wait for the review notice. Regarding this, Gao Qun has no idea.
The method is to crush people to death at the first level of officialdom, damn Elk!"
Wang Yi nodded: "It's okay, I'll handle it."
"Elk, right? OK, I will write down this account."
Wang Yi leaned on the armchair and fell into deep thought.
The situation of Seoul Hongxin in its previous life was somewhat similar to that of Wang Yi’s Xingyi Semiconductor.
At that time, when Hongxin was just established, it got the first 1980Di DUV lithography machine in mainland China, which was not an ordinary glory.
In this way, before Hongxin was completed, it was inspected by ASML and the order was signed.
It is also an emerging semiconductor company, but it has not yet built a wafer factory.
Why is it that Xingyi Technology is stuck in the review, but Hongxin can pass smoothly?
This is clearly inconsistent with ASML's review procedures.
There is a big problem here!
Wang Yi thought carefully, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly realized.
The reason is that Hongxin deceived Mr. Jiang into leaving the company, and Mr. Jiang was in charge!
As a former TSMC executive, Mr. Jiang received hundreds of ASML lithography machines, and he was not very familiar with ASML people.
With Mr. Jiang’s endorsement, ASML’s review was just a formality. Even if Hongxin had problems, it would still have to sell the machine.
There is no other way, I have to sell it for Mr. Jiang’s sake.
It can be said that the establishment of Hongxin and the availability of photolithography machines were all thanks to Mr. Jiang.
But in the end, Mr. Jiang was tricked by them until he vomited blood...
The same is true for the current Xingyi Semiconductor. Like Hongxin in the previous life, it has just been established and there is no trace of the wafer factory.
Now when I order a photolithography machine, ASML ignores me at all and cannot even pass the review.
But if Wang Yi also hires a big guy like Mr. Jiang, then there will be no problem.
At present, Mr. Jiang has returned to TSMC, but Wang Yi does not consider it.
The one he wanted to dig more was Mr. Liang.
Unfortunately, Mr. Liang resigned from TSMC in 2009 and switched to Samsung.
Two months ago, TSMC sued Mr. Liang on the grounds of non-competition agreement and leaked technology.
The three parties have not yet completely broken up. It is unrealistic for Wang Yi to ask Mr. Liang to leave Samsung and switch to Xingyi Semiconductor now.
Wang Yi knew that Mr. Liang lost the lawsuit and was sentenced to not serve Samsung until the end of 2015.
Similarly, restrictions in non-competition agreements cannot serve Xingyi Technology.
It can be said that Wang Yi can only wait until 2016 if he wants to invite Mr. Liang.
In his previous life, Mr. Liang only joined SMIC in 2017 and brought brilliant development to SMIC.
But Wang Yi couldn't wait that long.
We can't wait four or five years until Mr. Liang's non-compete agreement is terminated?
The daylilies will be cold by then.
What should I do?
Wang Yi felt a little dizzy and depressed, not just ordinary depression.
Seeing this, Jian Ziyan felt worried. She walked quietly behind Wang Yi, stretched out her hand, and massaged Wang Yi's neck and shoulders.
It made Wang Yi feel very comfortable and refreshed.
Then his eyes lit up: "Yes, Mr. Liang is under a non-competition agreement and cannot poach him, but Mr. Liang's teacher, Mr. Hu, can poach him!"
As Mr. Liang’s mentor, Mr. Hu is also the first chief technology officer of TSMC.
It was he who led TSMC to overtake and defeat IBM, allowing TSMC to gain a firm foothold in the semiconductor field.
More importantly, Mr. Hu is the founder of FinFET 3D architecture!
Previously, the semiconductor industry used 2D architecture and could not break through the limitations of the 20nm process.
So much so that Moore's Law has become a joke, and many people have begun to doubt Moore's Law, thinking that Moore's Law will end at 20nm and can no longer go any further.
It wasn't until Hu Lao developed the revolutionary 3D FinFET architecture for the first time that it broke through the limitations of the 20nm process!
Just gave Moore’s Law another ten years!
This makes the future 20nm, 16nm, 14nm, 12nm, 10nm, 7nm, 5nm, and 4nm possible.
Wang Yike knows that 4nm chips ten years from now will all rely on Mr. Hu’s FinFET architecture technology.
But more advanced 3nm chips must replace new materials and adopt a new architecture-GAA (gate all around) structure.
Whether it is TSMC, Samsung, or Intel, from 20nm to 4nm, they all use Mr. Hu’s FinFET architecture.
It can be said that without Mr. Hu’s FinFET architecture, it would take TSMC, Samsung, and Intel many years to break through the 20nm limit.
Since Mr. Liang cannot poach Mr. Hu, wouldn’t it be stable if Mr. Hu is directly poached and let Mr. Hu take charge of Xingyi Semiconductor?
Mr. Hu's influence is no less than that of Mr. Liang, if not more.
If Mr. Hu joins, then Xingyi Semiconductor will be completely stable.
With Mr. Hu’s brand name and appeal, even the world’s top semiconductor talents are willing to join Xingyi Semiconductor.
Not to mention 65nm, 55nm, even 28nm, 22nm, 20nm, 16nm in the future... will not be a problem.
Even with Mr. Hu, it won’t be a problem to invite Mr. Liang again after 2016!
Mr. Liang first rose to prominence when his mentor Mr. Hu was the chief technology officer of TSMC.
This matter can be fixed completely.
Wang Yi made a decision and immediately checked Mr. Hu's information.
From 2001 to 2004, he served as the first technical CEO of TSMC and concurrently served as TSMC Distinguished Chair Professor at the University of California, Berkeley.
In 2004, he left TSMC and returned to teach at the University of California, Berkeley.
In 2007, he was elected as a foreign academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
In 2008, he served as a director of SanDisk.
Wang Yi had a plan.
At present, Mr. Hu is teaching and serving as a director of SanDisk, but he does not hold any other jobs.
It has been seven or eight years since I left TSMC, and there are no competition restrictions!
You can definitely dig it out!
However, such a big boss is not only a foreign academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an academician of the Imperial Academy of Engineering, but also a top expert in the semiconductor field.
Even his students have become top experts!
This kind of talent is treasured by all countries around the world. It would be difficult for Wang Yi not to hire him personally!
It seems that I had to go on a business trip again before the year and went to the Empire.
As long as Mr. Hu is invited, the photolithography machine order is not a problem, the semiconductor talent is not a problem, and the manufacturing process is not a problem.
When the Xingyi wafer factory is put into production and the technology breaks through, even if the empire blocks it, Wang Yi will be able to develop and produce chips by himself.
As for what if the empire jumps over the wall and asks ASML to lock the backstage and Wang Yitun's lithography machine?
Don't worry about this.
First of all, Asmai is not stupid and will not completely fall to the empire. Every time the empire wants to block and suppress it, Asmai will find a way to sell it secretly!
Secondly, if ASML dares to block the backstage, it will completely lose the mainland market.
By then, there is no way to sell mid- to low-end lithography machines other than EUV, otherwise they may go bankrupt.
The production capacity of high-end EUV lithography machines is small and the demand is not high. Only TSMC, Samsung and Intel need it.
ASML sells more and generates the most revenue in mid- to low-end lithography machines, which is still in the mainland market.
Dare to block backend data, unless ASML wants to go bankrupt!
Thirdly, in the game between great powers, there are means of checking and balancing each other. The empire does not dare to really get to this point.
If the backstage of the photolithography machine was really sealed, Xia Guo would also lift the table and cut off the export of raw materials such as gallium and germanium!
Note that it is broken, not restricted.
Without basic raw materials, the world’s semiconductors will be completely useless!
The trip to the empire is imminent!
