Xiao Bai didn't bargain, this number was not different from what he thought in his heart.That night, Xiao Bai made a phone call to Zhou Siyi after dinner.Let the other party send someone to sign an agreement with Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company as soon as possible, and he will let Yousen transfer the funds to the account of the Times Science and Technology Research Institute."
Xiao Dong, I'll go over tomorrow."
Zhou Siyi didn't say anything, he planned to go to the magic capital the next day, and after finishing his errands, he flew home directly for the New Year.hung up, Xiao Bai called You Sen and Mu Ziyuan again, and asked them to then transfer 2.5 billion yuan of funds to the Times Science and Technology Research Institute.Following.Zhou Siyi flew to the magic capital and soon signed a project cooperation agreement with Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company to jointly develop a 90N immersion lithography machine.Xiao Bai was busy working for a few days, and after Zhou Siyi left the magic capital, it was time for the New Year.Modu State-owned Assets still failed to make a decision on the capital increase and share expansion of Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company."
Xiao Tian, let's just celebrate the New Year here."
Xiao Bai and Tian Chunxiu then began to prepare for the New Year's goods, and Tian Chunxiu cleaned up the villa in the Oriental Garden beautifully, which was very festive.Since Xiao Bai personally sat in the magic capital during the Chinese New Year, people like Wei Jianjun, Wang Xuming and others could go home for the New Year.Wei Jianjun hasn't been back to reunite with his family during the Spring Festival for two years, and now that he is married and has children, he must have some personal free time.Wang Xuming, like Wei Jianjun, both set up their homes in the magic capital.This year, he offered to stay on duty, but Xiao Bai didn't agree and asked him to go back to his hometown to accompany his parents.Times Communications Pudong Company has moved to the Development Zone, and the person in charge of the company, Gao Yiwei, is a local, so Xiao Bai doesn't have to worry about things over there.However, before Wang Xuming left, some trivial matters were also arranged.At least someone served Xiao Bai in the Oriental Garden Villa during the Chinese New Year, someone had to cook and clean, right?
This is the first time Xiao Bai has spent the New Year with Tian Chunxiu and Ziyu, although there are not too many people in the family, they are also very lively.Of course, the more lively is later, starting from the third day of the Lunar New Year, Wei Jianjun and others returned to the magic capital, and the family came to pay New Year's greetings to Xiao Bai."
Ah Bai, I feel very happy for the Chinese New Year this year, and our Ziyu is also very happy."
Tian Chunxiu is ready to return to ZH after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, her parents have been helping to bring Ziyu, and after leaving for a long time, they kept calling and saying that they wanted to see their children.In addition, she was also very busy with her work, and she left the magic capital on the sixth day of the new year.Xiao Bai stayed."
Dong Xiao, we may lag behind in the next technology node, that is, the 65N process process.Currently, I am developing a new process for the N1 generation with 90n nodes, aiming to push it forward by half a generation. ”During the time when Xiao Bai was waiting for the city to make a decision, he had to go to Times IC Manufacturing Co., Ltd. almost every day.Wei Jianjun didn't care about him, continued to be busy with his own affairs, and chatted with him when he was free.Due to the delay in the delivery of the latest lithography machine, the company's research and development work on the next technology node, the 65N process process, has been delayed.However, Wei Jianjun and others did not sit back and wait for equipment, but continued to promote the progress of the manufacturing process on the existing basis.With the 90nN1 generation technology, continuing to develop the 65n process will do more with less."
Old Wei, keep coming up.Our main task in the past few years is to strengthen technical reserves, and it is not necessary to win the first place. ”When Xiao Bai heard Wei Jianjun's words, he was also emotional.Semiconductor technology is a key area for the technological hegemony of the United States and has never been allowed to be subverted.I think the war between Japan and the United States on semiconductors is a typical example.Xiao Bai doesn't think that he can win the entire industrial chain by himself, but before Lao Mei has completely turned his face, he must prepare step by step.Technically, you don't have to be the first to do everything, but the foundation must be solid.If one day Lao Mei wants to manufacture IC for the times, it must ensure that it can survive under extreme conditions.Xiao Bai is currently gradually extending to the upstream of the industrial chain, some in the open, and some in the dark.Therefore, compared with the courageous struggle of Times Optoelectronics, Times IC manufacturing is much more low-key.At this stage, Xiao Bai also has an important task, which is to support manufacturers of domestic equipment and materials, and purchase as many domestic equipment and materials as possible.An IC production line will use a variety of equipment, including but not limited to lithography equipment, etching equipment, polishing equipment, cleaning equipment, and so on.As for various raw materials, there are more, such as Hengmei Technology, which Xiao Bai's parents are involved in the operation, produces wafers, which are important raw materials for IC manufacturing.Domestic equipment and raw materials still have many weaknesses in the IC production chain, and if you want to replace imports, or de-beautify, it takes time to precipitate and accumulate technology, and it is impossible to achieve it overnight.Wei Jianjun also fully understood Xiao Bai's hard work through the delay in delivery of the lithography machine.At present, in his hands, there are a variety of domestic equipment and raw materials in the technical verification, if there is no problem, the future will be bulk purchased.The tenth day of the first month.News came from the city that the state-owned assets of the magic capital agreed to Xiao Bai's capital increase and share expansion plan.Times Technology Group will inject 4.7 billion yuan into Pudong Microelectronics and obtain 15.5% of the company's equity.Previously, Times Technology Group owned 14.5 shares of Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company, plus 15.5 shares this time, after the completion of the capital increase and share expansion, Times Technology Group's shares in Pudong Microelectronic Equipment accounted for 30.This time, Xiao Bai was not polite, obtained a seat on the board of directors of Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company, and began to participate in the company's major decisions.However, Xiao Bai also promised not to seek a controlling position and not to change the attributes of the company's state-owned holdings.After the signing of the agreement, Times Technology Group injected 7.2 billion yuan into Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company in two tranches.Among them, 4.7 billion yuan will be used to increase capital and shares, and the other 2.5 billion yuan will be the cooperation investment in the research and development project of 90N lithography machine.This is tantamount to injecting a booster into a small and medium-sized company with an annual revenue of only 3 billion yuan."
Xiao Dong, you are really generous!
On behalf of all the employees of the company, I would like to pay tribute to you and thank you for your great contribution to the development of the company. ”The biggest problem of Pudong microelectronic equipment is the problem of funds, talents can be introduced, but the problem of funds is difficult to solve.The main reason is that the lithography equipment industry is too niche, and the technical threshold is very high, and it is difficult to get the favor of venture capital.It is not possible to rely on loans, huge financial costs will crush the company's cash flow, not to mention that no bank is willing to lend so much money to Pudong Microelectronics.Now Xiao Bai is 7.2 billion yuan as soon as he makes a move, which is not good, even if Pudong Microelectronic Equipment Company is listed now, there is no way to raise this huge amount of money.With this fund, Fan Donglin believes that the company will have great development in the short term."
Fan Dong, don't say kind words.I just want to know, when are you sure to make a 90N lithography machine?
”Xiao Bai shook his head with a smile and asked a more heart-wrenching question."
Xiao Dong, don't worry, I will definitely develop the 90N lithography machine within 2 years.Next, I will cooperate with some domestic universities and R&D institutions to gradually solve technical problems such as light sources and objective lenses. ”Fan Donglin seemed full of confidence, and with money in his hands, it was naturally different.In fact, the company has a considerable accumulation of technology, and there is no strength in trial and error, and now it can be more radical.Xiao Bai finally elected Zhou Siyi and joined the board of directors of Pudong Microelectronics Equipment Company as a director.He himself brushed off his clothes and returned to the deep city.Liu Xiaoling took Chenchen and didn't come back until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.This time when she went back to her hometown for the holiday, Liu's mother wanted to stay in her hometown for a while, and Liang Yuqi and her grandmother also wanted to stay for a while, but as a result, including Liang Yufen and Xiao Tianfang, they all left after the Lantern Festival in Xintun."
Brother Xiao, the county has looked for me twice, but they are still for the development of characteristic agriculture, and I didn't dare to agree."
Liu Xiaoling is also a celebrity when she returns to the county, and this time she donated a primary school to her former township on behalf of the foundation.However, for other requests made by the county, Liu Xiaoling refused.To be honest, not only her, Xiao Bai is also blind to agriculture.He wanted to help, but he didn't have a clue yet."
Xiaoling, let's talk about this matter later, we have to find a chance."
Xiao Bai is not disgusted by the county's approach, but he will not be strong.He's already helping to get in touch, and it's useless to be in a hurry if things don't progress for the time being.After the Chinese New Year.The A-share market continued to be hot, with the Shanghai Composite Index breaking through the 3,000-point mark in one fell swoop, and the bullish sentiment in the market was strong, and countless investors began to enthusiastically enter the market."
Xiao Dong, Xijiang Copper and Y-Nan Copper and other stocks have begun to rise sharply, for example, the share price of Xijiang Copper has exceeded 20 yuan per share.In addition, the price of international copper futures continues to rise, and the current price has increased by about 7 times compared with the price at which we opened our position. ”Xiao Bai came to Xiangjiang for the first time after the year, and Cui Mingda and Tao Mingyu had greater expectations for the stock market on the one hand, and expressed concern about the futures market of non-ferrous metals on the other hand."
And what do you guys think?"
Xiao Bai did not express his position, but asked the opinions of the two."
Mr.
Tao and I think it's almost time to close the position, and now that this price has entered the high-risk area, it's better to settle down."
Cui Mingda's attitude is very resolute, that is, to close the position.Xiao Bai nodded, he actually felt that in the next few months, the international copper futures market would still be bullish.However, he did not stop Cui Mingda and Tao Mingyu, and handed over the decision to the two of them.After Cui Mingda got Xiao Bai's authorization, he ordered Tao Mingyu to start gradually closing the position.When I first opened a long position, there were a few other varieties, and a total of $250 million was invested.Due to the 4-fold leverage, the actual leveraged funds are $1 billion.
