Chapter 53 Sitting on the sidelines After Jin Ze finished speaking, the office fell into silence. Everyone present is no layman. Sanxin Company is the real industry leader in the chip field and occupies an extremely important position in the semiconductor market. Storage technology, chip technology, and wafer manufacturing are all important industries under Sanxin. And now, Xinghai Technology has actually begun to develop graphene chips, a technology that is still in the theoretical verification stage. To be honest, if Jinze had said this at the beginning, everyone present would have definitely laughed them off. A small company that has just acquired some technical capital is actually trying to develop graphene chips, a high-tech product that is believed to be able to replace traditional silicon-based chips. They even think that Xinghai Technology is trying to make money by using this gimmick. but! Xinghai Technology is still an unlisted industrial technology company. The claim that it is a money-making scheme is not true.
Jin Ze looked at the performance of everyone present and nodded secretly. He finally made these people take it seriously. He turned to Jin Zhiyong and apologized, "I'm sorry, Grandpa, for using your connections to detain Xinghai's lithography equipment. That's why I didn't inform you because I was afraid I wouldn't have enough time." Upon hearing this, Jin Zhiyong also reacted and immediately shook his head to indicate that he didn't care. Jin Ze turned to the crowd and said, "Of course, I am not ignorant and ordered to seize their equipment out of thin air. As far as I know, Xinghai has made progress in the early research and development of this project. They can already mass-produce carbon nanotubes that can be directly used in chip manufacturing. And the cost of purifying graphene is nearly half of the current market price!" As soon as he finished speaking, some exclamations could be heard in the conference room. Graphene has been on the market for quite some time. Over the years, various related companies have paid more or less attention to it or have studied ways to purify it, but the best they can do so far can only keep the price at around RMB 1,000 per gram. It took Xinghai Technology only six months to directly produce high-purity graphene with nano-carbon tube-level structure, and it also reduced the purification cost by nearly half. It is no wonder that this heir used his personal connections to seize Xinghai Technology's lithography equipment and returned to China urgently to convene a meeting of senior shareholders. It now seems that Xinghai is indeed an emerging enterprise with great strength in technology research and development. This needs to be taken seriously. "Jin Ze, is the source of the information accurate?" Jin Zhiyong's eyes revealed a solemn expression, and he still doubted the authenticity of the source of the intelligence. "Grandpa, after I got this news, I also investigated Xinghai's recent funding direction, so it shouldn't be wrong. If they didn't do that, they wouldn't have inexplicably spent 15 billion to purchase a photolithography machine." After Jin Ze finished speaking, everyone in the conference room nodded. He thought for a moment, and continued with a gloomy face: "Sanxin must pay full attention to Xinghai Technology's research in the chip field. In view of their previous research and development capabilities in high-voltage radio and solid-state battery technology, we have to admit the fact that this Xinghai Fanren usually brings too many surprises to people." "Tell me what you think." Jin Zhiyong spoke again. Unlike previous meetings where he would just sit there in a trance, today he spoke a lot more. Upon hearing this, Jin Ze did not continue to expand Xinghai's information, but told him his way of dealing with the situation. The first thing is to inform all companies in the industry of this information in an attempt to attract the attention of various semiconductor companies.
At the same time, the White Treaty Alliance was reported to include Xinghai Technology in the embargo list of high-tech equipment. These were the only two items he could think of for now. There is no way. As Xinghai Technology is a non-listed company, Jinze can only think of limited targeted strategies. "What about cooperation? Mr. Jin, I'm not asking, can't we cooperate with them in development? As far as I know, Xinghai Technology and our Sanxin have had a good cooperative attitude in the high-voltage radio and solid-state battery business before." The person who spoke was an executive sitting at the end of the seat. Jin Ze looked in the direction of the voice and couldn't help but frown slightly. This is a company executive in charge of the battery business. Once the relationship between Xinghai and Sanxin breaks down, the battery business will inevitably be affected. But Jin Ze would not care about these. "Hey department manager, don't you know how important the semiconductor business is to the company? Xinghai Technology has never been willing to accept any investment, not to mention that this technology can only be mastered by our Baiyue Alliance, not China. Do you understand?" After saying this, the manager who raised the question turned pale. Indeed, in the field of semiconductor chips, the White Alliance has been trying to restrict China's development in all aspects. If Bai Yue knew about the cooperation with them on such a project, no matter how powerful Sanxin Group was, it would not be able to withstand the sanctions imposed by Bai Yue on it through the National Alliance. Jin Ze withdrew his gaze and looked at the people in the field. Seeing that no one objected, he finally looked at Jin Zhiyong. He knew that although he now had a great say in Sanxin, the one who could really make the decision on such important matters was his grandfather. Jin Zhiyong closed his eagle eyes slightly, and the office fell silent again. He and Jinze have different considerations. As China's international voice has gradually increased over the years, the three companies must be extremely cautious when dealing with Chinese companies. Although the Austronesian countries themselves are not members of the Belarusian Treaty Organization, they have close cooperative relations with it, and it can even be said that their interests are closely related. Once they step out to act as the pioneer, they will definitely face pressure from China. Jin Ze did not dare to disturb his grandfather's meditation and waited quietly. He knew what his grandfather was thinking, but he felt that his grandfather often paid too much attention to the influence of China. In his opinion, China is backward. Although it has made good progress in economy and technology in recent years, the future is always in the hands of their Baiyue Alliance. Take the current chip field as an example. The White Alliance has mastered the most advanced 3-nanometer processing technology, and China recently announced its victory in the 14-nanometer process. The difficulty faced in the future will increase exponentially, not to mention the EUV lithography machine, which is hailed as the most sophisticated instrument. Given that China's technological capabilities were decades behind, it was simply a pipe dream to complete the research and development of such cutting-edge equipment in a short period of time. He was very dissatisfied with Jin Zhiyong's cautious attitude towards Chinese affairs. He noticed that the old man's eyelids trembled slowly, and Jinze quickly put away these thoughts. Now is not the time for him to refute Jin Zhiyong's attitude. He will consider these things when he actually takes over Samsin Group in the future. After a long time, Jin Zhiyong slowly opened his eagle eyes. "For the time being, just inform the White Alliance of the situation as a routine report. The company's semiconductor R&D department immediately submitted a feasibility report on the development of graphene chips.
Meeting adjourned, Jinze stays." He spoke very little, but everyone present knew his attitude. This person who sticks out like a sore thumb is not worthy of the trust. Everyone then filed out, and in a blink of an eye, only the grandfather and grandson were left in the meeting room. "grandfather." Jin Zhiyong waved his hand to stop his grandson from speaking. He knew that Jin Ze had always had a different attitude towards China than he did. "I know what you want to say, but just do as I say. Believe me, the United States takes semiconductors more seriously than we do. Just report this as a routine matter. There's no need to do much else." Upon hearing this, Jin Ze lowered his head and thought for a while, then a look of relief appeared on his face. Indeed, over the years, if it were not for the restrictions and sanctions imposed by the United States, China would not have been able to embark on the path of developing its own chips. The United States followed closely and blocked China's road completely. On this issue, the three faiths only need to sit on the sidelines and watch. (End of this chapter)
