Technology derived

Chapter 547

There is no way for chip manufacturers to find mortal semiconductors in such an endless stream.

Originally, from the standpoint of many chip manufacturers, it is not a problem to find an OEM. They are all paid OEMs, and there is no loss for chip manufacturers.

After all, whether it was Intel, TSMC, or Samsung, there was a gap in process technology, but not much.

But now, mortal semiconductors have been born out of nowhere, with a comprehensive technological level that surpasses Intel, Samsung, and TSMC by 20% to 30%, and can completely beat the three.

Therefore, major chip manufacturers will naturally choose mortal semiconductors decisively, even if the cost is higher, it is not a problem.

What's more, after the Apple chip gate incident, mortal semiconductor foundry has become the most recognized golden sign by consumers.

Therefore, major chip manufacturers would rather spend more money on the 14nm process of mortal semiconductors.

But to everyone's helplessness, Wang Fan refused. Even if Nvidia came to the door, Wang Fan politely refused!

You know, fabs have always been thirsty for chip orders.

Even if the high-end 14nm is not enough, we will try our best to stabilize customers and replace it with the mid-range 20nm.

But Wang Fan directly refused!
This style makes chip giants such as Nvidia and LG very speechless, and even directly stated that they have never seen anything like this.

But Wang Fan's refusal does not mean that giants such as Nvidia and LG have given up. He even bluntly said that as long as Wang Fan nods, the chip order will be delivered immediately!
Although this kind of behavior is a bit low-key, but there is nothing to do, who made the technological level of mortal semiconductors so advanced that it is unrivaled in the world!
Of course, the reason why Wang Fan rejected these orders was also a little helpless.

Although 9 fabs have been acquired and upgraded, the production capacity of mortal semiconductors has soared sharply, but the overall production capacity, just to meet Apple, Huawei, and MediaTek, has used up two-thirds.

The remaining one-third was kept by Wang Fan for himself!
You know, since the launch of the smart bicycle project, Mortal Technology’s self-developed chips have long been on the agenda.

In other words, all kinds of self-developed chips required by Mortal Technology have already been launched, and the production capacity is abundant, accounting for about one-third of the total production capacity, almost catching up with Apple!

Therefore, Wang Fan can only refuse chip orders from Qualcomm, Nvidia, and LG.

Of course, he has other considerations, such as agreements with Samsung and Intel.

Of course it's not just to fulfill the agreement, Wang Fan is not so boring.

After all, it was agreed at the beginning that Mortal Semiconductor would no longer take the initiative to recruit their customers, but they did not say that they could not accept the unsolicited applications from their customers!

Therefore, if chip giants such as Qualcomm, Nvidia, and LG come to your door, even if Wang Fan takes over, there will be no problem.

But Wang Fan had to use his own production capacity and was powerless, so he refused.

However, it is not Wang Fan's style to just give up the rabbit he got.

What's the matter, I should take this opportunity to blackmail him again and blackmail him again!

So, he picked up his phone and sent another text message to Samsung Chairman Lee Kun-hee:

A few days ago, Albert Kingsley, chairman of Qualcomm, came and applied for cooperation with Mortal Semiconductor. He offered a high price for our 14nm process!

In the distant South Korea, the chairman of Samsung is worried about the current chip industry, and even drinking coffee feels like cat urine.

And when he saw Wang Fan's text message, he couldn't help but spray it out.

Then, without wiping his mouth, he quickly replied: Mr. Wang, you can't do this!We have an agreement that we will sell you three first-class fabs. If you don’t dig Qualcomm’s chip orders, this is our cooperation! You Chinese people value credit the most, and you can’t mess around!
Wang Fan replied with a smile: Well, according to the agreement, I didn't take the initiative to dig Qualcomm. It's because your craftsmanship is too weak, forcing others to find it by themselves!
Li Jianxi's complexion changed drastically, he understood everything in an instant, and fell into Wang Fan's trick again emotionally.

It was agreed at the beginning, it seems that mortal semiconductors do not take the initiative to dig, rather than delivering them to your door!

Sitting in the office with bright windows, Wang Fan imagined Li Jianxi's wonderful face at this moment, couldn't help feeling amused, turned around, got a can of beer, and relaxed.

Soon, Li Jianxi replied again: Well, you won, tell me, what do you want this time?
For Li Jianxi's reaction, Wang Fan was very surprised. He didn't expect Li Jianxi to compromise so soon.

But think about it, now, Samsung Semiconductor is no longer what it used to be, except for its own orders, there is almost only one big Qualcomm!
Therefore, once Wang Fan snatches Qualcomm's chip orders, Samsung can only cry.

Wang Fan thought for a while and replied: We reject Qualcomm's order, but you have to sell me 3 more first-class fabs!

Li Jianxi pondered for a while, struggling very much. He knew that once the fab was sold to Wang Fan, the strength of Mortal Semiconductor would become even more terrifying, making it even more difficult for Samsung to catch up.

It's just that the current situation is too realistic, it's impossible not to give it!

In the end, Li Jianxi still compromised: yes, but only 2 first-class fabs!

Wang Fan nodded: Yes, I will find someone to take over as soon as possible...

Li Kunxi: ...

Thus, a forced and forced transaction was born.

An indelible trace of humiliation in the history of Samsung's development has just been completed!
Then, Wang Fan sent messages to TSMC and Intel respectively.

However, Intel is not deeply involved in the world of mobile phone chips, so it doesn't agree very much. In the end, it only gave it to a fab with low efficiency.

As for TSMC, they cooperated surprisingly. There are two 2-inch fabs, one in Taiwan and one in the United States. They are not generally advanced!

In this regard, Wang Fan bluntly said that Zhang Zhongmou is on the road and has development!

On the other side, Zhang Zhongmou couldn't help but sneer while looking at the phone, very gloomy.

He is even thinking about his big plan in his heart, and it seems that it has almost begun!
…………

Another five first-class 5-inch fabs were acquired. Although it cost another 12 billion US dollars, Wang Fan was still in a good mood.

After such a month, the five major fabs have undergone transformation and upgrading, and their production capacity will surely soar again.

At that time, the overall production capacity of mortal semiconductors can increase by another 30% in an instant.

Since then, Mortal Semiconductor can satisfy Apple, Huawei, MediaTek, and Mortal Technology's own chip production capacity, and still has the ability to swallow orders from other chip giants, such as Qualcomm, LG, and Nvidia...

Of course, a good reason will be needed at that time, after all, there is an agreement now!

However, just as Wang Fan was thinking about it, he received a call from Cook...
