America's Road to Fame

Chapter 446
"Mr. William, this is the capacity adjustment plan that Eurasia Semiconductor Group has just sent, please take a look."

In Liberty City, in William Chen's office, Wen Qingyan knocked on the door and came in, handing a document to William Chen.

The current Eurasian Semiconductor Group, its predecessor, STMicroelectronics, has 8 fabs around the world, located in Agrate Brianza and Catania in Italy, Crolles, Rousset and Tours in France, Phoenix and Carrollton in the United States, and Singapore.

Among them, only the Crolles fab in France is a 12-inch wafer manufacturing line, and most of the others are still 8 inches.

And Hynix's production line in South Korea is still 8 inches.

When William Chen acquired these two companies, he made a promise that they would not abolish their current production lines or lay off large-scale layoffs.

What he is currently planning to do is to gradually upgrade the wafer production lines in Italy, France, the United States, and South Korea to 12 inches, transfer all the original 8-inch production lines to Huaguo, and build a new wafer production base.

Of course, the 12-inch production line has extremely high requirements for equipment, so the investment required for upgrading will be astronomical.

However, this is completely necessary. After Eurasia Semiconductor completes this technology upgrade, it will greatly enhance the technical strength of the entire group, and their production capacity will also be greatly improved.

Now is the low tide period of the semiconductor industry, and it is also a good opportunity to expand production capacity.

When the migration and upgrading of these production lines are completed, it is almost time for the upcycle of the semiconductor industry, and it is just time to make a lot of money.

It’s not that other companies don’t know this, but the start of the production line is just the beginning. At the beginning, the new production line is definitely not high because of the relationship between technology and personnel, and it needs to invest a huge amount of money. In the short term, the itinerary will suffer a huge loss, so it is difficult for them to make up their minds to do so.

It is often a gradual transformation of one production line after another. A large-scale transformation plan like Chen William's is completely crazy in the eyes of others.

Moreover, in this way, the relocation of equipment, the installation and familiarization of new production lines all take time. It can be said that during this process, production cannot be carried out, but wages must be paid as usual, which puts great financial pressure on the company. If William Chen didn't have enough funds, he wouldn't dare to play like this.

But in fact, for him, the stagnation of the production capacity of some production lines is equivalent to the reduction of supply in the market, so the price response will rise, and in short, he will not lose too much.

After William Chen concentrated on reading the plan, his consultant team also made a data prediction analysis for this plan, and the estimated loss caused by it was completely acceptable to him.

The only problem is that the current 12-inch wafer production technology still has some restrictions on Huaguo, so it can only transfer the 8-inch production line to Huaguo, while the 12-inch production line is prioritized in Europe and the United States.

There is no other way, otherwise, if possible, building a new 12-inch production line in Huaguo is the easiest and feasible thing, and it will save money and time.

After reading that there were no problems, William Chen signed on it. Next, the Eurasian Semiconductor Group will implement this plan, and a project costing more than one billion US dollars will be determined in this way.

"You have been working for a while, how do you feel, are you still used to it? How does it compare with your previous job?"

Handing the document to Wen Qingyan, William Chen glanced at her and asked.

"It feels very different. The work I handled before was more within a framework, but now, the scope of things that need to be touched is too wide, but I will use the fastest time to adapt, Mr. William. "

It is indeed different from before. After arriving at the position of personal assistant, Wen Qingyan deeply realized that there are really too many things to deal with now.

And these are all important matters after the rear assistant team has been screened.And the most important thing is that what she needs to face now is the business on a global scale. It can be said that 24 hours a day, maybe in the middle of the night in the area where she is located, there will be sudden important things delivered, so is it necessary? William Chen dealt with it immediately, so she had to make a decision.

It was impossible for her to say that she had to wake William Chen up to decide everything.But it can't delay the things that really need to be decided in a timely manner. How to screen for this requires her to think more.

You know, what she is responsible for is only a part of the affairs, and the current three personal assistants, it can be said that they all need to face relatively high-intensity work, and the importance of them cannot be ignored. A business involving hundreds of millions of dollars.

"Erica should have taught you some key points before. Your work is not trivial. It will definitely be very tiring. I will authorize you to form the secretariat by yourself. Most of the work , leave it to the people below to do it, you are personal assistants, what you need is decisive work, not to get yourself busy."

"Understood, Mr. William, I will try my best."

Wen Qingyan glanced at William Chen and replied respectfully.But for this matter, she couldn't help but think of other things that Erica had told them at that time, and her heart beat a little faster, and she didn't know when...

……

To be honest, if William Chen wants to work now, his work can keep him from sleeping every day, because there are too many companies in him, all over the world, so it can be said that every moment, there will be There are things that need to be decided.

But it is impossible for him to spend all his time in these jobs, which is why he hired so many professional managers and management, and his support team alone may be more powerful than those of small companies. There are too many employees, all he needs is strategic considerations, most of the things can be handed over to his subordinates.

If you can't do it well, replace it.

But after all, even the president and CEO of the following group have certain authority, so the final decision on many things will still be handed over to him.

Therefore, it took him two full days to deal with some of the backlog of contracts that he had to sign himself.

Seeing that the stack of documents that Cheng Biru had just brought was finally finished, even though Chen Weilian's body was exceptionally strong, he felt a little bit tired, so he stretched his waist and relaxed his body.

"Mr. William, let me rub your shoulders."

At this moment, Cheng Biru, who was standing beside him, spoke to him in a gentle voice.

William Chen nodded, and felt her delicate hands land on the sides of his neck...
