Rebirth: From catering group to world’s richest man

“I suspect that this Hanxin No. 1 chip is probably a foreign chip.”Lin Shen said,”To put it bluntly, the inventor of Hanxin No. 1 may have bought a foreign chip and used it to defraud the country of funds.”

“How can this be!

“Ni Guanglan was shocked, because what Lin Shen said was so unbelievable,”This is impossible!

Who has the guts to deceive the government? Moreover, the inventor Qian Jin is a participant in the national 863 project.

He has experience working on semiconductor projects in major foreign manufacturers.

I have also met this person.

We have cooperated with Shai Microelectronics Design Center and he once visited our company.

Pass.

There’s nothing wrong with this guy’s resume.

” (863 Plan: the national high-tech research and development plan implemented in March 1986）

“I dare not say whether there is any fraud in his resume. Anyway, if he says he can develop his own chip, I am sure it is false. Lin Shen said,”If he can really develop a chip by himself, it means he has mastered a series of patented technologies. But as far as I know, Qian Jin has not applied for any semiconductor-related patents, right?” You will know this once you check it.”

Ni Guanglan seemed a little shaken by what Lin Shen said, because deep down in his heart, he couldn’t accept it. Suddenly without warning, someone held up a chip and said that they succeeded.

You know, Lin Shen gives them so much money every year, They have spent so many years to finally make progress, and now someone has even taken out the chip. Ni Guanglan is not convinced.

However, Lin Shen just noticed a hint of information from Ni Guanglan’s words, which is Hanxin No. 1. The inventor, Qianjin, once visited Zulong Technology. I wonder if it has anything to do with his early fraud in this life.

Lin Shen thought about the problem that Ni Guanglan just said that Hanxin No. 1 is not inferior to Zulong Technology’s own products, and asked. Said:”Gong Ni, how far has our own chip achieved? I remember Mr. Duan told me before that we will make some breakthroughs this year.”

Hearing Lin Shen’s question, Ni Guanglan quickly came back to her senses and said,”Mr. Lin! This is another thing I want to tell you. In fact, just half a month ago, we produced our Zulong’s first chip”

“oh? Is there such a thing?”Lin Shen was greatly surprised.

“right. Ni Guanglan immediately took out a chip from a matchbox-sized transparent plastic box from the workbench and said,”This is a computer chip. We made it with our own photolithography machine, and the chip itself It is also designed by ourselves”

“oh?” Lin Shen was extremely surprised, and a little surprised, and said,”The photolithography machine has also been made?”

“The principle of the photolithography machine is actually very simple.

It’s just that it’s difficult to overcome the technical aspects.

Take the lens of a lithography machine for example.

We don’t have such excellent lenses in China.

The lens material of a lithography machine needs to be uniform and the finish needs to be polished manually.

This requires decades or hundreds of years of technical accumulation.

At present, our lenses are still imported from abroad, and each lens costs US$60,000.

“Ni Guanglan talked eloquently.

Of course Lin Shen knew this very well, otherwise Ouyang Qianyi would not have been allowed to take over the shares of Carl Zeiss and become the major shareholder of this well-known lens factory. In fact, Zulong Technology now uses The lenses are all purchased from Zeiss

“There is also the light source of the lithography machine. Currently, the best light source in the world is controlled by Stars and Stripes. But the drawings about the light source of the lithography machine we got from the Bedelev Institute were of great help.”Ni Guanglan said,”Those five scientists from the North also helped a lot. Now we have our own light source”

“oh?”Lin Shen was another unexpected surprise.

It seems that the five northern engineers who were taken in at the beginning were useful.

Lin Shen took the chip developed by his company from Ni Guanglan and said,”Not bad, well done. By the way, can I have a look at the engraving machine?”

“sure. Ni Guanglan said.

The lithography machine is placed in a special room. The room must maintain its own humidity and temperature, and isolate static electricity. Lin Shen put on anti-static clothing in accordance with the regulations, and then followed Ni Guanglan into the room where the lithography machine was installed. In the room.

In the room, a huge photolithography machine was placed in front of Lin Shen.

“At present, although our photolithography machines have been manufactured by ourselves, the technology has reached the world level. However, there are still certain problems with the yield rate, and we will continue to improve them. Ni Guanglan said

“This is indeed a problem.”Lin Shen nodded. The yield rate is also very important. Others produce 10 chips and 8 are qualified. If you produce 10 chips and only one is usable, then you are still competitive. But no matter what, the level of craftsmanship can Reaching the world level is already quite rare. Lin Shen must give Ni Guanglan a thumbs up for being able to produce computer chips through this machine, not to mention other chips.

“By the way, can the current process of photolithography machines be improved further? Lin Shen asked

“We will make further efforts. Other manufacturers in the world are actually working hard in this regard.”Ni Guanglan said,”The most powerful lithography machine manufacturer now is Nikon, followed by Canon. Their process can reach 157nm. Ni Guanglan said

“Um.”Lin Shen nodded.

What he didn’t say was that in the next few years, the improvement of photolithography machine technology will collectively encounter bottlenecks. At this time, ASML stepped forward and made technological innovations. From then on, it has been unparalleled. Nikon and Canon are all behind P shares. As for this technological innovation, Lin Shen knows the key, which is to transform the traditional air as the medium into water as the medium and develop an immersion lithography machine.

Standing in front of the lithography machine developed by Zulong Technology, Lin Shen couldn’t help but reach out and touch this magical machine.

Then Lin Shen’s eyes were fixed on the lithography machine, as if he wanted to see through it. Just like the machine that carries the future of Zulong Technology,

Lin Shen felt that all the design drawings of this photolithography machine appeared three-dimensionally in his mind, as if in perspective, and every part seemed to be disassembled. Fly out from the drawings and turn into thousands of parts

“This is……”

Lin Shen was a little stunned.

Did he see a perspective view of the machine? Including workflow? Everything is clear?

Lin Shen had read all the books he could find related to semiconductor technology, but something so unbelievable shouldn’t have happened.
