Chapter 615: There is a world of difference between the two

There is no reason to be said about the rise and fall of semiconductors, and the destruction is huge.

It took Osmai just five years to grab half of Connie's market.

However, there are many other factors in the failure of the island country's semiconductor, which can be said to be difficult to recover.

Until 2015, the general layout of the lithography machine was decided.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is that Connie has a tall building, Osmai has hosted guests, and the remaining lithography machine companies have all fallen down.

The formation of this pattern means that China will be subject to various constraints from abroad in terms of chips in the future.

The difficulties that Warwick encountered in his previous life were largely due to the constraints of chips.

If we can take Osmai's shares now and let Warwick start entering the lithography machine industry now, we will have an absolute advantage and this situation will not happen again.

"He is the marketing manager, uh...it doesn't actually count. They only have a dozen people in the company now."

Smith thought for a while and decided to tell the truth to Chen Jianghai.

Now Chen Jianghai is his partner and half of his boss, so he dare not deceive the other party.

But what he couldn't understand was that Chen Jianghai seemed to suddenly become very interested.

"Smith, bring your friends with you, I'll treat you to dinner in Fuchun tonight."

Chen Jianghai patted Smith on the shoulder and said.

Smith was stunned for a moment, but without asking any more questions, nodding and responding, "Okay, then we'll see you tonight."

"See you tonight."

After seeing Smith away, Chen Jianghai immediately called Ren Shifei.

Regarding lithography machines, Chen Jianghai has always wanted to enter this industry as soon as possible.

But no one can show you the way, and Warwick has just started, and entering the lithography machine industry is simply a fantasy.

You should know that there are more than 100,000 parts for a lithography machine, and it will take several years to adjust it alone.

Warwick, who has no foundation at all, may not have any of them if he wants to study lithography machines by himself.

Now Osmai's appearance has allowed Chen Jianghai to see the light of hope.

In this case, Chen Jianghai decided to let Ren Shifei start the research on lithography machines as soon as possible, no matter how much it costs, it is worth it.

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

The phone was quickly connected, and Ren Shifei's voice came over.

"Mr. Ren, I have a situation to communicate with you."

Afterwards, Chen Jianghai talked about the lithography machine in a few words and asked if Warwick had the ability to do this thing by himself.

Ren Shifei on the other end of the phone never expected that Chen Jianghai would suddenly mention this matter.

You should know that what Warwick is doing now is a digital programmable switch, which has nothing to do with this lithography machine.

"Mr. Chen, why are we doing this?"

Ren Shifei asked in confusion.

Chen Jianghai was slightly stunned when he heard this. Why did he ask this?

But he soon realized that the suggestions he made were too advanced.

Chen Jianghai can understand the importance of chips because he knows that chips in later generations play an important role in various fields.

Nowadays, the domestic attention to lithography machines is not enough.

Even Ren Shifei felt that this thing had little to do with them for the time being.

When it was time to get strangled by someone with a chip, it was too late.

"I want to invest in this industry, what do you think?"

Chen Jianghai said in a different way.

Chen Jianghai has figured it out now. Warwick is just starting out now, and it is really a bit difficult to ask him to build a lithography machine.

Ren Shifei was silent for a while before answering: "Mr. Chen, as far as I know, the resolution of domestic lithography machines is 1.25 microns, which is the level of foreign countries in the 1980s. Now foreign data in this regard has reached the nano level."

From Ren Shifei's answer, it can be seen that he does not have much confidence in this industry.

The most important thing is that the current domestic market atmosphere is like this. It is better to buy than to build, and it is better to rent than to buy.

It is precisely because many people have this mentality that the development of many industries has been kept in place.

When I want to develop and catch up in the future, I find that I have no foundation at all, and even the threshold has been stuck tightly by foreign countries.

"Mr. Chen, and the investment in the lithography machine industry is quite large. Even if you invest several hundred million, you may not be able to see splashes."

When Ren Shifei saw that Chen Jianghai did not speak, he added another sentence.

I have to say that the lithography machine industry is indeed not something that ordinary people can enter just by wanting to enter.

Funds alone can discourage 99% of investors.

Besides, this industry does not just invest once, but requires continuous blood transfusions.

More importantly, it doesn’t mean that you can make money by investing.

Take Osman, who dominated the lithography machine industry in his previous life, for example. It was not until the research and development of euv lithography machines were successful that it was the beginning of profit.

It took Osmai a full twenty-six years to develop the euv lithography machine from the entry road.

Let me talk about a very simple data. Osmer invested in the EUV lithography machine to reach a terrifying 6 billion euros, which is more than 47 billion yuan in RMB.

From this data, we can fully see that the lithography machine industry is definitely a big money-burning player.

In the past, many Internet companies said that they spent money to seize the market, but compared with the investment of top-level technology research and development funds, the two are not at the same level.

The meanings of the two are also very different.

When Chen Jianghai heard Ren Shifei say this, his heart sank slightly. It seemed that the other party did not agree with the proposal.

"Mr. Ren, what do you mean is that you don't recommend me to enter this industry?"

Chen Jianghai asked.

Ren Shifei thought about it for a moment and replied: "Mr. Chen, what I mean is that if you want to enter this industry, you have to be mentally prepared to burn money."

"Don't worry about this. I've made enough mental preparations. No matter how much money I invest, I'll spare you."

Chen Jianghai replied word by word.

Ren Shifei, who was on the other end of the phone, was relieved when he heard Chen Jianghai's words.

"Mr. Chen, I'm going to tell you, our Warwick actually established an integrated circuit design center the year before yesterday, and we have some experience in this regard."

Chen Jianghai couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked: "Mr. Ren, what do you mean?"

"Mr. Chen, listen to me and tell you slowly."

Ren Shifei sighed and then expressed his concerns.

There are two main aspects, one is the funding issue he just mentioned.

However, after receiving Chen Jianghai's affirmative answer, he no longer worried about it.

After several contacts with Chen Jianghai, Ren Shifei knew that the other party was a person who said the same thing and said it was the only way to do it.

Since he could make such a great determination and do whatever it takes, it means he really wanted to get this done.

As for the second thing, what Ren Shifei is most worried about: that is the technology blockade abroad.

You should know that the field of lithography machines is still the only one in the island country.

Behind the island country, you can also see the shadow of the United States.

As for the technology of lithography machines, China's situation is actually very dangerous.

What Ren Shifei was worried about was that he invested the money, but in the end he was struggling and there was no progress at all.

But if you don't invest money, the industry will always stagnate.

Therefore, the domestic lithography machine industry is in a dilemma.
