Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 1145 Expanding the scale (4k)

"Boss Fang, where are you?"

"I just watched the terracotta warriors and horses with Lao Zhang. Many terracotta warriors and horses have lost their heads."

"Okay, I'm working hard in Shencheng to go public on e-buy, and you go on a trip with the old man."

"Hey, Mr. Su, Mr. Fang is speaking in voice." Zhang Rujing suddenly appeared in the conversation between Fang Zhuo and Su Wei.

"Cough, cough..." Su Wei responded to Zhang Rujing's kind reminder with a violent cough, she did not expect to be "countered" suddenly like this.

"Boss Su, don't worry, Boss Fang won't lose me if he follows me." Zhang Rujing teased kindly.

Although Su Wei doesn't work in semiconductors, she also respects Mr. Zhang very much. Hearing this, she can only end the call properly.

Fang Zhuo put away his mobile phone, continued to travel with the old man, and ran to the next stop, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and chatted about his views on the semiconductor market and some gossip along the way.

Like Huahong No. [-] Factory, which was rushed by the leaders.

"The matter of the fifth factory was too fast, and I was a little caught off guard. I was thinking of talking to both sides after returning to Shencheng." Fang Zhuo sat in the car and mentioned Huahong's problem.

He spent three days in Qindao before, and spent six days in the capital before coming to Xi'an. He planned to finish his trip next month and return to Shencheng to do this matter again. Unexpectedly...

"It's really too fast. Let's talk about how Huahong works..." After Zhang Rujing knew Mr. Fang's plan, he also thought about it from the side, and felt that there was a certain degree of difficulty in it. It was agreed by the leader.

Fang Zhuo nodded, and pondered: "Old Zhang, do you play games? Do you know the faction's reputation?"

He continued: "It may be that my reputation in the leadership camp is relatively high, so everyone is more enthusiastic. Another reason is that the direction of this matter is recognized."

During the six days of the trip to the capital, he spent one day talking about the status and hidden worries of the ice core, and also mentioned that the stress test to be done is not waiting for the time.

"It's not good for the leader to tell me a lot of things. He can't tell me, a businessman, that he won't make money this time. It depends on the foundation and the long-term."

"Even if he said it like this, he can't tell me, a businessman, that if he doesn't make money next time, he has to consider the foundation and long-term."

"But I took the initiative to say that the effect is probably so surprisingly good."

Fang Zhuo said with a smile.

"Mr. Fang is not what he used to be. He is not afraid of spending money anymore, right?" Zhang Rujing saw the "rich aura" he had become familiar with recently, and felt more and more in his heart that Mr. Fang had a considerable amount of underwater funds.

"Not being afraid to spend money and being willing to spend money are two different things." Fang Zhuo smiled slightly, and then said casually, "Speaking of which, I'm going to buy the fifth factory this time. I was going back to Shencheng to chat with another shareholder of it. Wang Wenyang is very happy." Interesting, even the English name of Hongli's company Grace is Lu Anni's name, what happened to him when he left Formosa Plastics?"

Because of the ice core, Fang Zhuo naturally dabbled in various things in the semiconductor industry, but he would not delve into it unless it was close to his eyes.

This time, thinking about Huahong No. [-] Factory, he remembered such a thing, and the old Zhang in front of him was both a person in the industry and came from Baodao, so he must be clear about it.

"I don't care about these things." Zhang Rujing shook his head, "But I feel pretty good about Wang Wenyang, it's just that... he's a bit more disciplined, oh, I'm talking about his career."

He glanced at Mr. Fang, this is the most unruly thing.

Fang Zhuo nodded slightly and turned his head. The current development of Grace Semiconductor is average. It has an 8-inch production line in Zhangjiang, and this joint investment with Huahong can also show some clues.

Perhaps, eating one is eating, and eating two is also eating?

Full range of tests from 8 inches to 12 inches.

He was thinking about this in his heart, and after a while he suddenly heard Zhang Rujing's voice.

"Is there a faction reputation in World of Warcraft?"

Fang Zhuo looked at Zhang Rujing in surprise.

Zhang Rujing said a little proudly: "I got very close to young people in the factory, and we talked about everything, didn't you expect that?"

"No." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "I was thinking, this old man is really old, and his brain circuits are too slow, and he only took over this job after he arrived at the Big Wild Goose Pagoda."

Zhang Rujing was slightly angry: "Your reputation with me has declined."

Fang Zhuo praised: "Old Zhang, you've done a good job with this."

The two got out of the car while talking and laughing, and met their old friend, Judy who was already doing economic work in Shaanxi Province.

Needless to say, Fang Zhuo, Zhang Rujing and Judy are also very close, and they often dealt with each other because of work.

"Old leader, I miss you so much." Fang Zhuo and Judy shook hands tightly.

"Mr. Fang, I miss you so much. Ever since I came here, I have been looking forward to a big entrepreneur like Mr. Fang coming to invest in us." Judy laughed, "I'm looking forward to you today, It's not easy."

Zhang Rujing smiled and listened to the two exchanging heartfelt words, the exchange of greetings was normal, but there was a bit of yin and yang in it.

He is quite clear about the character of this leader, and he can take jokes. From Lin'an to Shencheng and then to Shaanxi Province, he has a rich and solid work history.

This time I went to Xi'an, first to see Xidian, then to the research center acquired by Bingxin, and then to visit a series of related companies such as "Zhongxing Niangjia" 771.

In the end, it was Judy who came back from a field trip and had an unusual friendship.

Perhaps it is precisely because of her experience and extensive contacts in the most economically developed area in China that Judy is very popular in Shaanxi Province.

A group of people visited the Big Wild Goose Pagoda very quickly, and then quickly changed places for a walk.

Judy entertained Bing Xin and his group because it was somewhat personal. He was really happy to see Mr. Fang, the God of Wealth, especially since the other party was here for semiconductors, so that would be even better.

Mr. Fang has always been willing to spend money in this regard.

Even after coming to Shaanxi Province, when Judy dreamed back in the middle of the night, he still regretted that he did not try his best to settle the ice core in Shencheng, which was a regret of his tenure.

Of course, he is willing to see that the ice core is getting better and better.

Judy remembered bitterness and sweetness, and quickly turned the topic to work.

"Mr. Fang, I think Bingxin has taken over Qimonda's research center. Don't you want to take this opportunity to gather our Northwest semiconductor talents and resources?"

"With the foundation laid by Infineon in the past, the current province attaches great importance to semiconductors, and the future will be an industrial cluster in a region. This kind of advantage is not easy to find."

"You guys are very sincere."

Judy tried hard to promote, and even gave a local accent.

Fang Zhuo's face was serious: "Old leader, I also inspected the industrial environment during this trip. I am very satisfied with Xi'an, but..."

He met Judy's expectant eyes, and said seriously: "Bing Xin has no money now."

"Boss Fang was joking, Bing Xin has no money, why don't you have money?" Judy said.

Fang Zhuo replied: "Bingxin needs to acquire Huahong No. [-] Factory in the near future, and is already raising funds."

Judy locked onto the project in Zhangjiang within two seconds, and said in surprise, "Huahong Fifth Factory? Acquisition? Is Huahong willing to sell it?"

Although he left Shencheng, he still understood the situation there, especially the old Huahong company, and the production line of the fifth factory was definitely a high hope.

Preliminary research, application from above, decision-making... all the hard work and hard work in it... it's all a wedding dress...

As soon as Judy wandered around in her mind, she guessed that there was a special approval for the ice core, and then the green light was given all the way.

"Well, it can be considered a coincidence, hit it off." Fang Zhuo said lightly.

Judy was suspicious, but quickly thought about the strength of Mr. Fang's funds on this matter.

He was a little uncertain, so he smiled and said: "This is a good thing for the development and growth of Bingxin, Shencheng's industrial environment is indeed the first in China, Hua Hong, um, Hua Hong's... well done. "

Hearing Judy's tone, Zhang Rujing couldn't help laughing.

Hearing this smile, Judy knew that the inside story might be more exaggerated than she imagined, but she still said seriously: "Special circumstances, special treatment, Mr. Fang, I've known him for so many years, if he doesn't say anything else, Bing Xin's One piece never fails."

Zhang Rujing nodded with a smile, this is right.

"Okay, old leader, I have been asking Lao Zhang from Qindao about the mystery of SMIC's diamond-shaped layout. The industrial environment here in Xi'an is indeed very good in China. We can follow the investment process step by step." Fang Zhuo Smiling to the tone.

Before its domestic expansion, SMIC was known as the "diamond layout". Since 05, it has rapidly established production lines in Wuhan, Beijing, Tianjin, Shencheng, Pengcheng and other cities through acquisitions, joint ventures with local governments, and escrow management. , Involving not only wafer foundry, but also downstream packaging testing and on-chip color filter lenses and other fields, the scale is very large.

This put a high load on SMIC, and after the international market went down, the pressure was even greater.

In contrast, the development of Ice Core in Luzhou is naturally not lacking in invitations from various places, but the Ice Core under the leadership of Qiu Ciyun is to maintain the scale and focus on tackling key problems.

When Zhang Rujing was in office, Fang Zhuo could not have a deep discussion with him on this aspect, but now he chatted freely.

What was SMIC's decision-making logic back then?Looking back now, was there a misjudgment?

The answer seems to be yes.

However, when Fang Zhuo heard Zhang Rujing's conditions, he had to admit that it was difficult not to make a similar decision.

Taking the factory in Wuhan as an example, all the initial investment is paid by the local government, while SMIC is a commissioned operator, and can repurchase when the time is ripe. This naturally greatly reduces SMIC’s debt pressure, but it is can obtain production capacity.

In fact, in 07, the Wuhan factory once found a major customer for production capacity, which was Spansion Semiconductor, a joint venture between AMD and Fujitsu, and also obtained Spansion's 65nm technology authorization.

Unfortunately, Spansion was hit hard in the 08 financial crisis, and the agreement it signed was shelved after it also filed for bankruptcy protection.

Misjudged?

From Zhang Rujing's point of view, there is no misjudgment, a financial crisis that no one expected.

But it was also a misjudgment. The scale expansion brought about by several places magnified the risk. Storage crashes, Taiwan record lawsuits, financial crises...these superposition caused the stagnation of SMIC's technology.

However, both Fang Zhuo and Zhang Rujing knew that the so-called reviewing experiences and lessons was meaningless.

Not to mention the limitations of people in the environment at that time, corporate strategic decisions are often the success or failure of heroes. If you don’t survive, you can say that. If you survive, it will be another situation.

But the ice core still has reference value.

In the past, the ice core was to maintain the scale and focus on tackling key problems. Now the ice core can be expanded in scale and the technology can be transmitted.

The overall economic environment is the continuous growth and production capacity demand after the financial crisis, which is a better opportunity for scale expansion and industrial integration.

And, Fang Zhuo also has the money ability that Zhang Rujing can't match.

After dinner in the evening, they talked about Ice Core's industry integration and stress testing. Although this kind of topic was small talk, it made Judy's voice more cautious.

But when he heard Mr. Fang said that he wanted to compensate Hua Hong, he still couldn't help but speak out to dissuade him.

"Mr. Fang, you can't give a high price. Hua Hong's investment must not have been spent much, and the meaning is enough."

Fang Zhuo couldn't help laughing: "I don't want to be scolded by Hua Hong's people pointing at my spine. You really don't recognize people after you leave Shencheng."

"It's not that I don't recognize people. It's not that I can't let the company suffer. It's not that I don't give money. Give me more meaning. If Bingxin suffers a loss, we will feel sorry for this place. We let you do things, not butchers. Sheep." Judy shook her head.

Fang Zhuo: "..."

Judy asked again: "Who in Shencheng talked to Hua Hong?"

Fang Zhuo replied, "My brother."

Judy nodded reassuringly and said: "Then you won't be at a disadvantage, alas, industrial integration, forcing domestic production, Huahong will also benefit in the future, it is not easy to buy equipment from abroad, ice cores are unimpeded, this Who is it for? Isn’t it for everyone? Mr. Fang, you can’t be kind to a woman! Every penny must be spent wisely!"

Fang Zhuo had no choice but to be sincere: "You are really my old leader..."

The atmosphere of a congenial dinner is particularly cheerful.

Fang Zhuo and Zhang Rujing talked about the current situation and difficulties of domestic suppliers from Qindao to Beijing to Lin'an, but they didn't talk much about it with Judy, who is not in the industry.

"Visiting the province tomorrow, old leader, I've been waiting for you to come back."

"Mr. Fang..."

High mountains and flowing water, holding hands and tears.

Judy was a little regretful, Mr. Fang drank juice all the time, so this emotion couldn't get into his head.

Bingxin plans to invest in Xi'an, which is naturally welcomed by the province.

Shaanxi Province's slogan for semiconductors is "introduce an enterprise and grow an industry". It wants to drive and radiate through the strong magnetic field of leading enterprises, and gradually improve the integrated circuit industry chain in Xi'an.

Ice cores certainly fit the bill perfectly.

However, Mr. Fang also clarified the type. The one who plans to come to Xi'an is the storage plant of Bingxin Lin'an, and it is the industrial environment established by Qimonda in Xi'an.

This is a plan to take over the achievements of Qimonda, and use the greatest assistance and the least risk to complete the expansion of the ice core, and then carry out industrial integration and domestic promotion.

This is what Fang Zhuo communicated from Zhang Rujing.

Also, what the old leader said was right, steel coins should be spent wisely, and ice cores have not yet reached the point of squandering.

On July 7, Judy bid farewell to Fang Zhuo and his party on behalf of the province.

He also specially called the student representatives from Xidian.

"Mr. Fang, this is Zeng Weirong, the award-winning student of your scholarship. He performed very well in school. I hope he can shine in the ice core in the future." Judy gestured to the shy student for Mr. Fang.

"Zeng Weirong, um, hello, did you get the scholarship this year?" Fang Zhuo asked.

Zeng Weirong's voice was a little low: "No, I won the 'I Watch' award as a freshman."

Fang Zhuo said kindly: "It's okay, you can tell the full name of the scholarship, no one will dare to laugh at you, it's an honor to win the award."

Zeng Weirong is a bit of a fan, the name of this scholarship is a bit special, it has always been a topic of discussion among the students...

He said it under Mr. Fang's encouraging eyes: "I got the 'I see who doesn't like semiconductor scholarship'."

However, Zeng Weirong's face still turned red unconsciously, it feels so strange to pronounce this name.

Zhang Rujing laughed out loud.

Fang Zhuo also laughed.

Zeng Weirong vaguely remembered Mr. Fang just said that no one would dare to laugh...

"Let's go, Zeng Weirong, work hard, many of your seniors are in Bingxin." Fang Zhuo stopped laughing, and encouraged, "Bingxin has an interest-free loan for buying a house, a salary of 15 a year, and the project comes with dividends , the treatment is still acceptable.”

"Hey, hey, Mr. Fang, talk about something tall." Judy signaled that there was still a camera shooting.

Fang Zhuo looked at the camera, a little embarrassed.

Zhang Rujing answered from the side: "If relatives and friends in Luoyang ask each other, a piece of ice core is in the jade pot."

Fang Zhuo added: "Also in Xi'an."

Judy couldn't laugh or cry: "Okay, Mr. Fang, Mr. Zhang, on behalf of the province, I sincerely look forward to your next visit. I hope that Xi'an can provide you with the best industrial environment, and I hope that a beautiful ice flower will bloom here." The flower of the core."
