Global monopoly of technology

In the afternoon of the second day, Xiongxin Electronics held a media conference to officially disclose the cooperation with ASML to the outside world. It is expected that ASML will deliver 45nm process lithography equipment on time on March 19, 2010.

Once confirmed, this incident caused a huge sensation in the domestic semiconductor industry. This means that Xiongxin Electronics will be the first among mainland semiconductor manufacturers to introduce 45-nanometer-level process lithography equipment.

...

An industry person sitting in his office couldn’t help but sigh after seeing the news: “It’s no surprise that Xiongxin Electronics will be the leader in semiconductor chip manufacturing on the mainland. It is only a matter of time before Huaxin International is replaced. That is why Luo Sheng has this ability and strength to make the North American Semiconductor Industry Association SIA and ASML bow their heads."

People in the industry suddenly realized that Luo Sheng's influence in the semiconductor industry had reached a new level. In the field of IC design, Lens Semiconductor took the lead in the mainland. In chip foundry, Xiongxin Electronics also rose rapidly.

At the same time, Shengfeng Capital, a subsidiary of Luosheng, has also invested heavily in important links in the semiconductor field. For example, EDA Software invested in BGI and Jingchuang Technology.

People suddenly discovered that in the future, the domestic semiconductor industry may not be able to circumvent the world network created by Luo Sheng, not to mention the support of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Office.

If you want to survive in this industry, I am afraid that you can only have a future under the system built by Luo Sheng, otherwise the future is slim.

...

The following day, the US stock market opened, and the stock of Huaxin International, which went public in the US, plummeted 22%, and its market value had fallen to US$3.7 billion.

The head of Huaxin International actually met with ASML CEO Peter Weinnick three days ago, before the other party returned to Europe.

I met in person, but Huaxin International hoped to introduce 45nm chip technology lithography equipment as soon as possible but was rejected by the other party. Weinike’s answer is a simple rhetoric: insufficient supply, wait another two years.

Wait two more years for the day lilies to be completely cold.

It has to be said that ASML's lithography equipment is not worried about selling at all, and global semiconductor manufacturers are lining up waiting for the introduction of equipment.

Faced with the constant loss of talents and the decline of competitiveness, the entire company has fallen into an almost irreversible recession. Under such a big situation, Huaxin International could not stand it and had to find a new way out.

...

Technology complex building.

Luo Sheng, wearing a vest and long trousers, is in the basement, and the staff of Sugon Technology is busy here.

Well, it's coming to pay Xiaona the "support".

Luo Sheng's personal supercomputer will also undergo a major upgrade of software and hardware, and in-depth cooperation with Sugon Technology. The latest technology of this supercomputer manufacturing company will be the first to be applied to this supercomputer, which is also part of the agreement.

It will be upgraded almost once a year, and everything is arranged clearly.

The Blue Coast company will launch a "smart tablet" in the first half of this year. Xiaona is one of the core technical links. This major upgrade must be completed before the product is officially launched.

"Brother Luo, sister Weimu is here, waiting in the living room upstairs."

When Luo Sheng was working, he heard a sweet sheep sound that made people feel very comfortable, except for the personal housekeeping lady An Qingxue, no one else.

When she came here, she also attracted the attention of many engineers who were working, and she couldn't help but glanced more, and she was envious of Luo Sheng in her heart.

It is good to have money, and beautiful women around you are like clouds.

"Weimu is here? Why doesn't Xiaona report to me?" Luo Sheng was stunned for a while, but he quickly realized that Xiaona was in a dormant state at this moment, and she was doing comprehensive software and hardware optimization for her. Upgrading.

"understood."

After a while, Luo Sheng nodded, immediately put down the work at hand and instructed the staff present: "Remember to follow my procedure strictly."

"No problem, you can rest assured, Mr. Luo."

Anyway, Sugon Technology does not promote their own solutions anymore. There is no way. It is not as good as others. I am embarrassed to take it out. Now Sugon Technology is very fortunate that Luo Sheng has not entered the field of supercomputing, but with Sugon Technology. Cooperation, otherwise the pressure on this competitor is too great.

...

Two or three minutes later, Luo Sheng returned from the basement to the large living room of the mansion's living quarters. After looking around for a week, he was at the position of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his eyes fixed on an elegant posture.

Qin Weimu was standing there quietly admiring the lakeside scenery.

Luo Sheng retracted his gaze, took out a bottle of wine to the side of the wine cabinet, and said, "Drink a drink?"

Qin Weimu heard his voice and turned around, glanced at him and left the French window, sat down on the sofa next to him, and said: "The head of Huaxin International came to Shengfeng Capital to find me, but the other party actually What I want to see is someone who is talking about you."

There are no fewer than 7,000 or 8,000 people who want to meet Luo Sheng these days, whether they are bosses, entrepreneurs, etc., to see him, you have to make an appointment, and you have to see the time. It’s really not something you can see if you want to.

"How to say?"

Luo Sheng held a bottle of wine in one hand and two cups in the other, came to Qin Weimu and sat down.

"I want to buy."

Qin Weimu replied concisely, and took a sip while holding the cup.

Hearing that, Luo Sheng leaned on the sofa and embraced his arms. After thinking for a moment, he turned his head to look at Qin Weimu and smiled: "Let me guess, did you refuse?"

Qin Weimu: "Well, I refused. Now it doesn't make any sense to buy Huaxin International. Huaxin International has it, Xiongxin Electronics has it, and Huaxin International does not have it, Xiongxin Electronics also has it. The acquisition is a burden. "

Luo Sheng took a sip of wine and stared at the wine glass and said, "It's right to refuse. Huaxin International is now a tow bottle."

Qin Weimu took out a detailed list of audit materials from the bag she brought out and handed it to him: "This is the investment project and all expenditures of Shengfeng Capital for the whole year of last year."

Luo Sheng stopped: "You don't need to show it to me, just tell me how much capital you have introduced and how much money you spent."

Qin Weimu put the materials back again: "Last year, a total of 70 billion yuan was invested and 55 billion yuan was newly raised. In terms of capital operation, it bought a batch of Bluestar Technology stocks, as well as hedging in the international foreign exchange market. The company has earned about 20 billion yuan, and currently Shengfeng Capital’s book funds are lying more than 310 billion yuan."

Luo Sheng turned his head to look at her in shock: "What? After spending such a large sum of money together, it has changed more and more?"

Qin Weimu nodded and asked, "Isn't it OK?"

"Um... well, of course it's good."

Luo Sheng couldn't help covering his face, really speechless.

Qin Weimu is in charge of Shengfeng Capital, and even the expenditure of a bottle of mineral water can be found in the account details. This is her outstanding point.

"It seems that you are really a top trader. Putting you on Wall Street must be a hero in the investment industry."

Luo Sheng said with a smile.

Sometimes it’s hard to say that talent is something. Shengfeng Capital’s brilliant record was created on the premise that she didn’t put her heart into operation.

Thinking about it, she had already predicted events such as the European debt crisis and the bankruptcy of Greece, and Luo Sheng was not surprised at all.

To a certain extent, Shengfeng Capital is taking the line of Berkshire Hathaway, the stock god Barfitt, but it is not entirely true. The former is a pure money-making machine. Where there is profit, the money will go.

Shengfeng Capital is not the same, it only invests in high-tech industries, and it is a new high-tech industry, but because of too much money, Qin Weimu feels distressed at the devaluation, so he went to play hedging.

Qin Weimu laughed and said: "The foundation of the entire industry is just like this. The influx of large amounts of capital will only cause surplus and further chaos, which is counterproductive. I would rather take the international foreign exchange market to play games with those international speculators, not only to hedge and maintain value. You can make more money."

Hearing that, Luo Sheng glanced at him and then retracted his gaze. He took a sip and said indifferently, “In the international foreign exchange market, you’re so heartbroken. Either you don’t want to play and you want to play the biggest one. Take the family fund to hedge?"

Qin Weimu said with a smile: "Yes, last year it made a net profit of 15 billion yuan."

Luo Sheng shook his head helplessly: "I knew, don't lose my family."

He is not interested in stocks and foreign exchange, but he also knows a little bit. According to the estimation of the Bank for International Settlements, the daily trading volume is in the order of trillions of dollars. When the frequency of flash crashes in the market rises, within a few seconds , Exchange rate fluctuations will exceed the established transaction range.

Shengfeng Capital’s hundreds of billions of yuan, including offshore family funds, really can’t help but hit.

Qin Weimu didn't care, and seldom smiled wittyly: "What are you afraid of? Anyway, you, the world's richest man, can make money back even if I lose out?"

"hate."

Luo Sheng rolled his eyes, Qin Weimu couldn't stop Luo Luo laughing.

After a while, Luo Sheng put down the cup and got up and returned to the underground warehouse to handle Xiaona’s software and hardware upgrades and optimizations. He thought that Qin Weimu had something important to come here, but she did not leave since she came today. Stayed here for one night.

Obviously, things are incidental, and staying here is the main purpose.

...

Underground library.

The people of Sugon Technology had already left ten minutes ago, and Luo Sheng was left alone in the supercomputer room.

[The system is starting, Nov3.0 is being updated]

At the same time, Luo Sheng sat on the side of the machine with his back against a cabinet next to him, closed his eyes and meditated, and his mind was rapidly changing like a movie cutscene, which were all fragments of his last life. Looking for information on EUV extreme ultraviolet lithography in the vast memory torrent.

Luo Sheng did not focus on this field in his previous life, but when he participated in the "Skynet" project and became the chief core engineering expert, he involved hardware issues for AI development, and he also came into contact with lithography machines.

For him, the memory information of the fragments and fragments of some lithography machines known in the last life is extremely precious, which is the key to copying and surpassing ASML lithography technology.

While he was thinking, Xiaona went online again, and an exciting voice came into Luo Sheng's ears, which also made him stop thinking.

"Master, the system recovery is complete, Xiaona is diagnosing the core database."
