Rebirth of Northland Technology

Chapter 281 IQ Tax

"By the way, let's talk about it. Have the drawings and quotations for the new model come out?"

Some time ago, Cheng Yongxing faxed a design sketch of a production model MOCVD to Keyi.The revised design this time, one is based on the experience of the past two months, some improvements have been made.It also prepares for continuous production in the future.

Of course, large-scale continuous production in later generations will definitely be computer controlled.There is no such condition yet, but at least the delivery and entry should be possible without stopping the machine.

"The drawings have not yet been fully released. The changes this time are relatively large, but the cost has been calculated. However, Xiaocheng, because of your changes, the cost has increased a lot. This is not our intention to increase the price."

Section Chief Wang gave a vaccination before giving the final offer.Due to the increase of feeding and discharging devices, the volume of the entire equipment is almost a circle larger.The cost of various materials has all increased.

"Okay, you can make an offer. If it is reasonable, I can accept it naturally. If it is unreasonable, I just don't buy it."

GaNMOCVD is the core equipment in the LED industry chain. In later generations, the price of a production equipment and imported equipment is about 20 million.The price of domestic equipment should be more than 5 million yuan.

Today's equipment is far from comparable with its counterparts after the 1930s.No matter it is volume, output, degree of automation, etc., they cannot be compared.In later generations, the equipment used in this production line was prepared for large-scale production, and a large number of epitaxial wafers could be processed simultaneously with one feed.Each one is the size of a small house.

And the current device is about the size of an ATM machine.This time the model is mainly just to solve the problem of non-stop feeding and discharging, and mass production is still out of the question.

But even so, considering the current cost and the inflation effect that has formed in 30 years, hundreds of thousands are still needed.

"After our cost calculation, the cost of this piece is at least about 180,000. We plan to add an additional profit of about 100,000 for each unit. The total price is 280,000. What do you think?"

Section Chief Wang took out a list and showed it to the young people.Prove that I did not increase the fare randomly.

"What if I buy 3 units at once? What is the price?"

"Santai? Are you here for real?"

"of course."

"That price is 250,000 units." The old factory director patted the table next to him.With such a big order, Ke Yi almost felt relieved.

"80,000, 80,000 one, how about?"

Cheng Yongxing gave his own psychological price.

"Xiaocheng, are you kidding me! 80,000? That's too little, right"

Both of them were stunned.Most of them were cut when they met. This kind of cutting method has not appeared in the equipment quotation.80,000 units, I guess I can't even buy the materials.

"That's a lot, it's 80,000, but the unit is US$80,000."

After breathing heavily, Cheng Yongxing gave an unexpected answer.

"$80,000? Xiaocheng, are you kidding?"

Almost the same question was asked again intact.

"I said, old director, you are not old yet. You will repeat my words twice now."

"US$? 80,000 US dollars? Xiaocheng, are you serious?"

Liu Minxue ignored the young man's teasing, so he still had to confirm it again.After he got the confirmation from the young man, he almost did not commit high blood pressure.

Black market price, the dollar is now one to ten!Eighty thousand U.S. dollars, synthetic renminbi is 800,000 one!Maybe the factory takes public accounts and cannot get the exchange rate of the black market, but it can also go to 400,000 units at the official price.

What's more, these foreign exchanges can be exchanged directly without cash, but you can exchange the scarce supplies with brother manufacturers!Want to cash out, is it not easy?

—————————

"Xiaocheng, are you kidding me! Are you willing to spend US dollars on our equipment?"

While happy, calm down, just don't believe it.If you have dollars, who wouldn't keep them!Besides, if you really buy equipment, wouldn't it be exchanged for RMB and then bought?Who is going to take advantage of this?

"To be honest, this is not our order, this is Philip's order!"

These days, with the signing of the agreement with Yueya, some negotiating opponents began to slowly change their attitudes.The fastest man in it is Philip.

But Philip did not directly sign the property rights agreement with Optoelectronics. They carried out a sneak attack and prepared to directly form a joint venture with the University of Technology!

However, this matter has not finally settled.Some people in the school have objections to this joint venture plan.Some leaders suggested that the joint venture should be turned into a tripartite joint venture to bring in optoelectronic research.However, this plan has not yet been approved by the foreign party because it will dilute the foreign party's equity ratio.

Regardless of the final result, Philip's entry into blue LEDs and the joint venture are basically settled.But Philip needs equipment to produce it!Especially MOCVD, which is completely standard configuration of blue LED production line.

At present, as long as players want to play with blue LED, in addition to the authorization fee, there is also an IQ tax and so on.

"Really? Foreigners want to buy this? No wonder."

Foreign adults are always rich.Director Liu began to meditate and used his brains.

"Oh my goodness, my old factory manager, I have convinced you! This kind of equipment, if you ask foreigners directly, they will not buy you, because you have no authorization! Now, this equipment can be sold worldwide ,there's only us!"

Yueya also has the authorization to produce the new MOCVD, but they can only produce and sell themselves.Therefore, the MOCVD production license fee can also be regarded as a cash cow at this stage of photoelectricity.

In later generations, with the continuous in-depth research on the blue LED process technology, in addition to the double blowing method, each MOCVD manufacturer has developed a new patented technology to bypass the double blowing method.

Among them there are names and names: high-speed vertical flow system, closed rotating disk epitaxial system, radial transverse flow system, horizontal three-way flow system.

These systems and structures are famous because they survived!

MOCVD manufacturers, after decades of survival of the fittest, the technology that finally survived is among the best in terms of cost, productivity, and quality.

Cheng Yongxing's way of rotating the workpiece is borrowed from one of them.

With some spare money in optoelectronic research, the work of registering these structures as patents can be carried out.

The double blowing method itself may not be suitable for mass production.None of the later mature products adopted this method.Perhaps one day in the future, optoelectronic research will need to make a choice among these technologies and choose one as the future upgrade direction.

Of course, other types of structural designs must have been born in the course of history, but these structures have not survived to the end and are completely untestable.

In the short term, the position of optoelectronic research in GaNMOCVD is monopolistic.Its status is the same as that of later generations of ASML in the lithography machine!

Would you like to buy or not, just this one.

But this also illustrates the high profitability of high-tech products.In the case of cutting the price in half, the manufacturer still has more than half of the profit.

Of course, in a normal enterprise, these so-called gross profits will be eaten up by R&D and operating costs.However, due to the intervention of rebirths, the proportion of product R&D costs in this part has been greatly reduced.

"Moreover, this order is not without conditions."

"What conditions?"

It's pretty much the same. There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, even if there is, there is not such a large portion.Who can believe this!
