The Richest Man Yang Fei - Chapter 2287
Chapter 2285 PHS and lithography machine
Jiang Wanxia and Hu Zhibiao sat down for a while, and both got up and left.
Yang Fei sent them to the door to say goodbye to them.
“Boss, please stay, we are gone.” Hu Zhibiao laughed.
Yang Fei watched them get into the car, and then turned back.
This trip to the deep city is not long.
He originally came here for the yield rate of the mobile phone, so he inspected the shopping mall and other branches by the way.
Regarding mobile phone production, before Hu Zhibiao left, he and Yang Fei mentioned the production and sales of PHS.
PHS is indeed slowly gaining popularity now!
No one has thought that this communication device, which is not a mobile phone, has developed so rapidly in China that the user population has rapidly risen to several million.
Actually, Yang Fei also knows that this year is the best year if you want to be a little smart.
The next five years can be said to be the years in which PHS develops the largest and has the largest market share.
It is foreseeable that within five years, the number of PHS users will increase tenfold!
However, PHS was originally a special product. It was a product of a special period. It was the helpless move of China Telecom and Netcom when they did not have a mobile license. However, before the introduction of 3G, it also seized a large number of users for operators.
Moreover, the shortcomings of PHS are also obvious.
One is that there are few functions.
PHS has fewer auxiliary functions. Early short messages can only be sent between PHSs. Many fashionable new functions, such as Internet browsing and mobile games, are only perfected in the later stage.
The second is poor coverage.
Poor network coverage, generally limited to urban areas and poor signal; there are few base stations, and calls are not smooth in some parts of the city, and calls cannot be made even if there is a power outage.
The third is poor performance.
The vehicle speed exceeds 40 kilometers, and the call is intermittent. Although Japan is constantly improving its technology, it is basically no longer developing in the country.
Four is not roaming.
PHS cannot roam the country like a mobile phone, so it can only do “fixed-line supplements and extensions”, and there is always a gap with mobile phones in terms of functions.
One more thing, Beijing and Shanghai, the two largest cities, have not yet opened the access of PHS.
A product that is known to be very short-lived, Yang Fei is considering whether to enter the market?
It’s okay to take a bite and leave. If you fight for a long time, you definitely won’t have to fight.
Easy to enter the market, but difficult to get out of the market!
Because the Aido company that Yang Fei wants to run is preparing for long-term development.
Of course, Hu Zhibiao mentioned that a new brand can be built to develop PHS.
Yang Fei is not commenting on this.
Because he doesn’t know, can PHS take a trip in the muddy water?
As far as he knows, Huawei, the first brother in the mobile phone industry in the future, has also worked as a PHS for seven years, but he fell into the limelight in it, so that Mr. Ren was discolored when talking about mobile phones, and later did not dare to involve mobile phones casually. In the field of production, I have also released a ruthless statement: Who dares to mention the production of mobile phones to me, I will fire anyone!
Fortunately, there is no shortage of capable people and strangers around Mr. Ren. There are always people with unique vision and good eloquence. In the end, he persuaded Mr. Ren to invest 1 billion to develop mobile phones, and only then did he have the world-renowned Huawei mobile phone.
Yang Fei has experienced the mobile phone war of later generations, so he has some understanding of the various bumps on the road of mobile phone development.
Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way.
Although PHS is fat, Yang Fei is not jealous.
It is impossible for one person to eat all the business.
You really want to take all the benefits to the full, and you may cause misfortune again.
Therefore, Yang Fei is not optimistic about entering the field of PHS.
As long as the company can complete the mobile phone product, it is the greatest success.
Making money is a long-term thing, don’t just focus on the immediate benefits.
PHS is also quick to thrive and lose quickly!
If you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the market.
Although Yang Fei is a person here, he does not have the self-confidence. He can control the whole process completely and accurately, and it is impossible to guarantee that a company will only make a profit and not lose money.
With this time and energy, Yang Fei would rather devote himself to the mobile phone industry.
However, although the cake of the mobile phone is very big, there are many and deep pits in it.
As we all know, the core product of a mobile phone is the chip.
The R&D and manufacturing of chips, which integrate the first-class technologies of today’s various disciplines, cannot be produced by any family or company.
The production of a chip requires 2,000 to 5,000 strictest processes, and the most important process needs to be realized by a photolithography machine.
It can be said that lithography is the link between manufacturing and design.
Many of the processes in the production of mobile phone chips are carried out in independent factories, and the equipment used also needs to be manufactured by specialized equipment factories; the materials used include hundreds of special gases, liquids, and targets, which require specialized chemical industries.
In addition, the production of integrated circuits is carried out in ultra-clean rooms, so exhaust and air purification systems are also required.
There is a saying that integrated circuits are high-tech higher than aerospace.
The reliability of aerospace is estimated to be 4 9s and 5 9s. How many 9s represent the ratio of the normal use time of the system to the total time during the one-year use of the software system. The purity of the silicon wafer material is more than six nines.
The global chip is almost monopolized by the US, Japan and Europe.
According to the report of the Foresight Research Institute, global chips are still dominated by American, Japanese, and European enterprise products, and the high-end market is almost monopolized by these three main regions.
In the field of high-end chips, since domestic manufacturers have not yet formed the scale effect and cluster effect, their production is still based on the “foundry” model.
Moreover, even if domestic manufacturers can independently develop chips, they cannot produce them.
Lithography machine, the English name is MaskAligner, also known as: mask alignment exposure machine, exposure system, lithography system, etc., is the core equipment for manufacturing chips.
It uses a technology similar to photo-printing to print the fine patterns on the mask onto the silicon wafer through light exposure.
Exposure machine is the core equipment for the production of large-scale integrated circuits. Manufacturing and maintenance require a high degree of optical and electronic industry foundation, and only a few manufacturers in the world master it. Therefore, the exposure machine is expensive, usually between 30 million and 500 million U.S. dollars The high-end projection lithography machine can be divided into two types: step projection and scanning projection lithography machine, the resolution is usually 7 nanometers to Within a few micrometers, the high-end lithography machine is known as the world’s most precise instrument, and there are already 120 million U.S. dollar lithography machines in the world.
The high-end lithography machine can be called the flower of the modern optical industry. Its manufacturing is so difficult that only a few companies in the world can manufacture it.
Foreign brands are mainly Asmer of the Netherlands, which is ASML. Their lenses are from Germany and Nikon. Intel has bought high-end lithography machines from Nikon, and the three major brands of Canon.
The only thing that can laugh at the end is the ASML of the Netherlands.
Domestic mobile phone manufacturers, at best, are doing assembly work.
Of course, assembly work is also promising, and there is also considerable technical activity. Once done, the company can still be bigger and stronger.
However, the chip is in the hands of others. Once someone cuts off the supply, you will not be able to use the core and you will not be able to make a mobile phone. The higher you charge, the worse you will fall.
What Yang Fei wants to do is not a short-lived PHS, but a lithography machine for the future!
As for how to do it, Yang Fei is already in the layout!
