It took Mu Yang a number of days to output the drawings of EBL lithography machines, etching machines, ion implanters, coating machines and different tools for chip manufacturing.
The system blueprint is already in Mu Yang’s thoughts. He solely must think about that it may be shortly displayed within the software program by utilizing the human-brain converter. It takes a number of days, which isn’t quick. 4 weeks.
On the identical time, an inventory of supplies is listed, and the corporate’s buying division is accountable for buying, in order to seek out out which components could be purchased as quickly as attainable, and in the event that they can’t be purchased, instantly begin impartial analysis and improvement.
For instance, Holland ASML, because the world’s largest lithography machine producer, occupies 80% of the world’s market share.
A high-end lithography machine has as many as 100,000 inner components, however the components aren’t from ASML alone, however from a variety of high-tech producers.
Among the many 100,000 components, Holland and Eagle Nation accounted for about 32%, Fairly Nation accounted for 27%, De Nation accounted for 14%, and Island Nation accounted for 27%. There are greater than 5,000 suppliers in whole. .
The manufacturing problem of the lithography machine is especially the alignment system and the ultraviolet mild supply system.
The EBL lithography machine Muyang selected is a comparatively easy one, and the components aren’t as difficult because the EUV lithography machine, however the precision of the components can also be required to be extraordinarily strict.
Many components of the lithography machine are custom-made, and the order amount is small, and the producer isn’t keen to simply accept the order, however a very powerful factor is that they don’t promote to Huaguo enterprises.
An organization like ASML has an annual cargo of about 15 items up to now two years. That’s to say, a chip manufacturing firm like Moss Semiconductors is not going to have greater than 100 lithography machines.
Moss Semiconductors bought lithography machines from ASML, which was really restricted by the attractive nation, akin to being restricted from promoting chips to Warwick after a number of years. In case you are not obedient, then TSMC won’t ever be capable of purchase lithography machines sooner or later, and will probably be troublesome to promote chips to the attractive nation.
Reply TSMC desires to generate profits, however there are some issues which can be very helpless. Now, Mu Yang simply desires to interrupt the foundations of the attractive nation. He decides the foundations for future chips!
If the Xinghai Group dumps high-end chips at low costs for 2 years, the worldwide chip manufacturing business will all be over.
However if you wish to dump it, it will probably’t be realized within the stunning nation;
For Mu Yang, it would not matter if he earns much less cash, he’s joyful if it will probably make ASML and different corporations, in addition to these developed international locations, uncomfortable.
To not point out avenging Warwick’s revenge, he simply cannot perceive the faces of those international locations, and he can step on as many instances as he can.
If Muyang desires to occupy a lot of the world high-end chip market, primarily based on the technical scenario and manufacturing effectivity of the EBL01 lithography machine, 50 to 100 lithography machines can be wanted within the subsequent 5 years.
Subsequently, Mu Yang ordered components for 50 items, in order to not be unavailable sooner or later.
Xinghai Group has a bonus that Reply Semiconductor and ASML corporations do not need, that’s, Xinghai Group has the world’s prime processing capabilities, so long as it may be manufactured with steel and 3D additive tools, will probably be instantly manufactured with this tools and instantly clear up the issue. , assembly a lot of the components necessities.
For instance, the EBL lithography machine additionally requires an alignment system. Usually talking, there are two most important issues within the alignment system, exact mechanical know-how and alignment microscope system.
This ought to be straightforward to know. In any case, the road width of the electron beam is so small, and it’s required to attract it, which should require high-precision mechanical tools.
The Xinghai Group has simply solved the important thing know-how of the highest CNC machine instruments, and the issue of reproducing the tools for the alignment system is far decrease.
Subsequently, if Xinghai Group doesn’t lay a stable basis, even when it has top-notch lithography machine know-how, it won’t be able to provide it if it can not purchase components.
The Xinghai Group’s chip manufacturing undertaking staff has been established for a number of months, with about 100 individuals. They’re all graduates who joined the corporate up to now three years, primarily grasp’s and doctoral college students.
Prior to now few months, the progress of the undertaking has been extraordinarily gradual. The primary process is to be taught the know-how of chip manufacturing. To be able to practice this group of individuals, the corporate has invested lots of manpower and materials assets, together with lots of of tens of millions of {dollars} within the buy of precision tools.
Now that the undertaking is formally launched, proceed to broaden the undertaking staff.
In line with the composition of chip manufacturing tools, Muyang is split into a number of
Giant teams, after which subdivide teams in response to every mannequin of kit.
For instance, the lithography machine, in response to the general construction, is split into greater than a dozen methods such because the lighting system, the masks desk system, the automated alignment system, the leveling and focusing measurement system, and the body shock absorption system. Every system consists of 5 to 30 R & D personnel.
If there are inadequate personnel, then switch from different components of the corporate.
The R&D undertaking of lithography machine alone requires two to 3 hundred R&D personnel.
To be able to get this chip manufacturing completed, the one billion yuan invested within the early stage is sort of spent. Now that it’s formally launched, it’s time to actually spend cash. The second batch goes to take a position 10 billion yuan.
Solely the Xinghai Group is so “rich and wealthy” and casually spends tens of billions in money.
With out investing tens of billions earlier than and after, Mu Yang felt that it was troublesome to provide chip samples, even when he had the related know-how himself.
On the morning of January 12, Muyang held a gathering of the chip manufacturing undertaking staff and required all members of the undertaking staff to take part.
Many individuals felt somewhat unusual. When the undertaking staff was established, the chairman known as them for a gathering, they usually by no means held a gathering after that. Now they not often come to the chip manufacturing laboratory for inspections. They’re allowed to review and practice freely with out asking questions. Evidently they aren’t very optimistic in regards to the success of this undertaking, so that they maintain their breath and attempt to show it to the chairman, however the chip manufacturing know-how is basically too troublesome.
They knew that the corporate was growing wafers, however they could not discover any details about the wafers, as if all the knowledge was blocked.
Ten minutes earlier than ten o’clock, everybody entered the assembly room with doubts and sat ready for the chairman to reach.
When it was nearly ten o’clock, Mu Yang walked into the convention room, glanced on the individuals within the convention room, and stated: “In additional than ten days, the corporate can be on vacation, and lots of departments have begun to calm down.
Nonetheless, your undertaking staff goes to be busy, and there are lots of issues to do earlier than the vacation. If the success of chip manufacturing is someday later, the larger the variables.
Now, the staff leaders first report on the work of the undertaking staff since its institution. “
After Mu Yang completed talking, the staff leaders started to report their work.
Whereas Mu Yang listened to the work studies of the staff leaders, he noticed the loyalty of the staff within the convention room.
To be able to forestall spies from coming into the core undertaking staff, he needed to conduct a loyalty take a look at on each member. This cash needed to be spent, and it value practically 100 million yuan directly. He nonetheless felt very sorry for the system cash.
After the studies of the staff leaders, Mu Yang additionally examined the loyalty of all of the employees, all of them had been inexperienced above their heads, and all of them had been above 80.
These graduates are extraordinarily loyal to Mu Yang. It can be stated that Mu Yang is their idol.
“It is regular for R&D tasks to fail, a very powerful factor is whether or not you might have made progress and whether or not you’ll make the identical errors once more.
Holding this assembly at the moment represents the official launch of the undertaking staff. After the assembly, I’ll add the related data to the technical system. Everybody can view the technical data and work duties in response to their duties and permissions. You need to familiarize your self with the knowledge as quickly as attainable. Many components should be personalized, and you want to be accountable personally, and talk with the producer in particular person with the buying division. If essential, you want to go to the producer to examine the precise scenario in particular person.
If the acquisition isn’t accessible, report it as quickly as attainable, then we are able to solely develop independently.
On this undertaking, I’ll work with you till the chip pattern is manufactured. ” Mu Yang concluded.
As quickly as he completed talking, all of the R&D personnel within the convention room had been stunned that the chairman was lastly going to guide their undertaking.
“I as soon as stated that the Xinghai Group desires to develop its personal chips. It’s not a joke. Though this undertaking has solely been established for a number of months, actually, we’ve been getting ready for 2 years.
Prior to now few months, you must also perceive that the EUV lithography machine, the important thing tools for chip manufacturing, and different associated tools, if we comply with their path, we won’t be able to bypass their technical patent safety scope.
Subsequently, the EBL electron beam lithography machine is our means. The data I despatched to you is the results of our firm inside two years, and the theoretical technical stage can attain the world’s first.
Nonetheless, principle is principle and apply is required.
Now, you want to take a look at
Show it, make it out, and refine it. “Mu Yang stated this to elucidate the supply of the knowledge, and it’ll not be revealed in a short while.
EBL electron beam lithography machine?
I simply heard about it. Might or not it’s that one other secret staff of the chairman has been developed?
After listening to Mu Yang’s phrases, these workers had been very stunned. They actually did not anticipate that the corporate nonetheless has a secret scientific analysis staff, which has superior the chip analysis and improvement to the purpose the place it has related technical data.
The technical supervisor could not assist exclaiming and discussing together with his colleagues, and he could not assist elevating his hand to ask: “Chairman, do we actually need to develop an EBL electron beam lithography machine?”
“Sure, the blueprints and craftsmanship are out, and you want to confirm them.” Mu Yang nodded frivolously.
After getting the chairman’s affirmation, and the blueprint has come out, these scientific researchers had been very joyful, which confirmed that the chairman was already very assured.
This information additionally gave these helpless researchers a shot within the arm.
There may be hope!
“As soon as once more, preserve confidential. Besides to your division personnel, it’s forbidden to speak in regards to the undertaking content material outdoors the undertaking staff, together with your loved ones members, not to mention reveal that we’re conquering chip manufacturing know-how.” Mu Yang knocked down the desk and ordered severely, ” I hope you perceive the significance of this program and the dire scenario we’re in.
I additionally hope that you will need to do not forget that know-how has nationwide boundaries. Developed international locations need us to go bankrupt. As soon as they discover that we’ve developed superior chips, they may positively impose numerous restrictions on us, and even destroy us by state means.
You aren’t the perimeter figures of a small firm, however the core personnel of a prime know-how firm. Every little thing you do can lead the event of the world.
I hope which you can manufacture the world’s prime home chips, and provides foreigners a convincing slap within the face along with your excellent outcomes.
Nonetheless, I additionally need to remind you that earlier than you obtain outcomes, please let go of your satisfaction and previous achievements, and work laborious with a low profile. “
Mu Yang’s previous couple of phrases made many workers excited, however on the identical time, he additionally confronted as much as his work mentality.
Subsequent, Mu Yang opened the PPT, defined the overall scenario and framework know-how of EBL, and assigned duties on the identical time.
Mu Yang doesn’t speak an excessive amount of in conferences, and he doesn’t like to debate issues within the assembly. Discussing issues within the convention room simply wastes the time of different members who don’t have anything to do with the issue, and discussing issues can’t be solved in a short time of.
After the assembly, Mu Yang had lots of issues to do earlier than the yr.
On January 15, 2014, Mu Yang went to BJ to take part within the 2013 Nationwide Science and Expertise Awards Convention.
Xinghai Group has been nominated for a variety of gadgets, amongst which a know-how of vehicle lithium battery NCMS01 received the primary prize of the Nationwide Expertise Invention Award, and Mu Yang participated in receiving the award because the authorized consultant of the corporate.
It may be stated that aside from the 2 winners of the best science and know-how award and one of many first prizes of pure science, the primary prize of the Nationwide Technological Invention Award is simply too troublesome to win. This time there have been ten nominations, however solely two had been chosen in the long run. Xinghai Group nonetheless Like final yr, it was obtained by counting on sturdy energy.
It was the second time for him to step into the Nice Corridor, so he was much less excited and extra calm.
After the awards had been introduced, Mu Yang hurried again to Metropolis H. It was approaching the tip of the yr and there was lots of work.
A couple of days in the past, the corporate’s monetary assertion got here out, Zhou Chen checked it and submitted it to Mu Yang, however Mu Yang had no time to learn it.
After Mu Yang got here again from the BJ assembly, he sat within the workplace once more, and solely had time to learn the harvest of final yr.
Xinghai Equipment Processing Co., Ltd., with an authentic enterprise income of 1.15 billion yuan, is accountable for the machining duties of the complete group firm;
Nonetheless, after including the steel 3D additive processing enterprise, the enterprise quantity has elevated considerably. At current, the corporate has a complete of fifty steel 3D additive tools in full load operation. In a number of months, the income has reached 1.2 billion yuan.
The steel 3D additive processing enterprise is an rising business. Right this moment, Xinghai Group has turn into the world’s largest steel 3D additive manufacturing facility. With phrase of mouth fermenting, the month-to-month enterprise quantity has skyrocketed. It’s anticipated that in 2014, the output worth will attain 12
billion.
