NOVEL NEXT Chapter 35
Chapter 35
Jiang Cheng has never liked island countries very much.
The servility is too strong.
It’s just a dog, or a mad dog.
However, I have to admit that the island country’s semiconductor industry is still the most developed in the world. This means that the United States is shameless and relies on the semiconductor agreement to combat the island’s industrial upgrading. Otherwise, the future is really hard to say.
Before the Spring Festival, Jiang Cheng handled the visa as quickly as possible.
He is going to a place, the United States.
He wants to meet someone-Liang Mengsong.
For ordinary people, it is naturally more difficult to apply for a visa. However, Jiang Cheng’s family foundation is still very solid, and naturally, it is not that troublesome.
And Liang Mengsong is the real purpose of Jiang Cheng’s trip.
Liang Mengsong studied under Hu Zhengming, a professor at Berkeley University in the United States. This Hu Zhengming later also served as the “Technical Chief Executive Officer” of TSMC.
And this person, Jiang Cheng must win his hands anyway.
University of Berkeley
Jiang Cheng is collecting current information about Liang Mengsong. This man is definitely a technical wizard. He has participated in the invention of as many as 181 semiconductor patented technologies in the United States, and all of them are the most advanced and important key technologies.
In addition, as many as 350 technical papers have been published in Taiwan and the United States.
Such people have always been targeted.
Historically, Liang Mengsong returned from the United States and joined TSMC as the senior R&D director. His technical expertise has been fully utilized in TSMC. He alone is the inventor of TSMC’s 500 patents, far surpassing other technical directors.
He has also participated in every generation of TSMC’s chip manufacturing process from beginning to end.
One of the most impressive is the battle between TSMC and IBM, the US semiconductor giant at the time.
In 2000, the world’s semiconductor process technology reached 130 nanometers. 130 nanometers can be described as a severe technological watershed, because in the past all aluminum processes were used, but when aluminum processes continue to be used above 130 nanometers, various problems will arise.
The whole world is trying to solve this problem, but only the team led by Liang Mengsong found a breakthrough first and changed the aluminum process to a “copper process.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)
After three years of arduous research and development, only Liang Mengsong successfully broke through the 130-nanometer copper process patent, allowing TSMC to defeat the American giant IBM, and Liang Mengsong became famous.
Liang Mengsong has also become TSMC’s most important technical talent.
Later, Liang Mengsong went to SMIC.
In the early stage of SMIC, SMIC’s 14-nanometer trial production yield was only 3%
A yield of 3% means that 100 of them were produced and 97 of them were broken, which is far below the mass production standard.
But after Liang Mengsong took over the core for 298 days, the yield rate of SMIC’s 14nm trial production increased from 3% to 95%.
Later, Liang Mengsong said that he was leaving SMIC. On the spot, SMIC directly lost tens of billions of market value.
As a result, SMIC increased Liang Mengsong’s annual salary from 340,000 US dollars to 1.53 million US dollars. The annual salary of US,000 in the financial report includes a set of 22.5 million yuan worth of housing given to Liang Mengsong by the company.
This left Liang Mengsong.
This guy, Jiang Cheng has already been eyeing it.
“The U.S. is really a desirable place!”
In a cafe at Berkeley University, Jiang Cheng put down the coffee in his hand, looked up at Liang Mengsong in front of him, smiled and said, “So, I’m a step late. Is Mr. Liang planning to return to Taiwan?”
Liang Mengsong was also looking at the young man in front of him. He really did not expect that the person who had been e-mailing with him before was actually a teenager of about sixteen years old.
Young genius.
The way Jiang Cheng wants to get close to Liang Mengsong is also very simple, that is, technical communication.
During this period of time, Jiang Cheng did not miss the lessons and read the materials every day. In addition, plus some of his own views on the future, Liang Mengsong was surprised by Jiang Cheng.
Naturally, there is also today’s meeting.
However, what Liang Mengsong didn’t expect was that Jiang Cheng, a young fellow, was a bit scary. He was sixteen years old. Liang Mengsong even felt that the other party’s age should be about the same as him, and he even wondered if someone he knew was playing pranks with him.
“Mr. Jiang, really young!” Liang Mengsong coughed, and then slowly said: “Mr. Jiang, do you want me to go to China?”
Jiang Cheng nodded: “Yes! We are preparing to set up a company in the semiconductor industry in Northeast China, just like TSMC, specializing in contract processing. Although I have some talents in this area, but after all, it is difficult to support alone, so I thought of it. Mr. Liang, as long as Mr. Liang is willing to return to China with me, then everything is easy to say!”
Liang Mengsong picked up the coffee, tasted it slowly, and then slowly said, “But, domestic equipment!”
“Let’s just say it!” Jiang Cheng spread his hands: “Starting from scratch, from scratch!”
Liang Mengsong was almost choked, and then coughed fiercely. Isn’t this guy too honest?
For a long time, Liang Mengsong was relieved of his coffee, watching this Jiang Cheng slowly said: “Mr. Jiang, why do you think that I will promise you?”
“Mr. Liang, it must be a world where the electronics industry is extremely developed. Chips, computers, mobile phones, automobiles, and all kinds of industries need the electronics industry. At present, the domestic foundation is very weak and very backward! Jiang Cheng slowly said, “However, there is no denying that this is a huge market in the future. After all, there are still 1.2 billion people!”
“This is the potential and the location. Secondly, it is the time. At present, the semiconductor industry of the island country has been restricted by the United States. They signed a semiconductor agreement. Now, the semiconductor industry of the island country is bound to suffer a blow, so they I don’t think I’m going to bite too much of the equipment. I don’t think there are many problems with the acquisition. This is the time!”
“As for people and harmony, China needs to increase competition in the semiconductor industry, and I need talents. I also believe that for Mr. Liang, working for TSMC is definitely not as good as being the leader. Let’s negotiate an agreement and I will give Mr. Liang 100%. The twenty shares, Mr. Liang, can make any request, as long as I can do it, I will definitely go all out!”
Liang Mengsong held the coffee cup, but fell into contemplation. After a long time, he slowly said: “There is nothing to say, Mr. Jiang, I think this is good. First of all, I need a batch of equipment. If it is really like Mr. Jiang Said that as long as Mr. Jiang can get this batch of equipment, I will consider going to China to see it!”
“Of course, this is just a look. I still have to think about it. Mr. Jiang does not have to be angry. The equipment is only the first step. If you really want to develop the semiconductor industry, this batch of equipment must be available anyway. Yes. It doesn’t matter if I go or not. Yes. I don’t want Mr. Jiang to just use one mouth to convince me. What I want to see is sincerity, how?”
Liang Mengsong put down the teacup.
“Just a gentleman!” Jiang Cheng stretched out his palm towards Liang Mengsong.
“It’s hard to chase a horse!” Liang Mengsong laughed, and then grasped Jiang Cheng’s hand together. .
