MTL - Rebirth 2002: Nano Life-v4 Chapter 30 meeting with the prime minister
The night before the National Day, Xia Meng Electronics was a gift to the motherland in advance, and it was a very pleasant gift.
China has developed to the present, and the annual consumption of chips is huge, and more than 90% of them rely on imports. Although China is the world's largest consumer of semiconductors, the self-sufficiency rate of domestic chips is still less than 10%.
According to statistics from professional research institutions, in 2007, China's semiconductor products (including all products involved in the chip, equipment, materials, eda tools and other industries) spent more than 100 billion US dollars, and the total amount of crude oil imports was only 80 billion US dollars.
Such a huge market, coupled with the fact that China's high-tech has been choked by the United States, as the physical properties of silicon materials may reach the limit in the near future, the scientific research breakthrough of Xia Meng's carbon-based chips has indeed provided the Chinese chip industry. The possibility of changing lanes to overtake.
According to the information released by Xia Meng, graphene transistors are nearly 100 times faster than silicon-based transistors of the same size, but consume only one-tenth of the power consumption. The 10-micron printing process currently announced by Xia Meng, the "Xingxing No. 1" with a thousand transistors, works at a speed similar to Intel's most advanced silicon-based commercial devices, but consumes only 5 of the other's important performance. Indicators are also dominant.
Xia Meng is currently preparing to develop a variety of products around graphene chips.
For example, medical sensors made of graphene materials are used to detect biochemical indicators such as blood pressure, heartbeat and blood sugar. Because the graphene material is very compatible with the human body and has good flexibility, the sensor can fit the skin perfectly, and people cannot feel its existence.
And graphene chips can not only show better performance, but more excitingly, it may also do things that silicon-based chips cannot.
Due to the low energy consumption, the battery life of the mobile phone will be greatly improved. At the same time, after installing this high-efficiency chip, the camera performance of the mobile phone will also be greatly enhanced.
Xia Meng is also studying the use of graphene materials to build infrared surveillance cameras in automotive assisted driving systems. Driving safely at night is one of the difficulties that assisted driving must overcome. Because carbon materials have excellent near-infrared sensitivity, they can achieve extremely high resolution when used in night vision equipment, and can also image non-heating objects and objects in dense fog, far better than the currently commonly used infrared thermal imagers. .
At the same time, small-scale integrated circuits made of graphene transistors also show better performance than silicon, and the speed and power consumption of transistors directly affect the speed and power consumption of chips.
Obviously, the 5288 yuan g fell out of favor this night, and almost all the media paid attention to carbon-based chips.
At the end of the press conference, Chen Yizhe and Xia Yi returned to their house in the capital. Last year, a dilapidated courtyard house that cost more than 30 million yuan to buy, after being renovated, although the appearance is simple and ancient, the inside is still full of high-tech.
Chen Yizhe, who had just coaxed the two children into bed, suddenly received a call.
I saw that Chen Yizhe immediately changed into a suit and put it on, and then used nanoworms to smash his beard and hair neatly.
"Going out now?" Xia Yi looked at the time, it was almost twelve o'clock.
"Well, when I met the Prime Minister, someone would pick me up a few minutes later." Chen Yizhe said a little excitedly. Although he had met with the Prime Minister several times, this time it was the Prime Minister who personally called and invited him to meet in private.
"Ah!" Xia Yi also exclaimed in surprise.
"Shh!" Chen Yizhe gestured for Xia Yi to keep quiet, after all, the two children had just fallen asleep.
"But it's the first time I'm so excited to see you! People who don't know, think what you're going to do." Xia Yi lowered her voice and joked.
Chen Yizhe kissed Xia Yi and said with a smile, "This is the first time? When am I not more excited about you than this?"
"Nonsense again." Xia Yi gave Chen Yizhe a blank look.
"However, I'll talk to the Prime Minister later, don't talk casually." Xia Yi urged.
Chen Yizhe nodded, and when he was talking, he heard Tianqi reminding that someone was ringing the doorbell. Chen Yizhe then walked out of the yard and opened the door, only to see two middle-aged men in dark tunic suits standing at the door, "May I ask Mr. Chen where ?"
Both of them had wireless earphones plugged into their left ears, and the earphones were hanging on their cheeks. This kind of dress was like the Zhongnanhai bodyguard in the movie, with a serious expression.
"I am!" Chen Yizhe said.
"Hello, Mr. Chen, we have been ordered to pick you up, may I go now?" one of them said.
Chen Yizhe followed the two middle-aged people into the black state bus. He was silent along the way. Chen Yizhe, who had not felt nervous for a long time, could feel this emotion at this moment. Tension is a survival instinct left by his ancestors. Instinct has almost disappeared here in Chen Yizhe.
Chen Yizhe simply mobilized the adrenaline, and his mood immediately returned to normal.
Soon, the car drove into a place that was extremely mysterious in the eyes of the Chinese.
Entering a neatly furnished office with the Secretary of State, the Prime Minister is immersed in reviewing documents. Looking up and seeing Chen Yizhe walking in, the Prime Minister stood up and said, "I'm still looking for you so late. I'm sorry, tomorrow is the National Day, and I can't arrange another time to meet in these days."
The Prime Minister walked to the reception area while talking, and then invited Chen Yizhe to take a seat. The Secretary of State brought tea in person, which made Chen Yizhe flattered.
The Prime Minister looked at Chen Yizhe and said with a smile, "I heard that at your company's product launch tonight, a carbon-based chip was released. I have read the general information. In fact, I asked you to come here this time to ask you a serious question. , your company's carbon-based chip project has really been successfully developed?"
In fact, Xia Meng is not the only company in China that is researching carbon-based chips, but different from Xia Meng, many research institutions mainly use carbon nanotubes as molecular materials for chips, rather than using graphene as Xia Meng. Program.
Chen Yizhe leaned forward slightly and said respectfully, "Prime Minister, whether it is an electronic paper project or a graphene lithium battery project, the difficulty in the industry is not much lower than that of carbon-based chips, but Xiameng Group still overcomes one by one. We have made breakthroughs in technological innovation. In the carbon-based chip project, since I founded Xiameng Electronics, I have been preparing for the research and development of this project. Therefore, I can assure you, Prime Minister, Absolutely nothing false."
"I'm relieved to hear you say that. What year did you founded Xiameng Electronics?"
"In 2003, after the discovery of graphene, I felt that it could be used in many fields, especially in semiconductor electronics, so I decided to enter this industry."
"2003? Are you 22 or 23 this year? In 5 years, you have made two of its subsidiaries into the top 100 in the country. Your generation of young people is incredible!" The manager laughed.
The Secretary of State stood aside and looked at Chen Yizhe and felt that this is indeed an incredible person. In five years, he has accumulated hundreds of billions of wealth, and he has started with a clean slate. This is basically impossible.
In 2007, all the companies under the Xiameng Group achieved a revenue of over RMB 210 billion. In this year, Xinke Environmental Protection has emerged as a new force, which has directly received orders of more than 2 billion US dollars worldwide.
In the list of the top 500 Chinese enterprises in 2007, China Life ranked eighth with a revenue of 209.8 billion.
Moreover, among the top 20 in the country, all of them are state-owned enterprises with monopoly attributes. There is basically no company under the Xiameng Group with independent high-tech content. At present, Xia Meng Display ranks 34th with a revenue of 88 billion yuan, and Xia Meng Electronics ranks 56th with a revenue of 63.3 billion yuan.
Media estimates that with a revenue of 210 billion yuan, the net profit of the high-tech-based Xiameng Group must exceed 40 billion yuan.
The media always feel that the Xiameng Group invests a lot of money in scientific research every year. However, in fact, Chen Yizhe does attach great importance to scientific research, but the investment in scientific research is very small. This is because the direction of scientific research is controlled by Chen Yizhe and Tianqi. Basically, they rarely go the wrong way. Otherwise, if the research on carbon-based chip projects is carried out purely with current talents, it is estimated that it will be difficult to achieve results in ten years. Last year, Xiameng Group actually achieved a net profit of 52.5 billion yuan for the whole year.
Since the shares of Xia Meng Group are not disclosed to the public, it is difficult for outsiders to know how many shares Chen Yizhe has in Xia Meng Group, but it is certain that his shares must exceed 50.
Even if calculated with 50 shares, Chen Yizhe's net worth exceeds 200 billion yuan, because the valuation of Xiameng Group's companies exceeds 400 billion yuan.
At the end of last year, when Forbes released the 2007 rich list, Chen Yizhe ranked first in China with 321.7 billion yuan, which was 200 billion more than the second-ranked Miss Yang from Country Garden. The reason why Forbes dares to calculate Chen Yizhe's net worth so high is because Chen Yizhe's funds have turned too much during this subprime mortgage crisis.
Chen Yizhe, who made a lot of money in 2007, continues to ride on Paulson's chariot. Since the beginning of this year, he has vigorously shorted the stocks of major financial institutions such as Goldman Sachs and Lehman. Now he has entered Europe to short European financial stocks.
In the first three quarters of 2008, US hedge funds lost 300 billion US dollars, but Chen Yizhe's profit exceeded at least 8 billion US dollars, that is, in these two years, Chen Yizhe's total profit exceeded 150 million. billion dollars.
When Forbes released this list, a reporter from Nanfang Daily also directly interviewed Chen Yizhe, who answered with a smile, "I didn't even know I was so rich, I would like to ask the statistician at Forbes someday. How did you calculate it for me?"
With Xia Meng's current size, Chen Yizhe's influence is already quite large, and the Prime Minister must know something about him, but since the Prime Minister asked, Chen Yizhe had to explain honestly, "I was born in 1986, and I was born in 2003. He just dropped out of school, and now he owns more than eight companies."
"Oh?" The prime minister looked at Chen Yizhe in amazement. He was surprised because Chen Yizhe proposed the word holding, which means that Xia Meng's companies are indeed under his control, "You make me so curious, can you? Tell me about your entrepreneurial history?"
Except for the golden finger, Chen Yizhe basically has no secrets, and he also believes that he is not a person who is not rich and uses gray or black means to restrain his wealth, so he calmly talked to the Prime Minister about starting a business in the past few years. Shi, started from the diskless system in Internet cafes, then discovered graphene, founded Xiameng Internet Technology, Xiameng Electronics, developed graphene electronic paper, and even decided to short CDOs before the subprime mortgage crisis. Of course, Chen Yizhe still focuses on the transformation of the industrial structure and the transformation and upgrading of technology.
Chen Yizhe said, "With the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial revolution, high-tech and its industries represented by microelectronics, computers, automation, atomic energy, aerospace, new materials, and new energy are gradually emerging. It has promoted the all-round development of social productive forces, and the global industrial structure is facing fundamental changes. Xia Meng can achieve such great achievements because Xia Meng attaches great importance to high-tech, takes the research and development of high-tech as the main direction, and focuses on the development of high-tech industries. And occupy the international market as the basic goal!"
"It is a great blessing for the country to have Xiameng as an enterprise! It has broken through the foreign blockade step by step, starting from scratch to the current assets of 100 billion, in just a few short years, we can see the sharpness of the high-tech industry!" The Prime Minister sighed, He seemed to have forgotten the purpose of bringing Chen Yizhe here this time, and continued to ask, "Whether it is success in entrepreneurship or financial investment, it can be seen that you are a person with vision and courage. Insights on domestic economic development?”
This month, after the international financial crisis broke out, the domestic economy has been hit quite a lot, especially the development of the export-oriented economy. Exports have experienced negative growth, and a large number of migrant workers have returned to their hometowns. The economy faces the risk of a hard landing. In order to deal with this crisis, during this period of time, major experts within the government have been discussing and studying.
"Prime Minister, I really don't have any insight into the domestic economy!" Chen Yizhe said modestly.
"Don't worry, you can say whatever you want. I just want to hear the thoughts of you, the largest private entrepreneur in China." The Prime Minister laughed.
Chen Yizhe pondered for a while, and then said solemnly, "Then let me talk about chips~www.novelbuddy.com~ The scale of hundreds of billions of chips, trends in nearly a hundred quarters, highly dispersed downstream applications and customers, Can you always react?"
"Many products require chips, even sports shoes have chips. Want to know how domestic autonomous cars are? Let's see how many automotive-grade chips are required by several domestic car manufacturers. Want to predict the business of Internet giants? Look at the server How many chips are needed, how are the power supplies and temperature and humidity sensing chips for data centers sold. Want to know how Chinese pharmaceutical companies are now? Just look at how many customers who sell spectral analysis equipment buy."
"So the chip is the source or core of many industries, and the chip is the indicator of many industries. Through the chip, we can see the micro-knowledge. In turn, the chip is also a symbol that drives the upgrading and transformation of all industries and improves competitiveness."
"This year's financial crisis, the semiconductor and chip industries in the United States and the Asia-Pacific region are all mourning. 80 of the world's semiconductor manufacturing companies have dropped 50 percent of their sales. Some American companies doing semiconductor equipment research and development have even dropped to $09 in stock prices."
"At this time, 3D printing technology and carbon-based chips appeared! Prime Minister, this is a perfect opportunity for China to achieve overtaking in semiconductor high-tech, and it is also an opportunity for the domestic economy to quickly catch up with other economies in the world. Based on the high-tech industry , in order to be invincible in international competition.”
