Chapter 540 Immersion Equipment Featured on CCTV
On the other side, at the rice company, Lei Jun was looking at Lu Weibin's repost.
He immediately started complaining to the publicity department, asking why they hadn't blocked that Weibo post, which had led to his current situation...
He knew that even if he blocked it, netizens would still dig up the information from various sources.
After all, rice companies naturally attract attention.
So Lei Jun wrote a short essay repeatedly, but he was still not entirely satisfied with it.
"boring."
He muttered something under his breath.
But only he knew that the phrase "self-deception" was like a fine needle, pricking his heart painfully.
Ultimately, it comes down to being less skilled than others.
If rice could master screen technology and chip design capabilities, why would it be spouting nonsense here?
Thinking about the chip, Lei Jun finally felt a little more confident, after all, he had a powerful chip in his hands.
So Lei Jun carefully posted another Weibo post:
"Today's online exchange with our competitors has made us aware of many issues..."
So we decided not to hide it anymore.
So now I'm here to tell you all that our first chip from Dami Semiconductor, the Surge S1, has been successfully taped out.
Everything is going well in the current testing phase. This chip uses an advanced 20nm process, and its performance is very stable. When paired with our self-developed MIUI system, it is extremely smooth.
See you in September for the specific phone details!
"There were rumors circulating before, but then CEO Lei stopped promoting it, and Transsion got the limelight again..."
"Mr. Lei, you've finally got the hang of marketing! Listen to me... Even though our chip is only mid-range, we still need to market it like someone else did, making it far ahead of the competition..."
After all, we can't afford to be at a disadvantage.
"That's right, rice has suffered because it doesn't know how to advertise."
At this moment, all the fans watching the audio transmission widened their eyes in disbelief...
After all, rice doesn't advertise, which is the most ridiculous joke in the world.
If he hadn't known how to promote it, the rice business would have died long ago.
…………
At the same time, Li Jiahui also sent people to investigate the progress of the DaMi Pengpai S1 project.
After all, when Qualcomm visited last time, they intercepted this information. Although they knew the specific performance, how could Xiaomi promote it...?
We haven't found out the details of this matter yet.
Knowing yourself and your enemy is always the best strategy, after all, you can't leave your fate in the hands of others.
On August 14th, the online flame war continued, and even showed signs of escalating.
Despite the constant criticism, the number of reservations continues to grow.
But no one knew that at 7 p.m. sharp, CCTV's 30-minute news program would start on time.
After broadcasting some current affairs news, the anchor made a report that almost no one could believe.
"According to our station, my country has achieved a major breakthrough in its domestically produced immersion DUV project today."
Following the successful verification of the domestic production of lithography machines last year, the research team, after a year of intensive technical research, has successfully broken through the technology of immersion DUV lithography machines, and the first engineering-grade mass-production prototype has officially passed acceptance.
Many viewers immediately doubted the authenticity of the news, after all, this is the most advanced lithography machine currently available...
Although China leads in manufacturing processes, it still lags behind foreign countries in lithography machines.
After all, the quad exposure technology is ultimately exclusive to Transsion; other domestic manufacturers are indeed lagging behind in terms of performance.
but now……
Just when they couldn't believe it, the TV screen cut to a live shot of the cleanroom.
Huge, precision instruments were placed on the production line. Although specific details were not shown, the camera deliberately focused on several close-ups of the Chinese markings on the equipment.
The next part was an on-site interview with Chen Jianmin, the project leader.
During the interview, he was a complete researcher:
"As the reporter just asked on behalf of everyone, is this a research prototype, and does it need further adjustments?"
My answer is clear: No.
This equipment is a commercially available model fully capable of large-scale mass production. We are currently able to accept orders and produce accordingly. Interested customers can contact us.
Furthermore, this national treasure is expected to be officially unveiled to the public in the first half of next year.
The reporter's series of flattering remarks further piqued everyone's interest.
"Could you tell us about the technological level of this equipment?" the reporter asked.
But many people at the TV station were frightened. Who was CCTV sending?
Is it really okay to talk about such advanced equipment?
Just when they thought Chen Jianming would refuse, they saw him nod:
"This immersion DUV lithography machine, combined with our independently developed secondary exposure process, can stably achieve the production of 14nm wafers."
Since the reporter asked this question, we'll just have to say goodbye here.
We sell the equipment, and we can also provide the complete process for secondary exposure.
Of course, choosing the complete process will result in a higher procurement cost.
The reporter next to him laughed and said, "Since Mr. Chen has said so, I might as well ask if this technology is a bit outdated."
Chen Jianming immediately revealed a very subtle expression:
"Well, I don't know. As you know, I'm just an old man selling lithography machines. How would I know about these technologies?"
The people sitting in front of the television were also taken aback by the news.
After all, this is 14nm, currently the world's most advanced process!
But when Lazy Sheep's assistant saw this subtle expression, he immediately understood that there must have been another breakthrough on the other end of the telepathic communication, although such a good thing would definitely be suppressed by the higher-ups.
But now... he's actually released the news and started offering takeout.
This indicates that the technology is outdated and can be demonstrated.
But this is too extravagant!
The reporter then asked several more questions, such as whether the double-exposure technology used in food delivery would affect China's leading position in semiconductor manufacturing products.
Sister Chen clearly stated that only when everyone's technology is leading can we drive the progress of the industry.
Although it was said in a very subtle way, it made more people understand that this was not an advanced technology at all, but a completely outdated one.
The interview was very short, lasting only 1 minute and 20 seconds.
But these findings have once again shaken the global semiconductor industry.
#Breakthrough in China's 14nm Lithography Machine#
#Transsion's leading position in OEM manufacturing is not true#
#Immersion DUV Lithography Machine Enters Mass Production#
#Is Advanced Equipment for Food Delivery Funding the Enemy, or a Significant Boost to Great Power Confidence?#
After trending on social media, the amount of discussion across the internet increased rapidly.
"Holy crap?! No wonder the old man called me in front of the TV... Turns out it's something this big?"
"Am I seeing things? 14nm... Isn't this the most advanced process TSMC has right now?"
"The ones upstairs aren't that advanced. Their most advanced technology is only 20 nanometers, and they still rely on buying foreign lithography machines to reach that level..."
As for 16 or 14, only Transsion is available...
