Chapter 564： Chen Xiao's trump card?
Zhang Jing was still in New York at this time.
Although Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International did not provide very good evidence to the court in the production of cores.
However, Zhang Jing still followed Chen Xiao's instructions and re-appealed.
According to the judicial process in the United States, if the defendant files an appeal, the court still has to accept it in accordance with the procedures.
In the eyes of the outside world, Zhang Jing's appeal is futile.
It has no effect other than being able to delay time.
But the relevant verdict is already settled, no matter how much Zhang Jing delays, the knife will end sooner or later.
The global semiconductor industry chain also began to adjust the relevant layout after this judgment in the United States. .
The first is that companies such as Dell and Hewlett-Packard try to contact Changtian Technology to see if they can return the pre-ordered chips.
If the judgment here takes effect.
Then my probability of mass production of Pangu chips must be 0.
Assuming that Changtian Technology has met the few orders from Dell or HP, what about the follow-up?
It is impossible for Dell to make a series for such ten or twenty thousand computers, right?
And after the computer is sold, it also faces a series of after-sales problems.
If Pangu chips cannot be produced, then accessories such as motherboards have no value.
There will certainly not be a factory vacating the production line specifically for the production of discontinued motherboards.
So at this time, stop loss is the wisest choice.
Companies such as Dell and Asus are okay, but they only applied for the return of the chip, and they are willing to give Changtian Technology a certain amount of compensation according to the agreement of the contract.
However, some PC companies are quite disgusting, and they directly and unilaterally tore up the agreement and do not even pay liquidated damages.
The phones of Changtian Technology Headquarters have been blasted.
All the calls were to cancel the orders for Pangu chips.
It's not just these PC companies who want to be concerned about the news of the US court decision.
Xia Guo Academy of Sciences and relevant state departments are also very concerned about this matter.
And take the initiative to contact Changtian Technology to see if it can provide some judicial assistance.
Very funny to say.
Whether it is the mainland area of Xia Guo or the Wanwan area of Xia Guo, it is the company of Xia Guo.
The intellectual property dispute between the two Xiaguo companies needs to be adjudicated by a U.S. court.
This is the hegemony of the United States, and the total monopoly.
Because the core part of the entire chip industry chain is in the United States.
From chip design, equipment design to equipment production, as well as the sale of chip raw materials, the procurement of chips themselves and the formulation of technical standards, almost all key links are in the United States.
Because the standard is in the hands of the Americans, the right to speak is also in the hands of the Americans.
If the chip industry in the United States says that your chip does not meet the standards, then almost all major PC companies in the world dare not purchase your chip, and the chip production equipment of other companies in the world may not be sold to you.
This is the most typical long-arm jurisdiction and intellectual hegemony.
Lianxiang was really laughing like crazy during this time.
Although Yang Qing has not made any statement to the outside world, he has also seen the news that Pangu chips have been canceled in large numbers.
Analysts from Lianxiang's marketing department immediately analyzed the relevant situation.
Their analysis found that Shenchuan's PCs depended heavily on Pangu chips.
Especially in the high-end PC field, almost the only chip that can be used is the Pangu chip.
If the production of Pangu chips is seriously affected, the products cannot be mass-produced and rolled off the assembly line normally.
Then the output of the Jiaolong series of Shenchuan must not be able to keep up.
If the production of Jiaolong cannot keep up with the sales volume, there will definitely be a sharp decline.
Shenchuan, the second-ranked PC manufacturer in the country, is likely to continue to decline to a third-rate manufacturer within a month.
Lianxiang also felt that this must be his chance.
Prior to this, Lianxiang had suspended or reduced its purchase plan for all of its chips.
The reason for this is to entangle whether to use Pangu chips.
Now Lianxiang does not have to worry about it.
Pangu chips are about to become history and disappear from this market.
Yang Qing even joked to his assistant: "You can find a way to buy a Shenzhou Jiaolong series as a collection, because soon the PCs of this series will disappear from the store shelves."
Lianxiang immediately purchased a large number of high-end chips from Intel and AMD.
Prepare for distribution in early 2005.
This time the number of purchases is the largest ever.
After all, in 2005, not only the Lianxiang brand but also the IBM brand needed to be distributed globally.
Lianxiang's ambitions are not small. He hopes to take advantage of this crisis that Changtian Technology has suffered to knock down the Shenchuan in one fell swoop, so that the Shenchuan will no longer be able to compete with Lianxiang.
The only one who can hold back is Shenchuan, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology.
Shenchuan also had to keep his composure, because he did not have any resources other than the backer of Changtian Technology.
Consumers in the market are also caught in a tangle.
Emotionally speaking, they are willing to buy the computer of the **** ship.
Because Shenchuan's computer is cost-effective, and its performance is quite good.
But intellectually speaking, they had to remove the Shenchuan computer from their purchase list.
Because after purchasing the Shenchuan computer, if Pangu chips and corresponding accessories, the production will be stopped due to the legal judgment of the United States.
What should I do if the computer encounters any after-sales problems in the future?
Song Yi sorted out what happened during this time and the information collected and reported it to Chen Xiao.
The main purpose is to seek Chen Xiao's opinion.
After all, in the face of this big PC company's request for return and refund, Changtian Technology still has some difficulties.
Song Yi is Chen Xiao's most caring person.
She doesn't know what the idea of the zodiac is now, and she doesn't know what the next step of Changtian Technology is.
But Song Yi did feel a crisis, an unprecedented crisis.
After seeing the chargeback request from Dell and other companies, Chen Xiao calmly said to Song Yi, "According to the contract."
It is clear what the contract means.
That is, Changtian Technology, which is willing to return and refund, has no opinion, you just need to pay the liquidated damages.
You want to return the money for a refund, and you don't want to pay the liquidated damages, then it's really embarrassing, there is no such book to sell.
Song Yi was in a hurry, but she was not in a hurry when she saw Chen Xiao.
Not much, so I hurried down to do the work arranged by the boss.
After all, so many companies want to return and refund, and Changtian Technology is busy.
In addition, Song Yi also undertakes the work of press speech.
There are many reporters and people in related industries looking for the relevant situation of Wanchangtian Technology by phone or in writing.
Song Yi also organizes press releases.
Gu YiAt this time, the Wanwan area.
The top executives of TiSMC such as Zhang Zhong have held a celebration banquet in the holding hotel of TiSMC.
After all, the first-instance judgment of the US court has come down.
The first-instance verdict completely agreed with all the claims of TSMC.
This laid the legal foundation for the status of TSMC as the king of semiconductors.
Zhang Zhong is actually a very smart person.
He knew what he should and should not do.
He thinks that TSMC should be a pure processing enterprise, so that the enterprise can become a support for the US chip company and serve the US chip company.
Only in this way can you live your own life peacefully and peacefully.
Zhang Zhong is also very clear that TSMC is only suitable for the dirty work of processing chips, and is not suitable for chip design and sales.
As long as TSMC has a little thought to design chips, it is completely satisfied in terms of technical strength.
But Zhang Zhong also knew that if TSMC really did this, then TSMC's fate might be much worse than that of Xiaxin International.
Technology giants such as the United States absolutely do not allow any semiconductor company outside the United States to compete with themselves in technology.
Many high-level executives of TSMC said excitedly:
"The indemnity from Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International allows us to expand our production line, and there is still a lot left!"
"We can completely put the factory in the mainland area of Xiaguo, and going there is just picking up money for nothing!"
"Isn't it true, there are absolute preferential policies, three-year tax exemption and five-year preferential tax, and free land. Take Suzhou and Hangzhou as an example. He built the factory directly, and we can just move the equipment there!"
"If you feel unhappy or the prices in other cities are better, let's withdraw the equipment and move it away!"
"We have shares in Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International, and we can use these two manufacturers as our subsidiary factories!"
Zhang Zhong listened to the high-level officials babbling about his future hegemonic world. He smiled. Although he didn't say anything, he was very proud in his heart.
Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor are a big piece of fat.
It's not that these two companies are big, but that these two companies are facing the Xiaguo market.
How big is the Xiaguo market?
The potential is immeasurable!
After eating these two big pieces of fat through legal means, TSMC definitely won the hemp!
Zhang Zhong even took out his mobile phone and called Liu Dachuan very wickedly.
"Mr. Liu, why didn't I see you back during the Spring Festival, and said I wanted to invite you to dinner!"
Liu Dachuan was also devastated at this time.
On his side, he put his life on the line, abandoned the assets of the curved island, defected to Changtian Technology, and built a factory in Shanghai.
All profits are on the production of Pangu chips.
But judging from the current situation, Liu Dachuan is likely to lose everything.
If Pangu chips are not allowed to be produced because of intellectual property reasons.
Bida Semiconductor couldn't get any orders at all.
The only chance to get an order is to re-cooperate with TiSMC, and once again go through that kind of dignified hard life.
Liu Dachuan was very angry.
Of course he knew that Zhang Zhong was calling now, and he must be uneasy and kind, but to make fun of himself.
Liu Dachuan could also hear some noisy voices behind Zhang Zhong from the phone.
The sound of drinking, the sound of cheering, and the sound of laughter.
Obviously, TSMC is holding a celebration banquet at this time.
Liu Dachuan sneered and hung up the phone without answering anything.
And what about Liu Dachuan?
The executives of Bida Semiconductor also learned of the US verdict, and two groups had formed at the top at this time.
On the one hand, I hope that Bida Semiconductor will completely withdraw from the mainland area, take back 30% of the shares in Changtian Technology, return to Wanwan Island, and cooperate with TiSMC again.
Because from the current point of view, this is the only way for Bida Semiconductor to survive.
Another wave of people insisted on staying in the mainland Shanghai market because they were fed up with TSMC.
"Even if Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor received an unfavorable judgment this time, the Xiaguo market is an uncultivated virgin land!"
"Then we can give full play to our technical advantages and start from scratch! It doesn't matter if we have to work harder now!"
Liu Dachuan's head hurt when he watched the high-level quarrel.
…
Jiangzhou Changtian Technology Headquarters.
Chen Xiao is watching a movie and drinking tea in the office.
The phone rang quickly and then calmed down.
This is the sound of text messages.
Chen Xiao opened his phone and saw that it was from Wang Xiang.
Wang Xiang said in a text message: "I have arrived in Holland and got in touch with ASML."
Chen Xiao replied in a text message: "Enjoy the blooming tulips and the spinning windmill."
Spring has arrived and the weather is gradually returning.
From March to May, when the tulips are in full bloom, Chen Xiao said to himself: "Going to Holland at this time is really a beautiful scenery!"
Wang Xiang didn't have any time to enjoy the scenery.
With a team of three, he found the senior management of ASML through the Chinese engineers on the side of Holland.
Asmar learned that it was the CEO and president of Changtian Technology who came to visit, and they paid more attention to it, and sent a deputy general manager Cosiros to meet Wang Xiang.
Cosiros thought that Wang Xiang was here to buy a lithography machine. After all, he knew about Changtian Technology and its subsidiary Yanjiang Semiconductor.
The 130-nanometer optical technology currently used by Yanjiang Semiconductor is still obtained from middlemen on the European side, not directly from ASML.
The most commonly used 180-nanometer optical technology of Xiaxin International is the outdated second-hand goods purchased from Germany.
Kosiros also knows the judgment of the United States, although Yanjiang Semiconductor is appealing , but there is little chance of a comeback.
Although the judgment of the US court did not prohibit Changtian Technology from engaging in the semiconductor processing industry.
But ASML's most important shareholder is Intel.
Intel is absolutely not willing to sell the related equipment of Longsky Technology here.
Moreover, after the 1980s, the United States and Europe introduced a series of laws prohibiting the export of high-end equipment to Xia.
Lithography machine is one of the high-end equipment.
Cosiros also said very directly: "Mr. Wang Xiang, you should also know the current situation of the industry. There is definitely no way for us to sell equipment to your company."
"But if your company really needs products, we can sell some civilian microlithography machines."
This is totally insulting.
Wang Xiang smiled and did not answer, and said, "Mr. Kosiros, this time I am here in the name of the company, not to purchase equipment, but to discuss cooperation with you."
This time, Kosiros was stunned. What can Changtian Technology cooperate with?
Wang Xiang said: "I wonder if ASML is interested in a 65-nanometer lithography machine with a yield rate of over 90%?"
