Chapter 225 Press Conference
At eight o'clock in the evening, in the conference room of the Marriott Hotel.
Shenlong authoritative media were all present.
The well-known Internet media and technology media have all set up their camera equipment, facing the direction of the rostrum.
Behind the rostrum is a screen, and a line of text is currently being displayed on the screen.
"National Chip Corporation lithography machine procurement contract signing conference!"
Because the press conference didn't start until 8:30, many reporters started chatting after installing the equipment.
"The day before yesterday, Li Chengqian released the news of the successful development of the lithography machine on the Internet. Today, the National Chip Corporation came to sign a contract with Shenlong Software Company. The state's support for Shenlong Software Company is really great."
"How do you talk, can't it be that the lithography machine produced by Shenlong Software Company has a good performance?"
"Tch, Shenlong Software Company is a software company. They come to produce lithography machines. No matter how they sound, they are unreliable. I think that this time, the national chip company will purchase the lithography machines of Shenlong Software Company. The quantity ordered will definitely not be high." More, it’s just an attitude.”
"I heard that the procurement team of the National Chip Corporation is still in ASML! It has never been back. At this time, it suddenly announced that the development of the lithography machine was successful, the lithography machine can be mass-produced, and a contract signing conference will be held. , you taste it, and you will understand after careful taste."
Some people also think about it in conjunction with the news that Huang Jun and others are still in Asmail.
I immediately thought of something different.
"Oh..." After hearing the news, many people looked thoughtful.
The press conference is being held now, which is obviously to make Asmer feel the pressure.
This is a means for the national chip company to lower prices.
While everyone was chatting, Wang Yizhi and Li Chengqian walked to the rostrum in formal attire with smiles on their faces.
The two contracts were placed in front of Li Chengqian and Wang Yizhi respectively.
After the two quickly signed, the contract documents were exchanged.
"Mr. Li, thank you! Thank you for your support!" Wang Yizhi shook hands with Li Chengqian excitedly.
"Mr. Wang, you are too polite. I just want to thank you for your support." Li Chengqian felt a little embarrassed by Wang Yizhi. After deducting the production cost, he can still earn about 150 million yuan for a lithography machine. Engraving machine, combined to earn 7 billion.
The reporters in the audience were a little confused after hearing what Wang Yizhi said.
Logically speaking, it is Li Chengqian who thanked the National Chip Corporation for its support. How could it be Wang Yizhi who thanked Li Chengqian?
This doesn't sound reasonable at all.
Now, someone heard the rumors from the crowd just now.
This contract signing ceremony is just a show, a show specially for ASML.
National Chip Corporation will use the signing process to put pressure on ASML.
So that the work of the procurement team who went to ASML can be carried out smoothly.
"Are you curious about the size of our contract this time?" After letting go of Li Chengqian's hand, Wang Yizhi looked at the reporters in the audience and spoke loudly.
"Yes! Can Mr. Wang reveal it?"
"Mr. Wang, how many lithography machines have you ordered from Shenlong Software Company? Can you explain in detail?"
"Mr. Wang, what are the specific performance parameters of the lithography machine you purchased from Shenlong Software Company?"
"Mr. Wang, what is the reason for purchasing the lithography machine from Shenlong Software Company this time? Is it for the purpose of supporting domestic production?"
Wang Yi was used to such scenes a long time ago, and dealt with them very calmly.
Wang Yizhi raised his hand, "Everyone be quiet!"
"I will answer all the questions you raised today." Wang Yizhi clapped his hands, and a number appeared on the big screen behind him.
47 units!
After seeing this number, the reporters were stunned.
"Wait, what does this mean? The order quantity is 47 units, is that what you mean?"
"No way, order 47 units directly?"
"Shenlong Software Company has just developed a lithography machine. How long will it take to produce these 47 lithography machines?"
"My friends from the press, we have signed a contract with Shenlong Software Company to purchase 47 Shenlong 1 lithography machines from Shenlong Software Company!"
"Dragon-1 lithography machine is a 7nm DUV lithography machine, which can be used for chip production from 7nm to 90nm!"
After hearing this, the reporters fell silent, and everyone became excited, "Big news, this is big news!"
"Damn it, Shenlong Software actually produced a 7nm lithography machine! Is Li Chengqian a god?"
"The domestic lithography machine has made a major breakthrough and successfully developed and produced a 7-nanometer DUV lithography machine!" Some people already have news headlines in their heads.
Amid the excited eyes of everyone, Wang Yizhi continued to speak.
"Shenlong 1 lithography machine is suitable for silicon wafers from 50 mm to 450 mm!"
"The production efficiency is 300% higher than that of similar products!"
"In terms of production quality, after experimental production, the yield rate of chips produced by Shenlong 1 lithography machine has reached 99%, which is 30% higher than that of similar competing products!"
After Wang Yizhi finished speaking, all the reporters were shocked.
"Wang Yizhi means that the lithography machine produced by Shenlong Software Company is better than ASML's lithography machine!"
"My God, how is this possible!"
"How can Shenlong Software Company be so powerful! Not only has it broken through foreign blockades in the operating system, but it has also achieved such a big breakthrough in the field of lithography machines."
"Actually, the question I want to know most now is how long it will take for the 47 lithography machines purchased by National Chip Corporation from Shenlong Software Company to arrive and form real productivity."
"This is going to be a disaster for ASML!"
Wang Yizhi seemed to know what everyone was most concerned about. He said unhurriedly, "According to the contract, the delivery date for this batch of lithography machines is half a year!"
"The delivery date for the first batch of 10 lithography machines is one month!"
"That is to say, in one month at the earliest, and in half a year at the latest, the national chip company will be able to form the productivity of 7-nanometer chips!"
"Here is also using your platform to make an advertisement. For companies that need to produce 7-nanometer chips, the National Chip Company has accepted OEM orders! You can call for consultation."
"As for the price of lithography machines that everyone is most concerned about... Mr. Li, can you tell me about the price?" Wang Yizhi looked at Li Chengqian.
Everyone's eyes shifted to Li Chengqian, and at the same time, all cameras turned to Li Chengqian.
"There is nothing that cannot be said! The price of Shenlong 1 lithography machine is 200 million units!" Li Chengqian said the price generously.
"It's too cheap! Compared with the Shenlong 1 lithography machine, ASML's lithography machine is a piece of shit, and their price is 300 million!"
"I finally understood why Mr. Wang had to thank Li Chengqian at the beginning! Such a good performance, only sold 200 million units, which is really a friendly price." Many people immediately understood why at the beginning, Wang Yizhi would like to thank Li Chengqian.
"Is Li Chengqian a god? How did he do it?"
"I now seriously suspect that Li Chengqian is trying to make money at a loss! The price of 200 million units, I am afraid that the cost will not be enough." There are also professionals in related industries who are puzzled.
Because the production cost of ASML is very transparent, the cost of a 7nm DUV lithography machine is about 250 million!
ASML has been in this industry for many years and is the market leader with very strong bargaining power.
Phoenix Software Company has just entered this industry. Let alone the R&D cost, it is the price of purchasing related accessories, which will definitely not be too cheap.
Especially in terms of lenses, light sources, and ultra-precision motors, Shenlong Software must have spent a lot of money to purchase them.
"Mr. Li, at the price of 200 million, are you not losing money?" Someone asked directly.
Li Chengqian smiled, and then answered the question, "This reporter friend, no one will do a loss-making business!"
"The price of 200 million is still profitable for Shenlong Software Company."
"Because all the components of Shenlong 1 lithography machine are domestically produced! We have mastered the core production technology!"
"The lens, light source, and ultra-precision motor are all products of Shenlong Software Company!"
These components seem to have a small proportion, but they are actually the key to the lithography machine, accounting for a lot of cost.
Because of the extremely high technical difficulty, only a few companies in the world can produce it, resulting in terribly expensive prices.
The cost of the lens is about 100,000, but the selling price is 50 million!
The same is true for the light source, and the precision motor.
The premium is not several times or tens of times, but hundreds of times!
