Technology derived

Chapter 430 The Final Winner (Part [-])
The current status quo is like this. PCs tend to decline, but mobile phones are exploding.

Furthermore, a person can have multiple mobile phones, but few people have multiple notebooks.

Similarly, a person can change a mobile phone a year, but few people change a computer a year!
Therefore, this diametrically opposed result naturally leads to a huge difference in the weight of mobile phones and PCs, and also makes TSMC's valuation surpass Intel!
Only because of Mortal Technology's move and TSMC's recent encounters, under various influences, TSMC's overall valuation is slightly lower than Intel, but it is still far higher than Samsung.

In such a situation, Wang Fan couldn't help frowning.

It seems that the strength of TSMC is much stronger than he imagined!

It's not even something that can be shaken casually!
Therefore, in the face of Wang Fan's attack, TSMC has no reason to compromise, let alone retreat.

On the contrary, tit for tat is the right thing to do!

But TSMC still compromised and retreated!

Naturally, Wang Fan would not conceitedly think that it was his domineering aura that made Zhang Zhongmou cower and shrink back.

On the contrary, it is more likely that there must be a plot to show the enemy's weakness!
And the information that Song Qian gave him is probably more important, and it is also to explain this problem!

Wang Fan couldn't help sighing that it was really not easy for Song Qian. It was really well-intentioned to wake him up at this time so that he would not be blinded by the current victory.

Of course, in Taiwan Island, Song Qian must have worked hard to obtain such precious materials.

This made Wang Fan feel inexplicably moved for a while!
Even if he has black technology, he doesn't have to worry about technology.

However, people's hearts are sinister and society is complicated. There are always hidden guns that cannot be guarded against, and hidden killer moves, which make it difficult for him to parry.

Wang Fan shook his head, closed his eyes, and began to search for TSMC's latest developments and related information through the technology derivative system, but was soon stunned.

Three days ago, TSMC's new wafer factory, which was shut down, started construction again.

Two days ago, TSMC's proposal to build an overseas factory was originally stranded due to the attack of mortal technology, but now it is all passed!And actively contact the builder, ready to invest in construction as soon as possible!

One day ago, TSMC placed another big order with ASML!

Purchased 8 sets of 14nm lithography machines at one time, catching up with the previous total!

This is a large order of nearly [-] billion Huaxia coins!

If it is said that other things can be disguised, they can be deceived, but these big investments of real gold and silver are all huge sums of money, and it is impossible to have the slightest falsehood.

Because, once such an agreement is signed, if you want to go back on your word, you will have to bear a huge liquidated damages. This kind of economic loss, even TSMC, cannot ignore it.

More importantly, the bigger the company, the more it cares about reputation and integrity. If TSMC defaults casually, it will be extremely difficult for TSMC to develop in the future.

In other words, these actions of TSMC are all real, and there is no water at all!
This made Wang Fan couldn't help but look dignified.

Although this information was all secretly acted by TSMC and did not act in a high-profile manner, it still did not escape Wang Fan's eyes, but they had expected it at first.

On the surface, due to repeated blows from Mortal Technology, TSMC was in a predicament, its stock price collapsed, and it even had to compromise.

But in fact, TSMC is secretly accumulating power and actively expanding!
It can be seen that there is a big gap between the current superficial situation and the actual situation!

Not only has TSMC not been hit by the blockade of mortal technology, but it has suffered setbacks. On the contrary, it is actively expanding!

And the reason is even more intriguing.

Wang Fan couldn't help frowning. If there is no way out, there are not enough big customers, and there are not enough orders, it is impossible for TSMC to expand so aggressively.

But these are the current major chip customers. Wang Fan understood the situation when he thought about it.

Because of Qualcomm's close relationship with Samsung, Samsung uses Qualcomm chips, and Qualcomm makes Samsung's OEM. There is no such thing as TSMC.

It is impossible for Huawei to turn against the water, and the quantity is limited, so it cannot support TSMC.

Then there are only apples left!
It seems that Cook thought that the production capacity of mortal technology was insufficient, and he couldn't afford their large chip orders, so he approached TSMC again to give Zhang Zhongmou a reassurance.

This made Zhang Zhongmou give it a go and actively expand without any scruples!
Haha!

Wang Fan couldn't help sneering.

Now it seems that what Apple gave TSMC was a reassurance and a life-saving medicine.

But in fact it is a red crane, a deadly poison!

You must know the agreement between Apple and Mortal Technology, which clearly stipulates that Apple will hand over the chip order to Mortal Technology, so that it can obtain the battery module of Mortal Technology.

If Apple defaults on the contract, Mortal Technology can sell Apple out of stock at any time, and at least ban Apple from selling in China.

Therefore, in the face of this deadly threat, it is impossible for Apple to default.

If Apple does not breach the contract and can hand over a large order of chips to TSMC, then there is only one possibility, unless the high-end production capacity of mortal technology is limited and cannot satisfy Apple's appetite, so that Apple can once again hand over a large order of chips to TSMC.

Wang Fan couldn't help shaking his head, their thinking was beautiful and reasonable.

But guessed the beginning, but guessed the wrong end.

Yes, Mortal Technology currently has only a few 14nm lithography machines, and the high-end production capacity is seriously insufficient.

It is even a problem to meet the technological needs of mortals, let alone Apple.

But what they didn't expect was that Wang Fan was able to achieve an incredible upgrade of lithography machines. He could upgrade all the existing 200-nanometer lithography machines to 20-nanometer!

In this way, once the follow-up facilities of the Mortal Technology Wafer Factory keep up, there will no longer be any problems with the production capacity of the Mortal Technology Wafer Factory.

At that time, not to mention being able to completely eat Apple's orders, or even add a Qualcomm, there is no problem!

Therefore, the dream of TSMC's rise is just a dream, the kind that can never be achieved!
And Apple gave TSMC a reassurance, let TSMC face the difficulties, invested heavily, expanded the new wafer factory, introduced advanced lithography machines, etc...

Let TSMC fully prepare to show its ambitions and change its decline!

But in the end, TSMC didn't even have enough chip orders!

It felt like buying a house, buying a car, spending a bride price, having a banquet with guests, and finally at the critical time of the bridal chamber, only to find that the promised wife suddenly disappeared...

I am afraid that the most difficult thing in the world is this. If you work hard to the end, the bamboo basket will be empty in the end!

At that time, TSMC could only cry.

And Apple Cook's late-night visit is equivalent to pushing TSMC into a fire pit!
There is only one final winner, and that is Mortal Technology!
