The former richest man in China threatened to make Chinese chips in 6 months, what happened in the e

When it comes to China's richest man, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind may be Jack Ma, Li Ka-shing, Wang Jianlin and other figures with heads and faces. If you go back 20 years ago, the richest man in China at that time was a man named Mu Zhong. This legend in the business world, who originally had a great future, was imprisoned for a fraud case, which is really embarrassing.

So, what happened?

When Mu Zhong was young, he always wanted to be a reporter, but unfortunately, he failed the college entrance examination. But he still didn't give up, and later became a student in the junior college class of Wuhan Zhongnan Architectural Design Institute in Hubei. After half a year of study, I was forced to drop out of school because of my student status.

Helplessly, he could only enter the society in advance and did the work of a boiler worker.

During this period, he worked hard to learn Marxism-Leninism and philosophy. During this period, Mu Zhong was once imprisoned for an unjust crime and spent four years in prison. However, his enthusiasm has not been exhausted by life.

After being released from prison, Mu Zhong began to co-organize"Wanxian City Sino-German Store"Since then, he has embarked on the road to prosperity.

In 1984, he founded the Sino-German Industrial Development Corporation. Later, he began to involve the development of supper, clothing, fleet, sugar, refrigerators, etc., and the business began to grow bigger and bigger, so much so that it later became a myth in the business world. In 1995, Mou became the fourth richest person in Chinese mainland in Forbes magazine.

After that, he also made a name for himself by exchanging large quantities of leather for Soviet civilian aircraft.

In 1997, Mu also threatened that he could manufacture China's own chips in six to eight months, but unfortunately he was arrested and imprisoned on suspicion of letter of credit fraud before it could be realized. After serving 16 years in prison, he finally left the prison, and at that time, he had already had nothing left, only three buildings and 264 staff housing units. I heard that after he was released from prison, he met a lot of people, did a lot of things, and thought about continuing to start a business.

As for the specifics, we don't know.

As a result, although a lot of money and technology were invested, it was not developed.

It wasn't made, because the chip is small, and the technology needed is very extensive, but it's good that he has such a starting point, and we wish him success.

The latest status quo of China's chips faces technology and capacity bottlenecks.

The current situation of China's chip industry can be described as "the predicament is still there, but the development is falling rapidly". Although the chip blockade and ban have caused certain pressure and challenges to domestic manufacturers, enterprises are still increasing investment and R&D efforts in the chip industry.

In terms of chip design, Chinese chip design companies have been in a leading state in the world in the low-end field, but in terms of high-end processor chip design, China still has a big gap compared with foreign countries. In addition, chip manufacturing is also one of the shortcomings of China's chip industry, which requires increased investment and research and development.

It is worth noting that China has put forward policies such as "new infrastructure" and digital economy to continuously support the development of the chip industry. Driven by market demand and national policies, China's chip industry is expected to continue to maintain a rapid development trend, but it needs to solve the current technology and capacity bottlenecks.

Breakthrough measures

Improve the level of chip design: Chip design is the core link of the chip industry, domestic enterprises can increase investment in chip design, and strengthen cooperation with foreign companies to improve the level of chip design and technical experience.

Accelerate the localization process of semiconductor equipment: semiconductor equipment is the key to the production of cavity chips, domestic enterprises can increase the research and development and production of semiconductor equipment, improve the quality and technical level of equipment, to meet the needs of domestic chip production.

Breakthroughs in core technologies: Domestic enterprises can strengthen research and breakthroughs in core technologies, such as processors, memories, sensors, etc., to improve the performance and competitiveness of chips. Strengthen independent innovation and R&D.

The information revealed is that these chip companies may and will avoid some cooperative relations with China, and some people are deliberately bribing these people to sanction China in this way, which will affect China's scientific and technological development. China's chips will achieve a breakthrough in recent years, and it can also solve the problem of China's lack of chips in China's international status.

It reveals my country's determination to develop chips now, and I think that chips will be able to develop in another 2 or 3 years.

Chinese chips will rise.

If the United States does not turn back in time, it will lead to American companies falling deeper and deeper, and the opportunity for the rise of Chinese chips may come.

As Academician Ni Guangnan said, core technology cannot be bought or exchanged. This tells us that we need independent research and development to make breakthroughs in core technologies.

With the support of design, coupled with the increase in production of the manufacturing industry, it is believed that more and more chips will land locally to achieve the improvement of chip self-sufficiency. Of course, this takes time to precipitate, after all, thick accumulation can thin hair.

About China Chip

China core refers to the computer processing chip independently developed and manufactured by China, the implementation of the "China chip" project, the use of dynamic assembly line structure, research and development and production of a series of Chinese chips.

General chips include: soul core series, Loongson series, VIA series, Shenwei series, Feiteng series, Shenwei series; Embedded chips include: Starlight series, Beizhong series, Hunan SMIC series, Vantone series, Ark series, Shenzhou Loongson series.

Relying on the core technology and intellectual property rights accumulated for a long time in the chip field, foreign giants have always occupied the strategic location of integrated circuits through the advantages of technology, capital and brand, especially in the manufacturing technology, design capabilities and coding technology in the chip production process. It is often used as a bargaining chip to carry out ** sanctions and export embargoes, which have brought great trouble to China's server, computer, and mobile phone industries, and have caused several security impacts on core industries such as government affairs and banking.

In fact, domestic chips have been facing two problems. First, there is no core technology to start late, and the start of domestic chips is very late, and we have almost started to engage in chips when there is already mature technology abroad, so it has been unsatisfactory in development. Because the design of signal chain chips is more complex than that of power management chips, there is still a big gap between the development level of China's chips and foreign countries, so we have no core technology and are very dependent on foreign chip imports.

Second, the general environment and the United States' sanctions against China, and the moment the economic war with the United States started, the United States announced that it would sanction Huawei, which also made China's chip development reputation once again blocked, coupled with the sudden "attack" of the epidemic, the rise of chips is even more difficult. It's just that domestic chips currently have a high market share in the packaging enterprise market, and some of them have a great breakthrough in the field of high-end chip device packaging.

3. Summary: The general environment has led to a global shortage of chips, and China is even more difficult, Huawei was originally sanctioned as a major fatal factor, coupled with the current tension in the Taiwan Strait, the chip war is in full swing. Although China has introduced relevant policies in this regard, China's new integrated circuit production lines have been put into operation and the momentum of rapid development, but the most important thing is to continue independent innovation on the basis of not giving up independent research and development.

The richest man in China's chip industry

The Chinese chip circle, which has always been low-key, has a big news. Yu Renrong, the richest man in China's chips, decided to donate more than 20 billion yuan to build a university in Ningbo.

If the donation is fulfilled, Yu Renrong will become the first benevolent person in China. Because according to the statistics of the "Forbes 2019 China Charity List", the total amount of donations of the 100 richest people on the list in 2019 is only 100 million yuan.

Yu Renrong's donation of more than 20 billion yuan can be said to be more than the sum of 100 billionaires. So, the question now is, who is this Yu Renrong? Why is there so much courage?

We can see from public information that he was born in 1966, a native of Ningbo, Zhejiang, the chairman of Weir shares, and is the most profitable person in China's chip industry, which can be called a "gold maker". Especially in the past three years, his net worth has increased nearly 15 times, up to 100 million US dollars, becoming the richest man in China's chip industry.

Vail shares have been transformed

Then, what is more exaggerated than Yu Renrong's net worth is the stock price of Weir shares. The issue price of the listing in May 2017 was yuan, and by January 8 this year**, the share price of Weir shares was 266 yuan, an increase of about 38 times.

However, what is interesting is that in the early stage of listing, the market did not recognize Weir shares, believing that it was a distributor and not a real chip company.

Until 2018, Weir Co., Ltd. acquired Beijing Haowei equity, Sipico equity, and Shixinyuan equity, from a distribution business-based company to a semiconductor design-based, distribution business-supplemented chip company.

Among them, the biggest contribution is Beijing Haowei. You must know that the predecessor of Beijing OmniVision is the old American technology giant OmniVision Technology, which has been the leader of the high-end market in image sensor chips for a long time. With the rise of Sony and Samsung, OmniVision Technology's market share has gradually been eroded and has fallen to the third place in the industry.

However, "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse", when Weir decided to acquire Beijing Haowei in 2018, Beijing Haowei's total assets were almost 5 times that of Weir shares, and its net assets were nearly 8 times that of Weir.

The legendary Tsinghua EE85 class

Then, the reason why Weir shares can stage a "snake swallowing an elephant" is related to Yu Renrong's graduation from the legendary 85 class of the Radio Department of Tsinghua University.

You must know that this class of Tsinghua alumni later supported half of China's semiconductor field.

According to incomplete statistics, among the A-share semiconductor listed companies, 4 of the top 15 companies in total market capitalization were founded by them, namely Weir shares, GigaDevice Innovation, Unisplendour Guowei, and Zhuosheng Micro, covering chip design, manufacturing, packaging and equipment in the semiconductor industry chain.

What's more worth mentioning is that Chen Datong, one of the founders and COO of OmniVision in the United States, is an alumnus of the Radio Department of Tsinghua University in 1977, that is, Yu Renrong's brother, and most of the initial R&D team of OmniVision in the United States came from Tsinghua University, and then the company was acquired by a Chinese-funded consortium, and there are also elements of Tsinghua.

It can be said that this laid the foundation for Yu Renrong's acquisition, and once again verified the statement that "half of China's chip industry is from Tsinghua University"!

Yu Renrong, the richest man in China's chips, decided to donate 20 billion yuan to build a university in Ningbo, and there is still a huge strength behind it, according to a ** statistics, 4 of the top 15 A-share semiconductor listed companies in the total market value were founded by them, these 4 companies are Weir shares, GigaDevice Innovation, Ziguang Guowei, and Zhuosheng Micro.

Yu Renrong graduated from the legendary Class 85 of the Radio Department of Tsinghua University, and this Tsinghua alumni support half of China's semiconductor field. You must know that Chen Datong, one of the founders and COO of OmniVision in the United States, also graduated from the Radio Department of Tsinghua University.

Behind it should be the power of capital. From being the fallen master to becoming the richest man in China, it means that from an unbright profession to a bright profession, this kind of thing can only be completed by capital.

Of course, it is our country's scientific research staff. They worked tirelessly to give their strength to our country's chips.

What's more worth mentioning is that Chen Datong, one of the founders and COO of OmniVision in the United States, is an alumnus of the Radio Department of Tsinghua University in 1977, that is, Yu Renrong's brother, and most of the initial R&D team of OmniVision in the United States came from Tsinghua University, and then the company was acquired by a Chinese-funded consortium, and there are also elements of Tsinghua.

It can be said that this laid the foundation for Yu Renrong's acquisition, and once again verified the statement that "half of China's chip industry is from Tsinghua University"!

Back in 2001. At that time, China was vigorously investing in the construction of the chip industry and hiring outstanding talents in the chip industry to make up for the gap in China's chip industry. At this time, Chen Jin appeared. With an excellent resume, Chen Jin returned to China:

Chen Jin, this person's stubbornness has led the country to miss the best reality.

This person is Chen Jin, this person's problem is very big, and his approach is particularly bad.

This person is Hanxin, this person is really hateful, and China has missed the ** era.

This big sinner is a returnee doctor Chen Jin, who is too opinionated.
