Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Chapter 563 Technology is King, No Compromise

Jiang Zhou did not expect that Chen Xiao would be so hard-hearted, that he would not compromise at all.

Jiang Zhou also recognized the seriousness of the matter.

As Chen Xiao said, countless compromises may not get the results he wants.

On the contrary, the president will increase the popularity of others and destroy his own prestige.

What should I do if the TSMC lion opens its mouth?

And based on Jiang Zhou's understanding of TSMC.

TSMC, such a shameless enterprise, may really do things that seriously damage the interests of Changtian Technology.

Jiangzhou was ready to contact Zhang Jing immediately to convey Chen Xiao's intentions to Zhang Jing.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jing is negotiating with Zhang Zhong on Wanwan Island...

And the negotiations have come to a critical moment.

Chen Xiao's judgment was correct.

TSMC really is a big opening for a lion.

He gave Zhang Jing a choice.

Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor will pay TiSMC 125 million meters and 175 million meters respectively as the cost of the out-of-court settlement.

This resolves so-called patent and trade secret lawsuits.

In addition, TSMC will claim related profits from Pangu chips.

TSMC's behavior was even more disgusting than Chen Xiao expected.

Chen Xiao predicts that no matter how TSMC intends, it is impossible to directly ask for cash, but to take a cut of each chip.

But TSMC did not do so, and he asked Yanjiang Semiconductor to pay him 200 million meters in cash in installments over the next five years.

And Xiaxin International is required to pay 100 million meters in cash in installments over the next five years.

At the same time, TSMC will ask for 10% of Xiaxin International and 15% of Yanjiang Semiconductor.

Seeing such a reconciliation proposal, Zhang Jing trembled with anger.

However, he still maintained his calmness on the surface, and did not immediately get angry with Zhang Zhong.

The settlement amount of hundreds of millions of meters, as well as 10% and 15% of the shares, as well as compensation paid in installments.

In this way, TiSMC has requested a total of no less than 1 billion meters from Yanjiang Semiconductor Company and Xiaxin International.

This is a very scary sum.

You must know that when Changtian Technology chose to cooperate with Softbank in order to open up foreign markets to obtain chips from Intel, it only received an investment of 20 million meters from Softbank.

Zhang Jing felt that if he signed such an agreement, he would be the contemporary Li Hongzhang, and he would have completely sold Changtian Technology.

So Zhang Jing has been looking at the content of the agreement, but has not made a statement, let alone signed it.

Zhang Zhong has been observing Zhang Jing's performance, and he said jokingly: "As long as Mr. Zhang signs the agreement, then we are still a family."

Zhang Jing is the dual CEO of Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor, as well as the legal representative.

So he has the right to sign.

Zhang Zhong added: "I still feel very regretful when you left TSMC, Mr. Zhang."

"But life is so wonderful, after you've gone around in a circle, you're still back!"

"I believe that as long as we reach a cooperation between the two sides, then the entire global semiconductor production market will definitely have our place!"

Zhang Zhong's calculation is very shrewd, and the conditions are stuck.

Seeing that Zhang Jing was slow to write, he continued to add fuel to the fire.

"In less than half a month, there will be a court session in the United States."

"Do you think your odds are good?"

"If you are sentenced to lose the case, whether it is Xiaxin International or Yanjiang Semiconductor, the losses you will get will far exceed this number!"

While drinking tea, Zhang Zhong said, "I know that you have a lot of orders for Pangu chips, not only from Shenchuan, but also from Asus, Dell and other companies."

"According to industry rules, liquidated damages are attached to the contract of each order."

"In this way, you think you can bear the corresponding losses."

Zhang Jing also knew that he was now at an absolute disadvantage.

Zhang Zhong pointed to the stack of documents beside him again, "This is the process flow used by Xiaxin International's 180-nanometer and 130-nanometer chip production lines, the latest evidence of infringement, I can say with certainty that Xiaxin International is producing new products at 130 nanometers. 90% of the technological process used comes from TSMC!”

"Mr. Zhang, do we really want to go to court?"

Zhang Jing took a deep breath, and the explorer said, "Is there any room for negotiation on the settlement amount and equity? I can accept 10% of Xiaxin International's equity!"

"But TiSMC wants to own 15% of Yanjiang Semiconductor, which is very difficult for Changtian Technology to accept. Although I am the CEO of Yanjiang Semiconductor, I am not alone in this company."

Zhang Zhong has already seen that the other party intends to settle down and choose to compromise.

Therefore, Zhang Zhong said: "This is your problem. Anyway, there will be less than half a month from now until the trial."

"But this piece of evidence in my hands will soon be submitted to the U.S. court."

Zhang Jing took a deep breath.

It really doesn't make sense.

Indeed, what Zhang Zhong said was absolutely correct.

About 90% of the core manufacturing technology of chips is the same as TSMC.

Can be completely identified as technology theft or plagiarism.

But this is not the technology that Zhang Jing took from TSMC, but that Shida Semiconductor, which was founded by Zhang Jing, was acquired by TSMC.

Such technology is also owned by TiSMC.

Humiliation, Zhang Jing felt extremely humiliated.

It's like the ancient times when crime was written on the face and sent to remote areas.

Zhang Jing said: "I can sign this part of Xiaxin International, of course it is Yanjiang Semiconductor Company, I can't sign it, I have to go back and get their consent first."

Zhang Zhong spread his hands and said, "No problem at all! I welcome you at any time!"

Zhang Zhong personally has a plan. As long as Xiaxin International signs this part, then the containment of Yanjiang Semiconductor is also a sure thing.

Just at this time.

Zhang Jing's cell phone rang.

Because it was at a critical moment in the negotiation, Zhang Jing did not intend to accept it.

He hung up the phone.

But within two seconds, the phone rang again.

Zhang Jing had no choice but to apologize to Zhang Zhong and walked out of the conference room with the phone.

It was Jiang Zhou who called.

Jiang Zhou said eagerly and seriously on the phone:

"Don't do stupid things! You absolutely cannot do things that are settled out of court!"

"I'm in Jiangzhou with President Chen now."

"Mr. Chen's intention is very clear, to fight to the end without compromise!"

Zhang Jing was still very excited and excited when he heard Jiang Zhou say this.

But emotions are emotions, and facts are facts.

The fact is that Xiaxin International and Magma Semiconductor are currently producing Pangu chips, and the core part is indeed 90% identical to TSMC.

Zhang Jing was about to inform Jiang Zhoushi of his concerns.

Jiang Zhou said clearly: "Mr. Zhang, you must fully trust Chen Xiao! Changtian Technology must have the ability and technology to surpass TSMC in a comprehensive manner!"

"This war will be fought sooner or later! We can't just compromise!"

"I don't know what conditions you are talking about, but I believe that TSMC will speak loudly. The conditions he offered are not for the peaceful coexistence of our companies and for real cooperation."

"Their purpose is to hope that Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International will die!"

The last sentence touched Zhang Jing very much.

He now thinks about it carefully. From the current point of view, the conditions offered by TiSMC are beneficial to Xiaxin International.

At least the disputes between the two parties can be resolved, and Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor can successfully produce and complete orders.

But in the long run.

This time after the two sides reached an agreement.

TSMC is like driving a nail into the interior of the two companies.

He can completely control the production progress and even the market share of the two companies according to his own interests.

Then Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor will be the same as Bida Semiconductor, called TSMC's subsidiary.

This will seriously restrict the development of the two companies.

Zhang Jing set up to predict that TSMC could even interfere with the production of Pangu chips one day in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jing's cold sweat broke down.

This out-of-court settlement agreement cannot be signed.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jing had already made a decision.

Since the war between the two sides will break out sooner or later.

So sooner rather than later.

After Zhang Jing walked into the conference room, Zhang Zhong still looked at him with a smile.

Because in Zhang Zhong's heart, this agreement must have been signed, and there is no room for compromise.

Who knows that Zhang Jing seems to have suddenly changed to a different person.

Zhang Jing said to Zhang Zhong, "Mr. Zhang, see you in court!"

After dropping this sentence, Zhang Jing walked out of TiSMC's headquarters.

Leaving the crowd looking at each other.

Zhang Zhong also didn't understand why Zhang Jing suddenly changed his mind?

Is he really not afraid of the judgment on the US side?

Zhang Zhong suddenly became angry and manic.

He patted the table and immediately said: "Now take it out and send this evidence to the courts in New York and California in the United States!"

Zhang Zhong knew that Fang Fang's chance of mediation in court had dropped to 0.

The only way is to take the legal route.

After leaving TiSMC's headquarters, Zhang Jing's mood instantly relaxed.

He spent two days visiting his relatives in the Wanwan area before returning to the Shanghai market.

Zhang Jing knew that the next few months would be an uphill battle.

as predicted.

Just when Zhang Jing left Bay Island, TiSMC once again submitted new information and new evidence to the U.S. District Courts of New York and California.

These evidences are more able to prove that 90% of the Pangu chips produced by Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International are similar to TSMC.

After these materials were submitted, Yanjiang Semiconductor and Xiaxin International were almost sentenced to death.

The atmosphere across the industry has grown tense.

TSMC has also joined forces with Intel to create public opinion on a global scale.

The public opinion made Yanjiang Peninsula Jie Company and Xiaxin International convince the so-called crime of stealing technology.

The team led by Zhang Jing went to the United States and went to court with TiSMC.

in the lawsuit.

The conditions offered by TSMC are even more abhorrent than the settlement between the two courts.

He asked Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor to compensate TSMC for technical losses of 1 billion meters.

At the same time, Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor are required to permanently stop using this technology to produce 130-nanometer and 180-nanometer chips.

It also asked Zhang Jing's team to immediately resign from Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor, and not be able to enter the semiconductor industry within 10 years.

This condition is basically to make Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor die immediately.

Zhang Jing and his team actively responded to the lawsuit and also submitted relevant materials to the U.S. District Court.

But people in the industry know it.

The chance of Zhang Jing's comeback is really too small.

Moreover, the entire international computer and semiconductor industry is discussing this matter, and they are very puzzled as to why the two sides clearly had the opportunity to settle in court, but did not do it.

Zhang Jing still has many friends in the United States.

Friends asked.

"Why not choose to stop and reconcile?"

"I read the Wall Street Journal report, and the conditions offered by TSMC are still barely acceptable."

"Brother Zhang Jing, I heard about it! Your side has absolutely no chance of winning! Such a hasty medical technique, isn't this an active surrender?"

Faced with inquiries and concerns from friends and relatives.

Zhang Jing's heart was very firm and calm.

Internationally, similar to companies such as Samsung, this is watching the excitement.

Anyway, it's all a feud between Xiaguo technology companies, and everyone is happy to see it succeed.

Whether it is the death of Yanjiang Semiconductor Company or the loss of TSMC's technical patent.

This is good for companies like Samsung.

And companies such as Dell are watching.

Because if Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor lose the lawsuit, the Pangu chips purchased by Dell will definitely be affected.

Lianxiang, which failed miserably in the field of centralized procurement, seized the last straw.

Lianxiang was very excited.

I desperately hope that Yanjiang Semiconductor can be locked up~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Because only if Yanjiang Semiconductor loses, can Pangu chips stop producing and selling.

The advantages of the Shenchuan Jiaolong series will be gone.

This world is still the world of Lianxiang.

November 2005.

That is, when Pangu chips are in full swing, when the related products are distributed in large quantities.

The joint judgments of the U.S. District Courts of California and New York came out at the same time.

There are no surprises.

There are no miracles either.

Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Peninsula Sports Company lost the lawsuit.

The court fully supports all the claims in the TSMC indictment.

The court determined that Zhang Jing's team had indeed stolen the intellectual property rights of TiSMC before coming to Xiaguo to start a business, and brought the technology to Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor.

When the verdict came out, the entire industry was shocked.

Because the amount of compensation requested by TSMC is also the highest in history in the industry.

It also asked Xiaxin International and Yanjiang Semiconductor to stop using the technology to produce chips.

Xia Guo's semiconductor industry suddenly turned gloomy.

Xia Guo Academy of Sciences and other scientific research institutions have called Chen Xiao to inquire about the relevant situation and expressed concern about this.

The public and netizens were even more angry.

Everyone is suspicious and puzzled as to why the U.S. district court can control technology companies involved in Xia.

TSMC is jubilant.

This victory is bound to establish TSMC's leading position in the semiconductor industry.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao was very calm.

It's still coming.

Chen Xiao immediately made two reactions.

The first one, let Zhang Jing continue to appeal.

Second, let Wang Xiang go to the Netherlands in Europe with relevant materials.

The fun has only just begun.
