Chapter 905: Network response

Chapter 900
At 8 o'clock that evening, in addition to an announcement issued at noon, the official website of the Star Group issued an announcement again.
This announcement is very simple, just a simple disclosure of the cooperation between Star Group and Huawei Group in the chip field. Please look forward to it.
The specific content of the cooperation has not been disclosed, but at this critical moment, when countless chip manufacturers cut off the supply, issuing such a cooperation announcement makes people can't help but imagine.
Every move of the Star Group has always attracted everyone's attention.
Announcement issued at night, for other companies, it will definitely be sprayed with blood, but the company that issued the announcement is Star Group.
You must know that Star Group had a history of making important announcements at 12 o'clock in the evening. Even at 8 o'clock in the evening, many people still paid attention.
This announcement, spread by interested people, quickly spread throughout the network.
Almost instantly, he rushed to a hot topic.
The news of the Star Group is so scary, which is why many netizens have specially set up a reminder function.
For a time, there was a lot of discussion on the Internet.
"I'm going, right? At noon, it seemed that someone recommended Star Group to cooperate with Huawei. I didn't expect that the two parties had completed their cooperation intentions just in the evening. Is this too fast?"
"What is the content of their cooperation? It hasn't been disclosed. It's not really chip manufacturing, right? Boldly guess that Feidian and other companies have stopped supplying chips. Are they planning to buy from Huawei?"
"Hehe, I think too much. Huawei itself needs a lot of chips. He is still worried about not finding a chip supplier. Knowing that the time for the ultimatum is not far away."
"Strange, doesn't it mean that Huawei Group has developed mainstream high-end chips at the 5nm level? Why can't the Star Group like to buy from Huawei?"
"Hey, tell you to read more, you don't listen. Design and production are separate, and Huawei only designs 5nm chips.
If you want to produce independently, you need a lithography machine capable of producing 5 nanometers.
The lithography machine is currently only manufactured by ASML in the Netherlands. For some reasons, the lithography machine cannot be sold to Huawei.
So after Huawei designs the chip, it is handed over to Feidian and other chip manufacturers for production, and then the produced chip is handed over to Huawei.
However, as everyone knows about the latter thing, Huawei itself is still short of chips. How can Star Group buy chips from Huawei? "
"Then tell me, isn't the Star Group buying chips from Huawei? Is it Huawei buying chips from the Star Group? You know, the Star Group has also suffered a supply cut, and there is also no extra chips to sell."
"Boldly guess, perhaps, Huawei really bought chips from Xingchen. Don't forget that Xingchen is a miracle company. If it is not possible for other companies, it seems reasonable to put it on Xingchen."
There are many discussions like this on the Internet.
But most people don't believe in such speculations, because based on the actual situation, the possibility of realization is too small.
Soon, someone put forward a new guess.
"It is very likely that Huawei will cooperate with the two group companies of Xingchen to prepare a lithography machine belonging to China."
When this conjecture came out, it immediately drew everyone's praise.
It is a pity that some people soon jumped out and sang the opposite. Well, it can’t be said to be the opposite. It just explained a fact about a current China Enterprise.
"Here, I have to tell the fact that the lithography machine independently produced by China Xia can only produce 90-nanometer-level chips at present, which is 5 nanometers from the top level, which is still several grades short. Catching up with ASML is not something that can be done in a short time.
Companies such as Huawei and Xingchen that need a lot of high-end chips, might as well take advantage of the deadline to purchase the required chips, otherwise, in the future, I am afraid that there is really nothing they can do. "
Before this incident, many netizens believed that since Huawei can develop 5-nanometer-level chips, the level of lithography machines produced should not be far behind. As long as China Enterprise cooperates, it can catch up.
However, this netizen's words made many people unbelievable.
After they learned the real situation on the Internet, they all fell silent.
To be honest, China's chip manufacturing level has always been catching up and has never stopped.
More than 30 years ago, Huaxia faced an important multiple-choice question.
On one side is the happy life index of the Chinese people, on the other side is the development of high-end technology.
Later, Huaxia chose the Happy Life Index of the Huaxia People, and this led to the current happy life.
After catching up with the people's happiness index, China has never stopped for high-end technology, and has been trying desperately to catch up for decades.
It is already quite remarkable for China to have independent intellectual property rights to produce 90-nanometer-level chips.
But what is great is great, and in the end it is still controlled by others.
Now, we can only hope to rely on everyone's cooperation to see if we can catch up with the international leading level.
Speaking of it, it has been 12 years since the first 90-nanometer-level lithography machine, but Huaxia still can only use 90-nanometer-level lithography machines, which also reflects the difficulties in the development of lithography machines from the side.
The more netizens know, the more they doubt whether Huawei and Xingchen can produce 5-nanometer-level lithography machines.
As a result, the announcement issued by the Star Group at noon was full of doubt.
For a time, the entire network was full of despair, as if leaving Feidian and them, China would enter a period of retrogression.
"Hey, is the virtual helmet of the Star Group really out of print? Is the happiness brought by the virtual game that you will never be able to enjoy again?"
"That's not to say ~EbookFREE.me~ at least you can experience virtual games in the virtual game experience center. I am afraid that after the virtual helmet is damaged, will there be a chance to repair it?"
"For virtual games, in fact, everyone can rest assured, as long as you pay attention, the use of virtual helmets is still no problem. After three years and five years, I believe that Star Group should have solved the chip problem by then."
"That's right, we have to believe in Xingchen Group. As long as we persist for a few years, with the strength of Xingchen Group, studying lithography machines is not a matter of hand."
"Yes, don't worry about unreasonably. I hope that Huawei and Xingchen will cooperate to solve the problem of lithography machines. In three years and five years, we can afford to wait."
"Isn't it the five-nanometer process? I believe they can research it out. Starting today, I will support the products of these two companies."
"Haha, I have supported the products of these two companies a long time ago. Both of them are conscientious companies. Supporting them can also be considered as an addition to the development of their own lithography machines."
