Chapter 390 Mastering Radio Frequency
But after Shen Fei posted the Weibo message, he put his phone aside without a smile on his face.
In the office, Vice President Liu Fang sat opposite him, holding a document that the supply chain department had just compiled.
This is their comprehensive assessment report on the supply chain, with each page filled with dense data and risk levels.
This is the most serious Transsion has ever taken in the face of sanctions.
"Boss, this time is a little different."
Liu Fang was also a little flustered: "The United States is joining forces with Japan and the Netherlands to restrict the export of all semiconductor raw materials to our country."
Japan's JSR and Shin-Etsu Chemicals monopolize 80% of the global market for photoresist powder, specialty gases, high-purity targets, photomasks, substrates, polishing slurries, cleaning solutions... The domestic semiconductor industry is heavily reliant on imports for all these materials.
Shen Fei glanced at the document; most of its contents could be produced using telepathy, but alas…
"This time, America's target is not just industry, but all of China's semiconductor industry."
America knows we can survive, but what about other Chinese companies?
Huaxin International and other semiconductor companies will have to shut down their production lines if they can't get raw materials.
Transmission can survive on its own, but you can't ignore them...
So this time, their goal is to make those companies earn less money, just to cause us trouble.
Sitting in his chair, Shen Fei understood the layout of American policy: "You, Transsion, have the ability to solve the supply chain problem, then you truly have the ability..."
If I can't beat you, then I'll target someone else!
"This is using righteousness to pressure us."
"Yes." Liu Fang nodded, then shook her head. "I have to say, their tactic is very effective."
There are already rumors circulating in the industry that Transsion only cares about itself and doesn't care about the fate of other Chinese companies.
They say Transsion has domestic alternatives, but they're unwilling to share them.
Shen Fei smiled again, but this smile was cold.
"Moral blackmail. The US hasn't even made a move yet, and they're already fighting amongst themselves."
Liu Fang didn't say anything. After all, this is a disadvantage of a populous country; with a large population, all sorts of people will appear...
The information Li Qing gave her had already been edited; some bloggers who took money to do things had been deleted, but the overall comments remained the same...
But why should they give away the technology they developed themselves for free as open source?
Why should we be able to buy foreign technology, but expect to use domestic technology for free?
"Call Li Qing over."
About 10 minutes later, Li Qing pushed open the door and walked in.
As the underhanded tactics began in the United States, she, as the Minister of Publicity, also started investigating the situations of other companies.
"By the way, Liu Fang, how long have those idiots been hoarding the goods on their orders?"
"According to our investigation, Japan's JSR has received a notice from the United States prohibiting all exports to China, or else it will face severe penalties."
The specifics are still unclear; they've never done anything like this before, so…”
Before Shen Fei could finish speaking, Li Qing understood the meaning behind his words: these idiots had no inventory and could only produce for a little over a month at most.
However, this is also good news. After all, based on the results of the previous battles, as long as the methods are tough enough, the United States will be defeated very quickly.
As for opening up Huaxing's technology, it's not that Shenfei looks down on these other domestic manufacturers; their self-developed technologies are at least 28nm.
They have no use for photoresist, and they probably won't purchase equipment for special gases and the like.
"Forget it, instead of giving them some inventory, let's have a proper showdown with the Americans first."
"Boss, what do you mean?!"
A glint flashed in Li Qing's eyes; could what followed be an exhilarating battle?
"Don't worry, they won't succeed this time!"
After the two left, Shen Fei saw the supply chain hazard list that Liu Fang had compiled and opened the system space again...
Unfortunately, no special offers were refreshed this time, and the superconducting technology that had been refreshed before never appeared again, even though he had now accumulated 8 Industry Innovation Points.
However, this time it wasn't about superconductivity; he quickly typed four words into the search bar: radio frequency front-end.
The radio frequency front-end is the general term for the radio frequency circuit between the antenna and the baseband. It is a very critical technology, and most domestic equipment currently needs to rely on imports from abroad. Even Transsion is facing this bottleneck.
This problem has remained unresolved for a long time, but it will finally be solved this time.
Soon, the search results popped up, with dozens of items in total. He slowly looked through them and found power amplifiers, filters, duplexers, antenna switches, and low-noise amplifiers.
Each item is labeled with its applicable frequency band and manufacturing process.
Supports all frequency bands including 2G, 3G, and 4G, and supports carrier aggregation...
The solution is quite complex, but fortunately there is a packaged solution below, a complete RF front-end solution.
Including all the above, it also supports 5G pre-research and is very reasonably priced, requiring only 3 points!
It's only 1 yuan more expensive than the superconducting technology that Shenyang Aircraft Corporation initially got at a 1% discount.
You can feel your heart bleeding. He captured market share in so many countries, only to achieve this little bit of industrial innovation.
However, Shen Fei did not hesitate and clicked "confirm".
After all, this is the key technology.
A flash of white light appeared, and a massive amount of information flooded into Shen Fei's mind. At the same time, a USB flash drive appeared in his hand.
Shen Fei glanced at the technology in his mind and even saw the piezoelectric material formula for the filter, which was a core technology that American companies had monopolized for 10 years.
After exiting the system space, he picked up the internal phone on the table:
"Have Mr. Zhao, the head of the mobile phone RF integration department, come to my office. There's a new project."
They didn't ask what kind of project it was; after all, you could probably guess...
As for where the technology came from?
I guess Mr. Huang has acquired a few more companies somewhere, and he happens to have some experience in this area.
As for photoresist, its formulation is theoretically very complex, containing resin, photosensitizer, solvent, and additives, and the proportion of each component needs to be accurate to one-thousandth.
The production process is more complex, from synthesis to purification, from coating to curing, each step requires precise control of temperature and humidity.
The photoresist produced by other domestic companies is subpar, but these other companies have little to do with Transsion. All of Transsion's technology is self-developed; they only produce low-end photoresist to support these few companies...
His industrial upgrading ideas still have a place to be used, so there's no need to focus on these things.
Fortunately, the authorities are taking action. Since they are exporting photoresist, China will continue to pursue its agricultural and high-tech paths, which infuriates many people in the United States who are starting to curse again...
Conference Room, U.S. Department of Commerce:
"Soybeans again, fruit again... what other tricks do they have up their sleeves?"
"These rabbits have really figured out how to get our hands on!"
"But boss, this tactic is very effective; protests have started again in the agricultural states..."
