Wang Yi knows the face of the empire best.

With the current development momentum of Xingyi mobile phone, it is inevitable that it will be blocked and suppressed in a few years.

Wang Yi didn't want to be completely blocked or stuck, so he could only make arrangements in advance.

Chip research and development, wafer fabs, photoresist, and even EDA software, etc., all require recruiting talents, investing funds, and planning in advance.

If we wait until we are blocked and blocked before planning these things, it will be too late.

It is true that the EUV lithography machine is very difficult to do. It cannot be done. It cannot be done at all.

But the impact is very limited, and ordinary DUV lithography machines are enough.

Recruiting semiconductor talents such as Liang Lao and developing the N+2 process, through multiple exposure technology, the DUV lithography machine can also produce 7nm chips or even 5nm chips, which is enough.

As for 3nm chips, that will happen in 2023. Compared with 5nm chips, they are not much better.

What's more, more than ten years later, there may not be other solutions.

In terms of scientific and technological breakthroughs, our speed and efficiency rank first in the world.

Although the field of lithography machines is still lagging behind, it has overtaken it in many aspects and is far ahead.

Ultra-high voltage power grid, 2,600-ton large shield machine, laser weapons, drone technology, quantum technology, hypersonic missiles, wind tunnel technology, electromagnetic weapons...

Take any of these things and the West is helpless!

The 2,600-ton large-scale shield machine like the Pilot is far ahead. Even Europe and the United States cannot do it, only we can!

Why do so many public shepherd dogs only know how to talk with EUV lithography machines?

Because apart from EUV lithography machines, they don’t know what else to brag about.

After all, with the rise of all domestic products, fewer and fewer Western countries are leading, while more and more are lagging behind.

It is precisely for this reason that ten years later, the dominance of the iPhone will be shaken, overturned, and replaced by domestic mobile phones.

Porsche, BBA, Toyota, Honda and other car brands have also been gradually replaced by domestically produced cars.

The simplest thing is that in the previous life in 2018, most people with a budget of more than 300,000 yuan bought BBA, and those with a budget of more than 200,000 yuan bought Toyota and Honda, and rarely considered domestically produced cars.

But in 2023, whether the budget is more than 300,000 yuan or more than 200,000 yuan, most people will consider BYD, Wenjie, Great Wall, Geely, Ideal, Xiaopeng, NIO...

On the contrary, the BBA price of more than 300,000 yuan has been reduced to more than 200,000 yuan, and it is still not selling well.

In any field, as long as China achieves a breakthrough from zero to one, it will easily reach 100!

Even the most difficult EUV lithography machine has hope of overtaking in a corner. At least the lithography factory has a solution.

All I can say is that the future is bright but the road is tortuous.

After thinking about it, Wang Yi's train of thought was interrupted.

I don't know when Song Sining's softness came to her mouth...

This girl is really becoming more and more charming.

very nice!

At the same time, the news that AutoNavi’s 150 yuan is permanently free not only appeared on hot searches and caused a sensation on the entire Internet, but also spread among major car enthusiast groups and clubs.

It has even spread offline, so many taxi drivers and truck drivers are spreading the word by word of mouth.

"Lao Zhang, have you heard? Gaode Navigation's big move!"

"Of course I've heard about it. Amap's 200 yuan free navigation forever, and you can get 50 yuan back if you use Chat! I've already paid, Wang Dong is a good person!"

"It's only January 1st, and there's such a good thing happening. This year is destined to go smoothly. I also paid 200, which is a great deal."

"Lao Qian also uninstalled Baidu Navigation and replaced it with Amap Navigation. It costs 150 yuan and has free navigation forever. It's so cool!"

"Old Sun, do you still use your Kay Rucker?"

"Made, don't mention it. I just drove the Kaili De Navigation for two months and it cost me 300 yuan. I'm going to ask the customer service if I can get a refund!"

"Hahaha, you deserve it. Use Kaili De. Isn't Amap 150 permanent free navigation great?"

"Are you going to scold me again?"

"Don't tell me, this chat is really useful. I chat with my wife and send voice messages, and she can read text while she is at work, but WeChat can't!"

"That's right, we are old and rough, and we haven't gone to school much. How can we get used to typing? It's still more convenient to chat. Direct voice messages, and you can also convert text when it's not convenient to read."

"Dr. Wang not only made the navigation almost free, but also brought a good product called Changchao. From now on, we brothers will use Changchao to communicate!"

"Not only that, Happy Fun is also fun. When I can't wait for customers, I just play Happy Fun to kill time."

"Forget it, playing that game is so addictive that I don't even want to solicit customers anymore."

"Hahaha, you can't do this, you can't forget your roots!"

Similar scenes occurred across the country.

Countless Baidu Navigation users and Kaili De Navigation users all switched to Amap Navigation and paid 200 yuan directly.

Compared with Baidu Navigation, which costs RMB 360 per year, and Kaili De Navigation, which costs RMB 1,296 per year, AutoNavi’s permanent free navigation only costs RMB 200, with a rebate of RMB 50. It’s really a great deal, so cheap.

Most car owners don’t hesitate and just rush.

As a result, the number of users of Amap Navigation is increasing by leaps and bounds.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the number of users of AutoNavi exceeded 50 million.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, it directly exceeded 70 million.

Still growing rapidly!

However, contrary to the excellent situation of Xingyi Technology, NavInfo was extremely anxious and held a high-level meeting for a day:

The chairman said solemnly: "Amap offers 200 yuan free navigation on the mobile phone forever, and you can get 50 yuan back if you use Changchat. This behavior not only upsets the paid navigation table, but also ruined the pot."

"There are no surprises. Our NavInfo stock price has dropped to the limit. Everyone is talking about what can be done? We can't open the market tomorrow and continue to drop the limit!"

"this……"

Everyone was silent, with no countermeasures at all.

It fell 10% today. It’s not just a 10% fall, but A-share restrictions. Trading will be suspended if it falls 10%.

But obviously, after the resumption of trading tomorrow, it will continue to fall, drop another 10%, and be suspended again.

The same goes for the day after tomorrow.

10% a day, until the market value fell to half, it was almost stable.

When no one spoke, the vice president sighed: "There is no other way. We can only make an immediate statement to the outside world, saying that NavInfo only provides underlying map data. The navigation fee is still free, which has little impact on us. Our customers are navigation software vendors.

.”

The chairman's face turned dark: "Do you think this is reliable? Will shareholders listen?"

"I..." the vice president was silent, and finally said: "But other than this, what else can I do? There is no other way."

"Hey, let's do more research and see if there are other strategies. If it doesn't work, we can only declare this."

"No, I suggest you make a statement first and curb the panic as soon as possible. If there are other good ways, we will talk about it."

"Okay, let's do it!"

Soon, NavInfo issued a statement, bluntly stating that the incident had little impact on underlying map vendors like NavInfo...

I want to use this to bring back the stock price.

But unfortunately, the public simply ignores this, and many people even don’t understand the relationship between the underlying map provider and the upper-level navigation application provider.

I feel like Gaode Map has overturned the table and smashed the pot. Whether it’s Baidu Navigation or NavInfo, whether it’s the upper-layer application or the underlying map, it’s all over.

No one was making any money anymore, so they all decided to sell.

Sell ​​as soon as the market opens!

Without any surprise, when the U.S. stock market opened that night, Baidu’s stock price plummeted again.

When A-shares opened the next morning, NavInfo also fell to the limit again.

The difference is that this time, it fell to the limit just two minutes after the opening!

"It's over. Such a terrifying speed of the limit drop is probably just the beginning, and it will continue to drop to the limit. Our public statement yesterday has no meaning!"

"We're in big trouble!"

Everyone on SiDitu was in a state of panic, but they didn’t have any strategies to deal with it.

"By the way, are Tencent representatives here? What can they do?"

The chairman couldn't help but said, Goose Factory is the major shareholder and backer.

The vice president sighed: "If you don't come, it seems there is nothing you can do. Moreover, because of the Gaode incident, the stock price of Goose Factory has also fallen by 7%."

The chairman suddenly realized: "Yes, Amap's operation caused Goose Factory's navigation strategy to suffer a critical blow before it even started. The emergence of Changchao has had a big impact on WeChat. It is estimated that there is really no time to take care of us. Alas.

!”

"Yes, how we break the situation next depends on ourselves!"
