Chapter 367: The Target is Closer
Li Yuan is gradually building a foundation of trust with the people around him. For example, Shen Anna, who had been marginalized before, has slowly started to do things.
When I was with Shen Anna before, it was more like some kind of relationship constraining us. We both needed each other, and then we got together.
There is no emotion or resonance at all, it is purely instinct that mediates between the two.
Only now did Li Yuan truly discover the advantages of Shen Anna. Some people are born beauties.
She is willing to show off and can conquer others at will.
It was not until Yu Yue brought Guo Meng home that Li Yuan temporarily put his work aside.
Zhou Juan and Li Wanhe prepared a lot of things in advance, and even gave gifts to Guo Meng's parents to express their gratitude.
Even Jiang Yiling pulled Guo Meng aside and said a lot of words of thanks and made many promises, acting like a good friend.
After all, Li Yuan did something wrong to others, and they all felt guilty.
At the dinner table, Li Yuan sincerely toasted Guo Meng's parents and once again expressed his gratitude for this matter.
Guo Meng's parents would definitely have nothing to say. This was Li Yuan, and his whole family was with him. The face they gave him was already big enough.
Only Guo Meng acted a little cold, as if he had suffered a great trauma.
Guo Meng spent his time peacefully from coming here at ten o'clock in the morning to leaving at four o'clock in the afternoon.
After he left, Zhou Juan sighed. How could she not see that Guo Meng was in a bad mood.
"Xiao Yuan, your company should treat Guo Meng better in the future."
Li Yuan said, "It's already very good. Now I am the second highest paid person in the entire Qingtian Group. Besides, didn't you just give me a gift worth several million?"
Before leaving, Zhou Juan stuffed a lot of things into her.
Not to mention the various gold jewelry, there were also the supplements that Li Yuan had specially collected for them, most of which he took out. Jiang Yiling also gave Guo Meng several million-level jewelry. All in all, it was at least six or seven million.
Zhou Juan rolled her eyes and said, "Is your life only worth that much? It's obvious that they are not satisfied. Give them some more compensation."
Li Yuan said helplessly: "She is not dissatisfied because the gifts she sent are too few."
"What else can it be? Isn't she fine now? Apart from this, how else can she be compensated?"
“…”
Only my mother didn’t realize that Guo Meng’s resentful little look could not be compensated by money.
It's almost the same if you remove the money.
That night, when Li Yuan was at home, Guo Meng called him.
"Many investors have asked us to reopen the subscription channel. I don't want to be too idle in the company. What do you think?"
Now Guo Meng is the general manager of Kingkong Capital and can report directly to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "That's meaningless. The current market is not good. If you go in, you will just get someone else to take over. Let the company do some research and come up with a few fixed financial products with a fixed interest rate between 3 and 5 points. If someone is willing to buy, let them buy. The purchase limit for a single product is 100,000."
"But we don't have relevant experience, and if money comes, we have areas where we can invest."
"All that money will be used to help new stocks go public. I'll compile a list of related companies for you."
There are many companies that have invested in Qingtian Group, and there are also many consumer industries that Li Yuan needs to support.
It would also be beneficial for him to push these companies to go public.
There is no need to compete with the old players in the market, just do a good job in running your new company.
As for Kingkong Capital, it is just playing a supporting role and can absorb tens of billions or hundreds of billions of funds to maintain operations. Other things can be dealt with after the interest rate hike is over.
The big domestic capitals have not suffered yet.
Now their funds are just restricted, so nominally they don’t lose much.
But their capital costs will continue to rise until the costs crush them, and then they will despair.
Just like the US dollar interest rate hike, it will not give in until it can no longer raise it further.
Li Yuan then took another look at the accounts of the Qingtian Group and found that there were still hundreds of billions of dollars left that had no place to be spent.
I really don’t understand…how some companies owe 1.9 trillion.
Owing money is also a skill. So far, Li Yuan has paid off all his debts.
The shares of Kingkong Capital that were originally mortgaged to the five major banks were cashed in for nearly 900 billion yuan, repaying the principal of 180 billion yuan plus several billion yuan in interest.
Afterwards, the money was used to repay the 300 billion yuan owed previously, as well as the more than 200 billion yuan borrowed by Qingtian Group.
There was also a gambling agreement with Tang Jianjun , in which a large amount of chips were transferred to them. In the end, 80% of the profits that exceeded the principal were also his, which totaled more than 300 billion.
Even though BiXin Mall is losing money, even though the Qinghua project has cost more than 10 billion yuan, even though Qixing Automobile has burned nearly 30 billion yuan, and even though it has been continuously supporting and adding new projects in the past two years, there is still 700 billion yuan in the account of Qingtian Group.
These are all of Li Yuan’s nominal assets. Every year, BiXin Mall loses about 20 billion yuan, almost all of which is lost on employee salaries.
The Qinghua project has invested 10 billion yuan, and it is just the beginning. Another 10 billion yuan will be invested next year.
The most important point is that even if you succeed, you will still lose money when you produce products.
Compared with EUV lithography machines, this high-powered flying brick mode has a very low yield rate.
For the same 10,000 wafers, the yield rate can reach 85% by controlling the light source through the EUV lithography machine, and after segmentation, hundreds of thousands of qualified high-precision process chips can be produced.
If people want 5nm, then it is 5nm. It is normal to sell a chip for five or eight hundred yuan, and the overall profit can be made.
But it is different here. For the same 10,000 wafers, after screening, the light source can reach the level of extreme ultraviolet light, absolutely no more than 5%. In addition, the yield rate is not high, so in the end, only a few thousand 5nm chips, tens of thousands of 7nm chips, tens of thousands of 12nm chips, tens of thousands of 14nm chips...
If the process exceeds 14nm, using this kind of equipment will result in a loss, because there are too many competing products on the market, and they are basically all priced at a discount. The price of a 28nm chip may be only 30 or 50 yuan, which is not enough to cover the electricity bill, not to mention the operating and maintenance costs.
As for 48nm, 96nm, and 128nm, the wholesale price is only a dozen yuan each, suitable for various elderly phones, learning machines, children's phone watches...
The low-end market supports many people, and it is impossible for Li Yuan to engage in dumping, so he can only take the loss on himself.
The price-performance ratio is definitely not good, but now that I have it, I don’t have to worry about it.
Others will be willing to sell it to you.
If we calculate based on the price of 800 yuan for a 5nm chip, if it were Wanji Electric, the cost might be only 300 yuan, but if it were them, the cost might be 2,000 yuan.
It's only for Hua Wei, who can afford it. Li Yuan's own Honor doesn't have enough brand power, so he can forget about using it for the time being.
That thing really costs money, and it doesn't mean much.
Just pick up some 14nm or 28nm ones and use them.
Qixing Automobile might be able to be used, it's expensive and it can help spread the cost.
Once ASML chooses to lift the ban on the export of high-end lithography machines to China, this project will have no meaning at all.
However, 5nm is the limit of what can be controlled at present, and it is unlikely that the technology will be upgraded in the future, so it can only be increased through other means.
Such as arrangement and design.
Whether it is 4nm or 3nm, there is hardly any significant increase in .
There are many future directions, such as quantum lithography machines.
But that requires changing the carrier. The current chip carrier is silicon wafer, and other carriers have not yet been explored. Perhaps it needs to be synthesized, or perhaps some natural element has not been thoroughly studied... Anyway, it is not a project that can be completed in the near future.
Technological development has reached a bottleneck, and this is also the beginning of problems in the global economy.
Without new growth points, everyone can only rush around madly on the original track. Not only will they not make money, but a large number of companies will also die.
Only with growth can the whole world make money.
In this stock game... a large number of people are bound to die.
Similarly, this is also the fundamental reason why China and the United States are betting on new energy vehicles.
Although this track is old, it still has great potential.
In the game of stock market, even a mosquito leg is worth a lot of money.
What Li Yuan is currently doing is to seek incremental growth within the existing stock and allow funds to circulate quickly, which will at least be better than others.
Jiang Yiling coaxed Li Jingcheng, came to the study, and accompanied Li Yuan to look at the new projects of Qingtian Group for a while.
After a while, she said, "Am I too lazy? I haven't worked for many years. Do you want me to find a job?"
"No way... I think you've been the most exhausted in the past few years. At least I'd rather go to work than deal with family relationships. It's hard to imagine how you can do such trivial things well."
Jiang Yiling laughed: "It's actually very simple. Just be careful and pay attention to every detail. I'm different from you. You don't want to waste your energy on trivial matters. If you use your energy to do other things, you will gain more. When you are with your family, you can't consider the benefits."
Maybe Zhou Juan would sometimes nag about something being too expensive, or read some chicken soup from somewhere, saying how to raise a child, or if the child behaves abnormally, is there something missing...
Everyone has negative emotions, including Jiang Yiling.
But she couldn't cause trouble for Li Yuan, so she would restrain herself from doing anything.
She only knows that everyone in the family is nice to her, so she must also sacrifice some emotions to resonate with things that conflict with her psychologically.
Otherwise, Jiang Yiling could have argued with Zhou Juan about the toxic chicken soup issues as a graduate student.
But the price of arguing is that others will feel uncomfortable, but you will not benefit from it.
She often puts aside her emotions and talks to Zhou Juan about these issues, using the gentlest means to persuade the other party.
Li Yuan said: "Am I particularly vulgar?"
"How can there be such a thing as making money? There is nothing vulgar about it. Life should have a goal, but I will be happier if the goal is closer to me."
"Then...how about we go take some wedding photos? I'm free lately, so let's have some fun and relax."
