SMIC EUV lightning machine negotiations?

Affected Some time ago, CEO Liangmeng Song resignation, SMIC's share price dropped by a big wobbles. But on December 30, SMIC H share price increased by more than 16%, and the market value of SMIC has risen by 16.7 billion. The next day, SMIC's share price has soared 8.33%, which is remarkable. About SMIC market capitalization rose reason, there is news that is affecting the imminent negotiations by EUV lithography machine. Once the EUV lithography machine hand, domestic chip is expected to open up 5nm. Not long ago there was news sources, SMIC will seek opportunities to start negotiations with the Netherlands on ASML EUV lithography problems, hoping to purchase EUV lithography machine. It is reported that negotiations brokered people, is the recent return to SMIC's Jiang Shangyi. Perhaps this is why, SMIC insisted invite reason Jiang Shangyi regression. Jiang Shangyi TSMC was the central figure, not only has a rich experience, prestige in the semiconductor industry is also high. SMIC and ASML conversation, a great probability is facilitated by Jiang Shangyi. Currently, SMIC mass production process has come to 14nm, is not only to expand production capacity. SMIC second generation N + 1 process, can also be a small amount of trial production, mass production is expected to achieve risk in 2021. SMIC N + 1 of the second generation process, although the chips themselves are not 7nm process, but the result was similar with 7nm. At the same time, according to the letter of resignation exposure Liangmeng Song displayed in the upper 3nm 5nm, SMIC also ready. It is reported that SMIC 3nm 5nm and the core of the 8 major items of technology has been orderly, just waiting for the arrival of EUV lithography machine, you can enter full-scale development phase. That is, once EUV lithography hand, SMIC will be expected to overcome the problem of 5nm to lead the homemade chips to catch up with TSMC, Samsung. As a result, the market value of SMIC several days growth. However, you want to buy ASML's EUV lithography machine easier said than done, to bypass the United States of stonewalling. 2018, SMIC will be successful order a EUV lithography machine to ASML, and agreed to be delivered in early 2019. However, the matter eventually in the United States repeatedly put pressure on the government of the Netherlands, there is no audio. So far, ASML EUV lithography machine of this has not been to the plant. Therefore, SMIC and ASML talk about success if true, should the case against the US pressure, is not a small problem. EUV lithography production complex, a huge amount of work, from production to delivery takes about a year, during the year, there may be many unexpected problems occur, worrying. However, despite a lot of difficulties, still want to be able to buy SMIC EUV lithography machine, led the domestic chip breakthrough overseas monopoly, China's chip industry to ensure safe and controlled. Do you think the possibility of SMIC buy EUV lithography machine big? Editor in charge: Tzh, Read more
