In the field of technology, the development of the United States has gained a lot of voice with its own advantages, and American chips have also gained a lot of market share. But now, Intel has been reported to have lay off nearly a thousand employees. Faced with the latest sanctions implemented by the United States, Bill Gates has had to admit defeat, because the implementation of this measure will make the development advantages of American chips a thing of the past.
In our lives, the application scope of chips is very wide, involving the automotive industry, including various electronic smart products that people usually use. Although the scale of chips is not very large, the role played by chips cannot be ignored.
The industries and industrial chains related to chips are also very large-scale, and there are many links that need to be gone through in chip manufacturing. In addition to completing the chip design first, and then to the later chip manufacturing, many of the technology products used behind this have also been polished for many years. When the
chip is manufactured and is about to enter commercial use, there are many links that have been experienced, and the number of suppliers related to it is also very large. The supply chain of
chips can not only bring many job opportunities, but also bring good economic benefits. Only after the globalization of chips, the demand for chips will be solved to the greatest extent, and the problem of chip famine will no longer exist.
The so-called chip famine refers to the situation where chip manufacturers are in short supply after the global chip demand continues to rise. Since many industries need to use chips, if the supply of chips cannot keep up with the demand, there will inevitably be problems in the operation of the industry, which will also affect people's normal life. Therefore, in the face of chip famine, we must try our best to solve it, not personal matters.
The best way to solve chip famine is to globalize chips, rather than the fact that some countries or countries dominate in the chip field. Dominance may bring about technological hegemony. When technological hegemony is used for monopoly purposes or suppressing other people's purposes, it will bring extremely bad consequences.
However, when many countries and regions around the world are committed to chip globalization, the biggest obstacle is the United States. In order to achieve the goal of local chipization, the United States has taken multiple rounds of measures. Among these measures, the first thing American companies restrict is the domestic Huawei companies.
The reason why the United States can restrict Huawei companies and also modify chip rules is because the United States itself has its own technological hegemony. The United States uses its technological hegemony and its development advantages in the chip field to suppress domestic Huawei companies and other high-tech companies. After the chip rules were constantly modified, not only high-tech companies outside the United States complained, but even high-tech companies in the United States felt very helpless. The United States' method of achieving its goal through technological hegemony will instead cause the development of the global semiconductor chip market to fall into an embarrassing situation, and further lead to the intensification of chip famine.
Under the background of chip famine, the global chip market has become in short supply. In order to solve the problem of insufficient chip supply, many manufacturers will even try their best to find ways to provide mid- and low-end chips.
Because now, mid- and low-end chips can meet the development needs of many countries, but among high-end chips, the prices of many chips are being hyped up. When many customers buy chips, they naturally can only shake their heads helplessly when they see such a high price.The final big reversal in the chip market of
, that is, the chip price has dropped rapidly and sales have also seen a sharp decline, which will also cause major chip manufacturers to have great complaints, but the culprit behind this is the United States. The higher the price of
chip, the more profits the major chip manufacturers will be able to make. Once the chip price drops and sales declines, the development of major chip manufacturers will have to hover on the verge of bankruptcy.
From the development of the general environment at that time, it can be seen that the chip supply cut measures implemented by the United States have caused the chip industry to decline in sales and a sharp drop in prices in the future. But even though the development of the chip industry is not ideal at present, the United States is still sticking to its own behavior and continuing to implement new regulations.
In this new regulation, many Chinese companies have been included in the restricted list. Perhaps in the eyes of the United States, by implementing such regulations, Chinese companies can no longer overcome their technology and will even continue to be willing to purchase chips from American companies.
But what surprised the United States was that after the United States implemented this new regulation, not only did not allow Chinese companies to increase the import of chips from American companies, but instead affected the development of local American companies.
After the implementation of the new regulations, many American semiconductor companies suffered huge losses overnight. Among them, the losses included AMD. Because the decline was very large, the losses behind AMD are also a pity.
In addition, Nvidia, Texas Instruments , American Qualcomm and other companies have no way to escape from this new regulation. Even Intel, which has been stolen by the United States, has dropped by 5.37% of its market value, among which, the amount of evaporation is also very large.
In this way, the development of the US semiconductor market has indeed caught many American semiconductor companies off guard. Faced with such losses, although American semiconductor companies have complained, they have no way to change the status quo.
and even, for American semiconductor companies, some companies also have certain cooperative relationships with Huawei. If they cannot continue to cooperate with Huawei companies, the order volume of these companies will drop significantly, and the chip export volume will naturally decrease. Although American semiconductor companies have sufficient chip supply, if they cannot export them in time, they will be affected by these accumulated inventory, which will naturally make many companies feel very troubled.
After seeing such developments in American semiconductor companies, the outside world has even said that the original development advantages of American semiconductor companies no longer exist.
Because, according to the latest news, Intel, which is praised by the United States, will have a layoff plan next. In this layoff plan, the number of employees involved reaches nearly 1,000, which is also Intel's largest layoff plan.
After the news came out, not only many companies were shocked, but even the United States would be very surprised. Intel has absolute advantages in the development of the CUP market, especially in the US's local chip development plan, Intel is also the most important force.
Among the subsidies given to TSMC and Intel by the United States, the subsidies received by Intel are actually higher. The US attitude towards TSMC and Intel can clearly see that Intel is the company that is valued.
plus Intel has the advantage of following a green channel. Qualcomm, as an American technology company, cannot get such treatment. But Intel, which makes Qualcomm very envious, has reported a layoff plan, which shows that Intel has been affected to a certain extent in this chip supply cut plan.
As a technology giant, Intel's biggest development advantage is that it has a strong enough team and its talent scale is very considerable. However, once the layoff plan is implemented, it may cause a lot of losses to Intel.
But even if Intel has to face such losses, it has to make a decision to lay off employees. After all, after losing the free supply of chips to the Chinese market, Intel must also reduce its development scale in order to continue to move forward in the long run in the chip field.
In fact, the reason why Intel has such a layoff plan is that is not because Intel's overall development strength has been reduced, but because the current development environment of the chip market has undergone great changes. Intel is helpless to make layoff plans.
In Intel's chip export volume, the amount of chips won by the Chinese market has always been higher. The Chinese market has a certain dependence on American chips, and at the same time, it can also bring more revenue contribution to Intel.
However, under the influence of the chip supply cut policy, Intel cannot freely provide its own chips, and the chips cannot be exported to the Chinese market. Under such influence, Intel can only continuously reduce its business scale.
Moreover, affected by the US chip supply cut policy, US chips have a not very good image, and their trust and credibility are constantly being reduced, which has also promoted many countries and regions around the world to a certain extent to embark on the development path of reducing their dependence on US chips.
Among them, the European market will also build its own local semiconductor industry chain in the future. The investment amount of the European market will reach 43 billion euros. In addition to this, India and South Korea are also actively moving towards the development path of local chipization and have set the main goals of self-sufficiency.
Looking at the development of my country's chip industry, we also realize how important it is to build our own chip industry chain. In terms of chip consumption, my country is also relatively large. If it continues to have a great dependence on foreign markets, it will inevitably lead to the development of domestic companies in the chip field and are restricted everywhere.
Previously, the US semiconductor market was indeed able to provide a lot of chips, but it also exposed the fact that my country is boring in the chip field. Because of the boring, Huawei companies and other Chinese companies have been included in the entity blacklist.
and even, they will not be able to get the chips they need normally in the future. The difficulties faced by Huawei companies at present have also sounded a wake-up call for many Chinese companies in China, and made other Chinese companies realize that they should reduce their dependence on American chips and build their own chip industry chain.
It is worth mentioning that the number of new enterprises in my country is also very large. Among the fastest growing enterprises in the world, most of them come from China.
According to relevant information, the number of chip imports in my country has also decreased significantly. In the future, the development of domestic chips in my country will be smoother and the dependence on imports of American technology companies will continue to be reduced.
In addition, when the United States implemented the chip supply cut policy, Bill Gates realized that something was wrong and issued a warning, because Bill Gates realized that if the chip cannot be sold to the Chinese market, it will inevitably bring bad consequences.
Because implementing chip supply cuts on the Chinese market will not make the Chinese market more reliant on American chips, but will instead make the Chinese market realize how important self-sufficiency chips are. Chinese companies will continue to overcome related technologies, and the US semiconductor market will suffer the biggest loss in the end.
This means that the chip supply cut policy implemented by the United States is to shoot itself in the foot. Judging from the current development of American chips, there is indeed an unsatisfactory situation. In contrast, the development of the domestic chip market also shows how correct Bill Gates' statement was at that time.
has to admit that the United States can indeed leave many Chinese companies behind in the chip field, but my country's development in the semiconductor field has also been circulating a lot of good news. Only by constantly improving its own technical strength can we minimize our dependence on American chips.
Although Huawei companies have been subject to sanctions from the United States, Huawei companies have not easily chosen to give up. Instead, they continue to increase R&D and investment, and make more preparations for the next talent reserve.
Huawei's achievements in 5G are also well known. Therefore, when Huawei companies face these sanctions, although there will be a certain way out, they will also clearly realize the importance of "de-beautification". Huawei's development in the system has created its own Hongmeng system when the back path is blocked.
Hongmeng system was supported by many Huawei users at the beginning of its creation. The Hongmeng system has now developed to the second generation. Although it is also full of constraints in the chip field, Huawei has achieved its development goal of getting out of the predicament through the Nanniwan plan.
What is more worth mentioning is that DJI companies and SMIC are also listed on the US entity blacklist one after another. , but DJI enterprises have sufficient confidence in development, and DJI enterprises have also obtained a large number of technical patents. When the United States cannot find a substitute, DJI enterprises can also fight back against the US sanctions and bans.
That is, to increase the price of its own product in the US market, DJI has sufficient technical strength to develop in the field of drones, so the United States will not be able to win DJI.
SMIC also has strong strength. When facing such sanctions, SMIC is also trying its best to solve the problem, and it also has a courage to become more and more courageous. If SMIC does not have enough strength, then it will be at a loss when facing sanctions.
Therefore, it is indeed very important to master core technologies in your hands, and technology upgrades are inseparable from R&D and investment. It is not an accidental factor that SMIC and DJI companies can break away from the clutches of US control, but an important manifestation of their own strength.
Therefore, from DJI's development, many domestic technology companies can also realize how important it is to master core technology in their hands. Although in the chip field, there have been a situation of being choked, there will indeed be many difficulties in taking the path of domestic chip production.
But these difficulties are not important factors that defeat Chinese companies. As long as Chinese companies can unite and promote the development of domestic chipization, they will inevitably fail to complete the US local chipization plan. SMIC also extended a helping hand in time after Huawei was in trouble. The unity and cooperation among Chinese technology companies will inevitably better promote the development of domestic chipization.In the competition in the field of science and technology, China is also constantly narrowing the gap between the United States. Many domestic technology companies have also made important contributions to this. Of course, what cannot be ignored is that major domestic universities, as well as some scientific research institutions, universities and research institutions have also made important contributions.
As talent training bases, major universities have provided important talents to many domestic technology companies. Scientific research institutions can maximize the strength of talents, and scientific research institutions have also spread a lot of good news in the semiconductor field.
With the continuous technological competition, if the United States continues to implement chip supply cuts, or uses the advantages of technological hegemony in its hands to achieve its goals, it will eventually embark on an irreversible path. If Chinese companies can maintain their original intentions, they believe that the development of domestic chipization will be just around the corner.
In short, what Chinese companies need to do is to build their own chip industry chain and promote the development of chip domesticization. After reducing their dependence on American chips, I believe that the situation of Chinese companies in the chip field will be solved in the future, and domestic companies can also bring more hope to the development of the semiconductor field.
