The United States expressed its attitude, TSMC was disliked, and its efforts were in vain!
In order to cater to the United States, TSMC has released a signal to build a factory in the United States since last year. There was even news last month that TSMC will expand the scale of its factory construction in the United States, and build at least 6 chip factories in the United States. It also includes a state-of-the-art 3nm factory.
There are two main reasons why TSMC chose to build a factory in the United States. The first is because of subsidies. Since the domestic chip manufacturing industry in the United States is not developed, Americans are worried that their chip companies may be cut off from supplying chips by other countries in the future, so they have issued a number of The chip support plan has invested heavily in encouraging international chip manufacturing giants to build factories in the United States. Under the temptation of the United States, TSMC was naturally moved, and decided to build a factory in the United States.
The second reason is to show loyalty to the United States. Although the domestic chip manufacturing strength in the United States is not particularly strong, the United States has a large number of key technologies for chip manufacturing related equipment. For TSMC, only by courting the United States can the company master advanced semiconductor manufacturing technology at the first time, and then continue to maintain its leading position in the field of chip manufacturing.
However, what TSMC did not expect is that its status in the hearts of Americans is far less high than it thinks. Just recently, the United States expressed its attitude and objected to TSMC's decision to build 6 chip factories in the United States. A representative of the United States emphasized: Currently, the United States is extremely dependent on TSMC to obtain high-end semiconductors. This is a bad signal, and the United States should Actively avoid reliance on a single company or country.
It is not difficult to find that the attitude of the United States towards TSMC is quite contradictory. On the one hand, the United States wants TSMC to drive the development of local chip manufacturing, but on the other hand, the United States is full of vigilance against TSMC. In response to the current situation, many foreign media also admitted frankly: TSMC was put together by the United States! Perhaps TSMC did not expect that it would try its best to meet the needs of the United States, but it was rejected by the United States, and its efforts were in vain.
Regarding the experience of TSMC, many domestic netizens also said: TSMC is not worthy of sympathy for . You know, TSMC's attitude towards and in mainland China and the United States is diametrically opposite.
To treat the United States, TSMC does its best, and even builds the most advanced 3nm chip factory in the United States. What about 's attitude towards the mainland? Although TSMC also released the signal to build a factory in the mainland some time ago, it is the most backward 28nm chip factory. There are even reports that TSMC is trying to grab food from SMIC and try to use its own technological advantages. , with price war to defeat SMIC and other mainland chip manufacturing companies.
Therefore, the experience of TSMC being put together by the United States this time is not worthy of sympathy, because TSMC and have not been with us from beginning to end. In fact, as early as last year, TSMC founder Zhang Zhongmou publicly chorused the Chinese chip manufacturing industry. He said in an interview at the time: is very pessimistic about mainland chip manufacturing, and mainland chip companies should focus on chip design. rather than chip manufacturing.
However, what Zhang Zhongmou did not expect was that his bad-mouthing remarks did not dispel the mainland's determination to enter chip manufacturing. Thanks to the efforts of all parties, SMIC's chip manufacturing technology has advanced by leaps and bounds. Now not only is the yield rate of 14nm chips on par with TSMC, It even breaks the industry iron law that 7nm chips cannot be made without EUV lithography machines.
Zhang Zhongmou said that he is pessimistic about the future of chip manufacturing in mainland China, but the facts have proved that mainland China is advancing bravely in the chip manufacturing sector, and TSMC may not always be able to stay high!
