Once you went to the mall to buy a Samsung mobile phone or Adidas sneakers, you will find that its place of origin is not "Made in China", but "Made in Indonesia" or "Made in Vietnam".
In recent years, due to the sharp increase in China's labor costs in recent years, some labor-intensive industries including Samsung, Adidas, Nike and others are gradually withdrawing from China.
The reason is that, on the surface, the cost advantage in China has been sharply reduced, but in reality, it is the continuous emergence of alternative products in China. It has intensified corporate marketing and replaced it with the rise of the "Chinese team". Made".
As one of the world news in 2020, the short-term interruption of Huawei chips has also pressed the "slow" or "pause" button on Huawei's 5G growth momentum. For a while, who else will Huawei's next high-end chip supplier? Become a hot topic in society.
It is understood that the current semiconductor chip crisis caused by Huawei’s US chip ban has spread to the automotive industry. Insufficient chip supply, especially high-end chips in short supply, will cause semiconductor chip prices to fluctuate, and it will inevitably hinder car production and research and development.
On December 4, there were media reports that FAW-Volkswagen and SAIC-Volkswagen had ceased production due to the tight global semiconductor supply. As soon as the news came out, it shocked the auto industry. After all, North and South Volkswagen is the leading brand in the auto industry. If the production of chips is stopped, the loss can be imagined.
While searching for semiconductor chips in various industries, a car company not only built its own semiconductor industry chain, but also fully guaranteed self-supply, and there was some margin that could be marketed. On December 2, BYD Semiconductor was awarded the "2020 Global 500 Unicorn Companies" and ranked in the top 100 in the list of unicorn companies.
Although our country is facing chip dilemma, it does not mean that we will not be able to manufacture chips in the later period. Before Wang Chuanfu confidently stated that we will be able to make chips, which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to the development of chips. In his opinion, as long as everyone works together, then we can definitely succeed.
It is reported that BYD has entered the semiconductor field in 2002, with business covering power semiconductors, smart control ICs, smart sensors, optoelectronic semiconductors, manufacturing and services. It has five major R&D and manufacturing bases in the country, namely Shenzhen (R&D and manufacturing) , Huizhou (manufacturing), Ningbo (wafer manufacturing), Changsha (wafer manufacturing), Xi'an (R&D). At present, its independent research and development of automotive-grade MCU chips have accumulated more than 5 million vehicles installed.
The alarm bell for the mobile phone industry and the automobile industry has been sounded, and attention must be paid to the layout of upstream and downstream industries, otherwise it will be controlled by others.
It is worth noting that in the ascendant era of smart cars, BYD has already supported Huawei, and the two parties have carried out extensive cooperation in their respective areas of expertise to make their respective industries more brilliant.
Relying on Huawei's excellent 5G technical strength and BYD's excellent car-building capabilities, the two parties have begun to achieve global attention in driverless cars and intelligent driving cars. The world's first model equipped with 5G functions will not be long. Meet people all over the world, when the "Star of Hope" jointly produced by the two domestic technology giants, Huawei and BYD, will once again shock the world.
It is reported that this cooperation between Huawei and BYD is supported by national policies. my country has introduced many preferential policies to ensure the better and faster development of related industries. According to statistics, our output of integrated circuits in the first half of the year reached more than 100 billion, an increase of 16.4% compared to previous years. More companies are willing to enter this field.
It should be said that the dilemma of the output of low value-added products in the past has changed. Today's "China POWER" has begun to get involved in more high-tech and high-end manufacturing fields. Huawei and BYD are just some of the representatives of many outstanding Chinese companies, and this also means The pace of "Intelligent Manufacturing in China" will not stop. According to statistics from the China Semiconductor Industry Association, in the first half of 2020, my country's integrated circuit industry sales reached 353.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16.1%. Among them, the sales of my country's integrated circuit design industry in the first half of the year were 149.06 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 23.6%. The sales of the manufacturing industry in the first half of the year were 96.6 billion yuan, an increase of 17.8% year-on-year;Industry sales in the first half of the year were 108.24 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.9%. The scale of my country's integrated circuit industry is expected to reach 876.6 billion yuan in 2020, a year-on-year increase of 15.92%.
Professor Wei Shaojun, Chairman of the Integrated Circuit Design Branch of the China Semiconductor Industry Association, also pointed out in an interview with the media, “If you do everything yourself, you will completely close yourself, and the closure will lead to backwardness. The bottom line of industrial development is to consider the industrial chain. However, in addition to safety, we must also consider the coordination of production and development. The most important thing is to strengthen cooperation in all aspects of China’s high-quality enterprises."
