The Japanese and German monopolies once sold 1.2 billion, and China broke through the monopoly and no longer sold to foreign countries
Due to the recklessness of the United States, the global wafer industry chain has been greatly impacted, and wafers have become the most concerned topic at present, and in the wafer industry, there is a wafer that has been monopolized by Japan and Germany, and they claim that without their wafers, China's high-speed rail will not be able to run.
At that time, Japan and Germany monopolized the domestic IGBT wafer, occupying 90% of the domestic market share, based on the monopoly advantage, an IGBT wafer sold for 20,000 yuan, earning 1.2 billion euros for China every year, and said that this kind of high-tech wafer China can not use, to keep begging them to sell.
In the face of this situation, China is naturally unwilling to be controlled by others, after all, China's high-speed rail technology has made a breakthrough, it will promote the popularization of high-speed rail, the demand for IGBT wafers will grow sharply, if this wafer continues to be monopolized by Japan and Germany, not only the popularization of high-speed rail needs to pay a huge price, but also faced"Cut off supply"threats.
China focuses on the research and development of its own IGBT chips, just a few years after the successful research and development, in 2014, China's first 8-inch IGBT chip mass production, quickly replaced the imported chips, the popularity of high-speed rail is no longer subject to others, but also greatly reduced the cost, it is reported that at that time the IGBT chip fell by three percent.
In the face of the breakthrough of China's IGBT chips, Japan and Germany changed their previous attitudes, not only said that they would continue to supply, but also quietly organized a large-scale price reduction of 70%, trying to dump at a low price to crush the domestic IGBT chip The action has just begun, but the domestic IGBT chip has persevered, and now the IGBT chip has not only replaced the imported chip in the high-speed rail industry on a large scale, but also has been applied in other industries.
It is worth noting that IGBT chips have also been the bottleneck of the popularization of new energy vehicles in China, when the overseas monopolized the IGBT chips of the new energy vehicle industry, resulting in the high cost of domestic new energy vehicles, as high as nearly 200,000, in order to promote the popularization of new energy vehicles, the huge domestic subsidies for new energy vehicles have a considerable proportion, and the cost of these expensive IGBT chips wins.
At present, BYD, a leader in the field of new energy vehicles, does not believe in IGBT chips. BYD soon acquired a wafer company in Ningbo, did its own IGBT wafer research, and soon developed its own IGBT wafer, its 90 nm process to produce IGBT wafers can reach the world's leading level, so even foreign companies want to buy BYD's IGBT wafers, but BYD founder Wang Chuanfu said that BYD will never sell its IGBT chips to foreign companies.
With the development of domestic IGBT chips, 90% of high-speed railways have adopted domestic IGBT chips, and the share of domestic IGBT chips in the new energy automobile industry has also reached 60%, and with the progress of domestic IGBT chips, the ** of domestic new energy vehicles has also dropped a lot, and new energy vehicles as low as 100,000 yuan have appeared, allowing the Chinese to enjoy the benefits brought by science and technology. New energy vehicles appeared with less than 100,000 yuan, allowing the Chinese people to enjoy the benefits brought by science and technology.
Years of facts have proved that as long as China is willing, China can always quickly break through the blank, such as LCD panels, memory chips, shielding machines, quantum chips and many other cutting-edge technologies, China is starting from scratch, rising rapidly, and even has reached the world's first, demonstrating the talent of Chinese people in scientific and technological research and development.
Well-known scholar Ni Guangnan said, basic technology can not be bought, only independent innovation is the long-term way out, now China's wafer industry is working hard to overcome the wafer industry chain, and strive to achieve 100% localization, I believe that this is not a problem after all, pure localization of wafers will become a reality, it is said that the domestic 28 nanometer lithography machine is coming, domestic high-tech, step by step, and gradually achieve self-sufficiency, self-improvement, foreign media have changed their views: the development of China's high-tech has been unstoppable.
