A casualty in the chip war? Samsung Semiconductor lost nearly 13 trillion!
Huawei's Kirin chip was born, Qualcomm, Apple's two giants of the domestic mobile phone market share continues to decline, at its peak, Huawei once occupied nearly 56% of the market share, can be described as "a punch to Qualcomm, a kick to Apple", especially Huawei took the lead in releasing 5 G, completely subverted the hegemony of the United States in the field of communications, let us feel the huge threat of Oriental technology for the first time, this is an unprecedented sense of crisis. For the first time, Orient Technologies poses a threat to us. But the prosperous world is calling Huawei, once it rises, the United States will sanction it, and when the time comes, Huawei will fall and Apple will be devoured, what a realistic thing this is, how powerless!
But Huawei and other Chinese companies, but did not give up, but strengthened their determination, began 100% automatic control, and is constantly increasing research and development efforts, until the end of August this year, Huawei officially launched the Kirin mate60 core processor, marking a historic breakthrough for Huawei, with the ability to independently manufacture high-end chips! Abilities! Moreover, with the big sales of the Mate60 series, Huawei has also obtained a series of chips, and it can be said that Huawei has won this three-year-long battle"Chip Wars"！
But a few are happy and a few are sad, this time"Chip Wars"The biggest winners are not American companies such as Qualcomm, Apple, Intel, but South Korea's Samsung! You know, South Korea used to be a semiconductor power, in the world's semiconductor industry, has a pivotal position, especially in the memory chip, once Samsung was at its peak, once occupied 45% of the world's market share, to 2017, Samsung is more than Apple, become the world's fastest growing enterprise, which is greasy, simply jaw-dropping!
However, because of the revision of chip regulations, Samsung has been completely reduced to a Chinese company"Chess pieces", influenced by South Korea's international relations, the United States and the United States are"Brothers"The United States is the source of the semiconductor industry, so Samsung has to fall to the side of the United States. You must know that the United States forced the revision of chip regulations, resulting in Samsung not being able to export memory chips to the Chinese market for free, and Samsung was promoted to establish a chip factory of up to 17 billion yuan in Texas, however, even so, Samsung still did not get any benefits, let alone anything"Chip subsidy"Finish!
Samsung, on the other hand, was convicted of failing our security checks for its products"Under the ban", and Biden issued a steel order to South Korea, prohibiting Samsung and Hynix from entering the Chinese market to make up for their share of the Micron market! Not only that, but the United States is also known for"Patent Infringement"In the name of Samsung, an unprecedented fine of up to 400 billion won was imposed on Samsung, which is equivalent to deducting all of Samsung's profits in the first quarter of 2023 at once, which is definitely a heavy blow to Samsung!
According to the latest figures, Samsung's operating profit fell by 84 percent in 202392%, the semiconductor industry alone, lost 12700 million won, it is on the verge of collapse! Although the United States allows Samsung to operate in the Chinese market without restrictions and without restrictions, it will still be a long process with the return of its core "unicorn" Huawei. Samsung's semiconductor business is also facing a large number of layoffs and salary freezes for some managers, and it can be said that Samsung is at the moment"Bankruptcy crisis"Down, it's completely done"Chip Wars""Cannon fodder"！Cannon fodder
As the saying goes, under the sanctions of the United States, a large number of Chinese companies have embarked on the road of independent research and development, and in terms of memory, China's Yangtze River Storage, Loongson and other companies are at the forefront of the world, both in process technology and production capacity, they have the ability to catch up with and surpass Samsung, core, so that even if Samsung gets the "permanent exemption" from the United States, it is not impossible! Therefore, even if Samsung gets a "permanent exemption" in the United States, it will be very difficult to return to its heyday in the future due to the rapid development of China's chip industry! b Thank you.
