$10 billion in subsidies is here! The U.S. chip industry ushered in the biggest beneficiary

As the birthplace of semiconductors, the United States has lost its most important chip production capacity, and more products have been transferred to Asia, which has hit the chip industry in the United States hard, but its output is not as high as imagined.
In order to reverse this situation, the United States introduced a "CHIPS Act" with an allocation of 52 billion. Now that the United States has received the greatest benefits, is TSMC's efforts in vain?
The U.S. is the biggest winner in the chip grant.
In the United States, Intel, Qualcomm, Micron and a large number of world-renowned integrated circuit design and manufacturing enterprises gathered here, they all have deep research and development experience in the field of integrated circuits and are in a leading position in the industry. What's more, the United States has a very complete industrial chain in the field of semiconductors, from design to production to packaging and testing, there are quite complete supporting enterprises and scientific and technological support, which can be described as a very complete industry.
But the United States, as strong as they are, also has their own secrets. The United States is very dependent on third-party production, and the top chips in the United States are basically produced by TSMC and Samsung, and even some of Intel's advanced chips are produced by TSMC.
In other words, if the United States cannot independently develop its own high-tech products, then the United States will gradually lose its competitiveness in the future semiconductor industry. Therefore, the United States introduced the "Chips Act" and provided 52 billion yuan of funds to American factories.
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is also interested in setting up a factory in the United States, with an investment of 40 billion. However, it is Intel, not TSMC, that benefits the most. According to a report by Bloomberg, Intel wants to receive more than 10 billion subsidies and is the largest beneficiary of this chip subsidy program.
For Intel, it is not a surprise to receive these funds, after all, Intel is a local American company, and the United States has a great advantage in international competition, but also to reduce dependence on TSMC. What's more, in order to build a factory on this land, Intel has prepared two months of reserve funds in advance, and there is no need for the United States to refuse Intel.
Are TSMC's efforts in vain?
In terms of factory investment, when TSMC set up a factory in the United States, its total investment was 40 billion, which was much higher than Intel's 20 billion. In terms of technology, TSMC is the top in the world, and the United States will also build 4nm and 3nm superchip factories.
In any respect, it is more advantageous for TSMC to receive a huge subsidy from the United States, but now it seems that TSMC is going to suffer a dumb loss, the United States is obviously on their side, and TSMC can only be exploited by them.
After setting up a factory in the United States for many years, the subsidies that TSMC expected have disappeared, and the United States has repeatedly asked TSMC for unreasonable information and technology.
Many people are worried that TSMC will one day become "American Semiconductor Company", and then it will be squeezed dry by the United States, and a large amount of manpower and material resources will be snatched away by the United States, and then TSMC will regret it too late.
Therefore, it is time for TSMC to face the reality, the United States does not take him seriously at all, in order not to be led by the nose by the United States, it is best to firmly grasp the more cutting-edge chip production process in their hands and maintain some key trump cards, only in this way will their lives be truly in their own hands.
