TSMC has undergone major personnel changes, and Chairman Liu Deyin announced his retirement
As we all know, in the field of chip manufacturing, there are TSMC, Samsung, Intel three, of which TSMC is undoubtedly the biggest winner, its technical advantages are very obvious, the world's high-end chip manufacturers, almost all of them are made by TSMC, Apple, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Micron These chip giants are TSMC's foundry products.
It is precisely because of TSMC's technological superiority that even the United States, which has always been known for its peace, has to throw an olive branch to it. TSMC was invited to build a factory in the United States at a critical period in the confrontation between China and the United States. And this incident is also a major turning point for TSMC, and for TSMC, it will do more harm than good.
In fact, during his tenure, Zhang Zhongmou strongly opposed the establishment of factories in the United States, citing high costs, high taxes and high labor costs, which would affect TSMC's revenue and profits. However, at that time, there was indeed an intention to set up a factory in the United States, and it was not until Zhang Zhongmou resigned and Liu Dejin took over that it was realized. Of course, Liu Dejin and Zhang Zhongmou's views on building factories in the United States are completely different, but it is precisely this that has brought Liu Dejin to the pinnacle of his life.
Some time ago, TSMC announced that after the end of the TSMC shareholders' meeting in 2024, Liu Deyin will leave office, making the outside world speculate whether he will resign or be dismissed? Whether to resign or be dismissed, everyone has different opinions. With Liu Deyin's retirement and the Wei Zhe family taking over, it is clear that TSMC will face another change.
Previously, foreign media's comments on the company were generally believed to be the evil results planted by the American factories themselves. In other words, even TSMC admits that "setting up a factory in the United States was a mistake." According to the data, TSMC's factory in the United States seems to have spent 40 billion yuan to build a state-of-the-art chip factory in the United States. I originally thought that I would go to the United States to build a factory, and I could get some subsidies and encouragement, but now it seems that the plan cannot catch up with the changes, and TSMC is likely to bear tens of billions of yuan of useless work, and also face greater challenges and obstacles, and may even transfer technology"Blatantly abandoned"。
Now I recall what Zhang Zhongmou once said: "America's domestic core products are doomed to failure." "Lao Mei's set"Routines"In addition to the extremely high cost, it can't withstand foreign investment at all, obviously, Liu Deyin is still too naïve, he looks at the American market too high, but it gave him a painful lesson!
Currently, TSMC's factory in the United States is in"Stagnation"The production plan has been pushed back to 2025, and the exact production date may continue to be delayed, depending on whether the previous US subsidy pledge can be fulfilled and whether TSMC is willing to continue to invest or take risks. I think that the remarks of foreign ** are well-founded and have a certain amount of truth. Such a major mistake directly affects the future development of TSMC and puts TSMC at risk, and Liu Deyin does have the responsibility to take responsibility. Regardless of whether there is a mistake or not, as the leader of TSMC, he has the responsibility to bear all this.
The question now is, will the chairman of TSMC, taken over by Wei Zhejia, be able to turn the tide? In all fairness, Wei Zhe's family is much older than Liu Deyin, and the reason why Zhang Zhongmou let Liu Deyin retire is probably because he is too old. However, now that Wei Zhejia has taken over, it is obvious that TSMC is no longer available, and the future development prospects are not optimistic, what do you think about this?
