Cooperate with colleagues in the semiconductor equipment industry at home and abroad for mutual benefit and win-win results, and contribute to the rapid development of the global semiconductor industry. ”
Yang Zhenghua, deputy director of the Chongqing Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology, said in his speech: "As the birthplace of the first integrated circuit in New China, Chongqing has always kept in mind the mission of strengthening the heart and unswervingly regarded the development of the integrated circuit industry as the core and key to promoting the high-quality development of the city's manufacturing industry. In recent years, Chongqing has focused on the layout and development of emerging industrial clusters such as "core screen device nuclear network", and has successively issued a series of policy documents to support the development of the integrated circuit industry, continued to exert efforts in work strength, element guarantee and policy support, and accelerated the construction of a "2 + N" industrial pattern with Chongqing High-tech Zone and Liangjiang New Area as the core and Beibei and other related regions working together. Last year, Chongqing was included in the scope of the major productive forces layout of national integrated circuits for the first time, becoming the core area supported by the state and an important milestone in the history of the development of the integrated circuit industry in Chongqing. In the future, Chongqing will take the characteristic process as the main direction of attack, take IDM as the main path, focus on the five key areas of power semiconductors, silicon-based optoelectronics, analog and digital-analog compound semiconductors, and MEMS, build high-quality integrated circuit municipal key industrial parks, create distinctive industrial clusters, accelerate the construction of Chongqing into the country's largest power semiconductor industry and integrated circuit characteristic process technology highland, and concentrate on building the integrated circuit industry into a new business card of Chongqing's manufacturing industry.
Guan Zixiao, Integrated Circuit Division, Department of Electronics, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said in his speech: "The semiconductor industry is a strategic, basic and leading industry that supports economic and social development, and is an important embodiment of national competitiveness and comprehensive national strength in the new round of global industrial transformation. At the same time, we see that domestic equipment enterprises are still facing a large gap with the international advanced technology level, low market share, lack of complete sets of research and development verification platform and other issues, the world today is experiencing unprecedented changes in a hundred years, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change represented by a new generation of information is booming, semiconductors as the cornerstone of the information base, the status in the national economic and social development is further highlighted, semiconductor equipment as an important basic link, its development level directly determines the competitiveness of the industry. Next, we will continue to adhere to the application of traction, to meet the actual needs of the industry as the goal, accelerate technological innovation, continue to improve the support capacity of semiconductor equipment links, promote the coordinated development of the whole industry chain, adhere to the market orientation, give full play to the decisive role of the market in the allocation of resources, support backbone enterprises to become bigger and stronger, continuously optimize the industrial layout, stimulate the vitality of market players, adhere to openness and sharing, further increase the intensity of opening up, enhance the level and level of international cooperation, and build a mutually beneficial and win-win industrial chain and supply chain community. ”
In the next summit forum, Xu Yongde, deputy secretary of the Beibei District Party Committee of Chongqing Municipality, delivered a speech on "Zhiqi Beibei And Create the Future", he said: "Chongqing Beibei has ushered in a period of major historical opportunities, based on its superior geographical location, profound ecological and cultural heritage, rich resources of the new city of science and technology, solid industrial development foundation, and strong six support platforms, Beibei is rising rapidly. Established in August 2020, the Beibei Park of Western (Chongqing) Science City was established, and in the next period of time, with the convenience of internal and external transportation, the foundation of the sensor industry and the carrier of the industrial platform, the Beibei Park will focus on the "1+6+N" strategy to create a sensor industry highland, focus on 6 major application scenarios, and cultivate champion enterprises in N subdivisions. It aims to achieve an output value of 50 billion yuan during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and will build a 100-billion-level park in the next ten years. ”
Jin Cunzhong, executive deputy secretary general of the China Electronics Special Equipment Industry Association, delivered a speech on the theme of "China Semiconductor Equipment Review and Prospect", he said: "In the first half of 2021, with the effective control of the domestic epidemic, driven by the domestic integrated circuit and solar cell market, China's semiconductor equipment industry has achieved rapid growth. According to the statistics of 51 semiconductor equipment manufacturers above designated size by the China Electronics Special Equipment Industry Association, in the first half of the year, the sales revenue of semiconductor equipment increased by 53.0% year-on-year to 12.88 billion yuan. Statistics from the China Electronics Special Equipment Industry Association on 47 integrated circuit equipment manufacturers show that the sales revenue of integrated circuit production equipment in the first half of this year reached 5.903 billion yuan, an increase of 123.7% year-on-year.
