According to previous news, TSMC will invest in Japan to build a factory to produce 22nm and 28nm process chips, the project may be supported and subsidized by the Japanese government, the plant is expected to start construction in 2022, and enter the production stage at the end of 2024, thereby expanding TSMC's overseas production capacity layout.

In addition, in the context of the current shortage of global semiconductor production capacity, the Japanese government has accelerated the progress and introduced the construction of production bases, and TSMC has the world's top semiconductor manufacturing technology capabilities, so it may provide huge construction cost support to TSMC. It is said that TSMC has established a new plant with a total investment amount of about 800 billion yen, of which the Japanese government may subsidize half of the total investment amount up to the highest, and continues to pay attention.
