For the full year of 2021, Samsung Electronics' operating profit was 51.63 trillion won, and the profit of the semiconductor business unit reached 29.2 trillion won, accounting for more than half. Samsung Electronics' annual revenue in 2021 was 279.6 trillion won, and the memory chip business was 72.6 trillion yuan, which means that the storage business generated more than half of the profit with a 26% revenue share.

Although the global market last year was affected by the epidemic and other factors, the price of chips often fluctuated and the overall downward trend was explored, but this did not affect the market demand for memory chips, and even the overall performance of another Korean manufacturer, SK Hynix, was also very good.
