Speaking of companies with relatively high market value, everyone may first think of Apple, after all, in January this year, Apple once raised its market value to the same standard as the GDP of many European countries, and China also has a company with a surprising market value, it is TSMC, so how bullish is the market value of TSMC?
Market value is generally reflecting the development strength of a company, as well as the standard of the development prospects of the industry, TSMC as a company mainly engaged in chip semiconductor business, in the global core shortage environment naturally became the darling of the stock market, just recently, TSMC in one fell swoop to the position of Asian market value champion.
As of February 7 this year, TSMC's market value reached 4 trillion yuan, far surpassing the former market value overlords Tencent and Alibaba, but also becoming the asian market value champion.
You may not have much concept of the standard of 4 trillion yuan, compared with the total GDP of Beijing in 2021, you can know that the total GDP of Beijing in 2021 will reach 4.02 trillion yuan, and TSMC has completed the economic benefits of the people of Beijing for one year as an enterprise, and the strength can be seen.
From the second half of 2020, the global lack of cores began to stand out, and the major electronic equipment manufacturers in 2021 were plagued by the problem of lack of cores for a long time.
At that time, because of the lack of chips, well-known companies such as Toyota and Volkswagen were even forced to choose to reduce the output of cars, and mobile phone manufacturers such as Huawei were seriously out of stock of some models because of chip problems.
As a large semiconductor manufacturer in the world, TSMC has obtained 50% of the world's product supply share, and in this context, it is naturally sought after by all parties.
It is worth mentioning that Samsung, which has always competed fiercely with TSMC in chip level and market position, can only be out of reach this time, and the US semiconductor giant Intel is no exception.
This shows how high TSMC's influence in the industry and even the world is.
However, while people pay attention to the strength of TSMC, they are also interested in the former head of the giant company, Zhang Zhongmou, who was born in 1931 and his family is an ordinary resident of Ningbo, Zhejiang.
After many years of displacement, Zhang Zhongmou's family settled in Chongqing, but Zhang Zhongmou, who had become an adult, did not want to spend his life in this southwest mountain city, so in 1949, he went to Harvard in the United States alone to study.
In 1952, Zhang Zhongmou, who was already a master's degree, went to work at Texas Instruments in the United States and married his first wife.
In 1987, Zhang Zhongmou, who was in a high position in Texas Instruments, missed his hometown more and more, so at the age of 56, he went to Taiwan to start a business, which was TSMC.
Zhang Zhongmou disagreed with his wife during the entrepreneurial period, separated for a long time, and the marriage had already existed in name only, but the appearance of a woman quickly filled the gap in Zhang Zhongmou's demand for feelings, she was Gou's cousin Zhang Shufen.
Zhang Shufen served as Zhang Zhongmou's secretary, and even her husband was still An employee of Zhang Zhongmou, and it was surprising that two people with families would return to singleness because of the breakdown of their feelings, and then they came together again.
In 2001, Zhang Zhongmou, who had ended a 30-year marriage with his wife, began to pursue Zhang Shufen, who had just divorced, and the two were low-key married in the same year.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Zhongmou was 70 years old at the time, and Zhang Shufen was 13 years younger than him, so the marriage of this old husband and young wife made many people quite criticized.
However, Zhang Zhongmou after marriage was very happy, not only successfully dispelling the malicious evaluation of the outside world, but even creating a marriage story that everyone envied.
After learning that Zhang Shufen liked to paint, Zhang Zhongmou took out a large amount of money to build a studio for Zhang Shufen, and even when Zhang Shufen opened his own personal exhibition, Zhang Zhongmou personally came to the scene to cheer up his wife's platform.
In a public interview, Zhang Zhongmou said bluntly, "TSMC is not the biggest achievement of its own creation, and marrying Zhang Shufen is."
Today, Zhang Zhongmou has long since retreated behind the scenes and begun to enjoy retirement, taking Zhang Shufen to travel to various places every day to find inspiration for her painting creation.
With the rapid expansion of the global automotive and electronics industry, TSMC's status and influence will be further enhanced in the future, and the company's profits will also rise, all of which are inseparable from Zhang Zhongmou's foresight.
