China as the world's factory. It is impossible to build an EUV lithography machine. A 7nm chip. What exactly is causing this?
In the past 2022, the total scale of global chips was $573.5 billion last year, of which China's imported chips reached $415.6 billion, reaching more than 70%. This is the result of making rather than buying. The problem is that money can't buy it now.
Semiconductor chips are necessary for the development of cutting-edge science and technology, and the United States maintains its position as the world's hegemon. Now Chinese high-tech is not allowed to surpass the United States. The United States has not only suppressed Huawei, a Chinese private enterprise, with national power. So that Huawei's Kirin chips cannot be foundry production. He also led a group of younger brothers to continuously increase restrictions on China's semiconductor chips. Chip equipment such as EUV extended to DUV lithography machines are constantly tightening export controls, and without EUV lithography machines, we cannot mass-produce 14nm high-end chips.
Many people are puzzled, as the whole industrial chain of China. Why can't we produce a small chip?
Technology needs to be tackled. Production requires investment. The root cause of chipless availability is a group of so-called opinion leaders who have no pattern. I don't want to develop it, I just want to assemble and make quick money.
I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional. Huawei's domestic rivals. Many years ago, he has been openly preaching on various occasions in China that science and technology have no borders, and it is better to buy than to buy. Because it is the godfather of business. At that time, it had a huge influence in the country. Almost influenced a generation of entrepreneurs. Perhaps influenced by this thinking. As a result, many entrepreneurs do not want to invest in basic research and development, but only want to take it. The lithography machine is a collection of more than 100,000 kinds of parts. Many of these parts are blank in China. China has been in the past ten years. There are almost no special organizations for technical research on chip equipment. Abandoned the development of semiconductor chips. Now as soon as the United States blocks it, money cannot buy it. Only then did I know that the so-called national science and technology have no borders, and it is foolish to make a mistake than to buy. It is this passive situation that has been created today.
Look at the whole of China. Only the private enterprise Huawei continues to invest hundreds of billions to design the world's leading Kirin chip. However, there is no company in China that can produce Kirin chips. You can only find TSMC OEM. In 2019, the United States will not allow TSMC to manufacture Huawei Kirin chips. As a result, Huawei does not have 5G chips available. Mobile phone business from the world's first. To 5G mobile phone production is completely discontinued.
It is precisely because of the influence of the comprador trend of science and technology without borders and making it better to buy that the mainland has been importing lithography machines from ASML in the Netherlands for more than ten years. Abandoned independent research and development. This seriously restricts the progress of domestic semiconductor chips.
Some netizens once said. It may not be that they inadvertently put forward the idea that this technology has no borders and is better to buy than to buy. Perhaps it is an intention to use the status of opinion leader to cooperate with the United States to hinder China's scientific and technological development. Let China abandon independent research and development. Look where they're headquartered, and see where their executives are. Take a look at their salary. See why the United States didn't sanction them?
I think these so-called patristic elites. Treason or will not do. It is just for their own selfish interests, but this kind of comprador ideology that openly preaches that science and technology have no borders and is better to buy has a wide impact and is indeed undesirable, and also hinders the development of science and technology in China.
Public opinion in China is too relaxed. Look at the United States, missiles hitting balloons, trains leaking drugs, Nord Stream pipelines being bombed, and almost no one has reported anything bad for the United States. If such an elite openly says bad things about hindering the development of the United States in the United States, it will be destroyed for you.
We will harden this knowledge in the future. If, in the future, such thinking is used to fool Chinese in public, they must be held accountable.
