The results of the Sino-US chip war came out, People's Daily: Peace is not sold or lost
As one of the important components of today's information age, chips are an important strategic resource comparable to oil. The Sino-US chip war has always been a topic of social concern, which not only affects the economic and technological development of the two countries, but also has a far-reaching impact on the trend of the global chip industry.
In this competition, domestic manufacturers face great challenges in independent research and development of chips, and it is difficult to catch up with the high-end chip technology of the United States for a while. This article will analyze the advantages and restrictions of US chip technology, China's chip demand and domestic chip market, the reasons for the failure of OPPO chip R&D projects, and the independent R&D and development efforts of enterprises to help readers understand the background and development trend of Sino-US chip competition in an all-round way, and at the same time provide some ideas and directions for the development of domestic chips.
▶ U.S. chip technology advantages and restrictions
The chip technology of the United States has always been in the leading position in the world, and the science and technology industry in other countries and regions also relies on the development of chip technology in the United States, so that all walks of life can operate stably. However, when other countries are also vigorously developing the chip industry and are expected to catch up with or even surpass the United States, the United States has begun to adopt a series of restrictive measures to try to maintain its dominant position in the chip field through various means.
Such restrictions are mainly reflected in various forms such as technology export controls, credit policies, and national security reviews. For example, in terms of technology exports, the United States has strengthened its technology export controls on China, controlled the export of high-end technologies, and restricted Chinese enterprises from conducting independent research and development. In terms of credit policy, the US government encourages financial institutions to strengthen support for high technology, but in practice, it also restricts the loan provision of some Chinese enterprises. In addition, the United States has also conducted national security reviews of some companies in the chip field, restricting the further development of Chinese companies.
These restrictions directly affect the pace of China's independent chip research and development and the healthy development of the chip industry. Although restrictions such as technology export controls have brought some obstacles to China's independent research and development of chips, China should not be intimidated by these restrictions, and should strengthen its determination to independently develop and break this technological blockade through breakthroughs in independent research and development technology.
▶ China's chip demand and domestic chip market
The demand for chips in China is very large, and the demand for chips in the fields of consumer electronics, communication equipment, automotive, industrial control and medical equipment is growing. Although some chips can be produced domestically, almost all chips involving advanced processes are imported. Therefore, China must improve the independent production capacity of chips.
At present, the domestic chip market is occupied by Chinese and foreign chip giants, and the number of chip manufacturers with real independent research and development capabilities is very small. Because chip research and development technology puts forward high requirements for talents, technology, capital, industrial chain and other aspects, the process of independent research and development of chips by enterprises has become extremely difficult. In contrast, large enterprises have relatively good independent research and development capabilities in the chip field, such as Huawei and Xiaomi. As an international giant, Huawei invests more than 100 billion RMB in R&D every year, and has organized a chip R&D team of thousands of people within the group. To some extent, this is also a symptom that the current domestic independent research and development of chips is on the right track.
▶The failure of OPPO's chip research and development project
The self-developed chip project of chip manufacturers is not a task that can be easily completed overnight, and it requires a lot of time and money. OPPO, as a well-known domestic mobile phone giant, had its own chip plan, but the plan ended in failure.
OPPO's self-developed chip project has experienced more than three years since its establishment, invested nearly 10 billion yuan, and established a research and development team with 3,000 people. However, after OPPO decided on its own chip production line, it could not successfully launch self-developed high-end chips. At the same time, there are also bottlenecks and restrictions on process technology, supply chain and other issues.
This is not OPPO's own problem, in terms of research and development strength, OPPO can design high-end chips and solve various technical problems. However, in terms of business layout, most of the domestic chip market is dominated by American companies. If you want to compete with it, you need to accumulate thick and thin, and you can't overturn the market pattern overnight.
▶ Enterprises independent research and development efforts
If enterprises want to carry out independent chip research and development, they must make multi-faceted efforts. The high cost and high risk of independent research and development of enterprises is not so much a big gamble as a must for every enterprise. Enterprises need to invest more funds and human resources, establish more industry-university-research cooperation mechanisms, cultivate and introduce excellent talents, establish a sound ecosystem and so on.
For enterprises, independent research and development is essentially a long-term process of exploration, which needs to be from technical pre-research, to the post-research amplification and application research stage, and then to industrialization to commercialization, in order to get the final landing. As Chinese manufacturers step up chip self-research and continuously improve the core competitiveness and technical content of the chip industry, the acceleration of the pace of independent research and development of Chinese chips will not only effectively promote technological innovation, but also consolidate the industrial chain of domestic chips.
▶Epilogue.
The Sino-US chip dispute is not only a competition in the economic field, but also a new pattern of comprehensive competition in the field of science and technology. Chips have an important position and strategic position in today's information age. For Chinese enterprises, only by breaking the technological blockade, accelerating the pace of independent research and development of chips, and exploring and making efforts in many aspects such as talent reserves, technology investment, and industrial upgrading can they gain greater development space and competitive advantages in the chip market. At the same time, the government should also formulate policies that are more conducive to chip research and development and industrial upgrading, strengthen close cooperation with industry associations and industry, academia and research related to the chip industry, and provide better guarantees and support for the development of domestic chips. Only in this way can Chinese chips achieve real take-off.
