Most of the top chip experts in the United States are Chinese? In fact, many Chinese choose to go to the United States, especially in the semiconductor industry, making the semiconductor manufacturing industry in the United States a "gathering place" for Chinese talents.
According to the statistics of the world's richest list, Chinese accounts for almost half of the semiconductor industry. Among the top three, the second place is the boss of China Enterprise Weier Group, and the third place is the founder of the American company Kingston, David Sun from Taiwan, and Du Jichuan from Zhejiang, China.
The first place is Huang Jenxun, founder and CEO of the American company NVIDIA, who earns up to $20 million a year, and he is a Taiwanese NVIDIA company run by him, which has a market share of more than 80% in the field of artificial intelligence. And the CEO of NVIDIA's old rival AMD is called Su Zifeng of Su Ma, who is also Taiwanese, and it is rumored that Huang Jenxun is Su Zifeng's cousin. Not to mention that Sun Zhongmou, the previous helmsman of TSMC, is also Taiwanese.
In addition to the Chinese on the list, there are also many semiconductor-related scientists who are also Chinese. Like Chen Gang, originally from Hubei, China, he is a top scientist in nanoscience, an academician of the National Academy of Engineering, and a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. But after being arrested by the FBI in January 2021, the Justice Department said the FBI found that Chen had received about $29 million in funding, mainly from Chinese agencies. On January 20, 2022, the US prosecutor filed a motion to dismiss Chen Gang's case. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in May 2023.
There is also the now very hot AI artificial intelligence, most of which is also Chinese to conduct experiments in the United States, than how to understand Guangdong Guangzhou's main research areas are computer vision, deep learning, and is currently a research scientist in the Facebook artificial intelligence lab. There are also Ng Ender-Tak, Hong Kong immigrants, born in the United Kingdom, former director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, etc., you can casually name a large list. Google's research team, Microsoft Research, etc. are at least half Chinese-faced. According to statistics, in just a few decades, Silicon Valley in the United States has enrolled more than 20,000 Beiqing students. This means that at least 20,000 excellent research talents have gone overseas, which is a huge number.
China's semiconductors are not lacking talent, the problem has become how to get these talents back. Chinese has become the main force of the US semiconductor manufacturing industry. The experience of the previous generation has taught us that the United States will only firmly grasp these talents, and may use the means of planting blame if necessary, such as the aforementioned Dr. Chen Gang. So how can the mainland make these talents willingly return to China for development?
