Telugodura456 Posted August 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 1 minute ago, Raven_Rayes said: Taiwan and US are so joined at the hip that US military intelligence suggests that TSMC be destroyed in the event of a Chinese invasion. https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/taiwan-should-adopt-a-broken-nest-policy-and-destroy-tsmc-in-wake-of-any-chinese-invasion-suggests-us-military-paper/ “The United States and Taiwan should lay plans for a targeted scorched-earth strategy that would render Taiwan not just unattractive if ever seized by force, but positively costly to maintain,” according to the paper. “This could be done most effectively by threatening to destroy facilities belonging to the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, the most important chipmaker in the world and China’s most important supplier.” and you are asking why Intel couldn't do what TSMC could. It doesn't matter if Intel couldn't, because TSMC will do what the US wants it to, for the most part. like even killing its first 5nm chip. These are war games. In peace Intel and TSMC are just fair rivals. Intel couldnt beat them because TSMC have their own innovations. I am not saying TSMC is completely self sufficient in tech but they have their own nice in this entire supply chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i understood correctly you were saying US will ban all its markets to china. But as Russian example showed it is doubtful US can force african or russian or even indian not to buy stuff from china if it benefits them. ah I see. it looks like US ban on Huawei worked.. it dropped out of top 10 smartphones so far in 2022, when it braved the ban to finish top 2020. and slid out of top 5 in 2021. Looks like US has enough clout in the world. https://www.androidauthority.com/q1-2021-smartphones-report-1218555/ Report: Huawei falls out of the top five as everyone else grows in Q1 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No company can be completely self sufficient in tech. that's the point. Not even Intel. its games like these that'll set china back, not because they lack talent or something. US can easily lock them out of the market if they chose to.. like they did for huawei. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you think they will develop chip fabbing in three years? they need to develop the entire chain from software to design the chips to lithography equipment. capital expense of TSMC is $17bn a year and it has been investing close to this pace for 20 years.

If they achieve this in 10-15yrs, Chinese can claim to be the master race of the 21st century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Taiwanese capital plus US tech that made TSMC what it is in 20yrs. Chinese attempts to build something outside of US ecosystem won't be have similar timelines. At some point Chinese are gonna give up and make peace with the US in the medium term and try to beat the US at some other leading tech in the future.

Raven_Rayes Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 eventually China is gonna beat the US at tech @Telugodura456 it is inevitable. It has 5 times the number of people. But it won't be in the semiconductor race, coz US absolutely dominates that space. Even when China is the biggest market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have reached a critical momentum and a different political system which can marshall resources to one strategic goal MAY give them success.

Raven_Rayes Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 It also depends on how much welcoming US is to immigrants in the future. clearly republican talking points are gonna scare away a lot of people from considering moving to the US. Immigration is already dropping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
