Subfamily in China for about nt $130 billion (nt $, similarly hereinafter) to sell to American micron technology, Taiwan shares "after" han micronas also announced in 100 billion married lotus ShangYi Moore (ASML). Taiwan semiconductor industry is a "foreign" bought in succession, the competent authority in enterprise internationalization rather smug, business owners, more proud to demonstrate Taiwan sell is head. But this is not the case, the semiconductor industry one after another, like a high-level talent to immigration, is definitely a serious warning to Taiwan.
First is a crackdown on capital market; In the past twenty or thirty years, stocks of all channels, all by the group of high-tech industry. Han micronas, for example, because of its deep semiconductor electronic detection beam of the niche market, several years of earnings, investors rushed to investment, stock price as high as 1300 yuan, the so-called "after". But including subfamily, han micronas are foreign bought from capital markets after delisting, when gifted student frequently to relist if Taiwan stock quantity can therefore atrophy, where there are investors would favor to Taiwan stocks?
Then there are the impact on the industry development; Although the economic ministries will merge operators whether to continue to expand investment to Taiwan in the future, such as whether to lay off workers, in turn, affects the employment into account. But the development of industry of "team" Taiwan successively folding wings, don't represent Taiwan losing influence in the international industrial chain.
Worth pondering, the semiconductor industry are choose political power in Taiwan before and after a coincidence, then again in 2008 "vote with their feet", isn't gifted student to CAI enterprise has the vote of no confidence. The distrust, in addition to economic factors, I am afraid more political factors, or on both sides of the factors.
Taiwan semiconductor industry since the 1980 s development, but to date the machine equipment is imported from advanced countries such as Europe, America, Taiwan's semiconductor industry is to thrive, but a handful of semiconductor equipment industry, to explore the cause, glorified semiconductor investment amount is huge, imported equipment has high stability, but after the end, is Taiwan's market is too small, operators in equipment research and development of the synergy is not high is the key.
But han micronas is Taiwan a few local semiconductor equipment maker, semiconductor wafer testing the core technology of electron beam in sole possession of, global market share as high as eighty percent.
Han micronas choose to foreign investment, at this time it's hard not to let a person associate to, as have China semiconductor industry, but in "team" of Taiwan's shirt, is concerned about the small government out of a policy of "overcome impetuosity and exercise patience" block han micronas with mainland China industry alliance, cooperation or investment, rather than stuck in time, can only be alone, as early as possible to sell to the Netherlands ASML, on foreign umbrella, lest the forbidden band is small the authorities so that in the future international competitiveness being swallowed.
Recently by hunting new authorities, the worst is mediatek; The democratic progressive party (DPP) use close green media public opinion force, crown unwarranted charges against mediatek, thereby preventing open local participation of IC design industry. Such as the disinformation mediatek put pressure on officials to open local participation, but in fact it is false. "Economy minister" changxi Yang is clear, see the news also wonder, think that "is a magical thing," don't think our officials will be unable to resist this pressure.
And had to "service trade" fame Lai Zhongjiang, with the white terror on economic metaphor loosen IC design for local participation, points out that many vendors because of the deep fear of offending China, so can't hold public hearings, dare not openly come out against IC design loosen local participation.
Lai Zhongjiang it is tough for IC design loosen local closed doors; Resolution before because of the "legislative yuan", the semiconductor industry is open to local participation, when held a public hearing several opinions from all walks of life, before this should not be cut open. Now Lai Zhongjiang to speak out against the opponents because of the economic interests to come on the grounds that has not yet held a public hearing, first question its impartiality, let the public hearing stigmatized, how to have the opportunity, even if the future and who can believe?
Taiwan professor association more openly about mediatek chairman Mr Tsai, think one thousand Taiwan authorities to "open case", which is only open a mediatek IC design company to apply for by local participation, wouldn't the lu in form "broken window", so that all the IC design industry is a comprehensive one.
Even semiconductor godfather, TSMC chairman morris chang mediatek speak publicly, think that as long as the protection of intellectual property rights, information not get seats, dong lu should open land in IC design industry. But obviously the godfather also offset surface of the "fear of emotion", and the democratic progressive party (DPP) of operation of public opinion.
Therefore, Taiwan has irrationality to discuss whether IC design space for local participation. Mediatek has no let local participation in the table space. But don't forget, the enterprise will not from destruction, under the policy, and on the countermeasures. Mediatek has announced that it would put a subsidiary specializing in car entertainment information system chip of four dimensional diagram of new hair to sell to mainland, it will become a new one hundred percent subsidiary of the four-dimensional figure.
The deal seems to sell a little-known Chinese subsidiaries, but the real fun starts. Because mediatek also announced at the same time, the future will invest $100 million and the four dimensional figure the new joint venture or investment company, automotive electronics and Internet market. Mediatek will transfer what technology to the joint venture investment company, from all walks of life to wait and see.
