China imports from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Russia every year a lot of oil, but many people don't know the value of domestic chip imports have already more than oil, in 2014 and 2015 statistics of chip imports more than $200 billion, 80% of the chip needs to be imported, the first large consumption become China's foreign exchange. In this context, the localization of a mission is to improve chip made in China, domestic chip rate to reach 40% in 2020, to 70% in 2025.
China is already one of the world's most important chip market, the annual production of more than 10 smartphones, 350 million PCS as well as hundreds of millions of all kinds of home appliances, number theory is the first in the world, but most of it for chip depend on import, technology patents are mostly in foreign manufacturers, profits were swept away by the smoke would stay in China (pollution), this is unacceptable in China.
In May 2015 China issued a white paper on "made in China 2025", which referred to the Chinese chip rate will reach 40% in 2020, to 70% in 2025.
There are reports that China 12-inch fabs will be fully growth before the end of 2018, will help China produced 2025 years ago it consumes more than 40% of the chip.
They also cited the semiconductor manufacturing international (SMIC) is how to cooperate with the help of local government. SMIC in 2012 announced in Beijing building a 12-inch fabs. In June 2013, the north SMIC (Beijing) company was set up, this is SMIC, Beijing industrial development and investment management company and zhongguancun development group to set up a joint company, in 2015 the northern SMIC successful national semiconductor industrial development fund - that is, we often say the big fund investment in China.
Beijing, other local governments are actively developing the industry of China, such as xiamen, chongqing, hefei, nanjing, local IC industrial joint venture development actively. In addition, dalian and wuhan in hubei efforts into the 3 d industry of NAND flash memory.
