Can you guys do a documentary on the good old "Divide and Conquer" strategy that Western imperialists have been playing all over the world for centuries now? 😊 Create conflict in other people's regions, so you can reap the benefits. In this case, transfer TSMC's advanced chip making technology into the US. What a shamelessly evil culture, the West is 😅

Actually the solution is quite easy, secure tw self defence capabilities and it’s democratic system

WSJ please change this voice. It is annoying for international viewers from Europe. Have another speaker or voice please.

Quantum technology is also China's strength.

Unions are evil and similar communists.

Imagine making chips in your country without anyone from your own country actually learning how the process works lol. How unreasonable to expect that businesses operating locally should employ the locals?

well said

Not exactly, a newly graduate with several weeks of training can do it.

Since when have collective-blackmail unions been about rationality or quality assurance?

Its dirty trick where the USA trying to steal the Intellectual Property.

Because of what again? Could you repeat that part again? You said SECURITY? And what was that other word- SELF-PRESERVATION? China will gobble up Taiwan in an instant without US support. I happen to think that Taiwan's government's main security interest is to NOT get conquered by the enemy. They will send their absolute #1 best and most cutting edge chips over here, or their new boss will be Winnie the Pooh.

What are you talking about? Isn’t it already happening???

@@EhCloserLook no… I know this industry extremely well. TSMC will always have the bleeding edge in Taiwan. Everything outside will be a generation or two behind, which will still be top-notch. But Apple, Nvidia, Alphabet, Meta, etc. do not really care about anything but the bleeding edge. Especially Apple and Nvidia.

So far, arguably what you said is right. but what if Samsung gains ground on TSMC and risks from China grow more in the future? Most of developed countries like US, Europe, Japan would not want to take some potential risks that China can make. Still, TSMC is beating the pants off Samsung overwhelmingly, but when they are caught up and have to compete equally with Samsung which is located in safe place compared to Taiwan, they will have no choice but to move their factories to other safe countries even the top-notch. It can be far future or there would be no possibility for Samsung to catch up, but as we know, there has been no company that always could hold the top position especially in Tech sector.

@@ussj-mb7dr it will take so, so much to even much TSMC at this point. For at least the next 15 years, they are virtually a monopoly on bleeding edge semiconductors. The reason for that is that these factories as basically living, breathing organisms. And so much of it is the know how of building them like that, which only Taiwan has, and the people, skill set, tribal knowledge, patents, you name it. Just to build a factory like that will take half a decade at best. Nailing it on first try, would be next to impossible. So, considering it will take a few tries to get there, it is still a long, long way off.

labour union will prevent that.

we actually do here in the US as well lol.

And we have had for decades the same ecosystem here in the United States where most of the backbone of the semiconductor industry is based (KLA, Applied Materials, Cadence, Synopsis) and more than 90% of the chip designs (Apple, IBM, Intel, AMD, Qualcomm).

Labor is not a factor anymore -- look at the video of most Fabs -- very automated. The reason that Arizona is attractive to so many semiconductor companies is because 1) Cheap power - and the 2nd most stable grid in the USA, 2) Cheap land, 3) No natural disasters, 4) Cheap water (remember, 1/2 of Arizona looks like Colorado with 100's of lakes and underground aquifers), 5) A university (ASU) that graduates 7,000 engineers a year, 5) A semiconductor ecosystem that started in 1970s with Motorola and Intel that now spans 1000's of companies like ASM, ASML, Applied Materials, Tokyo Electron, Intel, Microchip, Amkor, EMD Electronics, Onsemi, Benchmark and many more.

Also what Americans overlook is that it was the One China policy that allowed for Taiwan to thrive with a stoppage of violence in the civil war. Now some geniuses have decided the One China policy is not convenient anymore. Hence the real reason TSMC has to build overseas.

Sematech again...

Intel, Texas Instruments, Microchip, Micron.... etc.

@@Kdgattowhere do do you think intel fabs their high end chips?

The design of the chips & machines used in chip fabrication are (in most part if not all) using US patents by US scientists/ organizations (aka US $$$). Yes, even the EUV or Ultra-EUV machines made by ASML (Dutch company) uses US patents in their design... The chip fabrication outsourcing to TSMC and therefore not incurring with the total cost of developing the manufacturing process from the ground up was one of the reasons why AMD was able to catch-up and even surpass (in some applications) Intel, which up until around 2020 had a "traditional" approach where they had to do R&D for the Chip design AND chip manufacturing (having difficulty in implementing/ using EUV machines) which effectively almost DOUBLED the cost of R&D as a whole for a new lithography process. Same thing that allowed Apple to design its own chip and have TSMC fabricate it for them, it would NOT have happened if they had to also invest in R&D on how to fabricate the chips because they would never make a profit (take the Apple Car project which was abandoned and had a much lower difficulty barrier). TSMC obviously has its own proprietary techniques and extremely competent employees and undoubtably (together with Taiwan) became a node of extremely talented engineers & specialists in chip manufacturing, they haven't become the "beast" they are by luck. Nonetheless there was A LOT of western investment in making it what it is today. The threat of hindering the chip supply chain so that the US "pew-pew" industry falls short is a matter of national security. Security of interests & security of investments, so you wouldn't really want to facilitate technology transfer in anyway which could expedite a challenging country to "skip steps" you had to go through without incurring the cost and time to do so. Take Chinese "stealth fighters", capable copies of US & Russian aircraft which are now used to threaten... take a guess.... Taiwan! yay! Hence why they are correctly bringing back fabs in the US as well as other strategic locations in the world with potentially lower geopolitical risk. So the only ironic part of any of this is that you tried to make a snazzy comment, just to be schooled.

Grrr but me hate America so you’re wrong.

Good thing that the US is a huge country with many allies and open to migration. Plus they have deep traditions in chip manufaacturing.

Those talents travel, not to mention poll of people in US is a lot bigger than those of Taiwan-same goes for China

The main reason U$A will never able to compete in Chip manufacturing. All the country that do well in chip manufacturing , has Confucianism culture. For chip manufacturing, a high level of discipline is the key, and most Americans today don't possess it. They call it “forced labour" Taiwanese media reported on August 2 that TSMC claimed the production holdup at its Arizona facility was caused by a shortage of trained American labour and that they had sent staff from Taiwan to assist with the factory's development. Labour union officials in Arizona, on the other hand, criticised TSMC for exploiting this as a justification to bring in "low-wage foreign labour."

Samsung can make those AI chip and other chips as well but at lower yield rate, so Taiwan’s TSMC is just cheaper to make those, that is all. Also now TSMC is opening factories in US, Japan & Germany. I am not sure why everyone is making big fuss about it. So what if we are now using 3nm, 2nm or 1nm, as time goes by, it will be smaller by TSMC or Samsung. It is just TSMC is 1 year ahead of Samsung, that is all. future AI chips will be faster just like all other chips in history of time.

Fun fact - the founder of TSMC was born on Mainland China. Taiwanese are Han Chinese people

Fun fact. The microprocessor was invented in the United States - ever hear of Moores law? And given that all the industry titans from Intel to NVIDIA, AMD, Microchip, Onsemi, Wolfspeed, Skyworks, KLA, AMAT, Synopsys, and 1000s more are USA based companies I would say the United States is clearly the world leader in all things semiconductor. Just because the Chinese can copy and steal technology doesn't mean a thing.

It does, logically. Without this type of commitment, the other side could expect to gain much more from a unilateral change in the status quo. With the commitment, the value they can expect to derive from doing so diminishes. Thereby making the continuation of Taiwanese independence more likely.

I thought exactly this.. The irony!...

​@@bearowen5480Pretty sure they have the know how, they've been poaching TSMC employees for a while now. I'm pretty sure they lack the full supply line though, especially if they get cut off from ASML

Industry experts are now saying that China is only 3 years behind on the leading edge chip fabriation technology, and the present size of chips can only get a little bit smaller. In other words, in 10-15 years, China will be caught up with the leading edge chip manufacturing technology.

It's not just a matter of 'spooling up', though. These technologies are the result of a series of breakthroughs so unlikely that there's usually only one player in the space with the arsenal of trade secrets sufficient enough to compete. Like ASML or Zeiss, for example. It's not simply years away, its multiple, successive breakthroughs away all coming together to not just make a chip, but make them reliably enough that the yield is economically viable and at a time scale that aligns with the west's momentum in pursuing Moore's law. It's not a finish line that you just need to keep steady pace on, it's a series of never ending ultramarathons through the Himalayas. If WSJ were to really dive into this angle, they would have to explain the embargos, national interest preservation measures, limitations of physics, yield and economics, never-ending supply chains, trade secrets, etc. They could, but I don't call foul for leaving it out of this video. However, I think your idea is a great idea for a video series from the WSJ. While I agree the WSJ could have shown the china angle more explicitly, the threat from China is inherent. I don't think it was implied that China would invade to acquire TSMC, the play would always be to cripple the west. They definitely did acknowledge the adversary in the room. Silicon chips are essentially very fancy sand. There's nothing inherently scarce/expensive about the atoms that make them up. With better and better industrial infrastructure, the cost of compute will asymptotically approach $0, limited only by energy's ability to approach $0 and the cost of sand itself.
