The import volume of integrated circuits in China in 2022 decreased by 15%, the first time since 2004.NotBloomberg reported that data released by the General Administration of Customs on Friday (January 13) showed that the import volume of integrated circuits was from > 635.6 billion yuan in 2021 /SPAN> dropped to 538.4 billion yuan in 2022.This is the first annual decline in Bloomberg since tracking the data in 2004.NotIt is said that the decline in China's integrated circuit imports may be related to the control of the United States to strengthen the export of advanced chip exports to China.Last year, the United States implemented restrictions on the export of semiconductor exports for artificial intelligence and super computing to prevent China from developing its own chip industry and improving military capabilities.NotThe weak demand for electronic products and the impact of US export restrictions have recently declined in procurement of Chinese chip equipment.NotAs the crown disease epidemic has once again cracked down on domestic economic and fiscal capabilities, China's high investment in the chip industry will also be suspended.
