The U.S. Department of Commerce announced on Monday (April 8) that it will provide subsidies of USD 6.6 billion (about S $ 8.9 billion, the same below) subsidies for the leader of Taiwan's wafer foundry (TSMC), and low 5 billion US dollars.Rent loan.
TSMC also issued a statement that it is planned to build the third advanced wafer factory in Arizona, the United States, with a total investment in the local area of more than $ 65 billion.This is the largest foreign direct investment in Arizona's history, and it is also the largest foreign investment case in the United States in the United States.
Experts interviewed analyzed that the United States is increasing the suppression of mainland Chinese chips and considering the geopolitical risks at the same time, so it spare no effort in attracting the investment of wafer fab.Recently, the earthquake in Hualien has further proved that it should not rely too much on a single source of production and supply.
TSMC stated that the US Department of Commerce and TSMC Arizona has signed a preliminary memo (PMT). Based on chips and science ACT, the TSMC will get the highest highest in the chip and science law.Direct subsidies of $ 6.6 billion.
TSMC's first wafer fab in Arizona will begin production of 4 nanometer process technology in the first half of 2025; the second wafer fab is used in the most advanced 2mm process technology and will be put into production in 2028.In the future, the three wafer fab is expected to create 6,000 high -tech and high -paying job opportunities, and to create more than 20,000 construction opportunities for construction, as well as tens of thousands of indirect suppliers and consumer work opportunities.
The US Minister of Commerce Raymond Doro emphasized through a statement that these chips are the backbone of artificial intelligence (AI) and a necessary parts that support the economy.
Liu Deyin, chairman of TSMC, said: "The chip and the Science Law created an opportunity for TSMC to promote this unprecedented investment and enable us to provide wafer manufacturing services with the most advanced manufacturing technology in the United States."
Huang Renxun, founder and CEO of Huida, congratulated the historic investment of Taiwan Stock Power and gave the US Department of Commerce's support.
The U.S. Department of Commerce announced on March 18 that Intel In addition to $ 11 billion in loans.Today, TSMC will receive a subsidy of $ 6.6 billion and a loan of $ 5 billion.
Chen Ziang, a senior industry consultant in Taiwan, told the United Morning Post that the US chip and scientific law stipulate that the amount of subsidies is based on 15%of the investment amount. Intel has more investment amounts, more subsidies have been obtained, and non -external rumors.The media disclosed last year that TSMC invested more than 40 billion yuan, and the converted subsidy was about 6.6 billion.
He said, Japan is better for TSMC. A wafer plant will be built for three years, but TSMC is located inThe Kyushu Kumamoto Plant in Japan will be completed in only one year and eight months, and it is opened in February this year.The Japanese government allows TSMC for 24 hours and residents have no protest at all. This is very rare; Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Kishita also proactively announced that if the Gai Gaiwang Factory will subsidize 700 billion yen (about S $ 6.2 billion).Start.
The Ministry of Economic Affairs of Taiwan said that TSMC was subsidized by the United States that Taiwan is the most important base of TSMC. Even if in response to the needs of foreign customers, there is a global layout plan.The direction does not change.
