LIU: Nobody can control TSMC by force. If you take a military force or invasion you will render TSMC's factory non-operable because this is such a sophisticated manufacturing facility. It depends on the real time [correlation] with the outside world, with Europe, with Japan, with the U.S., from materials to chemicals to spare parts to engineering software diagnosis. And it's everybody's effort to maybe this factory operable. So if you take it over by force you can no longer make it operable.
- octoberfranklin 4y agoChina doesn't need to take TSMC by force. All they need to do by force is install a puppet government in Taipei. No bombs will fall anywhere near TSMC's facilities. No tanks will go anywhere near their employee parking lots. Life will go on just like before. For a few years, at least. It'll be just like Hong Kong. No bloodshed there either.
