Bad article.
Tl;dr
Doom is implied. Never spoken of. Generic story refactored you’ve read a million times about Morris founding TSMC. Geopolitics implied. TSMC says it’s doomed, while it helps the US make plants.
I am not worried about China invading. It’ll be over for them. Even if they take over Taiwan with no casualties on either side and everyone wanting to make chips as usual, they still fail without Dutch lithography which is like TSMC for another required process. https://thediplomat.com/2022/08/lithography-the-achilles-heel-of-chinas-semiconductor-industry/ https://thediplomat.com/2022/08/lithography-the-achilles-hee...
They don’t have the high quality silicon required either, that comes from the US.
