  1. that doesn't make sense. 10% of Taiwan's workforce is on the mainland. Can you imagine if 10% of Japan or South Korea or Germany's workforce left. Doing business with the mainland is what keeps the island afloat whether DPP acknowledges or not. The "go south" program failed as now even MORE exports go to the mainland. Literally over 40%

  2.  @MarkLinJA  Ok - so you admit it is based on hatred. Well my family had to flee because of the Japanese and the British.... So how about that then?

  3.  @Harthorn  That is false. TSMC is a contract manufacturer. They have nothing to do with chip design

  4.  @RedFoxAce  no such thing as never get caught. Canon and Nikon were once ahead of ASML... And soon even EUV won't be enough for the next faze of semiconductors

  5.  @krishnanunnimadathil8142  You realize so called "open" countries all over the world have signed up for BRI projects right??? I mean - Italy - Portugal - Israel - Chile... And on and on...

  6. False... In fact Japanese paper Nikkei did a piece on them noting that literally twice a month they have meetings to make sure their supply chain can't be shut down by the US. Huawei was the wake up call

  7. yeah it's common around the globe... not sure why he's framing it as Chinese issues. It's capitalism really. Like everything else in China though it ends up being bigger.

  8. In the 1990's and early 2000's it was money from Taiwan and Hong Kong (and South East Asia) that built up mainland China because the older generations still considered themselves Chinese and wanted to see the motherland prosper. The ROC was allowed to be an observer because the ROC has no UN representation because she was voted out in favor of the PRC. SO when the ROC no longer wanted to abide by One China - it gets shut out of international organizations

  9. many things were left out...you can tell the political leanings of the person who made the video while watching some of their other videos.

  10. Go on the RISC V web site. They have plenty of Chinese partners.

  11.  @schubi128  yeah but chemistry and physics are finite... tesla has to compromise elsewhere

  12. Deng told Margaret Thatcher if she didn't give it back he would take it back. People on Thatchers team wrote about it. And as others noted - if the KMT didn't flee to Taiwan - they were going to demand Hong Kong back also.

  13.  @duyle-ej6ty  only 20% of ASML's tech is from the US. but yes the US is strong arming them. the CEO is not happy about it. He said China will eventually make competitive product and then his company will lose a huge market.

  14. Yes simply why would manufacturing stay in Hong Kong when it sits next to Guandong...? Of course it moved right across. A lot of it was Hong Kong money too.

  15.  @MarkLinJA  well speak of non political views... in reality - had he not spent so much energy trying to kill all the communists - China would have been strong enough to put up a more fierce fight against Japan and not cede so much territory... Then the KMT would have been able to hold the mainland. History would have been different. Like Sun Yat Sen - his resting place would be on the mainland.

  16.  @MarkLinJA  So murdering people is ok because they have different political views??? so then you must be completely ok with the Cultural Revolution too then. You must also applaud "the White Terror" that people on Taiwan now turn away from. You can't have it both ways

  17.  @ResidualSelfImage  that is plain false. The Republic of Formosa was formed by Qing subjects who were upset the Qing Emperor was willing to sign them over to Japan. Don't make false history.

  18. well then you should say People's Republic of China and Republic of China... Just like North and South Korea.

  19. Yes HiSilicon is working with the whole supply chain - including EDA software

  20. I think Changxin will be the more of a competitor in D-RAM

  21.  @indianatarzan8001  That is a silly idea. Hongxin is a startup. Huawei is one of the most successful companies in the world

  22.  @indianatarzan8001  I can name you companies in any country that were successful and committed fraud... So your claim is that only happens in China?

  23.  @ashishpatel350  completely false. Google never had a larger marketshare than baidu in China. Google refused to keep it's data in China so that's why it had to leave.

  24.  @qiyuxuan9437  you are correct. that's why the CEO of ASML said it's dumb to stop them from selling EUV's because eventually China will find a way around it.

  26. You said Vietnam is better for human rights than China??? You lost all credibility right there

  27. South China Morning Post is most assuredly anti Beijing. Not sure where you get the idea it is Chinese propaganda.

  28.  @PZ7537  Britain was broke after WW2 and couldn't afford the drain of keeping colonies anymore. You guys are funny pretending the Brits and other EUropeans suddenly no longer wanted colonies. They destroyed their continent and so couldn't manage empires anymore. And Patten was a hypocrite who only pushed through reforms at the end to spite China.

  29.  @thecat6159  Your last sentence summed it up. Deliberately trying to install a system in HK that was against the Mainland system when it had to be returned would have been a hostile action. That's not even really debatable. Which is why the Brits didn't do it.

  30.  @indianatarzan8001  read the WTO rules... tech transfer is a part of it for developing countries. that was part of the point of the WTO

  31.  @Asianometry  can you also do videos of the #2 foundries on the Mainland and on Taiwan respectively....? Hua Hong Group and UMC... I think both get overlooked...

  32.  @questworldmatrix  Correct. The Chinese Exclusion Act was during the Qing days and continued right through the ROC days as well. It was only after Japan became an enemy that the US removed it. And let's be real - the US was supplying Japan as Japan was invading China - including it's devastation of Hong Kong. Sadly - many in Hong Kong - and even Taiwan are not taught proper history. When you tell them the truth they claim you are brainwashed by the CPC. But I have never even lived on the Mainland. It's sad.

  33.  @ChristopherGoggans  This is deadly serious and you children make jokes about "winnie the pooh"... the future is a scary place. No wonder you think the 1992 consensus meant nothing. The 1940's can return... Nobody should be smug.

  34.  @Nathan-jh1ho  That's because the Nationalists under CKS - literally tried to kill them all off... But Sun Yat Sen is still revered and his burial place is a tourist attraction. Difference? He didn't try to kill all the CPC

  35.  @andro7862  The Brits wanted to give it all back right away. Deng thought China couldn't handle it because there were so many problems at the time. It was China that came up with the 50 year time line. Most westerners don't realize that.

  36. @Sumeet tanwar No treaty and no armistice... not even a formal cease fire.... war isn't over

  37.  @ntrgc89  The first major wave to Hong Kong was actually because of the Japanese invasion of China. Rich Shanghai people moved to Hong Kong and helped turn into what it became. Japan still attacked Hong Kong anyway. But no the British were not as brutal as the Japanese. But the Brits being racist against Chinese is not the same as Japan trying to take over it's neighbors. That would be more akin to what Japan's ally was doing in Europe.

  38. Japanese owned. The R&D is still in the UK (and actually China subsidiary does its own)

  39. Designing chips and manufacturing are very different. For instance AMD has almost the same engineering jobs on offer in China as in India. In the same way in the US you see both Indian and Chinese employees at the semiconductor companies. So both do plenty of design. Cadence and other companies have lots of jobs in China too... But actual manufacturing? it takes lots of funding and time. China is only doing it now because the US has forced it to.... But China has the overall manufacturing infrastructure and the hundreds of billions it takes...

  40.  @silkemyk3178  so honestly... if China has no hope... why waste time on this video?

  41. Further proof China is capitalistic now. This is common worldwide.

  42. i believe 16nm... they are ow expanding the 28nm also. I'm not sure what UMC has on the mainland but I think they are 28 and 40nm

  43. They have the 3rd most advanced production process in the world after TSMC and Samsung. Why what measure is that "disappointing"?

  44. Many Americans in the 1700's were loyal to the British Empire too.... Go figure. So why didn't the US remain part of the British Empire again????

  45. Yup aside from Comac and Airbus - don't be surprised if you don't see Russian MC-21's in China - at the expense of Boeing.

  46. Though it's population is larger than Singapore

  47.  @Cross-xm2fr  only Elon Musk says that. All major autos are investing in hydrogen. The only issue are the fueling infrastructure. But China - Korea - Japan - Germany are 4 out of the top 5 car markets in the world and they are all putting government money into building the stations. So in 10 years Elon Musk might sound foolish
    2
  48.  @Allyouknow5820  False - trucks - buses - forklifts all are moving toward Hydrogen rather than just batteries. Even Land Rover announced they are developing one because for large SUV's it doesn't make sense to use so many heavy batteries because it becomes inefficient with so much weight. So when the costs come down and there is more infrastructure - what do you think will happen.

  49. singapore is small.... semiconductors in 2021 require huge talent bases

  50. they make lots of money off of China. and they did it because they had a feeling the US would try to embargo them... they were right...
