  1. The more advanced TSMC's chips are, the more irrelevant they are to American technology. About 10% of 5nm technology is related to the United States, and only a single-digit percentage of 3nm technology is related to the United States. However, Huawei is TSMC's second-largest customer. Huawei purchased chips from TSMC in a similar amount as Apple. The United States banned TSMC from producing advanced chips for Huawei, causing considerable losses to TSMC. The United States did not compensate for it.

  2. Before 2004, the United States led the world in semiconductor technology, and foundries had to pay IBM's technology license fees. But in 2004, TSMC took the lead in developing 0.13-micron copper process technology ahead of IBM, ushering in the era of Taiwan's semiconductor technology leading the world. In 2014, IBM withdrew from the foundry business, and TSMC considered buying IBM's fab in New York State. However, even though IBM's technology has lagged Taiwan by a decade, the US Department of Defense and IBM, still worried about the influx of already lagging American technology into Taiwan, rejected the deal. High-tech semiconductor technology is the result of Taiwan's efforts to develop, and now the United States claims to "bring back" semiconductor production to the United States.

  6.  @tooltalk  Apple only accounts for 25%, and Huawei accounts for 20%, but the US policy has caused TSMC to lose orders from Huawei. You have only a shallow understanding of the semiconductor industry.

  8. TSMC's profit in 2022 is about 37 billion USD. Do your country have any such profitable company?

  10. In 2015, the A9 chip of the iPhone 6 was produced by Samsung and TSMC respectively. The evaluation of technology players found that the power consumption and performance of the TSMC version were much higher than that of the Samsung version, which triggered a wave of "Apple fan returns". Samsung has always exaggerated and lied. Samsung does not have 3nm. Its so-called 3nm has only 170 million transistors square mm, and TSMC’s 5nm already has 173 million transistors. To make matters worse, Samsung's 3nm yield rate is only 10%, which is basically an immature laboratory technology, while TSMC's 3nm yield rate reaches 90%.
