My comment: It was reported Apr 19 (two days ago) that China invested $300m
in SMIC in exchange for 11.6% equity. From commercial viewpoint, it would be
bad money after good. But China has not choice. Last summer China built the
fastest supercomputer in the world with chips from Intel and Nvidia. But
national security does not allow use of foreign chips. Still, even if SMIC
is up to job to make microprocessors (which I doubt), China does not have a
DRAM maker. |
