"In addition, the industrial design for brain-computer interface VR has been finalized, and the foundry for the specially developed MSC chip is in talks for cooperation. Among them, SMIC hopes to be deeply involved in this project."
"They expressed their desire to be deeply involved in the brain-computer interface chip project and to participate in chip design. The two parties can cooperate by establishing a joint venture."
Combining chip design and chip manufacturing actually helps to maximize chip performance.
The models of Samsung and Intel are more advantageous than those of HiSilicon Kirin and TSMC, not only in terms of performance, but also in terms of cost and consistency in design roadmap.
A consistent design roadmap means that when Samsung designs 14nm mobile phone chips, it plans 5nm chips in advance, ensuring continuity and consistency in technology development.
Of course, it's not that HiSilicon doesn't want to integrate design and production; it's that it simply can't.
Li Miaomiao replied, "Our generation of MSC brain-computer interface chips has been finalized. If cooperation is needed for the second generation, we can consider it, but it will not be done through a joint venture."
The same brain-computer interface VR patent has been injected into Kechuang Future, but the brain-computer interface chip and related personnel still belong to Kechuang Bio.
"Furthermore, when conditions permit, we should give appropriate preference to SMIC, but at least we cannot entrust all of our production capacity to TSMC."
Since Huawei was blocked, Chinese companies, especially those with real technological strength, have had to prepare for two scenarios: what should they do if they are blocked again?
SMIC does lag behind TSMC in terms of yield, production capacity, and performance. However, if the entire supply chain is entirely dependent on others, it is easy to be caught off guard when unexpected events occur.
From the outset, SMIC (Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation) planned to support domestic chip foundries. If brain-computer interface (BCI) VR sells well, the BCI chips alone could be enough to support SMIC's 14nm process.
After Li Miaomiao finished handling all her matters, it was already past nine o'clock at night. She was just about to call her driver to take her home when another call came in:
"Mr. Li, the latest news is that the Europa Alliance has stated that if Kechuang Bio's brain-computer interface phone is sold within the Europa Alliance, Kechuang Bio will be subject to an anti-monopoly fine."
"There is no information on the specific amount of the fine, but Europa Commission officials said that the company abused its dominant position in the field of brain-computer interfaces to engage in predatory pricing."
“Abusing its market dominance to force consumers to use its chips.”
