Semiconductor welcomes unprecedented new policies to support the rapid development of China's semiconductor industry by riding the wind and breaking the waves

The release of China's new semiconductor policy "Several Policies to Promote High Quality Development of Integrated Circuit Industry and Software Industry in the New Era" has reached its full moon.

Semiconductors are the core components of products such as computers, communications, and electronics. Chinese Mainland has become the world's largest semiconductor market, and vigorously developing the semiconductor industry has become the key to the stable development of China's electronic information industry.

So, how is the progress in various regions under the new policy? What is the current overall investment scale in the industry? What are the plans, layouts, and specific measures of domestic listed companies for the development of the semiconductor industry?

Unprecedented strengthening of support for independent property rights

Accelerate the implementation of supporting policies in various regions

On August 4th, the State Council issued the "Several Policies to Promote the High Quality Development of the Integrated Circuit Industry and Software Industry in the New Era" (hereinafter referred to as the "Policies"). The Policy emphasizes that the integrated circuit industry and software industry are the core of the information industry and the key forces leading a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation. The self-sufficiency rate of Chinese chips is expected to reach 70% by 2025.

At present, China's integrated circuit industry and software industry are developing rapidly. China is the world's largest consumer market for integrated circuit products and an important support for the development of the global integrated circuit industry.

The Policy proposes to further optimize the development environment of the integrated circuit and software industries, deepen international cooperation in the industry, enhance industrial innovation capabilities and development quality, and formulate eight policy measures in finance and taxation, investment and financing, research and development, import and export, talent, intellectual property, market application, and international cooperation. Further innovate institutional mechanisms, encourage the development of the integrated circuit and software industries, and vigorously cultivate enterprises in the integrated circuit and software fields.

"Compared to the existing policies in the industry, this policy has a wider scope, a looser scope, and a wider range of beneficiaries, which is unprecedented. The policy encourages all integrated circuit and software enterprises established within China, regardless of ownership nature, to enjoy relevant policies according to regulations. It encourages and advocates global cooperation between the integrated circuit and software industries, and actively creates a market-oriented, legal, and international business environment for various market entities to invest and develop in China," said Zhang Jinfu, a professor at Guizhou University, in an interview with reporters.

It is understood that according to policy requirements, various regions have entered the stage of formulating specific supporting policies, accelerating the implementation of policies. Several cities such as Nanjing, Shanghai, Chengdu, and Zhuhai have revealed plans to accelerate the development of high-quality integrated circuits. New funds have entered various stages of semiconductor raw materials, equipment, design, manufacturing, packaging, and testing, but there have also been uneven layouts. This policy emphasizes the comprehensive entry of funds, guides the cultivation of local industrial chains, and strengthens support for independent technologies.

Ding Shaojiang, the founder of DingTalk Technology, said in an interview with reporters, "From the impact of the earlier" Several Policies to Encourage the Development of Software Industry and Integrated Circuit Industry "and" Several Policies to Further Encourage the Development of Software Industry and Integrated Circuit Industry ", China's integrated circuit industry and software industry have achieved rapid development. Taking the integrated circuit industry as an example, data shows that sales in the first half of 2020 reached over 350 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of more than 15%. The role of this" Policy "in further optimizing the environment for the development of integrated circuit and software industry, improving industrial innovation capabilities and development quality should be expected. In this process, it is necessary for all parties to focus on global cooperation and intellectual property protection."

In recent years, the digital economy represented by the Internet of Things, big data, advanced computing, 5G, artificial intelligence, and blockchain has developed rapidly, leading the global trend of technological innovation and sparking a new round of transformation in the global technology and information industry. Among them, semiconductors are at the top of the entire electronic information industry chain and are the foundation for the operation of various electronic terminal products. The support of policies is also driving the accelerated development of the huge industrial scale.
