In p>213, China spent more money on chip imports than on oil imports, which made people pay attention to the development of chip industry in China. In September 214, China set up a chip industry support fund of 15 billion yuan, which further heated up this topic. The immediate goal of Chinese mainland's chip industry is Taiwan Province. Compared with Taiwan Province, the mainland's chip industry has obvious advantages.

with its strong market and industrial advantages, China has become one of the forces that can compete with Europe and the United States for the right to formulate communication technology standards. It has successfully led the formulation of the 3G standard TD-SCDMA and the 4G standard TD-LTE, and is actively promoting the 5G standard. China has two of the top five equipment vendors in the world, among which Huawei ranks first in the world. Thanks to the efforts of all parties in China, the patent right to speak on mobile communication technology standards has been rapidly improved, and the domestic chip industry has been escorted to the world. ZTE and Huawei have launched many patent lawsuits with their rivals in the US market and won some victories. China is no longer allowed to wave patent sticks casually in Europe and America.

China has become the largest smartphone market in the world. In 213, smartphones sold in China accounted for more than 3% of global sales. At the same time, China is also the largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world. China produces about 8% of global mobile phones, and it is estimated that China has purchased about 5% of global chips. In order to serve the China market nearby and win market share, Intel, Samsung and SK Hynix are all building semiconductor manufacturing plants in China. UMC has already built an 8-inch Hejian semiconductor factory in Suzhou and has just been approved by the Taiwan Province authorities to invest in a 12-inch semiconductor factory in Xiamen.

Although Taiwan Province has two chip industry leaders, MediaTek and TSMC, among which TSMC ranks first in the world's semiconductor foundry, accounting for 46.3% of the global OEM market share, and MediaTek is a giant in the world's mobile phone chip market after Qualcomm. MediaTek is facing the impact of wolves from mainland chip design enterprises and the challenge of mainland chip design enterprises to grab talents. UMC, the second largest semiconductor foundry in Taiwan Province and the third largest in the world, is challenged by SMIC, a mainland semiconductor foundry. HTC, a mobile phone company in Taiwan Province, has shown no signs of revival since it was suppressed and declined by Apple in the patent war. Due to the lack of the mainland's strong strength in the whole industrial chain, the two chip industry leaders are facing an unfavorable situation of fighting alone.
