Global semiconductor chip production capacity has been tension for two years, and it has been eased, but it has not returned to normal. Samsung increased by as much as 20%.

TSMC and Samsung chip foundry increased the price. So, does SMIC follow up without follow -up prices? At the recent financial report meeting, SMIC's joint CEO Zhao Haijun also talked about the company's foundry price increase.

Zhao Haijun said that in terms of price increases, we are not exactly the same as their peers.

In the SMIC, one principle is to negotiate with customers friendly, and then consider long -term strategic cooperation. Because the company's production capacity has grown rapidly, we must do it with customers with potential for a long time, and customers must be profitable.There are enough funds to invest in new products and new research and development, so that they can achieve long -term win -win results instead of seeing more who make more in the short term.

Zhao Haijun said that until now, some of them can cooperate well, and the price has risen; some customers may have other reasons, and there are no more. Therefore, we did not declare all the rise at once, or to do this by negotiation.
