[Li Dongsheng, founder of TCL: it will be great if the mainland finishes 5nm chips in five years.] recently, Li Dongsheng, chairman of TCL Technology Group, said that it will take at least five years for the mainland to solve the problem of high-end chips, and it will be great if the 5nm chip manufacturing equipment can be fully localized in five years' time.

A few days ago, Li Dongsheng, chairman of TCL Technology Group, said that it would take at least five years for the mainland to solve the problem of high-end chips, and it would be great if the 5nm chip manufacturing equipment could be fully localized in five years' time.

Dongfang Wealth Network reported that Li Dongsheng pointed out at the Chinese Entrepreneur Forum a few days ago that this round of chip supply shortage will be gradually resolved in the next three to six months. He believes that the bottleneck in the development of chips in the mainland lies in two aspects. One is that there is still a large gap between the manufacturing process, capability and technical team and the United States, Japan and South Korea. In addition, it will take at least three to five years for the mainland to solve the problem of high-end chips.

Li Dongsheng also said that TCL will not consider building cars and will focus on core industries, but will seize the opportunities of the rapid development of electric vehicles, seize business opportunities, and make some products related to electric cars.

With regard to the current situation that contemporary young people on the mainland are both introverted and flat, Li Dongsheng believes that if he is now 25 years old and is faced with the choice of starting a business or going to an enterprise, he is more likely to choose to go to an enterprise to develop for a period of time to accumulate some experience. "and then choose to start a business." this generation is better off than the previous generation, so the future belongs to young people. "

"Inner volume" and "lie flat" are words often spoken by post-90s and post-00s generation on the mainland. "inside volume" refers to "excessive competition", while "lie flat" means "withdraw from competition." these two diametrically opposite words reflect the anxiety and frustration of the younger generation towards the fierce competition in mainland society.
