Samsung claims to consider building 11 chip factories in the United States within 20 years

[Xinhua News Agency Weishe] South Korea Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. submitted materials for tax reduction and exemption to the United States on the 22nd, claiming that it will consider investing more than $ 190 billion in the United States in the United States in the next 20 years.

According to the Yonhap News Agency on the 22nd, Samsung requested two regions of Dezhou to give it tax reduction and exemption benefits. According to its intention to build nine chip factories in Taylor, Dezhou, built two in Osten, with a total investment of 192.1 billion US dollars.

Samsung said in a statement that the company does not have a specific construction plan at the moment, but it will evaluate the feasibility of building more factories in the United States. Samsung does not promise to implement the above investment proposal.

Governor Greg Abbot welcomed Samsung's proposal. He urged the U.S. Congress to pass the "US Semiconductor Production Incentive Act" to help the United States guarantee the security of semiconductor supply chain.

In March of this year, Samsung called on the US government to give foreign chip manufacturers equal opportunities to fight for government subsidies involved in the above bills in order to increase production capacity and solve the problem of continuous shortage of chips.

Samsung has been operating in the US production line for more than 40 years and hired more than 20,000 American employees. It has built a large chip factory in Austin, and is building a chip factory with an investment of $ 17 billion in Taylor City. (End) (Li Fuyu)
