The integrated circuit becomes a "manufacturing power" leading industry to reach the new opportunity of electronic FCC

China's IC industry is in a rapid development stage, achieving a win-win situation in 2017. According to the latest data from the National Bureau of Statistics, China's IC production in 2017 reached 156.46 billion pieces, an increase of 18.7% year-on-year, achieving a total revenue of 433.55 billion yuan, an increase of 20.1%. By 2020, China's IC industry will exceed 900 billion yuan, with an average annual compound growth rate of 20.8%.

The rapid development of China's IC industry has benefited from the strong support of national policies. As early as 2014, "IC" appeared as a key word in the government work report for the first time. In that year, the State Council issued the "Outline for the Development of the National Integrated Circuit Industry", which raised the development of the integrated circuit industry to a national strategy, and clarified the priorities and goals of the development of the domestic integrated circuit industry during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period. In this year's government work report, the integrated circuit industry has been placed at the forefront of the industry that is accelerating the development of “building a strong country”.

In addition to the strong support of the policy, the key to the development of China's integrated circuit industry lies in the progress of enterprises, especially the progress of key enterprises. According to Li Xiaohua, chairman of Shangda Electronics, a leading company in China's FPC (flexible circuit board), before 1997, Chinese manufacturers had not really touched the field of FPC production. Around 2000, more and more mainland companies began to invest in FPC production. According to statistics, at least 60 companies in the Pearl River Delta region were involved in the construction, reconstruction and expansion of FPC production lines, and they were mainly concentrated in Shenzhen, Huizhou, Dongguan, Zhuhai, Guangzhou, Zhongshan and other cities. The Yangtze River Delta region also has several Ten FPC manufacturers have been put into production. FPC has thus become one of the hot projects that spurred investment in private enterprises. Shangda Electronics was established at that time.

"The equipment and materials are heavily dependent on imports, which is a 'card neck' problem that restricts the independent and controllable development of China's integrated circuit industry." Li Xiaohua has been deeply touched by the business for 14 years. "Only by improving the industrial capacity and forming the scale of independent industries." Only in order to simultaneously improve the development of integrated circuits."

At present, the integrated circuit industry is booming. Under the dual benefits of domestic consumption upgrading and industrial transformation, it will undoubtedly usher in a new round of development climax. According to the National Plan for the Promotion of Integrated Circuit Industry, by 2030, the main links of China's integrated circuit industry chain have reached the international advanced level, and a number of enterprises have entered the international first echelon to achieve leapfrog development. This means that in this plan, China's IC industry will be the focus of national policy in the next decade or so.

"In the past two or three decades, electronic product specifications have been mainly defined by Japanese and European and American manufacturers. Now, China's huge market demand has made many new products must be defined for the Chinese market. This is the beginning of the Chinese market leading the global market, and also the Chinese integrated circuit industry. Reshaping the opportunity of the market structure." Li Xiaohua said.
