Speaking of China's chip development history, the earliest dates back to the 1950s, here have to mention a person, that is, Wang Shouwu, Wang Shouwu March 15, 1919, born in Suzhou, Jiangsu province. He graduated from Tongji University in 1941. He received his master's degree from Purdue University in 1946 and his doctorate in 1949. He has been a researcher, director of Semiconductor Research Department and honorary director of Microelectronics Center, Institute of Semiconductor Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
In the early days of the liberation of China, a hundred things were waiting to be done, and the field of semiconductors and integrated circuits could be said to be barren. At that time, Wang Shouwu and his colleague Huang Kun opened the course \"Semiconductor Physics\" in the physics Department of Peking University, and this new course was also taught by the four of them (Hong Chaosheng and Tang Dingyuan).
Later, the book \"Semiconductor Physics\" almost became a must-read classic for science and technology students in China. When it comes to the Physics of Semiconductors, there is another author - Xiesid. She is the former president of Fudan University, known as the \"mother of China's semiconductors.\" She is one of the leading advocates and organizers of semiconductor physics and surface physical science research in China.

In 1956, under the focus of Premier Zhou Enlai, semiconductor technology was listed as an important national science and technology project. Thus, China began a long semiconductor comprehensive offensive battle.
On December 23, 1947, Bell LABS officially successfully demonstrated the first point-contact transistor with amplification function based on germanium semiconductor, marking the birth of the modern semiconductor industry and the opening of the information age.
In 1960, the Semiconductor Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Hebei Semiconductor Institute were formally established, marking the initial completion of China's semiconductor industry system.
At this time, all countries in the world are gathering strength to develop science and technology, but at this time, China in the pre-scientific and technological war period, China has shown a sense of powerlessness, integrated circuits and other advanced technologies under the pressure of the international community, so that China has broken off international technical exchanges. In addition, China was still in the midst of the Cultural Revolution, and the street was full of exaggerated slogans: A random old lady on the street could make semiconductors by pulling a stove in the alley.
The pace of technological change is very rapid and China has started to fall behind.
In 1960, the state-run Jiangnan Radio Equipment Factory was established in a place called Cotton Lane in Wuxi, with about 200 employees whose main task was to produce diodes. Then at the end of 1968, the national \"vigorously develop the electronics industry\" call from upload to down, the national defense industry military management group waved a big hand, Wuxi radio machinery School and \"742\" factory merged, began to engage in new semiconductor process equipment research, trial production and production.

In 1982, The State Council set up a leading group to formulate a detailed development plan for China's chip, and four years later, the first development strategy for a long time about China's chip was born - the \"531\" strategy.
In 1988, the output of integrated circuits in China reached 100 million pieces, marking that China began to enter industrial production, 22 years later than the old United States, 20 years later than Japan, from 1965 to the first integrated circuit, China used a long 23 years.
The success of the \"531\" strategy, so that the Chinese people were full of fighting spirit, so the 908 project was born smoothly, when the plan to invest 2 billion funds, but this plan spent a full two years in the audit stage, two years is not long, but for the development of high-tech is a long period of time. When Wuxi Huajing was built in 1997, it was already a long way behind other countries.
In the 1990s, national leaders realized China's backwardness in integrated circuits after visiting Samsung's integrated circuit production line. At that time brought back is \"shocking\" four words exclamation. It was in this context that Project 909 was born. The lessons of 908 were learned in the approval of the 909 project. Funding plan approval came almost immediately.
The year 2001 is an extraordinary year for the Chinese people. In 2001, China won the bid for the Olympic Games and Ark 1 was born in 2001. At this time, China's Loongson project is also quietly underway. At that time, the Loongson project encountered many difficulties, because of the immaturity of the technology, it could not be recognized by the market.

At this time, Huawei has been quietly supporting Hisilicon to lay the foundation for the rise of Huawei. Huawei Ren Zhengfei knows that in the field of science and technology, there is no breathing opportunity, even if a little behind, it means gradual death. In 1991, Huawei established the ASIC Design Center to design its own chips, and at that time, Huawei was only founded four years ago, with only dozens of employees, and capital was the first major problem. But Huawei people did not give up, two years later Huawei developed the first piece of digital ASIC, in 2004 on the basis of ASIC, Huawei's mysterious force Hisilicon was born, more than ten years, Hisilicon did not stop the pace of update iteration.

In 2006, the \"nuclear high base\" major project was officially launched. \"Core high base\" is the abbreviation of \"core electronic devices, high-end general purpose chips and basic software products\". That year, The State Council issued the Outline of the National Medium - and Long-Term Scientific and Technological Development Plan (2006-2020), which listed \"nuclear high base\" as the first of 16 major scientific and technological projects, alongside manned spaceflight and lunar exploration projects.
Now the United States technology sanctions in a different way to consider whether it is not to promote China's high-tech development, I hope the country to forge ahead, whether the United States is lifting a stone to hit its own feet, let us wait and see.
