Hongkong wurde von den Briten übergeben, weil der Pachtvertrag für die New Territories abgelaufen war und die eigentliche Kronkolonie ohne sowieso nicht haltbar war. Eigentlich schade, daß sie damals Hongkong nicht an Taiwan zurückgegeben haben...
Aus Intels Pressemitteilung:
Intel today announced plans for an initial investment of more than $20 billion in the construction of two new leading-edge chip factories in Ohio. The investment will help boost production to meet the surging demand for advanced semiconductors, powering a new generation of innovative products from Intel and serving the needs of foundry customers as part of the company’s IDM 2.0 strategy.
[...]
the initial phase of the project is expected to create 3,000 Intel jobs and 7,000 construction jobs over the course of the build, and to support tens of thousands of additional local long-term jobs across a broad ecosystem of suppliers and partners. Spanning nearly 1,000 acres in Licking County, just outside of Columbus, the “mega-site” can accommodate a total of eight chip factories – also known as “fabs” – as well as support operations and ecosystem partners. At full buildout, the total investment in the site could grow to as much as $100 billion over the next decade, making it one of the largest semiconductor manufacturing sites in the world.
Planning for the first two factories will start immediately, with construction expected to begin late in 2022. Production is expected to come online in 2025, when the fab will deliver chips using the industry’s most advanced transistor technologies.
Na dann sind wir doch mal gespannt, ob da wirklich Intel 18A Chips vom Band purzeln werden
