The driving force behind this concerted push stems from the widespread belief in Washington that China has been, for some time now, engaging in an ever-increasing pace of technology transfer from the civilian sector to the military one. This, in turn, has given rise to the Trump administration’s concerns that China is able to procure the required sensitive components for its military through the commercial civilian trade. 華盛頓不斷地傳達管制台積電繼續銷售中國的急迫性。因為中國不斷地的加速把技術 從民間轉移到軍用。 Last month, a U.S. official informed Taiwanese diplomats that the semiconductors produced by TSMC and then procured by Huawei, were ending up in Chinese missile guidance systems aimed at Taiwan, as per the reporting by Financial Times. 上個月，美國官員告訴台灣外交人員，台積製造給華為的半導體，已經跑到了中國 對準台灣的飛彈導航系統裡面了。 "US officials often have conversations with Taiwan interlocutors about the security and end-use of their technology supply chains. We have similar general export control and non-proliferation conversations with many partners, ” the official said. 美國官員不斷地跟台灣講要對安全和它們科技的終端使用進行管制，美國也有同樣 類似的出國限制措施。 “In this particular case, we have a partner that is under a direct military threat from China, and is also one of the few places that produce certain technologies China needs to support its military ambitions.” 在這個特例裡，我們的夥伴最面對中國直接的軍事威脅，但它又幫中國製造中國 所需要的武器 Of course, this conversation has been occurring in the wider context of the Sino-U.S. trade war that has seen reprisals and counter moves from both sides. Earlier in June, the U.S. Commerce Department added the Chinese tech behemoth Huawei to the Entities List over national security concerns and for violating U.S. sanctions on Iran (read our related coverage here). The step bars Huawei from seeking sensitive components from American companies without a prior approval from Trump administration. Thereafter, in August, the Trump administration barred the use of federal grants for the purchase of telecommunications equipment from five Chinese entities including Huawei. The blacklisting of Huawei has disproportionately benefited TSMC. According to Randy Abrams, the head of regional semiconductor research at Credit Suisse, China accounted for about 20 percent of TSMC’s revenue in the third quarter of 2019 with Huawei constituting almost half of that proportion. This means that Huawei was directly responsible for about 10 percent of TSMC’s total revenue in the quarter. Consequently, given the lucrative financial stakes involved, industry experts remain skeptical that Washington can force Taiwan’s hand in this matter. Randy Abrams believes that “if the Taiwan government were to force TSMC to drop Huawei as a customer, the stock market would react unfavorably.” 目前中國佔台積電20%的營收，其中華為就佔了10% Though Taipei has declined to directly comment on this matter, the spokesperson for Taiwanese President has said that “Taiwan’s technology industry strictly respects international rules and continues to co-operate with major countries including the US.” 5.完整新聞連結 (或短網址): https://tinyurl.com/y3gjp5vz ※ 當新聞連結過長時，需提供短網址方便網友點擊 6.備註: 想到之前有個中國笑話 世界上最大的半導體製造公司在哪？在中國，在中國的台灣 老實說中國的導彈上的晶片，沒什麼意外應該也都是台積造的 這樣想想好像還真的有管制的理由 要不然就是把同樣的技術用在台灣的導彈上 台積電變成LBJ了嗎？ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 131.215.107.226 (美國) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Gossiping/M.1572975025.A.FC0.html
