[Special Commissioner Lin Cuiyi in Japan/Report from Tokyo on the 30th] Japanese media interpreted President Tsai Ing-wen’s visit to Central American allies in the United States, and regarded TSMC founder Zhang Zhongmou as a key figure in controlling the situation in Taiwan. As long as Zhang Zhongmou is healthy and will If the main body of semiconductor production is located in Taiwan, it will be difficult for China to attack Taiwan.

Yomiuri TV, which focuses on the Kansai area, broadcast the news program "Takaoka Commentary" on the 28th, explaining President Tsai's intention to visit at this time and the current situation in Taiwan.

The host of the show is Yoshiyuki Takaoka, chairman of the news department of Yomiuri TV. In the show, he introduced that President Tsai will not only stop in the United States, but also give a speech in New York and is scheduled to meet with the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, McCarthy.

In the program, Takaoka mentioned that when President Tsai Ing-wen visited the United States, those who opposed Tsai Ing-wen in Taiwan recently went to China. The big man is the 91-year-old founder of TSMC, Zhang Zhongmou. His English name "Morris Chang" is very famous in the world.

Takaoka said that it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the key figure in controlling the situation in Taiwan.

Takaoka introduced that Zhang Zhongmou had represented Taiwan many times in the past to attend APEC and other international conferences. Among the leaders of various countries, Zhang Zhongmou was the only civil figure.

Zhang Zhongmou was sent to attend, in addition to the China-Taiwan issue, the fact is that the leaders of many countries asked President Tsai to send Zhang Zhongmou to attend, and everyone wanted to meet him.

Takaoka said that TSMC has invested and built a factory in Kumamoto, Japan, and has also set up a factory in Arizona under the affectionate call of the United States. US President Biden also went to attend the machine transfer ceremony, showing how much they value it. Governments from all over the world are willing to pay for TSMC. Set up factories.

TSMC has mastered the world's most advanced technology, and Zhang Zhongmou's words can change life and death. The production lines of automobiles, refrigerators, washing machines, and mobile phones all over the world, including China, all need semiconductors.

Takaoka also said that in order to guard against troubles in Taiwan, Japan has greatly increased defense expenditures, but as long as Zhang Zhongmou is healthy and places the main body of semiconductor production in Taiwan, it will be difficult for China to attack Taiwan.

Because once China attacks Taiwan, it will not be able to get semiconductors, which will also cause the global economy to stagnate.

So many people think that as long as Zhang Zhongmou can continue to travel around the world, everything will be fine.

Zhang Zhongmou recently expressed his support for the US chip policy for the first time, in favor of "slowing down China's development of semiconductors."

Takaoka believes that such a statement by business people is extremely risky, but Zhang Zhongmou has made it clear without reservation, and China is not only not angry, but also politely invites him to invest in China.

Takaoka also pointed out that the biggest problem facing Chang Zhongmou is the race against time. Although he is still in good health, he is 91 years old after all. Can his successor continue to advocate that Taiwan is different from China like him? Taiwan will hold a presidential election next year. If pro-China forces are elected, it is still unclear which side Taiwan will lean toward.
