根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
China's chip industry has developed quickly in recent years. You may find it is surprising, but it's true. China's imports(出口) of the chips are even bigger in worth than that of oil. The former was worth up to 410 billion dollars,but while there was 250 billion in 2021. NY, Bloomberg news(澎博新闻)Being key to everything electrical, chips(芯片) are needed around the world. However, it's not easy to make them. A chip may cross national boundaries (国界)many times during the production cycle.
China's Taiwan and South Korea, for example, play important roles in manufacturing(制造), while other East Asian countries are working on assembling(集成), testing and packaging.
Currently, most of the world's chips are made in China, while the US is the second biggest producer, CNBC reported. South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Germany, the Philippines, the Netherlands, and Thailand are further big manufacturers. Especially, China's Taiwan leads the way in making the chips. Their companies, TSMC,(台湾积体电路制造公司)and UMC,(联华电子公司), are two of the major names in the business, producing chips for some of the biggest tech companies in the world, including Apple and AMD.As of December 2021, TSMC alone provided 54 percent of the world's semiconductor chips.
China has already developed some influential chip companies, including Allwinners (全志科技), Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC, 中芯国际), and HiSilicon (海思)which is a subsidiary (子公司)of Huawei.
In chip designing, China has done well in the mid—and low—end market, while China's designing of more advanced chips still fall behind some developed countries. Besides advanced technology, China is also expanding its production capacity(产能).As of now, only 30 percent of the chips China uses are produced within the country. China plans to raise the rate to 70 percent by 2025 The Chinese government has also done a lot to boost (推动) the country's chip industry. The 14th Five—Year Plan listed semiconductors and artificial intelligence as two pillars(支柱)?
For future technology development in the next five years, China then announced(宣布)plans to invest(投资)1.4 trillion dollars(about 9.77 trillion yuan)between 2020 and 2025 in advanced technologies including but not limited to(局限于)semiconductors.
