Zhang Zhongmou graduated from MIT at the age of 24. After graduation, he entered the semiconductor industry together with Gordon Moore, the founder of Intel Corporation, the originator of semiconductors, and entered Texas Instruments together with jack kilby, the inventor of integrated circuits. I stayed at Texas Instruments for decades, and then left to pursue my dream.
Before leaving Texas Instruments, he also had a long-term vision for the market prospect of chips. During his tenure, he repeatedly called on enterprises to increase chip production on different occasions inside and outside the company, but unfortunately the company never listened to his advice. 1987, Zhang Zhongmou founded the world's first professional foundry company-Taiwan Province Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Company (TSMC) in Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan Province Province, and quickly developed into a leading enterprise in the semiconductor industry in Taiwan Province Province.
Brief introduction of TSMC:

TSMC, founded in 1987, is the world's first professional integrated circuit manufacturing service (wafer foundry) enterprise. Its headquarters and main factory are located in hsinchu city Science Park, Taiwan Province Province, China. It is the largest and most advanced chip manufacturer in the world. Mobile phone manufacturers such as Apple, Huawei and Xiaomi all rely on TSMC's chip manufacturing.
At first, this company was as humble as most small companies, but now it has developed into an industry giant. Among Asian technology companies, TSMC ranks fourth, and the top three are Ali, Tencent and Samsung.
