At present, the global integrated circuit market is mainly occupied by companies from the United States, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Among the top 20 integrated circuit manufacturers in the world in 2016, eight are U.S. companies, three are European companies, and three are Japanese companies. , 3 for Chinese Taiwanese companies, 2 for Korean companies, and 1 for Singapore companies.

The early integrated circuit enterprises mainly used the IDM (Integrated Device Manufacturing) model. The IDM model is also called the vertical integration model, that is, the IC manufacturer (IDM) designs and sells the finished chips after production, processing, packaging, and testing. With the increasing maturity of processing technology and the continuous improvement of standardization, the integrated circuit industry chain began to develop in the direction of professional division of labor, and gradually formed independent chip design companies (Fabless), wafer manufacturing foundry companies (Foundry), packaging and testing Enterprise (package & TestingHouse), and formed a new industrial model-vertical division of labor mode, in this mode, design, manufacturing and packaging testing are separated into an independent link in the integrated circuit industry chain. From the perspective of the distribution of the global industrial chain, chip design, wafer manufacturing, and packaging and testing revenue account for approximately 27%, 51%, and 22% of the overall sales revenue of the industry chain.
China has been the world ’s largest integrated circuit market for many years, but the industry ’s self-sufficiency rate is relatively low. In many links, the market share of local companies in the global market is even close to blank. Integrated circuits have become China's largest single imported commodity for five consecutive years, and domestic substitution is imminent. Therefore, the development of strategic emerging industries such as 5G, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things in 2020 will not only bring development opportunities to local enterprises, but also pose challenges to all aspects of the supply chain.
