Yang Guanglei, former R&D director of TSMC, said in an interview with the media that excellent engineers and a disciplined work culture are two major advantages in advanced semiconductor manufacturing in Asia. He said that manufacturing chips involves complex processes, and how to do these matters is not suitable for much debate and debate. Most of the time, highly precise and well-trained personnel who can strictly abide by the rules and standard operating procedures are required. “They need to be willing to abide by orders and be willing to work overtime in order to get things done.”
