First You Get the Money Then You Get the Power Then You Get the Tariffs!

Listen up you punks! Tony Montana here reporting live from my goddamn mansion. So I hear the gringos in Washington are talking tariffs on chips from Taiwan. Chips! Like I don't got enough problems with blow now they're messing with semiconductors? These guys are unbelievable I tell you. They think they can just squeeze Taiwan like a lemon? You gotta be kidding me!

Complementary? More Like Competing Amigo!

This Kuo Jyh huei guy the economy minister over there he's talking about "fair competition" and how the Taiwanese and U.S. chip sectors are "complementary." Complementary my ass! This is about power see? The U.S. they don't want Taiwan having all the good stuff. They want to control the game. And I know a thing or two about controlling the game!

Simulations Schmimulations! It's All About Negotiation!

So they're running simulations. Big deal! What are they gonna simulate huh? How much money they're gonna lose? The real game is in the talks see? That's where you gotta bring the heat. You gotta look them in the eye and say 'You wanna play rough? Okay. Say hello to my little tariff!'... Or something like that.

TSMC The Big Kahuna!

TSMC they're the big boys right? Apple Nvidia they all gotta come to them. Half a trillion dollars investment from Apple and $500 billion from Nvidia. It's like a giant money orgy! And TSMC they're laughing all the way to the bank. But even they gotta watch their backs. Washington is like a jealous wife always wanting more!

A Hundred Billion Here A Hundred Billion There Pretty Soon You're Talking Real Money!

A hundred billion dollars in investments in the U.S.? These guys are throwing money around like it's confetti! But even with all that these politicians still want their cut. It's never enough I tell you. Never enough. You think they care about jobs? They care about power! Pure and simple.

The World Is Yours... or Is It?

So what's gonna happen? Who knows? But one thing's for sure: this chip game is getting dirty. And when things get dirty Tony Montana's in his element. Maybe I should get into the semiconductor business... Think about it: Scarface chips! They'd be the best on the market guaranteed!
