Zhongxin Finance, January 12. According to the news of the "Gongxin Weibo" public account on the 12th, Wang Weiming, director of the First Division of Equipment Industry of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said at a press conference held by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology on the 12th that since 2020, Enterprises in the automotive industry have been plagued by chip shortages, and in 2021, they will feel the pain of "core", and many domestic and foreign auto companies have reduced production or stopped production for a short period of time.
"There are many factors affecting this round of automotive chip shortages, including the cyclical impact of the chip industry itself, as well as some sudden factors such as the new crown pneumonia epidemic and production factory fires." Wang Weiming said.
According to reports, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has been paying close attention to and actively responding to the shortage of automotive chips, taking multiple measures to ensure the supply of automotive chips and maintain the stable operation of the automotive industry. Recently, it has focused on the following tasks.
One is to improve the working mechanism.
Set up a working group for the promotion and application of automotive semiconductors, establish a weekly production report system for key vehicle enterprises, and hold coordination meetings attended by local industry and information authorities, industry associations and key enterprises for many times, strengthen supply and demand connection and work coordination, and promote the improvement of automotive chip supply capabilities. .
At the same time, under the premise of ensuring safety, the procedures are simplified and the review progress is accelerated, which is convenient for OEMs to quickly realize the application of chip replacement solutions that are in short supply.
The second is to strengthen the connection between supply and demand.
Give full play to the communication and coordination role of industry organizations, guide the establishment of the China Automotive Chip Industry Innovation Alliance, organize the compilation of the "Automotive Semiconductor Supply and Demand Docking Handbook", and provide technical parameter information of 568 chip products and 1,000 pieces of information on the needs of vehicle and parts companies for reference by industry companies. ; Support industry institutions to build supply and demand information docking platforms, upstream and downstream communication and coordination channels, strengthen direct communication between automobile and parts companies and chip manufacturers, and promote coordination to solve various problems in a timely manner.
The third is to strengthen policy guarantees.
Coordinate relevant departments and local governments to provide financial funds, tax incentives, insurance compensation and other support policies, cooperate with the State Administration for Market Regulation to investigate and deal with unfair competition behaviors such as hoarding and price gouging in the field of automotive chips, and speed up the construction of automotive chip standard systems and sub-sector technical standards Develop and build a public service platform for automotive chip testing and application promotion, and strive to create a good development environment.
With the joint efforts of all parties, the supply of automotive chips has achieved phased results, providing strong support for the steady growth of my country's automobile production and sales in 2021.
