According to Taiwanese media CNA, Sony President Kenichiro Yoshida recently revealed at the JASM opening ceremony of TSMC’s Kumamoto plant that the plan for the plant originated from a statement made by TSMC’s current president Wei Zhejia when the two sides met in 2021.

According to Kenichiro Yoshida, he brought the head of Sony’s semiconductor business unit to TSMC in January 2021 to discuss logic wafer procurement. At the beginning of the meeting between Sony and TSMC, Wei Zhejia said that TSMC was considering manufacturing in Japan and hoped that Sony would assist .

From this sentence, the focus of this meeting changed from procurement negotiations to production cooperation. Finally, the two parties announced the plan to establish JASM in November of that year.

Kenichiro Yoshida said that Sony not only focuses on the design of image sensors and other products, but also attaches great importance to the production and manufacturing process. Sony has invested more than 200 staff in JASM, who have accumulated valuable experience in the fab construction process.

Wei Zhejia expressed his gratitude to Sony and other project participants for their support and cooperation, and emphasized the key role of Kenichiro Yoshida and Shinnosuke Hayashi, chairman of Denso, another JASM shareholder, in the project construction process.

Looking back on previous models, the iPhone usually uses Sony's CIS, but since last year, there have been some problems with the cooperation between the two parties. Sources mentioned that because Sony failed to supply CIS in time at the end of last year, it was difficult for Apple to determine the release date of iPhone 15. Therefore, Apple applied to Samsung Electronics last year to conduct research and development of such CIS in order to achieve supply.
