According to the publication, the American <\/a>automaker is also discussing the possibility of buying chips for electric cars in advance with the largest industry operators in Taiwan, South Korea, and the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the publication, the modern factory requires investments of up to $ 20 billion and is difficult to operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is noted that Tesla’s interest in acquiring the plant is at an early stage. Given the exorbitant costs, such a purchase can be difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the publication, some contract chip manufacturers have begun to allow large customers to make any advance payment to ensure the fulfillment of certain orders at a fixed price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This practice used to be very unusual for contract chip manufacturers, as flexibility in the allocation of capacity for orders from different customers has long been a cornerstone of their profitability<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Problems with chips<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, many automakers faced a shortage of semiconductors, due to which some companies were even forced to reduce production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the automotive industry, the deficit also affected the production of smartphones, computers, and game consoles. According to experts, the global car industry may lose $ 110 billion this year due to a shortage of chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April 2021, six semiconductor companies entered into an agreement <\/a>with Taiwan’s United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC), under which the world’s fourth-largest contract chipmaker will expand production capacity in exchange for financial deposits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did Tesla’s position in the ranking change<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of July 1, 2020, Tesla has become the most expensive car company in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In July 2020, Musk took seventh place in the ranking of the richest people on the planet. According to Bloomberg, Musk has bypassed investor Warren Buffett.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On July 21, 2020, Musk entered the top five richest people on the planet for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On August 18, 2020, Elon Musk entered the top four richest <\/a>people measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On September 9, 2020, Elon Musk lost $ 16.3 billion in one day due to the collapse of shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On November 17, 2020, against the background of Tesla’s inclusion in the S&P 500, the company’s shares rose sharply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of December 22, 2020,  Tesla shares fell after being included in the S&P 500 index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On January 8, 2021, Musk took first place in the Forbes list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of January 10, 2021,  Ilona Mask’s fortune exceeded $ 200 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
