Mid-February 2000
A big event happened in the field of DRAM. Due to the accusation of American personal computer manufacturers IBM and Gateway (these two companies have notoriously bad relations with memory manufacturers), the US Department of Justice filed a case in 2000 to investigate Samsung Electronics from 1999 to February 2000. , Atlantic Jinko, Hynix, Infineon, Micron and other companies in North America, conspired to control memory prices.
In fact, during this period, memory manufacturers lived extremely hard, that is, after the end of 1998, life became easier.
?Because of market factors, major Japanese-funded manufacturers have withdrawn from the dram field one after another, and there is a rare shortage of supply and demand in the market, which has caused the price of dram memory chips to skyrocket again by more than ten times, reflecting the distinctive characteristics of cyclical bulk products.

In the past 20 years, the United States has invoked the Sherman Act to fine more than 10 million US dollars in 140 cases, and fined various multinational companies as high as 12.5 billion US dollars. Apart from admiring its hegemony, what else can we say?
Wang Yaocheng shook his head with a wry smile. The more than one billion US dollars should be fed to the dogs. From this, he also remembered the name of a company, that is the DRAM field, and the market competitor Micron.
This is a U.S-funded manufacturer with a lot of black history. It is the most active in blocking chip technology in mainland China, and it initiates patent lawsuits at every turn.
