The source stated that TSMC plans to first install a pilot production line this year at the Baoshan Plant 2 in the Hsinchu Science Park in northern Taiwan, and that some of the production facilities in the Baoshan area, originally intended for the 2-nanometer process, will be converted to the 1.4-nanometer process.



Taiwanese media reported that TSMC's plan is a response to geopolitical changes. The newspaper also added that TSMC plans to invest more than $300 billion in Taiwan in the future.
