On July 23, news emerged that Intel is in search of an operational partner for its semiconductor wafer fabrication facility in Ohio, United States, instead of pursuing a direct sale. It has come to light that SK Hynix, a South Korean behemoth in the memory chip sector, is among the potential candidates. Nevertheless, formal negotiations between the two parties concerning a specific operational agreement have not yet commenced, and relevant discussions remain in their nascent stages. Earlier, in response to the rumors of "SK Hynix's plan to acquire the Ohio factory," SK Hynix made it clear that it has no immediate plans for a direct acquisition.
