Zhaoxin (Shanghai Zhaoxin Semiconductor Co., Ltd., also goes by VIA Alliance Semiconductor Co., Ltd.) is Chinese fabless semiconductor company jointly owned by VIA Technologies and the Shanghai Municipal Government. The name "Zhaoxin" is a literal translation of the Chinese name which actually translate to "TrillionCore" or perhaps more appropriately "MegaCore". Zhaoxin x86 ISA license statues is unknown although VIA has a cross-license agreement for x86 with Intel until at least 2018 (as ruled by the 2010 FTC order).
Zhaoxin was founded in April of 2013 through a joint collaboration between Shanghai Alliance Investment Ltd. (a venture capital firm of the Shanghai Municipal Government) and VIA Technologies. The joint venture started with a $250 million investment with the 80.1% ($200M) from the Shanghai Alliance and 19.9% ($49.75M) from VIA. Zhaoxin has access to Centaur Technology's design team along with VIA's patent portfolio and intellectual property, including access to all of VIA's Centaur Technology x86 microarchitectures.
