Abstract generation in progress

Masayoshi Son, founder of SoftBank in Japan, recently launched a "trillion-dollar" AI Bots technology park project named "Project Crystal Land," and personally pumped well-known tech giants such as TSMC and Samsung to join. He is also actively in discussions with the Trump administration regarding tax incentives, hoping to integrate AI with advanced manufacturing technology to reshape the U.S. tech manufacturing ecosystem.

Copy Shenzhen's successful experience and establish an AI Bots manufacturing base in the US.

According to a report by Bloomberg, Masayoshi Son plans to establish an AI Bots manufacturing park in Arizona, following the successful experience in the "China Shenzhen Manufacturing Park," naming this project "Project Crystal Land." The park will feature a series of production lines specifically for AI industrial Bots, with the goal of bringing advanced manufacturing back to the United States.

Negotiating cooperation with TSMC and Samsung, discussing tax cuts with the Trump administration.

Currently, SoftBank is actively seeking external partners to participate and is in talks with senior officials of the Trump administration regarding tax cuts. Masayoshi Son has also personally reached out to several major tech companies to gauge their willingness to cooperate and has invited TSMC and Samsung to participate in the collaboration, but neither party has responded publicly.

Some SoftBank investments in startups are expected to enter, with a scale reaching 1 trillion dollars.

According to reports, SoftBank has initially selected some companies from its Vision Fund ( to set up factories in this AI park, including the German startup Agile Robots SE, which specializes in Bots and automation technology.

However, this project is still in its early stages, and its realization relies on the support of the Trump administration. According to reports, if we follow Masayoshi Son's original vision, the scale of this project could reach up to 1 trillion dollars. Ultimately, whether it can expand into multiple similar parks depends on whether large tech companies are willing to participate.

SoftBank is fully focused on AI infrastructure.

As of the end of March this year, SoftBank has approximately $23 billion in cash and holds net assets of about $172 billion. Recently, it has also sold part of its stake in T-Mobile's U.S. subsidiary, raising approximately $4.8 billion in funds.

SoftBank is also preparing to invest $30 billion in OpenAI and is set to acquire chip company Ampere Computing for $6.5 billion.

In addition, it collaborates with OpenAI, Oracle )Oracle(, and UAE MGX on the "StarGate" )StarGate( global AI data center project, aiming to leverage large-scale investments with minimal initial funding through project finance )Project finance(, targeting an investment of at least $500 billion.

AI funding chain pressure still exists

It is understood that the progress of SoftBank and OpenAI's previous plan to raise hundreds of billions of dollars to establish data centers in the United States has been slower than expected due to the impact of Trump’s tariffs. The outside world generally believes that whether Crystal Land becomes a reality depends on the actual market demand and whether the funds can be in place.

According to Bloomberg analysis, to realize this idea, SoftBank may need to further divest mature assets and increase investment in more unlisted and higher-risk startups. However, some experts indicate that although this plan carries higher risks, if investment in AI infrastructure development continues, it could lower development costs and promote wider applications of AI.
