Tang Zhongding, who is making a tour in Sichuan, said that Motorola¡¯s future lies in China and the future of its new economy with intellectual property rights as core would be in Chengdu (Sichuan Province).

Motorola signed a cooperative Memorandum of Understanding on November 1 with the Chengdu High-tech Park to build up a software center and promised to make the center reach SEI fifth level, the highest level in the world, in a short period.
Motorola will also invest in the fourth phase of chip manufacturing of the Leshan-Phinix Semi-conductor Company to make it the biggest and best center of semi-conductor production.
Furthermore, the company will provide training for about 300 employees from 100 enterprises in Sichuan, and a high-speed highway communications network in Sichuan is under consideration.
