7月3日广宁省向富士康集团颁发投资登记证书，以实施总投资5.51亿美元（约合人民币40亿）的两个项目建设厂房。到目前为目，富士康在该省投资了5个项目，总投资近10亿美元（约合人民币72.7亿）。
富士康集团从2019年起开始投资广宁，在东迈工业园区的越南项目投资额为1.37亿美元。2023年富士康继续在广宁投资两个项目总投资额为2.46亿美元。
2024年7月3日，富士康集团继续选择广宁再投资两个项目，总投资5.51亿美元。项目位于广安市，其中智能娱乐产品项目投资在Sông Khoai AMATA工业园区，占地21.5公顷，总资本2.637亿美元，设计能力418万件/年；智能系统项目投资在DEEP C Quảng Ninh II工业园区，占地12.4公顷，总资本2.872亿美元，设计能力为878万件/年。
根据投资证书，两个项目将于2026年7月建设完工。机器安装试运行时间过后，将于2027年5月起正式投产经营。
为了协助富士康集团实施该项目，广宁将成立由省人民委员会主席直接领导的工作组实施支持措施，为行政程序执行创造最便利的条件，确保富士康集团实施的项目实施进度和基础设施配套需求。
在向富士康集团颁发《投资登记证书》仪式上，广宁省领导也同时建议投资者加快部署进度，2025年9月完成富士康之前2023年在广宁Song Khoai AMATA工业园区，总投资额为2.46亿美元的2个项目，这也意味着前面两个项目的建设时间比之前的投资计划缩短了10个月。
根据广宁经济区管理委员会的数据，截至目前，广宁省有20个国家和地区在该省投资和开展业务，总投资近140亿美元。基础设施同步投入，竞争力强，经营质量位居全国前列。广宁被投资者评为越南最具吸引力的投资地点之一。
据了解，富士康这两个项目有可能是为生产苹果的智能手表Apple Watch和苹果的智能音箱HomePod配套。今年初西方科技集团提出了新的6G产品研究框架，由于贸易摩擦的原因，中国不在西方6G合作框架之内，因此多数销往西方市场里，有数据连网功能的产品，都需要采用非中国的供应链来生产。
近日产业链也传出在苹果后端代码中发现，除了HomePod和Apple TV之外，苹果正在开发一个传闻已久的新家用设备，或许为带有屏幕的HomePod设备。
该代码的标识符为“HomeAccessory 17,1”，这是一个全新的标识符类别，类似HomePod的“AudioAccessory“标识符又有所不同。“17,1”的字段表面这款设备可能会搭载与iPhone 16同款的A18芯片，这可能暗示着这款设备将支持Apple智能。该代码还表明，这款“家用配件”将和HomePod一样运行tvOS的改版系统。
On July 3, Quang Ninh Province issued an investment registration certificate to Foxconn Group to implement the construction of two projects with a total investment of 551 million US dollars (about 4 billion yuan). So far, Foxconn has invested in five projects in the province, with a total investment of nearly 1 billion US dollars (about 7.27 billion yuan).
Foxconn Group has been investing in Quang Ninh since 2019, investing US$137 million in a Vietnam project in Dong Mai Industrial Park. In 2023, Foxconn will continue to invest in two projects in Quang Ninh, with a total investment of $246 million.
On July 3, 2024, Foxconn Group continued to choose Quang Ninh to invest in two more projects, with a total investment of US$551 million. The project is located in Quang An City, of which the smart entertainment product project is invested in the Sông Khoai AMATA Industrial Park, covering an area of 21.5 hectares, with a total capital of 263.7 million US dollars and a design capacity of 4.18 million pieces/year; The intelligent system project is invested in the DEEP C Quảng Ninh II Industrial Park, covering an area of 12.4 hectares, with a total capital of 287.2 million US dollars and a design capacity of 8.78 million pieces per year.
According to the investment certificate, the construction of both projects will be completed in July 2026. After the trial operation period of the machine installation, it will be officially put into operation from May 2027.
In order to assist Foxconn Group in the implementation of the project, Quang Ninh will set up a working group under the direct leadership of the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee to implement support measures, create the most convenient conditions for the implementation of administrative procedures, and ensure the progress of the implementation of the project implemented by Foxconn Group and the supporting needs of infrastructure.
At the ceremony of awarding the "Investment Registration Certificate" to Foxconn Group, the leaders of Quang Ninh Province also advised investors to speed up the deployment progress and complete two projects in the Song Khoai AMATA Industrial Park in Quang Ninh in 2023 before Foxconn in September 2025, with a total investment of 246 million US dollarsThis also means that the construction time of the first two projects is 10 months shorter than the previous investment plan.
According to the Quang Ninh Economic Zone Management Committee, as of now, 20 countries and regions in Quang Ninh province have invested and conducted business in the province, with a total investment of nearly US$14 billion. Synchronous investment in infrastructure, strong competitiveness, and operating quality ranks among the top in the country. Quang Ninh is rated by investors as one of the most attractive investment locations in Vietnam.
It is understood that Foxconn's two projects may be for the production of Apple's smart watch Apple Watch and Apple's smart speaker HomePod. At the beginning of this year, Western technology groups proposed a new 6G product research framework, due to trade frictions, China is not within the Western 6G cooperation framework, so most of the products sold to the Western market, with data connection function, need to use non-Chinese supply chains to produce.
Recently, it has also been rumored in the industrial chain that in Apple's back-end code, in addition to HomePod and Apple TV, Apple is developing a new home device that has been rumored for a long time, perhaps a HomePod device with a screen.
The identifier for this code is "HomeAccessory 17,1,", which is a whole new category of identifiers, similar to the HomePod "AudioAccessory" identifier. The "17,1" field surface this device may be powered by the same A18 chip as the iPhone 16, which may imply that the device will support Apple Smart. The code also indicates that this "home accessory" will run the same modified system of tvOS as the HomePod.
