Those parts will -- some of that depends on -- we'll work closely with the government to solve these issues."</p><p>Chief Financial Officer Wendell Huang said on Friday (July 17) the company is "very happy" with progress in Arizona, which is why it decided to ramp up investment to $265 billion, during an interview. He added that the company was very grateful for U.S. government support.</p><p>The pledge to expand in Arizona is a win for U.S. President Donald Trump, who has pushed for more chip-making at home.
