Half and half

During the August 16 Business Update, which was supposed to show the latest and greatest by Nanox, Dr. Kim, a convicted felon, said:

... we are now manufacturing MEMS chips from our own facility [in Korea]

Turns out, they were not manufacturing MEMS chips in Korea, at least not in a finished form.

According to his latest interview, things are done half in Korea and half in Japan (just as the CEO had described during an earlier results call on August 11).

Here is the translation:

The [fake] chips are made in Japan [not in Korea]

we can't process wafers from beginning to end [in Korea] 

we don't have the equipment to do so

we just don't

so of the 100 [fake] wafer processes, 50 are 

done in Korea, then the wafers are 

sent back to Japan to do the remaining 50.  

Then a fake chip emerges and propels a magic Japanese x-ray tube to Israel, or something like that.

Update October 23, 2021:  While Dr. Kim's statements agree with the CEO's August 11 statements, they disagree with the CEO's statement during the August 16 Business Update.  Nanox CEO lied when he said that the chip was made in Korea - Dr. Kim said it was made in Japan (while only partially pre-processed in Korea).  One can argue that it does not matter, since the chip is fake, anyway.
