一 | Disgraced singer-songwriter R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison on Wednesday, marking the end of a six-week trial in Brooklyn that included testimony from dozens of witnesses, including those who accused the 55-year-old of both sexual and physical abuse.,The US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York was aiming for Kelly to be given at least 25 years behind bars, per a June 8 memo. The filing set forth that Kelly, now 55, should spend the rest of his life behind bars due to the fact he "avoided punishment for almost 30 years and must now be held to account.",Kelly's attorneys argued their client should only serve a decade behind bars because he "experienced a traumatic childhood involving severe, prolonged childhood sexual abuse, poverty, and violence.”,During sentencing Wednesday afternoon, US District Judge Ann M. Donnelly stated to the court that “the public has to be protected from behaviors like this.”,"These crimes were calculated and carefully planned and regularly executed for almost 25 years," Donnelly said, as reported by the New York Times.,The judge recounted a number of testimonies during sentencing, highlighting Kelly's pattern of sexual abuse and violence against women, girls, and boys.,Kelly's legal team plans to appeal the sentencing.,"We were prepared for it," said defense attorney Jennifer Bonjean, who represented disgraced comedian Bill Cosby in a civil case he lost earlier this month.

"He poses a serious danger to the public.",Lizzette Martinez, a woman featured in the documentary 'Surviving R. Kelly,' was accompanied by her attorney Gloria Allred when she took the stand to provide a witness statement.,"January 1995 eventually changed me forever," Martinez testified, detailing that she was a 17-year-old aspiring singer when she met Kelly in a mall.,Now 45, Martinez told the court that she was "left in shock, confused, and in tears" when Kelly, who promised to mentor her, began to abuse her.,“Robert, you destroyed so many people’s lives,” Martinez told Kelly, who did not make eye contact.,YouTube Deletes Two R. Kelly’s Channels Amid Sex-Trafficking Conviction6 October 2021, 09:18 GMT,“I do not know how to put a price on all I’ve gone through,” she said. “I am now 45, a mother and I struggle with mental health.”,Rumors and even footage of Kelly's misdeeds with minors and women have been circulating since the 90s, around the same time Kelly married teenage R&B artist Aaliyah. Despite dozens of alleged victims coming forward over the decades, accountability appeared to avoid Kelly until the 2019 documentary "Surviving R. Kelly" coincided with the #MeToo movement.,The intersection of the #MuteRKelly and #MeToo movements drummed up public support for victims seeking litigation against the Grammy-award-winning singer. Kelly is still facing a number of criminal charges in Chicago, Illinois, and Minnesota.,Kelly has remained behind bars since his initial arrest in July 2019.

二 | 我们将继续与客户密切合作，向他们展示我们的价值。" 成本压力驱动提价 台积电此次提价的核心驱动力在于生产成本的全面上涨。
三 | 材料、设备及电力等制造环节的多项投入成本持续攀升，令这家全球最大晶圆代工商承受显著压力。 本月，台积电上调了2026年资本支出预测，理由是人工智能需求旺盛以及扩产成本不断增加——尤其是其在亚利桑那州推进的总额高达2650亿美元的扩产计划。中东冲突引发的全球供应链扰动，以及AI产业的爆发式需求，进一步推高了台积电的运营成本。 台积电首席执行官魏哲家在7月公布好于预期的季度业绩后对分析师表示："我们不会突然涨价。我们赚取的是我们的价值，我们确保利润和毛利率足以支撑长期持续扩张，这对客户和台积电都有利，这是我们的经营理念。" 客户需求殷切，供给仍显紧张 台积电是英伟达、苹果、Alphabet、亚马逊等全球众多顶级科技企业的核心代工伙伴。与内存芯片行业价格大幅波动的特点不同，台积电长期以来坚持与客户建立穿越周期的长期合作关系。 然而，AI需求的持续爆发正在重塑这一格局。英伟达等客户已敦促台积电加快扩产步伐，以缓解AI加速器及数据中心相关组件的供应瓶颈。台积电刚刚公布了超预期的第二季度营收与利润，并上调了全年增长预测，但公司仍面临无法完全满足客户订单的挑战。 涨价横跨先进与成熟制程，多领域客户受冲击 此次提价若落地，将对台积电下游客户的成本结构产生直接影响。5%至10%的涨幅覆盖先进与成熟制程两大产品线，意味着从高端AI芯片到消费电子及汽车芯片的广泛产品均将受到波及。
四 | 台积电选择将新定价推迟至2027年生效，为客户提供了缓冲期，有助于缓和谈判摩擦。台积电方面强调，公司不就定价细节置评，但重申定价策略以战略考量为导向。
