While Trump Management was trying to make a Tiktok Agreement happen during the Chinese meeting last weekend, Beijing was busy adding their chips on the table. Real chips, in fact-semiconductors.
In the last week, China has shown a series of actions against American Chipmaker. Most importantly the investigation of the combat of Legasting Chips from the vehicles from vehicles and refrigerates in the wash equipment and data institutions. Unlike GPUSI – edge-edge, these chips rarely make articles, but are important so that they can enable daily electncons. Obviously, this is a place where the Chinese firms have received. According to American firms that have been filled with Chinese market with cheap chips, Purmissionors China open the tax department that will make American products become disgusting.
Then came the action against fighting against Lenvia. Chinese market administrator has openly announced that he received the first detection of the company and violated his 2020 commitment to the Mellanox company. During the days later, financial times report that cybererstace treats of China tells Bnowtance and Alabana to stop buying the latest Chips of Nvidia. And finally, Beijing began to investigate prejudice in the US Trade and Industry Raising Policy, Washington of Intel Likes Intel Users using Chips Act Subsidies and tax prices.
For anyone following the last five years of the US-China Tech war, all of this feels typically – but it goes down. Earlier, it was Washington and launching new chases for advanced Chinese semiconductors: Export controls, taxes, investment updates, and even employee restraints. Now, after years of defense, China indicates that it is prepared to use the same toolbar against its main Geopolitical rival. When a small investigation, the threatening of US chip companies can provide the Chinese representatives of another piece of negotiation with tiktok and tax prices.
“Chinese have been the best US students. Now we see that they have confidence and difficulty answering in the kind,” said Dan Wang, the author Breakeck: China’s search engineers and a disease in the study at the Hoover Center.
New chips on the table
The time of these options is not a mystery. The US is currently discussing Tiktok’s final agreement in the US – and submit partially under the US management. Unlike Washington, consumed with the questions about how to control the app is better, Berijing is a little about the Tiktok Personal End. Important to the Chinese government if you can sell permission permission permission, for example in tax values or export controls.
The semiCondectectors, which begins with politics a day, is the main goal. “Beijing is so careful about the future of tiktok rather than the ability of the semiconductor to obtain the technical technology to produce large-language models and continue to allow new items in the AI.
Discipling this week suggests that Beijing points to the new Leverage point: Chinese Home Market. The US was able to remove export controls because the US and Allies are still in control of the edge of the semiicumctuctor first: Asml’s Lithography equipment, GPU’s TSMCs. Beijing has no equal chokiri, unless perhaps at the unusual minerals in the world. But what China’s that is is the greatest buyer and to build a foundation. For example, China has the world’s largest traffic market, which needs billions of AUTO Chips every year. By signing its determination to use the market, it is not lending a page from Trump’s Playbook.
