What?

How does that line up with > This was probably written for Chinese state media, then translated here. No its not doomed to fail, China is just upset the US is going to cut them out.

China wants the US to stop relying on Taiwan. It’s another reason for the US to care less about them.

The US has the capability to make top-line chips, just not at competitive yields. China can’t make the chips. It’s a whole different realm of difference here.

We don’t really rely on China for our chips. We rely on Taiwan
