You cant stop it, but you can make it more expensive.

Instead of buying the chips directly China has to set up, or go through intermediaries.

This adds overhead costs and risks. If they get the chips through a Vietnamese intermediary, the US can pressure Vietnam to shut it down or risk being sanctioned as well.
