Shortly after the U.S.-China meeting in San Francisco, the U.S. behavior showed its true intentions. As you may recall, when a reporter asked about China's credibility with Biden, Biden and Blinken just looked at each other and smiled, suggesting that there was a problem with the credibility of the United States. The answer to this question seems to have been revealed in a series of recent actions.
1.First of all, shortly after the meeting, the United States could not wait to equip Taiwan with a clear provocation against China.
2.Second, the U.S. Treasury Department also announced a ban on U.S. companies from using Chinese-made battery modules, a move that underscores the U.S. intention to limit China's development.
3.In addition, the US military did not miss any opportunity, on the one hand, their ** "Giffords" ignored China's warnings and sailed directly to the waters of Ren'ai Jiao;On the other hand, the US military general even made a statement, claiming that a military conflict would break out between China and the United States in the next five years. These moves clearly represent a provocation by the United States against China.
4.These actions run counter to Biden's promise of "peaceful development," and we should perhaps not heed his promises, given that when he first took office, he made statements that China would not allow China to overtake the United States.
As Biden's right-hand man, U.S. Secretary of Commerce Raimondo made a series of high-profile remarks on China's chip ban at the expense of his own interests in order to prevent the development of China's chips. He not only threatened the major American chip giants, warning them not to send China's ** chips, otherwise control measures will be taken, and even directly named Nvidia.
However, as soon as Raimondo finished speaking, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang publicly stated that they would provide China with a new product that was in line with U.S. policy. This news has sparked widespread concern. We can see from Raimondo's statement that Biden intends to contain China's development, so it is impossible for Nvidia to go toe-to-toe with the White House. However, abandoning the Chinese market is also unrealistic for Nvidia, which accounts for about 20% of its sales.
Therefore, the current situation is very clear, the United States and Nvidia collude with each other, on the one hand, trying to limit China's artificial intelligence development, on the other hand, they are unwilling to give up the huge business opportunities in the Chinese market, and they also limit their iterative development market by dumping low-end chips of Chinese chip companies, which is really killing three birds with one stone.
However, we also need to be clear that Raimondo's statement is not very strong, because his main purpose is to get more funding from Congress, but the cost of his fight can be quite high. Raimondo is well aware that the United States cannot stop China's development at present, and with the rise of China's semiconductor industry, the monopoly of American chipmakers in the Chinese market will gradually be lost. By now, the United States should understand that China today is different from what it used to be, and that the relationship is no longer at the mercy of a handful of politicians in Washington, who may have some influence but cannot change the final outcome. When some people and forces try to swim against the current, history and reality will eventually force them to change their ways.
The Chinese side has warned the US that trying to block the door of others will only lead to its own narrow path in the end. Just like the various encirclements and blockades of China by the United States at the beginning, in the end they had to admit defeat. In other words, benevolence and righteousness are not applied and the offensive and defensive forces are different.
Through Raimondo's remarks and Nvidia's response, it can be seen that the United States is determined to contain China's development, but it is also facing the practical problem of not being able to give up the Chinese market. This dual mentality has led to contradictions and embarrassment in their China strategy. At the same time, the rise of China's semiconductor industry has made the United States realize that it has become almost impossible to stop China's development. Therefore, the United States must face up to the current situation and understand that the relationship between China and the United States is beyond the control of individual politicians. The forces of history and reality will eventually force those who seek to swim against the current to change their behavior.
Finally, we should also be clear that there is nothing to stop China's development. No matter how the external environment changes, China will uphold the principle of openness and cooperation, continue to promote scientific and technological innovation and economic development, and make greater contributions to building a community with a shared future for mankind.
