The competition between China and the United States in the field of science and technology has become increasingly fierce, and the United States has taken a series of measures against Chinese technology companies, especially the ban on Huawei, which has attracted widespread attention. However, Chinese companies have shown tenacity and creativity in this cruel competition of science and technology. Recently, the countermeasures led by Chinese companies led by Huawei have been quite effective, and the United States has also announced that it has "lifted the ban" on some Chinese companies, but foreign countries have interpreted this as a "goodwill" to the outside world! But in fact, this is just a "sugar-coated cannonball", and Americans must not be gullible.
First, let's take a look at the U.S. technological blockade of China. Since Trump took office, the United States has been increasing its technological barriers to China, especially Chinese high-tech companies like Huawei. In order to stop China's leadership in 5G and other areas, the United States has adopted export restrictions and banned Huawei from using American technology and software. But instead of being hit, Chinese companies like Huawei have stimulated their own research and innovation.
In the face of such a situation, Chinese companies have also launched. With its strong research strength and independent innovation strength, Huawei has broken the blockade imposed by the United States and launched the Kirin 9000 S series, which has brought the domestic semiconductor manufacturing process to the international advanced level. It's unclear which company it is, but Huawei's 7 nm process technology, as well as its Mate60 series, have sold more than 30 million units. In addition, other Chinese technology companies such as Alibaba and Tencent have also made great strides in the field of cloud computing and artificial intelligence.
However, the United States has not stopped suppressing China. Recently, the United States announced the "lifting of the ban" on Chinese companies, including 31 Chinese enterprises, such as Chengde's Oolite Electronics, Ningbo's Daai Laser Technology. Companies that are considered key in China's high-tech industry have been removed from the "list" of the US Department of Commerce. In addition, the United States has agreed that companies like Nvidia will export some of its chips to China, but not chips with cutting-edge artificial intelligence computing capabilities.
Widely interpreted by foreign countries as a "goodwill" signal from the United States to the outside world; But in reality, it's just a bunch of "sugar-coated shells". The U.S. doesn't really plan to work with China, it just wants China to stay at the forefront of science and technology. By "lifting" the ban on a number of Chinese companies, the United States can not only maintain its technological blockade against China, but also make Chinese companies suspicious of the United States and prevent them from getting rid of their dependence on the United States. In addition, the United States can control the import of cutting-edge technology in order to safeguard its own technology industry and its own economic profits.
The U.S. "lifting the embargo" has not been an absolute success for Chinese companies. When some Chinese companies were removed from the Entity List, the United States continued to impose a technology embargo on China and impose restrictions on it. In addition, in some important industries, such as the semiconductor industry, China should continue to increase its own research and development efforts and increase investment in technology, so as to make it a country with real independent control capabilities.
