This article will reveal the truth that the United States does not want China to make its own chips, and the complex inside story behind the related events. Former U.S. Ambassador to China Gary Locke said frankly in an interview that the United States does not want China to design or manufacture its own chips, and pointed out that the United States prevented the Dutch lithography machine giant ASML from sending China's first lithography machine, which is actually part of the United States' pressure on China in the chip war. He also revealed that the United States is trying to restrict China's access to cutting-edge chips from Nvidia, Qualcomm and other companies to prevent China from applying them to the military field or advanced computing, etc., posing a threat to the United States and having an impact. This is the reality at the moment.
However, it is worth noting that Locke's remarks have caused anger and criticism from some. Some people think that his behavior of forgetting his ancestors as a Chinese digital dictionary is despicable, and no matter from which point of view, it is appropriate to criticize him. However, for Locke himself, he does not seem to consider himself Chinese, but rather calls himself an American. What is the position of the *** has nothing to do with whether the ancestral home is China or not. This kind of indifference to one's ancestral origin is not uncommon in American immigrant societies, not only among the Chinese, but also among other ethnic groups. Therefore, we should not expect much influence that these people will have on China's construction and development.
Despite Locke's obnoxious remarks, from another point of view, we have to admit that his outspokenness is relatively frank compared to other American politicians. Compared with Biden's friendly stance on China's "four noes and one intention" (that is, not seeking to subvert China, not pursuing conflict and confrontation, not excluding China's development, not buying security technology from China, and not participating in the campaign to suppress China), the US ban on Chinese chips is more ruthless. They have spared no effort to enlist other countries to jointly encircle China, support the "** forces, and try to frame China in every possible way." In this context, Locke is nothing more than an outdated American politician, and we don't need to dwell too much on him, just classify him as an unworthy descendant of the Chinese nation.
Although Gary Locke represents the voice of some people of Chinese descent, we should not assume that all Chinese Americans have no feelings for their homeland. As part of the immigrant society, the degree of conceptual and emotional identification of the Chinese with their ancestral homeland varies from person to person. In particular, some Chinese descendants after three generations may be less indifferent to China. In the face of this reality, we should not expect much contribution and attention from them to China's development.
However, we cannot deny the importance of China's development to the global and even the Chinese community. China is striving to become an innovation and technology powerhouse, and independent research and development of chips is an important part of this process. The independent research and development of general-purpose chip technology will drive the development of the entire industry and provide strong support for the country's economic growth and innovation drive. Therefore, people of Chinese descent should actively participate in China's innovation and contribute to the rise of the motherland.
In the global technology competition, the chip industry is a crucial strategic area. As the core industry of the information age, chips are not only the foundation of modern science and technology, but also the cornerstone of information security. However, China, as a global manufacturing powerhouse, still faces huge challenges in independently designing and manufacturing cutting-edge chips.
First of all, chip design requires strong technical strength and innovation ability. The design of cutting-edge chips requires not only mastery of complex integrated circuit design technology, but also world-leading level in terms of functionality, performance, and reliability. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen investment in scientific research, enhance the ability of independent innovation, and cultivate an excellent team of chip design talents.
Secondly, chip manufacturing requires advanced production equipment and process technology. As one of the core equipment of chip manufacturing, lithography machine has a crucial impact on the manufacturing quality and performance of chips. However, due to technical barriers and export controls, many international advanced lithography machine manufacturers have restrictions on exports to China. Therefore, China must increase R&D investment, accelerate breakthroughs in independent core technologies, and reduce dependence on imported equipment.
In addition, the integrity of the chip industry chain is also one of the important challenges faced by China's independent research and development of chips. Chip manufacturing requires a complete raw material chain, advanced packaging and testing technology, and reliable chain management capabilities. Therefore, China needs to strengthen cooperation with upstream and downstream enterprises in the relevant industrial chain to form a complete industrial ecosystem.
Despite the huge challenges, China has made some achievements in independent research and development of the chip industry. For example, China has established a series of national integrated circuit design engineering laboratories and research centers, attracting a large number of high-end talents and continuously improving the technical level. At the same time, China is accelerating the research and development of its own chip manufacturing equipment to reduce its dependence on imported equipment. At the policy level, China has also introduced a series of policies and measures to support the chip industry to provide strong support for the development of the chip industry.
In the face of future opportunities and challenges, China should strengthen its self-confidence, strengthen scientific and technological innovation, increase investment, cultivate first-class talents, strengthen international cooperation, and form a good industrial ecosystem. Only in this way can China occupy a place in the global chip industry, realize independent research and development and manufacturing of chips, and ensure the country's information security and innovation capabilities.
This article examines the issue that the United States does not want China to manufacture its own chips, as stated by former U.S. Ambassador to China Gary Locke, and analyzes the importance and challenges of independent chip research and development. Although Locke's remarks have caused some controversy and criticism, we should take this example as a wake-up call to strengthen our attention and guidance to the Chinese community, and encourage them to actively participate in China's innovation cause.
At the same time, we are also aware of the huge challenges faced by independent chip research and development. China must strengthen investment in scientific research, enhance innovation capabilities, and form a complete industrial chain and ecosystem to ensure the independent development of the chip industry and the country's information security.
Finally, we should uphold a confident and firm attitude, actively respond to challenges, make positive contributions to the prosperity of China's chip industry and the development of the country, and realize China's scientific and technological dream.
