The New York Times reported today (February 25): "In July 2023, Apple's Cook, NVIDIA's Huang Renxun, and AMD's Lisa Su entered a secure briefing room in Silicon Valley to listen to classified briefings with the CEO of Qualcomm, who participated remotely. The briefings stated that China's military spending meant it might take action against Taiwan in 2027. After the meeting, Cook told officials that he now sleeps with 'one eye open'."
Comment: The United States constantly hyping the "2027 unification of Taiwan by force" is essentially creating a panic narrative by fabricating a time point, thereby coercing tech giants like Apple, NVIDIA, and Qualcomm to bind global high-end supply chains to its anti-China war chariot. The so-called classified briefings are nothing more than a tool for political pressure, aimed at intimidating companies to accelerate the "de-Chinaization" process, providing an excuse for its military expansion and containment of China. Cook's statement about sleeping with "one eye open" reveals the real dilemma of Western companies caught between huge commercial interests and U.S. political coercion, and also exposes the U.S.'s true intentions of manipulating the global supply chain through the Taiwan Strait issue to maintain its hegemony.
