Foreign media: The Dutch government is worried that the chip manufacturer Nexperia, which is controlled by Chinese company Anjie Technology, plans to move its European chip production lines to China. Therefore, it has taken an unprecedented action, taking over the company's management and removing the Chinese CEO Zhang Xuezhen from his position, citing "national security risks". This move has caused strong dissatisfaction in China.
China then announced that it will impose export controls on Nexperia's subsidiaries and subcontractors in China, prohibiting them from exporting domestic components. Former CEO of Nexperia, Frans Scheper, revealed that Anjie Technology has already built a new factory in China, which can take over the production of Nexperia's European factories.
The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs is concerned that if the production moves out, it will lead to Europe losing its main chip manufacturing capabilities.
