British media: US announces resumption of shipments from NXP Semiconductor's China factory!

November 1, Reuters reported: "The White House announced yesterday that the NXP Semiconductor China factory has resumed shipments. This move will ease supply pressure for global automakers. NXP Semiconductor is controlled by Chinese company Wenetek, headquartered in Nijmegen, Netherlands. Approximately 70% of the chips produced in the Netherlands are packaged in China. After the Netherlands took over its assets and replaced the Chinese CEO, China immediately banned the export of specific products, and NXP Semiconductor also suspended the supply of wafers to Chinese assembly plants, exacerbating the supply shortage. The resumption of shipments is expected to alleviate the chip shortage dilemma, which may be one of the outcomes of the Sino-US meeting."

[Sagacious] The White House announced the resumption of shipments from NXP Semiconductor's China factory, which seems to be a remedy for global automakers, but it is actually a hasty retreat after the U.S.-led technological encirclement suffered a major blow. This farce, orchestrated by the U.S. behind the scenes and executed by the Netherlands in front, used Cold War-era laws to seize Chinese assets, intending to choke the car-grade chip lifeline, but instead, China precisely retaliated with the supply chain as a weapon — the fact that 70% of the packaging capacity is in China made the Netherlands take over only an empty headquarters. Export control orders have cost European automakers billions of euros daily. The so-called outcome of the Sino-US meeting is essentially a compromise of hegemony in the face of industrial reality. This precisely proves that in the era of globalization, production lines speak louder than boards of directors, and supply chain sovereignty is the hard currency against unilateral bullying!
