Employees in China of asemi are instructed to ignore directives from the Netherlands headquarters.

Foreign media: Nexperia China branch told employees to ignore instructions from the Netherlands headquarters as the dispute between China and the Netherlands escalates.

The Dutch government took over the management of Nexperia under pressure from Washington, while China has restricted its chip exports. The Chinese management of Nexperia asked employees to only follow instructions from the local team and report "external pressures" to HR. The Netherlands headquarters accused the Chinese branch of spreading "false information," but both sides are currently in a state of confusion.

Nexperia mainly produces automotive semiconductors, with 80% of its products coming from China. This incident has already affected the European automotive supply chain. The Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs will meet with Chinese officials to try to resolve the issue.
