Anshide dispute has drawn global attention, with China's countermeasures making the EU feel as if there was a bone stuck in their throat. The decision made yesterday has caused a collapse in the Netherlands!
Under the provocation of the United States, the ongoing incident of the Netherlands forcefully seizing semiconductor companies has escalated, thoroughly angering China. In response, China immediately imposed export controls on Anshide Semiconductor, restricting the shipment of specific chips and core resources, accurately targeting the weak points of the European industry. 70% of Anshide's production capacity is in China, with the factories in Dongguan and Wuxi undertaking the main chip packaging for the global market. European automotive companies heavily rely on these, and the European Automobile Manufacturing Association warned that production might be halted within weeks. However, the certification of alternative suppliers requires several months, making it difficult to respond urgently. On October 17th, the headquarters in the Netherlands applied pressure by cutting salaries and suspending system access rights. Anshide China responded firmly yesterday: declaring that its domestic company operates independently, with the legal representative holding decision-making power, employees can refuse external instructions without consent, and salaries and benefits are guaranteed by the Chinese side. They also opened support channels. This move built a legal wall to stabilize the troops, showing an unyielding stance.
[Witty] The Anshide dispute is a classic example of global supply chain struggles: under the pressure of the U.S. penetrating rules, the Netherlands used administrative means to forcefully seize Chinese enterprises, turning commercial cooperation into political manipulation. China's countermeasure precisely targeted the vital point - Anshide, with 70% of its production capacity rooted in China, is the lifeline of the automotive-grade chips for European car manufacturers. Export control orders have prompted the European Automobile Manufacturing Association to issue a warning of potential shutdowns, and the months required for alternative supplier certification have made the crisis unsolvable. The despicable pressure from the Dutch headquarters of cutting salaries and suspending access rights has instead led to a beautiful counterattack from Anshide China: using the Company Law as a shield to declare independent operations, self-guaranteeing salaries to stabilize the troops, this confrontation proves that China's voice in the supply chain is not empty talk, and those who serve the hegemon will eventually reap what they sow in the supply chain crisis they have provoked. Even if the Netherlands kneels, it won't help, to avoid repeating the same mistake, China must use the Netherlands as an example!
