Open robbery + power grab! The Netherlands' actions against Chinese enterprises will surely face countermeasures.
Foreign media reported today: "The Dutch government, citing concerns over the potential transfer of key technologies, has taken intervention measures against Anpec Semiconductor, a subsidiary of Chinese chip manufacturer Wen Tai Technology, freezing the company's assets. Wen Tai Technology accused the Dutch government of using fabricated national security excuses to freeze Anpec's global operations, emphasizing that the company will never yield to external political pressure and has initiated all legal and diplomatic channels to demand the Dutch government revoke its decision."
The Netherlands' move can be called "open robbery," an unreasonable suppression driven by political manipulation.
Anpec Semiconductor is headquartered in the Netherlands and is one of the world's largest manufacturers of basic chips, supplying chips for the automotive and consumer electronics industries. However, the Dutch government, under the guise of 'national security,' joined three foreign executives to stage a 'power grab' against Wen Tai Technology. This landmark event in the politicization of the global semiconductor industry has torn off the last veil of commercial rules.
The Netherlands' actions have completely overturned perceptions: they not only violate its proclaimed principles of market economy and fair competition but also openly trample on international trade rules, representing naked discrimination against Chinese enterprises. Previously, the Netherlands had collaborated with the United States, restricting exports of chip manufacturing equipment to China through ASMI Company, participating in the technological encirclement of China. If the Netherlands continues to intensify its suppression, we can fully implement countermeasures —— the chip manufacturing equipment relies heavily on rare earth raw materials. If China strengthens control over these raw materials, it will directly cut off the "food source" of the Dutch supply chain, making them pay the price for their inappropriate behavior.
