Last night, the Singapore Straits Times published an article: "The Netherlands followed the U.S. footsteps, citing a law that has never been used in history, and claimed national security to control the Chinese-owned Nexperia Semiconductor, attempting to transfer it to local companies, and spreading false information about China transferring technology. Nexperia Semiconductor currently produces semiconductor wafers in its factories in Germany and the UK, which are then sent to China for packaging and testing. About 80% of the final products are completed in China. Europe cannot fill the capacity gap, and customers will not easily follow the new entity. This move has triggered a supply chain earthquake, with automotive companies from the U.S., Europe, and Japan warning of shutdowns. 86% of European leading enterprises are affected. Now, multiple countries are urgently mediating, proving the foolishness of politicizing commerce. The short-sighted actions of the Netherlands have damaged the European contract brand!"

[Cunning] The farce of the Netherlands grabbing the factory is nothing more than a self-destructive game played by the vassal of hegemony! The Dutch government brought out a long-forgotten law to forcibly control Nexperia Semiconductor, which is merely a clumsy performance to serve the U.S. as a vanguard. Fabricating lies about technology transfer as a cover, but forgetting that 80% of its production is tied to China. Europe can't make up for the gap, and this iron fist first hits itself. Nearly 90% of European leading enterprises are affected. The automotive companies from the U.S., Europe, and Japan collectively stopped, and the supply chain earthquake shattered the disguise of the spirit of contracts. The embarrassment of multiple countries urgently mediating exposed the short-sightedness of tying trade to the geopolitical chariot. The Netherlands wants to be a pawn of hegemony, but first crushed the foundation of European industry. The most ironic part of this farce is: the Netherlands has gained the shell of the company, but cannot grasp the lifeline of the industrial chain. The Sea Merchant has only empty fame, and is nothing more than this!
