Previously, when Lao mei forced chip companies such as TSMC and Samsung to hand over their core corporate secrets, almost everyone knew that Lao Mei was going to make a big move again.
Nowadays, not only TSMC and Samsung have handed over secrets in desperation, but the scope of Laomei's blow has also expanded to the world, and almost all chip companies around the world have handed over their core secrets. Everyone was trembling in their hearts, and no one knew what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the old beauty. Sure enough, the two "new regulations" recently issued by Lao Mei have made China's chip companies feel the danger once again.
The EUV lithography machine blockade is further tightened
As we all know, due to the technical blockade of Chinese enterprises by Lao Mei, ASML has been ordered by Lao Mei le not to sell to China since it just manufactured the EUV lithography machine. AsML, because it was held by Lao Mei with the core technology, finally had to obey Lao Mei's orders and became an accomplice of Lao Mei in blocking China's chip industry.
After Lao Mei began to launch a blockade against Huawei, Lao Mei changed the rules. ASML can not carry out technical exchanges and cooperation with any Chinese enterprises in EUV lithography machines, and it cannot hand over the equipment to Chinese companies in any way, otherwise Laomei will impose very severe penalties on ASML. In addition, Lao Mei also stipulates that ASML must be audited by Lao Mei before supplying it to foreign countries, and only after passing the audit can Lao Mei be able to trade normally.
This regulation of Laomei not only restricts the normal trade of ASML, but also makes Chinese companies completely lose the possibility of introducing EUV lithography machines. However, since Lao Mei hit everyone's core secrets, Lao Mei has further increased the supervision of EUV lithography machines.
Some time ago, Laomei issued new regulations, deepening the export control of ASML, requiring ASML to supply lithography machines even for foreign enterprises in China, which means that the export control objects of EUV lithography machines are not limited to Chinese enterprises. In addition to anger, domestic netizens fell into contemplation, what is the significance of Lao Mei's doing this? There is no doubt that this time, although the target of laomei's new regulations is foreign enterprises, laomei actually targets Chinese companies.
Some time ago, Huawei launched a new 9006C chip, which not only has a very strong performance strength, but more importantly, it is also a 5nm chip, and even surpasses Huawei's previous generation flagship chip Kirin 9000 in the manufacturing process. This makes Lao Mei confused, Huawei has not been cut off from the supply of 5nm chips, China's domestic companies do not have the ability to produce 5nm chips, who is giving Huawei the 5nm chips?
According to this trend of Lao Mei, it may have been through the core secrets of various enterprises, found some abnormalities, it is likely that China's domestic foreign companies to Huawei OEM 5nm chip, so Lao Mei ordered that ASML is not allowed to supply EUV lithography machines to foreign companies in China.
Twelve tech companies in China are restricted
After everyone handed over the core secrets, it did not take long for Lao Mei to blockade 12 technology companies in China. The forms of blockade are various, some have been cut off from the supply chain of core components, some have been restricted from trade exchanges, and some core technology authorizations have been withdrawn. What is surprising is that although the restriction methods used by Lao Mei for these companies are various, Lao Mei is almost the key to the trick, which has directly hit many companies.
Some of these companies are domestic technology giants, such as New Sanhua, Guodun Quantum, etc.; some are enterprises with great relationship with Huawei and are based on Huawei's help, such as Yunxin Microelectronics, Zhongke Microelectronics and other enterprises. At this point, Lao Mei finally exposed her ugly face, and the important reason why Lao Mei wants to get everyone's core secrets is to control the entire chip industry.
After having the core secrets, Lao Mei can accurately strike at these enterprises, which will make the targeted enterprises miserable, and if you want to avoid being targeted by Lao Mei, you can only obediently obey. This behavior of Laomei is likely to ruin the entire chip industry, people often say that monopoly is the beginning of decay, and This behavior of Laomei undoubtedly wants to monopolize the entire chip market.
When Laomei is dominant in the chip industry, Laomei will naturally think about how to keep the family business, thus gradually reducing the frequency of technology updates, which is also the reason why Laomei has been overtaken by China in many industries. If such a thing happens again, it will be a fatal blow to the global chip industry, which will not only reduce the speed of technological updates, but may even go backwards. And Lao Mei will eventually become a sinner of history.
summary
All in all, Lao Mei's approach has made chip companies around the world feel a sense of crisis, and if this situation is allowed to continue to develop, every company will not be able to survive. Therefore, everyone should unite to break the blockade monopoly of the old United States, so that we can strive for better development space for ourselves.
The drawbacks are prominent! After TSMC and other companies handed over the data, worrying things still happened
The two new regulations of the Old United States "sword" Chinese enterprises, all because Samsung and other companies handed over core data?
