Republican senators have urged the Biden administration to plug a "loophole" in former President Trump-era export controls to tighten restrictions on SMIC, China's premier chipmaker, and to make SMIC a "clear national security threat."
The United States is trying to completely ban the soft and hard technology of American chips from entering China, with the purpose of comprehensively suppressing the development of China's chip industry. The CHIP technology of the United States is far ahead of China, but also ahead of the rest of the world, the current vast majority of countries in the world's chips, chip manufacturing machines in the use of the core technology is basically mainly derived from the United States. Although we have invested heavily in supporting the development of the chip industry in various ways in recent years, SMIC, as a leading chip company in China, has only just been able to realize the 14nm process, and now the United States has reached 5nm and 7nm process.
The situation that the United States hopes to see is to continue to maintain a far leading edge in chip technology, but it is not confident, and it regards the development of China's chip industry as a "national security threat" to the United States, and constantly maintains the hegemony of the United States by refreshing the bottom line. However, it can also be seen that China's progress is indeed making Americans feel like needles, so they will continue to make shady moves, which shows that what is more afraid and afraid is the United States, which is afraid of China's development and growth, and it is afraid of China's threat to its position.
