Preface
In recent years, the rapid rise of the mainland has aroused great resonance in the world, and the United States, which claims to be the "world hegemon," has also felt a deep sense of crisis, and has launched an all-round blockade of the mainland in order to maintain its own position.
The confrontation between Chinese and American chips has become the main battlefield of the Sino-US war in recent years, and the United States has recently strengthened the chip blockade on the mainland, but what the Americans did not expect is that such behavior has given up the chip market to the mainland.
The United States has obviously deepened the blockade, so why does it say that it has ceded the market to the mainland?

The top level of the United States made two moves in a row
The chip war between China and the United States has now entered a white-hot stage, and both sides have also made moves in the field of chips, both wanting to win this war without gunpowder in one fell swoop.
And the United States has been expanding the scope of the blockade in recent years, wanting to curb the development of chips on the mainland at one time, and recently, the United States has made two moves in a row to completely control the mainland.
On May 7, 2024, U.S. President Joe Biden personally signed to revoke the license of U.S. semiconductor giant Intel to sell products to the mainland's chip market.

The bosses of the country have spoken in person, so the little brothers below have also followed suit and followed Biden's pace.
On May 8, 2024, U.S. Secretary of Commerce Raimondo once again publicly stated at a hearing in the U.S. House of Representatives that in order to safeguard national security, U.S. chip companies are prohibited from selling chips to China.
This move of the United States is no longer a small means under the table, but a bright use of the country's power to curb the development of the chip industry.
As the world's No. 1 economic giant, the United States has a very strong ability to call for wind and rain in the world, and every move of the United States will set off a big storm in the world, and many countries that have been suppressed have deeply experienced this.

However, the opponent of the United States this time is the continent, which is the second largest economy in the world, and in the face of the continuous attacks of the United States, the mainland is not surprised, because the mainland has already undertaken a lot of such habitual tricks.
So what kind of suppression has the United States carried out on the mainland?
The usual means of the United States
Since the beginning of the mainland's modernization and development, the mainland has made all-out efforts to develop in various fields, and the mainland has gradually developed from an industrial country famous for its manufacturing industry to a high-tech field.
As the saying goes, people are afraid of becoming famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and the mainland has gained a lot in the international community and has become a leader in many fields, and this is bound to touch the interests of some countries.
Soon the United States is a cautious eye online again, with the usual style of competition but I will fight pressure, starting from the Trump administration, the United States has imposed a blockade on a number of technological fields on the mainland, and its strength in the field of chips is unprecedented.
Not only have "black hands" frequently appeared in various fields, but the "mouth" of the United States has never been idle, and it has repeatedly smeared the mainland in various fields in public, either openly ridiculing or openly opposing it.
For a time, whenever the mainland made a breakthrough in certain fields, the United States would issue a statement at the first time, hoping to report it faster than the mainland's own media, and it became the first to praise the mainland's scientific research projects.
For example, the mainland's recently launched Chang'e-6 will complete the first lunar sampling in human history, and the head of NASA quickly and publicly stated that he wants to defeat the mainland in public opinion.
This year, the US blockade has become even more intense, and in just one month in April, it has successively blockaded and suppressed three enterprises on the mainland.
On April 7, the U.S. court notified Hytera that it would prohibit the sale of intercom products; On April 24, the Biden administration established a clause requiring TikTok to secede from Chinese companies; On April 26, the U.S. Congress blacklisted DJI, banning it from being sold in the U.S.
The United States seems to be happy with such unjust unilateral sanctions, and each time the explanation to the outside world is very similar – to safeguard national security.
Such an explanation that borders on vexatiousness certainly does not work, but the United States does not seem to care about what others say, and the appeals of local companies and its own people are even more directly ignored, and they have almost lost their "sanity".
In the face of the strict measures of the United States, will the mainland collapse at once?
The reaction of the market
In fact, in the face of the strong blockade of the United States, all aspects of mainland chips may be affected to a certain extent at the beginning, but over time, the mainland will definitely come up with corresponding means to resolve it, and the feedback from the market is the best example.
The United States seems to have forgotten that New China is no longer the country that was slaughtered by others before liberation, we have come out of the war, and our resistance to pressure is no longer a grade, and if the United States cannot defeat us at one time, we will become stronger and stronger.
Without the influence of external technology, the mainland is more determined to take the road of independent research and development, and the mainland's technicians have been deeply encouraged to continue to develop chip technology exclusive to the mainland day and night.
The current domestic gallium nitride laser chip is the best proof of this.
GaN laser chips have great development prospects due to their wide application in many professional fields, but at the same time, the technical requirements are also very high.

In the past, the mainland cooperated with foreign companies to carry out R&D and production, but after the blockade in the United States, mainland personnel also realized the importance and continued to carry out independent research and development and design in the field of gallium nitride laser.
After achieving a technological breakthrough, Continental's self-developed gallium nitride laser chips have benefited from the impact of Continental's completion of the industrial chain, and have won unanimous praise in the international market with lower prices and newer technologies.
And there are many, many more examples like this in the mainland, and for a time, domestic chips have gained a broader market in the world, and the competitor United States has been suppressed vigorously.
And China, as the world's largest consumer market for chips, has always been very huge for the import of chips, and the successful supplement of domestic chips has caused great losses to the former American chip manufacturers, and the turnover of many companies has plummeted.
Facts have proved that the international chip market is inseparable from the support of China's forces, and the urgent response of the market represents everything, and the illegal blockade of the United States will eventually be sanctioned by the market.
epilogue
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the continuous moves of the United States that the US blockade has not achieved the expected results, which precisely shows that the powerful upgrading and vitality of the mainland's technological forces have once again proved to the world that justice will eventually triumph over darkness, and all unjust unilateral sanctions will be forcefully counterattacked.
