With the release of Huawei's new mobile phone, the US's aloof "spectator" status has been broken.
U.S. lawmakers even came up with a "big move" to completely block technology exports to China. What does it mean? We found seven inches of the viper.
However, the chain effect caused by Huawei is not over yet
Recently, the U.S. government signed the Biden administration’s voluntary commitment agreement on artificial intelligence, which became their life-saving straw
The companies that signed relevant agreements this time include eight companies including Nvidia and IBM, plus seven artificial intelligence giants such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft that had signed in July, a total of 15 companies
These 15 companies need to take what the White House calls "security" as their first principle before discussing the development of artificial intelligence. It can be said that this is an action taken in the national interest, or it can be said that the White House has exerted pressure on the giants of the high-tech industry and forced them to sign.
To use an analogy, it is a kind of capital that hands over the "deed of sale" to politicians. In this round, because of the intervention of the Biden administration, capital temporarily chose to compromise. It is obvious that the United States, on its own, has not only hindered the development of Chinese technology companies, but has also not spared its own enterprises.
It seems that the United States is really anxious this time. This move is not "hurt the enemy a thousand and damage itself eight hundred", but "would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go."
In fact, the fact that the United States can have such a big reaction reveals two key points:
First of all, the field of AI is a high-end technology that plays an important role in China’s development path and can hinder China’s development
Second: China’s breakthrough in chip technology has opened the door to the US blockade.
Starting from these two points, we can understand the reason why the United States is in a panic
First of all, the reason why American high-end companies can become industry leaders is because of their hegemonic position. Thinking back to Japan's glorious past, Japan's economy quickly collapsed after being sanctioned by the United States. Let’s take a look at South Korea’s Samsung. Although its chip technology is at the forefront of the world, the largest share is held by the United States
So, the reason why American companies can survive is entirely due to the power of the government.
Rewritten content: Secondly, hegemony relies on military power, and military power requires economy as its foundation. For the United States, economy and hegemony are mutually supportive. At present, China has the most complete industrial system. In the process of upgrading from mid- to low-end industries to high-end industries, the United States intervenes to ensure its authoritative position in high-end industries.
China has broken through the technological blockade, and its breakthrough from zero to one means it poses a threat to the authority of the United States. In addition, the United States is also worried that it cannot compete with China
If you can't beat your opponent, it means you can't make money. The United States has lost its economic strength but still wants to maintain its hegemony. This is simply an unrealistic fantasy. Therefore, the United States will inevitably prevent China from entering the field of artificial intelligence
It now seems that restricting the product exports of relevant companies, setting up "small courtyards and high walls", and allowing more companies to "voluntarily" set up "guardrails" are essentially stifling China's independent innovation and development prospects in the field of AI.
This is a desperate tactic by the United States, and it is also a sign that the Guizhou donkey is at its wits end.
The United States has never reflected on whether its suppressive policy against China in recent years has gone astray, even to this point. Therefore, it can be said that the United States will do its best to suppress China no matter now or in the future
China will never sit still and wait for death. China will go all out to resist the United States' attempt to lead other countries to contain China. Historically, we have always behaved this way
The Chinese can independently develop missiles and have achieved a leading position in the aerospace field. Similarly, the Chinese can also achieve brilliant achievements in the chip field today with their own efforts
In short, if the United States wants to collect the "deed of sale", then let it collect it. If it bans the export of products to China, then let it ban it. However, the United States can only watch the Chinese people's efforts.
