China's chip ambitions shake up global tech industry
US export restrictions on advanced semiconductors have driven China to accelerate domestic chip development through heavy government subsidies and initiatives like Made in China 2025. Though China still lags behind the US, Taiwan, and South Korea in cutting-edge chip technology, it has captured 30% of the global legacy chip market, made progress in mid-tier processors (including 7-nanometer chips powering Huawei's latest smartphones), and its cost-effective AI solutions are gaining traction in the Global South, posing long-term competition to Western tech giants like Microsoft and Google.
