    My point is there isn’t much between them. They already have one of the biggest chip making industries and they already bought the stuff to move forward.

    What can we do?

      If a large chunk of their production is exported the market could be influenced to reduce the amount they can export, such as expanding US chip production to replace Chinese imports. Then their industries would be less profitable and have to spend time scaling down to meet the lower demand, which would also reduce their capacity to develop.

      I think that fits between one extreme and another?
