Removing him would mean admitting mistakes. No politician in the world likes to do that.
Apparently many on Chinese social media is asking the same question. Still we would probably never find out if he's personally responsible.
The Huawei situation definitely shows China is ill prepared in domestic chip replacement and its associated technology.
If I had to guess, he and many others in the government probably never thought US would go this far, sacrificing profits and market shares from its own firms. Before the trade war, China still believed that it could rely on "internationalized supply chains". This phase was a slogan commonly used in many official trade policy papers and news. I guess the tech war exceeded china's planned worse case scenario.
So, the sun shoots photons down at the panel, and the photon either hits or misses the electron, if it hits then you get power generation, if it misses you dont.
Dont be so sure. Companies also need licenses to supply huawei. At least some have already been granted. Perhabs smic can get some licenses, not for top equipment perhabs, but for some other.
Thats the key part. There isnt and there wont be no such option in the future.
By that time, it would look awkward for them to act like the big guy show boating all over the place.
SMIC is already under sanction by the US Govt, so it is very unlikely for the US to approve the sale of the latest Semiconductor Machinery to produce 7nm Chips.
SMIC might have already acquired this new equipment in their plans to produce the N+1 Chips, before being sanctioned.
It has been reported that SMIC in conjunction with other FABs have already stockpiled large quantities of parts and supplies and this will allow them to continue production of their ICs. With the stockpile, they may be able to continue production of 14nm and even the N+1 Chips. Eventually they will De-Americanise their FABs when the SMEE DUVL is ready for production.

China can't rely on US for their semiconductor equipment irrespective of who is in white house
China's tech industry relieved by Biden win - but not relaxed

SHANGHAI/BEIJING (Reuters) - China's technology industry, one of President Donald Trump's main targets in Washington's tussles with Beijing, hopes Joe Biden can create a more constructive relationship - but few think the rivalry will deescalate, executives and analysts say.
Trump's four-year term has already taught the industry the importance of self-reliance, and China's intentions to improve its domestic tech capabilities will not change, they said.
"When Biden takes office, tech companies in China might be relieved," said Fang Xingdong, director of the Consortium of Internet and Society at the Communication University of Zhejiang.
"At least, the United States is supposed to re-advocate openness, re-respect fair competition, and re-advocate innovation," Fang added. "However, in the high-tech field, competition and game theory will not end, and China and the U.S. will compete with each other with true innovation capabilities in the next decade."
Beijing has in recent months announced a new "dual circulation" model of growth to steer China's economy. This sees it reducing its reliance on overseas markets and technology by, for example, spending billions of dollars to encourage a domestic chip industry.
"It is possible that China and the United States may have a chance to negotiate to ease some of the technology issues," said an senior staff member at one of the blacklisted Chinese companies who declined to be named as he was not authorised to speak to the media.
"But it is difficult to change the long-term trend," he added. "The Trump administration has awakened the Chinese industry and development in the domestic industrial chain will continue to form a certain degree of independence."

Hi WTAN,
Are you referring this new equipment as a replacement for the already paid EUVL machine that had accidentally caught fire (ahem!!! sabotage by the American)?
