You are confusing b2b and b2c.
Each company and each industry is different. YMTC sells computer products that regular consumers would buy. But regular consumers wouldn't buy machines from SMEE. Why would SMEE need advertisement, when few companies would ever need to know their products?
The thing is that each company has its policies that are none of your business.
Wrong. One can be a market economy and still have strategic sectors for select clients that are not advertised. The US does it too, especially in their MIC And DARPA. besides there is a tech war currently and the market economy concept is thrown out the window, especially by the USA. So Unless you feel the US is not a market economy, that argument doesn’t hold water. btw, where’s my apology?
you know before the US goverment derailed the own companies for the sake of national security, back them when US semiconductors companies and some experts in the field still have some decision power in DC before this overpaid national security think tankers took over the decisions DC, they warned that without US tools Chinese fabs will become black boxes, that the US would lose control on who this fab sell this chips.
I think geopolitics tends to make things less transparent, looks the Chinese space program. Different grade of transparency, that is what it is. for publicly traded companies like Naura they need some transparency to entice investor. For private owned companies like SMEE, they would prefer to be less transparent, a lot private owned companies all over the world are not necessary very transparent. Overall will be up to the companies to decide their level of transparency according to their needs and situations to protect their overall supply chain from geopolitical crap, but in sum there could be some loss of transparency.
That do not means that they will not advertise their products, depending on the situation, that could mean that their will less upfront about the R&D, sells, future developments. A more if they are private owned. For example an EUV tool that will only be be used and codevelop for the moment for some Chinese companies could be a private arrangement between the companies that will be use the tool and the manufacturers. Different from ASML that have to entice new clients.
Alright, I would say none of this is really helpful discussion. Every company needs to make their own assessment of where they are at and disclose as appropriate. I'm not a fan of this discussion getting rehashed every couple of days. Just saying SMEE hasn't developed anything because its secretive (despite 02 project lead saying otherwise) is imo a needless provocation and not helpful to this thread. I think it's best that we all wait for further news.
Let's stop here @tonyget and anyone else that wants to respond to him.

Seems like you don't know anything about how airline industry works.
and they went silent after the sanctions started.
If they have a captive market, then they don't need to advertise anything. See SMIC as an example.
not likely. the memory industry as a whole saw overcapacity and are now cutting production.
b2b does almost zero advertising to the public and in fact, sometimes even placing an order as an industry insider, but not within their ecosystem so to speak, is somewhat troublesome.
