Arming with gun? I don't think you know what's going on.

So does than mean China needs to increase military spending so that it can deal with both the US and Europe at the same time just in case EU changes its plans?
If the escalation and provocation from Taiwan and US really warrant so, there are many ways to bring Taiwan to heel without invasion, in increasing severity:
- Nationalize all Taiwan factories in China. Since UN recognize one China this is strictly speaking an internal affairs.
- Cease all trade with Taiwan
- Cease all travel with Taiwan
- Blockade the ports of Taiwan
- Missile attack on strategic industrial areas, after adequate evacuation warning given to ensure no civilian casualties
All of these should have minimal diplomatic effect as long as Taiwan and USA are seen as the one provoking.

4 years is a very long time, anything could happen. The most important think for China is military and nuke power.
Chips for military and critical devices is already ~100 domestically produced. 7nm and below is good for high end smartphone and CPU. My desktop CPU is still Intel i7-6700K the first 14nm node .. and still the beast, faster than any laptops with big margin
Who knows, EU also wants to be more independent on semiconductor supply chain.
Perhaps they’re willing to supply to China once that is accomplished?
Yeah but what US is trying to do is deny China chip tech to force a war on TW. They will corner China.
It’s embarrassing enough that China claims TW as a province but TSMC can’t even sell to Huawei. Imagine this being expanded to all mainland companies. It's not only a tech independence issue, but a sovereignty issue. And US is violating Chinese sovereignty.
All I know is that TSMC has scorched earth policy and will not leave anything for the mainland. The engineers will also escape to the US to reestablish TSMC there.
On the other hand, Taiwan knows that TSMC is a significant bargaining chip and if the US gains lead over TSMC again, then Taiwan is forfeit. US has been pressuring TSMC to build that Arizona EUV fab to supply US F-35s and etc... US would actually prefer to have TSMC and its talent as a US company or part of Intel.

Decoupling is multifaceted. Not just technology. Not just China and US led western countries.
Eerily similar, US set up a strategic trap against Soviet. The forming of anti Soviet sentiment in Muslim world due to Afghan invasion.
Today, US employing the xinjiang genocide scheme attempt to break up China and Muslim world.
Also China see another strategic trap by US from India border conflict. That's why China sucked it up and shelve the conflict with India for now. It's a trap.

@Tyler what's the use of military build if you rely on others for your basic component to make it work. For the next 5 years the objective is to be self sufficient in all aspect of chip production processes and equipment from 28nm (basic for industrial use) up to 7nm (consumer uses), can China achieve those goal? for 28nm tech its a certainty for 7nm absolutely after that in 2025 let see what the next administration will do cause they don't have any ammunition left to bargain with, and with a peer opponent, war is not an option.
@Oldschool they need to bomb the Arab and Muslim world to laid their case...LOL, The first 2 months in Biden Administration and the first thing they do is bomb Syria...LOL yeah China is committing genocide in Xinjiang heheehe tell it to the Marines.
China must urgently build up its carrier strike groups and hopefully have setup at gwarda and at Myanmar to protect it's commercial sea lanes. If China has to bypass Malacca
Hopefully by 2025, China has 4 carrier strike groups at it's disposal.
Chinese sats and beidou CANNOT use US chips numb numb. NIO uses NVIDIA but we have local GPUs for that and even then those don't need 5nm genius. DJI can use other chips than Intel, it's not even the most advanced. People use it due to branding, this will spur a lot of new Huaweis. A virus can't kill China and a trade war can't either. We always emerge stronger man, that's just how resilient we are, we are not Indians who talk.lol
