If the US is willing to "卖儿卖女"/"sell their children", then why not?
During his visit to Riyadh in December, Xi called on Arab states to remain “independent and defend their common interests,” adding that China “supports Arab states in independently exploring development paths suited to their national conditions and holding their future firmly in their own hands.”

And all of the engineers, too.
plus the research team and their wifes/husbandes and children move to China.
This suggests to me that Taiwan's government fails to understand where it stands vis a vis the EU. Even if Taiwan disappears, Intel and Samsung will always sell chips to the EU. That will never change. In contrast, Taiwan is toast without diplomatic and military support from the West. There will definitely be decision makers in the EU government that will be offended by Taiwan's attitude here. Very bad move.
it was UAE that use his inexperience to divide Yemen and create opening for UAE. Those sitting in UAE are more shrewd.What MBS got wrong is that he overestimated his military and country's power, and that's how Iran turned it around against SA. Recent years it seems that he has gotten some of his brain back and he is making shrewd moves though.

Has/will the Silicon Valley Bank cause(d) a series of bank run?
This kind of deal is not likely to happen but hypothetically if it were then it would be under the table... the West would never admit openly because of its weak economic position it was forced to give away its crown jewels...Over reliance on outsiders is the original sin that caused this problem in the first place. Their data, CAD files, papers and code is already their embedded efforts spanning years. Having these people actually work in China would hold back development of native researchers. That's exactly what happened for Chinese gas cars, it took BYD and Geely breaking the model to change.
Nobody working in these fields is stupid, sometimes you just need a hint of an idea or a small bit of help, especially at this point in development.
