After Japan announced the ban, the incident suddenly reversed! Japanese media： We have been cheated.

　　The game between allies and the restrictions of the United States on Huawei have become a major focus of the semiconductor industry. In recent years, the United States has continuously increased its chip restrictions and even extended its export control to its allies in an attempt to occupy an advantageous position in the global scientific and technological competition. However, some facts reveal the secret intention of the US.

　　For the American memory chip giant Western Digital, getting the license to ship to Huawei is a great victory. As a global leader in 5G, Huawei has naturally become the target of US sanctions, and it has been included in the entity list, which has limited its chip supply. In this context, Huawei's competitors have also been affected.

　　In fact, a similar situation is no longer an isolated case. The contrast between Qualcomm and MediaTek is an example. Although Qualcomm has obtained the shipment license of 4G chips, MediaTek still cannot supply Huawei, and even 4G chips are restricted. This policy of favoring local enterprises has aroused great concern and vigilance of European semiconductor enterprises.

　　In order to defend their own interests, some European chip giants made a sound. Infineon, stmicroelectronics and other companies insist that they will not give up their business with Chinese mainland, and at the same time question the chip restrictions in the United States. ASML, in particular, was influenced by the US export control policy, and its president publicly questioned the US rules and expressed a clear attitude towards its dissatisfaction.

　　Japan has shown some blindness in this situation. Although the United States once imposed sanctions on Japan's semiconductor industry, which led to the end of its glorious period, Japan recently chose to cooperate with US restrictions and announced stricter export control measures. However, the facts show that the United States not only loosens water for American enterprises, but also secretly clarifies the rules so that they can export more equipment. Japan was obviously tricked by the US on this issue, and finally had to realize that it had been cheated.
