News U.S. Blacklists Two Major Chinese CPU Developers

Yes, indeed. Who are these warhawks trying to fool.

Did they really think a country that can produce top tier strategic weapons didn't have a contigency plan? Or that they never planned self sufficiency?

Decades of oppressing the Middle East has come back in full justice. This isn't a desert country. China is the real deal, even more real than Germany and the USSR ever was.

One more set of extra things for China to add to its to-do list of things to re-invent internally to break external dependencies. It will set it back by a couple of years but shouldn't be insurmountable.
They don't invent anything. What they can't reverse-engineer they steal through industrial espionage and hacking. They are just now starting to develop their own, internally designed jet engines after years of buying jet engines from Russia. And my guess is they reverse engineered those as well. Everything that is researched in China is not done for the benefit of humanity, but to further the aims of the PLA and the Communist Party.
