Wikipedia says tires, engines and avionics to be sourced from existing European/ American suppliers. Likely until they can come up with chinese engines, avionics and tires that won’t cause it to skid off the runway or fall out of the sky.

I love 737’s. A reliable workhorse with a great safety record.
But, don’t laugh at the Chinese. This plane will be a threat to Boeing. After all, since Clinton’s era, trade secrets and know-how has not trickled, but FLOWED to the Red Chinese. They make assemblies and parts for all sorts of folks.
They are both a commercial and military threat to us that we must be prepared to counter and overwhelm. There is no “co-existing” with these people, any more than with muslims.

Outsource those components from the West they can’t make up to current world standard at this time, then reverse engineer them to produce their own versions...
The Commies have always been very good at copying the technology of the West...Added bonus of savings of development costs...Money saved can be plowed into production...
If it ain’t Boeing, I’m not going...
