China’s industrial sector is suffering from a severe shortage of semiconductor chips, following U.S. sanctions and other supply problems, which is seriously slowing down the country’s manufacturing capacity. Recently, Tsinghua University announced the establishment of a new school that would help solve the country’s chip shortage problem, as Chinese leaders promote a Marxist approach to speed up chip production. But experts say China has a long way to go.
On April 22, Tsinghua University in Beijing announced the establishment of the School of Integrated Circuits that would help China build up its own chip market and cut its reliance on foreign suppliers. During the inauguration ceremony, Tsinghua’s president, Qiu Yong, said, “The skyscraper of a strong country cannot be built on the foundation of others. The key core technology must be in one’s own hands.”
Qiu also said that the school’s goal is to have its best scientists develop key core technologies; accelerate the cultivation of much-needed “high-level innovative talent”; provide strategic support for the development of technological “self-sufficiency and self-improvement.”
The announcement by Tsinghua came three days after Chinese leader Xi Jinping visited the university on April 19.
Due to U.S. sanctions and the impact of the pandemic, China is suffering a severe shortage of semiconductor chips. Following Volkswagen and NIO, Chinese automaker Great Wall Motors is also experiencing a choke point. Its two main production bases in Chongqing and Baoding city are rumored to stop production in May and June, affecting popular models such as the Haval H6, Great Wall Cannon, and Tank 300. Great Wall Motors, however, denied the rumors in a public statement on April 24.
In December last year, FAW-Volkswagen and Shanghai Volkswagen were forced to suspend production at some of their plants due to chip shortages.

So, what does the CCP do to solve this problem?
Faced with the situation of a dwindling chip supply, Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed the need of taking control of this sector and that universities need to follow the CCP’s leadership.
When visiting Tsinghua University on April 19, Xi said the first-class universities need to adhere to the leadership of the CCP by following its educational policies and upholding its marxist and communist ideologies. He also called on Tsinghua students to “sense the urgency of the country,” to have the courage to undo the choke point of key core technologies, and to draw strength and inspiration from the “lessons of Party history,” according to a report by Xinhua.
On March 15, a month prior to his visit to Tsinghua University, Xi had penned an article titled, “Strive to Become the World’s Leading Scientific Center and a High Ground of Innovation,” which was published in the Communist Party’s theoretical journal Quishi (or Seeking Truth). It called for a major effort in key areas and “choke point” areas, gathering “elite forces,” and striving to realize the strategic change “from following to running ahead and leading.”
F’ the CCP for their ACTS of WAR against America!
They are also causing the US to have a drought AGAIN:
Oh how ridiculous. Build nuclear powered desalinization plants along the coasts. Do I have to think of everything?
Kalifornia could do it too, if it weren’t run by people as bad as the CCP.
The largest chip manufacturer in the world is but a mere 90 miles away.
Easy enough solution for the Chinese. Pull random employees off the manufacturing line and execute them in front of their colleagues to encourage higher production. Future NASA scientists would hang slow employees from the rafters to encourage production.
Also, execute those who suggest innovations that are subsequently deemed to be negatively disruptive.
China hasn’t had an original idea since Christ was a cadet. It’s current “skyscraper” is built on intellectual property theft, spying, and CCP partnership with Western Cos. doing business in mainland China. China is a total joke when it comes to original innovation and ideas from its own hands. Don’t kid yourself.
