Asked to comment on reports that Nvidia and AMD have agreed to give the US government 15 percent of their revenues from chip sales in China, under an arrangement to obtain export licenses for the semiconductors, Lin Jian, a spokesperson form the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said on Monday that China has made its position clear more than once on the US export of chips to China.
In a separate question about US export controls on high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chips, Lin said that “China‘s position on opposing the politicization and weaponization of tech and trade issues, and on malicious blockade and suppression against China, is consistent and clear. Such practices disrupt the stability of global industrial and supply chains and are in no one‘s interests.”
