China and the United States held the fourth negotiation in Madrid, and the talks lasted for six hours on the first day. On the eve of the negotiations, Trump first embarked on sanctions on the Chinese side, attempting to put pressure on China, but did not expect the Chinese side to react quickly and was attacked by the anti-General.
On September 14, China and the United States held their fourth trade talks in Madrid, Spain, and the negotiations were still very long, the first day spoke for six hours and spoke late at night. The United States has many reasons to talk to China, such as stabilizing its economy, giving market confidence, solving the agricultural crisis of soybeans, and important rare-earth.
U.S. experts say directly that China is not in a hurry to reach an agreement with the United States.The United States has so many problems to be solved, Trump in the eve of China-U.S. contacts, but also to impose sanctions on China, this is to pressure on China?
On September 13th, local time, the United States imposed trade sanctions on 32 entities, 23 of which were in China, and claimed that two of them stole advanced technology from the United States.The Trump administration has taken these actions against China from the beginning of its first term and has continued to this day, until the day before the Madrid negotiations, Trump is still making such tricks.
This obviously puts pressure on China.Trump seems to have a softened attitude toward China, but has never really relaxed toward China. The United States is engaged in a two-line game, while shouting and negotiating, as if it wanted to make good relations with China, while occasionally making some sanctions against China, giving itself a void.
Thus, even if the United States withdraws some of the sanctions in the future, it looks like a concession, in fact, the United States has no real loss. However, this time the U.S. calculator did not play well, and China launched a counterattack at the first time.
China first condemned the U.S. sanctions, saying it was escalating unilateralism. Then the Ministry of Commerce issued an anti-dumping investigation announcement on the evening of September 13, this time directly targeting chips imported from the United States.From the announcement released by the Ministry of Commerce, the range of chips involved is very broad.
Including general-purpose interface chips used in the field of information and communication, chips used to control electric energy, and chips used in automobiles and other products. Once the anti-dumping investigation is established, the semiconductor chip industry in the United States will suffer a major blow.
The Chinese counterattack was rapid.The U.S. is most proud of its advanced technology, especially in the advanced technology in the field of chip semiconductors. Before dismantling the H20 chip, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce and the U.S. Treasury both declared that it was to make China buy U.S. chips, make China rely on U.S. advanced products, while the U.S. will not give China the most advanced chips, so that it can also protect the U.S. leadership.
The U.S. is very confident, it seems that China will be low in the field of semiconductors.This time the Chinese side hit is your most confident point, instead just hit the soft rib.
China dared to launch an anti-dumping investigation into the chip, because China has made no small breakthrough in the field of the chip.When the H20 chip was disbanded, the U.S. finance minister revealed that China has been able to manufacture chips with the same performance, and sanctions no longer make sense, but affect U.S. companies to make money.
China's chips are rapidly advancing, not relying on the U.S. chips, domestic products can also be used. And with less of the U.S., it also helps to expand the domestic chips market. The U.S. was very useful, now it has become China's knife to the U.S., but also hit the heart, several high-tech enterprises in the U.S. are tense, and technology stocks are obviously turbulent.
However, the Chinese side did not do things at the beginning. Not at the beginning to assume that the US chip dumping was established, after all, the two sides are negotiating, really to do so, that negotiation is difficult to go on. Originally the contradiction between the two sides is large, it is difficult to have results. Therefore, China is now just to investigate the United States, If the United States cooperates and the negotiating atmosphere is good, there should not be much move.
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that foreign media have recently revealed that the United States has received an invitation from China to visit China, and China invited Trump to come to Beijing for an interview. At present, there is no official response from the White House, and it is still unknown whether the situation is true or false. There will be an APEC summit next month, and China and the United States will also have the opportunity to meet.
This news is like a trial, or that the United States is waiting for the negotiations to come out. Then think about the meeting with China, from the U.S. attitude to the meeting before, if it goes well, maybe the Sino-U.S. will meet in the near future.
