Awesome!
“The judgment is not wrong to me.”
The Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs has gotten out!
Nexperia had an accident recently. On October 14th, court documents in Amsterdam were made public. It clearly stated that the United States asked them to replace Chinese CEO Zhang Xuezheng before they were willing to remove them from the entity list. This matter was not an internal problem of the company, but political pressure. The Dutch Minister of Economy said that the court ruled it and had nothing to do with him, but secretly called the Americans and said that it was purely coincidence. Something was wrong when he heard it.
Zhang School政 wanted to exchange several foreign executives, as a result, he was opposed to being empty, the company was suddenly confused, the appearance of internal disputes, in fact, the United States was behind the back, they did not want to let Chinese people handle this enterprise, the Dutch government said in the mouth of judicial independence, the actual pretending to have seen, the court did not find any illegal evidence, but hard to withdraw, this is a legal matter, clearly a political bureau.
To understand this drama, we must first start with Anshi Semiconductor. It was originally part of Dutch giant NXP, but was later acquired by China's Wentai Technology, becoming an important pawn for China capital in the overseas semiconductor field.
Zhang Sheng, as the chairman of Zhongtai Technology, naturally took over Anse Semiconductor, taking over this enterprise with a deep European technological background.
When he took office, he was ambitious and wanted to make radical changes to the company, including the relocation of several foreign executives. This is a common operation in multinational companies, but I didn't expect that these fires had not yet been burned, and I was "overhead" first.
For a time, people were in panic within the company, and all kinds of gossip flew all over the sky. The outside world generally interpreted it as a typical internal power struggle.
However, is it really so simple? if it’s just a corporate struggle, why shock it to the national level and even let the United States get involved?As court documents are disclosed, a huge push-up hidden behind the scenes gradually emerges.
In the paper, it was written in black and white, and the U.S. clearly demanded that the Dutch government remove Chinese executives such as Zhang Sheng, as a condition for removing Anselmo Semiconductor from the U.S. “entity list.”
This "entity list" is not a good thing, and once it is included, it means that companies will be severely restricted in accessing U.S. technology, equipment and markets, simply wearing the curse of development.
It turns out that behind this seemingly internal personnel turmoil is the United States playing a big game. They do not want to see a semiconductor company with core technologies controlled by the Chinese.
At this time, the Dutch Minister of Economy's sentence "the court's judgment" became particularly ironic. She tried to cover up everything with the fig leaf of "judicial independence", claiming it was a normal result of Dutch legal process.
But another exposed call record made her lose her power instantly. Records show that after the court's verdict, she made a special call to the U.S. ambassador and vowed that the timing of the verdict was "purely coincidental" with the pressure from the United States.
This phone call was simply a confession without any force. While declaring to the public that it has nothing to do with it, while secretly "showing loyalty" to the Americans, this kind of two-faced operation is really eye-opening.
In the judgment of the court, the press did not find evidence that Zhang Schultz had any illegal or damaging the interests of the company, but still made the decision to withdraw from office.
The whole thing was like a carefully choreographed drama. Zhang Xuezheng wanted to lead a change within the enterprise, but instead became a victim of the international political game.
The company, also in this storm, shake and shake, the strategic direction is unknown, management turmoil, and employee morale is low.
The Dutch government, on the other hand, played a very embarrassing role. It wanted to safeguard its international image of "judicial independence" and "fair business environment", but did not dare to offend the powerful United States. Finally, it chose the most disgraceful way-muddle and dump the pot.
When the law can be easily figured out by politics, when the fate of a business can be arbitrarily rewritten because of nationality, we can’t help asking, how many unknown deals and compromises are behind this?
