This time, China really wants to kill chickens and show them to monkeys. China really can't bear it. Finally, it wants to kill the chicken to show the monkey. Who is this chicken? Not America, not Japan, not Germany, France, Britain, Australia and the Philippines, but the Netherlands.
The Netherlands, this country, in history started off the sea trade, in the bone with a few risks and calculations, but now in the major situation of the Chinese-American game, mistakenly selected the position, attempted to suppress Chinese enterprises to be loyal to the United States, but the result has made itself the only "chicken" pushed to the forefront.
The cause of the incident lies in a series of recent operations by the Dutch government. Nexperia is originally an important enterprise under China Wingtech Technology. As early as a few years ago, it became a Chinese-funded holding company through legal and compliant acquisition procedures.
After the acquisition, Nexperia not only did not reduce its investment in the Netherlands, but continued to expand its production scale. In the past five years, it contributed more than 100 million euros in tax revenue to the Netherlands, created a large number of local jobs, and increased its R&D investment by 50%.
Such a company, which contributed positively to the location of the company, was suddenly taken over by the Dutch government for so-called national security reasons.
The Dutch side not only froze Anselm Semiconductor’s assets worth as much as $147 billion, but also removed the company’s Chinese CEO, and forcibly transferred 99 percent of the company’s shares to a third party, leaving only a symbolic share to the Chinese side.
This naked coercive measure not only violates the basic rules of the market economy, but also exposes the Dutch government's short-sightedness and speculation in foreign policy.
The move of the Netherlands is not an isolated action, but closely following the pace of U.S. technological blockade against China. In recent years, the United States has constantly pressured its allies to restrict key equipment such as high-end light engraving machines exports to China, and the Dutch company Asma as a global giant in the field of light engraving machines, naturally became the object of U.S. focus.
In order to cater to the United States, the Dutch government did not hesitate to sacrifice the long-term interests of its own enterprises, and even took the initiative to attack Chinese enterprises in an attempt to show a tough stance in exchange for the political recognition of the United States.
However, this blind behavior ignores the deep economic and trade links between China and the Netherlands. China is not only an important market for many companies in the Netherlands, but also an indispensable part of the global supply chain.
Faced with the provocation of the Netherlands, China did not choose silence. The Chinese government quickly took countermeasures, and the Ministry of Commerce issued an announcement to implement export controls on specific key components of Nexperia's subsidiaries in China.
This initiative directly affected the supply chain of the company.As Anselm Semiconductor products are widely used in areas such as automotive electronics, the Chinese government's export restrictions quickly triggered a chain reaction.
A number of European and American automakers have issued warnings that if supply chains continue to be blocked, they may face the risk of cutting off parts and components next month.
The Netherlands had wanted to show good to the United States by suppressing Chinese enterprises, not thinking instead of disrupting the production order of its allies, such a practice of moving stones to their feet, let the international community see the hastiness and immaturity of its decisions.
There are profound strategic considerations behind China's choice of the Netherlands as a countermeasure target. In China's view, the Netherlands is neither the number one opponent like the United States, nor a huge economy like Japan and Germany, but its behavior is typically representative.
The Netherlands is an important member of the European Union and one of the traditional allies of the United States. Its behavioral pattern reflects the wavering mentality of some European countries between China and the United States.
By taking resolute measures against the Netherlands, China can send a clear signal to the entire West that any country will pay the corresponding price if it blindly follows the US’s unreasonable pressure on China.
This strategy of "killing chicken monkeys" avoids direct conflict with the United States and effectively deterred other potential followers.
The Dutch government's aggressiveness on the China issue has also caused dissatisfaction among its domestic business circles. Many Dutch enterprises have been deeply involved in the Chinese market for a long time and are well aware of the importance of maintaining good cooperative relations with China.
Although Asmail is under pressure from the United States, it still hopes to maintain business dealings with China on a commercial level. The political manipulation of the Dutch government has put these companies in a dilemma.
Some Dutch economic figures have openly stated that the government should focus on its own interests and not blindly follow external forces.This internal divide further weakens the backbone of the Dutch government's tough policy towards China.
From a more macro perspective, the Dutch events reflect profound changes in the current global political and economic landscape. With the improvement of China's comprehensive national strength, China no longer passively accepts the rules formulated by the West, but gradually turns to actively participating in and even leading the shaping of international rules.
In the field of science and technology, China has gradually broken the U.S. monopoly in operating systems through independent innovations such as the Hongmeng System; in the economic field, China has demonstrated its influence on global supply chains through precise countermeasures. What happened to the Netherlands will serve as a lesson for many countries in their policies towards China.
At present, the Dutch government has begun to realize the seriousness of the problem and attempts to communicate with China through diplomatic channels.H, China’s position on this issue is very clear: any country must respect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises, and unilateral bullying will never be tolerated.
Through this counter-measure, China not only safeguarded the interests of its own enterprises, but also demonstrated to the international community its determination to defend its economic sovereignty and development rights. It remains to be seen whether the Netherlands can learn from this incident and adjust its foreign policy.
But it is certain that China will continue to deal with all forms of injustice with a firm and rational attitude and steadily advance its development strategy in a complex and changing international environment.
