If the Netherlands wants to take the lead, the PLA will shut down the lithography machine if it dares to attack Taiwan

In recent years, the United States has begun to sign a series of agreements with the Netherlands and Japan to prevent the Netherlands and Japan from exporting high-end chip manufacturing equipment to China. The United States also tries to prevent China's achievements in the chip field through this means. Although China has a large number of chip localization capabilities, in fact, in the process of localization, it also needs the cooperation of photolithography machines from the Netherlands and Japan, and it is not easy to develop a photolithography machine by ourselves. In cooperation with the United States in the chip war, today's Netherlands is even more clear that if the PLA dares to launch a unified action against Taiwan, it will shut down the lithography machine, making all the world's most advanced chip manufacturing equipment stop operating.

The United States will shut down a large number of advanced lithography machines of TSMC at the first time. Even if the PLA controls TSMC, it will also obtain a batch of unusable lithography machines. Zhan Yan believes that since Taiwan's lithography machine can be remotely controlled by the Netherlands, many of the mainland's lithography machines will also be remotely controlled by the Netherlands, making it impossible for the mainland to continue chip production.

This also shows that western countries are at a loss of skills and can only talk about photolithography. If China can have more domestic chip manufacturing equipment in the future, it will be useless for China to shut down the photolithography machine remotely. Wen/Iris
