Exactly. They want to maintain their insane margins with their oligopoly. The second you get a viable cheap competitor, it will all come crashing down.

Of course, it's a massive undertaking to catch up enough to be feasible. But China has the manufacturing experience, and a government initiative could allocate an insane amount of resources behind it if they were motivated to.

So it's obviously in NVidia's best interest to deter it with appeasement.

Also I assume things move much faster there unlike here where every move needs to be scrutinised and approved by 400 different people on 350 different committees.
