That's basically impossible to do at scale. When the US restricts commerce with an entity like ZTE, they require the US companies to make an effort to understand where the components are going to end up. In most cases, ignorance is not an excuse. So if a new company suddenly starts ordering the same parts at huge quantities in order to supply ZTE, then they will be immediately discovered and also subject to the restrictions. ZTE can probably use a range of existing suppliers to acquire parts but they probably would not escape harm because there are layers of middle-men getting added to the equation, and that's expensive.
