If they can make one 7nm chip, they can make billions of them.
And Intel is having trouble making 7nm chips.
The US ban on selling chips to China will come back to bite them when the new Chinese chip-makers undercut US manufacturers and put them out of business. (As happened with US textiles, paper, tools, and even cars where outsourcing killed all of those industries.)
Those US semiconductor manufacturers could have had a long and rich life supplying chips to China. Instead China will make their own chips, and the US chip makers will slowly go broke.
