2026's China it's very different to Nixon's China. They basically became themselves the factory of the whole world while spending trucks of money on R&D.
For instance, the US grey CS and AI with brute force. Intel's designs are like that. The Chinese's motto it's kinda like Unix, less is more. But also doing far more per cicle, as MIPS CPU's. Just have a look at what Deepseek can do with a far less powerful machine.
Yes, there's a gap between Intel CPU's and the Chinese ones, but it's shortening over time. Also, if you can achieve less per cycle by optimizing (and with less power) in the end you can just cluster several CPU's with a similar power usage and win by doing parallel processing.
