Copy the model of ASML. Build something really complicated that no one else can easily copy.

  First what would that be? Second you can't sustain an entire country on one company

    It’s a model to copy. Ie move higher up the innovation chain.

      That's what we've been doing for a long time. But that's not possible with today's China anymore. They are as innovative as the rest, if not more so.

  China is copying them though. They are still behind, but they are catching up.

    > China is copying them though. They are still behind, but they are catching up. They have been "catching up" for the past 20 years.

      China is producing 7nm chips and working on 5nm. The lead has shrunk to be almost insignificant. People on internet forums are obsessed over "bleeding edge" fabs, when the vast majority of semiconductor products are designed for a specific process and kept in production for at least a decade. If beating Taiwan is your definition of "catching up", then you're basically making China's status as a legitimate semiconductor manufacturer contingent on the obsolescence of everyone else's status. That's not very fair and it's not even something to brag about. Once you lose the grin, it would be game over for you.
