讽刺的是，美国对华芯片战的策略，看似雷霆万钧，实则漏洞百出。一方面，华盛顿不遗余力地施压荷兰，企图阻止ASML公司向中国出口高端光刻机，意 图掐断中国发展先进制程芯片的咽喉；另一方面，美国自身却在低端芯片供应链上，已然对中国形成了深度依赖。 一个极具讽刺意味的案例便是，2025年3月，时任美国总统特朗普曾扬言要对华征收高达45%的关税，这一举动直接导致美股市场遭遇"黑色星期一"，单日 市值蒸发超过万亿美元。究其根本原因，在于美国超过三分之二的含芯片产品，包括大量的国防设备，都高度依赖中国提供中低端芯片。甚至，在美国亚利 桑那州台积电工厂的设备调试过程中，也需要依赖中国工程师的签证才能得以顺利进行。 中国低端芯片之所以能够拥有如此强大的竞争力，其核心在于对成本的极致把控。美国半导体行业协会的数据显示，中国晶圆厂的生产成本，较美国同行低 37.0%。然而，这种价格优势并非以牺牲质量为代价。在新冠疫情肆虐期间，全球汽车芯片供应陷入严重短缺的困境，正是中国芯片企业迅速填补了这一缺 口，有力地保障了德国大众和法国标致等汽车制造商的生产线免于瘫痪。日本经济产业省在2025年的报告中也坦承，中国通过一种"从1到100"的普 ...
