@kukulroukul4698 simply not true, the us produces the operating system run on most home computers. The Chinese manufacture most of the integrated circuits used in all forms of electronics. They and the US hold patents for critical parts of the 5G network, with the patents being woven into the standards. Even the us is dependent on Chinese component manufacture. It will take decades to reverse this, as it has taken decades to get into this situation. Catching up will be hard, given the Chinese lead and the fact they are not standing still. China has greatly increased its exports to the world over the last year, that means it has significantly more western money to spend on R&D, while the Western nations have proportionally less.
