Apparently the German and Dutch employees of a Chinese company used the state to steal a Chinese tech company. I expect nothing less than for them to be hunted down and dragged into a Chinese court for hefty imprisonment. Additionally, this is why I think squads of PAP should be attached to any CPC monitors at any major S&P500 company.

strenge also that this is the very sort of thing the west accused China of doing, that they would steal and nationalise their companies.

im not saying I advocate it, but it would karmic for say…Russian drones to suddenly appear over Dutch cities targeting everyone involved.

It's the Dutch government and Dutch and German executives at Nexperia colluding to rob a Chinese company of its ownership of Nexperia.

On 30 September 2025 (Netherlands time), the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy issued an Order to Nexperia, instructing that Nexperia and all its global subsidiaries, branches, and offices—30 entities in total—must refrain from making any adjustments to their assets, intellectual property, operations, or personnel. The measure is valid for one year.​

​

On 1 October 2025 (Netherlands time), Ruben Lichtenberg, a Dutch national who serves as the statutory director and Chief Legal Officer (CLO) of both Nexperia Holding and Nexperia Semiconductor, filed—with the support of two other executives, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Stefan Tilger and Chief Operating Officer (COO) Achim Kempe, both German nationals—an urgent petition before the Enterprise Chamber requesting a corporate investigation and immediate provisional measures on behalf of both Nexperia entities.​

​

On the same day, the Enterprise Chamber granted several emergency measures immediately, without a hearing, which took effect at once. These measures included suspending Mr. Zhang Xuezheng from his positions as executive officer of Nexperia Holding and non-executive director of Nexperia Semiconductor; suspending the operation of Article 3 of

of Nexperia Semiconductor, which defines the CEO’s duties and authorities; and placing all shares held by Wingtech subsidiary 裕成控股有限公司 Yuching Holding Limited (a Hong Kong-registered company and the sole shareholder of Nexperia Holding) under temporary management by an independent third-party trustee for management purposes, effective until the Enterprise Chamber’s oral hearing scheduled for 6 October 2025 and its subsequent ruling on the request for immediate relief.​

​

On the afternoon of 6 October 2025 (Netherlands time), the Enterprise Chamber held a hearing, and on 7 October 2025, it issued a ruling granting provisional relief, effective from that date until completion of the investigation or other final resolution of the case.​

​

The key measures are as follows: suspension of Mr. Zhang Xuezheng from his positions as non-executive director of Nexperia Holding and executive director of Nexperia Semiconductor; appointment of an independent, non-Chinese individual designated by the Enterprise Chamber as non-executive director of both Nexperia Holding and Nexperia Semiconductor, vested with decisive voting rights and the authority to independently represent both companies; and placement of all shares of Nexperia Semiconductor—except one—under the management of a court-appointed custodian, whose name will be designated and announced later, for management purposes.​

​

Nexperia was acquired by Wingtech in 2019. Since then, Wingtech invested heavily in R&D, resulting in massive revenue growth and sharp increase in gross profit margin. By October 2024, Nexperia became debt free after fully paying off all its previous debts from before the Wingtech acquisition.

Tbf, Israel has nukes and America is totally okay with it nor has anybody ever sanctioned it. When Pakistan tested nukes, most of the world put up economic sanctions.... except China, who increased economic support.

Frankly, I'm not very familiar with the nuclear history of India, Israel, and Pakistan.
However, the potential nuclear-armed regions discussed today clearly do not possess the conditions of these three countries. There is absolutely no need for the United States to allow its colonies to develop nuclear weapons. This would tantamount to weakening its control. The only option is to deploy its own nuclear weapons in these regions, rather than allowing these colonies to acquire nuclear weapons under their own control. The result would still be that the United States would face direct confrontation with China.
If the United States allows these regions to develop nuclear weapons while fully withdrawing from the Western Pacific, I believe China would not abandon the possibility of direct intervention.
However, for now, the greatest obstacle preventing most countries in the world from developing nuclear weapons remains the strong consensus among nuclear-armed states on non-proliferation.

I've already said it: no one wants their power diluted!
Even in the early Cold War, China's pursuit of nuclear weapons was met with Soviet sanctions. North Korea's development of nuclear weapons led China, despite its adherence to "non-interventionism," to impose trade sanctions on its only ally. So, what are you dreaming of?
While the United States may be losing ground in competition with China, it wouldn't be foolish enough to hand out a gun to every child! No adult would be so foolish as to give a loaded gun as a gift to a bunch of little brats.
He's not threatening his opponent! He's even entrusted his life to these children!

But there are also other examples, China did economic sanctions on North Korea but didn't attack it militarily and prevent them from getting nukes cause North Korea was an ally and a useful troublemaker to keep US busy.

Every Chinese investment in the west can be taken over, unless there is an disproportionate response. China will have to nationalize 2 dutch companies in response with double the market value. Then they will understand.

But there are also other examples, China did economic sanctions on North Korea but didn't attack it militarily and prevent them from getting nukes cause North Korea was an ally and a useful troublemaker to keep US busy.

North Korea's nuclear weapons are largely due to the help of the Soviet Union during the Cold War. China has explicitly opposed North Korea's development of nuclear weapons, so Sino-North Korean relations have been at a low point for a long time. After more than a decade of global blockade, North Korea still insists on developing nuclear weapons, which also proves North Korea's determination to the world. Therefore, it is almost tacitly accepted internationally that North Korea is a nuclear-armed country.
China does not want North Korea to develop nuclear weapons, nor does it need North Korea to be a troublemaker and keep the United States busy. On the contrary, these actions of North Korea are very disadvantageous to China. The presence of the United States on the Korean Peninsula is not what China expects, but North Korea’s nuclear weapons give the United States sufficient legitimate reasons to continue to stay on the Korean Peninsula.
If you analyze it carefully, you will find that the country that least wants North Korea to possess nuclear weapons is actually China. If anything happens in North Korea, China will have to step in to clean up the mess, which is a considerable hidden danger.

I doubt Chinese leaders likes to have a neighbour that can send a nuke to Beijing in less than 10 minutes, ally or not.

Kim Jong Il once said we will hate Japan for 100 Years, We will hate China 1000 years or something like that. Basically ideologies are meaningless in East Asia because North Korea are still Koreans in the end of the day and they hate our guts.

China's restriction on rare-earth and battery is a clear response to America's escalation after the Madrid conference in mid-September. The US imposed more sanctions against China less than 2 weeks after they met in Spain - not very nice to say the least. BTW, I'm still eagerly waiting for China's announcement to purchase 500 Boeing airliners and invest $1 trillion in the US.

LMAO headline of the day:

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1977277275721871689

"The Chinese populace beaten down by abundant food,safe-cities/towns,ample help during weather/natural emergencies,excellent transportation systems,having strong armed forces protecting them,excellent health-care available to all,are too terrified to resist and rebel against this state of affairs"....is this what I just read?Have they lost their minds?

Chinese companies still don’t seem to learn.



You can buy technology from the West, you can buy physical products (to reverse engineer or because you can’t make it yet), you can pay them to build infrastructure in China.

But never buy anything you can’t lock down. Like shares or IPs or brands. All of those immaterial things can be taken away in an instant, whether by laws or propaganda or both. They are worthless to you.

Just the same, Western factories in China, Western shares in Chinese companies - those actually give you leverage over them. A piece of paper does not give you power. Tangible assets give you power.

South Korea noflipping would actually be the preferred outcome for China, not to mention North Korea.

A fully intact SK will have a massive sway in the new reunified Greater Korea (GK) and will be hard for even Kim to quickly and effectively purge.

Apparently NK dropped the idea of unification, reiterated recently.

Forget SK, I can only see that isolation if Japan is totally encircled. There is USN presence there and nearby, and USN is still very lethal. The only way of encircling i can see is if China engaged USN directly to cut off the supply routes; otherwise, Japan could carry on a protracted asymmetric war, despite being shattered like Afghanistan or Yemen.

See Gaza atm - it is totally encircled but the resistance is still causing damage to IDF years into the war. Or Yemen - both land borders are with US allies while coast is occupied by NATO and Israel, and despite the war with KSA + civil war + bombing by US/UK/Israel, it has effectively disabled Red Sea freight movement for enemies, disabled Israel's only Red Sea port, and still launching attacks on Israel. Japan is more sophisticated and better armed than both Yemen and Gaza combined.

A blockade of Japan is act of war, and it would assume China would be fighting US navy to enforce it.
