China has initiated a significant shift in its technology infrastructure by beginning to phase out U.S. semiconductors and software, including products from major companies such as Intel, AMD, and Microsoft, from government and state-enterprise computers. This move is part of a broader strategy towards localization, dubbed 'Xinchuang', aimed at replacing foreign technology with domestic products within a few years. The Financial Times reports that the Chinese government has introduced guidelines to exclude U.S. microprocessors from government personal computers and servers. Additionally, China's industry ministry issued a statement in late December outlining the criteria for 'safe and reliable' processors and operating systems for government purchases. This transition to government-approved technology is expected to be completed by 2027, marking a significant step towards China's goal of tech self-sufficiency.
