It is an extremely long and complicated process to do so. China has been trying to enter chips manufacturing for decades and are now almost there (they don't have the capacity to produce the most advanced chips yet, but are still working on it).
However the moment they got a decent DDR4 production going they announced they are going to "phase them out" in favour of DDR5 chips (of which they have not really perfected the process yet) so they can be used for Chinese AI-datacenters.
