It's too late, Joe. America's racist policies already drove a whole host of brilliant Chinese scientists and engineers back home with all of the knowledge they helped create. Every time you tighten your grip, more and more of the semiconductor market slips out of your grasp.

American scientists researched an innovative battery technology, but it got shelved by the US for decades. Chinese scientists scoured through some papers, realized the potentials, and decided to get an official license from the US to manufacture it. Now China is largest manufacturer of this battery. The US requires them to sell a certain amount to the US each year to retain the license, but it seems that China just ignored that provision and kept manufacturing the batteries anyway lmao. https://www.npr.org/2022/08/03/1114964240/new-battery-technology-china-vanadium
