Nvidia, AMD China revenue deal could be model for others, says Bessent

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the recent deal to allow Nvidia Corp. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. to resume lower-end AI chip sales to China, on the condition they give the US government a 15 per cent cut of the related revenue, could serve as a model for others. 'I think we could see it in other industries over time,' Bessent said Wednesday in a television interview on Bloomberg Surveillance. 'Right now, this is unique, but now that we have the model and the beta test, why not expand it?' Bessent credited President Donald Trump with the 'very unique solution' of allowing Nvidia to expand in China and become a bellwether for Chinese technology, with the US taxpayer getting 'a share of' the reward. The revenue the Treasury receives from the arrangement will go to pay down debt, he said. 'If we could make a substantial debt' repayment, that would then allow for discussions about a program of sending money to taxpayers, he also said. Asked about reporting that China is urging its companies to avoid the Nvidia H20 processors now allowed for its market, Bessent said 'sure, we can discuss that' with the Chinese. 'But it also tells me that they are worried about the Nvidia chips becoming the standard in China.' China Talks On Tuesday, Bessent said that he'd be meeting again with his Chinese counterparts 'within the next two or three months,' speaking on Fox Business. He dismissed the possibility of China emulating other US trading partners in winning tariff relief in return for boosting investments in the US. When asked if China could make pledges worth billions of dollars like Japan, South Korea and the EU have as part of their trade agreements, Bessent said 'my sense is no because a lot of the buyout or the funds from the buyout are going to go to critical industries that we need to reshore and a lot of those need to be reshored away from China.' Whether the industry was semiconductors, rare-earth magnets, pharmaceuticals or steel, 'my sense is that isn't what will happen,' Bessent said in an interview with Fox Business on Tuesday. Tech and AI have been among the most high profile of areas of competition between the world's two biggest economies. President Donald Trump has extended a pause of higher tariffs on Chinese goods for another 90 days into early November, a move that stabilized trade ties between the world's two largest economies while they try to forge an agreement. Chinese companies in sectors such as electric vehicles have opened factories abroad to access new markets, a move that could also help them skirt US tariffs. He also indicated that Washington wanted to see measures from China over an extended period to stem the flow of chemicals used to make fentanyl before lowering duties Trump put in place over the issue. 'We will need to see months, if not quarters, if not a year, of progress on that before I could imagine those tariffs coming down,' he said.

US Chip-Gear Maker Sued in China Over Alleged Trade Secret Theft

Top US chip-equipment supplier Applied Materials Inc. was sued by a rival in China over what that company characterized as trade secret theft, a further escalation in the technology war between the world's two largest economies. Beijing E-Town Semiconductor Technology Co. filed a lawsuit with the Beijing Intellectual Property Court against Applied Materials, according to a company statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The Chinese chip-gear maker alleged that the Santa Clara, California-based company illegally obtained, used and revealed its core technologies related to the application of plasma source in treating the surface of wafers, the statement said. The court has filed the case but has not begun a trial, E-Town added. Applied Materials earlier hired two employees from E-Town's fully owned US subsidiary, Mattson, and they were privy to the Beijing company's proprietary plasma technologies, the filing said. Applied Materials filed a patent application crediting the duo as inventors with the National Intellectual Property Administration in China after the two joined the Santa Clara company, the Beijing firm said, alleging that the content revealed trade secrets co-owned by E-Town and Mattson. 'The patent application violated the rules of China's Anti-Unfair Competition Law, and it infringes on trade secrets, and has caused significant damage to the plaintiff's intellectual property and economic interests,' E-Town said in the filing, adding that Applied Materials is also suspected of marketing and selling the technologies involved in the case to Chinese customers. E-Town is asking the court to demand that Applied Materials stop using its trade secrets and destroy related materials. It's also seeking about 100 million yuan in recompense for damage. The Beijing Intellectual Property Court didn't answer multiple calls outside of regular hours. Applied Materials didn't immediately respond to requests for comment. Chip-gear technology is a focal point in the prolonged technology war between the US and China. To date, the semiconductor manufacturing equipment space is still dominated by the US, the Netherlands and Japan. A yearslong US-led campaign has prevented Chinese companies from securing Dutch supplier ASML Holding NV's state-of-the-art extreme ultraviolet lithography systems, which are required to make the most cutting-edge chips for developing artificial intelligence algorithms. ASML's technologies also don't work at a chipmaking plant without support from US equipment suppliers, including Applied Materials and Lam Research Corp. While E-Town's move might be seen as part of China's efforts to retaliate against the US, the two companies have their own existing dispute. In 2022, Applied Materials sued Mattson over alleged corporate espionage. Mattson denied any wrongdoing at the time. With assistance from Peter Blumberg and Brody Ford.
