Reuters claims China has built a domestic EUV lithography machine inside a secret Shenzhen lab—a breakthrough that would shatter Western tech controls.

More importantly, China still lacks critical EUV supply-chain components from Europe and Japan. This episode echoes China’s infamous Hanxin chip scandal, suggesting the real goal may not technology—but strategic signaling and political bluffing.
