In a fictional TV drama, a Chinese private technology firm takes on a state project to make a laser device for a deep ultraviolet lithography machine, equipment which is essential for advanced chip production and currently subject to strict US export restrictions.
The plot thickens when the firm’s boss is detained by a foreign government, and his wife – who has taken temporary control of the business – says the enterprise is on the brink of collapse.
Although the company’s chief researcher is tempted to cash out and make a quick market profit, the company’s management presses ahead. The wife remortgages her home to raise funds and sells equity stakes, while the research team continues to overcome technical difficulties.
Without giving away the entire plot, due to internet leaks we know there is a happy ending to the drama, entitled The Best Chip, or My China Chip. The 24-episode production was originally scheduled to run on Chinese video streaming site Youku on July 10 but its release was postponed at the last minute due to “scheduling adjustments”.

I wonder if this show can be watched outside of Chinese platforms 🍿

Reality mirrors drama as US-China tension rises over semiconductors
TV dramas aside, as the US and its allies have escalated chip export restrictions against China, Beijing has responded with calculated retaliatory measures as tensions ratchet higher.
