China Halts Nvidia Chip Orders

Beijing’s Cyberspace Administration told major tech firms, including ByteDance and Alibaba, to terminate testing and orders of Nvidia’s China‑specific RTX Pro 6000D just two months after launch. The move redirects demand to domestic GPUs and tightens the tech decoupling cycle with the U.S. — It signals a state‑driven pivot to indigenous AI hardware that will reshape global AI supply chains, standards, and U.S.–China economic competition.
