Those are the exceptions that prove the rule. It's very difficult for US or Western companies in general to do business in China without opaque restrictions, corruptions, and share ownership hoops. If the US is playing games, then it's closer to kids playing soccer on weekends; China is already in the pro leagues.

Really, you will see TCL (and Hisense) nowhere in US? I recommend visiting any store selling TVs.

Same goes for Thinkpad/Motorola, but I guess there at could argue these are not original Chinese brands.

Also Tencent, GE, Smithfield Foods, Legendary Pictures, DJI, AMC Theaters…

DJI makes a ton more than just drones.

Yes and unless they start making new ones without any electronics in them they're all still banned

That's also just new products. Anything they already have been selling they can still sell.

Yes - really. The presence of US companies in China is huge and everywhere whereas the presence of Chinese companies in the US is tiny.

> If you go to the US, you will see Chinese brands nowhere.

is their presence tiny or are they nowhere? you can't have both, something something moving the goalpost...

Anker/Ugreen, Shokz, Insta360, RoboRock, League of Legends, Genshin Impact/Honkai Star Rail, Lenovo, TikTok, Shein, Temu.

> If you go to the US, you will see Chinese brands nowhere.

You'll see the above very commonly in people's homes and on people's phones in the US. You're making the mistake of limiting your view to "retail businesses on the street" when those have been going out of fashion in the first place. All of the above are brands that are commonly seen in the US and a lot of people (especially those under 30) are familiar with.

Anyway - the answer to the rhetorical question - is there anyone thinking "it could be our turn soon" - seems to be a resounding "no".

We shouldn't trade privacy for fried chicken.
