The Chinese Ministry of Commerce said the controls, issued Oct. 9, were part of Beijing’s effort to strengthen its export control system and “better safeguard world peace and regional stability” amid what it described as a turbulent global security environment.
“These controls do not constitute export bans. Applications that meet the requirements will be approved,” a commerce ministry spokesperson said. “China has fully assessed the potential impact of these measures on the supply chain and is confident that the impact will be very limited.”
The ministry said it had notified “relevant countries and regions” through bilateral dialogue mechanisms before unveiling the measures, adding that China remains open to further cooperation on export control practices to “safeguard the security and stability of global industrial and supply chains.”

I think the Xi is on his last effort. He has nothing left to do.
In the end, the USA will rely less and less on China and they will cave.
