By putting these sanctions on China, the US may have created the only country on earth that has complete vertical integration of chip manufacturing.

I bet sanctions were the first step and I expect sabotage will soon start if it hasn't already

Depending on how conspiracy brained you are, there was a mysterious fire at ASML's factory that destroyed an EUV machine ordered by China right before the sanctions. Some people also say that there were a group of chip engineers bound for China on MH370.
