According to people familiar with the matter, Nvidia has suspended testing of Intel's 18A process. Intel CEO Chen Liwu's ability to match is becoming a catalyst for the company to turn losses into profits. Some experts said that Chen Liwu's previous meeting with Trump at the White House was a “lifesaver” for Intel. However, sources close to Intel also questioned whether Chen Liwu had the technical expertise needed to drive the success of the manufacturing business. A US Department of Commerce official said that the US government has given Intel a chance to succeed, but it is not “strategically important enough to fail.”
