Doesn't need to be general semicondustor manufacturing. Just RAM will do it. And that would spell the end for Micron and maybe Hynix. Samsung is sufficiently diversified.
That's the whole list.

By <redacted>, you mean the USA and Israel? I guess you don't just mean the USA, or you wouldn't have redacted it. Or maybe you mean capitalism?

China already figured out RAM and SSD chips manufacturing. Even Apple wanted to make a deal with YMTC and CXMT:
