China is reviewing whether Meta's $2 billion acquisition of Manus violated any regulations. Now even AI technology is subject to export controls, even if the company has relocated overseas. To ensure a smooth acquisition, Manus preemptively "de-Sinicized," registering a Singapore company, laying off a large number of employees in China, and completely shutting down its Chinese operations and social media accounts, selling itself as a "purely overseas entity." Why is it so hard to retain talent in China? It's hard to guess. 😂
