China plans to block technology companies from accepting U.S. capital without government approval, according to Bloomberg reporting. The policy would require Chinese tech firms to obtain state authorization before receiving American investment funding. This move represents an escalation of technology decoupling between China and the United States, giving Chinese authorities direct control over foreign capital flows into the country's technology sector. The restrictions could significantly limit Chinese tech companies' access to U.S. venture capital and investment sources while deepening the economic and technological divide between the two nations.
