Control

Plate 1. Control relationsscrutica.com
No control relations found in the cited searchsearched Aug 11, 2026

Searches of US and EU counterparty disclosures on 11 August 2026 covered SEC full-text filings, hosting providers and utilities. The search found no primary disclosure establishing facility ownership, operation or a capacity contract. The search record cites Bloomberg reporting (30 July 2026) of an approximately 1 GW self-built site in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia, and leased capacity with unnamed counterparties; no primary document for those reports was retrieved.

Control claims document ownership, operation or contractual capacity.

DeepSeek is absent because no control arrangements are documented here.

Of the 16 plotted organisations, 7 have contractual capacity and no documented facility title.

Constraint

Chip-access rules for the headquarters country, followed by export-control designations matched to the organisation or its group.

Jurisdiction

Headquarters: China.

Export-control posture

Heavily Restricted. Advanced-chip exports face extensive restrictions. The January 2026 rule provides conditional case-by-case review for qualifying US exports, including H200 and MI325X. Chinese-designed alternatives require their own legal assessment. Classification based on rules as of Jul 17, 2026.

  • The January 2026 pathway applies to qualifying US exports to China or Macau below 21,000 TPP and 6,500 GB/s total DRAM bandwidth. H200 and MI325X are examples, not an exhaustive eligibility list.
  • The rule caps aggregate TPP exported to China and Macau against 50% of TPP shipped to US customers for US end-use for the same commodities, from first commercial US shipment through application. Supply, end-use, security and testing conditions also apply.
  • BIS’s May 2025 GP10 guidance treats Ascend 910B, 910C and 910D as presumptively subject to the EAR and implicated in unauthorized transactions. Its knowledge and authorization conditions matter; Chinese design is not an exemption.

An empty section carries its search method and date if a search has been completed. Not yet searched means no search is on file.

Control claims cite their supporting documents; unverified leads remain in the search notes.

4 · Subscription sources
