The US is set to create its own supply chain as it girds for an imminent technology war with China expected to follow the countries’ trade battle, Foxconn’s billionaire chairman and aspiring Taiwanese presidential candidate Terry Gou says.

At a recent news conference in Taipei, Gou said the markets on the mainland China and in the US would face drastic structural changes as the two superpowers continue fighting – if and when the trade dispute is resolved.

Gou, who aspires to be the opposition Kuomintang’s candidate in the self-ruled island’s presidential election next year, said last week that even if Beijing and Washington settle their trade war, they would remain locked in a race for top technology – especially in artificial intelligence.
