Ignorance is bliss.
Restrictions on exporting technology from US
It said part of the reason why China’s space sector is not as commercially viable is because of US restrictions on exporting required technology to the US.

“Although China is developing rapidly into a major player in the space industry, the country’s commercial space sector is still in its infancy. Many of the world’s satellites are made in or use parts from the US. However, satellites and components made in the US are prohibited from being exported to China, making it very difficult for China to get contracts for commercial satellite launches with other countries,” it said.
But China is likely to put the wherewithal in place quickly.
