As most of the counterarguments make the same point I will make a blanket reply:
China among other nations have been playing a game for a while. I call it "can we get away with it" (all states play this game to some extent).
This listing of Chinese tech companies that are taking a hammering from Western policy as China becomes near peer (this is just the start) isn't subtle enough to be part of this game IMO. To me this listing was a statement - they are fully aware it's going to make the West double down on ending any outstanding preferential treatment. What they are saying is: "we don't care if we can get away with it. It's ours.".
