The initiative involves state-owned telecoms managing the infrastructure and seeks to unify fragmented data centers into a national system by 2028. This comes as chip stocks and major tech shares plunged, dragging down the Nasdaq and S&P 500 indexes. China's AI sector now includes over 6,200 companies with a market worth $177 billion.
