Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo says business leaders are "very worried" about a government shutdown_我的网站

A | 北京时间1月15日凌晨，苹果首席运营官（COO）杰夫•威廉姆斯（Jeff Williams）表示，在公司2017年对高通提起诉讼后，高通拒绝为2018款iPhone提供移动调制解调器。威廉姆斯周一在联邦贸易委员会（FCC）针对高通公司的反托拉斯审判中作证说，去年9月和10月苹果发布的iPhone XS、XS Max和XR型号中，英特尔调制解调器的独家使用是由于高通公司的胁迫，而非苹果公司选择的决定。威廉姆斯说，他曾试图与高通公司谈判，为苹果最新型号的iPhone提供芯片，但高通公司拒绝了。但在2017年10月，高通公司表示已经“测试并发布”了新iPhone的调制解调器。    Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said this weekend that U.S. business leaders are "very worried" about a partial federal government shutdown if Congress cannot pass a short-term funding measure ahead of an Oct. 1 deadline."They are, I think, in some cases, frustrated that this is how government operates," Raimondo said in an interview that aired Sunday on "Face the Nation."  The White House has asked Congress to pass a short-term spending bill to avoid a partial shutdown on Oct. 1. Raimondo said she hopes there will be a "speedy resolution" to the situation. 

     "It's a challenge for the economy and (has) the potential to set us back," she continued. 

• Transcript: Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo on "Face the Nation," September 3, 2023

Earlier this summer, Republican Rep. Garret Graves of Louisiana told "Face the Nation" that he couldn't rule out a potential government shutdown after struggles to make a deal to raise the nation's debt ceiling stretched on, bringing the country dangerously close to a default.                 Fitch Ratings cited the standoff as one of the reasons why the ratings agency recently downgraded U.S. credit from its highest rating. The agency said that the government's "repeated debt-limit political standoffs and last-minute resolutions have eroded confidence in fiscal management."The August jobs report, released Friday morning, showed 187,000 jobs added last month to the workforce. However, it also showed that underemployment – the number of people working more than one job, or jobs they are overqualified for – has gone up."The reality is that inflation still exists," Raimondo said. "I don't want to minimize what Americans are feeling, and that's why we get up and go to work every day, but this economy by any measure is doing incredibly well, and much better than anyone could have predicted, I think, three years ago when we started."

On China

Raimondo also spoke on her recent visit to China, saying that "a great deal of progress" was made. Raimondo is the first U.S. commerce secretary in five years to be on the ground in China.                       "In terms of concrete deliverables, I was able to open three specific lines of communication with the Chinese," Raimondo said. These included sharing information about export controls, opening a dialogue on commercial issues, and discussing how trade secrets are handled.American business leaders have expressed concern about the handling of trade secrets, Raimondo said. Another is the lack of transparency in Chinese business regulations. American companies in China have had their offices raided and employees detained, without Chinese authorities presenting hard evidence of wrongdoing. "When I expressed these concerns, I was heard," Raimondo said, before emphasizing that she  "wasn't given any promises" by Chinese leaders. When asked if she trusted the Chinese government after her visit, Raimondo said that "trust is probably not the word" she would use. "Actions speak louder than words," Raimondo said. "So time will tell whether they are going to really be as they say they want to be, you know, more market oriented and open and reform minded when it comes to their economy, their regulatory regime."Raimondo was the fourth high-level official from the Biden administration to visit Beijing this summer, following Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, and the Presidential Envoy for Climate, John Kerry. "But one thing that I think we can take a bit of heart in is it's in China's interest," Raimondo continued. "It's in their economic interest to have foreign direct investment and to make sure, you know, they had a very good economy when they were market oriented and reform minded. And so we have to hope that self interest will affect their future decisions."                      — Richard Escobedo contributed to this report.                                  。在当时对彭博社的一份声明中，高通公司说：“我们致力于支持苹果的新设备，就像我们支持业内的所有其他设备一样。”苹果高管周一早些时候证实，该公司更愿意从多家供应商购买组件。高管们说，从两家供应商那里购买芯片将使苹果更便宜，并在出现问题时为其中一家供应商提供应急计划。

B | 威廉姆斯证实，高通公司继续为苹果的老式iPhone机型提供芯片。美国政府指责高通公司利用其作为全球领先智能手机芯片制造商的地位，迫使客户使用高通公司的产品并支付高额的专利许可费。
