|Updated:
Nexperia’s China arm has disregarded its Dutch headquarters’ decision to remove a Chinese vice president amid an ongoing stand-off between the entities and between the two countries.
The chipmaker’s Chinese arm told staff to ignore directives from its headquarters earlier this week after the Dutch government seized control of the company’s headquarters.
