Chinese authorities have barred the co-founders of Manus, Xiao Hong and Ji Yichao, from leaving China during a government review of Meta Platforms' $2.5 billion acquisition of the AI startup. The review focuses on ownership changes and the relocation of Manus' operations from Beijing to Singapore, with concerns over export licensing and Chinese regulatory compliance. Meta has stated there will be no remaining Chinese ownership in Manus post-acquisition and plans to cease Manus' China operations. This scrutiny highlights Beijing's cautious stance on tech transfers and foreign acquisitions involving Chinese firms.
