This is a good thing, but it's hardly unique. Any advanced manufacturing facility will have remote access to their equipment in case an operator needs reconfigure it, transfer data, or in this case if they're invaded by Lesser Taiwan.

China should just replicate Taiwan somewhere like they replicate Paris, Venice, etc. and call it a day.
