ー中国、米国の高度技術を違法に取得、米国が本格的な取り締まりー

米国FBI:Director Wray

「中国の千人計画は、米国などの軍事関連高度技術を違法に取得する手段だ」として厳しい警告を発した。

千人計画とは:

中国が海外人材を破格の好待遇で集めて、中国の発展に協力させる計画。

中国の正式呼称は「海外高層次人才引進計画」

国務院と共産党中央組織部が主体となり、2008年末にスタートした。

FBI:クリストファー・レイ長官

7月7日、ワシントン研究機関ハドソン研究所で「中国の政府と共産党による米国の経済、国家安全保障への脅威」と題する講演を行った。

「現在FBIが捜査中の、外国機関による米国の官民に対する5000件の犯罪案件のうち、半数は、中国が関与」と述べた。

千人計画:犯罪の具体例

レイFBI長官:

講演の冒頭で、千人計画関連の犯罪案件として以下の具体的な事例を明らかにした。

チャールズ・リーバー:米科学者

ハーバード大学化学・化学生物学科長の教授

2020年6月、千人計画への関与を隠した虚偽証言の罪により、刑事訴追された。

リーバーはハーバード大学と米国国立衛生研究所(NIH)に雇用されながらも、千人計画を通じて中国の武漢工程大学でも専属の「戦略科学者」として働いていた

ホンジン・タオ:中国人科学者

オクラホマ州米石油企業勤務の中国人、米国永住権を持つ科学者

千人計画に加わり、10億ドルに同社の高度技術秘密を盗んだ容疑で逮捕された。2020年初めに有罪が確定し、現在服役中である。

シャン・シー:中国系科学者

テキサス州で研究活動をしていた中国系科学者

潜水艦製品「シンタクティックフォーム」(軽量高強度のプラスティック)に関する秘密技術を米国側から盗んだ罪で、2020年初めに有罪が確定した

シーも千人計画に応募、米国高度技術を「消化」「吸収」、中国国有企業に役立てることを中国側に約束していた。

ハオ・ザン:中国人技術者

2020年6月、複数の米国企業から無線機器企業秘密を盗んだ罪で刑事訴追。ザンも千人計画に関わった。この技術は米国企業が20年もかけてきた企業財産。

サイモンソー・テンアン:中国系科学者

アーカンソー大学で米国航空宇宙局(NASA)研究をしていた中国系科学者

2020年5月、詐欺容疑で逮捕された。米国公的機関から研究資金を受け取り、中国の千人計画への参加を隠していた。

シャオジァン・リー:中国系学者

ジョージア州エモリー大学前教授で中国系学者

2020年5月、税金の虚偽申告容疑を認めた。千人計画の巨額収入を申告せず

エモリー大学で50万ドルの助成金で、ハンチントン病研究。千人計画への参加を隠していた。

レイFBI長官:

千人計画に関わる米国での犯罪事例を以上のように列挙。

中国が、不法に米国の知的財産盗用を続けてきたこと」を明らかにした。

Director Wray Discusses Threat Posed By China to U.S. Economic and National Security

It’s the people of the United States who are the victims of what amounts to Chinese theft on a scale so massive that it represents one of the largest transfers of wealth in human history.

If you are an American adult, it is more likely than not that China has stolen your personal data.

In 2017, the Chinese military conspired to hack Equifax and made off with the sensitive personal information of 150 million Americans

—we’re talking nearly half of the American population and most American adults—

and as I’ll discuss in a few moments, this was hardly a standalone incident.

Our data isn’t the only thing at stake here—so are our health, our livelihoods, and our security.

China-related counterintelligence

We’ve now reached the point where the FBI is opening a new China-related counterintelligence case about every 10 hours.

Of the nearly 5,000 active FBI counterintelligence cases currently underway across the country, almost half are related to China. And at this very moment,

China is working to compromise American health care organizations, pharmaceutical companies, and academic institutions conducting essential COVID-19 research.

Chinese students and researchers

Every year, the United States welcomes more than 100,000 Chinese students and researchers into this country. For generations,

people have journeyed from China to the United States to secure the blessings of liberty for themselves and their families—and our society is better for their contributions.

So, when I speak of the threat from China, I mean the government of China and the Chinese Communist Party.

A Diverse and Multi-Layered Approach

The second thing the American people need to understand is that China uses

a diverse range of sophisticated techniques—everything from cyber intrusions to corrupting trusted insiders.

They’ve even engaged in outright physical theft. And they’ve pioneered an expansive approach to stealing innovation through a wide range of actors—including not just Chinese intelligence services but state-owned enterprises,

ostensibly private companies,

certain kinds of graduate students researchers, and a whole variety of other actors working on their behalf.

Economic Espionage

To achieve its goals and surpass America, China recognizes it needs to make leaps in cutting-edge technologies.

But the sad fact is that instead of engaging in the hard slog of innovation, China often steals American intellectual property

and then uses it to compete against the very American companies it victimized—in effect, cheating twice over.

They’re targeting research on everything from military equipment to wind turbines to rice and corn seeds.

Thousand Talents Program

Through its talent recruitment programs, like the so-called Thousand Talents Program,

the Chinese government tries to entice scientists to secretly bring our knowledge and innovation back to China

even if that means stealing proprietary information or violating our export controls and conflict-of-interest rules.

scientist Hongjin Tan

Take the case of scientist Hongjin Tan, for example, a Chinese national and American lawful permanent resident.

He applied to China’s Thousand Talents Program and stole more than $1 billion—that’s with a “b”—

worth of trade secrets from his former employer, an Oklahoma-based petroleum company, and got caught. A few months ago, he was convicted and sent to prison.

the case of Shan Shi

Or there’s the case of Shan Shi, a Texas-based scientist, also sentenced to prison earlier this year.

Shi stole trade secrets regarding syntactic foam, an important naval technology used in submarines.

Shi, too, had applied to China’s Thousand Talents Program, and specifically pledged to “digest” and “absorb” the relevant technology in the United States.

He did this on behalf of Chinese state-owned enterprises, which ultimately planned to put the American company out of business and take over the market.

In one of the more galling and egregious aspects of the scheme, the conspirators actually patented in China the very manufacturing process they’d stolen, and then offered their victim American company a joint venture using its own stolen technology.

We’re talking about an American company that spent years and millions of dollars developing that technology, and China couldn’t replicate it—so, instead, it paid to have it stolen.

Hao Zhang、economic espionage

And just two weeks ago, Hao Zhang was convicted of economic espionage, theft of trade secrets, and conspiracy for stealing proprietary information about wireless devices from two U.S. companies.

One of those companies had spent over 20 years developing the technology Zhang stole.

These cases

were among more than a thousand investigations the FBI has into China’s actual and attempted theft of American technology

—which is to say nothing of over a thousand more ongoing counterintelligence investigations of other kinds related to China.

We’re conducting these kinds of investigations in all 56 of our field offices.

And over the past decade, we’ve seen economic espionage cases with a link to China increase by approximately 1,300 percent.
