Those tech companies are the result of censorship and definitely Chinese preferential treatment and national security, etc. Chinese preferential treatment by a Chinese govt is normal like the US prefers US companies such as US bailing out Ford and GM because of jobs. China would much prefer chinese companies and workers instead of international because it provides jobs and income.

US companies also dominate in China, see McDonalds or Starbucks or Apple in China. A lot of international companies dominate China, just not all of technology, also Apple is a tech company last time I checked. Even if it was a democratic Chinese govt, whats stopping it from supporting a Chinese company over a US one, whos to say that the democratic govt wont go China for the Chinese like Trump?
