Using Business collocations: I was thinking about buying a car this year but I didn't, because I felt car sellers didn't want to close deals. They said me directly: it's too complicated right now. That was weird because I read that car companies almost went bankrupt due to the pandemic, and I thought, "Ok they need to sell a lot now, trying to recover their sales figures." What happened was car companies predicted that market forces will be focused on primary needs and not on cars. Therefore they decreased their manufacturing including the microchips they needed to add smart functionalities to their cars. They stopped buying microchips from Chinese companies until the market forces changed direction. After 1 year, car companies wanted to go into partnership with the Chinese companies again, but that was not possible. Now, these companies are building microchips for the tech industry in order to produce a lot of phones, tablets, and computers. Car companies are the last priority to the microchips companies now. They are grateful to the tech companies because they arrived dead on time when car companies just decided to finish their contract.
