You need to own chip fabs to actually "make" CPUs. Intel has fabs, and is building more. Nvidia begs for time on 3rd party fabs to get their stuff made.
They pay for it. I don't beg the supermarket for food, I don't beg my landlord for an apartment, I don't beg my ISP for Internet.
There's no supply shortage of the things you mentioned, like there is for chips. Actually, if you pay rent in us dollars, it's probably about to go up due to a huge increase in the money supply and corresponding real estate inflation. For more info, you can search for "chip shortage." You can also search for an Nvidia GPU, but you won't find one for sale at retail.
