The Beijing Winter Olympics was originally a global sports event, but in the context of unprecedented changes in a century, it has been given more political and diplomatic significance.
In recent years, the United States has stepped up its containment of China. First, there is a trade war, then a technology war, and there may be a financial war in the future. After the United States played the South China Sea card, then the Hong Kong card, and then the Xinjiang card, and the Taiwan card even more.

On February 4, 2022, Putin was invited to visit China and attend the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
China and Russia issued a joint statement and signed a large number of cooperation agreements in various fields.
The background of the joint statement is very complicated. The most important factor is that the hegemonic style of the United States is too arrogant and completely unscrupulous, and it does not pay attention to major countries like China and Russia at all.

February 8 is a special moment for "sports fans" in both China and the United States.
Eileen Gu made history on this day, winning the women's freestyle ski jumping championship at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Her mother was born in Shanghai and grew up in Beijing. About 30 years ago, she immigrated to the United States, married an American, and gave birth to Gu. Later, the marriage broke down, and she brought Gu up alone.
Gu not only showed her talent in skiing, she is also a piano master. Her SAT is almost perfect. After the Winter Olympics, she will enter Stanford University, a famous American Ivy League university.

After watching the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, I felt that it showed the self-confidence of a big country.
The opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics gave people the feeling of shock. Everything seemed so grand and so intense. I think that at that time, it was precisely because of a lack of inner self-confidence that China was eager to prove and show something to the world. It wanted to let the world feel the splendor of Chinese civilization and touch the profoundness of Chinese culture through an opening ceremony. However, after more than ten years, you will be surprised to find that China has become more confident, and China does not need to prove anything to anyone. Whether you believe it or not, Chinese culture is still brilliant. Whether you believe it or not, the Chinese nation is still great.

America is increasingly hostile towards China and one of ultimate weapons in America’s arsenal is to kick China out of SWIFT, the America controlled international intermediary and executor of financial transactions between banks worldwide. In recent years, from Trump to American Congressman, there are occasional talk of kicking China out of SWIFT, in order to decouple US from China and stop China from trading internationally.
If this weapon is so powerful, why is China still not being kicked out? Before I answer this question, allow me to share some statistics and background information.

Since China's Belt and Road may be damaged in the west, it must win it back in the east. If the Ukrainian card in the west disappears, China will confiscate the Taiwan card in the east. Otherwise, the United States will concentrate on the Eastern Front.
From this point of view, the Ukraine crisis will be a historical opportunity for China to solve the Taiwan issue. This opportunity is fleeting and will never come again. To be specific, the most recent sensitive time point is around the Winter Olympics.

In 2021, despite various pressures, China’s annual GDP growth rate is 8.1%, the highest growth in recent years with an average growth of 5.1% in two years.
No country in the world today can match this data. In the face of the epidemic, the United States only achieved an average growth of 1.5% in two years, and China's growth in these two years was more than three times that of the United States. But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that China has become the first choice for foreign investment in the world in the past two years, and China has surpassed the United States in the use of foreign investment. China's GDP rose from 65% of the US GDP to 80% in just two years' time.

When the pandemic really appeared, those "top" countries with the most complete medical resources and the most advanced medical equipment, the more beautiful rankings they had on paper, the more they were defeated, especially by Delta and the highly contagious mutant strains such Omicron. These Western powers with the highest scores shouted "coexist with the virus" one by one.
This makes China, which has a mid-range score but has zero tolerance toward COVID seems to stand out from the crowd.
Of course, standing out in this world often means you get targeted. .
Western media have launched all kinds of maddening attacks on China's "zero policy on COVID, which are cynical and sarcastic from various angles.
For example, recently, a new wave of offensive has begun.

In November 2021, despite China's strong opposition, Lithuania insisted on allowing Taiwan to open a "Taiwan Office in Lithuania".
At that time, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a warning that "Lithuania will definitely pay the price" for violating the one China policy and harming China’s core interest.
Just two months later, under China's all-round diplomatic, political and economic pressure, Lithuania gradually felt "pain", and Lithuania's domestic opposition, business people, and even some media in Germany, the largest economy in the EU, have criticized Lithuania's "rash advance" on the Taiwan issue.

China's immediate neighbor, Kazakhstan, where riots broke out, once again pushed the word "color revolution" to the face of ordinary Chinese.
As far as the situation in Kazakhstan is concerned, what can be confirmed at present is:
The situation should not get out of control. There is a strong response from the Kazakh government inside and the intervention of the CSTO peacekeeping force outside. Most experts believe that the situation in Kazakhstan is not out of control. There is a high probability that it will gradually stabilize;
The riots in some cities in Kazakhstan have not yet caused an impact on China's "Belt and Road" initiative and China-Kazakhstan energy cooperation.
I am more concerned about:
1) What is the essence of the "color revolution"?
2) What kind of countries are prone to "color revolutions"?
3) How to prevent "color revolutions"?

On January 1, 2022, RCEP officially entered into force.
In the next 10 years, 90% tariffs of all member states will eventually be reduced to zero. Covering 31% of the global population, accounting for 33% of global GDP, RCEP will undoubtedly crush North America and the European Union in terms of total economic volume, population size, and growth, and become the most dynamic region in the world.

Why is the world currently dominated by the United States close to collapse, and what caused the inner roots of the disintegration of the old world? What are the consequences of a fundamentally wrong US strategic direction?
The current world pattern, whether it is in Europe, the contradiction between Russia and NATO, or the many hot spots in the Middle East or even the coast of East Asia, it can be said that the reason why there are so many conflicts and chaos in the world is that the United States is the scourge of the world.
The current United States has clearly entered a situation of irreconcilable domestic and foreign difficulties.
Internally, it has no way to balance the interests of different domestic interest groups. In other words, it can't do a self revolution . Externally, it seems to have reached the limit of expansion.

Europe is the foundation of American diplomacy. If the United States loses control of Europe, its hegemony will come to an end. Not only cannot the United States allow Europe to fall to China and Russia, it also does not allow Europe to become independent.
One way that the United States controls Europe is the theory of pig raising, which is to say to the pigs that there is a fierce bear outside the pigpen. It is best to scare the pigs to trembling so that pigs can be raised easily.
This is why the United States always plays up the Russian threat. Only by stigmatizing Russia and by constantly stimulating regional tensions will European countries rely more on the United States, and the United States will have a reason to station troops in Europe.

From December 9th to 10th, 2021, the US government convened the so-called Democracy Summit. But this "democracy summit" was really shabby, with the sloppy process, the crude form, and the dismal results.
The United States held this "Democracy Summit" with a very clear purpose, which is to demonstrate its role as a global "beacon of freedom and democracy" while suppressing Russia and China. But what is the actual situation? The answer is "very bleak".
Under the epidemic situation, this summit was held online. More than 100 participants each delivered a few minutes of speeches. Most of the videos were recorded in advance. For the participants, there was no sense of participation.

Just two days before the plane crash, Russian President Putin made a visit to New Delhi. The two sides signed 28 cooperation agreements, among which weapons procurement including 5 sets of S400 missile defense systems and 600,000 AK-203 assault rifles.

China has zero tolerance for drug crimes, but many countries have chosen to give up. Recently, New York state has done something astonishing , and the first batch of four official overdose prevention centers were established.
In other words, these are official drug abuse sites, or the "house of addicts", so that drug addicts will no longer be in danger when they take drugs.
Not only is the window clear and clean, safe and hygienic, drug addicts can also enjoy the enthusiastic guidance and caring care of professional doctors, and then they can let themselves "enjoy" drugs.

What I try to do in this episode is to compile a list of advanced weapons systems that China possesses but the US does not. You be your own judge.

Among the guests are Iraq, India and Ukraine, as well as Taiwan Province of China. In order not to be laughed at during the meeting, Twitter blocked thousands of accounts that refused to speak ill of China...

There are many misunderstandings on the role of Chinese civilization in the development of human history. Historically, Chinese have said no to the so-called "clash of civilizations" and see the beauty of each civilization.
Historically, Western civilization is not from the West and borrowed a lot of elements from Chinese civilization, which led to the rise of the West. The same is true today. Different civilizations should promote mutual learning. Chinese civilization has also borrowed many elements from other civilizations, including Western civilization, and that's why we have China's comprehensive rise today.
History tells us that pursuing the superiority of one's own people and culture causes great tragedies to humankind. I strongly believe that treating each other with respect and as equals; appreciating the beauty of all civilizations and adhering to openness, inclusiveness, and mutual learning are essential .

November 22 is the 30th anniversary of the establishment of dialogue between China and ASEAN. The commemorative conference was held in Beijing via teleconference and China and ASEAN formally established a comprehensive strategic partnership.
Partnership diplomacy is a major feature of Chinese diplomacy, which is different from alliance diplomacy. Once you form an alliance, your responsibility will be greater because of the exclusiveness of the alliance.
The partnership is not exclusive and does not target a third country. I am a partner with you, and I can also have a partnership with your former partner or even a rival.
For example, China and Pakistan are partners, and Pakistan’s rival India is also a partner; China is a good partner of Iran, and Iran’s rival—Israel is also a good partner.
The partnership is voluntary, flexible, and even more equal. The alliance relationship is bound by interests and based on one's own strength, that is, it is unequal in the alliance system.

Lets analyze the macro background of the Sino-US summit , from the US position and we can clearly see the US strategic dilemma.
As far as China is concerned, the momentum of its rise is facing full suppression by the United States; as far as the United States is concerned, its ability to create incremental wealth is also being strongly challenged by China.
What does the United States rely on to create incremental wealth? its own global hegemony. The United States’ global hegemony has four pillars: technological hegemony, financial hegemony, military hegemony, and cultural hegemony.
Among them, technological hegemony and financial hegemony are the main levers for plundering wealth directly from the world. Military hegemony and cultural hegemony are the most important support for the two levers of technological hegemony and financial hegemony.
These four pillars are intertwined and rely on each other to form a tight global hegemony system.

Recently, there have been two new trends in the alliance countries, one is the Russian-Belarusian alliance, the other is the Organization of Turkic States, and another thing is that since the end of World War II, Germany has once again sent a large number of troops to Poland.

I am not optimistic about the prospects for the development of Sino-US relations. The United States likes to say some beautiful things, but it really judges whether the United States will abandon its policy of containing China. The standard is very simple. Whether to give up efforts to prevent China from establishing an independent chip industry. If the United States does not even dare to mention the restoration of the consulate and the abolition of the various unreasonable sanctions imposed on China during the Trump era, it really does not see that the Biden administration has the potential to truly ease tensions in Sino-US relations and seek mutual benefit and win-win results with China.
China's goal has never been to defeat the Americans, but to achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. China is steadily advancing according to the established rhythm, and America is still fluttering in the cesspool.
I did not come up with the term cesspool, Donald Trump did. On September 19, Trump said: Our country is rapidly becoming a cesspool of humanity.

What are the real outcomes of China US virtual summit or video meeting?
Yesterday's world-renowned China-US summit has finally come, and everyone is concerned about the specific analysis of this meeting.
First of all, China and the United States have a common goal at this meeting, and this goal is to cool down the tension between China and the United States.
From a Chinese perspective, cooling down the tense relationship with the United States, it can buy time to concentrate on doing its own affairs. After all, the downward pressure on the economy is not small.
From the standpoint of the United States, it not only urgently needs China’s cooperation and support in many fields, but more importantly, the world’s regional powers are staring at the Sino-US game, and through the Sino-US summit to send a signal of Sino-US relaxation to the world, it is for suppressing the ambitions of regional powers.
Precisely because the needs of the US are more urgent, some details revealed in the early stage of this China-US summit are very interesting.

After these 9 standard procedures, basically one month has passed.
Then the new month arrived, and the new inflation CPI index was released again; as soon as the new CPI index was released, the United States saw it and panicked; within 5 to 7 days, he called China again, asking China to save the United States; then China has rejected the United States again.
So the United States begun to find bargaining chips and play the Taiwan card;
China has begun to warn and is ready for war at any time; the United States is afraid of over stimulating China and has begun to soften its position.
Well, let’s see the news from April to the present the United States goes through this process every month, and there is no change at all.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill on the evening of November 5. Biden called this a milestone. He emphasized that this is a bill that has won cross-party support, and it puts the United States on the road to win the 21st century economic competition facing China and other major countries in the world.
It would be strange if this bill can solve the problems of the United States and give the United States the vitality to compete with China in the field of major infrastructure projects. Most of the previous major infrastructure construction in the United States was promoted by the private sector. Now the U.S. government is at the forefront and has created an American-style "planned economy." The chance of this plan being executed efficiently is very small.

Why does China, as a major manufacturing country, participate in carbon emissions trading?
But before answering this question, we have to think about the following questions:
Can trading carbon emission rights really prevent climate warming?
Can reducing carbon emissions really stop climate warming?
Is climate warming harmful or beneficial to China?

It must be admitted that the United States is, after all, the most developed capitalist country in the world, and China is only a developing country, and will be in the primary stage of socialism for a long time.
Whether it is in terms of comprehensive national strength, technology and military strength, or international influence, China is still far from the US.
In addition, although China is progressing fast, it is not without hidden worries. The biggest hidden worries are: the decline in the birth rate and not enough advanced industries.
The United States has recently played the Taiwan card frequently, so that Taiwan independence forces are very rampant, and the risk of war has intensified. The advantage is that it has accelerated the pace of reunification of the motherland.

Today I want to write some thoughts on the Taiwan issue. My core thinking is: China is defensive on the Taiwan Strait issue and still hopes to solve the problem peacefully. It only uses force as a last resort, especially not "proactively attacking" and seeking to resort to force to solve the problem through "man-made" excuses.
When its sovereignty and territorial integrity are endangered, this is a matter of national justice, a fundamental bottom line, and historical responsibility. Beijing's will is extremely firm, and it will not even simply make decisions based on short-term gains and losses. Its strong determination may be underestimated by the Taiwan authorities and the United States/West. There have been precedents for similar things in history, that is, during the Korean War.
The United States is not what it used to be. After a series of failed wars, especially Iraq and Afghanistan, it has passed its "point of no return", and will no longer participate in military hot wars that are not directly related to the country’s territory. Therefore, no matter how the U.S. government tries to provoke the Taiwan Strait issue, no matter how much it hopes to use the Taiwan issue to check, balance and contain China’s rise and development, if an armed conflict really occurs, the U.S. will not send troops to support Taiwan because of such behavior is no domestic political support
Actually, what the United States has to do is to provide strategic, tactical, and technical "peripheral" support to Taiwan, but not to send physical bodies to fight. After the armed actions took place, allies and international forces would be mobilized to launch long-term sanctions against China, seeking long-term and sustained strikes and suppressions against China.
The above is my basic judgment. It is also the starting point of the following 11 points of discussion.

The situation across the Taiwan Strait has suddenly become tense recently.
On October 26, U.S. Secretary of State Blinken suddenly publicly expressed the U.S. support for Taiwan’s participation in the UN system.
Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities also followed. On October 28, Tsai publicly admitted that there were US troops stationed in Taiwan for training purposes.
So, what does the United States want to do? Is it going to have a showdown with the mainland on the Taiwan issue?
I don’t think so.
Now that the US domestic economy is in a mess, it simply does not have the ability to start a war on the Taiwan Strait.

In a BBC report on China a few days ago, where the word "ziganwu" appeared.
In my impression, as China continues to develop, mainstream Western media increasingly use "Chinese vocabulary" in China-related reports, such as "taikonaut", meaning Chinese astronaut, which, to a certain extent, is also the increase in China's international influence.
Few Western mainstream media talked about "ziganwu" before, and the BBC is the first of its kind.
But unsurprisingly, the BBC severely distorted and slandered the term in its report. From what I understand, the term refers to a group of people on the internet spontaneously using their knowledge and opinions to criticize the people who slandered and attacked China. In the United States and other Western countries, this kind of behavior" is called "nationalism" and "public opinion propaganda".

On September 23, the U.S. Department of Commerce held a semiconductor supply chain summit at the White House. The name looks grand, but it is actually very dirty, which is to force the chip giants to help the United States solve the chip shortage.
The giants have to participate. Those named are TSMC, Samsung, SK Hynix, Intel, etc.
These giants can be said to be the best in the industry, but now it seems that they are nothing more than senior wage earners of American capitalists. From this perspective, Huawei has much more guts.
At the meeting, U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimundo claimed that in order to determine the cause of the global chip shortage, the U.S. government needs more information about the chip supply chain, requiring chip manufacturers such as TSMC and Samsung to submit it within 45 days.

Recently, the Financial Times speculated that China tested a "hypersonic missile with nuclear warheads" in August. However, this may also be a spacecraft test.
On October 18, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs hosted a regular press conference and responded to reporters' questions. “This test is a routine spacecraft test to verify the spacecraft's reusable technology, which is of great significance for reducing the cost of spacecraft, and can provide a convenient and cheap way for humans to use space peacefully. Many companies in the world have carried out similar experiments. Before the spacecraft returns, it is the supporting equipment of the spacecraft that will be burned and disintegrated in the process of falling into the atmosphere, and will fall in the East China Sea. China will work with other countries in the world for the peaceful use of space for the benefit of mankind.”
Therefore, the news that the Financial Times received from the United States is purely speculation, and it is finally confirmed that it is a spacecraft test rather than a hypersonic weapon. So what does this incident show? This shows two points: First, the so-called "hypersonic weapons" are technically connected with spacecraft technology, and the United States is likely to conduct research on this, but there are no mature results. On this point, we can learn from The research direction of the US space weaponization. The second is that China is testing the technology, which the US does not have. Therefore, the US is very nervous.

By coincidence, as soon as Donald Trump came to power, the US Embassy in Cuba, which had only been open for a year, had an accident.
Several CIA agents working in the embassy at the time described a sense of pressure in their heads and heard sounds similar to cicadas. They feel sick and tired, and can't remember things. They also complained of ear pain and hearing loss.
Later, these human brain scans showed tissue damage similar to that caused by a car accident or bomb explosion. The U.S. government was terrified. Everyone fell ill and had to find out the cause, but they searched but couldn't find it.
Not finding it is actually a good thing for Americans, so let's just say what you want.

Recently, the Taiwan issue has received great attention. Everyone thinks that this has something to do with the fate of China in the next few years. The following are some of my analyses of relations between the Taiwan Strait. In fact, it is not analysis, but some speculations and judgments.
These can be summarised into ten points:
-
Beijing hopes to solve the Taiwan issue by peaceful means.
-
Beijing can wait (although it is reluctant), but there should be no timetable for reunification.
-
In the foreseeable future, peaceful means cannot resolve the Taiwan issue.
-
Even so, Beijing will not take the initiative to use force to reunify Taiwan
-
Taiwan's politicians will continue to engage in "Taiwan independence politics", but they will not go further to avoid intensifying conflicts
-
The biggest risk to reunification comes from the United States, especially if the Trump government comes to power again.
-
If its bottom line is challenged, Beijing will definitely attack by force, and its determination exceeds outside expectations.
-
Even if Beijing tries to dominate Taiwan by force, the United States will not directly send troops to intervene
-
US's main countermeasures will be to launch sanctions and embargoes against China.
-
The United States is the biggest hidden danger: the more China-US relations deteriorate, the greater the possibility of Beijing's military reunification.

It can be said that the Sino-US relations have deteriorated to the lowest point since the normalization of Sino-US relations. However, the responsibility does not lie with China.
The United States has used various insidious tricks to contain China in the past ten years, such as from the pivot to Asia and TPP during the Obama period, to the trade war and technological war during the Trump period, and the Xinjiang card, Hong Kong card, virus origin card during Biden period.
Joe Biden even proposed a "competition, cooperation, and confrontation" are the three areas of Sino-US relations. To put it simply, it means to seek cooperation with China in areas where it has advantages; to cut off supply and sanctions China in areas where it has advantages.
According to their logic, China must also cooperate with the United States in sanctions against China, this is a proper robber logic.

According to the South China Morning Post, John Thornton, the US chairman of the China-US Financial Roundtable and former Goldman Sachs president, spent three weeks in Shanghai for quarantine in early August and met with the Vice Premier of China in Beijing at the end of August. then left for Xinjiang for a week. He stayed in China for a total of six weeks.
The SCMP quoted a "person familiar with the matter" who requested anonymity, saying, "Thornton's trip was similar in nature to Henry Kissinger's secret trip to China in 1971."

China finally forced the U.S. to say "We do not pursue decoupling with China, we want to reconnect."
US Trade Representative Katherine Tai delivered a speech on China's trade policy on the 4th, categorizing China as "it has not abided by global trade rules for a long time." The accusation of China's "state-centered and non-market trade practices" has generally shown a tough attitude towards China. At the same time, she said that she will not seek to intensify trade tensions with China and will initiate a targeted "tariff exclusion procedure" to exempt Chinese goods from American tariff. Asked about decoupling from China, Tai said it was not realistic for the world's two largest economies to stop trading with each other. "I think that the issue perhaps is, what are the goals we're looking for in a kind of 'recoupling.'"

In the next 10 years, the biggest changes in the globe will be China, because: in
2035, China's goal is to become a developed country.
This goal, in its every step, will profoundly rewrite the world.
If this goal is achieved, the global rules dominated by the United States after World War II will undergo earth-shaking changes.
So, what does it mean for China to be a developed country?

Undoubtedly, seeing the Meng incident from the perspective of the United States, you can see that it was a complete defeat for the United States. from three aspects:
-
The United States’ political goals failed
-
Why was the United States so confident at first, and ended up in a political dilemma? One of the most important reasons lies in the unyielding in the face of tremendous pressure from the United States and Canada. Not surrendering, not pleading guilty, leaving the United States and Canada with nothing.
- The failure of the U.S. using state power to subdue a Chinese company proves that the United States is weak

After the unremitting efforts of the Chinese government, on September 25, after being arbitrarily detained for 1028 days, Sabrina Meng arrived at Shenzhen on a chartered plane by the Chinese government.
Three years ago, the United States brazenly launched a trade war, sanctioned Huawei and other Chinese technology companies, and extended its long-arm jurisdiction to Meng.
Three years later, Meng returned safely. On the same day, the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce released the list of China's top 500 private enterprises in 2021, and Huawei ranked first for 6 consecutive years.

On September 16, the Minister of Commerce of China formally submitted an application forComprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership or CPTPP membership to New Zealand.
The predecessor of CPTPP was Trans-Pacific Partnership or TPP, and TPP was designed to contain China economically. It can be said that TPP is an economic cooperation organization that anyone can join, except that China is excluded.
As early as 2013, the British Financial Times reported that Obama’s TPP and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership between the United States and Europe are actually ABC strategies, meaning Anyone But China.

Many Western media consider the formation of the AUKUS as a major event with geopolitical significance equal to the fall of the Berlin Wall. Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton highly praised the move as sending a powerful message to China.
In my previous episode, I talked about how Australia with nuclear submarines would play a vital role in attacking Chinese shipping lanes in the Indian Ocean in the event of a major war.
Obviously, there are more than one angles in analysing such a significant event. In this episode, I will discuss the timing of the AUKUS announcement as well as the role of India and Japan.
This new Indo-Pacific security agreement not only shocked the Western world, but also puzzled many as to why the United Kingdom would go all the way to replace India as the Indo-Pacific security core of the alliance? Why is India, which is close at hand, abandoned? Why didn't the loyal Japan not enter the core circle of Indo-Pacific security?

Mark Milley is the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of America. It was revealed in a new book that in the last days of the Donald Trump presidency he made two backchannel calls to China's General Li which Milley initiated due to intelligence suggesting China believed that Donald Trump was going to attack them. Milley sought to calm China by reassuring it that the US was not considering a strike.
"General Li, you and I have known each other for five years now. If we're going to attack, I'm going to call you ahead of time . It's not going to be a surprise. It's not going to be a bolt out of the blue," Milley said
This revelation shocked the world, and not least the US politics. Donald Trump was furious and said this was fake news. Republicans said Milley betrayed America while Democrats defended his actions.

On the morning of September 10, it was the American President Joe Biden’s turn to call China.
I would not post the press releases of both countries here. It seems to have said a lot of things, but it seems that it has not said anything. Anyway, there was almost no consensus between the two sides.
There is only one point that both sides have unanimously confirmed, and that is that China and the United States should maintain contacts and extensive dialogues to continue developing Sino-US relations.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the peaceful liberation of Tibet. Today we will talk about how Tibet became an indivisible territory of China.
In 1958, Tibet carried out democratic reforms, which actually meant abolishing the evil serfdom system and liberated all slaves by giving everyone ownership of a piece of land to farm on. This violated the interests of the Tibetan aristocratic slave owners, and so they launched a riot. After the People's Liberation Army put down the rebellion in 1959, a large number of Tibetan aristocrats and the 14th Dalai Lama went to India and became the main force of the Tibetan independence forces.
The stability of Tibet is not the result of a stable political system, but more importantly, the earth-shaking changes in the economic construction after Tibet's peaceful liberation.

In 2001, the United States entered Kabul by force. In 2021, the United States fled Kabul in embarrassment, and it was the Taliban, now equipped with American weapons, who said farewell to the United States.
The "Kabul Moment" is far more dramatic than the "Saigon Moment" in 1975, and it can be called magical realism. When the United States launched the war in Afghanistan 20 years ago, its national strength was at its peak. Today is not what it used to be. As Putin said, America is "following the old path of the Soviet Union firmly and confidently."
What the United States is most worried about today is that the "Kabul Moment" is only the first domino to fall and the first hole of the "broken window effect." History has never ended.
However, the imperialists and hegemonists will never admit their failures willingly, will never retreat from the stage of history, and will never honestly acknowledge the "end of American mythology". They are trying their best to project the aura of the peak age to the United States.
Today, let's see through these ten illusions together one by one.

I have to give credit to America, who has been able to dominate the world for more than a hundred years. They have methods that are impossible for others to learn, such as celebrating defeats and deaths, and saying black is white and blaming others for their own mistakes..
For example, America has become a complete laughing stock of the world in the way it collapsed in Afghanistan. How embarrassed is the United States in having to beg the Taliban not to attack its fleeing troops and planes?

It has been more than three years since the Trump administration unilaterally initiated a trade war with China in March 2018.
Originally, as the only superpower in the world, when the United States concentrated on suppressing China, many Chinese were very worried. They were afraid that the United States would obstruct or even interrupt China's modernization process.
There are still some people in China who are suffering from "Stockholm Syndrome." When the United States continues to suppress China, they cannot see the arrogance, irrationality and dominance of the United States. Instead, they constantly reflect on themselves and feel guilty.

Recently, I saw a report: a foreign media reporter went to Xinjiang for an interview. A family was holding a solemn funeral, but the reporter wanted to forcibly do an interview and stepped on others’ cemeteries. It caused resentment and the family reported it to the police. Moreover, when he was shown an actual prison, the reports came out as "education and training centers."
So, the organisers in Xinjiang asked the reporter, I shown you everything and
the communication with the interviewees was also very smooth, why did the media story come out completely differently?
The foreign reporter explained the reason: "I have my boss."

It is an indisputable fact that the overall strength of the West has been declining. It is not only manifested in the emergence of political amateurs like Donald Trump being elected president of the United States, or the Brexit referendum, but also manifested in the fact that mainstream Western media such as BBC and CNN are becoming less and less credible. They can even propagate the big lie like "genocide" in Xinjiang.
There is a joke on the internet to ridicule such Western rankings, saying: 20 years ago, Chinese people read the Western rankings and shook their heads and said, “oh, we are not doomed”. Ten years ago, the Chinese would sigh and say, “Oh, the West is so great”. Five years ago, the Chinese would say that “we are not so bad after all?” Now, when the Chinese look at the Western rankings, they would say: “that’s it”?
Recently, there has been another joke. Bloomberg in the United States, the world’s largest financial information company, has launched an anti-epidemic ranking list, ranking the countries and regions it believes has done well in the fight against the epidemic. The United States actually topped the list, which aroused a lot of criticism and doubts. Under the pressure of public opinion, Bloomberg made another ranking revision. Somehow, the United States still topped the list.

Once the hegemonic empire withdrew from Afghanistan, all of them quickly collapsed or disintegrated. On what basis does the United States be an exception?
In 1989, the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan in embarrassment. Two years later, the Soviet Union collapsed. From its invasion in 1979 to its withdrawal in 1989, the former Soviet Union fought in Afghanistan for ten years and then fell into an economic quagmire. In 2001, the United States sent troops to Afghanistan to attack the Ataliban under the pretext of the September 11 attacks launched by al-Qaeda. It has been 20 years since then. Like the former Soviet Union, the United States was caught in an economic quagmire, and then had to withdraw from Afghanistan in embarrassment.

Recently, the US has begun two large-scale military exercises. The first is a joint Indo-Pacific military exercise led by the US Indo-Pacific Command with the participation of Japan, Australia and the UK. The other is the "Large-Scale Exercise 2021" held by the US Navy around the world and is reportedly the largest naval exercise since 1981. A US military scholar told the media that it is intended to demonstrate to China and Russia that US naval forces can simultaneously meet challenges in the Black Sea, Eastern Mediterranean, South China Sea and East China Sea. The media report did not provide the detailed exercise scenario, scale of the command post exercise and war game.

The short answer is NO. Because it is the whole world that is laughing at America.
The Americans launched the war in Afghanistan with three strategic goals: first, to combat terrorism; second, to promote American democracy and propagate American values; third: to wedge into West Asia, monitor Central Asia and infiltrate into Xinjiang, and create a C-shaped encirclement against China.

It seems that I was wrong on the US Secretary of State Blinken. In an interview, he vowed to say that "the Saigon moment will not happen again." I thought this guy was really thick-skinned at the time, but now I find that he was right because the Kabul moment was much more brutal than the Saigon moment.
This is the ridiculous reality: the Taliban took down Kabul in peace, and the US military opened fire on those who followed the United States in order to maintain order at the airport.
The United States has so ruthlessly abandoned the puppet regime it has fostered, and shot and killed its loyal followers so cruelly, it has also made its allies in other regions feel a bit of chill down their spine.

The Taliban is about to unify Afghanistan, and the United States has been completely defeated. The Taliban announced hours ago that a curfew will be imposed in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, to avoid violence.
The media quoted a Taliban spokesperson as saying that the Taliban already controls all areas of Kabul and will soon carry out overnight patrols throughout the city. President Ghani has left Afghanistan.
Why did the counterattack start in August? On 27 July, the second in command of the Taliban in Afghanistan and the Chinese Foreign Minister had a cordial exchange in China.

On August 8, the Tokyo Olympics finally came to an end. The Chinese national team ranked second in the gold medal list with a total of 38 gold medals. It is only one gold medal short of the first-place US team. This is the best result the Chinese team has achieved in the overseas Olympics.
So what does this gold medal list mean?

Be warned, the United States is step by step launching a large-scale conspiracy to blame China. On August 5, CNN quoted "a number of people familiar with the matter" as saying that “US intelligence agencies are digging through a treasure trove of genetic data that could be key to uncovering the origins of the coronavirus -- as soon as they can decipher it.”
It is highly suspected that the US media is cooperating with intelligence agencies to pave the way for public opinion to announce a so-called "research conclusion" that will seriously taint the Wuhan laboratory in the near future, and further induce people to focus on the Wuhan laboratory.

At the Tokyo Olympics, 32-year-old Su Bingtian made history. Running for 100 meters, it looks like anyone can do it. It is the most primitive power and speed of human beings.

Remember that not long ago that the White House asked the intelligence agencies to find the origin of the coronavirus within 90 days? Now that the half of the 90-day deadline is over, US intelligence officials are in a dilemma and they began to say to the media that “may not produce a clear explanation”.
What’s more ridiculous is that, in order to concoct such a virus traceability report and firmly lock the origin of the virus onto China, the Hudson Institute in the United States actually suggested posting a "reward order" and preparing to spend 10 million to 15 million U.S. dollars to lure staff of the Wuhan Institute of Virology to defect to America and tell the “truth” to the world. This stupid idea is naturally ridiculed by the majority of netizens: Doesn't this mean publicly acknowledging the incompetence of US intelligence agencies?
But wait a minute, isn’t the Hudson Institute the place where the former US Secretary of State Pompeo works now?

On July 26, Chinese Vice Foreign Minister held talks with U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Sherman. This was the first China-U.S. high-level strategic dialogue in Alaska four months ago.
Senior Biden administration officials told reporters afterward that Sherman's visit, which included a meeting with Foreign Minister, was focused on setting guardrails on the relationship, rather than negotiating specific issues. “Even as they described the talks as forthright and professional, US officials said it was at times a tough conversation.
Sino-US relations are currently at a deadlock and are facing serious difficulties. The fundamental reason is that the United States regards China as an "imaginary enemy" and tries to contain China from all directions. It seems that as long as the development of China is contained, the problems inside and outside the United States can be solved. If they can be solved , the United States will become great again, and the hegemony under American rule can continue.

A lot of people are concerned about the visit of the US Deputy Secretary of State to China. My previous video on this topic had a record number of views. So, I reviewed all the public information about this event and found that this event was more interesting than what meets the eye.
As discussed in the previous video, the current background is that the United States is very anxious to negotiate with China.
There are two reasons.
First, the current economic situation in the United States is not very good. Inflation data has hit a new high for three consecutive months. However, the Fed has not been able to immediately adjust its monetary policy.
This is a burning matter, and only China can help the United States solve this huge problem in the world.
Second, the Biden administration wants to reshape American leadership.
In the past, because of Trump’s stupid actions, the international image of the United States has been greatly damaged. So when Biden came to power, he proposed to reshape the American leadership. In other words, it is to reshape the soft power and consolidate the global hegemony of the United States.
On this issue, the United States is currently facing a series of troubles.

The first one: Suborbital reusable carrier.
On July 16, the suborbital reusable carrier successfully took off and landed smoothly and horizontally after completing the flight according to the set procedure.
On July 17, relevant news was released on the official social media account of the State Administration of Defense Technology Industry. Yet, this video message has no video, but a blue background and a message page saying "suborbital reusable vehicle flight demonstration verification project has succeeded in its first flight."
The second one is the 600 km/h high-speed maglev train.
On July 20, China’s 600 km/h high-speed maglev system, which was developed by CRRC and has completely independent intellectual property rights, was successfully rolled off the assembly line. The world's first high-speed maglev transportation system with a design speed of 600 kilometers per hour indicates that China has mastered the complete set of high-speed maglev technology and engineering capabilities.

Since the inflation data in the United States exceeded expectations in April, senior White House officials including the Trade Representative, Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Treasury, and Secretary of State have taken turns to call China. Their main appeals are twofold:
First, they hope that China will purchase US Treasury bonds on a large scale. ;
Second, in exchange, the United States can consider removing the Trump administration’s tariffs on Chinese goods.
Let's analyze the wishful thinking behind the US demands.

What does the United States fear most about China? It is China's strong development ability, it is the steady and solid growth rate from quarter to quarter, and the real situation that China's GDP is catching up with it step by step and may surpass it in the next few years. This makes American elites feel that China is about to dig a grave for American hegemonism. In fact, China is developing itself, and it never thought that one day it would ride on the neck of the United States. China's concept of peaceful coexistence comes from the heart. But some elites in the United States can't sleep because of China's development.

One of the important signs of the decline of a world empire is the loss of self-confidence. On July 9, the United States has recently refused study visas for more than 500 Chinese science and engineering graduate students. This news was commented by outsiders as the continuation of the US policy of suppressing China.
But coins have another side. What is the other side of this news?
The United States is becoming less and less confident!

While the Chinese are doing their best to rescue 12 whales, the Nordic country in Europe, Denmark, is already celebrating its annual Whaling Festival. On June 29, the British "Daily Mail" reported that in the Faroe Islands in Denmark, 175 pilot whales were killed by fishermen, and the bodies of behemoths piled up on the shore.

July 4 is the National Day of the United States. President Biden and his wife invited thousands of military personnel and important staff to hold a large party on the South Lawn of the White House, showing the achievements of the Democratic government in leading the United States in fighting the epidemic and restoring the economy, but this has received a lot of criticism. The epidemic situation in the United States has shown a new upward trend. Recently, the number of confirmed cases has increased by an average of about 12,000 in a single day, and more than 200 people have died in a single day.
In addition, the Thousand People Party of the White House was held at the scene of the Miami building collapse with no progress on rescue. This shows the true indifference of the United States under the cover of humanitarian rhetoric. Hundreds of people were still "missing" under the pile of rubble. The United States was unable to determine their fates for more than a week after the building collapsed.

The Communist Party of China is commonly misunderstood in the West. While I am not an expert nor an insider of the Party, I humbly try to explain why it has lasted for 100 years and survived all external and internal challenges.
In the 20th century, the United States defeated its three biggest enemies: Germany, Japan, and the Soviet Union. The United States is definitely the best country in the 20th century, the real hegemon!
However, also in the 20th century, the United States lost its direct or indirect war with China twice.
So, we can't help asking, why can't the world beat the generals for more than a century, but it can't defeat China? This answer should be understood deeply after everyone studied the speech at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China! It can be sums up to three points.

The international discourse power is still firmly in the hands of the United States and the West. In the context of the ever-increasing strategic game between China and the United States and the ever-increasing competition between major powers, the US and Western media have attacked China more and more fiercely, and China appears to be passive.
The reason why the United States and the West have the right to speak is basically because they have dominated the world over the past few hundred years, and they have cultural hegemony by virtue of economic and military power. Western media that the US is a hard power and with its own historical inertia, so far still has the right to set up a wide range of issues and the international spread of power.

The mainstream Western narrative about China was that the Chinese road and the Chinese model are unsustainable. No matter how much China has achieved, at some point in the future, China will either be completely Westernized or will inevitably collapse.
As China's development achievements continue to emerge, basically the mainstream Western view is no longer that China is bound to collapse, but how to get along with China.
Now, a narrative that U.S. President Biden and others have worked hard to create is that China and the United States are in a systemic competition. If China wins, the world will either be out of order and fall into chaos, eventually dragging the United States into it, or the world will be in a Chinese-dominated order that is "non-free" in nature.

I am hoping to start a new series that analyzes recent events with geopolitical consequences and will be published from time to time.
On June 20, the US National Security Adviser Sullivan issued a stern warning to China that China would either choose to succumb to the demands of Western powers and allow Western “scientists” to confirm the source of the new coronavirus is from China or risk being rejected by the international community.
This is the most direct and undisguised threat thus far.
Before Sullivan issued a threat to China, a group of Republican lawmakers in the United States put forward a bill to Congress, asking Congress to legislate against China on the spread of the virus.
In the face of the fierce attacks from the United States, China did not show any weakness and immediately returned the favour. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs is demanding that the United States first conduct a transparent investigation of the biological laboratory in Fort Detrick.

International colleagues also congratulated China. The European Space Agency praised China for sending three "Taikonauts" (the exclusive name of Chinese astronauts) into the core module of "Harmony in the Sky" (the European translation of the name of the space station). The Director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Nelson sent a congratulatory letter to China, congratulating China on its successful delivery of astronauts to the space station and expressing his expectation for future scientific discoveries.

On June 12, 2021, the US Secretary of State once again hyped the issue of virus traceability and claimed that even if China does not cooperate, the United States still has a way. What was his solution?
On June 15, 2021, the National Institutes of Health, an authority in the United States, released its own virus traceability results. According to a study by the National Institutes of Health, as early as December 2019, one month before the outbreak in Wuhan, the coronavirus had widely spread in the United States.
Because the National Institutes of Health was too authoritative, this result immediately appeared in almost all authoritative media in the United States.
Even the perennial anti-China CNN published the news. Voice of America, the leader of the anti-China media, also reported the news. Of course, because the news was too embarrassing, it was only mentioned briefly.

We all know that in the past, the United States has always referred to China's Belt and Road initiative and loans to relevant countries to develop infrastructure as "neocolonialism."
Now, the United States said it wants to help poor countries build infrastructure. At the G7 summit that just ended in the United Kingdom, under the leadership of the United States, the G7 agreed to launch a plan to help poor countries build infrastructure, using the so-called "value-driven, high-standard , transparent” partnership against China’s Belt and Road initiative.
In the past, didn’t the United States say that China’s assistance to developing countries in infrastructure construction was “neocolonialism”? However, China is really helping other countries, and the United States is suppressing China in the name of helping other countries. Obviously, the G7 plan led by the United States is difficult to succeed.

On June 8, the U.S. Senate passed the "American Innovation and Competitiveness Act of 2021".
The bill was originally 1,420 pages long. Since the bill entered the Senate council process in May, members of both parties have added more than 600 amendments to it. This "behemoth" is said to invest more than $250 billion in American technology, science, and research to counter China's growing influence.
Regarding such a bill, the two co-sponsors said: The bill "lays the foundation for the leadership of the United States in the next 100 years" and "is the boldest and most comprehensive anti-China legislation in the history of the United States."

In the past few weeks, a group of Asian elephants "ran away from home" from a Nature Reserve in Southwest China, and the elephants traveled more than 500 kilometers north. For them, taking a walk, entering a village, taking a break, or taking a bath in a pond or drinking a drink at a villager’s house can easily catch the attention of millions of humans.
In order to keep up with the elephants, many western media rushed to the scene.
For example, the New York Times observed that since the elephant group has left the reserve, it has set foot on the narrow county streets and passed by the closed car dealership, broke into a grain warehouse, and occasionally ran into a few local government workers and swallowed up the corn and sugar cane they unloaded from the truck.

After the China-EU Investment Agreement is negotiated in 2020, it can take effect as long as the legislative bodies of both sides approve it. Due to the obstruction of the United States, the agreement has been hanging in the air.

Since the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, the US government has only one way to deal with the economic crisis, and that is to print money. Within a year, the Fed’s balance sheet expanded by more than 50%, and approximately $10 trillion was printed.
It is not uncommon to overprint US dollars. What is surprising is that the United States has not produced serious inflation, which means that the printing of 10 trillion US dollars has no side effects. Since the 2008 financial crisis, the United States has been printing money, and inflation has always been controlled within a moderate 2% range. In 2020, money printing has been madly accelerated, and inflation is still very moderate.
Is the hegemony of the US dollar really invincible? After entering 2021, Biden continued to print banknotes at full capacity, printing several trillion dollars into the market in just a few months.
Severe inflation has finally come to the United States. Beginning in March, prices in the United States began to rise rapidly, and the situation became more serious in April. The inflation rate has reached a serious level of 4.2%, far exceeding the 2% warning line.
The big price increases occurred in just one or two months, and the general public in the United States perceives this very clearly. The most popular comment on American websites at present is that everything goes up, but wages do not go up.

However, Koopmans, a member of the Dutch WHO expert team, publicly defended the conclusion that the virus was "very unlikely" from the laboratory. She said that if the United States has real evidence, it has the responsibility to share it. Dominic, a member of the Australian WHO expert group, said that Biden said that the US intelligence services had conflicting views, which to me is no clear evidence. Ryan, an Irish head of the WHO, criticized the current atmosphere that is seriously "political poisoning" the traceability work.
I set up and operate this channel alone, hoping to share the real China with the world as well as clarify misconceptions and lies against China.
The continued development of China is the biggest game-changer in this century that affects all aspects of everyone’s lives. Embrace the change and seize the opportunity.

In a video speech at the World Health Assembly, US Secretary of Health Becerra asked the WHO to implement the second phase of the investigation of the origin of the epidemic, referring to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. Australia, Japan, and Portugal speaking on behalf of the European Union echoed Becerra's argument.
Before the World Health Assembly, the United States made a series of public opinion preparations for the “Wuhan Laboratory Leaked Virus” again. No matter whether it was a coincidence or not, the United States flatly believed that the laboratory leaked virus was a “conspiracy theory” last year. The academic expert Anthony Fauci has also changed his opinion and said: he has not been convinced that the virus is a natural emergence and needs to continue to investigate what happened in China.

Is it because the lag in understanding of China prevented the United States and the West from forming a consensus and gave China more time to rise?
Sometimes I think about a question, why the United States did not start a big trade war with China until 2018, and send a bunch of Chinese companies to the entity list? Don’t the Americans realize it’s a bit late?
This is a puzzling question. Why didn’t the United States start earlier?
For an organization, the longest phase is the "consensus formation" phase, because everyone in the organization has different perceptions.

On May 20th, the European Parliament froze the review of the China-EU Comprehensive Investment Agreement with an overwhelming vote of 599 votes in favor and 30 against.
At the end of 2020, China and the EU reached this agreement after seven years of negotiations, which is a remarkable achievement.
China has made many substantive concessions on issues such as market opening, state-owned enterprises, and subsidies. This is the fundamental reason why German Chancellor Merkel and French President Macron support this agreement.
The agreement is essentially mutually beneficial and win-win.
The European Union has won tangible benefits, while China managed to tear a hole in the direction of the European Union when the Biden administration of the United States attempted to establish a united front against China.
However, the "China-EU Comprehensive Investment Agreement" has been disputed within the EU since its conclusion. Since the agreement needs to be approved by the parliaments of the EU member states and the European Parliament, whether it will be implemented smoothly is still a big unknown.
When the European Parliament froze the review of the China-EU Investment Agreement, it gave a high-sounding reason. After the European Commission imposed sanctions on China on the so-called Xinjiang human rights issue, China immediately launched counter-sanctions against the European Union, including sanctions on five members of the European Parliament and a human rights subcommittee under the European Parliament.
Taiwan, as the second batch of regions that achieved industrialization earlier (the Asian Four Little Dragons) after the East Asian region following Japan after World War II, had good governance capabilities for a period of time.
However, during the two governing periods of the Democratic Progressive Party, it has continuously stirred up contradictions in Taiwan and the "de-sinicization" of identity recognition and the governance capabilities of local governments have greatly degraded.
Recently, the water shortage and power cuts in Taiwan, coupled with the outbreak of the epidemic, have fully exposed the shortcomings of its governance capabilities.
Over the past year or so, the local authorities in Taiwan Province have been proud of themselves as a model of the international community’s fight against the epidemic, and they ridiculed China’s ability to fight the epidemic. So far, in its official documents, the epidemic is still viciously called "Wuhan pneumonia".
This arrogance is an important reason for the outbreak of the epidemic in Taiwan.

United States, Britain, and Germany co-hosted a video conference on human rights in Xinjiang at the United Nations on May 12, which once again led to a funny scene: the United States is the country that kills the most Muslims in the world, yet they claim to protect the human rights of Muslims in Xinjiang. Moreover, the majority of Islamic countries in the world have basically refused to participate. There are a total of about 20 countries participating in the meeting, which is far below the total number of allies of the United States. More importantly, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights did not show up.
This is obviously a fake conference that embezzled the United Nations premises, and the Islamic countries did not support it.As we all know, the Western world and the Islamic world have long been emotionally incompatible. The war on terrorism fought by the United States in the greater Middle East has aroused widespread resentment among Muslims. The United States and the West has no credibility in the Muslim world. In the past two years, the United States and its allies have carried out joint operations against "Human Rights in Xinjiang", but Islamic countries have shunned U.S. agitation.

The wreckage of the Chinese Long March 5 rocket fell into the waters west of the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean on the morning of May 9. In the previous few days, the US officials and the media have widely spreaded rumors of "uncontrolled" return of the Chinese rocket wreckage to the earth and China's "irresponsibility". All of this hype has once again and ended up with nothing.
In the past few days, some American scientists and even NASA have described, without conscience, how the Chinese rocket wreckage is "dangerous" and "the design is not up to standard", while the US media has rendered the appearance of the Long March 5 wreck "rolling out of control" in space. This is shameless fake news propaganda.
A small number of American scientists have promoted and participated in the smearing of China's aerospace industry. This is a disgrace.

The White House announced that the United States will provide 60 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine to India in the next few months. This decision is obviously made under tremendous pressure from international public opinion after its initial decision to ban the export of raw materials of vaccines to India. Therefore, the United States hastily launched a plan to deliver 60 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine. However, the outside world will naturally ask, why do they send the AstraZeneca vaccine and not Pfizer or Moderna or Johnson vaccine? As we all know, the AstraZeneca vaccine has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for emergency use, In other words, the United States is going to send vaccines that it dares not use itself to foreign countries in order to look like it is helping India.

The US Senate Foreign Relations Committee recently passed the "Strategic Competition Act of 2021," a 281-page draft legislation with only one objective: full strategic competition with China.
Considering that the two parties in the United States are currently highly aligned on anti-China issues, the specific content of the bill may still be adjusted, but the possibility of its final passage is very high.
The content of this bill is very extensive, which is equivalent to the United States in the 21st century putting forward a complete "blueprint" for the Sino-US competition. In this "blueprint", it contains US strategic thinking and the specific operational methods and roadmap that the United States will implement in response to the rise of China.
To a certain extent, the United States used this bill to sound the clarion call for comprehensive competition between China and the United States in the 21st century, and the outcome of this competition will also determine the respective national fortunes of China and the United States.
I suggest that everyone who cares about international news and Sino-US relations should try their best to read the original text of this bill.
Next, I will try to answer the following the most critical questions:
What are the key points of the US "Strategic Competition Act of 2021"? and will the US achieve its goals?

Who are the enemies of the United States?
China.
Who will pay for the U.S. team building?
The whole world.
This is the diplomatic strategy that Biden put together under various constraints.
Originally, Biden’s best strategy was to concentrate its efforts on China, which is the most threatening to the United States, and let China pay for the U.S. team building. However, China’s current attitude toward the United States is extremely tough, so Biden can only adjust the target of collecting protection money from other countries.
The biggest problem with this strategy is how to squeeze money from allies while forcing them to become anti-China pawns?
After Biden came to power, relying on the traditional alliance between the EU and the United States, he organized a round of gang fights on China’s Xinjiang issue. However, after China’s angry counterattack, the EU quickly backed down.
The reason is that in addition to China's tough counterattack attitude, the most important thing is that the United States has also imposed sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 project and imposed retaliatory tariffs on EU countries that levy digital taxes on American technology companies.
The U.S. now has no decent bargaining chip to attract its allies to participate in the anti-China chorus. More importantly, the U.S. recently announced the unconditional withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, which has made allies even more wary against their big brother. After all, the big brother is merciless and can abandon its allies at any critical moment.

In 1974, as China’s first public voice at the UN General Assembly meeting, Leader Deng Xiaoping made a solemn promise:
“China is not now and will not be a superpower in the future. If China one day changes its color and rules the world, bullies, invades, and exploits people everywhere, then the people of the world should expose it, oppose it, and defeat it together with the Chinese people.”
Since then, China has made it clear at major international forums almost every year that China will never seek hegemony, expansion, or sphere of influence.
In fact, even if China surpasses the United States in the near future to become the world’s largest superpower, China will never engage in hegemonism like the United States.
There are four reasons why I say so.

Of course, the Japanese government says that it has treated nuclear waste water to the point where it is harmless and meets the standards of the International Atomic Energy Agency. It can even be consumed directly. The United States also said that Japan's nuclear waste water has reached the standard.
But the even Japanese people do not believe it in this kind of politician's nonsense, In fact, Japan wants to prove that its nuclear waste water is non-toxic and harmless. There are more than 1 million tons of nuclear waste water, which is only 18 kilograms per Japanese, and they can drink it all in a month.
The Japanese should dare to drink up this million tons of nuclear waste water, which is said to be non-toxic and harmless. Then I believe it is harmless.
But in fact, let alone the people, even politicians dare not drink, even just for show. In September 2020, when Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga inspected the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the staff took out the purified and diluted nuclear waste water, saying that this water is very safe and can be drunk. This is a great opportunity for politicians to show off and demonstrate the safety of Japan’s nuclear wastewater.
But after hesitating repeatedly, Suga refused to drink the purified and diluted nuclear waste water.

In the previous episode, I talked about Japan’s official decision to discharge nuclear waste water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the Pacific Ocean.
According to the report of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Energy, it is believed that the impact of nuclear waste water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident on the marine ecological environment requires continuous follow-up observation. The German Marine Science Research Institute pointed out that the coast of Fukushima has the strongest ocean currents in the world. Within 57 days from the date of discharge, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean and will spread to the global waters in 10 years. Greenpeace nuclear experts pointed out that the carbon 14 contained in Japan’s nuclear waste water is dangerous for thousands of years and may cause genetic damage. There is no doubt that the nature of nuclear waste water discharge in Pacific Time is very bad.
So, why does Japan have to discharge nuclear sewage into the Pacific Ocean? The answer is simple: save money! Because, according to previous estimates, Japan needs to spend more than 100 billion U.S. dollars to deal with the problem of the Fukushima nuclear power plant. However, the Japanese government and TEPCO do not want to pay the money. They think that it is the most economical to discharge nuclear sewage into the Pacific.
In order to save money, Japan does not care about the health of its people and people in other countries. It is conceivable that the Japanese government has no bottom line. After the nuclear wastewater is discharged into the Pacific Ocean, it will not only pollute the sea water, but also pollute fish, which will directly affect the health of people in many countries.
Yet despite all these, somehow the United States supports Japan in discharging nuclear sewage into the Pacific Ocean.

Recently, the United States is spreading “the lie of the century” on Xinjiang, but when there is a real crime against humanity being committed by its ally, it is applying its famous double standard again.
The Japanese government held a cabinet meeting on April 13 and officially decided to discharge nuclear waste water from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the ocean.
In March 2011, a catastrophic nuclear leak occurred at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan. In March 2011, an earthquake with a magnitude of 9 on the Richter scale occurred in the Northeast Pacific region of Japan. The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant suffered a power outage due to the infusion of seawater. Several nuclear reactors exploded and the core melted down. In the following 10 years, how to store nuclear waste water has become a major problem in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear accident.

The United States has always praised itself as "a city upon a hill" that is an example to others in the way it supports "natural human rights" and fulfills "natural responsibilities", and it has repeatedly waged foreign wars under the banner of "humanitarian intervention". During the past 240-plus years after it declared independence on July 4th, 1776, the United States was not involved in any war for merely less than 20 years.
According to incomplete statistics, from the end of World War II in 1945 to 2001, among the 248 armed conflicts that occurred in 153 regions of the world, 201 were initiated by the United States, accounting for 81 percent of the total number. Most of the wars of aggression waged by the United States have been unilateralist actions, and some of these wars were even opposed by its own allies. These wars not only cost the belligerent parties a large number of military lives but also caused extremely serious civilian casualties and property damage, leading to horrific humanitarian disasters. The selfishness and hypocrisy of the United States have also been fully exposed through these foreign wars.

Recently, my heart is surging with tears in my eyes, when I watch over and over again the videos of high-level meetings between China and the United States in Alaska.
This time, the world really heard the voice of China.
Before the talks, what was the calculation of the United States?
As the world’s poorest government, the United States’ solution has always been to issue U.S. debt when it has no money, but the scale of U.S. debt has reached 28 trillion U.S. dollars, and bonds are becoming less and less demanded. 29 U.S. debt holders, including the United Kingdom, France, and Canada, all began to sell U.S. debt last year.
Now the 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds cannot be sold at a discount, and the U.S. government can’t even get the money to maintain the basic operations of the government unless it increases the robbery.
If U.S. debt cannot be sold, there will be no dollars;
without dollars, there will be no military expenditures;
without military expenditures, aircraft carriers and military bases will be shut down;
without warships, the United States will not be able to rob; if it cannot rob others, it will go bankrupt.

In the past two episode, I talked about why Chinese cannot possibly commit genocide against its own people.
Ever since coming to power, the Biden administration has continued to disgust China with the old things such as "human rights, democracy, and freedom". They fabricated a series of lies on the Internet, saying that China has "concentration camps" in Xinjiang, "genocide", “forced labour”...
Everyone knows that ideological struggle is a false proposition, and the real purpose behind it is still political interests and economic interests!
In fact, in recent years, Western countries have been trying their best to mess up the western part of China, and continue to support Tibetan independence and Xinjiang independence...
Why do Western countries always want to mess up the western part of China?
Compared with the east, the west is still relatively backward, but the west is very important to China, to the entire Eurasian continent, and even the world.
Next, allow me to analyze the importance of the west to China from the perspective of geopolitics, and perhaps you will know why Europe and the United States are messing up the west of China.

To Chinese, “genocide” is a foreign concept. Chinese civilization is about tolerance and integration. Different ethnic groups, races, and groups of people come together to form an integrated culture and thrive.
The systematic killing of the population of a particular nation or ethnic group does not actually belong to traditional Chinese culture. In fact, this concept is quite foreign.
In my view, genocide in history often falls into two categories: 1) Europeans slaughtered ethnic minorities (Jews, Gypsies) or external ethnic groups (indigenous people living on land conquered by Europeans); 2) The mutual slaughter among the tribes of multi-ethnic post-colonial countries, and the territories of these countries were subjectively set by European colonists, such as in Rwanda in the 1990s.

"If you are a Muslim, where do you prefer to live? America?" The answer is definitely not in the United States.
The United States has a long tradition of racism, and after the "911" incident in 2001, American society was very unfriendly to Muslims.
After Trump came to power, he explicitly barred Muslim citizens from some Arab countries from entering the country.
In addition, in the past few decades, the United States has attacked Iraq twice, launched a war in Afghanistan, and participated in civil wars in Libya, Syria, and Yemen. At least hundreds of thousands of Muslims were killed and millions of Muslims were displaced.
Not to mention, after the end of World War II, the United States has long favored Israel on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, which has caused the homeland of millions of Palestinian Muslims to be occupied and the dream of nation-building is out of reach.

A budget announced recently shows that China’s annual defense budget will maintain single-digit growth for the sixth consecutive year. The defense expenditure plan for 2021 is about US$209 billion, a year-on-year increase of 6.8%. and the US defense expenditure in fiscal 2021 is US$740.5 billion.
The ratio of military expenditure to the GDP of major countries: the US military expenditure accounts for 3.5% of GDP, Russia’s 3.3%, India’s 2.5%, the UK’s 1.83%, and Germany’s 1.4%. Among all major countries, China’s military expenditure is 1.25%. % Ranks second to last, only slightly more than Japan's 0.98%.
Many believe that as Sino-U.S. relations become more tense as the United States’ positioning of China changes, the geo-military pressure that China faces will inevitably be fierce.
On March 1, the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command submitted a report to Congress, clearly proposing a "Pacific Deterrence Plan" against China, seeking to obtain more than 27 billion U.S. dollars from 2022 to 2027 . The military budget is centered on the establishment of a "precision missile strike network along the first island chain" to increase the "conventional deterrence" of China.
At the same time, the Indo-Pacific Theater Command is also advancing plans for the land-based Aegis system in Guam, an important node of military operations against China.
Therefore, it must be admitted that the military pressure China will face in the direction of the Western Pacific in the future will indeed be great.
But this does not mean that military expenditures must be substantially increased!

The Pew Research Center of the United States recently released an online poll. The results showed that nearly 90% of Americans believe that China is a "competitor or enemy" of the United States. This proportion greatly exceeds that of China as a "cooperative partner" of the United States.
In addition, as many as 48% of the respondents believe that limiting China's power and influence is the "most important."

Chinese civilization has long been at the pinnacle of the world, but why did the West enter a capitalist society and China did not?
Since ancient times, Chinese and Western culture are different. China has always been a farming civilization, while the Western society represented by Europe has always been a commercial civilization.
I used to read a lot of articles saying "Why is China lagging behind the West in modern times" and "Why China hasn't moved towards a capitalist society", but I always found it to be paradoxical.So I want to share my own thoughts with you.

During the Spring Festival, China's domestic high-risk areas have been downgraded, making the festive atmosphere even more enthusiastic. If we use the most objective and fair perspective to evaluate, we must give the highest evaluation to the excellent performance of the Chinese government in controlling the epidemic situation in various places in just two months.
The world must admit that China is the world's number one in terms of the level of unity and resistance to disasters!
Just during the holidays, two countries that have been busy criticising China have experienced natural and man-made disasters that Chinese found speechless.

The World Health Organization (WHO) expert team recently concluded its investigation trip in China and held a detailed press conference.
Some people in the West originally hoped to use WHO’s trip to trace the origin of the virus to hold China accountable, but instead WHO experts felt clear trust, openness, and cooperation in China. Moreover, these experts refuted the Americans who created "conspiracy theories" and made absurd remarks such as "the virus originated in a Wuhan laboratory".
Disappointed Western media, including The New York Times and Reuters, have tried to hype up false accusations such as China's refusal to provide data to the WHO expert group, but these reports have been directly criticized and refuted by many WHO experts.
Peter Daszak, a consultant on pathogens of the World Health Organization and chairman of the EcoHealth Alliance, a non-profit organization in the United States, said on Twitter that the New York Times report incorrectly quoted the views of the panel members. He said that it is a shameful act to support the "narrative framework" that reporters have prepared in advance.

In the eyes of many Americans, Bill Gates is a demon.
They believe that Bill Gates is deliberately conspired to launch the "Human Elimination Project", deliberately "manufacturing" the new coronavirus, and spreading it to the world, and then come up with a vaccine that has been developed a long time ago to "save the world", so that he can get both fame and fortune
But making money is not Bill Gates' ultimate goal, but to implant chips into the human body under the guise of injecting vaccines in order to control all mankind in the future.
Many Americans were dissatisfied and talked to Trump on Twitter. Why didn't such a demon be arrested and let him continue his conspiracy?
Bill Gates’ so-called demon plan has a considerable market in the United States. Americans have endured dissatisfaction with him for a long time. Many people have believed that Bill Gates’ early so-called African charity was aimed at capturing black slaves to conduct human experiments.
In the end, what the Americans said seemed to have a complete chain of evidence, and came to a reasonable conclusion:
Bill Gates was Lucifer's apostle, in order to establish an antichrist system and become the God of the new world. He is committed to the human removal plan, completely destroying the old order, leaving only elite humans.
He mobilized all resources to develop this virus, and he accurately predicted the outbreak of the epidemic in a TED speech a few years ago.
They are implanting nanochips in the vaccine to track you and control you. Bill Gates has been plotting for a long time and has been experimenting on Africans for decades.
But on the other side of the earth, in China, Bill Gates's reputation was completely opposite.
In the eyes of many Chinese, Bill Gates is an angel.

Experienced audiences would know that since the launch of this channel , I have been firmly optimistic about the prospects of China's rise, and firmly believe that it would create tremendous opportunities for the world.
In the stock market, the Shanghai Composite Index has exceeded 3,600 points; in the foreign exchange market, the RMB exchange rate against the US dollar has appreciated to 6.48. In terms of global capital investment orientation, China surpassed the United States in 2020 and became the world's largest destination of foreign direct investment. The international investment to Mainland China alone was 163 billion U.S. dollars, while the U.S. was 134 billion U.S. dollars. Just a year ago, the U.S. received foreign investment as high as 251 billion U.S. dollars, while China ranked second with 140 billion U.S. dollars.
Although this change in foreign investment is due to the epidemic, in the long run, the epidemic has accelerated the rise of China and the decline of the United States. In a sense, it can be said that the current positive outlook on China is similar to that on Britain in the early 18th century, and on America in the early 20th century.
I felt the unstoppable trend of the times. This not only can alleviate the anxiety caused by short-term fluctuations in different industries, but it also gives us a sense of historical participation to witness the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Look farther and broaden your mind, and you will find that the present is the best era!
Tesla's Shanghai plant was put into production, Exxon Mobil and BASF's 10 billion-dollar projects started, Starbucks and Wal-Mart accelerated the opening of stores in China, BlackRock and JPMorgan Chase continued to increase their holdings of Chinese assets... In the turmoil world, global entrepreneurs and investors are determined to invest more in China.

January 23, 2021 is the first anniversary of the shutting down of the city of Wuhan.
Over the past year, too much has happened in China and the world.
But if you sum it up in one sentence, it is probably that some people in the West thought that the epidemic would become China's "Chernobyl", but they never expected that the epidemic would eventually become the West's "Waterloo".
Behind this sentence, there is actually a narrative logic.
When the epidemic broke out in Wuhan a year ago, some people in Wuhan and Hubei faced a new and unknown virus and made some mistakes that seemed stupid at hindsight. In the eyes of some people in the West, these mistakes "perfectly" confirm their deep "judgment" of the Chinese system and model, so they fantasized, just like "Chernobyl" eventually disintegrated the Soviet Union. The epidemic will also cause China's system to crack and collapse.
But what they never expected was that in the face of the epidemic, after China experienced the initial panic, the nationwide system was well activated. In the end, the whole Chinese society adopted a scientifically-based and very effective anti-epidemic method. Large-scale nucleic acid testing, detailed epidemiological investigation, timely isolation and treatment, and ultimately, early diagnosis, early detection, early isolation and early treatment in the face of the epidemic.
This kind of successful anti-epidemic measures is based on science, but to be successfully implemented, it also requires a strong government, social organization, and mobilization capabilities. It also requires a cultural tradition of unity among China’s 1.4 billion people.
It is these factors that allowed China to achieve a decisive victory in the fight against the epidemic in just a few months. As the epidemic spread throughout the world, China's domestic economic and social life gradually returned to normal. This not only saved the lives and livelihoods of countless Chinese people, but also allowed China to become the world's production and supply center of anti-epidemic materials and the center of the world's economic recovery when the world was facing a severe impact.

Recently, the Western media has made another attack on Chinese eating pork or meat in general, saying that Chinese can reduce carbon emissions by not eating pork. This kind of open-eyed and nonsense behavior is simply another “double standard” example.
On January 22, the US "Time" magazine website published an article, "How China can change the world by taking meat off the menu". What's the matter, you won’t even let me eat meat now?
Let's check out this article.
It started with boasting China's artificial meat is the same pioneering technology as new energy vehicles and mobile payments, saying that "today Chinese people are embracing a healthier lifestyle." "But as in rapidly modernizing societies everywhere, today's Chinese are embracing healthier lifestyles."
It also invited experts to praise that "China leads the industry" of artificial meat.
The article said "rather than managing things, I think China let the industry lead."
After the praise, suddenly it said "cutting China's animal husbandry sector by half can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 1 billion tons", meaning that if the Chinese do not eat meat, it will be of great benefit to the earth.
So it has just one point: don’t eat meat, let’s save the planet together!
Some people may ask, if not eating meat can save the earth, why do American and other people in the West eat a lot of meat?

There are always some external forces and domestic dissidents who believe that China’s stability is superficial. “The country is actually very fragile.” “A local conflict and protest may trigger a domino effect and destroy the Communist Party’s leadership of this country”, so they keep saying. Their understanding of China is too superficial, thinking that China was forcibly formed like empires in European history.
2021 is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.
Let me first talk about how New China came about. The Chinese people's choice of the Communist Party more than 70 years ago is fundamentally different from that of Western countries holding a general election and ushering in a new government.
In the late Qing Dynasty, China was in chaos, and various thoughts competed fiercely. When the Communist Party was founded, it was very weak, with dozens of people, just like a seed scraped on the soil of China by the international communist movement. All regimes that passed through the period in China have tried beating the Communist Party to death. The Communist Party can be said to have stood and grew up in a pool of blood. After many twists and turns, they were almost scattered and annihilated, but they eventually gained national power. Think about it, everyone, how strongly does the Communist Party represent the views of the people, in order to make it possible to rise to power despite so many challenges?

"If the United States really respects the facts, please open the Fort Detrick base and invite WHO experts to go to the United States to conduct traceability investigations." The spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently said in response to the US argument that "China obstructs the traceability of the virus".
In fact, since May 2020, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China has repeatedly named Fort Detrick base at press conferences.
Why?
In fact, many people, including many Americans, are suspecting that the Fort Detrick base is related to the global spread of the new virus.
Time goes back to July 2019.
At that time, a deadly disease broke out in a retiree community called "Green Spring" in Virginia, USA. The American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) reported that more than 50 people in the area developed fever, cough, general weakness and pneumonia, and several died as a result.
The strange thing is that at about the same time, the US military's biological weapons technology research and development center, Fort Detrick, which was only an hour away from the community, was "mysteriously" closed.
Eight months later, the new pneumonia epidemic spread on a large scale in the United States.
Later, some people posted on the White House petition website asking the US government to clarify whether Fort Detrick was the "initiator" of the virus.
What is the Fort Detrick base?
Politico, one of the most famous political news blogs in the United States, described it as “the center of the darkest experiments conducted by the US government”.

It is said that China has been blocked by the Western world in the high-tech field. Among them, the largest blockade of China is undoubtedly by the United States on the other side of the Pacific.
The Batumi organization, led by the United States and established in 1949, embargoed high technology on China basically throughout the entire Cold War period.
It is very outrageous that the Batumi organization has set up a special organization and list to block China! Among them, the China Committee established in 1952 is the enforcement agency for the embargo imposed on China. It set up a special ban on Chinese trade, the number of banned projects is more than 500 types than those in the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries.
From an objective assessment, the strength of the Batumi blockade against China even surpassed that of the Soviet Union, the main opponent of the Cold War.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Cold War ended. The Batumi organization, which aimed to blockade the socialist camp in the name of the Cold War, lost its reason for existence and disintegrated in 1994.
In 1996, the United States took the lead in establishing a new technology blockade organization against China, the "Wassenaar Arrangement."

Since the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, the United States has not done anything to help China, but has chosen to gloat and then blame China. The US's approach is shameful, but there is definitely a reason behind its action.
This episode will analyze Sino-US relations from a deeper and broader global perspective. After reading this article, you will understand the true intentions of the United States and understand the game of the century that China is laying out!
Sino-US relations are the most important international relations in the world today!
How China and the United States get along determines the pattern and trend of the world, but it depends on how the two sides position each other's relationship.
After World War II, China and the United States have maintained a general balance. Even the direct engagement between the two sides such as the Korean War did not extend to each other's homeland. It is precisely this "state of peace" that has been maintained for decades.
In 2014, China's GDP reached 60% of the US GDP for the first time, and reached about 66% in 2018, and its proportion has been increasing year by year. China's GDP growth rate is obvious to all!
What is special about this 60%? This is the usual warning line in the United States!
In the last century, the United States made two shots against its opponents because of this 60%. The first time was that the GDP of the Soviet Union exceeded 60% of that of the United States. The United States increased its containment of the Soviet Union, leading to its final disintegration.
The second time, Japan’s GDP exceeded 60% of that of the United States, which caused the United States to force Japan to sign the "Plaza Accord" and let the yen appreciate, and Japan fell into the "lost decades."
It is precisely because of this 60% that the United States has started to attack China frequently in recent years!
This is not accidental, but the result of the long-term evolution of the macroeconomic situation of the two countries.

At 1:59 on December 17, the lunar exploration project Chang'e-5 returner successfully landed in the planned area of ??Inner Mongolia, marking the successful completion of China’s first extraterrestrial celestial body sampling and return mission. This is also the first time human beings have brought back lunar soil in 44 years.
As usual, the mission has received lots of attention worldwide. Research institutions, media and netizens in various countries have expressed different opinions.
I think there are important things that this lunar mission says about China. The mission proves that the Chinese nation does what it says.
Another lesson I draw is that as the international "space race" is becoming increasingly fierce, it is down to a competition of institutional and cultural advantages.

Since China discovered the COVID-19 virus in January 2020, countries around the world have successively fallen into the quagmire of the epidemic. In this epidemic, the collective failure of the Western world was mainly shown in Britain and the United States.
The first is that the United Kingdom and the United States have advocated the herd immunity strategy and allowed the virus to spread in the early stage; the second is that the liberal values ??of supremacy of individual freedom in the United Kingdom and the United States have poisoned people’s mind for many years, causing a considerable proportion of people to refuse to isolate at home and also refuse to travel with masks.
I still recall clearly that ethnic Chinese and Asian were mocked on the streets of America and some were even beaten just because they wore masks. American health care professors told people not to wear masks since they should be reserved for medical workers only.
After the outbreak of the epidemic, the governor of New York publicly said that according to the information he received, the virus only infects Asians. The finance minister of Japan also said that he was ridiculed in the February 2020 G7 meeting that the virus only infects Asians. Under such psychological expectations, Western countries as a whole refuse to take decisive measures to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
As the number of people infected in countries around the world increases, large-scale protests have erupted in Britain, France, Germany, the United States and other countries, opposing wearing masks, opposing isolation, and even extreme anti-intellectual forces have consistently declared that the epidemic does not exist!
In the prevention of any infectious disease, the first thing to do is to control the source of infection, secondly is to cut off the route of transmission, and thirdly is to protect the high risk population. This is just basic common sense.
It is no exaggeration to say that under the guidance of Anglo-American liberal values, some people in Western society not only lack basic scientific common sense, but also seriously lack morality and considerateness, and they have completely become anti-intellectual and anti-moral.

Trump called on fans to gather in Washington and captured Capitol Hill on 6 January, making the so-called democracy of the United States a joke. But now a bigger joke has appeared.
Major online media platforms in the Western world, such as Facebook and Twitter, announced that Trump's account will be permanently blocked, depriving him of the right to express his thoughts.
This is the free world? Where is his freedom of speech?
Moreover, we are talking about the current president of the United States, and he just won 74 million votes and is supported by nearly half of the Americans. Such an opinion leader who represents nearly half of the public opinion in the United States has now been completely blocked by the American capitalists.
For a long time, some people have said that European and American societies have free speech.
“Although I do not agree with what you said, I swear to defend your right to speak.” is a famous quote that deceived countless Chinese people. Now Trump uses his actual experience to show that this is a lie.
The reality is “I do defend your right to speak, but I will also keep your voice from being heard by anyone if I disagree with you.”
The three major online platforms of Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube have now joined forces to completely block Trump. Trump's Twitter account once had 88.76 million followers and was the world's leading internet celebrity and one of the biggest voices in the United States.
But now, this account is blank. All the tweets that Trump has posted are no longer available.

This is a special episode in light of the riots at Capitol Hill .
January 6, 2021 is a day that can be recorded in history and a day worth remembering. Hundreds of Trump supporters broke through barriers to enter the U.S. Capitol to put pressure on the Congress, which is undergoing election results certification. .
The demonstrators clashed with the police, the congressmen were evacuated urgently, and the electoral vote verification procedure was forced to suspend. According to the Washington DC Police Chief, five people have died in violent demonstrations so far.
After experiencing the democratic farce of the American protesters occupying Capitol Hill, on January 7, US Vice President Pence once again presided over the joint congressional meeting to count and verify the votes of the electoral college in the 2020 presidential election. Pence officially announced that Biden won 306 electoral votes, Trump won 232 electoral votes, and Biden was elected the next president of the United States.
Although Biden was successfully approved by the procedure to be elected president, January 6, as a humiliating page in American history, is destined to go down in history.
The entire West was shocked by this riot, and Biden even claimed that the United States wanted to "rebuild democracy."
People in the rest of the world can't help but sigh. Isn't the United States a beacon of democracy? Why does it need to "rebuild democracy" now? In fact, to put it bluntly, even the American political elites themselves realize that the United States is so chaotic. The former beacon of democracy has already collapsed and no longer shines!
When Trump came to power, he claimed to make the United States great again, which means that the United States was no longer great four years ago; four years later, Biden said that American democracy will be rebuilt, which shows that the United States is no longer democratic. Therefore, in just a few years, the United States is neither great nor democratic. This is the current situation in the United States. The self-confidence of the Americans has been consumed by themselves.

When the leaders of China and Europe announced the completion of negotiations on the China-EU Investment Agreement as scheduled. I published an article as quickly as possible, analyzing the significance of this matter mainly from the perspective of geopolitics. Today, I will talk about the significance for China to further deepen reform and expand opening up as well as why Europe chooses to reach an agreement at this time.
For the Chinese citizens, on the one hand, they recognize the geopolitical significance of the China-EU Investment Agreement to China, and on the other hand, they are also worried about whether China will make too many concessions and ultimately lead to damage to their interests.
In 2001, when China joined the World Trade Organization (WTO), there were similar concerns. At that time, in order to join the WTO, China also had to open up its domestic market and drastically amend its laws and regulations. But looking back now, China's accession to the WTO was a major historic event. It was after joining the WTO that China quickly became a global manufacturing center, and its economic aggregate continued to surpass traditional Western developed countries, and it surpassed Japan in 2010 to rank second in the world.

In the evening of December 30, 2020, the negotiation of the China-EU Investment Agreement was completed as scheduled.
The announcement was made during a meeting between President Xi and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Emmanuel Macron, President of the European Council Charles Michel and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen via video link.
President Xi regarded the agreement as "balanced, high-standard and mutually beneficial," and the treaty has shown China's determination and confidence to push high-level opening up. "The agreement will provide greater market access, higher level of business environment, stronger institutional guarantees and brighter cooperation prospects for mutual investment". The treaty will also greatly boost world economic recovery in the post-pandemic era, enhance the international community's confidence in economic globalization and free trade, making significant contributions to the building of an open world economy.

Before the Trump administration stepped down, it was suppressing China like crazy. In mid-December, it added more Chinese companies to the entity list, including Chinese chip manufacturers.
There are two main reasons why Trump and his team did this:
First, to use his remaining ruling time to continue to implement his strategy of treating China as a competitor, suppress and contain China, and attempt to disrupt and delay the rise of China;
second, handicapping Biden's China policy, and exploiting the current strong anti-China mood in Washington, thus making it difficult for Biden to cancel them immediately.
For China, the most important thing is to strengthen confidence, maintain strategic determination, and run its own affairs well.
Trump has been in power for four years and launched a full-scale "trade war" in March 2018, he has become increasingly crazy, extreme and irrational. This shows the panic and gaffe of some American elites about China's continued development.
They are now determined to suppress and contain China. They don’t need any excuse anymore. Even if they severely undermine international rules, they don’t care. To put it bluntly, this naked hegemonic act is: "You are stronger, so I want to kill you, I don’t need to make any other reason.”
The various so-called national security reasons given by the US government are untenable. The world must have a clear understanding of this, and it is still frantically suppressed by the United States at this moment. Any one defedining, and giving excuses to beautify American hegemonism are naive and wrong.
The next China's strategy toward the United States is to "strengthen self-confidence, maintain determination, self-reliance, and actively seek breakthrough"

Unlike the United States, where the market development has reached its limits, China's economy itself has at least four major market dividends:
First, urbanization dividends. Although the population of China living in cities and towns has reached 60%, the actual level of urbanization is only about 50%. These two figures are far from the general urbanization rate of 75% to 90% in developed countries. It determines that China's domestic demand growth space is huge and long-term, and will continue for at least 20 years.
The second is the labor productivity dividend. Although China is the world's largest manufacturing country, China's per capita GDP is just over US$10,000, labor productivity is still at a low level, and there is still huge room for improvement. Mechanization, electrification, artificial intelligence, asset securitization, etc. can greatly increase labor productivity, and there is still a lot of room for optimization and refinement of the social division of labor, which determines that development space is still large.
Given China’s market size and space, China can certainly catch up with the United States in terms of per capita GDP, from US$10,000 to US$66,000. You can imagine the vast opportunities.
More importantly, all of this is in China’s control. China has the corresponding population base, education base, science and technology base, industrial base, etc., and the improvement of labor productivity is not constrained by any country.
The third is to expand consumption dividends. Why is China's expanding consumption dividend so strong? There are three reasons: one is the objective demand for urbanization in China, the second is the room for improvement in China's labor productivity, and the third is China's savings rate as high as 45%. These three points determine that China not only has the current consumption potential supported by the high savings rate, but also the potential for urbanization and labor productivity improvement. This determines that China's consumption potential is sustainable and continuously developing. Therefore, China has great potential to expand its consumption dividend, and China's future market space will be at least five times that of the United States.
The fourth is the innovation and upgrade bonus. For China, technological innovation, industrial upgrading and model innovation are all dividends. In terms of scientific and technological innovation, China has already made global leading breakthroughs like 5G, and there are also a series of other breakthroughs that are relatively leading, and there is huge room for breakthroughs in some backward areas. This determines that technological innovation can bring China a huge bonus.
The same is true for industrial upgrading. China’s R&D upgrading will bring about industrial upgrading and technological upgrading, which will increase labor productivity. At the same time, the huge market of 1.4 billion people also determines the huge room for model innovation.
The dividends of innovation and upgrading in the United States and Europe are no longer as large. They are already developed countries and belong to the post-industrial era. Therefore, the space for innovation and upgrading is not as huge as China.
China Explained will show you that because of China’s continued success in industrial upgrading, technological innovation and realizing its huge potential, it is an unstoppable process. The inevitable rise of China may feel intimidating and some simply reject it. Don’t be. China’s rise is part of the new global trend unlike what we have seen in the past one hundred years.

In 1972, someone asked Chairman Mao Zedong: "If capitalism were restored in China again, will the common people endure hardship again?"
Chairman Mao said:"You over-estimated them, they don't know what capitalism is? The best they could do is restore the feudal and colonial ways. Capitalism accumulates assets by invading and plundering other countries. Who do Chinese capitalists dare to invade?" "They can only exploit their own people or sell their own country's resources cheaply, in order to satisfy one's insatiable selfish desires."
At that time, people didn't understand and thought Chairman Mao was exaggerating. Most countries in the world are capitalist, and it should not be too bad. But decades later, we now see that he was right.
In recent months, the internet giants in the West, like Facebook, Amazon and Google, as well those in the East, like Samsung, LG, Alibaba and Tencent, are facing increasing scrutiny by the governments because of their monopolistic tendencies.
You may have noticed that the largest IPO in human history, the Ant Financial, was halted at the last minute by the Chinese government in November. Ant Financial talks about big data, algorithms, financial innovation, high-tech, but in fact, it is essentially a money lending company. They use 3 billion yuan as the principal, plus a hundred times leverage, to give out 300 billion yuan in loans. Once something goes wrong, Ant Financial cannot take the burden, and hundreds of billions of dollars of losses would be beared by the country and the people.
Other Chinese internet giants like Meituan, Pindoudou, Didi and Bytedance, etc. do not learn this lesson, but instead propose a new scheme called "community group buying". In essence, these internet giants collectively enter the grocery shopping market of common people in order to harvest the wallets of middle-aged and elderly people. Now looking back at Chairman Mao’s words, do these actions echo his words?
They have a huge amount of capital, but they don’t have the courage to go abroad to expand their territory. Every penny and energy is spent within China. After the e-commerce market is divided, they will release loans, deliver food, taxis, and sell cabbage… When the domestic market is fully carved up and all areas under their giant monopoly, they will be able to enjoy lucrative rental income. By that time, the Chinese could hardly avoid these companies in their everyday lives. At that time, there will be no motivation to innovate.
It is nothing more than the exploitation of the landlord in the feudal era hidden under the skin of the Internet.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt is the 32nd President of the United States and is well-known in the United States and China. In the United States, he is called FDR. In China, he was called "Roosevelt Junior" to distinguish him from his uncle, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States.
In 1932, in the midst of a severe financial crisis, Roosevelt was elected President of the United States. His "New Deal" helped the United States get out of the worst economic crisis of the 20th century. He is the only person in American history to win four presidential elections, and he is also the wartime president of the United States during World War II.
In November 1943, the dawn of victory in World War II emerged. Leader of the Chinese National Party Chiang Kai-shek flew to Cairo and reached the Cairo Declaration with American President Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Churchill. The most important part for China is that Japan must return Manchuria and Taiwan to China.
During his life, Roosevelt only did some government work and earned a meager income, but he owned a mansion in New York, and his children went to very good private schools.Why is this?
This is because of the "Delano" (D in FDR) in his name, which is his mother's surname and a very wealthy family in New York.
Roosevelt's grandfather, Warren Delano, was one of the largest merchants engaged in the opium trade with China after the Opium War in 1840. During the Opium War, Britain used warships and guns to pry open the door of China, and “legally” exported a steady stream of opium to China, eventually making China the “sick man of East Asia” in the eyes of Westerners.
At that time, Britain, through the East India Company, grew opium in India and exported it to China, and then used the silver in exchange to buy Chinese tea, silk and porcelain, which were sold to Britain. This trilateral trade has brought huge wealth to many businessmen. Britain also granted franchise rights to China's opium trade to merchants from other countries, including Roosevelt's grandfather Warren Delano.
Warren Delano was not unique. American historians found that the huge wealth brought about by the opium trade supported the construction of the first industrialized city in Massachusetts. Even the entire east coast of the United States has traces of wealth brought about by the opium trade, including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Columbia, places that are looked up to by countless Chinese as the world’s top universities. They have all benefited from the opium trade with China. In addition, the opium trade funded the construction of the first five railroads in the United States.
Today, there are still some Chinese people who are still obsessed with the so-called "favors" to China in American history. But few of them know the history of American merchants grabbing huge wealth from China because of the opium trade. They don't even know how many Chinese people have lost their health, lost their homes and died because of opium wealth in the glamorous cities on the east coast of the United States.
It can be said that in the more than 100 years when the Chinese nation was at its weakest, the United States, as a late-comer, has never been absent from plundering and oppressing China. This is an iron fact.

This article will talk about two recent incidents that reflect the morality of the West and China and seek to answer why the West keeps demonising China.
One is that the BBC has asked ordinary Chinese for interviews. It stands to reason that China has defeated the epidemic and its economy has recovered. But the BBC’s focus is obviously not this kind of positive news on China. Through the interviews, they spread the message that China should apologize.
At the end of the article: it says “But for some people, there is still a lot of uncertainty in the future. Interviewee A is worried about how she and her friends will be treated after going abroad. Interviewee B said there is a way to ease this anxiety, that is to say sorry for what happened.”
To be honest, why do Westerners cling to the hope that China will apologize?
Why always put China in an immoral position in public opinion?
Is it because China spread the disease to other countries?
If this logic holds true, in 2016, the Zika virus spreaded wildly before the Rio Olympics causing panic among athletes. Did anyone ask Brazil to apologise?
The first case of AIDS in China was an American Argentine, and the main transmission came from Thailand. The first confirmed MERS patient was a Korean, and the first confirmed H1N1 patient in China was a returnee from the United States. So do the United States, South Korea, and Thailand need to apologize to China?
China is clearly a victim of COVID19. Why does it need to apologize?
In contrast, the 2008 world financial crisis was caused by the subprime mortgage crisis brought out by the United States. This is a real man-made disaster. So should the United States apologize and pay compensation?

2020 is about to pass. This year, the United States imposed stricter sanctions and blockades on China in high-tech and high-end manufacturing industries. More than 300 Chinese institutions, universities, and enterprises were sanctioned by the United States. It uses the power of the whole country to crack down on China's core enterprises, key technologies and major projects. Under the severe sanctions, blockades and crackdowns imposed by the United States, what happened to China's high-tech and high-end manufacturing industries? Have they been beaten down by the United States? Facts have proved that China not only has not been beaten down, but has also caught up with or even surpassed the United States at a more rapid rate, and made major breakthroughs in the following top ten high-tech fields in 2020.
- "Silicon-Graphene-Germanium Transistor" was successfully developed.
- The domestically produced scramjet engine achieved a duration of 600 seconds, breaking the world record.
- Beidou navigation system completed satellite networking.
- China's Mars probe "Tianwen-1" launched
- The successful first flight of the independently developed amphibious aircraft "Kunlong" AG600
- The "Struggle" manned submersible dived to a depth of 10,909 meters.
- Chang'e-5 completed the "digging" on the moon and took off.
- The world's first Hualong No. 1 reactor was successfully connected to the grid.
- China's quantum computing prototype "Nine Chapters" came out
- A major breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology! The first discharge of China's new generation of "artificial sun"

What can’t China please the West?
There is a very popular saying among western netizens and media: China is now on the offensive everywhere, and you have no friends, you will destroy yourself.
I believe that many people in China also have doubts about this: China today has many frictions and conflicts with Western countries headed by the United States. It is tit-for-tat on various issues such as Hong Kong, Xinjiang, Taiwan and South China Sea. Will this cause China to be isolated in the world?
I would like to ask everyone to think about it. In all the current diplomatic disputes with China, which one was initiated by China? From Hong Kong, Xinjiang, to the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea, Western countries headed by the United States have imposed ideological and geopolitical disputes on China and the Chinese people. What China has done is nothing more than responding to the threats.
Is it wrong for China to defend its sovereignty, security, and core development interests on these key issues?
Is it true that China is the only good international citizen in the eyes of Westerners, only if China swallows its pride and is at the mercy of others?
We must understand the nature of the conflict between China and the West.

Today, I plan to talk about something interesting with you.
Have you considered this question? As robotics becomes more advanced and artificial intelligence becomes more and more advanced, will ordinary people have any meaning in the future?
Today, new robots are very expensive, but as long as the technology has improved to a certain level, the manufacturing cost of the robot can be very low, just like cars a hundred years ago versus cars today.
If one day in the future, we can manufacture robots at a very low cost, such as US$10,000 each, and robots have high intelligence and can replace most humans in doing most of the work, what should we do?
Robots can do housework, can be waiters, workers, even engineers and doctors, and they can work 24 hours a day without sleep.
Since the knowledge carrying capacity of robots is infinite, intelligent robots are all top medical experts, and they are general practitioners. They can tackle all diseases.
What else can ordinary people do, where else can they find work?
What's more frightening is that robots can make more robots themselves.
Every robot has all the knowledge of the human world, and can also engage in any job. It can be a construction worker or a power station designer, and it can also build a new robot factory by itself.

On the afternoon of November 27, in broad daylight, the Iranian senior nuclear physicist Muhsin Fakrizad was assassinated near the capital Tehran.
The outside world generally believes that the assassination of Fakrizad was carried out by Israel supported by the United States and Saudi Arabia, with the purpose of undermining the development process of Iran's nuclear program.
On January 3, 2020, Soleimani, commander of the Al-Quds Brigade of the Islamic Republic of Iran's elite force, was assassinated by the United States in Iraq.
It can be said that in 2020, the United States has used its powerful hegemony to slap the Iranian people with two loud slaps.
When a country is closed and backward, it will become a fish on the cutting board of a powerful country. This is the cruel truth that China has learned time and time again in more than 100 years of modern history. Even in the 21st century, the law of the jungle of international relations has not changed much.

Why no one else can criticise the West?
The news about the Australian Prime Minister Morrison asking China to apologize because the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson uploaded a picture on Twitter continues. This picture was hand-painted by the Chinese artist, reflecting the Australian soldiers’ massacre of civilians in Afghanistan. Morrison said, "It was a fake photo and a terrible insult to our troops."
In fact, this is not a photo, but a painting. The artist that created the painting has released another one as shown in the cover image of this episode.
The imagery of the new picture is also very direct: a group of western reporters surround and take pictures of the artist, hoping to frame his words and deeds. At the same time, Morrison covered piles of corpses with the Australian national flag while pointing finger at the artist, asking him to apologize. And behind all of them, the brutal massacre of civilians is still going on.
The problem was exposed, instead of solving the problem, they accused the person who pointed out the problem. This painting just shows the bloody reality.
According to a report issued by the Office of the Inspector General of the Australian Defence Forces on November 19, the Australian Army slaughtered at least 39 Afghan civilians, including young soldiers shooting prisoners at the command of the commander to complete the first shooting training. Special Forces killed two 14-year-old boys and slit their throats, shot a 35-year-old father and his 6-year-old son who were sleeping in the house, and shot and killed prisoners claiming there was a lack of space in a helicopter.
Therefore, the carnage reflected in this painting is indeed a fact, not a fabricated one.
But what interests me is the reporting behavior of the Western media. We can take the BBC as an example. In fact, after the release of the army report in Australia, the BBC reported the facts of the Australian army massacre and said it was a war crime.

Not only does China cannot condemn war crimes committed by Australian soldiers in Afghanistan, the Australian Prime Minister Morrison actually asked China to formally apologize.
The reason is ridiculous! What is going on here?
According to Australian Sky News, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison asked China to formally apologize on the grounds that the Chinese side "published and forged a propaganda picture of an Australian soldier who had cut a boy’s throat."
This is how it happened. On November 30, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson urged Australia to investigate the recent war crimes allegations and quoted the artist’s caricature in a tweet in which an Australian soldier held a knife against a child’s throat with the text "Don't be afraid, we are coming to bring you peace."
Morrison was very dissatisfied with this. He said at the press conference: "This is totally outrageous, and it is untenable on any basis... The Chinese government should feel ashamed that this post is published. This degrades China’s image in the eyes of the world." He also said that countries around the world are paying attention to how Beijing responds to the tensions in Australia-China relations.
Regarding Australian Prime Minister Morrison’s accusation against China, anyone who knows the truth will think that Morrison is really shameless!
Why do I say that?
Because what China asked Australia to investigate was an incident exposed by the Western media a few days ago. The video disclosed by the Western media showed that Australian soldiers used Afghan civilians as targets for "killing practice" in Afghanistan.
In the exposed video, Australian soldiers directly shot and killed innocent Afghan civilians for no reason. The commander of the Australian Defence Force also publicly admitted to 20 to 30 similar incidents. Two of the victims were only 14 years old, and their throats were cut with a dagger and their bodies were thrown into the river. Moreover, judging from the proficiency of Australian soldiers in shooting and killing, the numbers are probably far more than what they have admitted so far .
Australian soldiers conduct open killing training in Afghanistan. Isn't this bloody reality worse than the caricature quoted in the tweet? Australian soldiers were sent to Afghanistan by the Australian government. Isn't the Australian government responsible for this? Is it wrong for China to condemn this killing of innocent civilians?
It is heinous that, as the Prime Minister of Australia, Morrison not only did not feel ashamed for the war crimes committed by his own country’s soldiers, not only did he not apologize for it and conduct a thorough investigation, but he asked the Chinese who condemned the tweet to apologize. What is the logic? It is so unreasonable and totally absurd.

To be honest, I have never seen China make such an extraordinary move. It is simply not playing cards according to common sense. On November 20, China made it clear at the APEC informal summit that it is actively considering joining the CPTPP. This "ace" played by China has indeed had a great impact on the Asia-Pacific region.
Let's briefly introduce the context.
The full name of CPTPP is Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership. It was formerly the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), an anti-China free trade organization established by the United States.
The United States, Japan, Canada and other twelve countries reached the TPP agreement in October 2015. Although it did not expressly prohibit China from joining the TPP, many of the terms were designed specifically to bar China from joining.
So the effect of China’s joining CPTPP can be said as hitting three birds with one stone:
First bird: Join a potential anti-China economic organization before the return of the United States. Even if Biden wants to engage in a democratic values alliance against China it would not succeed due to economic constraints. Otherwise, why does Japan want China to take the lead in joining RCEP.
The second bird: Regardless of whether China's accession can take place, as long as this attitude is expressed, it will undoubtedly raise the cost of negotiations for the re-entry of the United States. Against the backdrop of rising domestic populism, can the Biden administration afford the price?
If it wants to pay that price, it is ok, anyway, the dominant power is on China’s side. According to the consensus decision making mechanism, as long as one side does not agree, the USA cannot join. China, Japan, and other countries can force the United States to spit out all the advantages it previously took, leaving the United States sliding deeper into an abyss of internal conflict amid stronger populist opposition.
The third bird: if it cannot afford to play that price? That's even better! On the Asian side, in RCEP, APEC, and CPTPP, China will participate and dominate the whole process. On the European side, the CAI China-Europe Comprehensive Investment Agreement is expected to be reached within this year. Eurasia will form a larger-scale closed loop of internal circulation. Guess who will be decoupled in the end? The Americans!

Before we begin, I want to say that the content of this episode is based on a theory. I surely do not have inside information on how the American political systems truly work behind the scene nor whether it is ultimately controlled by secretive financiers. But many of the analyses make a lot of sense. To the very least, I hope this is an enjoyable story for you.
Without further ado, let’s talk about the US election and the new world situation, this is indeed a very large issue.
Let's talk about the general election first, and then talk about the impact this election may have on the world structure.
The first question is what is the nature of the US presidential election. I don’t know if you have ever thought about this issue. Why does the United States have general elections, why do they change presidents frequently, and what is the nature of the US presidency?
This background knowledge is more critical, let me explain.
The USA is actually like a company, under the command and control of its boss. The boss hires a general manager every four years. Have you seen that a company chooses or elect its boss? Of course not. Because the ownership of the company is hereditary, it passes on from parents to their children. Only the general managers come and go.
If you think of a country as a company and the world government as a company, the same is true. So, knowing this, we can easily understand one thing, the President of the United States, to put it bluntly, is just a senior manager.
The President of the United States is not the most powerful person in the world. He is just standing at the front desk as the general manager. The boss behind the scene is the most powerful person or people in the United States. And this boss with the highest authority is invisible to the public.
Those that can be replaced and those that can be elected are essentially employees of the company.
China Explained will show you that because of China’s continued success in industrial upgrading, technological innovation and realizing its huge potential, it is an unstoppable process. The inevitable rise of China may feel intimidating and some simply reject it. Don’t be. China’s rise is part of the new global trend unlike what we have seen in the past one hundred years. Embrace the change and seize the opportunity.

A hundred years ago, the Spanish flu destroyed the old world of European powers, and the United States successfully took over the world hegemony from the old European powers. Today, a hundred years later, COVID19 has once again destroyed the world hegemony of the United States and has severely damaged the old world of the West.
The law of development of human civilization is to spiral upward. The new world of yesterday is the old world of today.The old world will be overthrown, and the new world will come.This is the historical law of materialism, which is not shifted by the wishes of any country or nation.
The wheel of history once crushed Eastern civilization. Western civilization began to expand globally after the age of discovery, occupying Africa, Australia, the North American continent, and the Pacific Islands, all the way to East Asia and defeating China. This is the first time in the history of human civilization that Western civilization has surpassed and overwhelmed Eastern civilization and has maintained its superiority for 400 years to this day.
In the “so-called major changes unseen in a thousand years”, the essential meaning is the rebirth of Eastern civilization, surpass Western civilization, realize the coexistence and balance of Eastern and Western civilizations, and promote the realization of “a community of shared future for mankind”. In the process of achieving a “community with a shared future for mankind”, human society will continue to explore future development paths, and the wealth of human society will re-flow and distribute. Therefore, paying attention to such a grand and magnificent historical trend in order to stand on the forefront of history, a step ahead of everyone else.
The old Western hegemony has collapsed, and the new world in the East is coming for all of us.
How can you shine in the new world? This is a question that everyone should think about.

If future historians re-visit 2020, they will most likely conclude that the COVID-19 epidemic has changed the world's political and economic trends.
From China's perspective, the epidemic is an arduous test of China's governance capabilities. The epidemic was first detected in Wuhan where the city faced a new and unknown virus. Due to the fact that scientific knowledge has not yet been established and some local government officials have been underperforming. From January to March this year, the entire Chinese society was full of doubts, fears, accusations, and even anger. At this time, some Western analysts predicted that the epidemic may become the Chinese version of the Chernobyl incident.
The United States, as the world’s only superpower, is also the object of many Chinese people to look up to. The various incidents encountered by the entire American society in 2020 have completely broken the so-called American system myth, and also allowed more Chinese people to see their own country objectively and established self-confidence.
The Trump administration's various anti-science and anti-common sense policies have baffled many Chinese. Even the basic action of wearing or not wearing a mask may become a highly politicized issue in the United States, and it has indeed rewritten many Chinese people’s perception of the United States. Today, a large number of Americans still believe that the coronavirus is a scam, and 40% of Americans say that they will not be vaccinated. In reality, although the vaccines of Pfizer and Moderna will be launched soon, the epidemic in the United States has also entered the worst and darkest moment, with the number of cases in one day exceeding 200,000. In many parts of the United States, the convoys of people waiting for testing and people receiving free relief food have been running continuously for several kilometers, which should not have happened in the most powerful country in the world. Medical staff across the country are exhausted, and the images they cry on TV are heartbreaking. The number of medical staff infected has exceeded 200,000, and the death toll has exceeded 800. There are also data showing that more than 90,000 people have died in nursing homes across the United States.

On September 22, 2020, during the Seventy-fifth UN General Assembly, after a 30-year breakthrough, China made a shocking commitment: “to reach the peak of carbon dioxide emission before 2030 and strive to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.”
The world was shocked . Even Western media who loves criticising China, have to uphold their principle of "environmental protection is the ultimate political correctness" and were forced to praise China’s commitment.
Key points: Strive to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.
The so-called carbon neutrality refers to the direct or indirect production of total greenhouse gas emissions predicted by countries, enterprises, groups or individuals within a certain period of time, and then through reforestation, energy conservation, emission reduction, and new energy substitution to offset their output carbon dioxide emissions. In other words, China will strive to achieve zero net carbon dioxide emissions nationwide by 2060.
We all know China has the highest industrial output and the most populous in the world.

October 2020 was the 70th anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteers’ going abroad to fight America and aid Korea.
First and foremost, I have to clarify a misconception about the Korean War. The war ended in a stalemate or a draw between the North and South Korea. But China won the war without question, why? When China joined the war, the American led “United Nations” troops were almost at the Chinese-Korean Border at the northernmost part of the Korean peninsula. When the armistice was signed three years later, the Chinese troops had pushed the American troops southwards for several hundred kilometers in the 38th parallel, the border that exists to this day. In other words, not only did Chinese troops stop American troops from taking over the entire Korean peninsula, but also defeated and drove them back southwards and held that position despite repeated American counter-attacks. The significance of this victory cannot be overstated.

On 15 November, the "Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement" (RCEP) signing ceremony was carried out via video link. This marks the successful start of the construction of the East Asia Free Trade Zone with the largest population, the most diverse membership structure and the greatest development potential in the world.
Let me introduce you to the RCEP. Members include, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and the 10 members of ASEAN countries, Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. The negotiation of this agreement started at the end of 2012. It is considered to be the world's largest trade agreement. It covers 2.2 billion people, accounting for about 30% of the world's total population. The 15 member states have a GDP of 26.2 trillion US dollars, accounting for about 30% of the global economy. After the RCEP is signed, the tariff and non-tariff barriers between members will be greatly reduced, and the number of zero-tariff products in trade in goods will exceed 90%. This region has become a unified big market, and the circulation of resources, commodities, services, talents, capital, technology and other elements in the region will be more convenient. The advantages of this region will complement each other, the economic vitality will be stronger, and it will be more competitive than outside the region.

What was China doing when Americans fought amongst themselves?
The answer is, China held a high level session to plan the country’s development in the next five years and agreed on the medium term objective to the year 2035. The official name is called the 5th plenary session of the 19th Communist Party of China Central Committee in late October. I understand that over a million people from all walks of lives were involved in drafting the plans.
Since most people do not read official Chinese documents or fully understand their implications, this episode tries to explain the direction Chinese economy and society is heading in the next five years or possibly to year 2035.

On November 5, the day after the voting day of the 2020 US presidential election. "The New York Times" published an article by the 2008 Nobel laureate in economics Paul Krugman, titled “Is America becoming a failed state?”
In people's impression, the words "America" and "failed states" should never appear together. But in 2020, the United States is infinitely approaching the traditional definition of a "failed country", due to uncontrollable epidemic; Economic recession; intensified Racial conflicts; Election chaos and failed Government mechanism.
I, the New York Times and many people came to this rational conclusion after carefully analyzing the main contradictions in American society and the current institutional crisis facing the American government. This point of view was also echoed to a certain extent by Joseph Stiglitz, another American Nobel Prize winner in Economics in 2007 as well as the influential Ray Dalio, the founder of the world's largest hedge fund Bridgewater

The death toll from the epidemic in the United States has exceeded 200,000, and the number of infections is close to 7 million. It is likely that the epidemic in the United States will continue for many more months.
I remember that when the epidemic broke out in China, officials in Wuhan did not respond properly at the beginning and led to a lot of public grievances. Western media began to spread a view that the epidemic would become China’s Chernobyl incident, implying that improper response to the epidemic will be the last straw to overwhelm the Chinese system. After just 2 months, the epidemic in China has been very well controlled, economic recovery has progressed steadily, and people's lives have basically returned to normal.
But in the United States, the Trump administration politicized the epidemic from the very beginning, and even on the common sense issue of wearing or not wearing a mask. In the end, the epidemic was almost completely out of control and the American people paid a heavy price. Looking back, the epidemic is more like the US version of the "Chernobyl" incident. It fully exposed the shortcomings and problems of the US system and broke the myth of the so-called superiority of the US system.

If business technology is a long-term, or permanent field of competition between China and the United States in the future, then discussing the core issues of business technology is not simply a specific enterprise or technology issue but about national potential and greater human dreams.
What I want to say is that the issue of competition and cooperation between China and the United States is related to the destiny and specific direction of humankind. Because China has sufficient scale and historical independence, as well as profound cultural heritage and market space, from a longer-term perspective, it can nurture new standards and development logic. This is different from the development path of many countries. US cannot afford to lose but finds it too hard to defeat China
For example, if we follow the United States slow pace of developing 5G technology, I am afraid that it will take decades for the world to enter the 5G era. Were it not for China to take the lead in the 5G field, the global cost of popularizing 5G will at least double. It is like saying that if China hadn’t mastered high-speed railway technology, the possibility of cheap high-speed rail in many developing countries will no longer exist.
Many people may not understand what I mean. For example, the bullet train in Japan was built in 1964, but which developing country is it exported to? Since 2008, China has nearly 40,000 kilometers of high-speed rail, and high-speed rail has been built in several countries, including Russia, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Mexico and Turkey. Today, the cost of high-speed rail in Japan is still more than twice that of high-speed rail in China. I have been saying that delaying China's development is actually weakening the welfare of all humankind.

China is the world's only single market with the largest scale in the entire industry chain.
Some of you may wonder how much threat are "Made in India" and "Made in Vietnam" to "Made in China"? After this episode, you will never ask this question again.
China is the world's only single market with the largest scale in the entire industry chain. Let me repeat the three points: single market, largest scale and entire industry chain.
Made in China has never been to compete with India and Vietnam, but to reconstruct the framework of the earth’s civilization, establish a global community with a shared future for mankind, and disrupt the hegemony of the United States to plunder the earth. India’s competitor is China, and China’s competitor is the rest of the world.

Why China keeps investing in Military Technology?
I’m thinking about a question recently. Suppose there is a country on the earth that has the level of science and technology, that is, the level of development of civilization, which has reached the point where hundreds of millions of people can be immigrated to other planets in a short period of time. Other countries become lower civilizations by comparison.
And if you happen to grow up in this high-civilized country, my question is, do you care about the social system adopted by other low-civilized countries, what laws they have promulgated, and what are their national strategies? Definitely not, it's like humans don't care how tigers, lions and gorillas divide their territories.
The reason why China, the United States, and major economies around the world, are in a stage of fierce competition, and the reason why everyone is still stuck in the fields of ideology, religious beliefs, and value systems is that everyone is actually in the same level of civilized state, no one is much higher than anyone, and the purpose of everyone's competition is only to obtain a little advantage under the same level.
This difference is similar to the difference between 1.01 and 1.02, not the difference between 1.0 and 2.0. Therefore, as long as the balance of technology tilts a little bit to one side, anyone can gain a great competitive advantage.
What does science and technology mean to human beings? A simple and rude logical explanation is that whoever masters more advanced technology has more efficient production tools, and whoever has more resources and a sense of security. Before the outbreak of the Industrial Revolution, the total value of production created by mankind in thousands of years was less than that created in the 100 years after the outbreak of the Industrial Revolution. This is also the power of science and technology.

So I went to watch the new Disney movie "Mulan". To be honest, it was the lead actress Liu Yifei's face that allowed me to watch the whole movie. The biggest disappointment and revelation from this movie lies in the logic of Americans telling Chinese stories.
I guess you will not go watch that movie so I'll spoil it a little bit. This is the only and final spoiler alert.
Through the movie "Mulan", we can also understand a little bit why China's cultural export always fails and how to save it. The first disappointment is the concept of the family. The movie kept saying she fights for the family. It feels that the country is never important, and the glory and future of the family are the goals of one's struggle. Well, this logic is very European and American.
The second disappointment is the concept of “Qi”or internal energy.
In the movie, Mulan is a gifted girl with a huge amount of unawakened “Qi” hidden in her body. Mulan must be shown as a female in order to stimulate the Qi in her body and in order to level up to defeat the final boss.
Those who have never watched a movie can still understand that this Mulan is no different from American blockbuster characters such as Iron Man and Spiderman. They are born with extraordinary talents and are different from ordinary people. They are destined to achieve great things. The only thing they need is a chance.

Recently, there was an audience comment that America controls most of the world’s oil and can easily start an embargo and starve China. Indeed, the only country that can threaten China's oil security is the United States.
Because even if China does not produce a drop of oil, as long as the United States does not block and threaten China, China's oil security problems will not exist. For example, Japan's dependence on foreign oil exceeds 99%, but after the Second World War, Japan has never encountered problems with oil security . The reason is simple, because Japan has become an ally of the United States.
Another question is, if China become an ally of the United States, can it solve its oil security issue? Sadly, no.
Oil security must be dynamic and based on commercial interests. Therefore, China must interweave the commercial interests of oil in the entire Asia-Pacific region, and even spread to the entire Asia and other continents, so that China can truly achieve low cost oil safety.
Because if America’s allies depend on China’s strong oil supply capacity, the world’s major industrial countries depend on China’s petrochemical raw material supply, and the main market for the U.S. auto industry is also in China, then oil blockade on China will affect everybody.
Therefore, the issue of oil security is not so much a question of whether China can be self-sufficient, but rather a question of how China deals with the US's extreme suppression and maintains sufficient deterrence in the event of conflict. Furthermore, it is the question of whether China has the ability to change the global oil industry system and dominate the future human energy research and development and utilization.

In previous episodes, we repeatedly look through human history, read through the history of global civilization, see through the rise and fall of many empires,, and finally explained to you how China developed its economy and nation. This episode is about the importance of Chairman Mao Zedong in shaping China into what it is today.
What established the rejuvenation of the great Chinese nation?
It was the battle against the Allied Forces of 16 nations in Korea in 1950; it was the solid industrial foundation laid by the Mao Zedong era; it was Mao Zedong's policy of serving the people to make China great again!
Mao Zedong, leading New China, pierced the dome of the imagination of the Chinese nation and made the Chinese rejuvenation truly possible.
Looking through 5,000 years of human history, traversing the history of human civilization, seeing through the rise and fall of many empires, and removing layers of fog, this is the truth we have discovered: the importance of Mao can never be underestimated.

Some may wonder why Chinese culture is the only survivor among all ancient human civilization. Many people don't pay much attention to this problem, because they are often focused on national power and miss the strong vitality of Chinese culture, and they do not have the ability to conduct comparative investigations around the world. Today, I shared the findings of a scholar who spent decades traveling around the world's major ancient cultural sites.
Due to the relative decline of China in the past two centuries, the advantages of Chinese culture have almost been ignored, and even misinterpreted as disadvantages. The result has greatly tarnished the image of Chinese culture. The good news is that the era of completely turning a blind eye to Chinese culture seems to have passed. Even in distant places, the eyes of interest began to shift to Chinese culture.

Western countries are particularly unable to understand China's mode of existence, and they are extremely confused as to why China can persist for a long time.
China has always been a powerful central empire in history, but there are many other powerful empires throughout history, the West has repeatedly appeared in a central empire that is no weaker than China.
The Roman Empire, the Persian Empire, the Macedonian Empire, the Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman Empire are all famous super empires, but these powerful empires are short-lived. Even the British empire on which the sun never sets also declined.
For thousands of years, China has been unified for more than 90% of its time. It has been a complete super empire with very strong cohesion.
This makes the Europeans very incomprehensible and amazed. Europeans are not only divided among themselves, but after Europeans went to colonize the world, they saw that the world was composed of small fragmented countries. Even in India, which looks huge today, before the British colonists came, it was divided. Hundreds of divided territories fought against each other.

While the US government is vigorously attacking China, US companies are vigorously investing in China, these companies seem to be very optimistic about the living standards and consumption potential of the Chinese people.
This is a bit embarrassing. If according to the rhetoric of the US government, the Chinese are all living in hell, and the government has the final say on what they buy, and they don’t even have a minimum "freedom." How can society progress, Income growth or consumption potential? The US government should force and encourage US companies to invest in Afghanistan and Iraq. After all, they are countries that have just been "reformed" by the US. Isn't it too risky to come to Communist China?
It is precisely because the industrial revolution has little to do with specific social systems that the United States is now very worried about the development of Chinese technology. Assuming that the United States is very confident that a set of American systems can have advantages that the world can't match, and can sit back and relax in the future technological innovation competition, then there is no need to suppress and contain Chinese technology companies. Right?
What I want to say is, whether it is the accidental outbreak of the Industrial Revolution in the UK, or the large-scale development in the United States, and then to Germany and Japan to jump to a new level, in fact, once everyone understands the power of the industrial revolution, the industrialization development will happen sooner or later. Today, China’s industrial scale and industrial competitiveness, as well as the emerging technological Cambrian explosion is the best proof for all these.

The COVID19 epidemic is a global "black swan" event in 2020, and it is still spreading. I believe that the epidemic has become the most significant crisis in the field of global governance, and it can even be called the first "world war" in the field of non-traditional security. It has caused distressing lives and property losses to countries all over the world and has a structural impact on globalization. At present, China's epidemic prevention and control war has achieved major strategic results and won the recognition of most countries. But China must not only prepare for long-term coexistence with the epidemic, but also make corresponding plans for what is happening and the great changes in the world after the epidemic.
Anti-globalization is a phenomenon that has appeared before the outbreak of the epidemic. Contemporary globalization since the Reagan era advocates privatization, free trade, and open markets, and promotes trade between countries to improve production efficiency. While globalization creates wealth, it also creates a huge gap between the rich and the poor. The information revolution in the 1990s has increased the return gap between the financial industry, advanced service industries, and high-tech companies and other industries. In developed countries such as the United States, the manufacturing industry is shrinking. Domestic blue-collar workers are dissatisfied with the "offshoring" and believed that foreign manufacturing competitors have "stolen" their jobs; populist politicians took the opportunity to claim it was the globalists" and "establishment elites" in the government and large enterprises colluded with foreign countries to harm their own national interests. In developing countries, economic nationalists emphasize the importance of industrial protection, and politicians in some countries refer to multinational companies as "neo-colonialists", inciting people to oppose transnational economic cooperation.
China’s top priority is still to restore economic production and ease the pressure of small and medium-sized enterprises and low-income workers. China needs to be prepared for a prolonged war, develop a fast and effective mechanism of coexisting with the virus to maintain the operation of economic machinery. In short, only by recovering from the epidemic as soon as possible can China be more confident in coping with the challenges and seeking more long-term development.

Due to the sensitivity of the Taiwan issue in Sino-US relations, when Sino-US relations are good, the United States will be more restrained and even suppress Taiwan’s internal Taiwan independence forces and prevent them from becoming "troublemakers." However, Sino-US relations are not good, so various political forces within the United States will play the "Taiwan card" and create "trouble" in cross-strait relations.
The purpose of the United States playing the Taiwan card is actually very simple. First, to advertise to the world that the United States supports so-called freedom and democracy; second, to strategically contain China; third, to seize the opportunity to sell weapons to Taiwan and collect protection fees .
After the Trump administration came to power, it listed China as the number one strategic competitor of the United States, so the "Taiwan card" must be played. Weapons were also sold more often. Trump is very happy to bring profits to the American arms dealers.
However, if you look closely, the United States offers nothing other than beautiful words to Taiwan, and by the way, it has not made any substantial "concessions" to Taiwan whether it is from a political, diplomatic, or economic point of view.
The reason why Taiwan stays close to the American is also well understood. It is like whistling at night in order to make yourself less afraid.

Many people have judged that due to the current Trump election weakness, from now until the US election on November 3, Trump is likely to continue to create conflicts between China and the United States to boost his chances in the election, and Sino-US relations have thus entered the most dangerous phase. Another reason why Sino-U.S. relations have entered a dangerous period is that some people in the Trump administration are systematically planning a confrontation with China, hoping to launch a "new cold war" in the 21st century for the sake of safeguarding the hegemony of the United States itself, and seek the “decoupling” of China and the United States as far as possible.
On the issue of Sino-US relations, China's attitude has always been clear. For China and the United States "cooperation will benefit both, and confrontation will hurt both." From trade wars to technology wars, from diplomatic wars to public opinion wars, every war was initiated by the United States, and China has not proactively challenged issues in Sino-US relations. For the clear-headed people in China, if China wants to continue to develop, it still needs to handle relations with the United States carefully. It is not in China's fundamental interests to seek a full confrontation with the United States. few people suggest that China and the United States should fight a "new cold war," and no one naively thinks that it does not matter if China and the United States are "decoupling." The fact is that China has always wanted to ease the tension between China and the United States, return the two sides to the track of negotiations and consultations, and do everything possible to prevent Sino-US relations from getting out of control.

Anti China Coalition?
In previous episodes, I talked about how the USA gets its national priorities wrong, and Europe and Britain’s national priorities do not include containing China. So, who else can the USA recruit to join its infamous “anti-China coalition? Let’s go through the list.
Apart from the EU and the United Kingdom, Russia has a very special relationship with China. Can the United States lure Russia to contain China? Let's analyze from the perspective of national priority .
What is Russia's first priority? I think it is still the development of the economy. If the economy no longer grows, it will be difficult to maintain its existing political, diplomatic, and military influence, let alone expansion. The question is, can the US help Russia's economic recovery? The fact is that the United States and Russia have a competitive relationship at the economic level, such as energy, military and agricultural exports. Both the United States and Russia are direct competitors. How can the United States help Russia complete the task of economic development?. So across the world, only Europe and China can help Russia’s economic recovery. However, the EU’s political rejection of Russia and the United States’ opposition to Russia-Europe energy cooperation will make it difficult to have more economic cooperation with the European Union.
In the end, everyone will ask this question, since China has been strong for thousands of years, but has it ever expanded to conquer the Philippines or Malaysia that are so close to China? On the contrary, Indonesia, Australia and many others all became Western colonies instead of being occupied by the more powerful China. Therefore, now that the United States has stepped up the rhetoric of the China threat theory in Southeast Asia, it is actually talking to itself, because the United States views Southeast Asia in terms of the history of the European continent. What puzzles the United States is, why can South East Asian countries tolerate and accept a continuously rising China? In fact, what the United States does not know is that in the thousands of years without the United States, people have accepted a China that is dozens of times stronger than themselves, and have lived in peace for thousands of years. Now the US keeps saying that China is a "threat", people begin to doubt its sincerity and true motive.

If I simply say that American allies will not follow the United States in containing China, many of you will of course not agree. So let me make another simple analysis based on the logic of each country’s primary and secondary tasks.
Let me talk about the EU first. Do you know what the EU’s first priority is? The EU’s first priority is unity, the second priority is to free itself from US control, the third priority is to prevent Russia from moving westward, and the fourth priority is energy security. As for responding to the rise of China, I am afraid that it will not be ranked in the top five, and it is precisely because of the rise of China that has provided the EU a chance to get rid of the United States.
What I want to say is that the European Union, which is dominated by Germany and France, may take some political actions against China in order to conform to the United States. This is a bargaining chip, but Germany and France’s first and even fifth priority is not a response to China’s rise. Therefore, pulling the EU to contain China is a false proposition.
Dealing with the rise of China is not even in the top ten tasks of the UK. Otherwise, what about the UK’s income from international students? Who will maintain the housing prices in the UK? Can the London financial center rely on the future RMB business to compete with New York?
The United States wants the United Kingdom to contain China, but the real intention of the United Kingdom is to stop a unified European continent. Their purpose and goals are completely different.

I intend to use another angle to study the problems of the American economy, because this is related to many future political and diplomatic issues in the United States, and in turn will have a greater impact on China and the world. Plagues and wars have always been events that change the course of history.
The US GDP in the second quarter fell by 32.9%. Although better than the forecast of some financial institutions, it is still shocking because this is the worst data for the US economy since 1947. In other words, it is difficult for many people to experience such a thing in their lifetime. The current unemployment rate in the United States is 14%, while before the outbreak, the unemployment rate was only 3%. The death toll in the United States due to the epidemic has exceeded 150,000. Former US presidential candidate Herman Kane also died of the virus, so don't think that the virus only kills people at the bottom.
If you know that the 32.9% economic contraction was already boosted by the huge financial relief of the government, you should understand how much impact the epidemic has on the United States. On March 25 this year, the White House and the Senate reached an agreement on a $2 trillion economic stimulus plan. Unemployed Americans are entitled to receive emergency unemployment benefits of $600 a week but does that allow the American people to survive the crisis?
According to data from the US Census Bureau in late July, nearly 30 million Americans did not have enough food to eat. The survey data shows that about 23.9 million of 249 million respondents indicated they had “sometimes not enough to eat” for the week ending July 21 and 5.42 million more indicated they had “often not enough to eat.” In total, about 12 percent of respondents reported not having enough food. Please note that this is the survey data released by the United States, not some fake media news.
This is why the United States will restart the economy even if the epidemic resures, because if work does not resume, the United States will really suffer a famine.
Many people may say that the United States is much richer than most of the world, it is impossible for them to go hungry. In fact, the abundance of goods really has nothing to do with whether you are hungry or not. If the economy cannot function normally, even if there is food, it will be difficult to distribute it to the people who need it. Industrial society is heavily dependent on division of labor and transactions. In the United States, the number of people who directly produce food and raw materials accounts for less than 2% of the total population. If the economy cannot restart, the entire production, transportation, and distribution links will be severely restricted. It is impossible to rely on the government's own system to distribute food.

Let's discuss the question mentioned in the title: whether Trump and Biden is a better US president for China?
China's perception of the influence of American domestic politics on China's national interests is constantly advancing with the times. When the political stances of the Democratic Party and the Republican Party of the United States are very clear, we generally believe that in relations with China, the Democratic Party pays more attention to topics in ideological fields such as democracy and human rights, while the Republican Party pays more attention to free trade. Relatively speaking, China prefers to deal with the Republican Party. But this concept was completely broken with the elections of Trump, the atypical Republican candidate.
In fact, Trump is not the Republican president in the traditional sense at all. He just entered the White House under the cloak of the Republican Party but the core of his basic political proposition is "extreme right-wing radical populist." Biden, who has been immersed in Washington's politics for decades, is more like a traditional Democratic politician.
In the past few decades, China’s perception of American politicians initially used the distinct differences of positions of the two parties to judge whoever is to China’s advantage, but later discovered that the both Democratic and Republican parties may have differences, but the starting point of any policy they adopt is to safeguard the national interests of the United States. After realizing this, China was able to take the party rotation in the United States more calmly.
Among Trump and Biden, the current mainstream view is that no matter who is elected, it is not a key factor for China. The most important thing for China is still to do its own thing in a steady manner. But this view can go to an extreme. It believes that Trump and Biden are essentially the same in dealing with China, and there is absolutely no need for China to pay attention to who is up and who is down. I think this view is wrong.
Party rotation is not the main factor affecting China’s development, but it does not mean that we do not need to deeply analyze the specific personality differences and policy preferences of the two parties’ presidential candidates, nor does it mean that China does not need to do anything. At this moment, we must not only see the "consistency" between Trump and Biden on the China issue, but also the huge differences in their specific China policies due to their personal characteristics and political ideas.
From a rational point of view, if Biden is elected, it is most likely to realize China's position of preventing crises, managing differences and strengthening cooperation. He must negotiate with China to discuss crisis prevention, manage differences, and how to strengthen cooperation with China in areas that are in the United States' national interests. This is precisely the situation that China most hopes to see.
Anyway, because of the painful lessons of 2016, no one now dares to predict whether Trump will be re-elected or Biden will come to power.

You may be surprised that there are few elites in China who like Tik Tok or its Chinese version Douyin. Everyone agrees that Douyin’s short video content consumes a lot of user time and has little educational benefits. Its use of recommendation algorithms makes the content addictive.The slogan of “resisting Douyin and saving China” was once very popular.
Unexpectedly, Trump actually came out to boycott Tik Tok, and wanted to completely block the existence of Tik Tok in the United States. However, the reason for the ban is not that it thinks American teenagers playing Tik Tok is not conducive to learning and growth, but that it threatens the national security of the United States. Anyone who watches those mindless and silly videos would agree that they have nothing to do with national security of the United States!
When Douyin was expanding overseas markets, in order to meet compliance requirements, it specially registered an overseas company and even changed its name to TikTok. Other than software core is the same, from the name to the main body of the company, TikTok is different from Douyin. It has been cut from the domestic company and implemented two different operating rules. Tik Tok has fully satisfied all the requirements put forward by the United States. TikTok complies with US laws and sets up its servers in the United States. All data stays in the United States only. The content reviewers are Americans. The middle and high-level managers are also Americans. Even the president is American. Except for the parent company, TikTok is an American company. In order to relieve the US government’s concerns, TikTok even announced that it will hand over its algorithm recommendation model to Americans for review.
In order to reflect its "inclusiveness and openness," the US government initially allowed the Chinese company TikTok to exist, at least for a while. Then, TikTok exploded in popularity, and reached the top of the global download list in January 2020, and continued its crazy speed.
In order to defeat TikTok, Facebook copied TikTok's model and launched short video softwares such as Lasso and Reels, but all failed. TikTok's users continue to grow wildly. The low-intellectual and entertaining short video content best satisfies the demand in the United States.
I am sure many of you have heard and are convinced of the following statements: The United States is a market economy, and the government will never intervene in the affairs of enterprises. It is regulated by the invisible hand of the market, which prevents government officials from seeking power. The United States is a country under the rule of law, and private property is sacred and inviolable. The United States is a democratic country. Everything depends on the operation of the system and does not rely on the rule of man at all. Even if a dog becomes president, the United States will not deviate from the right track.
Now that Trump forcibly banned TikTok and dispelled all of the above rumors in one go. Lies can deceive some for a while, but they cannot deceive forever.

The US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo recently delivered a long speech at the Nixon Presidential Library. The topic is "Communist China and the Free World’s Future". This speech is also called the "Iron Curtain Speech" of the 21st century because of many It is believed that like the "Iron Curtain Speech" delivered by the former British Prime Minister on March 5, 1946, which opened the curtain of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II, Pompeo's speech will also open the "new cold war" of China and the United States in the 21st century.
I suggest that everyone who is concerned about Sino-US relations read it, because only after reading the full text will you know how deep the prejudice and misunderstanding of some people in this US administration are towards China and how strong their hostility towards China is. After reading it, whether you are on the left or on the right, can you truly "give up your illusions on the Sino-US relationship.
Pompeo declared that the previous US government policy of engaging China did not meet the original target of induce change in China. China did not follow its design, taking the western liberal democracy path of. This is actually the common "logic" of the US's China policy in the past few years. The core view is that the US has helped China integrate into the international system, but China has not followed the Western path as the US expected.
For many people in China, this is totally incomprehensible: how come a country with a history just 200 years is so arrogant to think they can set the development path and direction for an ancient civilized country with five thousands years of civilization ?
After reading the words of American officials such as Pompeo, China's strategy in the near future should still be "abandon illusions, persist in struggle, hold the bottom line, and watch for changes." Regardless of the trade war or geopolitical competition between China and the United States, China does not want to cause trouble, but if the United States really wants to cause trouble, China will fight to the end.
For China, the most important thing is to strengthen confidence and maintain unity and rationality internally.

Stable and Prosperous China is a blessing to the world
Whenever the United States introduces a new policy to suppress China, people will complain about China's foreign policy, and say it should continue to keep a low profile and don’t turn against the United States.
But on the issues of Hong Kong, Taiwan, South China Sea, Huawei, how should China maintain a good relationship with the United States? How to keep a low profile? Imagine someone ran to your house and held a knife on your neck, are you still going to keep a low profile and maintain a good relationship with the robber?
On the one hand, China will defend its sovereignty. On the other hand, it will never allow the United States to create various confrontations and turn the neighboring countries against each other. Once Chinese forces withdraw, The end result is that the entire Southeast Asia will lose development opportunities.
I would like to ask, if you are an investor, would you invest in Libya now? But a lot of international capital is pouring into Southeast Asia. This is the result of the stability of the South China Sea. Many people say that the United States, the European Union, Japan, etc. are now investing in Vietnam. There are three main reasons. One is the entire Southeast Asian industrial chain established by China, which is Vietnam’s biggest advantage; the second is that under China’s firm will to maintain the regional situation, Vietnam can only develop its economy and not territorial expansion, which makes Vietnam have to focus on economic construction and creating a better business environment; the third is that Vietnam is learning from China’s reform and opening model from all aspects, which allows many investors to see a shadow of China's stable regime and service system from Vietnam, and confident for in long-term return on investment.
It is precisely because China does not hesitate to defend the development interests of mankind, and does not hesitate to say no to the hegemony of the United States, that is why global companies have a stable expectation of the entire Southeast Asia. If we look at the data, in the recent past, whether it is the US attack on China on the issue of the coronavirus or the provocations against China in areas such as Hong Kong’s National Security Law and the South China Sea, not only has it not affected the historical trend of economic development, but also It did not affect the choices of many entrepreneurs and investors.

How can China breaks through the strangulation of the United States
There is a saying that "The Sino-US relationship is the most important bilateral relationship in the 21st century." Today, Sino-US relations are so complicated that there are all kinds of conflicting voices in the United States and in China. from China’s viewpoint , the United States has been the rise of China's largest "unknown variable", it has three ultimate question:
What is the endgame of US strategy toward China?
What will the US do to China?
How can China breaks through the strangulation of the United States?
Faced with the strangulation of China by the "strategic containment faction" of the United States, China must remain united and calm.
First, China must distinguish between the U.S. government and the people, and not confront with the U.S. people, the business world, or even the whole world;
Scond, china must distinguish between the "strategic containment group" and the "competitive cooperation group" in the United States. Try not to affect the normal economic and trade, investment exchanges and academic exchanges.
Third, China must distinguish the United States from other countries in the Five Eyes alliance, maintain stability with New Zealand, and weaken the United Kingdom and Canada’s anti-China sentiment, but increase pressure on Australia.
Fourth, china must maintain stable relations with France, Germany and European Union as far as possible.
Fifth, China we must continue to build China's circle of friends in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
Of course, I always think that China should insist on the current correct policy of continued reform to release the vitality and creativity the people; expand opening up and expand integration with other countries and people in the world; always focus on the people, listen to their voice, enhance their well-being, promote inclusive growth, and achieve social justice.
As long as China is united and rational, China and the Chinese people will always be an invincible force.
Today, in the face of China’s competition, the United States lacks both institutional advantages and reform motivation. What the United States can do at present is to smear China, stir up trouble and use inferior tactics. In essence, it is not thinking about how to improve itself but only on how to screw things up in China. This kind of thinking is short-sighted. Common sense would tell you they will not succeed.

10 American Misconceptions about China
The misjudgment of China by the United States is the root cause of the current deterioration in Sino-US relations and an important factor in determining the final outcome of the Sino-US competition.
Some of the "misjudgments" made by the United States against China are due to ignorance, while others are intended to "define" China as an intentional villain. Some people in the United States very much hope that today's Sino-US competition will return to the past Cold War framework of the US-Soviet competition, because that is their comfort zone. If some people in the United States fantasize about "defining" China to win this competition, they can only say that they are deceiving themselves.

The biggest problem facing the world economy is the imbalance of the global economy, which has led to fundamental differences between China and the United States. China believes that the cause of the global economic imbalance is that the system version is too old to keep up with the global economic development, and a deep systemic crisis has appeared. Correspondingly, the solution to global economic imbalance is to upgrade Globalization 3.0 to version 4.0. The United States believes that because China's full access to global trade has caused global economic imbalances, it believes that kicking China out can solve the problem.
China wants to upgrade the globalization system, but how? the United States wants to go back to the old version, can it do so? In the divergence and see-saw between the new and the old,, where will the world economy go? How will the general trend of the world evolve?
Now that the United States began to move toward anti-globalization, made anti-globalization moves, and turned history back, history is calling for new leaders to drive this train of world history.
In the short term. the relationship between China and the United States will be more delicate, but a full-scale decoupling is impossible, let alone a full-scale war. With a full decoupling, the United States will only decline faster, which is not in its national interest. Although the two will not break up, they tacitly exist in a competitive relationship, and it is inevitable to bump into each other and disgust each other. However, the business that should be done between the two countries will continue. The kind of direct confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union back then is called the Cold War, and the future Sino-US relationship may be a kind of "fancy cold war."
To rebuild global demand and supply in the future and lead the world in globalization 4.0, Where does the demand come from? The urbanization of hundreds of millions of people who have not yet been fully urbanized is a huge demand. the integration of Asia, Europe and Africa with high-speed rail, through the "Belt and Road" to promote and complete the integration of Asia, Europe and Africa, will create unimaginable demand and opportunity.
The general path may be this: China will replace the US as a consumer country, export renminbi, technology and production capacity, reward resources countries with technology, and use these resources for China's urbanization. At the same time, the renminbi will be deposited abroad, and China will issue overseas renminbi bonds to recover the deposited offshore renminbi and establish a super fund to fund China's future deep urbanization.
In the new global division of labor system, all participating countries have gained benefits. Mutual benefit and win-win situations can naturally go on for a long time. This is a general trend that can flourish for many more years. The key point is that the renminbi must be internationalized. Of course, this is not an overnight effort, let us wait and see that day comes.

A piece of news from the US media caught the attention of the Chinese people: the White House is considering imposing travel restrictions on the Chinese Communist Party and its families. The reason why American hawkish politicians are able to conceive of such a policy not only reflects their arrogance towards China, but also their ignorance.
This is the current situation of the United States against China. I think that the American elite/upper middle class has a huge information asymmetry with their counterparts in China, that is, China understands the United States significantly more than the United States understands China. The United States simply does not know what it is facing, where does the competition come from and is totally blindfolded. Following this trend, the United States cannot compete with China.
The number of Chinese Communist Party members exceeds 90 million; plus direct family members, involving hundreds of millions of people. Not only that, these hundreds of millions of people include the backbone of all walks of life in China-not only in the government and military, but also in state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, institutions, academic institutions, and a large part of the Chinese elite.
There are 3 million Chinese visiting the United States every year. How many of them are Communist Party members and their families? I believe the US government knows nothing about it. What role does the Communist Party of China play in China's political system? What kind of ideology and behavior do they have? What is their relationship with society? Americans know nothing about it.
Two big countries are playing and competing. If you are completely ignorant of another country, how to play and compete with China?

I am not trying to ridicule the United States, and I am not even interested in the United States. However, we must all understand the true status of the United States in order to accurately assess future risks and prepare a response plan.
Everyone saw that the American "BonHomme Richard" amphibious assault ship suddenly caught fire and exploded, causing many casualties. Behind the frequent occurrence of US warship accidents is the decay of the US industrial system and national administrative system. Today, let’s take a closer look at how the collapse of the United States happened.
I want to repeat that this is not to ridicule the United States. We have to understand the true nature of the United States in order to research and judge where we stand today. So that we can minimize risk, take precautions, and prepare a response plan that is most beneficial. Since the overall collapse of the United States is irreversible from the perspective of the industrial system and talent reserve, it would be best for China to continue counterattack against defamation from the United States, hold the bottom line firmly and wait.

The International Monetary Fund has recently released forecasts on the economic growth of countries around the world this year and the next. This forecast has been significantly lowered compared to the data released in April. Among all major economies, only China will have growth of 1 to 2%.
Do you know what these numbers mean? It means that the future situation of most countries in the world will be very bad! Taking the United States as an example, the IMF's current economic growth data for the United States this year is -8%. As we all know, the economic development of all walks of life in any country is uneven. There is a high probability that some American industries will expand and some will have negative growth far below -8%, -20% or Even -30%! The wealth of the people at the top of the pyramid is still growing, and a large number of people at the bottom of society can no longer afford to eat.
The year 2020 is a very important watershed. In the past few decades, China has tried to integrate itself into the global economic system dominated by the United States. It was part of a machine that uses the United States as its engine.
But after 2020, the situation may begin to undergo fundamental changes. With a complete industrial system, the world's largest consumer market, and vibrant economic vitality, China has gradually built a global economic system that will pull in more countries with an equal and inclusive mentality. Whoever is willing to work to build a community of common human destiny, we can play together and make money together, and the snowball generally grows bigger. Those with racist discrimination or ideological prejudice, will be left in dust. A selfish, closed-door United States should not and will not be the leader of human civilization.
The old order will collapse, and the new system will grow rapidly. 2020 is the watershed between the old and the new!

Why America criticize China all the time? Whatever China does, it always draws American ire. When China locked down cities to stop the spread of COVID19, it was a violation of human rights. When western countries did the same, it was scientific.
They say China violates human rights and sends a million people in concentration camps, but no satellite images ever show the existence of any camp, let along one big enough to house one million people.
People often say that it is due to China’s choice of socialism. They believe that China is not on the right path, otherwise why do those Western countries never target others and always target China?
This question sounds reasonable, and people can't help thinking: "if a person is not popular everywhere, shouldn't he reflect his own problem?" This is true for people, but is it true for a country? In fact, this logic has a very serious trap. In a group of good people, bad people are often targeted. In a group of bad people, good people will be isolated and targeted. For example: in Gotham city, Batman is the one targeted by gangsters.
Being targeted does not mean you are wrong. Sometimes, being targeted just proves that you are doing it right.

Efficiency Revolution is the key to understanding the Direction of China Reform. We have discussed China’s economic history in 1949-2009 and 2009-2019 in two previous episodes. With knowledge from history, we can better understand where China’s economic reform is heading and how you can position yourself to profit from it.
In the short term, the source of China’s economic growth depends on industrial upgrading and structural efficiency improvement, as well as the removal of factor efficiency black holes, wealth distribution efficiency black holes, and capital efficiency black holes that reduce the public purchase power. In the longer run, the future of China's economy depends on the revolution of science and technology.
The industrial upgrading of China’s economy has not yet been completed. Through the import substitution strategy of mid- to high-end products, industrial upgrading will catalyze technological innovation, and technological innovation will lead to a new generation of technological revolution.
There are only three ways to do business between countries: rely on physical labour, using brain power and using financial power. China's economy has shifted from relying on physical labour to relying on the brain, but it has not yet reached the true level of prosperity. The next and final stage is financial power, that is the internationalization of the Chinese currency.

How China and USA are doing so far in 2020? It is always darkest before dawn. The first half of 2020 was full of unexpected events, especially the outbreak of COVID19. The competition between China and America is becoming more and more fierce. It is now the right time to assess the major events in the past six months and how it impacts the Sino-US competition.
To put it simply, in the near future, we will continue to witness unprecedented levels of destruction and anti-destruction, conspiracy and anti-conspiracy, deception and anti-deception, because the days of America are numbered.
The general trend is on China’s side, but there will be repeated back and forth. You should never underestimate the madness before America’s decline. It is hysterical and cannot be predicted with common sense and logic.
One of biggest problems now is that most people in the world have not seen through the weak nature of the US economy and are still illusory about its strength. It has a bubble economy and is a company pretending to be a country. Why should anyone be afraid of it?

Why do China and Pakistan love each other? Most people have never heard of the magical port of Gwadar in Pakistan. Surprisingly, it is a gateway for China to break strategic encirclement by the United States in the Malacca Strait and avoid India’s interference in the trade route of China.
Gwadar Port is a high-quality deep-water port, which is very suitable for building an international shipping transit station. Middle East oil coming out of the Persian Gulf can be docked directly at Gwadar port for unloading. All crude oil goes directly from the railway line and enters China by land transportation. By using Gwadar Port, China has completely avoided the shipping problem and avoided the risk of the major economic artery being cut off.
Another wonderful aspect of Gwadar Port, which is only one step away from Iran and connected by land. Iran, a country that is not only rich in oil, but also has a very bad relationship with the United States, has long been sanctioned by the United States and cannot sell oil.
Among the big powers, only China can be completely trusted by Pakistan, and only China will never sell Pakistan to India. Pakistan absolutely believes in China’s sincerity because India is also a threat to China, and China needs Pakistan to check and balance India.
For China, as long as India still exists, Pakistan cannot betray China. There will be no other big country in the world that attaches great importance to Pakistan's strategic position as China. Pakistan’s presence is very important to China, but not so important to other big countries.
As the British famously said, between countries, there are only eternal interests and no eternal friendship. But the world of geopolitics, China and Pakistan always have the same powerful interests. This powerful interest cannot be ignored no matter how the leaders change, since it involves the national security of both parties.
This is why China and Pakistan love each other and is what is commonly known as iron buddies. China is 100 % assured of Pakistan, unless India disappears.

In the past ten years, the Chinese economy no longer grows at double digits. China's economic difficulties are caused by external input. The fundamental reason is that globalization has experienced a structural crisis after the global financial crisis in 2008. The new economic environment was difficult for all countries. Fortunately, China has not followed the footsteps of the United States of printing money and high debt. We will discuss how China began to explore and is on a new and correct path of innovation driven economy.
The golden age of globalization with close cooperation between China and the United States was over in 2009, and the model of Chinese production and Western consumption are gone forever. The export-oriented economy is unsustainable, and the horse that had originally pulled the Chinese economy's carriage whistling forward was exhausted. If the horse, meaning export growth is gone, the power of the carriage is also gone. How can the carriage continue to move forward? This is the cause and root cause of a series of problems in the Chinese economy in the past ten years.
Will the reform and transformation of the Chinese economy succeed? Although the challenge is great, from the current situation, the economic hard landing has been controlled. This shows that the economy is moving in a safe direction, as long as the direction is correct, even if the speed is slower, it does not matter much.
Although the current path of China's economic reform is the coexistence of challenges and opportunities, structural adjustment, innovation-driven, technology and efficiency upgrades, these are the seeds and hopes sowed for the future.

Economic developments and innovations in the industrial age of China will bring major changes not seen in 5,000 years of human history. Particularly, 5G and blockchain technology will utterly reshape our society and become new engines of growth in China.
5G changes society and brings a wave of reshuffling;
quantum revolution + artificial intelligence brings a wave of reshuffling;
controlled nuclear fusion will be the ultimate reshuffle.
At present, blockchain technology is still in its infancy. The door of an ideal society is just opening a gap. Only a few people can see the wonders inside. Most people just see a glimmer of light and fear for change.
In the future, we are faced with a major change that has not been seen in 5000 years. The social class, wealth distribution, and industrial pattern will all change drastically. You must keep up with the times. These changes will happen in China first and create unimaginable wealth. I hope you could see this by now.

Make no mistake, we are now in world war 3. Few can declare victory in their war against the coronavirus. We will show you why China will be the big winner in this world war against covid19, by giving you a taste of how China contained the virus in a megacity of 30 million people back in March. The recent resurgence in the capital city of Beijing is another proof that the virus can be quickly suppressed in China and no major outbreak is possible anymore.
Some time ago, when the World Health Organization Director General was introduced to China's experience, his famous comment was: "I have never seen such a mobilization in my life! "
On January 23, the closure of Wuhan city, where the virus was first detected, was on the Chinese new year eve, and the entire society was on holiday. At that point, China was hit by a sudden epidemic! However, in such an extremely unfavorable situation, China quickly and extensively mobilized at an astonishing rate.
Within three days, all parts of the country immediately initiated the first-level response to major public health emergencies, and quickly cut off the traffic with the epidemic area; within a week, all regions began to comprehensively restrict the flow of cross-border personnel and start the production of key medical materials; within ten days, Wuhan has built two large hospitals with thousands of beds; within two weeks, from cities to rural areas, the country completed a comprehensive blockade and isolation of different regions, emergency supply chain works well, medical systems, police, grass-roots workers were full mobilized.
Without panic and riots, a large country with a population of 1.4 billion quickly changed to wartime mode in two weeks. How did China do it?

Humiliations of China motivated the development of Beidou Navigation Satellite System, especially during the 1990s, the decade of humiliation of China. The incident with the cargo ship “the Galaxy” in 1993, the Taiwan Strait military confrontation in 1996, and the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade in 1999 were called the three major humiliations.
The humiliations and technology blockade by the west forced China to be self-reliant. The completion of the Beidou navigation system took 26 years of hard work to build a better version of American global positioning system. It is an excellent example of Chinese technology.
In science and technology research and development, China opened its hearts to the world countless times, but in the end China understood that everything can only be done on its own. The blockade of the United States has repeatedly helped China's rapid growth of science and technology.

The real cause of repeated Sino-Indian confrontations is India’s insecurity caused by the geographic disadvantages against India and its ambitions to expand towards both east and west.
From a strategic point of view, the location of India without the Tibetean Plateau, is actually very embarrassing. The terrain of India is high in the north and south, low in the middle. The northern and northwestern regions of the high mountain bordering the Indian plain are the defensive choke points of India. If these gates are in the hands of the enemy, it is like a sword hanging over India’s head.
India has the dream of becoming a great power, and his heart will not settle down soon, so confrontation and conflicts with China will erupt in the future. As long as China adheres to the principles of maintaining territorial sovereignty and not characterizing India as an enemy, India will eventually accept the ideas advocated by China. China insists on political and diplomatic negotiations to resolve conflicts peacefully, effectively reducing India’s anxiety time and time again.
In the end, India is part of the Eurasian continent. Sooner or later, it will understand where its destiny lies.

We will show you how humility and willingness to learn enables China to overcome numerous obstacles and becomes the factory of the world.
China learnt from others the essence of the market economy, and the advantages of the planned economy. For every mistake experienced, China profoundly reflects on itself. The bottom line is the famous motto: “practice is the only standard for testing truth”. Every mistake can become nutrition.
Why are we so confident in the dispute between China and the West?
When China looks at the West, it is always humble and sees their advantages, and quickly integrates and absorbs their advantages. When the West looks at China, it is arrogant and can only see the negative aspects of China, mocking and ridiculing everything.
The west is full of arrogance and prejudice, but China is full of humility and willingness to learn. All of this determines the outcome of the dispute between China and the West, and we see no uncertainty.

Why China is growing so fast? Total factor productivity plus large population are the secret recipes of China economic transformation. Against pressure form the US, China slowly and surely upgraded its economy. We have now reached a new round of grand bargaining for the future of this decade.
In this video, we will discuss the unlikely scenario of military invasion of Taiwan. We are still of the view that war is unlikely to happen in the near future.
In this video, we will revisit the bloody history of America and its founding fathers. These crimes have caused too much suffering even to this day. This is also why China does not see America as a role model and rejects it's condescending criticisms.
In this episode, we will revisit the China India war in 1962. The purpose of this video is not to reopen historical wounds, but rather analyzing the events leading to the war to see what went wrong. Both countries have been peaceful neighbours for centuries and have every reason to be partners in these turbulent times.
