Mike Pompeo: "The single rule is this: We don’t want American data in the hands of the Chinese Communist Party…It will end up in the hands of their MSS, their security apparatus, their military, their civil-military fusion programs."

Pompeo: "The transaction around TikTok, I’ve seen the outlines of it…This deal…will ensure that no American’s data has any access to anyone in China that has any capacity to move this to a place we don’t want it. We will ensure…that firewall is real."

Pompeo: "Whether there is still some Chinese ownership or they still collect a royalty check from the benefits of the business, there will be an American headquarters…controlled by Americans. And the data…will be in a place that we have confidence."

Pompeo: "I used to do oil deals all the time. I didn’t have any access to the company’s information. I just got a royalty check…That’s the situation, just a passive shareholder who collects money…No access to the company, no decision-making authority."

How the Trauma of the One-Child Policy Lingers in China—Beijing tends to brush off the impact of its policies, be it its Covid restrictions or the Great Leap Forward, urging citizens to look ahead. But the one-child policy is hard to shake off.
@QiLiyan
wsjchina.cmail20.com/t/d-e-skdlhly-…
@QiLiyan “For one thing, it accelerated the demographic bind China faces of now–dropping birthrates and a rapidly aging population. The policies to control the population have given way to new ones to strongly encourage births.”
wsjchina.cmail20.com/t/d-e-skdlhly-…
@QiLiyan “The one-child policy, abandoned in 2016, has left a hole in Chinese society: Millions of baby girls were never born and more than 150,000 Chinese children, mostly girls, were sent overseas for adoption. Beijing ended foreign adoptions last year.”

@raffaelehuang @lizalinwsj At a Malaysian data center, the engineers’ employer had rented about 300 servers containing advanced Nvidia chips. The engineers fed the data into the servers, planning to build the AI model and bring it back home.

“Although Xi has clearly consolidated his authority as China’s paramount leader, he now appears to be delegating key aspects of governance—particularly in economic policymaking—to his deputy, Premier Li Qiang.”
@neilthomas123 @ChinaFile
chinafile.com/reporting-opin…
@neilthomas123 @ChinaFile “Xi seems to be transitioning from hands-on control to a more oracular leadership style: preserving ultimate decision-making authority while entrusting more day-to-day policymaking to the loyalists.”
chinafile.com/reporting-opin…
@neilthomas123 @ChinaFile “Open-source data indicates that Li’s political stature is growing. Since becoming premier in March 2023…he has chaired more meetings, gained more powers, and enjoyed a higher public profile than his recent predecessors.”

Beijing Doesn’t Want America to See Its Trade-War Pain—Plunging trade has already led to job cuts; ‘it is very painful’
@Lingling_Wei @raffaelehuang
wsj.com/world/china/be…
wsj.com/world/china/be…
China has signaled that as a nation it is better able to tolerate the pain of a prolonged tariff war than the U.S. But cracks are starting to show, suggesting how deeply that pain is already setting in across its economy.
wsj.com/world/china/be…
Plunging trade is leading to production halts and threatening to undermine job stability for millions of Chinese. On Wednesday, China’s economy showed its first big signs of damage from the trade war, with a drop in export orders in April.
