The US military stands no chance against the PLA in a war over Taiwan.
If the US govt can't even mobilize against a forest fire in the very heart of their empire, what makes you think that they can mobilize against the PLA in Taiwan on the other side of the Pacific Ocean? Image
In China, every natural disaster is met with an immediate and robust response.
The PLA mobilized 7,800 soldiers for the relief of the Tibet earthquake within the first 10 hours.
This is for a town that's in the middle of nowhere with barely a single road. Image
Even before nightfall on the same day, the tents were already up, food was already being served, and thousands of rescue workers were on site. Image

China makes more Chips than the rest of the world when it comes to any Chip that is 45 nm Or larger.
Automatic Garage Doors, Lawnmowers, Refrigerators, Washing Machines, Basic Guided Missiles, Automatic Sprinklers, Electronic Display Counters, Counting Machines... Chips ≠ 3 nm Image
Chips between 3–14 nm are used in less than 10% Applications globally albeit very important applications that make a truckload of profits. Image
Almost 90% Applications in the world use Larger Chips that are almost exclusively made in China & use entirely indigenous Chinese processes or machinery. Image

Since 2016, Chinese firms have more than doubled their foreign sales, and much of that growth is happening in the Global South.
Chinese companies are making significant investments through "greenfield FDI," building brand-new factories and facilities from scratch. Image
Professor John Mearsheimer once remarked, "We foolishly pushed the Russians into the arms of the Chinese."
Now, as Trump threatens tariffs on Chinese products, the US risks pushing China even closer to these Global South emerging markets. Image
If you've heard of China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), you know it's a massive undertaking.
Over the last decade, China has invested more than $1 trillion in infrastructure - roads, railways, and power networks - across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Image

In China, if you want to express your approval of what someone says, please don't use this Emoji - 🙂, it often implies boredom, sarcasm, or passive-aggressiveness.
You can use 😂, or 😁.
(Comes from today's experience of communicating with a foreign colleague of mine.)
BTW in Chinese internet slang, 666 is shorthand for "awesome" or "great job" - NOT a reference to something evil.
It comes from "溜溜溜" (liù liù liù), which sounds like "666" and means "smooth" or "cool." Image
The Emoji shows a person eating watermelon turns out the watermelon is a visual pun in Chinese.
"melon" (瓜, guā) sounds similar to "gossip" (八卦, bāguà) - "just here for the drama" - no judgment, just happily spectating the unfolding chaos👉Michael Jackson eating popcorn meme. Image

US automotive design expert: Harvard and McKinsey told me to go to China, so I did, and now they're calling me a traitor? No one even listens to my classes in the US, but in China, I have 2,500 people in one class who are eager to hear what I have to say.

"Many people have been kidnapped by populism and politicians. Free competition is the most beneficial to consumers and industry. The States has our advantages, and China has their own advantages... in order to win votes, they start to shape an enemy that does not exist"

"Tariffs and propaganda can only hide us from reality so long. American, Japanese and European car and energy companies can be protected but will lose their export markets and then go bust anyway if they lock into the past."
