China Explained

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.

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. More importantly, we will answer the million-dollar question: how can you, as an individual or a small business owner, also profit from the rise of China ?

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.

The inevitable rise of China may feel intimidating and some simply reject it. Don’t be. More importantly, we will answer the million-dollar question: how can you, as an individual or a small business owner, also profit from the rise of China ?

Four characteristics of Chinese

Diligence versus laziness,
Responsibility versus numbness, 
Resistance versus cowardice, 
Humility versus arrogance and prejudice, 

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.
