"Industrial mother tools (ie complex machine tools like CNC machines) have been a focus of Chinese industrial policy for years: Currently domestically produced industrial machine tools have basically achieved independent production in the low-to-mid-end market. However objectively speaking the high-end market is still not our strong area. Ultimately compared with developed countries our experience is still insufficient"

"One of most interesting twists in the China decoupling story is the role of Chinese firms themselves in helping to move production to places like India and Vietnam. BYD Goertek Luxshare - Vietnam Wingtech Desay Sunny Optical - India While Apple has been able to move some of its production out of China what does it mean if this production is done by plants outside of China but still under Chinese ownership Table source:"

"One of the most challenging things about reading Chinese official documents is that you cant read them as standalone texts. Each text is full of phrases and lines that reference other texts forming a densely interconnected semantic network. Without catching the references youll end up missing a lot of the meaning. I generally try to refrain from making cultural connections back to ancient Chinese history but in this case its hard not to see this as part of a longer tradition in China. I remember having to memorize many years ago and learning that almost every phrase was a reference to some"
