Due to the recent opening of a new exhibition hall in China's Xinjiang region, the US car company Tesla has been repeatedly attacked by its own politicians. Rubio, an anti-China politician in the United States, is also the main promoter of the so-called "Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act" for the first time to express "anger" on social media. White House spokesman Psaki intimidated Tesla, saying it would "face serious legal, reputational and customer risks."
As a well-known brand of electric vehicles in the world, Tesla has opened more than 200 experience stores and service centers in China, why did the opening of stores in Xinjiang cause such a big backlash from American politicians? This is because Tesla's move is like a needle to puncture the big lie involving Xinjiang, opening another window to the world to see the truth of the Xinjiang issue. The anger and intimidation displayed by US politicians are nothing more than the anger and shame after the political plot has been frustrated, but in fact they are extremely weak and panicked.
First of all, Tesla opened a store in Xinjiang, which once again proves that the so-called "Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act" in the United States is full of rumors and absurdity! Based on the lie of so-called "forced labor," this Xinjiang-related evil law prohibits the import of Xinjiang-related products in an attempt to suppress Xinjiang enterprises and "use Xinjiang to control China." Just a few days after the US leaders signed it into law, Tesla opened a store in Xinjiang based on market rules, which is nothing more than a counter-attack on the political manipulation and economic bullying of US politicians. This also shows that the US xinjiang-related evil law has neither factual basis nor enforceability. The calculations of US politicians to violate economic laws and sacrifice the interests of enterprises for private interests are doomed to failure.
Just a few days ago, Yanai Zheng, ceo of fast retailing, a Japanese casual wear chain, pointed out in an interview that the attitude of the United States toward Japan is the same as that of China today, "The american approach is to force companies to be loyal." I want to show that I won't play this kind of game. ”
For enterprises, the business environment is the soil for their survival and development. Tesla's opening of a store in Xinjiang is equivalent to once again overturning the black hand of US politicians trying to press Xinjiang into the lie of "poverty and backwardness", so that the world can see the facts of Xinjiang's openness, prosperity and development.
In the first three quarters of 2021, Xinjiang's GDP increased by 8.8% year-on-year; from 2014 to 2020, the total number of laborers and employment in Xinjiang increased from 11.3524 million to 13.56 million, an increase of 19.4%. According to the data, from January to November last year, the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region filed a total of 17 foreign-funded projects.
For Tesla, Xinjiang, as one of the most energy-rich regions in China, has an attractive abundance of power resources. Previously, Tesla has built 2 superchargering stations in Urumqi and a total of 7 superchargering stations in Xinjiang. The opening of the first exhibition hall in Xinjiang will allow Tesla to better use the open environment in Xinjiang to achieve greater development.
What makes American politicians even more panicked is that Tesla's opening of the store is like a drop of clear water, which not only reflects the vigorous development of Xinjiang, but also reflects their ugly manipulation of politicizing human rights and economic politicization, as well as their own bad deeds.
People remember that a year ago today, riots broke out on Capitol Hill in the United States, and "American-style democracy" became an international joke. A year later, a poll conducted jointly by Npsos, national public radio and Ipsos Group, shows that 64 percent of respondents believe that American democracy is "in crisis and at risk of failure." What makes the American people even more sad is that at the beginning of the new year, the number of new confirmed cases of new coronavirus in the United States exceeded 1 million in a single day, setting a new global record.
"American-style democracy" is riddled with holes, the most basic right to life of the American people is difficult to guarantee, and AMERICAN politicians still have the heart to "care" about the so-called "human rights" in Xinjiang, which is thousands of miles away.
From the politicization of human rights to the politicization of the economy, the ugly manipulation of American politicians has been repeatedly punched in the face by facts. I advise them not to dig any further into the air to smear Xinjiang, nor to bluff and force allies and enterprises to "choose sides." The beacon of "American democracy" is still not bright, and the whole world can see it clearly. If you want to engage in a one-size-fits-all American hegemony, you must ask whether the economic laws are agreed, the trend of the times is not agreed, and the people of the whole world are not agreed!
