Chinese has always had a new year and a new atmosphere, and people always have some good expectations for the new year. But Americans on the other side of the ocean do not have such cultural traditions, and many American politicians only have anti-China left in their minds, seizing every opportunity to create trouble for China. According to media reports, on February 7, local time, the Biden administration put 33 Chinese entities on the so-called "unverified list" and imposed new restrictions on the import of goods from the United States by these entities.
China's Spring Festival holiday has just ended, and the United States is about to go to war. According to the interpretation of industry insiders, the so-called "unverified list" this time is very different from the familiar "entity list" or "blacklist", which mainly requires US exporters to verify the import behavior of Chinese enterprises, and the entities included in the list can also remove themselves from the list by agreeing to verify and confirm the legality of the business.
However, this time, the Chinese company listed on the list, WuXi Biologics, responded directly and publicly, saying that the list had no impact on the company, because they had already built production capacity in Shanghai and Wuxi and did not need to buy new products from the United States. At the same time, they have established a global supply chain, which means that their dependence on the United States has been greatly reduced. This answer is enough to relieve the anger.
After the Biden administration took office, some business and non-governmental people once had some illusions about it, believing that Biden, who has taken office as a new official, may choose to ease tensions between China and the United States. After the China-US heads of state meeting, this illusion reached its peak, but the facts were diametrically opposed to the expected results. Biden, as a typical Democratic establishment, is no less interested in various protectionist measures than Trump.
The last US President Trump's vigorous trade protection can be said to be an alternative in the Republican Party; but Biden's trade protection is the "duty" of the Democratic Party. So you can see that in the past year, the US government under biden has completely inherited Trump's sanctions against China, and even intensified, without the slightest intention of easing relations with China.
In this context, many business people have gradually realized that the decoupling between China and the United States may seem inevitable. And we shouldn't have any illusions about the U.S. government, because america's crazy behavior will not end once it starts. Instead of pinning the hope of détente on a few American politicians, it is better to focus this energy on cultivating internal skills.
One of the fundamental reasons why WuXi Biologics, which was "pulled on the list" this time, can cope so calmly is that their dependence on the United States has been greatly reduced, and they can almost withstand the adverse effects of the decoupling between China and the United States, which can be said to be a good example for the industry to learn. You know, the United States chose to launch a protracted "trade war" against China because they believe that China cannot do without the United States.
Therefore, when they felt that it was difficult to curb the mainland's development through conventional means, they wanted to use the above-mentioned means to deal a fatal blow to the mainland. Objectively speaking, China has indeed made rapid progress in the field of science and technology in recent decades, but there are still many deficiencies in the high-tech field, such as many advanced parts and components need to be imported from the United States, which is one of the reasons why the United States vigorously sanctions Chinese enterprises.
However, this is also the last card that the United States can play, and if this card does not work again, then the United States may only have the two ways of shaking hands with China and making peace or going to war. In the past, many companies in our country did not pay enough attention to scientific and technological research and development, and all kinds of public knowledge and compradors continued to spread the idea of "building is better than buying, buying is better than renting" in the media to demagogue people's minds, so when the "trade war" broke out, many domestic companies were caught off guard, and it did cause a lot of trouble in the short term.
But the competition initiated by the United States is also an excellent crisis education for all walks of life in China. It proves with facts that it still needs to be hard to strike iron, and China's affairs, in the final analysis, still depend on themselves. As things stand, economic tensions between China and the United States will not ease in the short term, and while a complete decoupling between China and the United States is unlikely, U.S. censorship of Chinese companies will persist for a long time.
No matter who becomes the president of the United States, the overall US China policy will not change much. So the more this situation is, the more we have to develop ourselves and enrich our wings. While it is true that many chinese companies are transitioning to technology-driven companies in a short period of time, this step must be taken in the long run. Under the siege and blockade of the United States, China's scientific and technological progress may be slightly slow, but there will eventually be a day when the willows will be dark and bright. Americans are crazy now because they know that many of China's high-tech industries still rely on them.
But being inseparable now does not mean that it will always be inseparable. While Americans are experiencing the so-called superiority of the democratic system in the vicious struggle between democracy and republicanism, researchers on the Chinese side are quickly stepping up their own strength. We do not deny the pioneering role of Western countries in the development of human science and technology, but the United States is no longer the United States of the past. This belligerent imperialist country is depleting itself step by step and degenerating, and China, which is full of energy, will eventually shine in the world.
