Preface
In recent years, the United States has successively promulgated several decrees over the years, imposing strict restrictions on the mainland in various aspects, in an attempt to get rid of the mainland.
Some American experts have even suggested that since we can't get rid of China, then we should replicate one China and defeat it in China's way. As a result, under the impetus of the United States, two replicas of China "stood" in the world.
So, how exactly did the United States replicate China? Did this frenzied approach succeed in the end?
Replica "China"
Speaking of which, let's first take a look at the "executors" of the American Fork Project.
The first thing the United States looked at was Vietnam. In fact, Vietnam was still an "ideal country" with a full degree of "angry youth" at the beginning.
In the 80s of the 20 th century, seeing the tremendous achievements made by the mainland in carrying out economic reform, they also began to follow the mainland's example in carrying out economic reform, but because their own economy was too backward, the pace of reform was very slow.
Coincidentally, at this time, the United States began to recruit candidates for its own replication plan, which Vietnam saw that this was not a great thing, so it immediately refused to accept the application, and the two sides hit it off and began to imitate China.
After the cooperation between the two sides, the push of the United States is still quite effective, and the trade surplus in one quarter alone has reached 2.5 billion US dollars, which can make Vietnam very happy, and it has closely followed this big brother in terms of policy and economy, and does not dare to slack off at all.
However, the United States does not attach as much importance to Vietnam as it imagined, but is more optimistic about another "top student" - India.
European and American countries once regarded the rise of the mainland as a productive force provided by a large number of cheap labor, so in order to more perfectly implement the replication of China's plan, India, which is the world's most populous country with the mainland, has stepped into the eyes of the United States.
Seeing the wave of the United States, India's Asanyi bluntly said that the opportunity for his rise had come, and he didn't need to fool the United States, so he jumped directly into the trap of the United States with a wave of his big hand.
After satisfying itself in selecting candidates, the United States began to start its own plan, which was to provide arms services militarily and to relocate a large number of local enterprises to the local area for development.
Even many European and American countries have responded to the call of the United States, hyping up the development of India into the world's manufacturing core. Soon, the economies of India and Vietnam improved dramatically, much to the delight of the United States and his two faithful younger brothers.
India's GDP has also risen to the fifth place in the world with the help of the United States, and some institutions even predict that India's GDP will eventually surpass Germany and Japan to become the third place in the world after China.
So, what is it that makes the United States so willing to aid Vietnam and India?
Reasons for the emergence of complex situations
Speaking of which, we have to bring up a topic that we are familiar with - the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.
After the end of World War II, as the main battlefield of World War II, the economies of European countries were severely hit, and some countries were even on the verge of bankruptcy.
On the contrary, as the last country to enter the war, the United States not only suffered very little losses, but also looted a lot of benefits after the war, becoming the country that benefited the most in World War II in one fell swoop, and since then has established its status as a world hegemon.
Faced with the situation of extreme damage to European countries, the United States could not help but play its own small calculations, so the Marshall Plan, which was nominally providing economic assistance to European countries, but in fact controlled European countries, was promulgated.
The Soviet Union, as the victor of World War II and the big brother of Europe, could not sit still, seeing that its former younger brothers had switched to the United States, its position was not guaranteed, and at the same time, its economy would eventually be dragged down in the long run.
This fighting nation, which is not willing to degenerate, has launched its own powerful counterattack, advancing frantically in industry and starting an arms race with the United States militarily. For a time, the world began a Cold War pattern led by the United States and the Soviet Union.
After all, the Soviet Union has been the big brother in Europe for many years, and its own heritage is still very strong. The United States began to be afraid of the Soviet Union's "offensive" and had no choice but to support a powerful opponent to share the Soviet Union's "artillery fire."
As a result, the mainland, which has a great reputation in the world, was targeted by the United States. At that time, the United States, in disregard of the history of its defeat in the Korean War, actively carried out exchanges with the mainland in many aspects, helping the mainland to continue to expand its reputation in the international community.
At the end of the last century, the Soviet Union was forced to disintegrate due to internal and external troubles, and the property of the Soviet Union was divided into several parts, and the newly established Russia was unable to compete with the United States for power in order to deal with the mess left by the Soviet Union.
The ambitions of the United States do not stop there, and the spearhead of the struggle has turned to the continent, which is now developing rapidly.
In recent years, a series of news such as the "Sino-US trade war" and "the US chip restriction on China" are all measures made by the United States to prevent the economic development of the mainland.
However, the Chinese nation's spirit of self-improvement has always supported the mainland's continuous progress, and the United States has suffered an unprecedented sense of crisis. Friends who are familiar with the United States should know that the United States will not give up.
Thus, the plan to reproduce China began.
So, will the U.S. revival project succeed?
America's illusions are far away
The United States thinks too much about the mainland, believing that it can complete the replication of the mainland in terms of labor alone, but it ignores the dependence of Vietnam and India on the mainland.
Vietnam and the mainland are bordering side by side, with the Red River running directly through the mainland's Yunnan province and Vietnam.
Hydropower plants in Yunnan Province account for most of Vietnam's domestic electricity consumption. In addition, Vietnam's topography also dooms the raw materials needed for its industrial manufacturing to be imported from the mainland.
Therefore, the mainland has an open attitude towards Vietnam's economic development, and it is not too much to say that Vietnam's development indirectly promotes the mainland's development.
Next, it will be even more difficult for India to replicate the continent.
Although India's population size is very similar to that of the mainland, and it has a huge labor base, the demographic dividend alone cannot meet the needs of industrial manufacturing.
Like Vietnam, India not only imports most of its raw materials from the mainland, but also has a scarcity of energy itself, with most of its energy being imported from abroad.
Moreover, India seems to have forgotten to imitate the industrialization process carried out by the mainland for many years, and when India's industrialization path was still being carried out, it was approached by the United States.
Underneath the beautiful picture described by the United States, India has made a striking decision to skip industrialization and go straight to manufacturing with U.S. assistance.
The consequence of such a Great Leap Forward is that it has directly led to a great fault in India's industrial process, that is, the good is too good, and the bad is so bad that there is no boundary, and you can imagine how difficult it is for India to successfully imitate the mainland.
There is one of the most serious problems, everyone should also know that India, as a country with a long history, has not been properly resolved in the conflict between India and Pakistan so far.
Secondly, the United States, as the initiator behind the Russia-Ukraine conflict, is in a situation of disregard for these two loyal little brothers under the huge containment of the Russian-Ukrainian war.
Such an act directly made Vietnam and India dumbfounded, and such a beautiful fantasy in the past can now only be a distant fantasy.
So, didn't the United States think about these things when it made plans for the reproduction?
The essence of the American plan
In fact, it is not difficult to see that the replica plan formulated by the United States has many similarities with the Marshall Plan formulated in Europe in that year, both of which use economic means to support national and regional economies.
After the rapid economic development of countries and regions, these countries will form an extreme sense of dependence on the United States, so as to provide support for the United States in the world.
For example, the American superhero movies that everyone sees. Whenever people are in danger, superheroes step up to save the world.
And the people will not use their own strength to resist the next time they continue to be in danger, but will always hope that this superhero will appear soon. The ultimate goal of the Marshall Plan and the Rev Project was to turn America into a superhero to save the world.
However, judging from the various time stages, the behavior of the United States is nothing more than a shield for itself.
In the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the European countries that benefited from the Marshall Plan blocked most of the attention of the Soviet Union for the United States, and a large part of the reason for the collapse of the Soviet Union was not because of American competition, but because of the divisive forces within the European continent.
In the replication plan, the United States is well aware that all previous methods against China will inevitably be met with the same counterattack from China, and in order to neutralize most of the forces, Vietnam and India will naturally become shields.
After the success of the incident, the United States continued to carry out its "hegemon" plan in the world, constantly unfolding various means behind the scenes, triggering a hot war and a cold war in the world, and ensuring the stability of its own position.
However, the countries and regions that were affected by the previous plan were ruthlessly abandoned by the United States and became cannon fodder for the United States.
epilogue
The U.S. replication plan will not succeed in any case, and the development of the mainland is the result of the efforts of several generations of Chinese, and it cannot be completed by looking for countries with the same structure or close regions.
Justice will triumph in the end, and the idea of US hegemony will not be realized!
