China and the United States have decided to completely tear their faces this time, and the United States is really a bit "crazy" in order to curb the mainland's new energy trams, and the sudden imposition of such a large tariff is a sign that it wants to work against China.
Bullying people is also bullying too thoroughly, have you forgotten that Tesla is still preparing to open the Chinese market? If you are unkind, you can't blame us for being unjust, a move by China has completely shattered Tesla's illusion that it wants to make a profit in China.
Why did the United States begin to curb our tram industry? How did China fight back?
All of the statements in this article are based on reliable sources and are reproduced at the end of this article
The United States has completely torn its face with China
China and the United States have been competing in the open and secretly, what technical level is calm on the surface, in fact, the undercurrent is surging, today I want to talk about the new energy electric vehicle market, today's international stage, can push the new energy electric vehicle to the world is only China and the United States.
It has become a thing of the past for the United States to monopolize global business by relying on the Tesla brand, you must know that China has really been crawling on the road forward for a long time, and LeTV's boss Jia Yueting has also tried to wrestle with Tesla, but he has been in the United States for many years and there is still no improvement.
Even on May 7, he posted an article saying "In order to save FF, I made a few decisions", ten years of hard work finally failed to do Tesla, and even in the United States electric vehicle industry has no right to speak, fortunately, BYD in China is very competitive, and now it is also well-known in foreign countries, and the annual sales are even more rubbing upward.
When the Xiaomi car su7 came out, it set off a wave of craze on the Internet, the mainland's domestic brands are so popular, the United States sees us as a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, could have eaten a pot of porridge by themselves, and now there is a second spoon in the pot, how can the United States swallow it?
Since the technical level can't be compared, then the United States can only use some means to restrict mainland products, so they directly use the bill to impose a bunch of cumbersome restrictions on mainland electric vehicles, and I will translate the specific content into simple and easy-to-understand words.
Roughly this means that as long as there are any parts in your electric car that are not from your own country, or are not assembled in your own country, then it is not tax-free, and how high is this tax, up to $7,500.
It seems to increase the export cost of Chinese products, but in fact, the domestic automobile manufacturing in the United States is not easy, because this restriction is two-sided, and the local manufacturers in the United States do not use all the parts made in the United States, and the SLR uses even a little bit, and cannot enjoy the $7,500 tax exemption.
You think that's the end of it? The United States will not let go of any opportunity to suppress China, one clause did not have a lethal effect, they took out another clause, that is, to increase tariffs, in the face of China's exports of new energy-related products, the United States opened its mouth and directly raised the price fourfold.
I can only say that the United States is really "making trouble" and doing things completely recklessly, and this time the act of raising tariffs is no different from tearing the skin, and the price of four times is not only that we think it is excessive, but even some economists in the United States feel that it is too much.
Tesla is the biggest victim
The United States has repeatedly blocked the import and export of new energy in the mainland, in fact, the most uncomfortable should be the Tesla brand, why do you say this, because the mainland's new energy vehicles have a clear positioning, that is, to put the vision in the world, and Tesla is different.
Tesla actually relies on China in many aspects, whether it is sales channels or parts used in cars to a certain extent, it is inseparable from the mainland, the mainland has a population of 1.4 billion, once the market is opened, it is very profitable, as Tesla's boss Musk also understands this truth.
That's why he visited China twice this year, just to completely open up the Chinese market, but he didn't expect that his next plan had not yet been made, the "main artery" was cut first, and it was no one else who wielded the knife, it was his own "boss", and the behavior of the United States not only angered the mainland, but also made Tesla pay the price.
As a world power, the mainland has a strong inclusiveness, even if Tesla wants to open the mainland market, we still uphold the attitude of survival of the fittest, instead of targeting and pressuring from all angles like the United States, and the most disgusting thing is that our goodwill is regarded as a good bully by the United States.
They even made extreme remarks, secretly poking and poking that the United States will carry out the next step of restrictions on China's new energy vehicles, so that our products will completely disappear in the United States, for the provocative attitude of the United States, we will never sit still, too good temper will always make some people get carried away.
China Daily published an article saying that Musk went to China to express his hope that Tesla's full self-driving technology will be implemented in China, but our attitude is: it has not been fully approved for the time being. This sentence has already expressed our meaning, we can not rely on the US market, but you the United States try not to enter the Chinese market.
We don't lose much, and you have to pay the price of blood, if China will continue to maintain this attitude, then it can be said that Musk's years of efforts have been in vain, we can guess Musk's current mentality, according to Tesla's official data, sales in April fell by three percent compared with March, and it is impossible to say that Musk is not in a hurry.
In contrast, the mainland's new energy vehicle sales are much better, whether it is BYD or Xiaomi su7 is showing an upward trend, the United States really doesn't understand what it means to win and benefit each other, every day only thinking about playing small means, and finally have to play yourself into it to know regret.
Is it really reliable to only look at the interests of one side?
If a big brand like Tesla falls, the US official will definitely be unbearable, and now the biggest headache for them is to think about how to make Tesla's sales plummet again, so that the United States can have hope for new energy electric vehicles, and continue to put pressure on China, in exchange for the unilateral failure of the United States.
This kind of behavior of the United States, which does not understand the situation, is indeed a bit funny; in the face of strong pressure, China has always used hard means, and the United States has suffered losses of 800 and self-losses of 1,000 tricks, and the United States still does not have a long memory of such losses, and sure enough, when it is afraid of a powerful enemy, it will faint for a while.
When China began to slowly show its strength, the United States began to fear, decades of rapid development made the United States scramble, crushing the lead in various fields, and now it is slowly catching up, and even gradually began to overtake, the front is just right, and the United States is unwilling to bow its head and admit defeat, so it can only choose to "play three indiscriminately".
The United States has begun its usual trick, using public opinion to stink China, and using its international status to give China small shoes everywhere and come up with targeted clauses to restrict China's development, but these problems will no longer be a problem, because we have already given our own attitude, and the United States dares to restrain its arrogance.
