With the continuous antagonistic and confrontational behavior that Washington DC is exhibiting against China, not even the pandas gifted to the US by China in 2003 are spared...
When you thought that the Wanwanese frog "president" is totally unemphatic about the death of Tuan Tuan just weeks ago is bad enough, their bootlicking master is way worse.

Football is probably the most competitive sport there is. There are lots of countries where children growing up will have one goal, which is to become a footballer. There are lots of countries that are football mad but perform poorly on the international stage.
Most Olympic sports on the other hand have low rates of participation, and as equipment/facilities access is limited for many people it's much easier to improve your performance at the Olympics by just throwing money at it.
My solution to the Chinese national team is to send @ansy1968 to as many African countries as possible. In 20 years many half Chinese African will be eligible for the Chinese national team....

People usually confuse stock performance which in a bull bubble market could be overvalue with real performance.
Seeing a lot of World cup discussion on here. I feel like it's false choice. China's priority is to develop tech, economy, military, improving the lives of her people etc etc., and will always be. Doesn't mean they can't develop a good National football team. I guess we can forget all about China's investment into both Winter and Summer Olympics then. Others already argued it's not mutually exclusive, good for physical activity and so on.
I don't think China will ever turn the sport into a religious like following on a national scale like what some Latin American countries have, and the govt will crack down on it if it ever gets close to that. Yes the mass media broadcast of the sport could be seen as a form of bread and circus, but it's not like China is banning the current world cup from broadcasting. Honestly people need their "bread and circus" to break their life routine sometimes.

Remember the time the Zuck tried to create his own global reserve currency called Libre?
That is just depressing -
Absolutely stark contrast to how the species is thriving under China's care -

The funniest thing is the US spending so much effort to secure TSMC, when China is most likely going to leap frog them in 10 years.
