Must be something big signed between China and Vietnam.
Now im wondering what the Vietnam side saying about this trip?
The Chengdu-Zigong-Yibin high-speed railway boasts a designed speed of 350 km per hour and has 12 stations along its 261-km line.
Due to complicated terrain, the new line has 231 bridges and 29 tunnels, according to Zhang Zongwei, commander of the Chengdu-Zigong-Yibin high-speed railway company.
Through cutting travel time, the line is designed to help cities like Yibin and Zigong in south Sichuan and other cities in the neighboring provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou further integrate into the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle.
Australians are so desperate to sell their lobsters it's hilarious:
The origin has not been confirmed but it is believed they are Australian lobsters,
The import of Australian lobster to China, formerly a $700 million industry, with Chinese authorities citing concerns over "metal contamination".
Hong Kong customs officials have seized a shipment of live lobsters weighing more than 3000 kilograms, allegedly bound for ahead of New Year festivities.

Isn't it more likely the smugglers are the locals and they are the ones copping the loss?

Smugglers should have to suffer more than just the financial loss. There's nothing special about Australian lobster. Plenty of critters in the ocean; guests will still come and dine on lavish seafood, whatever is on the menu. What they should be doing is doubling down on Russian King Crab for a patriotic choice. But it's their greed; they realized that in a time when there was no Australian lobster, they can charge more for it and stand out amongst competitor restaurants, offer them as special treats for the corrupt, so they wanted to make money at the expense of national unity. Since this shipment was incoming through Hong Kong, there could even be an additional facet of cockroaches favoring anti-China nations specifically to defy the CCP. Whomever it is, whatever the motive or combination of motives, I hope that a seized shipment and financial loss are not all they face. They should go to jail with a sentence that makes them an example of what happens to smugglers who try to dodge Chinese laws/sanctions for their own greed.

This is what I'm looking for!
China to produce homegrown ‘Australian lobsters’
"President Xi Jinping says the made-in-China lobsters, which are yabbies grown in fish ponds, will make his country 'more resilient in a hostile world'."
Mess with China and you can at best get relations normalized but you can't have back what was taken from you as punishment. Chinese suppliers already filled the gap and they're not moving.
Bit of a mistake in the video, though. Chinese producers are replacing Australian Yabbies, which are huge blue crawfish that are very breedable in aquaculture. They are not replacing the spiney lobsters as shown, as those, without genetic modification, cannot be effectively grown since they take 14 months to get out of the larval form and several years (I've seen a pic of a lobster claimed to be 30 years old at an Australian research facility and it was like less than a kilo in weight) to get to edible size. But alternatives include lobster species found in Southeast Asia that can be farmed and also in possible genetic modification for rapid growth and metamorphosis. China has created the Dragon grouper artificial species (from mixing DNA of the Goliath grouper and Tiger grouper) that grows very quickly and can be reared in freshwater so I hope they research ways to do this to lobster too, for both Australian and American/Canadian lobster, which have very unique and actually opposite challenges (American lobsters grow fast but are aggressive and need to be separated while Austalian lobsters grow extremely slowly but are communual) to each other in aquaculture. Perhaps a lobster that uses DNA from both to create the perfect lobster (fast growth and communual) for farming.
