By the way, it's here: "

" . Here's my take. It's an enormous construction site and requires billions of dollars. So, these billions of dollars could have gone to more productive parts of economy, instead of building this unnecessary military headquarter. Is this gargantuan headquarter so vital? I don't think so. They should have diverted recourses to AI, quantum computing, chip production and satellite launch technology in which the Chinese fall behind the west. Alternatively , these funds could have helped to boost birthday at the least. I have got an impression that Ms Xi is obsessed with the Taiwan reunification, and he wants to achieve that by any means, including by sacrificing half of china 's GDP. Truly a sad story for everyone, except maybe Americans.

So why doesn't the west divert money away from NGAD into AI, quantum computing, chip production and satellite launch tech, since they (besides US in satellite launch) are falling behind China in all these sectors?

Why are they spending billions trying to develop things for Ukraine?

Because Mr Trump is obsessed with territorial aggression against China? China has the right and indeed must defend itself.
and he wants to achieve that by any means, including by sacrificing half of china 's GDP.
When it comes to defending Chinese homes, nobody minds giving up however much gdp, and you can count that if China needs to give up 50% gdp to military, the wannabe invaders will lose 95% of their gdp to bombs and airstrikes.
Truly a sad story for everyone, except maybe Americans.
You're just coping, increased militarization is good for peace in Asia and good for the world. It's a sad story only for chronic aggressors like US.

Massive command and control facilties help ensure that American (or other aggressor state) aggression can be denied, defeated and destroyed, no matter where it takes place. This is a win win for the world, China, and indeed even for Americans, who are yearning for a government that doesn't waste all their prosperity on aggression.

China has trillions to spend, billions is nothing.

It's called peace through strength. By investing enough in defense China makes another Hundred Years of Humiliation less likely.
great that you mentioned "It's called peace through strength" and "makes another Hundred Years of Humiliation less likely" . That implies you believe that building that headquarter contributes to chinese strength. And that's correct. But then a question rises: what contributes more to chinese strength, building military headquarter or domination in emerging techs? to me the answer is clear and it is not the headquarter. "Hundred Years of Humiliation" could come to the chinese if they fall behind in the emerging techs, especially AI and quantum computing. Reportedly, China poses around 550 intercontinental launchers; that means that "Hundred Years of Humiliation" wont come by military means. But "Hundred Years of Humiliation" may very well come if: 1) the west outpaces china in AI, which is the current situation. 2) the birthrate in china doesn't go up, which is the current situation. 3) The west outperforms china in quantum computing, which is currently the case. The chinese real strength lies in the economy and high tech, not in oversized military headquarters; you can't threaten or dethrone the USA with the military might because the USA has excessive military capabilities, such as ohio submarines. Apparently, tiny deepseek caused more tangible trouble for the USA than Russia's invasion of ukraine. All in all, if china really wants to become number one in the world, economy and high tech will work and not headquarters, missiles and a number of ships. If china continues unnecessary militarization, it will resemble USSR.

i didn't want to reply but you forced me to answer..

you said, China should have invest in Ai and Quantum and semi instead of Military.. my reply to you is, how long you have been living under the rock or you just purposely ignore the recent news. but i guess you know shit about China.

Ai industry - last week The Bank of China announced they will allocate 1 Trillion Yuan ($137.5 Billion) over the next five years to financially support Ai and related industries.

Quantum Tech - China public spending on Quantum tech is four times higher than the USA and China accounts for over half of the estimated global public investment in this industry.

Semiconductor - in May last year, China has set up the third phase of the Big Fund with a registered capital of 344 billion yuan.

the west outpaces china in AI, which is the current situation.
The west outperforms china in quantum computing, which is currently the case
as i said before, how long you have been living under the rock ?? i need an answer..

The west outperforms china in Ai and Quantum computing. who told you ???? it is actually CHINA who is competing with USA in both sector and going neck to neck. and Europe is basically non-existent in this critical industries..

China accounted for 37 per cent of quantum patent applications worldwide from 2003 to 2022, surpassing the US at just over 28 per cent. China have autonomous supply chain of quantum computing. we have just Unveils Record-breaking 504-qubit Superconducting Quantum Computer "Tianyan-504" equipped with the 504-qubit "Xiaohong" chip, marking a significant milestone in the field of quantum computing..

But then a question rises: what contributes more to chinese strength, building military headquarter
we have the largest construction industry on earth with unlimited supply of materials. it is peanuts for us to build this random building. just a cakewalk. so don't ever compare China's defense spending with Europe and USA. you barely know anything. its better for you to shut your mouth.
