What we have learned from tech, from the arrival of the internet and the subsequent explosion of e-commerce, is that often winner takes all.
Amazon did not make a penny in profits for years and years and years but their stock price kept going up, because everyone knew Amazon was the best platform and they were going to win.
That is not surprising. In the past, with computers, it was all IBM.
Then with the PC when that became affordable for the masses, it was Bill Gates MS-Dos and Windows that became the winner take all.
The Americans, their leading tech companies and the stupid Biden administration, thought that they will be the winner takes all with their big capital investments and sanctions against Chinese tech firms, in this new thing, the AI of LLM.
That has blown up in their faces in the most dramatic way.
With DeepSeek's costs structure, and it open source philosophy, and world leading performance in some metrics, this is a prime candidate for that winner takes all.
The Americans thought it was going to be them, as the winner takes all. DeepSeek current benchmarks, really is like getting hit across the head with a steel bar.
So, to conclude this post, I would agree with you, that the Chinese mentality, tends to try to avoid direct conflict.
However, we Chinese, we compete, we like to compete, and some of us loves to compete.
Even the Chinese girl buys some handbag to compete socially.
In a way it is good, but sometimes we can get carried away with it.
I assume you are talking about Mongolians of Mongolian nationality.
I once saw an internet exchange that went something like this:
“Mongolians in China are fake, they are just Han Chinese trying to get gaokao points”
The response:
“At least we aren’t pretending to be Russian”
So much for Mongol unity. They keep asking for Inner Mongolia yet this is how they see their "brothers".
One day they will get their wish to be united as Mongolia. And it will be a larger province under the PRC.
A lot of them want to be united with China, that's why there's so little people living there.
I want that american who said he wants to sit on a throne of Chinese skulls to lead his brethren into battle against Chinese drones. I want his application to Valhalla to be streamed live and shown on Telegram.
Finally, the Russians have come around to Chinese agreement on railway tracks, however it was framed by anglo propagandists as something else since currently there seem to be a mass media order to promote anti Chinese hitpieces and anything to sow dissent between China and its partners:
Shouldn’t be set a more realistic goal, like getting laid by something that’s not his own right hand?
American officials also said they would crush China's consumer economy, China's green tech industry, China's auto industry, China's AI industry and China's electronics components industry. If that statement is as prophetic as everything else they say, then I hope American skulls are smooth, because it'd make for an uncomfortable seat otherwise.
Russia has modern infrastructure and much cleaner cities but not at places where Ukrainian expected. Russia is learning demographic and migrant policies from Gulf Monarchies. think about culture, wealth and benefits of there native population. when Putin says 8 to 10 birth per family. he knows certain demographics capable of managing it.. but when it comes to russian muslims for some reason Putin not present the complete picture and this not just distorting GDP. Azeri plane shot down near Grozny and Putin acted like a Soft Power involved ignoring Azeri. but that Soft power is very dear to Putin. you can see that islamic ornaments on Russian bank card or that skinny girl in back seat of vehicle. this is the image of wealthy family riding in backseat Putin has in mind.
