Not saying they have to be in China if one has aspirations of going international. These days you're just basically guaranteed to fail. Yeah they thought they had a captured market for themselves in the US because of anti-Chinese attitudes. But you look Chinese to an American. It's just like Indians think they can be the next China but thought Americans won't see them as the same kind of potential threat that being the next China entails. Is it just like Vivek Ramaswamy thinking white MAGA wasn't going to see him as not white? You don't see China making videos depicting a future where white people are the beggars on the streets and servants to rich Indians. And I bet most Americans haven't even seen that video. That's why non-China Asia is feeling so insecure with Trump policies after they again thought they were the exception happy with him winning office. They want to believe it's all about nationality and not race because then they would have hope. They also think they're scoring points by not thinking it's all about race. Vietnam is still communist and Japanese and South Koreans are still not white. It was the Mongolians that started the yellow scare in Europe and it was the Japanese who made the West fear non-white industrial competition and militarization. Ironic up until now that nothing was started by China.
You have to wonder who is even more dumb? The redneck MAGA that would never buy a Vietnamese car or the "liberal" rich Americans thinking VinFast was going to be something big and invested? The battery is from CATL and they were leasing it to people who bought their cars. What made them think that was a winning formula? Because they were anti-China?
