Too little and too late, beside the US was never that much of important in bringing any valuable expertise and skills to China.

No, this is about cutting of global dollar-based funding to Chinese startups and it is serious. Most if not all of the biggest private equity funds in the world are based in US, afew in Europe and UK. They manage(more like monopolies) capital from the wealthy families all over the world(through private banks), and since the funds are based in US, the managers have to adhere with US gov laws. These funds have with them a focus bias ; 80% will be funneled into supporting US-based startups. Such new "scrunitize" will mean global funding will no longer go towards funding any strategic Chinese sectors.

Don't get me started. Just last month I got the opportunity to invest in one of the biggest funding round in 2023, with bright prospect and the only few with rising valuation this year. The presentation session took me by surprise : it is Anduril, a US startup making autonomous killing systems, drones, sensors and loitering ammunition. Their deck is BAM defending democracy, how to contain China :

screenshot below to give you guys how bad it is. Turned it down. But this shit is over subbed as global investors are promised up to x10 return, to fucking fund the US war machine. China doesn't help much by closing off their sectors from receiving a;; foreign funding and will be on the losing end vs the money gunning for US sectors.

Lo and hehold, Anduril's unmanned sub for Australia is aimed squarely at China.

The capitalist imperialists would be the one to win in the end - Is this what you mean?

The $US is now gradually being replaced, so that dollar-based funding will be contained and denied participation.

China has to adapt by steadily opening up her financial market and free floating rmb. Her size is already sufficient, what lacking is confidence and policies. Without doing those, China will be trapping themselves into a disadvantaged position while US keep on harvesting the gains of dollar being the main reserve currency.

We don't need to get you started, you do just fine whining all over the threads here by yourself.

I see another problem here besides what you're whining about - namely that you're in a position to get opportunities to invest in the biggest funding rounds of 2023. Maybe the problem is that your money is working for the enemy.

Not like China is a world-leader in breadth, numbers, and sophistication of UCAVs, UUVs, loitering munitions, etc. or anything.

The same tired and boring myths and tropes we're exposed to here by whiners constantly posting Western agitprop like it's a revelation. None of it will help America change the fact that it's facing an adversary with 4x its population, a far larger STEM cohort, and a greatly superior political system.

The first part of this sentence is the only interesting thing you've said and I'll bet you don't know why. Investors being promised 10x returns means the business model is to milk the Pentagon for of obscene sums of money for fantastical capabilities that will be ready any day now, pinkie promise.

Do you think you know better than the legion of finance professors, PhDs, and senior professionals advising the Chinese government? If so, what do you believe qualifies you to hold such an opinion? (Beyond attending a presentation by a startup with ambitions of being the next parasite to attach to the US government's intestines.)

Never understood how the hell the West always blamed fentanyl on the Chinese government. All fentanyl that goes to the West is exported by Triad gangs, what does the government have anything to do with this? Its the CPC's fault for not eradicating them? Pssh, yeah no shit, organized crime isn't exactly an easy thing to stamp out anywhere. Just look at how much luck America has had with drug cartels despite bieng a superpower.

Fentanyl has legitimate medical applications. The compounds exported by China to NA are precursor components, can't do anything if the fentanyl is being produced outside China. Blame the doctors here prescribing codeine like candy.

Point is moot now since China suspended cooperation with the US over illegal drug enforcement ever since the Pelosi incident.

How many startups burned through round after rounds of fundings and never produce the things they promised? Rivian comes to mind.

Cushy job for the rat. Let's see how he handles being a direct US stooge. Sorry representative of Aus government to US.

Really? You can't understand that? It's called always blaming others for your problems.

Well the US expects China to do all the policing of who they sell the compounds to make fentanyl. No that's the responsibility of the country where the buyer is. As usual the US lies making it sound that these ingredients are only used to make fentanyl. You have legitimate buyers for these compounds around the world. It's the responsibility of the country of the buyers to tell them apart which the US knows is a harder job to demand all of them to do that hence why they only go after China.

I see how some American media and pundits charge China is inflicting their own Opium War on the US. And if there were any US critics there, they should say, "And what was the Opium Wars for the vast majority of Americans that don't know...?"
