Hopefully this is the case.
Only if he is actually being investigated. It gets immediately memory holed if this happened to be baseless rumor milling or shoddy information (as the author has insider info). It’s not like FT will release an apology six months later or even revise this article. Let’s be real, pretty much all news media (not just western) are clickbait machines no different than the average YouTuber making vids about country collapse in 5 days. Facts are always going to be secondary to clickbait, as it’s how they make their money.
Thats my rule of thumb. Im getting too old for giving them anymore benefit of the doubt.
They have been wrong so many times and are not taking it seriously. So why should we take them seriously?
Do you have a link to when Ayi said this?
Western media has also been right many times.

It will actually force China to produce more - bullish for China's manufacturing.
Let me guess: Xiao Gonggin is just another delusional liberal Chinese "scholar" who think Russia and Putin are chopped liver. In reality, Trump may well continue the war in Ukraine:
No. Any article that quotes unnamed "former officials" as source has no credibility.
He is the one who in the early 2010s insisted that China was the second Japan and its growth rate would average 2-3% through out the 2010s.
From Arnaud Bertrand:
When you throw shit against the wall, some are bound to stick. Their success rate is probably like flipping a coin.
Just because they guess some right doesn't mean we should take what they say at face value.
They bank on the fact that people give them the benefit of the doubt when they don't deserve it. That's the power of their propaganda. Given all their mistakes, it should be the opposite. they should be met with skepticism until proven otherwise.
Ex. Super micro, Iraq, COVID lab leak, etc.
Is FT british or japanese media?
I don't think anyone here has said to take them at face value though? I've only seen "treat it as a rumour, wait and see" at most.
He's right but there's something he didn't say. China also use Russian resources to produce far cheaper than european and all US allied that make them unable to compete anymore. Which means china also take the greater advantage on them.
He deleted it already, but I remember clearly he said "调查和协助调查还是有很大区别的".
