In terms of melons, the extreme hammer price is 5.8million JPY (36,000USD) for 2 melons. Although this is rather a marketing stunt instead of actual market value, it is a case that resemble how pricy fruits in Japan is.

China expands curbs on foreign deals, tech transfer after Meta-Manus block​

The rules add approval requirements for restricted technology and data transfers and could force companies to rethink cross-border staffing and training deals.​

  • On Monday, China's State Council issued sweeping rules tightening control over overseas transactions involving technology, data, and national security, effective July 1.
  • These regulations follow Beijing's recent order forcing

    to unwind its acquisition of Manus, a case authorities cited as a reference point for scrutinizing foreign control over Chinese-developed AI capabilities.
  • New rules specifically ban cross-border talent transfers without approval, targeting practices like "Singapore-washing," as investors "shall not transfer goods, technologies, services and related data" through indirect arrangements.
  • Global investors face heightened compliance risks under the new regime, which includes provisions allowing Beijing to ban foreign entities from trading with China if their home countries restrict Chinese investment.
  • Companies must now reassess how they structure overseas operations and technology licensing, as this development positions China to draw a firmer line around the movement of technology beyond its borders.

seems different sides framing it differently, one side is to protect CN investments from foreign gov hostile actions, while other side frame it "concerns on capital outflow and pressure on China’s foreign exchange reserves". (wasnt CN surplus all time high recently?)

Another MF overseas Chinese.

弱肉強食, cry me a river.

China ain't like the West killing and enslaving the colonised to extract resources to get ahead.

If you can't stand the heat, then get the fuck out of the kitchen.
That is the problem with these "Diaspora" politics, and listening to anyone who hate itself and his own people, they are always going to be bias, make misleading arguments and most cases outright lie. You have to take what they said with a truck load of salt.

Look the Iranians. Their diaspora along with the Israelis mislead the US into their most disastrous war since Korea. Instead of regime change they will get a stronger Islamic Republic, probably with nuclear weapons and at best a global economic crisis, at worse a global economic depression.

This people could lead the EU in a energy depression, high inflation, scarcity of manufacturing supplies <a lot of them comes from China> and a TWO FRONT trade war against China and the Trump US who is going to use a EU-China trade to gain leverage in his trade war against Europe.
