About 40 years ago after China ended the Revolution... then started constructing commercial residential buildings, with amazing “China Speed.” Look at these pioneer buildings in Shenzhen -- in fact they actually had better quality then today´s. China speed？Big joke.show more

this did not exist 10 years ago in china,... now more than 10x the 5-axis cnc builders with increasing better finish/accuracy exist with shenzen-like ecosystem i've been tracking development; at this rate, swiss-quality will be native to china within 10 years impressive and scaryshow more

Visiting Shenzhen China 🇨🇳 today and wow! There is... no way someone can stand here and not be inspired by how much China has changed in the past 3 decades 🤯 There is not another city on the planet that has transformed the way Shenzhen has, once a fishing village of 25,000 people, it’s now home to 18 million people and the hub of tech and innovation in China 🇨🇳 This is the DJI headquarters, that’s right, the company that has emerged as the number one drone company in the world is based in this building Over 8,000 employees spread across offices, R&D Centers and testing facilities. This is honestly one of the most impressive buildings I’ve ever seen The British Trade Minister just visited Shenzhen for the FIRST time in 40 years last week and just think, how many politicians around the world could understand where China is and where it is going if they simply came and saw the truth with their own eyes. To borrow a phrase from my friend and China insider Shaun Rein the next China is China! 🚀show more

My friend @saschaCodes is traveling in 🇨🇳 China right... now Videos here are in Lijiang in Yunnan province which is in the south and borders on Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam, so very close to SEA! I always see Americans and Europeans talk about Asia and then only visit Japan, which is nice but there's so much more to Asia and barely anyone these days visits China anymore China is in many ways a lot like Japan, with cute little walkable traditional villages, and then these massive neon-lit mega cities with the highest speed trains in the world and extreme convenience just like in other Asian cities like Bangkok Anything you hear these days about China is highly politicized, which is sad because it's an amazing country to visit and the people are some of the friendliest I've ever met China has 8 entirely different regional cuisines, my fav being Sichuan, which is spicy and famous for the hotpot And using their high speed train (going 300-400km/h) you can essentially travel the entire country now with ease Obviously the politics is another thing but not everything has to always be about politics, and more foreigners visiting China would long term actually help their politics Politics keeps people apart while travel brings people together I thinkshow more

China now owns the world's largest and most tunnel... boring machines (TBMs). 70% of the world's total are made in China. But this dominance is hard-earned. In 1997, to build the Qinling Tunnel, China paid Germany RMB 700 million for just 2 SECONDHAND TBMs. 700 million is an entire region’s tax revenue back then. But the 700 million didn't include support. China also had to hire German engineers for €800/day (≈RMB 6,800), while the average Chinese worker earned less than RMB 4,000 a year. Back then, the global market was locked by the US, Japan, and Germany. China was being robbed, simply because it couldn't produce its own. In 2002, China began the painful journey of self-development of TBM, which has over 30,000 precision parts. After 6 years, in 2008, China's first homegrown TBM was born. In a 2012 head-to-head test, it matched the best in the world. Today, Chinese TBMs lead the world. Dignity is earned. This is just an example in TBM. In humanoid robots, in electric cars, in solar farms, in drones...China has plenty of examples that make the country strong again.show more

🇨🇳🇾🇪🇸🇦 China is now operating with a strategy built... decades in advance. Following the Houthi blockade of the Bab el Mandeb, while the region faces growing disruption, China appears to be calmly maintaining access to its energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz, while its commercial vessels continue transiting the Red Sea without facing significant interference. Why? China identified the world's key strategic chokepoints years ago and began establishing military and logistical footholds near them long before today's crises emerged. At present, two Chinese commercial vessels are reportedly loading oil at Yanbu and continuing their journey through the Red Sea toward the Arabian Sea. The Houthis have issued warnings and imposed a blockade, yet Chinese shipping continues to move. The reason is simple. China has a military presence in Djibouti, positioned near the Bab el Mandeb. Any serious attack on Chinese shipping could trigger a much stronger response. This is the advantage of long term strategic planning. China is not reacting to the crisis today. It positioned itself for it years ago.show more

The worst world cup ever by the USA. Can... you imagine if China were hosting the world cup and did all these things Trump/US did: - China's president called Infantino to complain about FIFA rules and change them - Xi plans to bother and celebrate trophy lift with players - Prices for tickets most expensive ever - Teams had to stay in Japan and fly to China before each matchday - Fans couldn't enter China for 'security reasons' - Xi won a made up 'FIFA peace prize' - Security holding up top footballers from 'risky' countries wherever they go But in reality, China hosted two olympics before and were really affordable and successful, more and more people are now coming to China visa free from around the world unrestricted. In fact, here's a bar where thousands of fans from around the world go to in Shanghai (very international city) to watch the World Cup.. seems way better!!show more

President Trump has long claimed that he personally intervened... to halt Operation Sindoor on May 10, 2025. He has done so on 65 different occasions in various forums in at least seven different countries. The Prime Minister has never broken his silence on these claims made by his so-called good friend. Now the Chinese Foreign Minister makes a similar claim and says China also mediated. On July 4, 2025, the Deputy Chief of Army Staff Lt. Gen Rahul Singh had publicly stated that during Operation Sindoor, India was actually confronting and combating China. Given that China was decisively aligned with Pakistan, Chinese claims of having mediated between India and Pakistan are concerning - not just because they directly contradict what the people of our country have been led to believe, but because they seem to make a joke of our national security itself. This claim must also be understood in the context of our relationship with China. We have begun re-engagement with them - but unfortunately it has been on Chinese terms. The Prime Minister’s clean chit to China on June 19, 2020, has considerably weakened India’s negotiating position. Our trade deficit is at record highs and much of our exports are dependent on imports from China. Provocative actions by China in relation to Arunachal Pradesh continue unabated. Amidst such a lopsided - and hostile - relationship, the people of India need clarity on what role China played in the abrupt halt to Operation Sindoorshow more

🛥 Chinese ships tried to rein in a Philippine... patrol boat — but ended up spectacularly colliding at sea The incident occurred in the South China Sea, near the disputed Scarborough Shoal — one of the key flashpoints between China and the Philippines since 2012. 🇵🇭 Philippine Coast Guard spokesperson Jay Tarriela said the Chinese coast guard first blocked Philippine vessels that were assisting fishermen and blasted them with water cannons, then began chasing the boats as they left the conflict zone. As a result, a Chinese navy ship collided with one of its own coast guard vessels. Didn’t go as planned 🤷show more

🚨 SHOCKING: CHINA MAY ALREADY HAVE DRONES DISGUISED AS... BIRDS FLYING OVER AMERICA 🦅🤖 Not science fiction anymore. Military analysts and defense researchers have been warning for YEARS about ultra-small surveillance drones designed to look and move like real birds. Some flap their wings. Some can perch on buildings or power lines. Some are nearly silent. Now ask yourself: How would anyone know the difference? Imagine thousands of “birds” flying over military bases, power plants, ports, farms, or even your neighborhood… recording everything in real time. No radar detection. No suspicion. No one looks twice at a bird. China has poured BILLIONS into AI warfare, autonomous robotics, and surveillance tech. They don’t need massive fighter jets everywhere when they can flood the skies with tiny robotic spies hiding in plain sight. And if they can disguise drones as birds today… What will they be able to disguise tomorrow? The future of espionage isn’t coming. It’s already here. 😳show more

9:30 AM this morning. Gyirong Port in Xizang, China.... Days ago, there were a road, a bridge, a parking lot and a row of buildings. Today, Chinese firefighters are searching it by hand. Stone. Steel. Running water. Every few meters, they stop and call out: “Anyone there?” Then they listen. Only the water answers so far. But they don’t stop. They move, and call out again. Watching this, I thought of the final scene of Titanic-the lifeboat returning through the darkness, calling out into the silence to see if anyone was alive out there. For a moment, there was no answer. Then Rose found a whistle. And she was heard. That is why they keep calling. Because sometimes, somewhere beneath the silence, someone may still be waiting to answer.show more

‼️🇺🇦🔥 NATO depleted uranium shells were stored at the... bombed factory near Kiev, - ex-deputy of the Rada ▪️ At the attacked "Vizar" factory in the satellite city of Keiv - Vishneve, right next to residential buildings, shells with depleted uranium and cluster munitions were stored, said ex-MP Mosiychuk*. ▪️ Due to this and a powerful detonation after the attack, five streets were almost completely destroyed, and the population was forced to evacuate. ▪️ These munitions were transferred to Ukraine by Britain in 2023, and then by the USA for the Challenger 2 and Abrams tanks. ▪️ Mosiychuk criticized the Ukrainian leadership, stating that the placement of a military warehouse in the immediate vicinity of residential buildings posed great risks to the civilian population. ▪️ The responsibility for the placement of such facilities in the suburbs of Kiev should lie with the officials who made the relevant decisions. *Listed by Rosfinmonitoring as a terrorist and extremist.show more

China Eastern flight, Lanzhou to Guiyang this morning. Plane... had already landed and was taxiing when someone in front starts screaming “Fire!” and running. People look up... overhead bin is on fire.. Crew and passengers trying to deal with it, then the fire trucks show up on the ramp. We keep seeing this exact scene. Power banks and lithium batteries in the overhead bins. They get crushed, shorted, or just decide to go thermal runaway. Happened on Air China last year too, and plenty of other flights. That’s why the rules exist: keep the power bank under the seat or in the seat pocket, switched off, and only bring the ones that meet the airline limits. I’ve been on the ramp long enough to know how fast cabin smoke can turn into a real problem. Glad this one happened after landing and not at altitude, but “lucky” shouldn’t be the strategy. Be careful with these things, guys. Or leave the big power banks at home if you’re not sure.show more

Chinese factories can build a car in 77 seconds,... with robots doing the work at a scale the U.S. cannot match right now. And Trump is out here talking about tariffs like they are a magic switch that makes America “make things again.” Look at the automation in that kind of plant. Even with tariffs, it would take the U.S. decades, realistically 40 years, to rebuild the industrial base and the machine building capability needed to produce that level of robotics at scale, then stack enough volume to get true economies of scale. And for what, exactly. U.S. cars barely have a market outside the U.S. Meanwhile China builds for the world. As for the rest of the planet watching America’s tariff daydreams: couldn’t the world care less.show more

A major scene unfolded at the CJP protest at... Jantar Mantar today during dinner. People were served roti with khichdi, and many got upset, asking, "What kind of combination is this?" They were almost about to get into a physical confrontation with Junaid. But at the last moment, some CJP members stepped in and apologized, assuring everyone that it wouldn't happen again from tomorrow. Only then did the crowd calm down. They gave a final warning that they wanted a better dinner from the next day, and only then did they somehow finish their khichdi and roti. Just look at the food tantrums at a protest. 😭show more

Just two months ago, we were on the verge... of letting go of a customer that we had been serving for more than two years. The prices were super competitive as they were procuring these springs from China. According to our cost calculations, we would have to sell them these springs at our breakeven price point. We would not be making any profit from their orders. The volumes were huge and we decided to take up the challenge. In manufacturing, one of the very important metric that your product cost depends on is cycle time. The speed at which we are able to process that part within the desired tolerance. Higher the speed at which you can manufacture, lower the cost of making that component. We could only manage 150 pcs/minute on our imported machines. At this speed, it was unviable for us. It would only make sense for us to continue if we were somehow able to manufacture this spring at a minimum of 200 pcs/minute. We were far apart and it seemed we wouldn’t be able to reach that goal. We were on the verge of giving up after two years of persistent effort in increasing our speed. Today, we manufactured that same spring on the CNC machines that we built in-house at a whopping 220 pcs/minute! We went from almost letting go off that customer to now asking that very same customer to increase our order volumes! First video is our imported machine at 150 pcs/minute. The second video is our in-house machine at 220 pcs/minute.show more
