The Li Ka-shing family's port deal worth $23 billion suddenly experienced a dramatic turnaround at the last 48-hour signature point, and the century transaction is about to fall through! American capital was about to succeed, but unexpectedly, the Hong Kong government executed a "steal" that directly changed the situation.

This is not an ordinary business transaction! Among the 43 ports that the BlackRock consortium wants to buy, there lies the "lifeblood" of the Panama Canal, Balboa Port and Cristobal Port. Chinese merchant ships account for 21% of the total passing through here every day, equivalent to 1 out of every 5 cargo ships flying the five-star red flag. Even more thrilling is that the U.S. Southern Command is stationed just 80 kilometers away, and the Pentagon's report submitted last year clearly states, "Block the canal if necessary!"

But Li Ka-shing's second son, Li Ze-kai, appeared at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing on March 23, and things began to change. This "little superman" has not participated in mainland official activities for five years, yet he chose to make an appearance on the 9th day of the transaction countdown. On the same day, the chairman of COSCO Shipping Ports suddenly hinted, "We are very interested in strategic resources". Although this central enterprise has cash on hand that is only a fraction of BlackRock's, it is backed by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.

The hardest part is still the operation of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government. Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee invoked the National Security Law to intervene directly, and legal experts found "devilish details" hidden in the transaction documents, namely that BlackRock demanded real-time access to port data, which clearly indicates an intention to provide intelligence to the U.S. military! This is seizing maritime rights through a commercial contract! Now we are in a death countdown of 48 hours! The signing date originally scheduled for April 2 is approaching, but three deadly variables have already emerged:

First, the Ho family suddenly announced the expansion of their 620 icebreaker fleet's Arctic route, directly cutting China's dependence on the Panama Canal by half;

Second, Singapore's sovereign fund suddenly withdrew its investment, creating an $80 billion gap in BlackRock's financing chain;

Third, CK Hutchison's stock price fell 15% in 11 days, evaporating 78.1 billion in market value.

When 97-year-old Li Ka-shing is preparing to sign the "pension mega deal," the Ho family's 620 icebreakers are paving the way on a -50°C ice field. The navigation log exposed by foreign media states: "-50°C low temperature, 19 days to open a new shipping route, saving China $1.5 million per ship in tolls, this fleet has reduced China's dependence on the Panama Canal from 21.4% to 12%.

Additionally, the Chinese company’s newly built Port of Kenkai in Chile has just begun operations, and American influence cannot reach it. Moreover, the China-Thailand land bridge project will bypass the Strait of Malacca, directly breaking the shipping shackles. This is not just commercial competition; it is clearly the ultimate confrontation of two value systems!

The latest situation has two very important points: First, the State Administration for Market Regulation has launched an antitrust investigation, and CK Hutchison has been forced to announce a "suspension of the transaction." But pay attention to the wording—it's "suspension," not "termination!" Second, the Hong Kong government has initiated a review procedure under the (Anti-Foreign Sanctions Ordinance); as long as it is confirmed that there is coercion in the transaction, assets can be frozen at any time.

Insiders reveal: BlackRock is urgently revising contract terms in an attempt to circumvent scrutiny, but it is difficult. Because this game has long exceeded the commercial realm; it concerns the profits of every Chinese export enterprise and is more than just a maritime lifeline for a rising power. Therefore, in this Sino-American showdown, all parties must be tough and must win!#比特币生态
