Trump has played the tariff card and has already lost. How we negotiate moving forward will lead to a new consensus. The real fear is someone like Biden, who doesn’t play cards at all, going years without making a move yet always keeping watch. Trump, on the other hand, loves to play cards, likes to stir up conflicts, and makes situations clear quickly. When the cards are on the table, even if it seems aggressive, there is often room for negotiation afterward. So while he is high-profile, it is not difficult to negotiate with him, and it is easier to reach some form of equitable exchange, providing both sides with room for development.
The real expert fears someone like Biden who doesn’t play cards. For years, he has been relying on his broken alliance system to exert pressure, positioning rules, and coordinating alliances. His Cold War mentality does not confront you directly, creating chaos in Russia-Ukraine and the Middle East, making him actually more difficult to deal with than Trump because you don’t know his next move and cannot hedge against risks.
No matter how we negotiate going forward, it’s all gains, brothers. The relocation of Apple has already been in progress since the Obama era (I previously wrote that it was because they were targeting the ruble at that time, and our counteraction to support the ruble led Obama to formulate a strategy for the relocation of manufacturing). People just didn’t pay much attention. The China-U.S. trade war has lasted fifteen years, and we have been developing throughout these fifteen years. After Trump shows his cards, how we proceed will be a good thing. There is an old Chinese saying, 'One must break before one can stand.'
These older brothers have seriously suppressed us for 15 years, and it’s time for a new consensus to emerge. There’s no need to be too extreme; let’s see how the older brother handles things moving forward.
