The following is a continuation of the previous chapter.
An interest in Hongkong.
Furuta
I wonder if the Trump administration keeps quiet.
Fujii
From the US, the Hong Kong issue is a British matter.
China promised a country-two system, not to the Hong Kong people, but the UK.
So there is no other country in the UK that has the qualification to condemn demo oppression.
Furuta
But as I mentioned earlier, Britain is closer to China.
Fujii
That's right.
Furthermore, the political center is also paralyzed, so it is not a situation that can be very condemned.
The United States is also hard to put out.
Hong Kong democrats are complaining about "Have an interest in Hongkong anyway."
If there is a TV broadcast, it is difficult to do powerful suppression activities.
By the way, Hongkong 's demonstration suppression isn't the cruelest thing in China today.
Furuta
Tibet and Uighur are having a more miserable experience.
Fujii
However, we cannot see the disastrous situation as a video or photo.
Because neither camera nor reporter can enter, the actual situation is unknown.
Furuta
Information is still in Hong Kong.
Fujii
As long as the interest of the world centers, it is a situation that the assertion of plenary power is difficult to do.
Actually, I was a little surprised at this demo.
In the first place, Hong Kong people were only interested in making money and thought that they were politically indifferent.
But it wasn't.
I'm even impressed by the spirit of protecting freedom and democracy.
However, I have to say that Hong Kong's support method is complicated.
Furuta
The Chinese of the 'Ancient Brain' are trying to dominate the 'Modern Brain' Hong Kong!
Fujii
Mr. Andy Chan was angry, saying 'may the country of the democratic government of 7 million persons be bankrupted at all by the administration like the totalitarianism now in the 21st century,' but China doesn't live the 21st century.
Furuta
It's like being dragged into an ancient casket.
Fujii
Absolutely.
They only know that if a revolt occurs, they can suppress it by power.
Furuta
An army would have lined up next to the Hong Kong police.
I was reminded of Qin Shi Huang's Terracotta Warrior when I was watching the video.
It seems to be at the crossroads how to protect democracy from ancient times.
How will American economic sanctions work in China?
Fujii
The US will completely eliminate China's high-tech supply chain.
Furuta
Fukada Moe mentioned the circumstances around that in 'The Truth of 5G Revolution' (Wack), but it was a really interesting book.
She points out that Trump is fighting to bear the full brunt because it will be difficult for China to monopolize 5G.
Fujii
Absolutely.
There is no problem with purchasing shoes and clothing from China.
However, about a research/development/ manufacture of IT and technology like the root in AI, they want to return to the mainland of the USA somehow.
The United States wants to produce at least in friendly countries.
Furuta
If tariffs are applied to that point, even a major IT company in the US will not become a business (laughs).
Fujii
In fact, many companies have announced that they will withdraw the factory from China.
GAFA (Google Amazon Facebook Apple) is the corporation like the statelessness, as a real intension, they dislike Trump.
It would have been nice if it could be produced cheaply in China, but it was no longer possible.
Apple also decided to move part of the factory to Israel and the United States.
Furuta
Trump has a good foresight in that respect.
Fujii
If 'Chinese manufacturing 2025' was realized, the US and Japan were out.
Furuta
Has he revealed in the mood of his favorite grandiloquence?
It is indeed stupid, isn't it?
Fujii
So Xi Jinping is 'excellent' (all laughter).
If there was cunning like Deng Xiaoping, it was a terrible thing if it proceeded silently, and the result was ten years later.
Furuta
It is the Chinese diplomatic and security policy of 'hidden talent and stores power within.'
Fujii
It's a mysterious thing about Chinese, but once they become confident, it becomes strangely arrogant.
Furuta
China has failed all modern history.
There isn't one useful place.
Because it became a little good recently, it had become very arrogant.
The grudges and pains of history have accumulated, and they are exhaling.
Fujii
The Communist Party taught that there is a deep-seated grudge.
