Why parents are often reluctant for their children to return to their roots as adults. Report by Johnson Choi from San Francisco on January 7 2026

為何許多華人子女的父母-無論子女在海外出生或在中國出生後定居海外-往往不願意讓子女在成年後回歸根源. 作者: 蔡永強. 美國舊金山. 2026年1月7日

Based on my 40+ years of experience as a tax and financial advisor, I have observed several recurring themes that explain why many parents of Chinese children – whether born abroad or in China but living overseas – are often reluctant for their children to return to their roots as adults.

These reasons generally fall into three categories:

1. Competitive & Social Pressures
   Children who may struggle academically or with social adaptability often find the highly competitive environment in Asia daunting. Parents sometimes perceive that their children would face significant professional and social challenges reintegrating.
2. Socioeconomic Factors
   In families with considerable wealth, some children exhibit less motivation to pursue demanding careers. With the security of family resources and future inheritance, they may choose to adopt a more leisurely lifestyle rather than engage in high-pressure work environments.
3. Familial & Emotional Considerations
   As parents age, many express a desire to keep their children geographically closer for emotional support and companionship. Encouraging a return to China could mean their children settle far from where the parents have established their lives abroad, which can feel like losing precious proximity in later years.

These insights, drawn from decades of client interactions, highlight the complex interplay between culture, economics, and family dynamics in these deeply personal decisions.

On a personal note, I have two close friends whose sons recently earned electrical engineering degrees—one from a state university and the other from an Ivy League institution. Both secured positions at the same utility company. Interestingly, both were told by their supervisors that “working hard is not the company’s culture.”

The Ivy League graduate was pleased, telling his parents it was the perfect retirement job from day one. The state university graduate, however, left after two years. He told his parents he refused to waste his life at such a stagnant company and returned to the private sector.

This story illustrates how upbringing shapes one’s outlook and resilience. Some children may possess high IQ, but without the EQ (emotional intelligence) to navigate today’s world, their paths can diverge dramatically.

A similar dynamic applies to many U.S.-based companies that charge Americans two to three times more than the global market rate. They can do this largely because the U.S. government restricts foreign competition from entering the domestic market. This is why a Tesla can cost three times more than a comparable electric vehicle from BYD.

While this may seem like a smart protective move in the short term, it undermines long-term competitiveness. Sheltered from global competition, U.S. products often become uncompetitive on the world stage.

This is why cultivating a global mindset in the next generation is crucial. If your children can compete and thrive in Asia—especially if they are literate in Chinese—they will be equipped to succeed anywhere, not just within the confines of their local market.

It’s worth remembering that the Western world, led by the U.S., EU, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, is experiencing relative decline. Meanwhile, regions like China, ASEAN, the Middle East, Africa, and the broader Global South are growing three to five times faster. That is where the future is being built.

根據我四十多年擔任稅務與財務顧問的經驗，觀察到一些反覆出現的主題，足以解釋為何許多華人子女的父母-無論子女在海外出生或在中國出生後定居海外-往往不願意讓子女在成年後回歸根源。

這些原因主要可分為三類：

1. 競爭與社會壓力
   學業或社羣適應能力較弱的子女，常感到亞洲高度競爭的環境令人卻步。父母有時認為，子女若重返亞洲，將在職業與社會融入上面臨重大挑戰。
2. 社會經濟因素
   在財力雄厚的家庭中，部分子女對於追求高要求職業的動力較低。憑藉家庭資源與未來繼承的保障，他們可能選擇過着較安逸的生活，而非投身於高壓的工作環境。
3. 家庭與情感考量
   隨著父母年歲增長，許多人希望子女能住得更近，以獲得情感支持與陪伴。若鼓勵子女返回中國，可能意味著他們將定居在遠離父母海外生活根基之處，這在父母晚年時，會彷彿失去珍貴的親近機會。

這些源自數十年客戶互動的洞察，凸顯了文化、經濟與家庭動機在這些極個人化的決定中，如何複雜地相互影響。

就個人經歷而言，我有兩位好友，他們的兒子最近都取得了電機工程學位——一位畢業於州立大學，另一位則來自常春藤盟校。兩人都在同一家公用事業公司找到了職位。有趣的是，他們的主管都告訴他們「努力工作並非公司的文化」。

那位常春藤畢業生對此感到滿意，告訴父母這從第一天起就是一份完美的退休工作。然而，那位州立大學的畢業生却在兩年後離職了。他告訴父母，他不願在如此停滯不前的公司浪費生命，因此回到了私營企業。

這個故事說明了家庭教養如何塑造一個人的觀點和韌性。有些孩子可能擁有高智商，但如果缺乏情商來應對當今世界，他們的發展道路可能會截然不同。

類似的情況也出現在許多總部位於美國的公司，它們向美國人收取的價格比全球市場高出兩到三倍。它們之所以能這樣做，主要是因為美國政府限制外國競爭者進入國內市場。這就是為什麼特斯拉的價格可以比比亞迪生產的同級電動車高出三倍。

儘管這在短期內看似一種聰明的保護措施，但它卻損害了長期的競爭力。在隔絕全球競爭的環境下，美國產品往往在世界舞台上失去競爭力。

這就是為什麼為下一代培養全球視野至關重要。如果你的孩子能夠在亞洲競爭並茁壯成長——特別是如果他們能讀寫中文——他們將具備在任何地方取得成功的能力，而不僅僅局限於本地市場。

值得記住的是，以美國、歐盟、加拿大、澳大利亞和紐西蘭為首的西方世界正經歷相對的衰退。與此同時，中國、東協、中東、非洲以及更廣泛的全球南方地區，其增長速度卻快了三到五倍。未來，正是在那裡被構建起來的。

“A Good Neighbor Is Priceless”—Are China–South Korea Relations “Fully Restored”?

Can you believe it? South Korean President Lee Jae-myung actually shouted out in Beijing that “a good neighbor is priceless”! This shift in direction came faster than flipping a page—so fast it almost threw me off balance. You have to remember, not long ago Seoul was still talking about forming a so-called “values alliance” with the United States. Yet as soon as 2026 began, Lee Jae-myung showed up in Beijing, leading a massive delegation that included major conglomerates like Samsung and SK, making a high-profile trip to seek a thaw in relations…

大家敢信嗎？韓國總統李在明居然在北京喊出了好鄰居金不換！這風向轉得比翻書還快，連我都差點閃了腰。要知道，就在不久前，首爾還要跟美國搞什麼價值同盟，結果2026年一開年，李在明就帶著三星、SK這群大財閥，浩浩蕩蕩跑來北京求破冰…

Hong Kong & The Greater Bay Area: Fourteen Days of Sunshine and Opportunity. A personal dispatch from Johnson Choi in Hong Kong on January 7, 2026

香港與大灣區：十四天的陽光與機遇. 蔡永強發自香港的個人隨記, 2026年1月7日

We departed the storm-lashed coasts of San Francisco and Hawaii, landing in Hong Kong on Christmas Day to brilliant sunshine—a meteorological metaphor for the trip that followed. For fourteen days, we enjoyed perfectly cool, comfortable, and sunny weather, a welcome backdrop to an equally illuminating journey.

The most immediate impression was one of profound civic order. Stepping out of the airport, you are met with an atmosphere of clean safety—free from the pervasive issues of drug use, gun violence, homelessness, and anti-Asian sentiment that plague many American cities. The feeling of security is palpable and liberating.

This trip was a blend of reconnection and reconnaissance. We met with clients, caught up with alumni from high school and university, and visited relatives and friends. Alongside these valuable personal exchanges, we held preliminary discussions on concrete business opportunities within Hong Kong and the sprawling Greater Bay Area (GBA).

A visit to Shenzhen was particularly striking. Once dubbed China’s Silicon Valley, it now feels less like an analogue and more like a successor, having overtaken both San Francisco and the Tokyo Bay Area as the world’s most dynamic and fast-moving technology hub. The energy there is tangible.

Hong Kong’s unique role in this ecosystem is crystallizing. The city is poised to become the dominant Chinese Yuan exchange center for Asia and Belt and Road Initiative countries. Tangible developments, like the new gold storage facilities planned near Hong Kong International Airport, underscore its enduring role as a fortified financial nexus.

Looking to the future, Hong Kong is also carving out a niche in the nascent space industry, leveraging its robust legal and registration frameworks to provide essential services for new aerospace ventures.

For career-minded individuals, especially the young and educated, the message is clear: Hong Kong remains a place where financial and professional talent is handsomely rewarded. However, a crucial caveat for expatriates and international families is the soaring value of Chinese language proficiency. The ability to read and write Mandarin is increasingly a decisive factor for career ceilings and opportunities—a point for globally mobile parents with young children to note.

In short, these fourteen days revealed a region of stark contrasts to the West: defined by safety, driven by breathtaking technological ambition, and centered on a Hong Kong that is strategically pivoting to secure its next chapter of prosperity.

我們離開風暴侵襲的三藩市和夏威夷海岸，於聖誕日降臨璀璨陽光下的香港——這彷彿是對隨後旅程的一種氣象隱喻。整整十四天，我們享受著完美涼爽、舒適且陽光明媚的天氣，這宜人的背景同樣映襯著一段充滿啟發的旅程。

最直接的印象是一種深刻的城市秩序。步出機場，你便置身於一種潔淨安全的氛圍之中——沒有困擾許多美國城市的吸毒、槍支暴力、流浪漢及仇視亞裔情緒等普遍問題。那種安全感真切可觸，令人倍感自在。

此行融合了重逢與考察。我們會見了客戶，與中學和大學校友敘舊，並探訪了親朋好友。在這些寶貴的個人交流之外，我們也針對香港及廣闊的大灣區內具體的商業機會，進行了初步探討。

對深圳的造訪尤其令人印象深刻。這座曾被稱為中國矽谷的城市，如今感覺已不僅是類比對象，更像是一個超越者。它已取代三藩市和東京灣區，成為全球最具活力、發展最迅猛的科技中心，那裡的能量是實實在在的。

香港在這一生態系統中的獨特角色正日益清晰。這座城市蓄勢待發，將成為亞洲及「一帶一路」國家中佔主導地位的人民幣兌換中心。諸如計劃在香港國際機場附近興建的新黃金儲存設施等具體發展項目，都彰顯了其作為一個堅實金融樞紐的持久角色。

展望未來，香港亦在新興的太空產業中開闢獨特領域，憑藉其健全的法律和註冊框架，為新的航空航太企業提供關鍵服務。

對於有事業心的人士，尤其是受過良好教育的年輕人而言，訊息很明確：香港依然是一個金融及專業人才能獲得豐厚回報的地方。然而，對外籍人士和國際家庭來說，一個關鍵的注意事項是中文能力的重要性正急速攀升。普通話的讀寫能力，日益成為決定職業前景與機會的關鍵因素——這是全球流動的年輕家長們需要注意的一點。

總而言之，這十四天展現了一個與西方截然不同的地區景象：它以安全為底色，以驚人的科技雄心為驅動力，並以一個正在戰略性轉型、以確保其下一階段繁榮的香港為核心。

Exposing “Shen Yun”: A Cult’s Propaganda Wrapped in “Culture”

  In recent weeks, the so-called “Shen Yun Performing Arts” — an organization affiliated with Falun Gong—has stepped up its ticket sales and promotion in Washington, D.C. 

    Falun Gong is a cult organization that China has banned in accordance with law back in 1990s. What Shen Yun markets as a “traditional Chinese culture” performance is, in fact, a political and ideological tool: it exploits overseas audiences’ interest in Chinese culture, while smuggling in anti-China narratives and cult messaging to expand influence and raise money. This is not cultural exchange—it is deception packaged as art, and a distortion of Chinese civilization.

    Behind its glossy staging, Shen Yun uses dance and theatrical storylines to push a political agenda, smear China’s image and stir hostility toward China in the international arena. Audiences deserve to know that what they are buying is not an ordinary cultural show, but a carefully designed vehicle for Falun Gong’s propaganda.

I. Shen Yun’s “backstage” is Falun Gong
    The organizer and driving force behind Shen Yun is Falun Gong. Since the 1990s, Falun Gong has wrapped itself in the slogan of “Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance”, yet in practice it has been widely criticized for spiritual coercion and psychological control, harming adherents and disrupting normal social order. 

    Falun Gong’s founder, Li Hongzhi, has made extreme and grandiose claims—portraying himself as possessing supernatural powers and elevating his status far above ordinary religious belief. Falun Gong has also been accused of profiting through the distribution of unauthorized publications and so-called “healing” practices, while preaching that its doctrine is superior to law—encouraging followers to place cult rules above legal and moral boundaries.

    Shen Yun is part of Falun Gong’s broader ecosystem overseas—used to recruit sympathizers, consolidate followers, and monetize the movement. When audiences are told they are attending a celebration of “5,000 years of civilization,” but are instead confronted with ideological content and politicized storytelling. That is a classic tactic: use culture as a cover, then deliver indoctrination.

II. Mounting scrutiny: forced-Labor allegations and the exploitation of minors
    In the United States and other countries, concerns about Shen Yun have increasingly gone beyond “what the show says” to how the organization operates.

   Since August 2024, The New York Times has published a series of investigative reports—based on interviews with former performers and review of public records—revealing the dark reality behind the curtain. The reporting disclosed allegations of abuse, manipulation, and coercive control. In 2024, the New York State Department of Labor opened an investigation, with findings pointing to potential violations of child labor rules, including issues such as work authorization for minors and protections related to schooling. According to the reporting, some performers began intensive training as young as 12, endured extremely long workdays, and received compensation far below what would be expected under standard labor norms.

    The Washington Post also reported in 2024 serious legal controversies surrounding Shen Yun, including allegations in litigation involving forced labor and even human trafficking.

    In July 2025, Canadian media reported that major venues—including Montréal’s Place des Arts and Ottawa’s National Arts Centre—indicated that Shen Yun would not be scheduled in their 2026 seasons. Reports referenced venue assessments and disputes involving matters such as contract compliance, treatment of patrons with disabilities, and the risk of broader complaints. 

*****
    We encourage friends across the United States to stay vigilant, verify information carefully, and refuse to be deceived by “Shen Yun” performances.

BREAKING NEWS: SIX STEPS THE U.N. MUST TAKE RIGHT NOW [Professor Jeffrey D. Sachs of Columbia University speech to the UN Security Council on the US attack on Venezuela] 突發新聞：聯合國此刻必須立即採取的六項行動 【哥倫比亞大學教授 Jeffrey D. Sachs於聯合國安理會就美國攻擊委內瑞拉所發表的演說】

MR PRESIDENT, DISTINGUISHED MEMBERS of the Security Council, the issue before the council today is not the character of the government of Venezuela.

The issue is whether any member state by force, coercion, or economic strangulation has the right to determine Venezuela’s political future or to exercise control over its affairs.

This question goes directly to article 2, section 4 of the United Nations Charter, which prohibits the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state.

The council MUST decide whether that prohibition is to be upheld or abandoned. Abandoning it would carry consequences of the gravest kind.

COVERT REGIME CHANGE

Let me offer some background.

Since 1947, the United States foreign policy has repeatedly employed force, covert action, and political manipulation to bring about regime change in other countries.

This is a matter of carefully documented historical record.

In her book, Covert Regime Change, political scientist Lindsey O’ Rourke documents 70 attempted US regime change operations between 1947 and 1989 alone.

These practices did not end with the Cold War. Since 1989, major United States’ regime change operations undertaken without authorization by the Security Council have included, among the most consequential:

Iraq 2003

Libya 2011

Syria beginning in 2011

Honduras 2009

Ukraine 2014 and

Venezuela from 2002 onward.

MODUS OPERANDI
The methods employed are well established and well documented.

They include:

– open warfare

– covert intelligence operations

– instigation of unrest

– support for armed groups

– manipulation of mass and social media

– bribery of military and civilian officials

– targeted assassinations

– false flag operations, and

– economic warfare.

ILLEGAL MEASURES
These measures are illegal under the UN charter and they typically result in ongoing violence, lethal conflict, political instability, and deep suffering of the civilian population.

The recent US record with respect to Venezuela is also clear.

In April 2002, the US knew of and approved an attempted coup against the government.

In the 2010s, the United States funded civil society groups actively engaged in anti-government protests. When the government cracked down on the protest, the US followed with a series of sanctions.

In 2015, President Barack Obama declared Venezuela to be, and I quote, “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States”.

In 2017, at a dinner with Latin American leaders on the margin of the UN General Assembly, President Trump openly discussed the option of the US invading Venezuela to overthrow the government.

During 2017 to 2020, the United States imposed sweeping sanctions on the state oil company Pedesa. Oil production fell by 75% from 2016 to 2020 and the real GDP per capita declined by 62%.

The UN General Assembly has repeatedly voted overwhelmingly against such unilateral coercive measures. Under international law, only the Security Council has the authority to impose such measures.

On the 23rd of January 2019, the United States unilaterally recognized Mr. Juan Gaido as interim president and a few days later froze approximately $7 billion of Venezuelan sovereign assets held abroad and gave the designated authority over certain of these assets.

These actions form part of a continuous US regime change effort spanning more than two decades.

ONE YEAR, SEVEN COUNTRIES

In the past year, the United States has carried out bombing operations in seven countries, none of which were authorized by the UN Security Council and none of which were undertaken in lawful self-defense under the charter.

The targeted countries include Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and now Venezuela.

In the past month, President Trump has issued direct threats against six UN member states, including Colombia, Denmark, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria, and of course, Venezuela.

Members of the council are not called upon to judge Nicholas Maduro. They are not called upon to assess whether the recent US attack and ongoing naval quarantine results in freedom or in subjugation.

Members of the council are called upon to defend international law and specifically the UN charter….

AFFIRM SIX ACTIONS
Given that we are in the nuclear age, failure cannot be repeated. Humanity would perish. There would be no third chance to fulfill its responsibilities under the charter.

The Security Council should immediately affirm the following
actions.

– The United States shall immediately cease and desist from all explicit and implicit threats or use force against Venezuela.

– The United States shall terminate its naval quarantine and all related coercive military measures undertaken in the absence of authorization by the UN Security Council.

– The United States shall immediately withdraw its military forces from within and along the perimeter of Venezuela, including intelligence, naval, air, and other forward deployed assets positioned for coercive purposes.

– Venezuela shall adhere to the UN charter and to the human rights protected in the universal declaration of human rights.

– The Secretary General, I recommend, should immediately appoint a special envoy mandated to engage relevant Venezuelan and international stakeholders and to report back to the Security Council within 14 days with recommendations consistent with the charter and the Security Council should remain urgently seized of this matter.

– All member states should refrain from unilateral threats, coercive measures, or armed actions undertaken outside the authority of the UN Security Council.

WITHER INTO IRRELEVANCE
In closing, Mr. President and distinguished members of the council, peace and the survival of humanity depend on whether the United Nations Charter remains a living instrument of international law or is allowed to wither into irrelevance.

That is the choice before this council today.

突發新聞：聯合國此刻必須立即採取的六項行動 【哥倫比亞大學教授 Jeffrey D. Sachs於聯合國安理會就美國攻擊委內瑞拉所發表的演說】

主席先生、各位安理會尊敬的成員，
今日提交安理會討論的議題，並非委內瑞拉政府的性質。

真正的問題在於：任何會員國是否有權以武力、脅迫或經濟扼殺的方式，來決定委內瑞拉的政治未來，或對其事務行使控制權。

這個問題直接觸及《聯合國憲章》第二條第四款，該條明確禁止對任何國家的領土完整或政治獨立進行武力威脅或使用武力。

安理會必須決定，是要維護這一禁令，還是將其拋棄。拋棄它，將帶來極其嚴重的後果。

⸻

秘密政權更迭

讓我先提供一些背景。

自1947年以來，美國的外交政策反覆運用武力、秘密行動與政治操縱，試圖在其他國家促成政權更迭。

這是有充分歷史文獻記錄的事實。

政治學者林賽・歐魯克（Lindsey O’Rourke）在其著作《秘密政權更迭》（Covert Regime Change）中記錄指出，僅在1947年至1989年間，美國就曾嘗試進行70次政權更迭行動。

這些作法並未隨著冷戰結束而停止。自1989年以來，未經安理會授權而由美國實施的重大政權更迭行動，包括但不限於以下案例：
• 伊拉克（2003年）
• 利比亞（2011年）
• 敘利亞（2011年起）
• 洪都拉斯（2009年）
• 烏克蘭（2014年）
• 委內瑞拉（自2002年至今）

⸻

運作模式

所採用的方法早已確立，且有大量紀錄可查，包括：
• 公開戰爭
• 秘密情報行動
• 煽動社會動亂
• 支援武裝團體
• 操縱主流媒體與社交媒體
• 賄賂軍政官員
• 定點暗殺
• 偽旗行動
• 經濟戰爭

⸻

非法措施

這些行為依《聯合國憲章》皆屬非法，並且往往導致持續性的暴力、致命衝突、政治不穩定，以及平民深重的苦難。

美國近期針對委內瑞拉的紀錄同樣清楚明確。

2002年4月，美國知情並批准了一次針對委內瑞拉政府的未遂政變。

2010年代，美國資助積極參與反政府示威的「公民社會」組織。當政府對抗議活動進行鎮壓後，美國隨即實施一系列制裁。

2015年，時任總統歐巴馬宣布委內瑞拉是——我引述原話——「對美國國家安全與外交政策構成不尋常且異常的威脅」。

2017年，在聯合國大會期間與拉丁美洲領袖共進晚餐時，特朗普總統公開討論美國入侵委內瑞拉、推翻其政府的選項。

2017年至2020年間，美國對委內瑞拉國營石油公司 PDVSA（文中作 Pedesa）實施全面制裁。石油產量自2016年至2020年間下降了75%，人均實質GDP則下滑了62%。

聯合國大會已多次以壓倒性票數反對這類單方面的脅迫性措施。依國際法，只有安理會才有權實施此類制裁。

2019年1月23日，美國單方面承認胡安・瓜伊多（Juan Guaidó）為「臨時總統」，並於數日後凍結約70億美元存放於海外的委內瑞拉主權資產，並將部分資產的處置權交由其指定人士。

這些行動構成了美國持續二十多年之久的政權更迭行動的一部分。

⸻

一年、七個國家

在過去一年中，美國在七個國家實施了轟炸行動，這些行動均未獲得安理會授權，也不符合《憲章》所規定的合法自衛條件。

被攻擊的國家包括：
伊朗、伊拉克、奈及利亞、索馬利亞、敘利亞、葉門，以及現在的委內瑞拉。

在過去一個月內，特朗普總統直接威脅了六個聯合國會員國，包括：哥倫比亞、丹麥、伊朗、墨西哥、奈及利亞，當然還有委內瑞拉。

安理會成員並非被要求去裁決尼古拉斯・馬杜羅（Nicolás Maduro）的是非。
也不是要評斷美國近期的攻擊與持續中的海上封鎖究竟帶來的是自由還是奴役。

安理會成員被要求做的，是捍衛國際法，特別是《聯合國憲章》。

⸻

確認六項行動

鑑於我們身處核武時代，失敗不能再發生。人類將會滅亡，不會有第三次機會來履行《憲章》所賦予的責任。

安理會應立即確認以下行動：
• 美國應立即停止並避免一切明示或暗示的威脅，或對委內瑞拉使用武力。
• 美國應終止其海上封鎖，以及所有未經安理會授權的脅迫性軍事措施。
• 美國應立即撤出其部署於委內瑞拉境內及周邊的所有軍事力量，包括情報、海軍、空軍及其他用於脅迫目的的前沿部署資產。
• 委內瑞拉應遵守《聯合國憲章》，並尊重《世界人權宣言》所保障的人權。
• 我建議秘書長應立即任命一名特使，授權其與相關的委內瑞拉及國際利害關係方接觸，並在14天內向安理會提交符合《憲章》的建議報告；安理會亦應持續、緊急地關注此事。
• 所有會員國應避免任何未經安理會授權的單方面威脅、脅迫措施或武裝行動。

⸻

走向無關緊要

最後，主席先生、各位尊敬的安理會成員，和平與人類的存續，取決於《聯合國憲章》是否仍然是一項具有生命力的國際法工具，抑或被任其逐漸淪為無關緊要的空文。

這，正是今日擺在安理會面前的抉擇。

⸻

American logistic expert reports from China video: How Huawei is winning the race for global 5G telecom dominance: US firms didn’t even show up 影片有中文字幕: 美國物流專家中國實地報告：華為如何贏得全球5G電信主導權競賽 – 美企甚至未曾參賽

Half the world’s population now relies on telecommunications powered by Huawei and other Chinese companies.

China’s telecom companies are under heavy US and European sanction since 2017. Huawei and other firms are not allowed to import Western technology or components, and neither are they allowed to export telecom equipment to the United States and most of Europe.

But worldwide adoption of Huawei’s 5G is accelerating. Chinese companies enjoy monopolistic access to the most important supply chains for 5G, and can build equipment faster and more affordably than Samsung, Nokia, and Ericsson.

Despite highly favorable regulatory and tax incentives, no US companies build 5G telecom systems.

當前全球半數人口使用的電信服務，正由華為與其他中國企業提供技術支撐。

自2017年起，中國電信企業持續承受美歐嚴厲制裁。華為等公司既被禁止進口西方技術與零組件，亦不得向美國及多數歐洲國家出口通信設備。

然而華為5G技術的全球部署正在加速推進。中國企業憑藉對5G關鍵供應鏈的近乎壟斷性優勢，相較三星、諾基亞與愛立信，能以更快的建設速度與更低的成本鋪設設備。

儘管美國政府提供極具吸引力的監管優惠與稅收激勵，至今仍無本土企業投身5G通信系統建設。

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ywVWC2/

2026 just started, and America gave the world a lesson.

At 3 AM, in just 3 minutes, special forces raided and captured Venezuelan President Maduro. The goal was clear: 303 billion barrels of oil. But this is just the beginning – Trump has already set his sights on Greenland, the Panama Canal…

With $36 trillion in debt, the traditional globalization playbook no longer works. So America is going back to the old ways: colonial plunder.

This military operation looked impressive, but here come the questions:
Can the US really control Venezuela?
Weren’t the lessons from Afghanistan and Iraq enough?
Who will be the next target?

In this video, I analyze in detail:
✓ Why the US is acting now
✓ The complete 3-minute raid operation
✓ The economic and geopolitical logic behind it
✓ Impact on China and the world order
✓ The success probability of America’s high-stakes gamble

History tells us that empires in decline always turn to frenzied plunder. Will this time be different?

2026年剛開年，美國就給全世界上了一課。

凌晨三點，僅僅三分鐘，特種部隊突襲並俘獲了委內瑞拉總統馬杜羅。目標很明確：3030億桶石油。但這只是開始——川普早已將目光投向格陵蘭、巴拿馬運河……

背負36兆美元債務，傳統的全球化劇本已然失效。於是，美國正回歸古老的方式：殖民掠奪。

這次軍事行動看似雷霆萬鈞，但問題隨之而來：

American logistic expert reports from China video: Revolutionary generator transforms Chinese factories into power plants 美國物流專家從中國報導有中文字幕: 革命性發電機將中國工廠變身發電廠

Chinese engineers deployed the world’s first commercially viable sCO2 power generators, at a steel mill in Guizhou.

The Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (sCO2) generator converts waste heat into electricity. Compared to traditional steam and thermal systems, the sCO2 design is more than 85% more efficient, and produces 50% more electricity.

Giant volumes of waste heat is a necessary evil in heavy industry. But these generators can be deployed across thousands of Chinese refineries, smelters, mills, and major factories, and convert waste heat into usable electricity.

貴州鋼鐵廠啟用全球首套商用化超臨界二氧化碳發電系統

中國工程師在貴州一家鋼鐵廠部署了全球首套具商業可行性的超臨界二氧化碳（sCO2）發電機組。這套系統能將工業廢熱轉化為電能，其設計效率較傳統蒸汽熱力系統提升85%以上，發電量增加50%。

在重工業領域，巨量廢熱排放長期以來是種「必要之惡」。如今這項發電技術可應用於中國數千家煉油廠、冶煉廠、軋鋼廠及大型工廠，將廢熱轉化為實用電力。

相比之下，我現時居住的第三世界國家，實在令人唏噓。
