The second round of Sino-US negotiations will be held in London soon. The General Administration of Customs of China also released four big data before the negotiations: 1. Exports to ASEAN increased by 16.9%; 2. Exports to the EU increased by 13.7%; 3. Exports to Africa increased by 35.3%; 4. Exports to the five Central Asian countries increased by 8.8%.
The data has been put on the table, which is enough to show that since Trump implemented the tariff war on April 2, China's deployments in all directions around the world have been effective, and Chinese manufacturing has withstood the pressure.
I want me to say that we are really calm and we are just rushing to release these data before the second round of negotiations. This is undoubtedly telling the US negotiating delegation: China's hard power is here. When you make the conditions in the negotiations, you must first consider whether China will agree.
Trump himself attaches great importance to this negotiation. A few days ago, when asked about the mutual tearing with Musk on Air Force One, he made it clear that he had no mind at all now and his mind was full of China. In other words, Trump understands that reaching an agreement with China is more important and more urgent than other domestic affairs.
Trump's use of tariffs to threaten China is equivalent to declaring bankruptcy. Then, there is only one last chip left in his hand: the chip problem. And China must let him take the initiative and willingly hand over this chip.
On May 13, at the order of Trump, the U.S. Department of Commerce ordered to strengthen the regulation of Chinese chips. Even the US side clamors that using Huawei's "Ascend" series chips anywhere in the world violates relevant US regulations and will be punished.
In order to deal with this matter, China subsequently announced an "unprecedented" countermeasures. China reminds more than 190 countries around the world that if any organization or individual dares to implement this US measure, it will violate relevant regulations on China's opposition to foreign sanctions laws and will be held accountable by China for relevant legal responsibilities.
From the current situation, China's countermeasures are effective, and there is no major market fluctuation in China's related chips. Of course, this also indirectly shows that the Trump administration's various policies are all fierce, and it is actually quite difficult to implement them.
So in this second round of negotiations, China must find a way to make the US delegation relax against China on chips, and we have to make them willingly let go this time. After all, the pressure on the Trump administration is unprecedented: 1. First of all, it is pressure from rare earths. At present, in addition to the U.S. civilian products field, it also includes the military field. US media said that the sixth-generation F-47 project was jammed due to rare earth problems.
2. Secondly, Trump is facing a concentrated outbreak of various domestic contradictions. From the perspective of performance, the immigration issue in the past few days has nothing to do with its global "reciprocal tariff" policy, but if you look closely at the pictures and videos of the riots, you will find that there are many "zero yuan purchases" and non-immigrant smashing incidents, which is directly related to the trough of the US economy.
3. Once again, the allies of the United States are waiting for Trump to make an informed choice. Japan, South Korea and the EU are all looking forward to a deal between China and the United States to end this tariff farce, and their attitudes are also pressured on Trump.
To sum up, let us continue to pay attention to what the results will be in the second round of negotiations. At the same time, the author also reminds all Chinese netizens not to worry. If Trump still wants to continue this war without gunpowder, then China has a backup plan, so that we can deal with the US side patiently to the end.
