What absolute delusion. You do that when you’re negotiating from a position of power, not when you are in salvage mode. And you definitely don’t advertise it.
Based. I am in favor of applying reciprocity where the other side doesn’t want to play fair.
I would apply this on more areas, even. Your autocracy wants to run media in EU to influence our people? Sure, AJ, Tiktok, come in. But only if you let our media do the same in your country.
For now we are still a peer for China and the US and have a position of (economic and cultural, soft) power over most other states. That won’t be the case forever. We should wield it before we get eclipsed fully.
Edit: typo
I can somewhat agree with this. It’s basically what China already does to foreign investments
Value-add and local employment should be a given
No brainer.
Do to chinese greenfield investment what they did to Europe from the 1990s to the 2010s.
Capital partnership with European share majority
Tech transfers
This is the only way to answer the constant trade dumping offensive that China undertakes to export its agregate demand and overcapacity problems in the rest of the world.
Force joint ventures + tech transfers
Cool. Any stocks I should look into?
A little late, isnt it?
It should be done but the strength of Chinese manufacturing is not tech know-hows, not yet anyway. It’s market scale and manufacturing efficiency.
China combined forced tech transfers with total espionage to make sure that they’re not fed incomplete or deliberately wrong information.
The EU would need to do the same.
Besides, the tech is just part of the equation. The ability to build very cheaply at scale is far more important.
Effectively, the EU are negotiating the terms of their surrender.
It won’t work LOL.
That strategy worked for China back then because China has the world’s largest emerging middle class that just got rich recently and have yet to enjoy the niceties of modern urban life. Chinese market was/is basically a giant but barren untapped stream of potential revenue, and whoever got there first reap the most benefits and can squeeze out late-coming competitors. That is why companies rushed into China and eagerly accept whatever terms China set for them, because the potential benefits are just too big, too tempting, and FAR outweigh any and all downsides.
Europe…is an already developed continent with its potentials spent and exhausted. It is full of long-entrenched, old-money controlled players and interests, stagnate economy, shrinking and struggling middle class, flooded with migrants/refugees and societal problems, and facing prospects of war. It is simply INCAPABLE of playing the same game as China because it doesn’t have the same chips China has. Forcibly doing so will just scare away potential investors because the downsides far outweigh the benefits and there isn’t much money to be made.
If Chinese companies want to tap into emerging middle class for revenue they go to Africa, or Southeast Asia. There is no point selling yourself out for a dry well when there are massive underground water reservoirs elsewhere.
