Recently, the Ermao conflict has become lively again.
But compared with the year before last, this conflict has a new change, and the EU has the potential to replace the United States and become Ermao's new father, going all out to fight against Damao.
On January 11, the White House said that US financial assistance to Ermao had been suspended.
You say that Ermao can not be in a hurry, but someone is more anxious than Ermao.
On February 1, the European Union held an extraordinary summit and agreed on an additional 50 billion euros in aid for Ermao.
In fact, this aid plan was proposed last year, but it has not been adopted due to Hungary's opposition. Now that the United States has stopped, the EU is in a hurry, and it has signed Hungary's head and continues to freeze Hungary's funds in the EU.
Why does the EU not want to lose so much?
Originally, one of the important purposes of the United States in planning this Ermao conflict was to squeeze the EU dry, and after three years of fighting, the fact is that as the United States planned, it is the EU countries that have lost the most blood. Energy booms, industrial relocation, high inflation, and an influx of refugees ......The EU now faces a whole host of thorny problems.
But instead of rushing to quell the conflict, the EU did not hesitate to take out its own money to fight with Da Mao, which is the rhythm of jumping into it knowing that there is a fire pit.
Two days ago, the German newspaper ** released a leaked document of the German Ministry of Defense, which showed that German and European leaders are preparing for a war with Da Mao.
Seeing such an EU, the United States will definitely laugh out loud.
But if we take on the role of the EU, we will find that once we fall into the "prisoner's dilemma", it is indeed difficult to get out easily.
To put it simply, there are two reasons why the EU wants to fight Da Mao at any cost.
One is that the fear of Da Mao has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow for many years. Once the geographical barrier of Ermao is lost, the EU will be exposed to the front of Da Mao, trembling;
The second is that under the leadership of the United States, the EU can get cheap energy from Da Mao. Although the meat is not edible, the soup can still be drunk. But now that Da Mao has flipped the table, not only will he not give you cheap energy, but the financial and monetary system will be cut off. The EU can't even drink the soup now.
Therefore, in order to ensure their own safety and still be able to drink that bowl of soup, the EU is willing to cut all its parts, and it has to go out to do it.
After going through the overall logic of the macro, you will find that when someone "flips the table" and breaks the existing game rules, not only the dealer can't stand it, but the casino horse boy and broker can't stand it either.
Especially when the "flipping table" wants to play with life, the final outcome can only be that everyone plays with their lives and plays a big game.
Some time ago,"No matter how much progress is made in electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, and hydrogen vehicles will still account for 70% of market sales," said Akio Toyoda. ”
His implication is that electric vehicles only have a 30% market share at most.
Then Musk only sent one word "sigh", which means sigh, disappointment.
Toyota's global sales reached a record 1,123 last year30,000 units, but the sales of electric vehicles will be 1040,000 units, accounting for less than 1%.
Tesla sold 1.81 million vehicles worldwide last year, all of which were electric vehicles, and the Molde Y was the world's best-selling single model.
The data is listed, regardless of whether Tesla wins or Toyota wins, it depends on the perspective of looking at things.
But what made Akio Toyoda jump out and publish this ** is not because Tesla is the one who took the lead in setting off the rules of the traditional automobile business game. Of course, it may have something to do with the recent momentum of the king who understands the king. Not long ago, he said that if he is elected as the next U.S. leader, he will repeal the "Inflation Subsidy Act" of the sleeping king and cancel the U.S. subsidy policy for electric vehicles.
Out of the psychology of reading cool texts, it is easy for us to be more supportive and sympathetic to the dragon slayer boy who "flips the table".
But even the dragon slayer boy has a double standard, and he is afraid that someone will lift his table.
Musk held an earnings report meeting a few days ago, talking about Chinese automobiles, praising our strength, if there are no ** barriers, Chinese cars will dominate the world.
He then went on to say that he doesn't see a clear opportunity to work with Chinese automakers, other than to allow them to use Tesla's supercharging network and open self-driving technology.
We have analyzed in the article "Musk "praises" that the Chinese brand is very strong, in fact, it is a hint that European and American powers continue to restrict Chinese cars", Musk said this to remind major European and American countries to continue to restrict Chinese cars.
The reason is that Tesla wants to become the "Google" of the automotive industry, and let our brand join its "Android" technology ecosystem.
But we didn't do it, but we had to take the road of independence.
From the beginning, the Chinese brand did not plan to get on Tesla's table, which is likely to be much more than Musk's plan was planned. And we rely on ourselves, and we are also developing impressively, which makes him even more uncomfortable.
In the past two years, young people on the Internet generally like to say that "human nature is double standard".
In the past, even if there were double standards, people had to try to disguise themselves as high-sounding. But now, regardless of the state, organizations, and entrepreneurs, they are no longer pretending to be "double standards".
Truth be told, this doesn't bode well, and the world's biggest "double standard" drama is likely to spread all over the world for a whole year. And more and more intense conflicts and confrontations will follow.
