For China, to invade Taiwan, it's a sheer disaster.

I cannot imagine Europe, United States would continue to do any business with China.

There is something very curious about Chinese political mentality.

It feels insecure.

Paranoia is beginning to surface. There seems to be an unnatural

level of purges in the Chinese military. And it is really something very striking and unprecedented.

Why do you think China choose Russia over Europe?

It is for ideology and politics.

There's absolutely zero economic reason to go with Russia.

At the expense of relationship with Europe, Russia, of all the countries I can think of in the world, has been the most brutal

to China. And yet, the Chinese political leadership has this softness for Russia, which is really, really

unbelievable.

Where are we with the AI race between the United States and China?

China didn't come up with the large language models, but China has become incredibly efficient,

scaling the signs into commercial products. I think this is where we should be very humble

to recognize where we have fallen short, And the Trump administration is not doing that.

You were born in China, and yet you are constantly critical of this place. Are you worried about your

safety? Just before the pandemic, there was a degree of tolerance of points of views and criticisms

that we no longer have today, sadly speaking.

Do I worry about myself?

Well, I live and work in the United States, so there's not that kind of threat.

I worry about China, not because it is not a democracy, but because it is moving backward.
