This is John Bachelor, conversation with my good colleague Chris Regal, CEO of scholar.com, doing

business on all the major continents with digital signage for the retail space dealing with China and how China is responding to the news

of tariffs by the United States, by Canada, by Europe.

And Chris is very blunt about it.

What he hears through his colleagues in mainland China.

Tariffs are an old-fashioned way of dealing with unfair practices.

In this instance, the word is dumping.

Here's Chris Regal.

On China's response, the China manufacturing, China business community communities response to tariffs that begin about

EVs but can quickly move to all parts of the economy, not only digital, not only tech, but all parts China is taking advantage of people who want the

best price more of this tonight absolutely petrified of the tariffs and now not only are you seeing both Biden or

Trump speak of larger Chinese tariffs in the new year you're seeing Miss Vanderline the EU starting to address

tariffs on China not specifically on EVs but on the basis of unfair

competition to European companies so I think globally the US and the EU is being two of the

larger market drivers there is an increased focus on tariffs and trying to level

that playing field.
