Why China ordered its automakers to STOP plans for factories in Europe

You are speaking in general, this doesn't apply for all EU countries you know.

china was always good to every country in the world, they don't have any agenda, USA doesn't like that they want the power for themselves, this is not new, the war on communication and computing was on, Huawei sanctions and other companies, the 3nm technology also they want it to be just USA and other stuff, they are the devil.

You mentioned that you own a Chinese EV. Was it sponsored or did you purchase it?

Wheres the video about your G6?

China should invest in BRICS nations or those around the world and avoid the West. Bringing cheaper cars in Africa, Asia and South America is much better than the "civilized world". Remember that the west is just 1 billion people and their wealth is based on printing paper. People are still impressed by these papers like indians in the USA were amased by some coloured glass, trading gold and land for nothing.

Quite wise move. It's likely Europe will reverse ban on ICE cars and this move would leave chinese factories in the middle of nowhere.

Biden started this. Weaponise currency, industry, media and everything. It was a weak hand, now they're finding out where the power lies.

China is asking Europe - do you want to access our 1.4 billion consumers or do you want to sell to 345 million Americans?

As much as Americans might be richer than the Chinese, a consumer at most would buy 2-3 cars and not all are European brands given that there are American and Japanese brands competing for the wallet.

Should encourage walking then🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Van der lier f'd Germany as defense minister and now is f'ing Germany and Europe as EU head

China has had tarrifs on import vehicules since they opened their market to foreign trade, and they've had tarifs on almost anything imported ( I even had to pay tarrifs on a personnal jacket I shipped back to Chin while travelling abroad as the weather was a lot warmer than expected ) . That's why makers have all set up factories in Chine to avoid these tarrifs. I don't understand what the problem is if europe does that to their makers.

I can't believe it. They're going to eat us alive.

They ordered to step back because they know Europe is lost.😂😂

Maybe they are tired of stupid rules ?

USA will fill all the gaps.

No worries

China will dominate all autos in Europe …. Not good if they let China in

China supports Russia in the war!. This war would be over if China stopped buying Russia n oil

Europe can take deals with the enemy

EU try to be loyal to US to play tough on chinese EV by having higher import tax. You wanna play tough to China for no reason, breaking the free trade system. Ok then China counter it that is all. China is not juat heavy on export they import a lot of stuff as well. Good luck to the EU for such a short term view and irrational decision

Its crazy that EU consumer win if China wins their negotiations. I guess thats cuz their governments don't care about the populace, only their monopolies profits huh?

Nah.... The real threat is the people of China being smart enough to not overpay German cars anymore.

USA and its dog EU give China no other choice. If China doesn't react to the West's economic warfare against China, then it will only signal to the West that they can do to China whatever they want and get away with it without bigger consequences. China is just doing the rational thing here.

I was working more over two decades for EU automotive business and cal tell you the guys have surpassed us at all mesaures meanwhile and we can compete not no more with them... Just check this platfor how far they are ahed of usand still pacing away of us at all areas with their unique solutions.... And MBAs strungeld EU-Automotive business have no choice ask the governance for help to tover their incompetence... It may help for time beeing but not at long term, honestly.... In europe the slang was "go west" and meanwhile the experts go either east or just be boucgt by clever chinese for the purpose...

Maybe Europe will now wake up to the massive threat that China presents. In 2020, China bullied Australia by imposing 14 billion dollars of tarrifs on random goods because it felt hurt. Wake up. China does not play by WTO rules.

Who wants to buy an EV? All EV makers face heavy losses as customers are non-existant. Why build more factories in the EU when EV’s are clearly a dead end?

See what they do to Russian businesses after Ukraine war. China not going to be stupid enough to invest in potential enemy.

Isn't this the issue, the Chinese government can stop and dictate to BYD and other Chinese companies where they can or can't invest in. So essentially the EU companies aren't competing with another company. Rather they are competing against China.

For 10k GBP I can get a better car in China than a BMW M3 in Europe.

I think this has to with the new BRIC economy

Once, the Europeans were colonial masters, but now they are lapdogs of the US and when the US said shoot your foot, they ask, which one?

I am from EU and i say f*ck the EU. They do not come to terms. Chinese have other markets where they could expand. Russia, Africa, Latin America. They can kick EU from these markets very easily. EU will have massive manufacturing costs because of the energy and raw materials that their access was halted from Russian markets.

EU: We can block you, we can earn your money, you cannot block us, you are not allowed to earn our money.....


Well that's so fair 😂😂😂

Europe has dodged a bullet for sure, since this strategic move is also related to China's plans to attack Taiwan. We don't need to fund any further autocrats or autocracies.

China needs to cancel it and just export cars to Europe.

😩🥹😫😲🫣🤫🤔🥺

Why would Chinese even thinking to invest in any property on the EU soil which could be sized at any given moment?

China don't hold all the cards mate the only reason China's ev market is growing is because of European climate goals. South America and Africa and big parts of asia don't buy electric cars for obvious reasons. If European countries stop putting pressure on their citizens to buy electric cars then China would be in a bad place because they can make a lot of things but combustion engines are not one of them

no, EU is threatening China, not the other way around.

First of all Chinese cars are plastic. European cars became plastic too. Hence there is no real point to go buy a Benz anymore when you buy recycled platic and recycled aluminum cans. Go buy a chinese car. In any case these cars will become useless after their battery has lost 30-40%. People who own them they will have to scrap them because nobody is going to buy something that needs 15-20k in order to replace the batteries.

This is a Christmas present well in advance, I hope we dont see more china cars in Europe, this is going to be a reptition of what happened to diesel cars, Thank God for that 🙂

I find some people in the comments absolutely delussional. Do you people not understand that without govt subsidies chinese EVs should be at least twice as expensive? Dafuq are you on about?

China should just ban EU cars, they can go pound sand.

China is stepping up for a win win solution, China is not threathening anybody, it makes business sense for a fair deals. In business it is a two ways traffic, not one way only😊😊😊

Sadly, this is one of your instances of blindly glorifying your false idols. Whether it's the wildly incompetent Herbert Diess or Maoist Xi China. China is not about EVs specifically. China is about the declared intent of Xi to bring down western civilisation, and to treat exports like Xi China treats anything - as a open or covert warfare measure. You say "The Western Media says (China) is pressuring it's Automakers - it doesn't work that way." Rather sounds to me that you don't want to understand anything about China. It absolutely works that way. In China there are laws requiring companies to obey anything ordered by a government official. The fact that in practice this sometimes works in circuitous routes may obscure the basics - it doesn't change them. Seriously now - you are saying yourself that "this directive isn't mandatory". Yet you're bulding this entire video on the assumption that it IS effectively mandatory. Otherwise, what is the story here?

Haaaaa!aaaaaa!!!!!!

I am neither living in Europe nor China. I own a few cars, a GLE450 , a vw and 2 Japanese made cars. If people like me is considering to buy the Chinese made cars, means the tradiitinal car manufacturers are losing the battle.

By "Europe" im assuming you mean mostly Germany?

Actualy ,right now Chinese build in Hungary one of the biggest automaking hub in Europe,just to avoid tarrifs,so wtf are u talking about?

its not a car
