The “New Order” from a Chinese Perspective

summary:

Why does China employ a “destructive strategy” to gain (seize) economic benefits? Will this “destructive strategy” result in a win-win situation or a total loss? Understanding this issue from the perspective of imperial power and imperial order is a crucial approach. Imperial power and imperial order are closely intertwined not only with China’s current problems but also with universal global issues. China already possesses a complete imperial core. Now is the historical opportune moment to construct China’s outward imperial framework. The imperial core is the foundation for building the outward imperial framework, and the outward imperial framework is essential for maintaining the vitality of the imperial core. Currently, China is in a historical window of opportunity to build its outward imperial framework. Missing this window could plunge China into another 200-year period of economic colonization. For the United States, there are multiple options for rebuilding the imperial order. These include rebuilding the North American-European axis, establishing a new North American-European-Russian axis, jointly building a North American-China axis, or retreating to the Americas to exercise the functions of a land-based empire. The North American – China axis is not a priority for the United States. However, China’s priority is forcing the United States to choose this option. Moreover, this priority is substantially beneficial to the long-term interests of the United States, which is the underlying logic behind the United States’ ultimate choice of this option.

Discussion and Summary

The plant-based (productive/endogenous) wealth path focuses on creating wealth through the production process. This path is stable and sustainable, but suffers from high costs and limited efficiency. The animal-based (predatory/exogenous) wealth path focuses on acquiring external wealth. This path is risky and unsustainable. However, the animal-based wealth path is the most efficient way to acquire wealth. Through long-term introspection and self-effort, China has established a powerful “imperial core.” If it does not seize the historical opportunity to establish an external imperial framework to protect this core, China’s imperial core cannot maintain its long-term vitality. If China fails to seize the opportunity to establish a solid external imperial framework, it is essentially handing over the fate of the nation to outsiders, handing the knife that determines the fate of the nation to others. In other words, it is actively making others its prey. A significant factor contributing to the rapid accumulation of public discontent in China in recent years (to find an excuse) is the sluggish growth of endogenous wealth, the depletion of external wealth sources, the pursuit of wealth by secondary power levels, the loss of hope for advancement among the grassroots, the increased demand for wealth redistribution, and the lack of effective wealth redistribution solutions. The grievances accumulated among ordinary Chinese citizens have nearly coalesced into a significant political force. Even a powerful figure like the King of Thailand…

Even the military, with its legally granted superpowers, cannot effectively suppress or destroy the Thaksin family organization and utilize Thai civilian power. China’s heroic families should face this reality and risk. Like the crisis in the United States, only by opening up new tax sources and discovering new wealth creation schemes can the problem be fundamentally solved. Furthermore, finding an outlet for public grievances is also an effective short-term solution to relieve pressure. Unifying Taiwan is not only a short-term solution to relieve pressure, but also a medium-term solution to open up new tax sources, and a long-term solution to building the outward framework of China’s empire. In other words, unifying Taiwan is the golden key to solving all kinds of domestic problems in China!

There may be various opinions or plans regarding the timing of Taiwan’s reunification. From Yeh Chi-chuan’s perspective, 2026 is the best window of opportunity. He believes 2026 has a series of advantages: A) While American reformists are working to de-escalate the war in Ukraine, the war between Europe and Russia cannot be effectively de-escalated, ceasefired, or ended. B) Even if the US works to promote a ceasefire, it will not be able to gather enough political resources to pacify Russia before the end of 2026. C) Before the end of 2026, the US will certainly not be able to overcome its current fiscal and economic crisis, and therefore will not be able to effectively rebuild the “North American-European power axis,” let alone establish a new “North American-European-Russian power axis.”

Based on China’s political cycle, 2027 is practically a difficult year to initiate military action. Even if a unified operation is launched in 2028 or 2029, and the US hasn’t fully overcome its fiscal and economic crises, China will face the following dilemmas: A. De-escalation of hostility between Europe and Russia will diminish China’s political advantage over Europe. B. A decrease in the intensity of the conflict in Ukraine will allow the US, Europe, and Russia to use the guise of negotiating a “US-Europe-Russia” cooperation plan to extract high prices from China. C. Once China’s political advantage over Europe diminishes, regardless of whether Russia or China initiates the proposal to enhance cooperation, China’s gains will inevitably shrink while its costs will inevitably increase. D. Russia will never abandon its pursuit of “European identity,” and any move by Europeans to beckon to Russians can offset China’s massive political investment. E. Whether European or Russian, given equal costs or similar benefits, their instinct is to align themselves with the Americans rather than the Chinese. This is not a matter of culture or morality, but rather a matter of national interest and political ethics.

Similarly, the Chinese also have complex calculations regarding the Americans, Europeans, and Russians. In Ye Qiquan’s calculations, overthrowing the American imperial order was not a priority. China’s priority was to force the Americans to choose the “North American – China axis” option. “Unifying Taiwan and completely closing the eastward security gap for China” was the cornerstone for launching this plan.

In Ye Qiquan’s plan, 2026 is a historic window of opportunity for China. Looking forward to this postponement means increased risks and costs for China. Once the United States overcomes its current fiscal, economic, and political crises, it will have the initiative to rebuild its imperial power structure . If the United States abandons the “North American-China axis,” China may fall into another “economic colonial cycle,” which could last up to 200 years.

If China’s current heroic families lead China to defeat, they will be condemned to the pillory of history. If they accomplish great feats, these families will become divine families of China and be blessed for eternity.
