Video: Is this the future of naval air power? China launches world's first drone aircraft carrier. 這是海軍航空兵的未來嗎？中國下水了世界上第一艘無人機航空母艦. In a potentially major shift in force projection and naval doctrine, China has built what analysts believe is the world's first aircraft carrier for drones. According to naval experts, the traditional aircraft carrier may already be obsolete, chiefly because of its staggering cost and its vulnerability. Drone carriers, by contrast, would be much smaller, faster, far less expensive, and require just a fraction of the crew. Yet they will still project power far beyond a nation's borders. 分析家認為，中國建造了世界上第一艘無人機航空母艦，這可能是兵力投送和海軍理論的重大轉變。 海軍專家表示，傳統的航空母艦可能已經過時了，主要是因為其成本驚人且脆弱。 相較之下，無人機航母會更小、更快、更便宜，只需要一小部分機組人員。 然而，他們仍將力量投射到遠遠超出國家邊界的地方.

Dedollarization & Deeuro to accelerate against thieves & robbers video: As EU plans to use seized Russian funds to buy arms for Ukraine, China moves billions out of Europe 去美元化和去歐元必須加速打擊小偷和強盜! 歐盟計畫利用扣押的俄羅斯資金為烏克蘭購買武器，中國將數十億美元撤出歐洲 The EU and G7 are considering a US-backed plan that will use the interest income on Russia's frozen bank reserves to buy weapons for the Ukraine. There is about $300 billion in Russian assets that are frozen in EU member banks. This money is earning interest, at about $3.6 billion per year. Officials are crafting plans to direct, instead, this interest to provide weapons and other aid to the Ukraine. An even more ambitious plan is being considered, which will use the interest to collateralize a large bond offering of between $40-$50 billion, to be repaid with the interest income on the seized funds. An announcement that China liquidated over $50 billion of US Treasury bonds in just the first quarter of 2024 shocked capital markets. These funds were held in custody by banks in Belgium. The sales included large tranches of US government bonds and housing agency debt. Also surprising is that China almost certainly realized losses on the sales, as interest rates have risen since their purchase of them. Were the sales of the Belgian-custodied bonds motivated by China's fear of having assets similarly frozen and weaponized? Under these new precedents in the Western banking system, who in the future will be making claims against sovereign depositors' assets? 歐盟和七國集團正在考慮一項美國支持的計劃，該計劃將利用俄羅斯凍結的銀行儲備的利息收入為烏克蘭購買武器。 歐盟成員國銀行中約有3000億美元的俄羅斯資產被凍結。 這筆錢正在賺取利息，每年約 36 億美元。 官員們正在製定計劃，以引導這種向烏克蘭提供武器和其他援助的興趣。 一項更雄心勃勃的計劃正在考慮中，該計劃將使用利息來抵押 40 至 500 億美元的大型債券發行，並用扣押資金的利息收入進行償還。 中國宣佈光在2024年第一季就清算了超過500億美元的美國國債，震驚了資本市場。 這些資金由比利時的銀行保管。 此次出售包括大量美國政府債券和住房機構債務。 同樣令人驚訝的是，中國幾乎肯定會在銷售上遭受損失，因為自購買這些產品以來利率已經上升。 出售比利時託管的債券是否是因為中國擔心資產同樣被凍結和武器化？ 根據西方銀行體系的這些新先例，未來誰會對主權存戶的資產提出債權？

HK breakfast video: one breakfast at McDoxxxd in Hawai’i without fresh eggs, frozen bacon & hash brown & coffee cost US$14. Two excess capacity HK breakfast cost only US$11.00 serves inside a clean air conditioning restaurant by servers and you pay no tips or taxes. The world loves excessive capacity except US & EU because they are unable to compete just like the EV, therefore they could overcharged Americans but unable to compete in the real world due to overpriced. 香港早餐: 一份夏威夷McDoxxxd的早餐，沒有新鮮雞蛋、冷藏培根、薯餅和無味淡咖啡，價格為14美元。在香港兩份產能過剩港式早餐僅需 11.00 美元，由服務員在乾淨的空調餐廳內提供，無需支付小費或稅費。世界都喜歡產能過剩，除了美國和歐盟，因為他們不須要競爭被美國政府保護，所以可以向客戶收取過高的費用，就像電動汔車一樣，所以今天美國企業無法與現實世界競爭!

Video: 6th day in HK, beautiful sunrise Victoria Harbour view.

Video: With China and the Federal Reserve dumping Treasury bonds, yields will soar as US investors step in 隨著中國和聯準會拋售國債，美國投資者介入，殖利率將飆升 China and the Federal Reserve were two of the largest buyers of Treasury bonds since 2010. Now both China and the Fed are selling Treasuries: in China's case to reduce their risk of US dollar holdings, and in the Fed's, to rein in runaway inflation that resulted from decades of Fed policy error. Japan is the largest foreign holder of US government debt. However Japan now runs chronic trade surpluses, instead of deficits, and have also scaled back their Treasury holdings. The US government will be rolling over $8 trillion in maturing paper in 2024, and will need to finance an additional $3 trillion in new deficit spending. Almost all this new issuance will be absorbed by US investors, who will demand far higher yields to compensate for higher inflation and opportunity cost. 自2010年以來，中國和聯準會是美國國債的最大買家。幾十年來政策錯誤的結果。 日本是美國政府債務的最大外國持有者。 然而，日本現在長期存在貿易順差，而不是赤字，也縮減了其國債持有量。 美國政府將在 2024 年將超過 8 兆美元的到期票據展期，並需要為額外的 3 兆美元的新赤字支出提供資金。 幾乎所有新發行的債券都將被美國投資者吸收，他們將要求更高的收益率，以補償更高的通膨和機會成本

Richard: thanks for the lovely dinner at the Hong Kong Jockey Club and the valuable Hong Kong & China updates, hope you enjoy the Opus One Wine, it is one of the best from California. I cannot agreed with you more that Hong Kong is where the action is. My grandfather and father used to tells us HK is 一個福地 and they are right. It is also where my heart belongs. We are looking forward seeing you again in November or sooner.

The US again proves hostile to new manufacturing video: friends or foes they are not welcomed in America, lessons from CATL, world's biggest battery maker 美國再次對新製造業表現出敵意：無論是朋友還是敵人，他們在美國都不受歡迎，全球最大電池製造商寧德時代的教訓 CATL is the world's largest maker of lithium-ion batteries, with over 30% of the global market. They have supply contracts with Ford Motor to produce EV batteries for Ford's new line of electric Mustang SUV's and Lightning pickups. CATL, a Chinese manufacturer, hoped to build a factory in the US, but gave up. The United States is increasingly viewed as hostile to foreign manufacturing investment, as recent headlines in mining, minerals processing, automaking, chemicals, and semiconductor manufacturing confirm. CATL instead will invest billions of dollars for new facilities in Bolivia, Germany, and Hungary, among other places. For the US, CATL will shift to a tech licensing scheme, through which Ford and others will pay CATL for each battery they produce using CATL's proprietary technology. Negotiations are also underway with Tesla, who already uses CATL batteries in their vehicles for other markets. 寧德時代是全球最大的鋰離子電池製造商，擁有全球30%以上的市場份額。 他們與福特汽車公司簽訂了供應合同，為福特新系列電動野馬 SUV 和 Lightning 皮卡生產電動車電池。 中國製造商寧德時代曾希望在美國建廠，但最終放棄了。 正如最近採礦、礦物加工、汽車製造、化學品和半導體製造領域的頭條新聞所證實的那樣，美國越來越被視為對外國製造業投資懷有敵意。 相反，寧德時代將在玻利維亞、德國和匈牙利等地投資數十億美元建設新工廠。 對於美國，寧德時代將轉向技術許可計劃，福特和其他公司將透過該計劃向寧德時代支付他們使用寧德時代專有技術生產的每個電池的費用。 與特斯拉的談判也在進行中，特斯拉已經在其他市場的車輛中使用寧德時代的電池。

Hong Kong excess capacity report day 2 video: We visit this Won Ton Noodle place every time in HK at 50% less than SF and taste better. We visited building contractor friend in Tsuen Wan where we are working on a project, you don’t find Chinese contractors like them in SF or Hawai’i, everything custom made at 50% less than US. We hosted a baby pig dinner with relatives for 8 at US$250 65% less than SF or Hawai’i and taste far better than those in US, no tax or tips required which save you another 30%. The excess capacity is actually improved the living standards of the average Hong Kong citizens. For Chinese earning US$, the spending power is 2-4x better than in the US. We took a taxi in Tsuen Wen, the driver asked where we came from, we told him from US. He said his kids left US after college, US no longer safe with drugs, gun violence, police brutality and China haters. I asked how he know, he said he watch it on YouTube, WeChat and TitTok everyday. I asked I thought young kids love America. He said are you kidding all his kids classmates and friends came back to HK making good money. I asked what did they studied. He said son studies computer science and daughter electrical engineer. It was a short 10 minutes ride. We end our conversation by wishing each others the very best. If you live in US, US Gov’t made excess capacity such a bad thing but in reality is just the opposite. Like my father and grandfather told us, don’t believe what people say, be there to find out yourself. 產能過剩香港報告第二天: 我們每次在香港都會去這家餛飩麵店，價格比美國便宜50% 而且美國吃不到的美味. 拜訪荃灣的建築承包商朋友，我們要在香港做一個項目，你找不到像他們這樣的中國人承包商在舊金山或夏威夷，所有裝修都是度身訂造都比美國便宜 50%。 我們請香港親人共8 個人的小豬晚餐，價格比舊金山或夏威夷便宜 65% 以上，而且味道比美國的好得多，無需繳稅或小費，又節省了 30%。產能過剩其實是提高了香港普通市民的生活水準。對於住在國外賺美元的中國人來說，消費能力是美國的 2-4 倍。我們在荃灣搭計程車，司機問我們從哪裡來，我們告訴他從美國來。他說，他的孩子們大學畢業後離開了美國，美國不再安全，充滿毒品、槍支暴力、警察暴行和仇恨中國的人。我問他怎麼知道的，他說他每天都在YouTube、微信和TitTok上看。我問不是年輕人都喜歡美國嗎? 他說我一定是在開玩笑吧，他的孩子同學和朋友都回到香港賺更多錢。我問他們學什麼。他說兒子學習電腦科學，女兒是電機工程師。車程短短 10 分鐘。我們以互相祝福來結束我們的談話。如果你住在美國，美國政府把產能過剩說成是一件壞事，但實際上卻恰恰相反。就像我的父親和祖父告訴我們的那樣，不要相信別人所說的話，要親自去體驗，他們的智慧幫助了蔡家近一百名成員.

Excess capacity in creating homeless and prison populations. 我們在香港和美國人談論中美的產能過剩問題, 他們說美國也有產能過剩，例如向加薩婦女兒童投放大規模殺傷性的產能過剩武器，印鈔美元的產能過剩，美國產能過剩成為世界上最大的龐氏騙局幕後黑手. 推卸責任來妖魔化他人的能力也是產能過剩，產能過剩造成地增加無家可歸者和監獄人口.

The early days Americans like to bring their attorneys and 100 pages contracts to China. They had expected to come in late night, go to the office tomorrow made the presentation and close the deals. How were they disappointed that Chinese counterparts want to spend 1-2 days to get to know each others including their families with absolutely no business discussions at all. 早期美國人喜歡把律師和100頁的合約帶到中國。他們原本預計會在深夜到達中國，明天去辦公室進行推廣並完成交易。但他們的中國主管卻想要花一到兩天的時間來了解彼此（包括他們的家人）而完全不討論任何業務討論，美方代表或主管感到多麼失望.
