Latest news from the United States: Trump has increased tariffs on China to 125%, while suspending the implementation of equivalent tariffs on other countries for 90 days. Regarding the current situation, Trump appears very pleased, and the US Treasury Secretary has issued an "ultimate warning" to other countries, telling them that allying with China would be asking for trouble. It is worth noting that just as Trump was so proud, some Japanese bloggers who understand how Chinese people operate have shared their views in the media. A Japanese blogger named Seiji Nishigō wrote an article in a Japanese media outlet, stating that based on China's current approach, it perfectly aligns with an old saying from Sun Tzu's Art of War: "The wise warrior attracts others without being controlled by them." This means: The skilled commander always controls the enemy rather than being controlled by them. China's various moves are exactly what a "wise warrior" would do. Because the whole world has noticed that Trump's every move is now completely influenced by China. This influence is multifaceted, even his policies towards other countries are directly related to China's attitude. As a result, other countries around the globe are bewildered, finding the American president too whimsical and untrustworthy. At the same time, below is a summary of the three characteristics of China as a "wise warrior" demonstrated in this round of exchanges by this Japanese blogger: The first characteristic is that China's counterattack itself has distinct features; it is not only timely but also a multi-faceted combination of measures. For instance, on the afternoon of April 9th, the Chinese State Council released new policies imposing a 50% tariff increase on the US. Meanwhile, multiple departments such as the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism have coordinated efforts. Sanctions on American enterprises were imposed where necessary, controls were enforced, overseas students were reminded, and even travel abroad was considered. This clearly shows that China had prepared various solutions in advance, unlike Trump, who is constantly changing his stance. The second characteristic is that throughout the process, China has maintained strategic depth. Yes, China has said they will "see it through to the end," but unlike the US, they have left themselves room for strategic maneuvering. China has never abandoned cooperation with other countries. For example, on April 10th, the Spanish Prime Minister officially began a visit to China, which could potentially open bridges for cooperation with European countries. Additionally, China remains the largest trading partner of ASEAN and maintains high-level cooperation with over a hundred countries. All of these are China's sources of confidence. The third characteristic is that China has been making breakthroughs in key areas. Unlike American companies' current loss of morale and escalating internal strife at the White House, China's support for advanced enterprises is comprehensive. This alone ensures China's invincibility in the future. Alas, even the Japanese have recognized these critical points, yet Trump remains trapped in self-delusion. Recently, former US Secretary of State Blinken has spoken out, stating: "Trump's methods toward China have not worked, and China will not compromise." It seems that after years of clashing with China, Blinken has finally become much clearer post-retirement and dares to speak the truth. Next, China will inevitably respond to America's 125% tariff increase, and against such erratic Trump, the Chinese remain undaunted.
