It's clear! Foreign media have noticed that this is an unusual signal! On July 6, the People's Daily published an article commenting that the weapons and equipment displayed during the military parade held on September 3rd to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan is a sign of change. Some netizens once said, "In the past, our army defeated the enemy with fewer steel but more spirit," but now we have more steel, more spirit, and stronger bones.

The People's Daily stated directly that this military parade showcases all domestically produced main combat equipment currently in service, representing the concentrated display of the PLA's system combat capabilities, new domain and quality combat forces, and strategic deterrence capabilities. The equipment displayed includes high-tech combat forces such as unmanned intelligence and hypersonic. Obviously, after we have given such a definition to the September 3rd military parade, foreign media clearly feel that it is unusual.

"The concentrated display of strategic deterrence capabilities" is obviously significant. Why do foreign media pay attention to our domestic reports? Because foreign media are also closely watching which military equipment we will display. A foreign netizen said that China is no longer concealing its strength, because they have realized that displaying strength is the best way to deal with challenges.

Another netizen said that China is becoming increasingly confident, and in fact, they have the confidence and ability to do so. Perhaps now only the United States can match China. Of course, we will focus on showcasing our advanced equipment, which may mean that our strategy has undergone a major shift. This shift is that before we were keeping a low profile, now we use deterrence to stop war. It is clear that we are playing with open cards. Revealing our cards can avoid miscalculations and make certain malicious forces give up their evil intentions. Such a revelation is undoubtedly very necessary.
