Unexpectedly, the achieved results are so significant! The concessions made by the United States exceeded expectations! According to our news release, the United States has made considerable concessions in three areas. First, the 20% tariff on fentanyl has been reduced to 10%, and the 24% reciprocal tariffs imposed on Chinese goods will continue to be suspended for one year. Second, the 50% penetration rule is also suspended for one year. Third, the U.S. Section 301 investigation measures against the shipbuilding industry have also been suspended for one year.
If this agreement is followed, the United States would return to the situation before April 9th, that is, the actual tariffs the United States has imposed on us in this round of trade war might only be 10%, which is better than the treatment received by American allies such as Japan and the United Kingdom. Since the United States has made considerable concessions, we have also made concessions in several areas for the United States.
The areas where we have made concessions include increasing the import of American agricultural products, enhancing cooperation on issues such as fentanyl, and properly resolving the TikTok-related issues. Frankly speaking, the fact that China and the United States have reached such a consensus is a big step forward for both sides to move in the same direction. After the meeting between China and the United States, Trump also announced that he would visit China next year, which makes us look forward to Trump's visit to China.
This time, the meeting between China and the United States discussed many issues, but the Taiwan issue, which we are very concerned about, was not discussed. Trump stated that they did not discuss the Taiwan issue, and our news release also did not mention the Taiwan issue, which is very rare. We believe that the two sides must have discussed the Taiwan issue during this meeting. Undoubtedly, now the focus will be on how well the United States implements this consensus.
