Huawei is truly finished this time. I can only say, in these two years, it might be completely harvested to nothing by Xi Jinping. The CCP officials, four joint institutions, along with People’s Daily, officially set the tone today: Huawei is finished. The big plot twist didn't stand on Huawei's side, but harshly slammed Huawei instead. It seems Huawei is really going to be abandoned by Xi Jinping, and then harvested to make up for fiscal revenue, because everyone knows about China's economy. So this time it's very hilarious. And this year, what made Huawei—China's tech pride—most embarrassed wasn't U.S. sanctions, nor Apple, nor Taiwanese spreading rumors again, nor TSMC smashing it again, but three things: one is a bamboo cicada toy worth only a few cents or a couple of yuan, one is a public toilet sign—ah right, this is also very strange, I'll explain to you later—and now plus two days ago when the brake pedals of Huawei's cars completely snapped, all three tested cars snapped. That time with the bamboo cicada, we all made videos about it. Everyone took that to mock Huawei's boss and parody related videos about him. And that time, as expected, Huawei had an 'accident' again: a massive takedown of mocking videos, right? In the end it ended up unsettled, turning into a crazy movement across the entire Chinese-speaking sphere. The more they suppressed it, the more popular it got, and even the sales of the traditional toy bamboo cicada were pushed to the center of the storm by Huawei.
The second thing that also made us Taiwanese feel baffled: near the Shanghai Huawei flagship store, there is a sign—what was it called?—'Public Toilet, 450 meters ahead'. Such a municipal government sign was right there, right? And taking a photo from a certain angle looking up, it looked like this public toilet sign was pointing directly at Huawei, implying Huawei is a public toilet. As a result, this news blew up on the Chinese internet, becoming a super popular check-in spot. Within a week, this sign was removed by the Shanghai Municipal Government. So does Huawei have a huge relationship and deep ties with the Party? Absolutely. Back then, bringing Meng Wanzhou back took the effort of the entire nation, seeing off this 'daughter of the people' and hero, right? Now, the four CCP joint official media actually harshly criticized it. So this shows an omen: no matter how good your relationship with Xi Jinping or the CCP Central Committee was in the past, when he runs out of money and needs your head to serve his purpose, you must yield it. Accompanying a sovereign is like accompanying a tiger—there are no permanent friends, right?
This is the most critical topic to discuss today, the biggest issue trending across China, and one that even other countries are starting to debate because Huawei's cars might be exported. Fortunately, Taiwan did not yield to the demands of people like Guan Chang or Cheng Li-chun to import Huawei cars; otherwise, I can imagine the brake pedals snapping every single day, leading to endless accidents, and then they would blame our DPP central government—it would be absurd, right? Recently, the Chinese-speaking world has been talking about this Huawei AITO V800, priced between 700,000 and over 1 million RMB—which, converted, is nearly 4 million NTD. I believe everyone knows that at this price point, you could buy a Tesla, a BMW X5, or even an X6. A well-known Chinese automotive media outlet, Dongchedi, bought three of these 'super' Huawei cars and conducted a continuous braking test from 100 km/h to 0 on a closed track. The result? The pedal brackets on all three cars snapped in the exact same spot. Furthermore, the brake pedal wasn't even made of metal; it was made of reinforced engineering plastic. My own X5 has metal pedals that wouldn't break no matter how hard you stomp on them, let alone other car models—even if you get into a Toyota, you couldn't break it like that.
Of course, Huawei claims that this engineering plastic, some kind of glass fiber, is perfectly fine for car manufacturing. You are right, because Dongchedi also tested other Chinese car brands that used similar structures, and they didn't have any issues—only Huawei did. If you are going to replace the original metal with this new, high-tech plastic glass pedal, you should ensure it can withstand the force that a metal pedal is supposed to handle, right? Even the Little Pinks who support Huawei can't afford to buy one—why? Because how can you buy it on a monthly salary of 3,000 RMB? Is it sarcasm? But the Huawei fanatics couldn't accept it at all. Some even went to Huawei stores to 'pay tribute,' holding signs claiming that Dongchedi and everyone on the internet criticizing this Huawei car are 'foreign forces,' Japanese, or Taiwanese independence activists. The funniest part is that the Dongchedi tester is named Dongmen Jiannan. All the Little Pinks and Huawei fanatics saw the name 'Dongmen Jiannan' and immediately declared he must be Japanese, accusing them of finding a Japanese tester to smear Huawei, the pride of China. However, it seems the People's Daily and the Xi Jinping central leadership no longer consider Huawei the pride of the nation. Moreover, Dongchedi specifically explained that this person named Dongmen Jiannan is of Han ethnicity, and 'Dongmen' is a Chinese compound surname. Following that logic, people with surnames like Sima, Shangguan, Xiahou, or Ouyang should all be labeled as Japanese by the Little Pinks. One of the most famous writers of the Han Dynasty was Sima Xiangru; perhaps he should also be questioned: 'Do you not love China? Are you Japanese?' Or perhaps China was once part of Japan, and since Sima and Shangguan served as high-ranking officials in the imperial court, we are actually descendants of the Japanese? Heh.
Now, the entire internet is showing off the 'primordial power' of other car models, even using sledgehammers to hit the brakes of other brands, and even that force couldn't break their pedals. You tell me if that's tough enough. It took a truck to pull the brake pedal off. The Little Pinks should at least learn from them and use a large sledgehammer—the kind used to smash walls—to hit the Huawei pedal, and then come back and tell me it won't break. Consequently, a strange phenomenon has emerged in the Chinese automotive industry: a 'hundred-pedal war.' What are they showing off now? A 'hundred-pedal battle.' 'Look, you must buy my car, it's better than Huawei's, it's very safe, the brake pedal won't snap!' What were they comparing before? 'Oh, my car won't pinch your hand,' 'My car has AI intelligence, it has Peng Liyuan's voice, Guan Chang's voice,' 'My electric car has a huge fridge, two tons big,' 'My new electric car has a massive screen, look up and it's all screens, there's a big sofa and even a sauna, it even sprays steam fragrance!' But now, the latest 'black technology' in China is: 'Dear viewers, look, I'm not focusing on those anymore, I'm focusing on the fact that my brake pedal won't break.' Isn't this what everyone cared about over 100 years ago? Truly 'far ahead.' Guan Chang, didn't you rave about how cheap and good Chinese cars are, saying buying one is like buying a luxury mansion, and that Chinese people are even about to develop flying capabilities?
So you see, if they can't even make a brake pedal right, when a heavy rain or typhoon comes and the city floods to the second or third floor, do you think this is just a problem with one brand? Or is it that the social and structural system under the CCP has developed severe structural issues? China's new electric vehicles have come full circle, only to realize that we in Taiwan and people in the West prioritize safety above all else; everything else is just superficial. But if you can't even get the basics right, you aren't 'adding flowers to the brocade,' you are just 'sticking a fresh flower into cow dung.' Perhaps this Dongchedi tester really did kick open a new exam question for the Chinese automotive industry. A few days ago, after this Dongchedi video came out and slapped Huawei in the face, Huawei started by banning all Huawei phones from opening that video. But that wasn't enough, because you could still open the Huawei crash video on an iPhone or a Xiaomi phone. So, Huawei escalated its efforts, forcing Douyin, Kuaishou, Bilibili, and Weibo across China to completely censor and delete clips of this crash.
And the most incredible thing about this Maextro car from Huawei this time comes down to their Chinese reading comprehension. Eh, what did their official response say? "Our design inherently exceeds China's national standards and exceeds industry standards." Yeah, exceeded by how much? Can Chinese people fly that high? But they criticized Dongchedi's test, calling it an extreme, non-standard condition. Yet in the very next sentence, they said, "In order to provide even greater safety assurances, we have decided to optimize the equipment; for models already delivered, we will upgrade them for you for free! For models not yet delivered, we will postpone delivery and directly upgrade them for you for free." What does this translate to in plain language? It means: "Dongchedi braked maliciously, tested maliciously, maliciously drove the car to 100 km/h, and then maliciously slammed on the brakes under extreme conditions. But out of our kindness and goodwill, we are upgrading it for you." To put it bluntly, in Taiwan, isn't driving at 100 on the highway completely normal? Under such conditions, when uncontrollable factors suddenly appear ahead, everyone slams on the brakes. Hard braking or sudden events happen occasionally. Even if the probability is low, it still happens, and you have to step hard on the brake. And in this situation, your brake breaks off—could Taiwanese people accept that? Fortunately, Huawei cars haven't entered Taiwan. So let me ask: if there was nothing wrong with those older versions of Huawei cars, why are you offering a free upgrade?
Many people claim that exceeding the CCP's national standard definition somehow makes you invincible under heaven. Is that really the case? For instance, let's look back a few months ago at the benzene-to-toluene ratio. In China, having a benzene-to-toluene ratio above 10 still allows a D rating, right? In Taiwan, exceeding 2 already gives you a D. So with standards like that, whose standard is actually better? It's like a parody video. Today, you are marketing yourself with a price tag of three to four million; then you need to show us that you're at the level of a Harvard bachelor's degree—that your English is great, that you're proficient in everything, that you even graduated from Harvard Law School, so your legal expertise should be outstanding too. Yet when someone tests you, not only is your English completely broken, you give irrelevant answers—answering B when asked about A—and end up fumbling like Mayor Chiang Wan-an. And then you tell me, "Well, at least I know how to converse in English and can successfully order a meal." You marketed yourself as a Harvard bachelor's and doctorate graduate! Who was asking whether you could use basic conversation to order food from a waiter? Do you all get what I mean? That's why Huawei's stores specifically emphasized one sentence this time: "This is not a recall; this is a free upgrade." Why do they say that? Because it carries legal ramifications. If they call it a recall, it means admitting they were wrong, taking legal responsibility, and even paying compensation. So by framing it as "a free upgrade," it turns into "look how generous I am, giving you a free upgrade." Refusing to admit mistakes—that is truly Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in Xi Jinping's New Era.
Someone once said something I really like. They said, "Our China is now forging ahead triumphantly, overtaking Britain and catching up with America—why step on the brakes?" So well said! Exactly, why step on the brakes? The one thing the entire CCP country cannot afford to do right now is step on the brakes. Isn't the Chief Accelerator named Jiada? So the Fifth Plenum must be run well, and at the 21st Party Congress next year, he must continue his term all the way until age 150. Just like with the AITO V800, never admit mistakes, forge ahead courageously! In fact, I think Chinese cars in the future shouldn't have brakes at all. Since you're completely automated and AI-driven, why do you need brakes? You shouldn't even have an accelerator pedal—just forge ahead courageously, right? If you brake, what does that mean? It means the Western American imperialists whose desire to destroy us never dies are trying to halt China's development! Only that can truly be called the unity of man and vehicle! So if things keep developing like this, I fear the very first safety instruction in Chinese car manuals in the future will be: "Patriotic owners, please do not maliciously trample on the pedals with counter-revolutionary violence."
Last night, the local government in China's Xinjiang took the lead by posting a statement harshly slamming this Huawei AITO car, saying: "Can your responses and your PR talk like normal human beings? We are asking you about safety and health functions, and you keep telling me your car has a refrigerator, a sauna, an AI beauty, voice packs from Peng Liyuan and Holger Chen, and videos to watch. I don't want to watch them!" And then today, on October 11, the People's Daily itself entered the fray, joining forces with four major organizations to severely criticize how a Chinese car's brake pedal should never snap during driving. That statement carries immense weight! Because the Little Pinks can no longer make excuses claiming that Dongchedi, people like us, and those criticizing Huawei are foreign forces—because they don't dare scold the People's Daily! Do you dare claim that the People's Daily is also controlled by the United States? You definitely wouldn't dare! Even the most core state media of the CCP Central Committee has stepped out. Alright then, your brake shouldn't snap. Little Pinks: "Yes, we obey the Party. Huawei, you really shouldn't have done this, but they gave us a free upgrade! Thank you Huawei, and thank you People's Daily for supervising our Huawei. Both are great!"
Even the lapdog Hu Xijin has begun to break down, furiously bashing Huawei's cars as well. You have to understand: to what extent can playing the patriotism card be considered overkill? When even Hu Xijin rushes over to tell you, "Little Pinks, hold off on your patriotism for now, it's getting embarrassing. Let's first address this safety issue. I know you can't afford it, but we can, and we're terrified to buy it." What's even more absurd is that in June this year, China officially rolled out regulations on online evaluation and testing activities, requiring product performance tests to follow statutory standards—meaning you must have court-recognized qualifications and be an officially certified testing agency before you can apply testing methods. Why did they suddenly push this regulation? Because early this year, the Chinese mobile phone reviewer Geekerwan tested phones across all Chinese brands, alongside Apple and Samsung—daring not to test Huawei, which was already saving them face—and it turned out that other Chinese phone brands were massively gaming the system: the identical model obtained by ordinary users, by the media, and by reviewers had vastly different performance, whereas iPhones and Samsungs had consistent performance across the board. That video was subsequently censored on a massive scale.
So you see that China has developed structural and systemic problems, not just with phones and cars. Then whenever a rainstorm hits, two or three floors get submerged. Have you noticed how this kind of social environment and atmosphere shaped under CCP rule has caused similar problems to crop up in every single industry? Of course, we can't say Huawei will collapse or be finished by tomorrow, but we can see that it has started caving in. It is on the road to collapse, surging forward in high spirits just like the CCP Central Committee. Don't hit the brakes, okay? Absolutely never hit the brakes, you hear? Little Pinks taking out loans while earning three to five thousand a month just to buy this car, right? That's all for today's video.
