德政府突然變卦 中德關係「退回原點」；俄連夜逃亡布陷阱最後的瘋狂？鄭州再爆逃亡潮 學者：堪比大飢荒的災難來了

Hello everyone today is Friday November 11th Hong Kong time Welcome today's news Let's start with international news Please listen to the report German Chancellor Scholz under immense pressure from domestic and international calls for him to take a stance against China changed his position and banned Chinese companies from acquiring two chip firms in Germany China's investment plan in two German chip factories has faced intense scrutiny and the German government which had initially favored the investment now faces growing doubts On November 9th the decision was finally reversed and officially halted the German cabinet acted according to the Foreign Trade and Payments Act The decision to ban semiconductor manufacturer Elmos from selling to the subsidiary of Beijing Caiwei Electronics Holdings Swedish chipmaker Silix is not just this one case The acquisition plan of a Chinese company for another semiconductor company ERS Electronics was also rejected Why did the German government make this decision German Economy Minister Habeck pointed out Because compared to a ban any moderate approach of adding conditions to the acquisition is insufficient to eliminate the risks and the acquisition would pose a threat to Germany's public order and security Habeck said if trade and market interests are used for power politics and may go against Germany's interests we must protect our own interests The CCP is adopting a well-considered strategic approach especially in the semiconductor and microchip manufacturing sector even if Germany maintains trade relations with Beijing in the future We must also avoid its influence on German politics through economic investments Habek said we cannot be naive We must see that trade and market interests will be used to serve political power It has been used to harm Germany's interests Regarding the failure of this CCP acquisition Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian at the regular press conference said in a powerless manner Germany and other countries should provide a fair environment for Chinese enterprises to operate normally Do not politicize normal economic and trade cooperation Do not resort to protectionism under the pretext of national security German Chancellor Scholz recently visited Beijing and before his trip there were reports that Germany intended to approve Chinese investment in its chip factory But after Saltz returned to the country the acquisition was quickly halted sparking speculation with some commentaries describing the special relationship as being reset to square one Russian sources reported on the 10th that the Ukrainian main forces have entered the center of Kherson On the same day the Ukrainian military announced that they had recaptured 200 square kilometers of territory in Kherson Also 12 villages On the 9th the Russian forces retreated to the east bank of the Daria River The U S Institute for the Study of War believes this reflects the insufficient defensive strength of the Russian forces in the area The strategy is being changed to prioritize evacuation This is the most significant progress by Ukraine since October During this period Ukrainian forces advanced 36 kilometers in Kherson The recapture of 40 villages The commander-in-chief of the armed forces Zelenskyy said The authorities will continue to launch offensives according to the plan To recover the lost territories Zelenskyy stated The decision of the Russian forces to withdraw will not make the hangar complacent The enemy will not show goodwill Instead we have won everything Reuters reported Ukrainian presidential advisor Podolyak wrote on Twitter on the 10th that Russian forces plan to turn Kherson into a city of death Russian forces sold bombs everywhere they could including buildings and sewers On the left bank of the Dnieper River Russian forces They will turn Kherson to ashes This is the Russian Empire Arrive strive celebrate Kill the witnesses Left with ruins depart Biden said The Russian decision to withdraw troops has confirmed that the Russian military has some real problems The US has been expecting this situation for some time This situation will allow Russia and Ukraine to Reassessing positions in winter Russian commentator Malokov believes this withdrawal presents the Kremlin's greatest geopolitical failure since the collapse of the Soviet Union Moreover this issue cannot be concealed The White House announced on the 10th that Biden will hold a face-to-face meeting with Xi Jinping during the G20 summit in Indonesia on the 14th Biden said that during his meeting with Xi Jinping he would outline red lines including the Taiwan issue and would not make any fundamental concessions while Xi Jinping on the day of the U S midterm elections The head of the CMC Joint Operations Command inspected the CCP's Joint Operations Command Center Analysts believe that Xi Jinping is making a statement to the United States Experts have analyzed This indicates that Xi Jinping will personally command the operation It signals the start of the military campaign against Taiwan In response to the CCP's provocation the US military quickly made significant deployments to counter According to NPR Biden is expected to discuss with Xi Jinping including the Taiwan issue trade He hopes Xi Jinping understands every red line in the relationship between the two countries He will not make any fundamental concessions to the CCP government He emphasized that the US seeks competition rather than conflict U S Election Day on November 8th Xi Jinping in a camouflage uniform inspected the CCP Central Military Commission's Joint Operations Command Center Xinhua's report in addition to the CCP General Secretary After holding the three titles of State President and Chairman of the Central Military Commission he also added the title of Chairman of the Joint Operations Command of the Central Military Commission which is worth noting Xi Jinping warned during this inspection that the once-in-a-century global transformation is accelerating increasing the instability of China's security situation He called for the entire army to focus all its energy on combat and for all work to be directed towards combat He said that this was seen by the outside world as the sound of the trumpet for cross-strait warfare Mr Henghe a Chinese affairs commentator in the United States stated that the CCP in the absence of a war threat emphasized the need to fight which indicates that it is his own intention to initiate a war It is an offensive strategy clearly targeting Taiwan And now Xi Jinping is visiting in this capacity indicating that he really wants to personally command the operation But the CCP's opponents are not just Taiwan Also the US or the US-Japan-Australia alliance Mr Yokoyama's analysis Waging war is a very professional occupation You cannot command a war just because you have power So when political leaders decide to personally direct the war it is harmful to the war and also harmful to their own side because there are many political factors involved and intelligence will fail The war judgment system will fail because the battlefield is too far from the command center soldiers may be afraid to report the real situation which can cause command delays at any time His statement that Putin personally commands the Russia-Ukraine war is an example Putin is not a military background Causing the Russian army to suffer continuous defeats Since Biden took office The leaders of the United States and China have not yet met in person since Pelosi's August visit to Taiwan further escalating tensions between the two countries according to White House officials The first in-person meeting between Biden and Xi will not lead to any concrete policy breakthroughs This meeting is not aimed at achieving deliverable results and will not issue a joint statement The national security strategy released by Biden last month identifies the CCP as the greatest threat to the United States The US-China relationship has shifted towards confrontation According to the US Naval Institute News USS Makin Island (LHD 8) departs San Diego Naval Base for an Indo-Pacific deployment The message says the USS Makin Island will carry out its mission under the amphibious ready brigade structure which includes the San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock The focus of this deployment is a fully equipped squadron of 10 F-35B Lightning II strike fighters enhancing the overall military presence in the Asia-Pacific region according to the report The mission of the amphibious ready group is to ensure the ability to deploy the Marine Corps ashore in preparation for conflicts in the Indo-Pacific waters said the 13th Expeditionary Unit commander Because of the heightened tensions with the CCP over the Taiwan issue the focus of the US Navy's operations in recent years has been to be properly prepared to conduct operations in the Indo-Pacific region This time's deployment in the Asia- Pacific is also to effectively operate between equipment performance and regional coastal defense terrain Let's take a look at the news from both sides of the strait Please listen to the report The harsh epidemic prevention measures are fully implemented in China with no end in sight On November 8th a mass exodus of Foxconn workers occurred and just one week has passed A new mass student evacuation incident erupted in Zhengzhou Henan Province with reported numbers as high as 30 000 surpassing the Foxconn incident Zhengzhou Huanghe Science and Technology College is China's largest private university Rumors indicate that a positive case was found at the southern campus of the college on the 8th Students saw that other schools had mixed positive and negative cases and followed the precedent of sealing students within the campus Don't want the tragedy to happen to me again So I said in the chat group If you can come out come out quickly You won't be able to leave later Now you can rush Take the door apart and rush through it A scene of more than 30 000 students collectively rushing to exit appeared dragging their luggage to escape Phoenix Online's Li Qi Tan Information Report stated that on the 8th there were reports that the school was on holiday and many students urgently packed their belongings Prepare to return home but by noon half the students had already left the school the school then started blocking them from leaving as a result in the afternoon a large number of students rushed the gate and escaped from the campus according to reports The reason for the students' mass departure was that someone on campus was infected earlier causing the spread of the illness It is said there were one or two hundred cases or more After the news spread throughout the school people became very anxious After seeing people leave the school to go home many students followed them in fleeing The report also mentioned that there are about 700 000 college students in Zhengzhou Once such a large group encounters problems it can be very serious The impact on society is significant Currently multiple areas in Henan have announced emergency checks for personnel returning home from the Yellow River Science and Technology College Zhengzhou University of Finance and Economics Zhengzhou University Zhengzhou University of Light Industry with detailed reporting required The disaster caused by the zero-COVID policy is being repeated in rounds Besides triggering public resentment and social unrest the economy is already on the verge of collapse A netizen from Jiangsu on the 7th revealed that his friend Both the father of the friend and the person are inside the system They are both currently having their salaries suspended Now the only stable source of income in his family is his grandmother who is over 90 years old The old lady after 20 years Once again the backbone of the family Jiangsu is the richest province in China The system is also known as the most secure It's already so difficult A netizen from Hebei responded in the comments section The unit of the family member is a designated hospital for official treatment No bonus has been issued since December last year The basic salary from last month was also not paid A Beijing resident who goes by the name Wu Yu told Voice of Hope that now people are afraid to go out anywhere and if you go out and end up having your entire neighborhood locked down who wouldn't blame you It felt like the atmosphere during the Cultural Revolution where the masses were pitted against each other he and his neighbors are now often anxious and sometimes unable to sleep through the night in recent years Beijing residents rarely store Chinese cabbage in winter anymore This year he found that many people were buying large quantities of Chinese cabbage just like him Moreover they were also pickling it Everyone's mind had gone back to the era of the planned economy's communal meals Even as the people can no longer withstand the pressure the CCP remains steadfast in its dynamic zero-COVID policy Commentator Liang Jing wrote in an article for Radio Free Asia that Xi Jinping emerged victorious at the 20th Party Congress Why push the zeroing-out to even more absurd heights An historical event that helps understand this issue is the 1959 Lushan Conference Before the Lushan Conference Famine has already begun to appear The purpose of the Lushan Conference was originally to revise the previous policies of the Great Leap Forward but at the meeting Mao Zedong was supported by Zhou Enlai and Lin Biao The challenge of Peng Dehuai was crushed the CCP officials after the meeting formed a loyal team to Mao Zedong they not only did not oppose Mao but continued the Great Leap Forward and brought the entire country into turmoil It led to an unprecedented great famine Liang Jing believes similar issues emerged around the zero- COVID policy after the 20th Party Congress which likely means China is heading towards a A disaster comparable to the great famine of that year Under the strict zero-COVID measures several regions in China have experienced the most severe wave of infections this year The official CCP report stated that there were more than 9 000 new cases on the 9th Several regions are urgently building isolated wards However given the CCP's long- standing practice of concealing the epidemic the actual infection numbers remain unclear Guangzhou has once again converted the Canton Fair Exhibition Center into a quarantine field hospital while Zhengzhou has transformed an old factory building into a 10 000-person field hospital These prefabricated cabins although simple can be considered well-equipped compared to Xinjiang in the vast northwest It's already winter in the northwest in November On the 9th Urumqi had a heavy snowfall In the frozen wilderness Netizens are worried that the Communist Party's strict zero-COVID policy will lead to more tragedies Over the past three years various makeshift quarantine centers have been providing the lives of Chinese people under the zero-COVID policy with people strictly confined in lockdowns Increasingly losing freedom Their experiences are becoming increasingly absurd Jiuquan City Gansu Senior high school student Gao and Zhang from Suzhou High School Because they went downstairs on the 8th floor during home quarantine The Suzhou Public Security Bureau reported that they did not comply with local epidemic management regulations and the school immediately determined that the behavior of these two students would lead to serious safety risks in local epidemic prevention work Therefore expelling two students from school Suspended for six months The disciplinary decision also mentioned Life is more precious than Mount Tai The epidemic is an order Prevention and control is a responsibility However they were infected with the CCP virus The Zhengzhou resident who recently tested negative has a different view on the incident she told our station that the disease is self-limiting meaning it will recover on its own but the authorities are making such a big deal about it Instead it caused public panic I had heard that after the 20th Congress the epidemic policies would be relaxed but according to the current situation they still haven't been relaxed and are getting stricter the people are very afraid actually if it's time to open up just open up What if the economy isn't national What about the people's income Thank you for listening to this segment of Today's News Goodbye
