Tariffs might make headlines, but global supply chains are playing 4D chess 🧠. In a recent deep dive with CGTN, scholar Zhu He got his hands dirty (literally!) at factories in Guangdong – China’s manufacturing powerhouse 🏭.
Zhu, deputy director at the China Finance 40 Forum, told CGTN that while U.S.-China trade tensions create short-term hurdles, markets are ‘rewriting the rulebook’ through innovation. ‘It’s like a giant game of Tetris,’ he quipped, describing how companies relocate production or develop new tech to bypass trade barriers.
His take? Supply chains have more moves than a K-pop dance routine 💃. From Vietnam’s rising electronics sector to Mexican auto parts hubs, Zhu notes businesses worldwide are finding workarounds – proving globalization isn’t down for the count 🥊.
For young professionals eyeing Asian markets, Zhu’s message is clear: ‘Watch where the smart money flows.’ With green tech and AI reshaping trade routes, tomorrow’s economic map might look wildly different 🗺️⚡.
