- 0:00Official accounts refuse to acknowledge
- 0:01the reality. Today is the release day
- 0:03for our Collapse Index again. I have
- 0:04calculated the CCP Collapse Index for
- 0:06October for everyone; the new value is
- 0:0771.26, which is an increase of 0.28
- 0:09compared to the 70.98 in September. This
- 0:10is the largest monthly increase since
- 0:12May of this year. Let’s look at the
- 0:14drama of the past few months: in July,
- 0:15the door was welded shut; in August, the
- 0:17air was cut off inside; and in September
- 0:19, that grandson Xi Jinping locked the
- 0:21door and went out visiting. So, what
- 0:22about October? In October, this idiot
- 0:24came back from visiting, realized the
- 0:26body was starting to become zombified,
- 0:28and did one thing: he gathered the
- 0:29Central Committee members—who were
- 0:31practically already in custody—for a
- 0:33four-day meeting, lecturing a group of
- 0:35decrepit old party hacks. Well, I find
- 0:36it quite interesting. As per usual,
- 0:38let's break down the points: politics
- 0:40and military added 0.1, macroeconomics
- 0:42added 0.09, social perception added 0.06
- 0:44, and the external environment and
- 0:46diplomacy added 0.03, totaling 0.28.
- 0:48Politics and the military are the
- 0:49protagonists this month, because the
- 0:51fuses for the economic issues and the
- 0:53stock market were all lit from the
- 0:54political side. So today, we’ll talk in
- 0:56reverse order, starting with politics.
- 0:58The Fifth Plenary Session was held for
- 1:00four days ending on October 26th. The
- 1:01communiqué stated that 162 regular
- 1:03Central Committee members attended,
- 1:05along with 117 alternate members,
- 1:06totaling 279 individuals. When this
- 1:08leadership was elected at the 20th Party
- 1:10Congress, there were 205 regular members
- 1:11and 171 alternate members, totaling 376.
- 1:13This means that in just four years, 97
- 1:15parts of this machine have disappeared—
- 1:17a drop of more than a quarter. Last
- 1:19year’s Fourth Plenary Session had 315
- 1:21attendees; that's 36 fewer in just one
- 1:22year. The communiqué didn't say where
- 1:24those 36 went. But the communiqué
- 1:26mentioned something else: the session
- 1:27expelled three members from the party,
- 1:29including 24 Central Committee members
- 1:30and 9 alternate members, among whom 16
- 1:32were generals and 7 were executives in
- 1:33the military-industrial complex. Last
- 1:35year's Fourth Plenary Session expelled
- 1:3614, which was already a record, and this
- 1:37time that number has more than doubled.
- 1:39Alright, since you've expelled them, you
- 1:40have to fill the vacancies. According to
- 1:42the CCP constitution, you are required
- 1:43to fill them, right? Yet, among the
- 1:45alternates, only ten were promoted,
- 1:46while five people who should have been
- 1:47filled in based on their vote count were
- 1:49skipped over. Among these are lieutenant
- 1:50generals like Fu Wenhua and Zhu Wenxiang
- 1:52. The Central Military Commission is
- 1:53still the same two useless dimwits; that
- 1:54idiot Xi Jinping combined with Zhang
- 1:56Youxia. This meeting didn't even fill a
- 1:57single Central Military Commission
- 1:58vacancy. There are now three vacancies
- 2:00in the Politburo, and only one was
- 2:01filled—Zhang Shengmin. He is the only
- 2:03person in the entire party who moved up
- 2:04, so everyone has their opinions. The
- 2:06only thing that stood out in this
- 2:07meeting is the CMC system, but what
- 2:08exactly did they do in these four days?
- 2:10Essentially, they passed only one thing
- 2:11: a decision by the CCP Central
- 2:12Committee regarding the in-depth
- 2:14promotion of comprehensive strict party
- 2:15governance on certain major issues. I
- 2:16should have gone to the Deyun Society to
- 2:18recite a crosstalk routine about it.
- 2:19They also set a date in this meeting—
- 2:21what date? The date for the 21st Party
- 2:22Congress. This 21st Congress is to be
- 2:24held in the latter half of 2027. However
- 2:25, regarding the economy......there
- 2:26wasn't a single word mentioned, nor was
- 2:27there a single word regarding personnel
- 2:28matters. This is what I......call zombie
- 2:30politics. In September, I spoke of "
- 2:32idling"—commands were issued but had no
- 2:33echo. In October, it stepped a bit
- 2:34further; it's not that there is no
- 2:36response, but that every organ in the
- 2:37entire system......has figured out the
- 2:38math, which is that it's better to do
- 2:39nothing than to do something. Let me
- 2:40break this logic down for everyone. When
- 2:42"strict party governance" falls on a
- 2:43specific individual, what does it mean?
- 2:44It means lifelong accountability. If
- 2:46something goes wrong ten years from now
- 2:47, they will still come looking for you
- 2:48for what you did today. So, for an
- 2:49official, a bank president, or a
- 2:50state-owned enterprise chairman, do you
- 2:52think that pen in their hand can
- 2:53actually accomplish anything good? It’s
- 2:54nothing more than extending the life of
- 2:56the previous mess, so what are you even
- 2:57trying to achieve? Given this situation
- 2:58of zero-sum gaming, anyone who actually
- 3:00works is an idiot; this is the root
- 3:01cause of why the current CCP system will
- 3:03inevitably ossify. Actually, if you want
- 3:04to see if a system is ossifying, look at
- 3:06two things. The first is what? It is the
- 3:08speed of response after an incident
- 3:09occurs. What does a fast response speed
- 3:10signify? It indicates that the
- 3:11grassroots government is reacting
- 3:12autonomously. This is like what? It’s
- 3:14like being pricked; your body naturally
- 3:16recoils. That’s the most direct physical
- 3:18reaction, a process that requires no
- 3:19thought. But looking at the plane crash
- 3:21into the statue, plus the CCP’s total
- 3:22disaster response—don’t you find it
- 3:24sluggish? Sluggish, right? The second
- 3:26window for observing this zombification
- 3:27is checking for a "one-size-fits-all"
- 3:29approach. Remember, if a system adopts
- 3:30this "one-size-fits-all" method, it’s an
- 3:32organization devoid of any management
- 3:33capability and filled with empty-headed
- 3:35bureaucrats. Look at the CCP’s reaction
- 3:37after the statue was crashed into—what
- 3:38was it? Within the entire Beijing area,
- 3:40you couldn't even have a drone. Not that
- 3:41they couldn't fly, but they couldn't
- 3:43exist at all. What accompanies this "
- 3:44one-size-fits-all" approach? It’s
- 3:46censorship, because they lack the
- 3:47ability to solve problems, and
- 3:48censorship is essentially a "
- 3:49one-size-fits-all" measure too.
- 3:50Conversely, if they don’t sign off on
- 3:52something, not a single hair is lost.
- 3:53They just push the report upward, saying
- 3:55, "Leader, you decide." By shirking
- 3:56responsibility, aren’t they just
- 3:58protecting themselves? So, the very
- 4:00decision to restrict is the root of this
- 4:02zombification. And what kind of
- 4:03situation does this lead to? It means
- 4:05whoever moves their pen is just planting
- 4:07a mine for themselves. The best solution
- 4:09in the entire system, especially for the
- 4:11military, is to play dead. Sixteen
- 4:13generals were expelled this year, and
- 4:15what did the PLA Daily show? There were
- 4:17editorials, but expressions of support
- 4:18from the theaters and military branches
- 4:19were absent. And staying silent is
- 4:21exactly the safest path. The local-level
- 4:22example is this month’s Zhuhai incident
- 4:24; we’ll talk about that in a moment. In
- 4:25the bulletin, there was a line of small
- 4:27print: alternate member Li Yunze was
- 4:28stripped of his party positions. Since
- 4:292023, he has been the head of the
- 4:31Financial Regulatory Administration,
- 4:32overseeing the national banking and
- 4:33insurance industries. The man in charge
- 4:35of risk was the first to be taken down,
- 4:36the same week as the Zhuhai incident. So
- 4:37, adding up the political and military
- 4:39accounts this month, we get to our
- 4:40recurring segment: the Political Star.
- 4:41Who gets the January Political Star? It
- 4:43has to be Huang Fan. The guy is 74; he’s
- 4:45been retired since 2016, eight years now
- 4:47, but he was taken away while on the way
- 4:48up. His only son was also taken in with
- 4:50him. Hey, there’s a bit of very dark
- 4:52humor in all of this. What is it? On the
- 4:54day he was nabbed, what was he doing? He
- 4:56happened to be at a property launch
- 4:57event in Zhongshan, Guangdong, giving a
- 4:58speech about real estate. What does that
- 5:00tell us? He was pointing fingers and
- 5:01holding court on stage, but the moment
- 5:03he stepped off and ran to the Shenzhen
- 5:04airport, he was nabbed, and a whole
- 5:05string of people were hauled in right
- 5:06after him. I’ve even prepared the speech
- 5:08, so let me take out my little notebook
- 5:09and read it to you all. I’ll read this
- 5:11speech with deep sentiment for you,
- 5:12Mayor Huang. Since retiring from the CCP
- 5:14system, you’ve been the busiest man
- 5:16around. For ten years, you’ve toured
- 5:17China giving lectures, sporting titles
- 5:19like Deputy Mayor of Chongqing and Fudan
- 5:20distinguished professor, rattling off
- 5:21economic data more skillfully than a
- 5:23spokesperson from the Statistics Bureau
- 5:24. You are the chief architect of the "
- 5:25Chongqing Model"—the eight-pillar
- 5:26industry, the household registration
- 5:27reform, the land ticket system, and
- 5:28local governments using land as
- 5:29collateral for financing platforms. You
- 5:30wrote the very first page of this
- 5:32textbook. This month, Zhuhai Huafa’s 744
- 5:33billion in assets served as a practical
- 5:35defense for your textbook, and on the
- 5:37very day of that defense, the author of
- 5:38the textbook was taken in. Back in 2019
- 5:40, you predicted China’s annual real
- 5:41estate construction would drop from 1.7
- 5:43billion to 1 billion square meters, and
- 5:45that at least a third of developers
- 5:46would die off. All of that came true—
- 5:48the only thing you didn't calculate was
- 5:49yourself. You were at a property launch
- 5:51ceremony talking about how to handle
- 5:52real estate, and the day you finished
- 5:54speaking, you vanished. You could say
- 5:55that was the CCP’s fastest policy
- 5:57response regarding real estate this year
- 5:58. On October 14th, the Chongqing
- 5:59Municipal Committee said they would
- 6:01clear out "toxic influences" and address
- 6:02"boss culture" and "clique culture." I
- 6:04suspect that "toxic influence" is you,
- 6:05still publicly discussing the economy
- 6:07after retirement. This month, the CCP
- 6:08snatched away the last person in the
- 6:09system still publicly talking about the
- 6:11economy, and then, at the Fifth Plenary
- 6:12Session, they didn't utter a single word
- 6:13about the economy. That is what you call
- 6:15consistency. Mayor Huang, you finally
- 6:17reached your ultimate destination: that
- 6:18retirement home—Qincheng.
- 6:19Congratulations, congratulations.
- 6:21Alright, with politics out of the way,
- 6:22let’s talk economy. The main course for
- 6:24October’s economic news is still Zhuhai
- 6:25Huafa. I talked about this in my program
- 6:27a few days ago, but let me quickly recap
- 6:29the whole story for you in chronological
- 6:31order. Huafa Group is the largest
- 6:33state-owned enterprise in Zhuhai, 93.5%
- 6:35owned by the Zhuhai SASAC, with 744
- 6:36billion in total book assets and over
- 6:38520 billion in liabilities. For an
- 6:40AAA-rated entity of this size to lose
- 6:4116.9 billion last year, and then see
- 6:42revenue drop another 28%in the first
- 6:43half of this year with another 5 billion
- 6:45in losses—that's significant. In
- 6:46September, Huafa submitted applications
- 6:48to at least three Chinese banks. What
- 6:49were they applying for? The goal is to
- 6:51extend the overall maturity of all
- 6:52existing loans while simultaneously
- 6:54demanding that banks lower interest
- 6:55rates. By late October, none of the
- 6:57three banks had agreed. Furthermore, on
- 6:59October 20th, Huafa issued a short-term
- 7:01bond with an interest rate of only 2.07
- 7:03%, which is damn near close to
- 7:04government bonds. Then last Monday,
- 7:06Huafa’s offshore bonds were hammered.
- 7:08The bond maturing in December, worth 1.4
- 7:10billion with a 4.5%coupon, fell 9%in a
- 7:12single day to 89 yuan, while the one
- 7:14maturing in 2029 dropped 12%. On October
- 7:1628th, financial sources confirmed that
- 7:18two of Huafa’s maturing trust products
- 7:19failed to pay on time. On October 29th,
- 7:21Huafa made payments to some investors
- 7:23for one of them, but there has been
- 7:24complete silence regarding the other.
- 7:26This caused the bond maturing next year
- 7:28to plummet 38%this week, falling to 60%
- 7:30of its face value. Note that
- 7:32domestically, you can still issue new
- 7:34bonds at a dirt-cheap rate of 2.07%, but
- 7:35offshore, you’re selling old bonds at a
- 7:3740%discount. Look, one company playing
- 7:39with two different pricing systems—why
- 7:41is that? Because before these offshore
- 7:42bonds were hammered, domestic banks were
- 7:44still trying to turn a blind eye, but
- 7:45the real-money offshore market had long
- 7:47since seen them heading for a default.
- 7:49So why isn’t the Zhuhai government
- 7:50stepping in to save them? This debt
- 7:52issue is essentially the same situation
- 7:53as the one in Wuzhong. Let’s look at the
- 7:55money first: Zhuhai’s total land sale
- 7:56revenue last year was only 370 million,
- 7:58a direct drop of 94%; the
- 7:59municipal-level land sale revenue was
- 8:01only 1.014 billion, an 81.5%decline. As
- 8:02for Huafa, their financial costs last
- 8:04year—simply put, their interest payments
- 8:06—see that? Zhuhai’s total land sale
- 8:08revenue isn’t even enough to cover half
- 8:09a year of Huafa's interest. Now let’s
- 8:11look at the structure: in order to
- 8:12bypass regulations and acquire land,
- 8:14Huafa set up a massive, 100-
- 8:15billion-scale bulk trade business years
- 8:16ago, successfully removing themselves
- 8:18from the list of local government
- 8:19financing vehicles. They transformed
- 8:20into what? They became a so-called "
- 8:22commercial" state-owned enterprise, but
- 8:23now their own cleverness has backfired.
- 8:25The CCP’s documents No. 35 and No. 134—
- 8:26the debt relief lists, special
- 8:27refinancing, central bank liquidity
- 8:29injections, and coordinated bank
- 8:30rollovers—have nothing to do with them
- 8:31anymore. Besides, Guangdong itself has
- 8:33long been bragging. What did they say?
- 8:35They claimed to have zero hidden debt.
- 8:36So, what was Guangdong's method? How
- 8:38could it possibly be that there is no
- 8:39hidden debt? Damn, look, everywhere that
- 8:41idiot Xi Jinping’s lackeys have been,
- 8:42the real situation becomes completely
- 8:44invisible. What’s the Guangdong playbook
- 8:45? It’s stuffing hundreds of billions in
- 8:47trade turnover into shell companies and
- 8:48claiming, "Hey, look, this is a trading
- 8:50enterprise." This is exactly what the
- 8:52auditors said when Anbang went bust. How
- 8:54did they put it? The auditors described
- 8:55Anbang’s accounts by saying that if it
- 8:57has a duck’s bill and fits the
- 8:58definition of a duck, then it’s a duck.
- 9:00Because it had trade turnover, it was a
- 9:02trade enterprise. And how was last
- 9:03year’s Zhuhai budget report written? It
- 9:05was written in black and white that
- 9:06there was "no intention to increase
- 9:08implicit debt." If they use fiscal funds
- 9:09to bail out Huafa now, it’s an admission
- 9:11that their "debt clearing" back then was
- 9:12fake. Within the CCP, this is a grave
- 9:14political error. Who do you think would
- 9:16take the fall for that? Finally, let's
- 9:17look at the people—the group that pushed
- 9:19Huafa from 100 billion to 700 billion:
- 9:20former Party Secretary Guo Yonghang,
- 9:22SASAC Director Li Wenji, Huafa Chairman
- 9:23Li Guangning, and Vice President Zhang
- 9:25Yan. One after another, they’ve all been
- 9:27taken away. So, the calculation for the
- 9:28current Zhuhai officials and bank
- 9:30presidents is clear: if you sign to
- 9:32extend their credit today, you won’t
- 9:33save them; in six months, Huafa will
- 9:35still go bust just the same. If this
- 9:37group were to sign off now, what kind of
- 9:39situation would that create? The bad
- 9:41debts left by your predecessors would
- 9:42become your own burdens for illicit
- 9:43extensions and covering up
- 9:45non-performing loans, and you'd be
- 9:46looking at lifetime accountability.
- 9:47Conversely, if you don't sign and let
- 9:49Huafa die now? All the bad debts can be
- 9:51pinned on the "dead tigers" like Guo
- 9:53Yonghang and Li Guangning, and you stay
- 9:54clean. Look, isn't this exactly how the
- 9:56Third Plenary Session’s principles are
- 9:58landing at the local level? That 1.4
- 9:59billion debt due in December for Huafa
- 10:01is the next hurdle; that’s a problem for
- 10:03the future. Now let’s look at the stock
- 10:05market. The week Huafa had its trouble,
- 10:07the atmosphere was also affected. Let’s
- 10:09settle the accounts for October first.
- 10:10The Shanghai Index fell from a high of
- 10:123,842 points all the way to 3,599 on
- 10:14October 30th, dropping 243 points in a
- 10:15month and falling below 3,600 for the
- 10:17first time this year. The ChiNext index
- 10:19was even more miserable, simply
- 10:20unspeakable, plummeting 23%in a single
- 10:22month and marking its largest monthly
- 10:23decline in over a decade. The CSI 300
- 10:25index has seen an even longer losing
- 10:26streak, falling for 12 consecutive weeks
- 10:28. The entire month of October was a
- 10:30step-by-step collapse; which day was the
- 10:31most chaotic? It was October 19th. That
- 10:34day alone, 2.25 trillion in market value
- 10:35vanished, and over 5,000 stocks crashed
- 10:37collectively. By the 22nd, the 3,000-
- 10:39point mark was lost, with another 5,000
- 10:40stocks falling, and the market was on
- 10:42the verge of collapse. On the 26th, the
- 10:44same day the top Huafa bonds were
- 10:45breached, the idiots at the CCP finally
- 10:47panicked and took action. What did they
- 10:49do? They changed the index compilation
- 10:51rules, introducing an absurd 15%cap on
- 10:53the weight of individual stocks and
- 10:55accelerating the removal of risky stocks
- 10:57. What does this clearly mean? It means
- 10:59they are trying to force the index to
- 11:01stabilize by changing the grading
- 11:02criteria. By the last two days of last
- 11:04month, the desperation was at its peak.
- 11:06On one side, the ChiNext index plunged
- 11:08over 4%, while on the other, ICBC and
- 11:09CCB actually hit all-time highs on the
- 11:11same day. At the close on the 30th, over
- 11:134,600 stocks were down, and nine of the
- 11:1415 major indices closed at their daily
- 11:16lows. Do you see what's happening in
- 11:18this market now? The record highs for
- 11:19the big banks couldn't have been retail
- 11:21investors; it was most likely massive
- 11:23funds like Central Huijin propping up
- 11:24the index, keeping it hanging around
- 11:263,000 points. This led to a very strange
- 11:28situation: the index is moving, but the
- 11:304,600 stocks beneath it are dead. What
- 11:32does this feel like? It's like a person
- 11:34who has lost the ability to take care of
- 11:35themselves, being dragged along by a
- 11:37rope; this is the zombie version of the
- 11:38stock market. This current wave actually
- 11:40began falling in July; the ChiNext has
- 11:42dropped over 40%from its July highs.
- 11:44Trading volume on September 29th hit a
- 11:4514-month low, and then October saw a
- 11:46surge in volume on the decline, which is
- 11:48a sign of retail investors cutting their
- 11:49losses and exiting. On the data front,
- 11:51I’ll be brief: on October 19th, the
- 11:52National Bureau of Statistics released
- 11:54the third-quarter GDP, claiming a 4.5%
- 11:55growth, with the first three quarters at
- 11:564.6%. My assessment remains unchanged;
- 11:58the real growth rate is, at most, around
- 11:591%. The same old principle applies:
- 12:00wherever the CCP draws a circle, we
- 12:02start our analysis from that point. What
- 12:03is the CCP’s propaganda machine claiming
- 12:04? They say September’s exports,
- 12:06denominated in US dollars, grew by 36.3
- 12:07%, hitting a record $ 447.2 billion for
- 12:09the month, with a trade surplus of $
- 12:10143.5 billion. Exports could be
- 12:12considered the only leg still standing
- 12:13in the CCP's economy, but as for how
- 12:15much of that is padded by fake trade, we
- 12:17discussed that a couple of days ago, so
- 12:18I won't repeat it. Let’s look at how
- 12:20businesses are being squeezed. In
- 12:21September, the PPI rose 5%year-on-year,
- 12:24a high since June 2022, and in late
- 12:26October, Brent crude hit $ 115 a barrel
- 12:28again, yet CPI only rose 0.9%. What does
- 12:30this tell us? It means that upstream
- 12:32input costs are still soaring, but the
- 12:33public downstream simply doesn't have
- 12:35the money to pay. These high costs get
- 12:37stuck in the middle, effectively wiping
- 12:38out corporate profits. With no profit
- 12:40margins, the manufacturing sector
- 12:42naturally shrinks. In October, the
- 12:43manufacturing PMI fell to 49.3,
- 12:45returning to the contraction zone;
- 12:46mid-sized enterprises are at 48.4, and
- 12:48small businesses are at just 47.5, which
- 12:49means the smaller the business, the
- 12:51faster it goes under. Now looking at
- 12:52investment and real estate, it’s a
- 12:54complete freefall. Through September,
- 12:55fixed-asset investment fell 7.2%, and
- 12:57real estate development investment
- 12:59plummeted 20.6%. In September alone, new
- 13:01home sales and floor area both dropped
- 13:02by over 20%, funds in place for
- 13:04developers fell by over 21.6%, and
- 13:05domestic bank loans to them took a
- 13:06massive 33.1%hit. What does this mean?
- 13:08It means that not only are people no
- 13:09longer buying homes, but banks are also
- 13:11desperately trying to pull their loans
- 13:12out of the real estate sector and run.
- 13:13This has led directly to financial data
- 13:15going completely flat. In September, new
- 13:16RMB loans were 210 billion less than the
- 13:18same period last year, household loans
- 13:19showed near-zero growth, and household
- 13:21loans for the first nine months totaled
- 13:22over 1.03 trillion. This is the first
- 13:24time since records began that the public
- 13:25has effectively been in a net-repayment
- 13:27phase over the first three quarters.
- 13:28What does this mean? It means the
- 13:30Chinese public has lost all hope for the
- 13:31future. They would rather scrape by to
- 13:33pay off loans early than take on any
- 13:34more leverage. With the private sector
- 13:36stalled, how is the fiscal situation
- 13:37holding up? The fiscal situation is also
- 13:39bleeding out. In September, public
- 13:40budget revenue fell by 0.1%, and the
- 13:41securities stamp duty—that way of
- 13:43harvesting retail investors—also turned
- 13:44negative in September. Now, the stamp
- 13:46duty ATM has stopped working, and land
- 13:47sales revenue for the first nine months
- 13:49hit only 1.6 trillion, a 28%plunge.
- 13:50Local governments are completely unable
- 13:52to make ends meet, so on October 9th,
- 13:53the Ministry of Finance had to scrape
- 13:54together 550 billion in "settlement
- 13:56quotas" for local government debt,
- 13:57allowing local governments to issue more
- 13:58debt in the fourth quarter to stay
- 14:00afloat. What is a "settlement quota"? To
- 14:02put it bluntly, it's just digging
- 14:03through the old ledgers. What do we
- 14:04usually call this? It's called scraping
- 14:06the bottom of the barrel. In reality,
- 14:07over the past decade or so, hasn't the
- 14:08central government approved an annual
- 14:10debt ceiling for each province? Some
- 14:11provinces didn't reach their full
- 14:12issuance limit back then, or they later
- 14:13paid off a portion of their old debt. So
- 14:15, at this point, a "historical surplus
- 14:16quota" appears on the books, which is
- 14:18what we call a settlement quota. And it
- 14:19is indeed scraping the barrel. As for
- 14:20the 15.5%industrial profit growth from
- 14:22January to September, it was purely
- 14:23driven by the electronics sector where
- 14:24profits doubled, while foreign firms '
- 14:25profits only rose by 0.5%. What does
- 14:26that tell us? It tells us that foreign
- 14:28capital is still withdrawing, and
- 14:29private enterprises are still just
- 14:30barely hanging on. If we take all these
- 14:31figures together, the core truth is this
- 14:33: ordinary people would rather pay down
- 14:34debt than spend; private firms are
- 14:36crushed by costs and dare not borrow;
- 14:37and local governments can't sell land,
- 14:39so they are forced to limp along on the
- 14:41two crutches of debt issuance and
- 14:42exports. So, shifting from the economy
- 14:44to something with more "temperature"—
- 14:45that is, the actual feeling on the
- 14:47ground. The main theme of October's
- 14:48experience can be summed up in two words
- 14:50: unpaid wages. And this issue of unpaid
- 14:52wages crossed a threshold this month.
- 14:53Who was it before? It was always
- 14:55construction workers and migrant workers
- 14:56. On the evening of October 26th,
- 14:58teachers from a public school in Zunhua
- 14:59, Tangshan, Hebei, collectively blocked
- 15:01the gates of the Municipal Education
- 15:02Bureau. It wasn't for any other reason
- 15:04than long-term wage arrears, and a large
- 15:05number of police were on-site to
- 15:06maintain "stability." Then, on October
- 15:0820th, China Unicom employees in Changsha
- 15:09, wearing red vests, did nothing else
- 15:10but block the gate to demand their pay.
- 15:12On that same day, workers at a
- 15:13fertilizer plant in Pingnan, Guangxi,
- 15:14were also shouting slogans at the
- 15:15factory gate demanding compensation.
- 15:16Then there's the October 21st case of
- 15:18the China Construction Second
- 15:18Engineering Bureau's project in Huangdao
- 15:20, Qingdao. This project is a bit strange
- 15:21; exactly how much were they owed? It’s
- 15:22only 600,000 yuan, but for this amount,
- 15:24many people have already climbed to
- 15:25rooftops to demand their money back. On
- 15:26the same day, nine construction workers
- 15:27in Shantou also climbed to the roof.
- 15:29There were too many such incidents in
- 15:30October to list them all; just look at
- 15:32this table to see how chaotic it is. In
- 15:33fact, what we see now is that the CCP is
- 15:35running out of money, down to the last
- 15:37nerve. Looking over here, late at night
- 15:38on October 20th, Nagqu's Biru County in
- 15:40Tibet experienced the country's largest
- 15:41earthquake of the year, a magnitude 7.0
- 15:43. This occurred at an altitude of 4,800
- 15:45meters, and what did the CCP report? 16
- 15:47people dead—I honestly don't believe
- 15:48that for a second—followed by the
- 15:49relocation of tens of thousands of
- 15:51victims. So, what did the Western
- 15:52Theater Command actually do? An hour and
- 15:54a half after the quake, continuing the
- 15:55CCP’s current disaster relief tradition
- 15:57, they just sent a single drone to fly
- 15:58over the massive disaster zone. Hundreds
- 16:00of houses collapsed, and tens of
- 16:01thousands are shivering in this
- 16:02high-altitude climate, yet the Western
- 16:04Theater Command just flies a drone to
- 16:05take pictures? Isn't that just pure
- 16:07villainy? Look at the ledger from August
- 16:08; everyone remembers that, right? Hey,
- 16:10it happened again: social financing only
- 16:11increased by 0.06. Finally, let's talk
- 16:13about the external environment. There
- 16:14aren't many things to report here, but
- 16:16some are worth noting. From October 8th
- 16:17to 9th, EU Trade Commissioner Valdis
- 16:19Dombrovskis held two days of talks in
- 16:20Beijing with Wang Wentao, and they
- 16:21signed a joint statement. What was the
- 16:23content of the statement? They reached
- 16:24an understanding regarding trade in
- 16:25hybrid electric vehicles to the EU. And
- 16:27what did Dombrovskis say? He said that
- 16:29over the next four years, China's hybrid
- 16:30vehicle exports to Europe might decrease
- 16:32by more than half of what was originally
- 16:33projected, involving millions of cars.
- 16:34The CCP even promised to expedite
- 16:36approval for exports of rare earths and
- 16:37related materials to Europe. Back on
- 16:39September 18th, the idiots at the
- 16:40Ministry of Commerce were still acting
- 16:41tough, saying what? They claimed that
- 16:42voluntary export restrictions seriously
- 16:44violated WTO rules and that China firmly
- 16:45opposed them. Yet, just three weeks
- 16:46later, they signed the deal. Why did
- 16:48they cave so quickly? Because domestic
- 16:49demand and the real estate market have
- 16:51completely collapsed. The CCP’s economy
- 16:52is left with only exports, and they
- 16:53simply cannot afford the cost of losing
- 16:54the European market. They have no choice
- 16:56but to self-mutilate and trade rare
- 16:57earths for foreign currency. Looking
- 16:58ahead, it’s all about the future,
- 16:59specifically what’s left of this month.
- 17:01What else is happening this month? There
- 17:02is also that U.S. Department of Commerce
- 17:0450%rule for federal funding that
- 17:05automatically resumes on October 9th.
- 17:06And the funniest part? The APEC meeting
- 17:08opening in Shenzhen from October 18th to
- 17:0919th. Didn't the CCP change the
- 17:11ministerial meeting to an online one?
- 17:12The CEO summit has also shrunk; they've
- 17:14turned their home-field diplomacy into
- 17:15an internet cafe. Either the idiot's
- 17:17health really can't hold up anymore, or
- 17:18he's just too paranoid and scared, so
- 17:20he’s staying holed up inside and doesn't
- 17:21dare come out. So, I’ve added 0.03 for
- 17:23the external environment. Alright, we've
- 17:25covered the four variables: politics and
- 17:27military up 0.1, macroeconomics up 0.09
- 17:28, social sentiment up 0.06, and external
- 17:30diplomatic environment up 0.03, totaling
- 17:320.28. So, the October Missile Index is
- 17:34fixed at 71.26. How should we interpret
- 17:36the month of October? Actually, three
- 17:37words are enough: "zombification." Let
- 17:39me break it down for you: the entire
- 17:41structure of the CCP’s Central Committee
- 17:42is crippled. A quarter of the committee
- 17:44is gone, and there are only two people
- 17:46left in the Military Commission—
- 17:47strictly speaking, maybe one and a half
- 17:48, since he counts as half. This is the
- 17:50body losing its cells. The only output
- 17:52from the Plenary Session was that damn
- 17:53abstract "security" focus, which turned
- 17:55every pen that can sign into a liability
- 17:56. Banks don't sign, so companies
- 17:58collapse; the Treasury doesn't sign, so
- 17:59the people take to the streets. The best
- 18:01solution for the whole system is to play
- 18:02dead. These are the organs of a body
- 18:04shutting down one by one. Big capital is
- 18:05propping up bank stocks, dragging the
- 18:07Shenzhen Index to 3,600 points. This is
- 18:08a body being pulled by external forces.
- 18:10What does November look like? At that
- 18:12APEC meeting in Shenzhen, we'll see if
- 18:14that idiot Xi Jinping can still walk out
- 18:15by holding onto a friend. Go ahead, CCP
- 18:18, keep at it. I’ll keep tracking the
- 18:20account for everyone. Alright, that's it
- 18:22for today.
