21.02.2025 ⇢ Xi's Private Enterprise Shield Through Philippine Storm

By mid-morning, military tensions escalated as China reported expelling Philippine aircraft from the Spratly Islands, while simultaneously promoting the J-35 stealth fighter to Middle East buyers. DeepSeek AI's alleged stock market misinformation emerged as a new concern, connecting to previous days' AI sovereignty themes.
The afternoon saw US-China economic dialogue through Treasury-Vice Premier talks, focusing on tariffs and economic imbalances. Xi's revision of military rules and China's GaN chip breakthrough announcement completed the day's technological sovereignty narrative, while Hong Kong's Democratic Party moved closer to dissolution.

从兰州到杭州，差不多两千公里，开车二十多个小时，高铁十一个小时，飞机三个小时，而我一个兰州的朋友，决定把公司从兰州搬到杭州，就沉思了不到五分钟，这一点也不夸张，或许决定早已下了，这五分钟只是在跟兰州告别，兰州，实在是太让他伤心了，也不是伤心，是煎熬。我想起前几天牛文文说的一句话，他说其实不是杭州扶持了deepseek，而是杭州没有消灭它。这话放在兰州就显得格外好懂了，不指望你给民营企业啥支持，你别乱来胡作为瞎折腾企业就行了。

尽管电影中并没有提到。但逻辑上讲，土拨鼠们虽然没有什么向上跨越阶层的可能性，甚至只能成为炼丹的材料，但向下同样可以压迫凡人为他们效命。所以说，土拨鼠是“享利”阶层的最垫底层级。土拨鼠之下皆牛马！
