1 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 2: The US presidential election is a week away, and the 3 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 2: contest between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris could not be tighter. 4 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 2: The two candidates are going head to head on everything 5 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 2: from the economy to immigration, but one area they agree 6 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 2: on is the need to curb China's rise. 7 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 3: We've got hundreds of billions of dollars just from China alone, 8 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 3: and I haven't even started yet. 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 4: But tarifs are two things if you look at it. 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 4: Number one is for protection of the companies that we 11 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 4: have here. 12 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 5: In any policy about China should be in making sure 13 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 5: the United States of America wins the competition for the 14 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 5: twenty first century, which means focusing on the details of 15 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 5: what that requires, focusing on relationships with our allies, focusing 16 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 5: on investing in American based technology. 17 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 2: So how is the US doing versus China, which superpower 18 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: is leading the race for dominance of the twenty first century? 19 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 2: Rebecca Chung Wilkins, Bloomberg's Asia Government and Politics correspondent, says 20 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: a good way to try to answer this question is 21 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: by looking at the key emerging technologies that China identified 22 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: as its priority back in twenty fifteen when it announced 23 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 2: its Made in China twenty twenty five plan. 24 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 3: Our host came. 25 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: And when you look at that plan now, nearly a 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: decade later, new research by Bloomberg Economics and Bloomberg Intelligence 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: shows that Made in China twenty twenty five has largely 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 2: been a success. 29 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 4: So of the thirteen key technologies tracked by Bloomberg researchers, 30 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 4: China has achieved a global leadership position in five of 31 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 4: them and is catching up fast in seven others. 32 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,639 Speaker 2: Welcome to the Big tich Asia from Bloomberg News. I'm wanh. 33 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: Every week we take you inside some of the world's 34 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 2: biggest and most powerful economies and the markets, tycoons and 35 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: businesses that drive this ever shifting region. Today on the show, 36 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 2: how did China get ahead in key technological advances despite 37 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: US efforts to prevent that from happening? And would a 38 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 2: Harris or Trump administration change that? Rebecca says back in 39 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, when the Maiden China Plan was announced by 40 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: the Chinese Communist Party, it was all about helping the 41 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: country achieve two big goals. 42 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: One is this self sufficiency, not wanting to be reliant 43 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 4: on other countries. And is preparing for any kind of 44 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 4: scenario where, for example, China might be cut off from 45 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 4: say its energy supply or whatever it might be. And 46 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 4: China more broady, does have a sort of preoccupation or 47 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 4: prevailing concern with preserving its own security, so standing on 48 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 4: its own two feet, and the second is becoming increasingly 49 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 4: competitive and in fact a global leader in some of 50 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 4: these key strategic areas. So there's both a sort of 51 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 4: inward and an outward element to the Maiden in China plan. 52 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: The plan highlighted ten priority sectors for the nation to 53 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: focus on, including aerospace equipment, energy saving cars, biomedicine, and 54 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 2: high end machine tools and robots. And now almost ten 55 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 2: years later, according to the analysis by Bloomberg, China has 56 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: in fact become a global leader in many of these 57 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:39,119 Speaker 2: key areas. 58 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 4: So those sectors include solar panels, unmanned aero vehicles, those 59 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 4: are drones, graphene which is a coating material that's using 60 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 4: tons and tons of sectors, high speed rail, and electric vehicles. 61 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: Now, does China have any natural advantages that makes it 62 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: possible that it's been able to take leading positions in 63 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 2: these sectors or is this simply by design? And the 64 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: world of Beijing. 65 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 4: Well as worth saying that even in twenty fifteen, China, 66 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 4: as we determine, was already a global leader in three 67 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 4: of these sectors, in graphene, solar panels, and in unmanned 68 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 4: area vehicles, so they had a sort of somewhat of 69 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 4: a headstart in any case. But the other important element 70 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 4: here to remember, I think, is that when Beijing does 71 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 4: signal out an area for support, when it signals out 72 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 4: a key policy priority, it really is able to throw 73 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 4: the full weight of its economy essentially behind that. So, 74 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 4: for example, if it decides that electric vehicles are a priority, 75 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 4: say it can ask banks to lend it credit cheaply. 76 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 4: It can get local governments to lease it land cheaply 77 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 4: or perhaps even at no or low cost. It can 78 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 4: also get large state owned enterprises to use the sort 79 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 4: of full force of its resources, it talents, and direct 80 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 4: it towards those industries. So you know, Beijing has an 81 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: incredibly sort of powerful basis here, an incredibly powerful set 82 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 4: of resources to direct towards these industries when it has 83 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 4: selected these priorities. 84 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: But there is one key area where China hasn't caught 85 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: up to the US, and that's in advanced semiconductors. That's 86 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 2: in part because of some key things the US has 87 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: done to keep its rival from catching up. 88 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 4: There's sort of three big tools for economic statecraft that 89 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 4: we've seen. One of them is tariffs, imposing these high 90 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 4: costs for imports coming into the US, sometimes prohibitively high. 91 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 4: The second are export controls, essentially trying to prevent the 92 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,679 Speaker 4: transfer of US technology, goods, services overseas to other parts 93 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: of the world. And the final part of that are 94 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 4: financial sanctions. The big area where we can say that 95 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 4: some of the US export controls and so on had 96 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: been more effective is in sort of high advanced semiconductors. 97 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 4: And it's important to remember in this context it's just 98 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 4: a handful of companies involved in this kind of really 99 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 4: advanced semiconductor tech manufacturing. And it's fair to say the 100 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 4: Biden administrations they have been successful in building consensus among allies, 101 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 4: among other countries trying to contain China's access to semiconductors, 102 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 4: and so we saw Dutch companies, Japanese companies essentially falling 103 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 4: in line in preventing China from accessing the actual products 104 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 4: needed to manufacture these types of chips. 105 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: And in light of that of the US having allies 106 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 2: to support its approach to trade on China and its 107 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: approach to contain China, what has China done to make 108 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: sure it has access to the technologies it needs. 109 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 4: China's actually has been stoppiling like that. That's the sort 110 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 4: of fundamental basis of this. They're stopped piling a record 111 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 4: amount of semiconductor equipment, and that includes these high end 112 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 4: video chips. It's preparing essentially for a number of further curbs. 113 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 4: It's looking further out thinking if we see these kind 114 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 4: moves accelerate, if they're expanded, where will we be and 115 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 4: how do we try and future prefagainst that. 116 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: But it's not just semiconductors where the US is trying 117 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 2: to use export controls to slow China down. After the break, 118 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: a look at the other tools the US is using 119 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: and will a new administration keep them going. The US 120 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: has leaned on its allies to limit China's access to 121 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: advanced technologies like semiconductors. Meanwhile, the US is also concerned 122 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: about its ability to be a leader in other sectors 123 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: as well. Some of these areas were outlined back in 124 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two by National Security advisor Jake Sullivan. 125 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 6: Computing related technologies, biotech, clean tech are true force multipliers 126 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 6: through the tech ecosystem, and leadership in each of them 127 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 6: these areas is a national security imperative. We're investing in 128 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 6: the industries of the future and strengthening the resilience and 129 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 6: security of our supply chains. 130 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: Sullivan calls these technologies a national security imperative. Bloomberg's Rebecca 131 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: Chung Wilkins says that's an important thing to take note 132 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: of because over time she's seen a change in the 133 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: way the US talks about the need to restrain China. 134 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. I think in the early days of the trade war, 135 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 4: a lot of the focus was on the sort of 136 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 4: wrongdoing as they alleged of Chinese companies, But over time 137 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 4: that has really morphed into this whole discussion over national 138 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 4: security and increasingly this focus on China's preparedness for a war. 139 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 4: And in fact, we've almost seen the true real concerns 140 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 4: at the heart of some of these economic policies over 141 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: sort of military might. Essentially, it's this question of deterrence 142 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 4: whether or not Beijing and Washington will essentially adopt this 143 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 4: idea that the costs of this trade conflict and trade 144 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 4: war and the costs of this increasing competition are worth 145 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 4: it or not. It comes sort of, I suppose, to 146 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: this fundamental question of to what extent both sides feel 147 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 4: that their own national security is fundamentally at risk. 148 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 2: On the campaign trio, Trump and Harris have advocated different 149 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 2: approaches towards China, even as both agree on the need 150 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: to thwart its rise. I asked Rebecca what Trump currently 151 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 2: has in mind here, Well, we just. 152 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: In a way have just seen an amplification, perhaps unsurprisingly, 153 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 4: of some of his previous policies. He's mentioned this possibility 154 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 4: of sixty percent tariffs across all Chinese imports into the US. 155 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: That would be crazy high. 156 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 4: That would be crazy high, and it would really hurt 157 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 4: the Chinese economy. One Bank, for example, estimates that it 158 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 4: could essentially harm of Chinese GDP growth. So it would 159 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 4: really be a significant hit to China, but also a 160 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: significant hit to the US if that then results in 161 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 4: a higher cost of goods. 162 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 2: Lumberg's editor in chief, John Mickelsweet pressed Trump on that 163 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: point in an interview earlier this month. 164 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 3: You're talking about sixty percent trade on that sixty perent 165 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 3: tariffs on that you're talking, as you said, one hundred 166 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 3: two hundred percent of things you don't really like. You're 167 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 3: also talking about ten to twenty percent tariffs on the 168 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 3: rest of the world. That is going to have a 169 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: serious effect on the overall economy. And yes, you're going 170 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 3: to find some people who were gained from individual tariffs. 171 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 3: The overall effect could be massive. 172 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 4: I agree, it's going to have a massive effect. Positive effect. 173 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 4: It's going to be a positive not let me just no, no, 174 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: let me committed. The other thing to remember with Trump 175 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 4: is that he has taken a more protectionist stance. Writ large, 176 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 4: He's not just concerned about Chinese imports, but he's concerned 177 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 4: about imports from everyone, including, for example, the European Union. 178 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: What do we know about hair approach? 179 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 4: If she wins Will Harris's approach, we expect to be 180 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 4: more consistent with the Biden administrations. I will say, she 181 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 4: too has focused on this idea of jobs and sort 182 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 4: of American industrial policy, trying essentially to build up some 183 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 4: of those of manufacturing bases. Again, she's been critical of 184 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 4: Trump's proposed tariffs, but she has been quite firm on 185 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 4: some of the national security risks that the US faces. 186 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: So Rebecca is either approach really doing a great job 187 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 2: in containing China's tech development. 188 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 7: Well, if we look at the success of the Biden 189 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 7: administration and we look just going back to the beginning 190 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 7: at some of those maiden China targets, for example, we 191 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 7: can see that actually they aren't successful, or they haven't 192 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 7: been successful in certain key areas if we exclude semiconductors. 193 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 4: Actually trade has found a way to get through sanctions 194 00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 4: haven't been hugely successful. So that's one quest for Harris 195 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 4: that this need to perhaps recalibrate the approach. 196 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 2: Despite the US efforts to slow down China, the world 197 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: outside the US is increasingly driving Chinese evs, surfing on 198 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: Chinese smartphones, and powering their homes with Chinese solar panels, 199 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 2: and Rebecca says there might be better approaches for the 200 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 2: US to maintain its competitiveness. 201 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: One approach to thinking about what would be more effective 202 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 4: than sanctions is this idea that Adam Posen from the 203 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 4: Peterson Institute has mentioned, which is suction not sanctions. Essentially 204 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 4: that the US should be making use and taking up 205 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 4: talent resources innovation coming from China and partnering with it 206 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 4: in order to advance its own industries and its own 207 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 4: key sectors, so. 208 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: Basically taking away all the talents so that the US 209 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: makes use of. 210 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 4: It, taking the best of what China has developed, and 211 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 4: then building on that to develop and innovate at a 212 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 4: faster pace. 213 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 2: This is the big take Asia from Bloomberg News. I'm 214 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 2: wan ha. If you'd like to hear more about Bloomberg's 215 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,479 Speaker 2: research on the Maiden China Plan, check out the conversation 216 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 2: on Odd Lots with my colleagues Joe Weisenthal and Tracy Alloway. 217 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: The other thing that happened that I think was actually 218 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: a bigger deal from the Chinese perspective was when the 219 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: US added Huawei to the Commerce Department's entity list in 220 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: early twenty nineteen, because what that signal was that the 221 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 1: United States was effectively trying to kill what was arguably 222 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: China's best global technology company. The US would say, we're 223 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: not trying to kill it, but the restrictions are pretty draconian, 224 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: and there's very much that vibe. 225 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 2: And check out our last episode where you can hear 226 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 2: more about one critical market that China's focusing on EVS 227 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 2: and how one Chinese carmaker BYD is dominating the Electric 228 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 2: auto market globally. That's on our Big Take, Asia Feet. 229 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: This episode was produced by Young Young, Jessica Beck and Naomi. 230 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: It was mixed by Alex Suguera and fact checked by 231 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 2: Eddie Dwan.
