Pay attention truth seeking folks. If you haven’t been paying attention to what’s happening in China, it’s time to snap out of it. The future isn’t in America anymore; it’s in China. And if you think this is some kind of conspiracy theory, think again. This is real, and it’s happening right now.

I just read an eye-opening piece by Thomas L. Friedman in The New York Times, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. America is tanking the stock market to bring factory jobs back to the U.S. while simultaneously pouring billions into AI to replace jobs we already have. But here’s the real kicker: China isn’t just keeping up; they’re blowing us out of the water.

The Future Is in China, Not America
Friedman visited Huawei’s massive new research center in Shanghai, and what he saw was nothing short of mind-blowing. This isn’t some small, nondescript facility. We’re talking about a campus the size of 225 football fields, built in just over three years, housing 35,000 scientists, engineers, and other tech experts. This is Huawei’s response to the U.S. attempt to choke them off with sanctions. And guess what? It’s working.

Huawei has come back stronger than ever. They’ve introduced the ‘Mate 60’ smartphone with advanced semiconductors, despite U.S. sanctions. They’ve even developed their own mobile operating system, Hongmeng, to compete with Apple’s and Google’s. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Huawei is leading the charge in AI technology for everything from electric vehicles to self-driving cars and even autonomous mining equipment.

America’s Magical Thinking vs. China’s Strategic Vision
While Trump is focused on what teams American transgender athletes can race on, China is focused on transforming its factories with AI so it can outpace all of our factories. Trump’s “Liberation Day” strategy is to double down on tariffs while gutting our national scientific institutions and workforce that spur U.S. innovation. But China’s liberation strategy is to open more research campuses and double down on AI-driven innovation to be permanently liberated from Trump’s tariffs.

Beijing’s message to America is clear: “We’re not afraid of you. You aren’t who you think you are — and we aren’t who you think we are.” Case in point: Huawei’s net profit more than doubled last year, driven by new hardware running on homegrown chips. Some American senators need to get out more. If you’re a U.S. lawmaker and want to bash China, be my guest, but at least do your homework.

The China Fitness Club
China’s manufacturing juggernaut is powerful not just because it makes things cheaper, but because it makes them cheaper, faster, better, smarter, and increasingly infused with AI. This is what Jörg Wuttke, a former longtime president of the E.U. Chamber of Commerce in China, calls “the China fitness club.”

China starts with an emphasis on STEM education, producing some 3.5 million STEM graduates each year, about equal to the number of graduates from associate, bachelor’s, master’s, and Ph.D. programs in all disciplines in the United States. When you have that many STEM graduates, you can throw more talent at any problem than anyone else. And while many Chinese engineers may not graduate with M.I.T.-level skills, the best are world class, and there are a lot of them.

Moreover, China’s vocational schools graduate tens of thousands of electricians, welders, carpenters, mechanics, and plumbers every year, so when someone has an idea for a new product and wants to throw up a factory, it gets built really fast. Over 550 Chinese cities are connected by high-speed rail, making the Amtrak Acela look like the Pony Express.

The AI Revolution
China’s AI innovators are demonstrating their ability to grow their own open-source AI engine, DeepSeek, with far fewer specialized U.S. chips. The tech community in China is buzzing with energy. They’re infusing AI into every aspect of manufacturing, from design to testing to production. This is like injecting a stimulant into a powerful engine, optimizing and accelerating every aspect of the process.

A Call to Action
If you’re still sleeping on China, you need to wake up. The future is here, and it’s in China. America can’t tariff its way to prosperity, especially at the dawn of the AI revolution. It’s time for U.S. lawmakers to stop shunning visits to China and start engaging with Chinese technology and capital. America needs to rebuild trust and forge healthy interdependencies, or they’re heading for a lose-lose scenario.

So, what’s the takeaway? The future isn’t in America; it’s in China. Wake up, America, before it’s too late.
