Zhao Xijun: HSBC investing in China driven by interests, not politics
HSBC recently announced it plans to further boost investment in the Chinese mainland, despite the escalating number of critics it faces from Western politicians and media due to its support for the National Security Law for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). The company has signaled new investment of introducing demand-driven and customized wealth management and insurance services empowered by digital technologies.

Liu Zhiqin: Has Europe been naive about its foreign policy toward China for 40 years?
Certain European politicians and scholars have been repeatedly using the word "naive" to describe Europe's foreign policies toward China, defining China as a "systemic rival" and claiming that the EU's naive era is over. Such a notion also reveals a trace of helplessness, self-pity and even frustration over its ignorance, with the words between the lines reading Europe's judgment on China has been wrong.

William Jones: Fourth of July celebrations in the shadow of the virus
As the American people prepare to celebrate Independence Day on July 4, the increased spread of the coronavirus throughout the country will cast a dark shadow over the celebrations, whatever reduced form they may take this year. While there may have been some hope in the early spring that a certain amount of normalcy would have returned to the country by July, the abortive attempt to "reopen" the country before COVID was under control, and without the necessary warnings of maintaining a modicum of protection, such as social distancing, masks, etc., has led to a resurgence of the epidemic in those reopened states.

Wang Wen: Will coronavirus bring world to dark age?
When the novel coronavirus broke out about five months ago, people thought the virus would be something like SARS - a terrifying infectious disease that hit them hard in 2003. It was unthinkable for almost everyone that COVID-19 would become such a severe pandemic. As of press time, there have been over 10 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 around the world with more than 501,000 deaths. As a comparison, a total of 8,098 people worldwide became sick with SARS during the 2003 outbreak, and 774 of them died. Moreover, due to some countries' loose handling of COVID-19, the downward inflection point in terms of worldwide cases has yet to come.

Wang Wen: Making Polarisation? China Can, but Won’t
US scholars proposed the concepts of “G2” and “Chimerica” a decade ago. At present, the total GDP of China and the United States exceeds 40% of the world’s total, their combined military expenditures exceed 45% of related global spending, and they account for more than 65% of the world’s R&D investment. According to the assumptions of those US scholars, a pattern of G2 or polarisation has already emerged. But the fact is that the Chinese government and the nation’s academic circles have not yet affirmed the emergence of a G2, and are even more reluctant to move towards a polarised global paradigm with the United States.
