China has played two major dramas in a row: one for a summit and a major military parade. There are actually two big games of chess playing behind them, one in the open and the other in the dark. Do you understand?

Recently, the two events we held were quite lively, but if they were placed in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war and the trade war, the taste would be completely different.

Who do you want to show behind this? What do you want to explain? Today, let's take a look at the doors inside and outside this table.

China sets the stage and all parties sing

Let's talk hard first. This military parade has only two words: bright sword!

Xiaojin's biggest feeling is that unlike in the past, we were a little more "hugging the pipa and covering our face". This time, we completely stopped hiding it and pulled out the good things at the bottom of the box for the world to see. What is the subtext? Very simple: Want to do something in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea? Consider yourself first!

The most eye-catching weapons are, of course, those new weapons. For example, the J-35 stealth fighter jet, which directly targets the American F-35; another example is the "YJ-21", known as the "carrier killer". The range can reach up to 1,500 kilometers, and the speed can reach Mach 10. What kind of concept? You can't stop it, I can hit you, but you can't touch me. Even if it doesn't explode, just relying on speed, a collision is fatal.

In addition to these, there are also high-energy microwave guns, smart tanks that can actively intercept drones, as well as various unmanned equipment and network electronic warfare forces flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the mountains, covering almost all modern warfare. Dimensions.

Of course, it is not enough to show off your muscles. You also need to have friends. The guest list for this military parade is very informative. All five Central Asian countries are here, and basically all Southeast Asia except Thailand and the Philippines are here. What does this mean? This shows that our surrounding "fundamentals" are stable!

But the biggest focus of the audience must still be the North Korean leader. You know, when Russia held the Red Square parade, Russia-North Korea relations were already very strong. North Korea even sent troops to help Russia fight. Even so, North Korean leaders did not go to Moscow. He did not come to the China military parade in 2015 and 2019, but he did this time. There is no need to say much about the signal. Coupled with the fact that the Speaker of the National Assembly of South Korea and the former Prime Minister of Japan are also here, and people from North Korea and Japan are framing Beijing together. Does the feeling of the picture come out all of a sudden?

After watching the "martial arts" of the military parade, let's watch the "literary opera" of the Shanghai Cooperation Summit.

Whether it is Putin or Modi, this visit to China has a very direct meaning, that is, economic unity to warm up and find another way out. Talk about what? One of the key points is to establish the Shanghai Cooperation Development Bank as soon as possible.

In June this year, at the meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors of the SCO, Russia, which had been hesitant, finally nodded and supported the establishment of the SCO Development Bank as soon as possible. Once established, one of the biggest functions of this bank will be to promote settlement in local currencies among member states, which is what we often call "de-dollarization."

Modi was not very active in this matter in the past, but now the U.S. tariff stick has also hit India. When it hurts, it will naturally have to find a prescription, and his attitude is likely to change.

Western Reaction and Great Power Game

So what does the West think? Obviously, fewer people come and the specifications are lower. The Russia-Ukraine war and the chaos of the international order all made them worried.

And Modi's arrival caused a stir in the United States. Former national security adviser Sullivan publicly complained that Trump's operation was simply "four years in vain" and personally pushed India towards China and Russia. What's even more ironic is that there is news that Trump does not plan to go to India to attend the "Quadrilateral Summit" of the United States, Japan, India and Australia. Is it a little sour?

Speaking of which, I don't know if you have noticed that this year, China, the United States, Russia, and the three countries will hold military parades in the same year. It is a tradition for China and Russia to hold military parades, but the most abnormal is the United States.

On June 14 this year, which was also Trump's birthday, the United States also held a military parade. However, in comparison, the scene in the United States was a bit awkward. There were more than 6000 people, scattered, and even he himself complained that the soldiers were like a "festival."

What does this mean? Behind this is actually a silent competition between major powers. Don't forget that NATO in Europe is also desperately increasing military spending. Germany has just announced a defense plan of 355 billion euros; the United States is even more ruthless. Trump even proposed changing the "Ministry of Defense" to the "Department of War."

The three kingdoms were "flashing their muscles" at the same time, and the world's military spending was rising. The signal behind this made people think carefully and feel terrifying: Is war getting closer and closer to us?

Therefore, whether it is a military parade to show off its muscles or a SCO summit to attract friends, China is not displaying passive defense, but actively shaping the situation.

Under the haze of war and the pressure of trade war, the world is changing, but the big ship of China has already charted its course. No matter whether it is strong wind or heavy rain outside, what we have to do is to find our own path in a turbulent world!
