China took the initiative to counter-measure within 24 hours, and many American companies were named. This time, we won't give Trump time to react.

Recently, China's series of counter-actions hide a very clear attitude.

What attitude ?

Reason, abide by the rules, but if anyone steps on the red line, damage interests, then must take the move, there is no room for ambiguity.

So we can see.

On October 9, my country's Ministry of Commerce announced that 14 foreign entities, including Anti-UAV Technology Corporation and Cube Global Defense Corporation, would be included in the list of unreliable entities, with import and export bans, investment restrictions, and data cooperation blocking.

On the same day, the Ministry of Commerce also issued two announcements to improve rare earth export control measures.

The above is a partial list

24 hours, 3 heavy weight measures, tightly linked.

It wasn't common before. In the past, similar policies ranged from a few days to a week from release to supporting implementation. Why can it be so fast this time?

It can be assured that this is not temporary.

The Ministry of Commerce revealed that it took 14 entities only 15 days to gather evidence of irregularities, which is half as much as the total number of similar cases in 2024.

In the past, information from various customs and market supervision departments had to be manually connected, but now they rely on data sharing platforms to synchronize them in real time. Import and export records and cooperation agreements can be adjusted at one point, and evidence verification is naturally faster.

More important is the speed of implementation.

The list was released at 8 o'clock in the morning, and at 10 o'clock in the morning the national customs system updated the control list, a port that day stopped the anti-drone technology company to export three batches of equipment to verify.

In fact, we can see very accurately, if the landing is slow and half kicked, will the irregular enterprises continue to operate with the opportunity to transfer assets and change suppliers?

Looking at the follow-up of rare earth rules, it just chokes the life of some foreign companies, especially those focusing on the fields of chips and high-tech weapons. Without China's rare earth materials, they can't play with them at all. As soon as relevant measures are implemented, their laboratories in China will have to work due to supply cuts.

To put it bluntly,"fast" is not the purpose, but to block all loopholes in circumvention.

And this time we turn, the change in intensity is more impressive.

Compared to the first lists in January 2025, the difference is noticeable.

In January, those seven enterprises were mainly bound by an "import and export ban"; This time, 14 companies directly face triple restrictions.

It depends on what these companies are doing wrong.

Space Environmental Companies rely on the Chinese production of drone engine components for the day, the ban came out, and the mass production of new products was directly yellow;

Dejain Technology Company built a navigation R & D center in Huahua and invested US$20 million in the initial stage. Once the approval was suspended, it became all money in the balance.

Even the Halifax International Security Forum, an institution without entity, was included in the list because of its inappropriate remarks, and the two academic activities planned to hold in China were all ruined.

But there is a detail that must be mentioned, and the companies that are not concerned with black companies, rare-earth procurement, technological cooperation, everything is the same.

We are not trying to implement a "one-size-fits-all" approach, but who violates the rules and who will be held accountable. There is always room for compliant companies.

Looking at the whole year, these 24 hours combine two tricks, more like a key pitch in a whole set of rhythms.

In January, the top seven ¡°light restrictions + warnings¡± were counted to knock on the alarm clock, so that they didn¡¯t touch the red line.

In March, 10 more, the measures expanded to the investment area, and the effort was raised, warning to be serious.

By October, the combination of "triple restrictions + rare earth matching" will be directly applied, aiming at more serious violations.

What are the advantages of this progressive rhythm?

On the one hand, avoid one-time concentrated attacks adding chaos to the market; On the other hand, continuous pressure makes enterprises that want to violate the rules dare not act rashly.

According to the Ministry of Commerce, after the January list came out, more than 30 foreign-invested enterprises actively stopped high-risk cooperation, and even a European defense company broke the technology agreement with Taiwan.

And before each release, industry associations will draw the line to compliance enterprises in advance. for example, the Chinese Mechanical and Electrical Products Import and Export Association told drone companies early on, "don't deal with foreign investors involved in Taiwan cooperation."

Both the counter-objective was achieved and the market stabilized, and this balance struck very well.

In the end, this 24-hour intense action hides the spirit and wisdom of Chinese counter-reaction.

The speed is fast, because after the implementation of the provisions of the Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law, the inter-departmental coordination mechanism has improved, the responsibilities of more than a dozen departments such as diplomacy, public security and financial supervision are clear, and the notification system is looking at the implementation, and it is difficult to think sooner.

The strength is accurate because the law has long clarified that "policies should be implemented according to the degree of violations", property freezing can manage intellectual property rights, and transaction bans can cover the science and technology and education industries. There are all the means, so there is no need to work blindly.

The pace is stable, because there is a framework from decision-making to remedy, the entities that are included can apply for reconsideration, special needs and exceptional channels, both legal and reserved space.

A German auto parts company recently invested 120 million euros in China. The person in charge said the truth: "The rules are clear and clear, and if you know how to comply with them, you will be practical."

This is perhaps the most powerful proof that China's counter-measures are never for confrontation, but for establishing rules. You behave, and the door to cooperation is open; If you break the rules, the counter-measures will follow.

After all, in this world, no one is a soft tomato, but the reason and the rule of law are always stronger than the force of a straight shock.
