Key Notes
Jiang's description of a subsidized production glut, especially in EVs, that forces China to export excess output abroad.
Jiang says Chinese EVs are heavily subsidized, lose money, and exist amid overcapacity, so success in Canada would matter politically more than commercially.
Jiang argues that because China lacks domestic demand to absorb the subsidized EV output, it must export the excess abroad and sell into Europe at very cheap prices.
Jiang concludes that the basic problem remains poor state planning that produces excess capacity.
