Musk snubs India PM, doubles down on China and Baidu. Tesla stock zooms.

Companies know: if you're in China, then nothing else matters. And if you're not in China, then nothing else matters.
Elon Musk of Tesla canceled a trip to India and a meeting with India's Prime Minister, and instead traveled to China to meet with Chinese Premier Li.
Tesla was approved to partner with Baidu, the giant search and mapping company, to deploy the world's most advanced driver-assistance software and mapping on Tesla's vehicles.
Tesla's stock raced higher on the news. Analysts believe that Tesla is signaling a change in strategy, away from plans to build new plants in India and Mexico, and going all-in on production from China. This is the same path shared by other carmakers, who are struggling to sell vehicles in China, but hope their Chinese factories will keep them competitive in global markets through exports.

India welcomes Musk’s money going into India with open arms, hugs and kisses and of course with flower rings stacking all over his neck until blocking his eyesight. If Tesla does make money in India, Musk also knows Indian government will change its laws to “protect” Tesla’s money from leaving India. Eventually, the beneficiary name of Tesla’s money would have to change from Musk to India. Of course the mega factory would have to sell it to Tata for 1/100 of the cost.

But still you needed an outlay to buy i dont know 10 or 20 brand new portable DVD players and then find people who wanted brand new japanese or HK spec region locked portable DVD players..... i mean its still a viable thing, you can easily set up a business if you wish selling Aliexpress items.... i found in the UK someone, a martial arts shop selling the OG Feiyue sneakers which are all the rage right now..... the OG Feiyue sneakers cost about 4 yuan!!!!! im not even joking and theyre comfy as hell! But theyre not as polished or nice looking or packaged or marketed etc! the shaolin monks and everyone in kungfu in china all wear these!!!! free runners in the west and barefoot runners are all talking about these but again its a trend and maybe abit of a bubble which might burst as im hearing theyre looking at other sneakers now... but i personally love these low tech / retro style sneakers

It's the basic difference between the US, where high-tech supremacy in military production, is the focus of the governement and China, where high-tech supremacy in civilian production is the focus of the government. There is a lot more bright minds working for civilian production than bright minds working for military production. So the flow of new ideas from the military minds to the civilian minds will always be lower and costlier than the flow of new ideas from the civilian minds to the military minds. I call this the R&D Quality/Price Ratio.

[@chriscain7333]

You woul be surprised how much money the military industrial complex pay each month, each project, each product to chinese suppliers.

​@@chriscain7333nah, I would be surprised by the value they pocketed compared to the value of the invoices from the Chinese suppliers. Must be minimums 100x judging by those 90k bushing. I saw in taobao a Chinese retailer selling the exact same bushing for 1 dollar. Imagine if you buy a container, it must be much cheaper.......

[@tonysu8860]

If that is what you think, you don't know America American technology or manufacturing. America makes superior military equipment because of the R&D that is invested in technology and the sciences, and the partnerships between public funded research and private enterprise. Rarely does the US government dictate specifications today... It does happen but for fewer and fewer projects. Today, US military equipment is mostly driven by the manufacturers offering products with features and then those projects are funded. This is probably all backwards from how China probably does procurement, I'm guessing that the government is telling the manufacturers what the government wants.

[@fowono2007]

[@richardwhitehouse8762]

What exactly did Li promise? I ask because I'm not clear. Sure there is some tie in with Baidu but if Tesla cannot export the Chinese market driving DATA then it's pointless. Is that what Li agreed to? Somehow I doubt it. What the Chinese are fantastic at is leverage. They gave Tesla unbelievable loans and land deals in order to secure the Shanghai factory. The small detail that seemed to pass a lot of people by (myself included until recently) was the requirement for Tesla to use 95% Chinese made parts by 2022. Essentially they lured Tesla in order to supercharge their own efforts to build a credible supply chain. It worked. 2 years later Musk himself went public saying that no-one could compete against Chinese evs without tariffs. I think that Tesla will end up being pinched at both the high end and the low end of the market and then squeezed out of the middle. Put simply, they can't get new models to market quickly enough. Model 3 and Y are already ageing and can't offer what others do in terms of driver luxury, particularly in China. So, although priced as luxury cars they are not offering that. And they definitely won't be able to compete in cheaper end of the market simply because they won't be able to get new models out quickly enough, whatever Elon says. Which leaves the Model 3 and Y trying to slug it out in the congested mid-market, where they are over-priced and under equipped.

Their corrupted government official will milk off billion of dollars from any big corporations that set up factory in india. Then they will split the ill-gotten money among themselves and start to migrate out of india. That's why you can see so many rich india living outside of India living in big house and driving big car.

Why can't other Chinese cars use Baidu as well for Fsd?

[@donkeykong516]

There’s nothing in India that matters

[@Zerpentsa6598]

When Musk goes to China, Tesla stocks go up. When Musk visits India, Tesla stocks dive in price.

[@pagan-540]

China great powerful economic power. Baidu fastest Chinese tesla.

[@AnnieT369]

What a shame he cancelled India. I was looking forward to seeing what will happen to Tesla if Musk opens a factory in India.

[@chestnutridge4187]

Who will buy?

[@rcbrascan]

Tesla probably doesn't want to end up like Apple where it moved a portion of its manufacturing to India and lost the loyalty of Chinese consumers.

[@blackknight4996]

Elon has never been serious on India .... just play Modi around like a pet...

[@q3813]

Canceled India was a smart move. 😅

[@WorldSpaceRace]

Elon will run for his life from India just like Tim Cook... Lol.. 😂

[@WanderingSword]

doing business in India is like trying to walk across a field of snakes, you'll get bitten at some point

[@dexterminador]

It is not about business or the useless underdeveloped infrastructure: Musk is not willing to pay bribes. In India you have to pay "unexpected additional" fees...

Please don't let Palki Sharma watch this video or she will go straight into ICU

[@CarpsterKing]

There goes my only possession. There goes my only Tesla ...Modi must be singing this song and crying... a joyful anticipation turned into a big disappointment ...

[@vancat6232]

Is it a hard decision to make?🤣

[@Easyly1953]

Well, musk also snubbed Indonesia a major nickel producer, opening doors for byd and others to rush in.

[@jazening3075]

Engdia must be pissed off. It’s all about integrity but Engdia has never bit into a piece of humble pie yet because Engdia is still not completely sovereign but still thinks like an Anglo-Saxon with Asian DNA. The mindset is not quite there yet for Engdia. Hopefully, that will change someday but I wouldn’t hold my breath. It’s good that Engdia has decided to leave now rather than later to stay with the BRICS+ NATIONS. TEAM CHINA NOW AND FOREVER ALL THE WAY.👍🙂

[@tomiputra3720]

He need to make a cheap Tesla car and only China can help him

[@dennyli9339]

Tesla will not invest in India, there is "no" market!

[@lzeng78]

!!!

[@amardeepsidhu2871]

Nobody buying Tesla in USA Toyota can’t even keep hybrid in dealership selling like hot cakes.

[@mluiza111]

Looks like Musk will have to give up Tesla anyway. He can’t compete. This is the first step to sell .
