tfw you're not talented enough to get poached by a Chinese firm

A striking example of how state-driven economies can out compete capitalist systems: "State funding for Chinese companies enables them to offer salaries beyond what Western companies can pay." This reveals a crucial advantage of centralized economic planning.

By leveraging state resources and prioritizing strategic sectors, governments in centrally planned economies can allocate funding where it matters most, including higher wages to attract and retain top talent. Unlike profit-driven capitalist enterprises that are bound by market constraints and shareholder demands, a state-led system can set long-term goals, absorb short-term losses, and maintain stability in ways that capitalism struggles to replicate.

This centralized approach allows for deliberate investment in key industries and ensures that resources are distributed not just to maximize profit but also to achieve objectives. It demonstrates that when competition isn't the driving force, a system can still deliver better outcomes for workers and industries alike.

I feel like this is probably anti-Chinese propaganda without any meaningful info contained. The Chinese govt setting up satellite companies to lure confused western engineers seems to align with classic conspiracy theories. Otherwise this is saying giant global firm Huawei will hire westerners which isn’t especially surprising considering their attempts to enter western markets.

Please Xi, make tech labor a seller’s market again 📈
