How Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan set off a new wave of US-China electronic warfare

Chinese and the US forces were locked in a reconnaissance and electronic warfare tussle in the lead-up to and after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan, according to military sources and defence analysts.

But not all of it was successful, according to sources close to the Chinese military.

State broadcaster CCTV reported the Chinese military used naval and air forces in multiple locations to conduct “full tracking and surveillance” against the US Air Force transport aircraft flying Pelosi and her delegation from Kuala Lumpur to Taipei on August 2.

The tracking was aimed at “deterrence”, the report quoted PLA Major General Meng Xiangqing, from the PLA National Defence University, as saying.

However a source said the People’s Liberation Army’s tracking efforts – which involved jets and Type 055 destroyers – failed.

“The PLA deployed some electronic warfare aircraft such as the J-16D and warships to try to locate Pelosi’s aircraft, but were not successful,” the source said.

“Almost all the PLA electronic warfare equipment couldn’t work properly because they were all jammed by electronic interference by the American aircraft strike group sent by the Pentagon to escort her.”

On the flight, Pelosi’s aircraft took an unusually circuitous route by heading southeast towards the Indonesian part of Borneo, then turning north to fly along the eastern part of the Philippines.

He Yuan Ming, an independent airpower analyst, said it was not surprising that the Chinese vessels did not detect the flight.

“Even if the Type 055 [destroyer’s] radar is said to be 500km (310 miles), its effective range in the real world would be much less,” he said.

“Couple this with the vast operating area as well as the Type 055’s relative newness both in terms of its hardware [capabilities] and software [crew], there should be little surprise that the PLA [naval] cruiser could not locate [Pelosi’s plane].”

Chinese hair salon creative director mows down pedestrians as revenge for his failed investment

A driver drove his luxury car into a crowd, killing five people, in Dalian, Northeast China's Liaoning Province on Saturday over a failed investment.

China's Global Times reported that the driver, who was driving a black BMW, also injured five others.

Quoting Dalian Public Security Bureau deputy director-general Qu Bo in a press conference, the suspect was said to have done it as an act of revenge on society after an investment failure.

In the 11.40am incident on Saturday, the suspect, surnamed Liu, driving his BMW along Tangshan Street to the intersection of Wuhui Road suddenly accelerated to 108 kilometers per hour in seven seconds, rushed through red lights and rammed into passers-by at a pedestrian crossing.

Police said the road's speed limit is 60 kilometers per hour.

Initial investigations had ruled out drunk driving, drugs or psychiatric illness as the cause and the suspect was said to be of clear mind when committing the crime.

The suspect has been held for further investigations on the charge of endangering public safety.

Meanwhile, Sina.com reported that the suspect formerly worked as a hairdressing salon's design director before it closed down recently.

Known as King in the saloon, Liu, who hails from Jilin, joined them in 2013.

The salon which has four branches in Dalian, was forced to close down two months ago after it went bankrupt.

Xi’s push against Ma poses new threat to Chinese tech companies

Chinese tech companies did a pretty good job convincing global investors that they operated independently from the Communist Party. Now, Jack Ma has become a case study for the firms’ biggest skeptics.

Companies from Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. to Tencent Holdings Ltd. splashed out billions on overseas acquisitions while developing apps and technologies that challenged Western rivals, with little or no state interference. But Beijing’s pursuit of Ma and his Ant Group Co. after he criticized regulators arguably plays directly into the hands of China’s biggest critics in Washington, who have long asserted that no Chinese tech giant or entrepreneur is beyond the reach of Xi Jinping.

U.S. authorities are now debating whether to ban investments in Alibaba and Tencent, according to people familiar with the matter, in what would be a dramatic blow to two of the companies whose shares are most widely held by global investors. Already on Tuesday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning transactions with eight Chinese software applications including Ant’s Alipay, and Tencent’s WeChat Pay, citing concerns that Beijing will have access to the data collected by the platforms. “I stand with President Trump’s commitment to protecting the privacy and security of Americans from threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party,” Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said in a statement on the order.

Beijing’s moves could raise pressure on the incoming Joe Biden administration to push through further action detrimental to China, though it’s not clear how much of Trump’s aggressive policies the president-elect will continue.

The party’s sway over business has become even clearer over the past 12 months as Xi pushes to consolidate power ahead of next year’s big party congress, when he’s expected to extend his rule for at least another five years. Covid-19 has only served to strengthen his grip, fueling a war-like campaign to steer the economy back on track and snuff out perceived threats to national security.

“You need to be very mindful of who ultimately controls regulations, who controls licensing -- of who’s in charge,” said Mark Natkin, managing director of Beijing-based Marbridge Consulting. “And if you forget and you start to be overly critical or take too much of a role that normally belongs to the party, then you’re going to get chopped down a notch or two.”

Beijing has moved to fundamentally overhaul Ma’s trillion-dollar internet empire since demolishing Ant’s $35 billion public offering in November, a record-breaking debut that was to have been the entrepreneur’s crowning achievement. Authorities then forced his online finance titan to cap loans and devise a plan to hive off its most lucrative businesses. The government also launched a probe into alleged anti-competitive practices at Alibaba. The billionaire has not been seen in public since November and his absence from the recent taping of an African TV program he created spurred speculation of his whereabouts.

“There is a lot of power in the Chinese government’s economic and financial management infrastructure, and if Ant was going to erode that power, important people would see it as a step too far,” said Graham Webster, editor of the DigiChina project at the Stanford Cyber Policy Center. But “the Chinese government also prizes these leading companies as drivers of technological independence. The party would have to perceive significant threats to tear them down.”

The action against Ma sends the latest signal that Beijing feels emboldened to risk international fallout from measures meant to address domestic challenges. Xi has previously defied threats of U.S. sanctions to impose sweeping national security legislation on the former British colony of Hong Kong. Crushing Ant’s IPO risked alienating a plethora of powerful global financiers from Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund to Carlyle.

The U.S. has also cited concerns about Chinese government influence over private industry to justify its efforts to force ByteDance Ltd. to sell the American share of its TikTok social network and the global campaign to convince allies to swear off equipment made by Huawei Technologies Co. Supporters of such actions often cite Chinese policies such as a 2017 law that requires companies to “support, assist and cooperate” with intelligence agencies.

Like Huawei, Ant has also asserted its independence from the Chinese government, saying in a 2017 application to the U.S. securities regulator that it is “a private sector company and while a handful of Chinese state-owned or -affiliated funds own non-controlling minority stakes, they do not participate in company management.”

The party has long reached into private firms, including foreign ones operating in China. One way it does that is through the presence of party committees in companies, among them tech enterprises, that are made up of employees.

In addition, it dispatches officials to companies to oversee certain activities. Many tech leaders are also party members, including Ma, Lenovo founder Liu Chuanzhi and Huawei’s Ren Zhengfei. Tencent’s Pony Ma and Xiaomi Corp.’s Lei Jun are both delegates to the National People’s Congress.

The party also stepped in on several occasions to punish executives for mismanagement, including Anbang Insurance Group’s Wu Xiaohui.

But recent efforts to exert government influence over companies and intervene in the business landscape have reached new levels. That’s provided fuel to the China hawks in Washington, who argue that the party exerts too much influence over Chinese companies.

Xi needs business executives on his side to achieve strategic goals such as the “dual-circulation” economic plan focused on domestic consumption, developing secure supply chains and reducing reliance on foreign technology. While the world’s second-largest economy was the first to rebound from Covid-19, its recovery is showing signs of peaking even as global growth remains sluggish and ties with the U.S. stay fraught.

In a rare direct plea to the business sector in July, Xi called on executives including those from the tech industry to be more patriotic and help the post-pandemic economic recovery. “Outstanding entrepreneurs must have a strong sense of mission and responsibility for the nation, and align their businesses’ development with the prosperity of the nation and the happiness of the people,” he said.

Weeks later, the party revealed plans to tighten control over the private sector by extending its United Front networking operations further into the business community. The policy will “strengthen ideological guidance” and “create a core group of private sector leaders who can be relied upon during critical times,” according to guidelines published at the time.

“Under President Xi, the CCP has tightened its grip over tech companies and doubled down on its techno-nationalist initiatives,” researcher Alex Capri wrote in a recent report for the Hinrich Foundation. “In addition to placing party officials within prominent companies, it continues to neuter high profile corporate executives where there is the perception that they were operating independently from party directive or becoming too influential.”

Huawei sourcing mobile chips from MediaTek and UNISOC to beat U.S trade ban

Huawei has approached two Asian chip suppliers to keep its smartphone business alive after TSMC stopped taking new orders and the U.S blocked its access to chip manufacturers who use U.S software and technology.

Sources familiar with the matter told Nikkei Asian Review that Huawei is in talks with MediaTek and UNISOC to buy more mobile chips. MediaTek is the world's second biggest mobile chip developer after Qualcomm, and UNISOC is the second biggest mobile chip designer in China. 

As MediaTek is already supplying chipsets for Huawei's mid to entry-level 4G phones, Huawei is hoping to secure orders for the higher-end 5G mobile chips to power its flagship phones. The chip maker is also assessing whether it has enough human resources to support; Huawei is apparently requesting for volume 300% above the usual procurement in the past few years.

"Huawei has foreseen this day coming. It started to allocate more mid- to low-end mobile chip projects to MediaTek last year amid its de-Americanization efforts," one of the sources said. "Huawei has also become one of the key clients for the Taiwanese mobile chip developer's mid-end 5G mobile chip for this year."

Huawei is looking to strengthen its collaboration with Beijing-backed mobile chip developer UNISOC. UNISOC previously supplied a small number of chipsets for Huawei's entry-level phones and tablets. The mobile chip developer is said to have accelerated its 5G chip development last year to catch up with Qualcomm and MediaTek.

For now, Huawei is believed to have enough inventories of chipsets to last till the end of the year. If it has to switch to chipsets from MediaTek and UNISOC, it would be hard for Huawei to differentiate its high-end flagship phones from the likes of Oppo and Xiaomi which use similiar chipsets.
