"You can't move the means of production, but you can move the memes of production."
Shenzhen has the world's best hardware building infrastructure.
But it's also rapidly brain-draining the people (memes) all over the world to go build there.
And now the US is banning immigrants like me while China opens its arms.
China is rapidly changing policies to make visas, travel, and business easier.

Talent is everything and nations will rise and fall based on their ability to attract the world's best.
If half the US discourse nowadays is about how scared they are of China, why are they building a wall that keeps out all the cracked people?
Isn't is obvious now all those cracked people will go find some other high tech, giant economy to go contribute to instead?
The memes of production are coming to the Greater Bay Area.
SZ and HK are about to have an absolute banger decade.
