Episodes
In this two-in-one episode, JJ, Zichen, and Yang cover two recent events that are hugely consequential to China's future. They are the Xi-Trump Summit in South Korea, which will shape China's external environment, and the 4th Plenum, which will chart China's domestic polices for the next 5 years.
Trump 2.0 has set off a more daunting trade war 2.0, threatening to throw the global economy into even more upheaval. As the world's second-largest economy, China so far has shown composure and cool-headedness, suggesting that it's treading carefully due to the enormous stake.
What's really in the mind of Beijing? How does it plan to navigate the treacherous waters ahead?

In an unexpected turn of events, a proposed ban on social media platform TikTok has prompted millions of users to look for another home.

China's Central Economic Work Conference, one of the most important central-level economic-related meetings has just concluded. What thinking on the economy was reflected by this meeting? What policies are expected to ensue afterward? Got China offers a quick take.
As Donald Trump is set to return to the White House, Got China connects with Chinese American physicist Steve Hsu (on X as @hsu_steve), to talk about what he think could be expected from the Trump second term, especially for the Chinese American community.
The mood in the Chinese market changed drastically after Beijing rolled out a series of heavyweight stimulant policies, leading to investors calling to buy ""everything" China.
In this episode, Got China examines the policies and explains why they have unleashed tremendous optimism in China and worldwide.
As the United States elected Donald Trump to serve his second term as the president, our guests share how that election result is viewed in Beijing and what may be in store for the next phase of the China-U.S. relationship.
Since the Third Plenum ended, everyone has had time to digest its result.
Has the meeting correctly identified the problems hindering the Chinese economy? Are the solutions it proposed feasible and effective? How will the Chinese government implement the proposed reforms?
In this episode, Yang, JJ, and Robert address these consequential questions and dive into many specific policies to present a panoramic view and an in-de...
