"R. o. k. e. r. dot com slash twist. And while. you're there. Get an extra ten percent off using the offer code. Twist who guessed okay. Let's get back this amazing episode okay. The wall street journal just released an article detailing more about jack mas disappearance in china. Here's the quote at the top of the article. Technological disruption once seen as a useful prod for china to catch up with the west has been recast as a threat to the ruling communist party in other words. As we've talked about on the all in podcast in here on this week in startups. China was leveraging entrepreneurship and capitalism and startups to create wealth prosperity jobs and be competitive with the democratic west however those leaders have become so powerful that they threatened. The communist party essentially the dictators in china. Jack ma the billionaire cofounder of alibaba and founder of its spinout. Aunt group didn't agree with this and acted more like an american tech entrepreneur than a chinese citizen And basically challenged authority and challenged the thinking in china as if he was bezos or bill gates Or a number of outspoken entrepreneurs here in american. According from the wall street journal g jingping china's most powerful leader in decades is rewriting the rules of business for the world's second largest economy. Okay so according to the wall street journal. Jack ma and i'm just quoting from the wall. Street journal have lost an appreciation for the risks of falling out of step. He tuned out warnings for years. According to people close with jack he didn't really think that he was operating in an authoritarian country. A communist country the warning signs with eric. He ignored them Basically lost an appreciation for the risks and He went rogue so jack. Ma disappeared for almost three months starting in november of twenty twenty after criticizing the chinese banking regulators for hampering innovation and one of the number one things about the chinese culture and the communist party's goals is to have harmony and if you're criticizing them in their rules that is going to lead to discord and it is not can lead to harmony so after moss comments to ccp blocked and troops thirty five billion dollars. Ipo which would have been the largest ipo ever in the following months and group has since been forced to restructure him lost over half its value after fidelity cut it's implied valuation from three hundred billion to one hundred and forty four billion. According to business insider china's most booming company was about to set a world record. I'll think about that and the ccp. Shut it down. Due to what any american would consider like criticism. This is an important moment for everybody to consider how lucky we are to be americans and to live in a democratic free society. Literally you could spend your life decades building an amazing company be at the finish line on the one yard line and then disappeared and have your company taken from you and your ipo basically halted So they basically say in the wall street journal that now. Jackdaws playing golf according to people familiar with the matter reading towers tax. So here's another question. That wall street journal article. He hired a teacher to learn oil painting starting out with images of birds and flowers and then shifting to it abstracts tile according to these people and photos of his artwork viewed by the wall street journal. Okay this is absolutely bonkers. He is not oil painting. He is not golfing. He's under house arrest. He's being reeducated. I am almost certain. This is probably something that Was you know made up. Or maybe he is doing this and they told him taking up oil painting and golf. And if we see you speaking out against the chinese communist party again You're gonna go to jail. It's that simple if you'll put three million liters in jail simply for being muslim And torture them and make them pick out in fields. I don't think you're gonna have much sympathy for a billionaire so A beijing official quoted in the wall street journal believes that jack ma should have been more focused on quote giving back to the party instead of just focusing on his own interest again all poppy syndrome in china. It's about the society. It's about harmony. It is not about your individual achievement which is the definition of capitalism capitalism is a brutal competition and whoever wins gets lauded as the victor and whoever loses gets to start again and maybe Fight the battle again. But we like to celebrate the winners and we like to have winners and losers. We like to have equal opportunity. Capitalism is a beautiful system. It's got some margin on the edges. I talked about that in my new book. Which i've been writing while i'm here in italy and the book will be coming out next year. And you're gonna. I think you're going to really enjoy some of the some of the topics covering it. The article also notes that there are a lot of claims rather than the fact supporting what jack ma is actually up to now and what happened before the disappearance quote mr mas spokesperson said details about mr mas activities reported by the journal weren't based on facts but rather on unsubstantiated opinions and or third hand observations and didn't comment further. Okay let's pause for a second. Why would somebody say he was oil painting golf. Jackpot could say that c could say that somebody who's trying to make peace between the two parties can be saying that the total mess and the bigger picture here is china leverage capitalism to build this amazing system and then jingping looked at it and said you know what i'm in charge and i don't stop these entrepreneurs now. Capitalism is such a powerful force. China's gonna turn into a democracy. That was the road they were on and now she shing has taken. All the capitalists out of the running just like other countries whether it was putin in russia or nbs and saudi arabia authoritarians do not want competition from high profile entrepreneurs basically communism and dictatorships are not compatible long-term with capitalism. because we've learned that the world loves capitalism. They love entrepreneurs. They love innovation whether your a person in china in saudi arabia russia america or in the uk. Wherever you are seeing somebody build something and come from nothing is so intoxicating that could actually topple a dictator and a communist party. That is what. This experiment has proven. We just ran one of the most important experiments in the history of humanity who is going to win capitalism and democracy that pairing or authoritarianism and capitalism guess what authoritarianism dictatorships communist parties plus. Capitalism doesn't.

"It's this idea that when you're an adult you're you're forced to work and take everything super seriously. Which isn't true or this movie tries to make the point that even though you're adult you don't need to always be an adult. You can remain a kid at heart like that. That is totally allowed. That's not breaking any rules And i and. I have this written here as well. He's only able to understand what it means to be creative at this point once. He spends time with eric so once he's able to bond and learn from the youth character of eric. That is when he becomes in tune with his inner youthfulness. So eric able to help him to loosen up. Be be able to learn how to play game Be created the. There's this whole scene. So funny and charming where they're basically adjuster and a king and they need to feed the dragon. And he's like oh. I'm just a toothpick for the dragon. And it's it's like this is very funny and it's very it's i mean it's not like laugh out loud funny. It's one of those things that will it'll make you go 'cause it's like it's like cute funny. It's not particularly humorous. But i get. I what i'm trying to say But yes so. I think it really. Henry's character is so important to this plot. Because molly has to talk to eric and henry and t- to eric. She has to say listen. I can't be just a little kid anymore but to henry she's like i don't want to be fully an adult yet. So it's this middle ground in this clash between the three now. Where does mr magori. i'm fit in. Mr magori on. And this is what i have for him because i feel like those other three really represent three stages of life. So where does where does the titular character himself fit into this theory. Well i'm glad you asked so mr. Ma gloria represents the cycle of youth and creativity itself. What so. let's. Let's break this down a little bit further. He doesn't represent a specific age group necessarily but serves as a reminder that at any age you are allowed to have fun. so yeah Mister magori i'm is symbolic of youth himself and the way that he is able to conduct himself. So basically when you think about how. He interacts with with eric. He's very close with eric. Because eric in so youth. And i guess you could say what youthfulness or fun or whatever mag creativity. I guess you could say they know each other very well youth and creativity so those go together very well. There's a big You know he brings in the adult. Where in it's this. It's his attempt to show an adult that you can be creative but also that you know in an every bit of area where there's a lot of fun being. Had you also need to remember that you need a break from having fun all the time because fun all the time is will i mean no work. All play makes jack a dull boy. I i'm that was completely a. I'm sorry i don't. I don't know where i was going with that but basically Then 'cause you look at mr magoo rooms relationship with molly which is pretty much the crux of of the story itself this whole time..

She holds it against her forehead and she says they thought that these we cared about each other me and the other kids. I thought i thought that if grownups didn't care about us if the people at the orphanage didn't care about us at least we had each other. But that was. I mean if an opportunity came to leave then you took it. It was terrible there. Everyone wanted to leave and everyone did. And no one thought it. No one no one cared enough to stay or even to come back in to try and make things better and that was what happened with jamie and and that was what happened with me. I did the same thing i can. I could go back there right now. But i'm not going to. Andrew people are selfish keats. Yeah i know that if something comes by and he had the opportunity to leave to metro make something better you take. Everyone is in the desk. I though that shouldn't be like that. Shouldn't he's only one thing you can do. Valley is either go back and change it or try and pretend it doesn't happen. I don't think that's true. Yeah people are selfish and no andrew. You shouldn't feel bad about not going back to orphanage you've got up. Whether it was a good situation or a bad situation you had to move forward and that's fine you don't beat yourself up for that you should never feel bad about removing yourself from a bad situation even if you have to leave behind some people that were important to you.

"When it comes to regulating big tack europe has been taking an aggressive stance for a while now and as we talked about on the show. We've seen some action from the us as well but lately china has made moves to join in our reporter. Sam schechner joins me from paris. To talk about why china is getting involved now. What it's doing and what impact could be protect companies. Hey sam thanks for being here. Thanks for having me so before we get to china's action. I wanted to start by bringing us up to speed. European regulators have really been leading the charge when it comes to regulating tack. What have they been focusing on your right. That europe has really been at the leading edge. A lot of these these types of new rules europe's new privacy law the gdp our general data protection regulation was one of the first of the of a new class of transversal privacy laws. And that's actually been emulated in a number of parts of the world. Europe has also been among the first to initiate antitrust investigations into big companies including google and apple amazon and actually has issued decisions against google totaling more than nine billion dollars with fines in recent years and now europe is also helping lead the charge when it comes to coming up with new competition regulations. It's something that's been bubbling in academic circles for quite a while whether or not there's a handful of companies that are so big that they need their own special rules to make sure that they treat everyone fairly to make sure that companies have a chance to rise up and challenge them and the he us antitrust are also in charge of new digital regulation. Here margaret avesta your actually describe it with a metaphor to the automobile. She said that when cars were first invented it a new technology and after some period of time people realize that maybe we need traffic lights right and a lot of action clearly stemming from from that sort of mindset. We've also seen some action in the us as well right. There is indeed some momentum in the us four new competition rules you know given the political environment and some of the differences between democrats and republicans. It's not clear that there'll be an agreement that being said last summer. Democrats in the house. Judiciary committee released a report calling for changes to antitrust laws and creation of new types of obligations and republicans in their own report actually endorsed albeit a narrower set of changes but some areas of agreement such as requirements tech. Giant's make their services interoperable so there is the possibility that some types of legislation might see the light of day in the us dot. So that's sort of the lay of the land but china has also recently joined the push with some new proposals. What do they unveil well. That's right in. November china issued its first draft guidelines for how they want to regulate competitive behavior by digital giants and on paper the guidelines are actually very similar to some of the things that have come out in europe. The uk also has a set of regulations for big tech companies that the proposed and china's proposals include things like blocking companies from crunching consumer data in order to set discriminatory prices or at selling prices below cost to help gain market share. Some of the classic things that might be anti competitive more generally but that big companies are accused of doing and in potentially more difficult to identify with this. And i understand. China has a pretty short history with the sort of regulation. Why are they getting involved now. Well on one hand. China has one of the shortest histories of antitrust regulation of major global economies only adopted its anti-monopoly law in two thousand eight but more cynically. Some people have noted that this push began just slightly after an october speech from alibaba founder. Jack ma who publicly lashed out at the chinese government's tight financial regulations and following that there were a series of regulatory actions against elements of his internet empire. And so the question has been raised when you talk to. Experts is this chinese. Push about really trying to rein in big tech companies to preserve competition. Or is it about taking on people. Like mr ma who they think are challenging the power of the central government. And you know when you talk to when you talk to experts. They say that mon- speech may have been the trigger but that there have been longstanding concerns about increasing concentration among the chinese internet giants including including alibaba but also other companies to rate and since alibaba is one of china's biggest most powerful companies. Making jack ma. One of china's most powerful businessmen. This sort of illustrates broader difference between china and some of the other countries that we've talked about you know. China wants to exert a lot more control over attack and the internet then does the west could barrier in terms of getting different governments on the same page. Well that's a very good question you know we. We really don't know what the long term impacts are going to be of these rules. I mean for one thing. They haven't actually been applied yet. These are proposals and you're right that china's internet is largely dominated by its own set of companies not by global giants and chinese internet. Companies are much less present overseas. So you know it's it's a question. How much one regulatory system or the other will end up prevailing. There are certainly more countries in china's orbit that could end up adopting china's approach to internet regulation but in some cases in some senses that there's similar motivations behind what's going on. I mean whether you're trying to preserve state power for its own sake or because you want to make sure that there can be a new set of companies that come up to challenge. I mean those are still it boils down to saying certain companies have gotten too big and something needs to be done about them and so the more that those sorts of rules are being proposed. It certainly would count as momentum for them. And you know it's not a it's not a given that these things will be done so momentum is meaningful. i mean you. You have free market proponents. Who argue that. These types of proposals go too far that they would hobble digital markets and leave some people worse off so while there is a growing number of experts and competition regulators who say we might need rules like this they certainly aren't unopposed. So china's entry into the fray could potentially impact the course of the debate. Yeah and just to take further. What's the outlook for big tech. Now that china's join this push and how are the company is responding. Well i think big tech. Is these big tech. Giants are increasingly aware that they're going to be facing more regulation whether it's about privacy whether it's you know updates to tax rules whether it's about their obligations to other companies in terms of new competition regulations. It's just a fact of life. And so i think at this point. They're they're now down to figuring out how to make sure that these rules are ones that they can live with. You know when you talk to facebook they sort of are perhaps the most acquiescent saying that we acknowledge these types of rules must apply to us. Amazon and google say more that they would hope that rules that would be rules that apply to all companies not trying to focus on a few. But i think it's it's certainly fair to say that these companies are going to find themselves much more regulated and they have at the last couple decades have been a sort of open playing field for them. It seems likely that they're going to find their their field of action more limited. They may have time doing the same kinds of acquisitions that they had done before. Or certainly will face more scrutiny. Before they're able to complete them. Some regulations on the table could in the case of repeated non-compliance go as far as breakup. I think really the us would have to get more into the game for that to to truly be on the table. Indeed the ftc's suit against facebook last year did specifically talk about unwinding some of facebook's acquisitions

Seeing gains right now in Hong Kong, Paul it's amazing the market there had been frustrated and not being able to break through the 30,000 level. It did momentarily and as I speak, I guess we've cracked below that number right now. It does seem to be a psychological barrier, doesn't it? It's just not about 15 points away there, but some staggering gains We've seen from the hang saying this week. I believe up 5% for the week on absolute wall of money flowing in from China, But the really intriguing thing for me today daggers Ali Baba Sort of big popping the ideas in the US, But right now, Ali Baba off almost 2.5%. Despite the reappearance of Jack Ma. The year we were the 80 yards here in New York, Paul, we're up about 5.5%. All because of a video, You know, I guess he had been absent. For some time, there were a lot of concerns. We know where the Chinese government has been doing with respect to Mr Mas Internet empire, So maybe it was a little bit of a sigh of relief first breathed yesterday in Hong Kong and then Later in New York, But you're right. The stock is down about 2.5% Give me your view on the data that we had for Australia employment. I mean, that was a pretty decent number. I think we can agree 50,000. Yeah, definitely. That was really encouraging. Thea unemployment rate itself. I'm sure we will hear some crawling from the government. A little later on there was a beat. In fact, her falling to 6.6% was expected to be 6.7. So that was some good news. 50,000 jobs added there. That was bang on estimates, but some quality of employment there as well. 37,000 of those were full time. This isn't unusual for the month of December, though we do often see a pop in the hiring just before the holiday season, so that was In terms of a surprise. It wasn't a huge surprise, but very welcome one but unemployment still 93,000 below pre pandemic level so little bit to claw back yet. But we have seen some decent gains in the area six today up 7/10 of 1% of the Aussie performing pretty strongly as well, Just hovering below one of eight right now. What are you seeing in currencies? Well, I'm seeing a dollar weakness. That was certainly the story here in New York, where the Bloomberg dollars spot index dropped about. 2/10 of 1% were down another 1/10 of 1%. Right now. We were talking to Ken Wong earlier about the strength of the Chinese one. We're essentially flat against the dollar at 6 46 spot. 46 want to take you to Washington, D C to the celebrating America Inaugural program. And we'll get comments right now from Vice President Kamila Harris, who she has just been intro owed. And let's take you there now. Vice president of the United States Kamila D. Harris. Good evening. It is my honor to be here to stand on the shoulders of those who came before to speak tonight as your vice president. In many ways, this moment embodies our character as a nation. Demonstrates who we are, even in dark times. We not only dream we do we not only see what has been We see what can be way shoot for the moon, and then we plant our flag on it. We are bold, fearless and ambitious way are undaunted in our belief that we shall overcome. That we will rise up. This is American aspiration. In the middle of the civil war, Abraham Lincoln saw a better future and built it with land grant colleges and the transcontinental railroad in the middle of the civil rights movement. Dr King fought for racial justice and economic justice. American aspiration is what drove the women of this nation throughout history to demand equal rights and the authors of the bill of Rights. Claimed freedoms that had rarely been written down before. A great experiment takes great determination. The will to do the work and then the wisdom to keep refining. Keep tinkering. Keep perfecting.

My state All states need help to ruin layoffs of teachers and firefighters and sanitation workers and Children Service workers. I'm glad President elect Biden understands that is calling from that $350 billion in new laid. Just if you would Senator Sherrod Brown of Ohio briefly what one of the cost of our country fails to make this investment and local and state governments? Well, we're already seeing substantial layoffs of teachers and with budget shortfalls, we're going to see Further layoffs of essential workers, including policemen and firefighters and sanitation workers, and not only is this going to be a further hardship for these essential workers in the communities that they serve, But it's also going to have ripple effects through the economy as they contract they're spending and create further job losses throughout the economy.

What One metrics that I do Think is useful to keep in mind Is Theo interest burden off the dead, which share of our economy of GDP is going to pay interest on the debt. The higher that gets, the more we fund. We have to use tax revenue just to pay the interest on the debt, and eventually that can lead to having to curtail other surfaces of theirs. Sending or eventually, really, to run away dead accumulation. That would be an unsustainable path, You know, very low interest rate environment like we're in. What we're seeing is that even though the amount of debt relative to the economy is going up Interest burden hasn't so I would keep the interest burden in mind is a metric right now, With slow but longer term, we have to make sure the deficits that we run in the federal budget are consistent with stability in that kind of ratio. Treasury secretary nominee Janet Yellen Admit that we have found a earlier warning sign because once interest rates for taking up in some ways, it's too late because you have so much debt that's there in the interest rates begin to take out if you find that moment where it's unsustainable rapidly gets worse, made a common interview. 2018 that I want to be able to follow up with you on it in this particular interview, said United States that path was unsustainable and the fact that magic one I would raise taxes and cut retirement spending. Do you remember what you meant by that? The comment that you made in 2018, and I don't want to. I'm not playing quiz show with you to try to go back in the Babel review that, but I want to know just your perspective and 2018..

"mr ma" Discussed on WJR 760
"O'clock here on this Wednesday morning edition of the Paul W. Smith Show on W. J. R. I made my impassioned plea once again for us all to to think about not only our own pain and suffering through this pandemic, but especially The kids. The kids who should be in school who actually want to be in school? Wish they were in school and their suffering greatly and having more anxiety and having the need to Of thankfully they're there to speak to counselors and therapists and and people that are out there to help those that can get the help. Also talked about how tough it is on teachers. Um, you know, there's some people that take shots at him. I love Tucker Carlson. But he was taking a shot of the teacher and probably rightfully so who was off on vacation somewhere? Never wanting to go back into the classroom because they didn't wanna be. Infected and all of that stuff, But most teachers Care and are concerned and worried about their students, their kids. And taking that moment to remember the teachers. Remember the students remember mental health? And schools touched one of our regular listeners. Regular guests, Tom Watkins. Who on two counts here as former state school superintendent and former CEO of the Detroit Wayne County Mental Health Authority and an expert By the way on China. In fact, he wrote me a note saying, If you would've mentioned China, you would've had the trifecta. Well, I did, in fact mentioned China. And Mr Ma, who's missing. But that's another story. The guy is Tom Watkins, who we depend on all the time and mostly, frankly, we've depended on him talking about China. But today it's about mental health. And how everyone is affected, and we should all understand that. And I don't know. Bring along some patients and bring along some help and guidance that Tom always nice to hear from You even nicer to always know that you're listening. Thank you, sir. It's good to be with you. Part of you and again. Thank you for Beijing. This very important issue. You know, our schools are the true statue of liberty of this great country of ours. There's not another institution on America today that truly takes the tire. The hungry, the poor, the huddled masses, people that speak English as a second language and Children with disabilities and give them hope. An opportunity and our great teacher do believe that our schools of the Statue of Liberty, our teachers are the torch lighting the way for us all And today, with covert schools being out for a song that been going back and forth between in person online education has been a strain on students, teachers. Hand parents and so recognizing this and making sure that we're you know, clearly focusing on the three R's there reading writing arithmetic, but also the emotional support. Off our students during this tough, tough time that they're all facing. Ended up and I think we can't remind ourselves and others that enough and doing all we can, as you put it to lift up our teachers. Are are stay at home Moms are moms and dads, but it always falls mostly on the moms that have a job outside of the house that they're doing from the house, but also all of the responsibilities of the in school learning and the regular Responsibilities moms have in the house. It's tough on everyone. You had a nice piece. That you wrote to Tom Watkins. I don't have it right in front of me at the moment, but its memories Grandpa Tom and Dylan. And you say from this from Dealing with your 2.5 year old grandson. You were helping out providing childcare for if you will, and it really opened your eyes gave you kind of a greater appreciation. For moms and teachers, A lot of people probably dealing with that and should take a moment to understand that as well, tell me about your experience time. Well, it was one of those things. That building's been tremendous memories with one of my Three grandson, But Dylan, a real character a joy to be with, But you know, God made childbirth for young people for a reason. And my agent being with 2.5 year old all day long. I was tired. I mean, just thinking about the experience makes me tired and butter rekindles the love and the special memories. We made a pact to really reinforcing how tough it is for. Our moms that are taking care of the Children and all some time taking care of the household and working a full time while certainly these were some great memories that were made I A t the end of the day, I'd longed for the nap. My grandson never wanted to take Grandpa Tom certainly needed by the end of the day. Lonely. Imagine, since we have you and you're an expert in these three areas, at least for us. I think you're probably quite the expert and being a grandpa, too. Tom Watkins, former state school superintendent, former CEO of the Detroit Wayne County Mental Health Authority and expert on China. Let's get to that third leg of the stool. If you will. China. And I suspect You are happy that there appears to be A better opportunity for a better relationship, although I suggest that the new administration tread lightly and in an intelligent way when they're dealing with China, but that I guess goes without saying, but I said it, but you do look forward to a better relationship with China or so it would seem Well, I think that we have to China makes up 1/5 of all humanity. Second largest world economy coming on strong, perhaps, of pass us. In the next five years. So what happens in China? As we've talked about many times? Paul doesn't stay in China s O. What we need to do is to build a relationship that takes care of America's national interest. Clearly focusing on that. And I expect Joe Biden will continue to put pressure on China to comply with the rules regulations that are set up for all countries and at the same time building alliances which Japan and me in Europe in the like so that we can really come together with our allies. Uh, to to assure the China's plan by the rules. This happens to be 1/100 anniversary of the founding of the Chinese Communist Party. On they've bought over 800 million people from abject poverty to the middle class on that has an impact one. What's happening to us here in Michigan in America, So I I hope that we can build a better relationship with China but wants to keep our national interests at the forefront. What we have to bear in mind is they are a different people with a different culture, different philosophy, different way of doing what they do compared to us In the example I gave yesterday that you probably didn't hear early on. Was of Mr Mas, the founder of whether said Alibaba, and he's a billionaire, and he he made the comment that they need to Kind of fix or update or change the way they look at business and some other things, and he disappeared after doing that. Hasn't been seen since October. And it's not the first time that anyone who shows any disagreement with the Chinese government their fate is generally not very good. Yeah, that there's questions about whether he's keeping a low profile for is what they say. In China. He's been taken in for tea, which is usually lose both having having tea with the Chinese Communist Party. But clearly there's a number of challenges we face with China. China, you know, had a century humiliation from 18 49 to 1949 the last 40 years they've come on, like gangbusters on dare feeling their oats today and so navigating this relationship with China is gonna impact the people of China the people of the United States, So that matter All of humanity, So we need smart strategic leadership. We also need part of you rather than just talking about what we're gonna do, uh, to thwart China's rise. Is to really talk about how we invest in the people of America. When we invest in education research development technology, we can out compete anybody around the world and so investing in the American people needs to be part of our strategy. To assure that China's rise doesn't come on America's demise. Absolutely correct. You've said it all along on, but that's something we do have to remember. What happens in China does not stay in China. We doubt know.

Renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma praises youth commitment to climate action
"This is Deanne pen with UN news young people have been leading the push for action to address climate change the theme for this year's celebration of the International Day of peace. The twenty first of September among their biggest admirers is the world renowned cellist Yo-yo Ma who was at U N headquarters on Friday for the annual ceremony Loni to commemorate the day as a UN ambassador for Peace Mr Ma Inspires young people to support the organization's efforts to address climate change and other pressing issues such as hunger and HIV and AIDS. Li Ling Long asked Mr Ma about his message for the nearly two million members of what he he affectionately calls Gen Z. The biggest generation of young people in the planet's history this year's National Day of peace is focused focused on what we can do to successfully tackle climate change and I just came from a youth group talking with Young People Gen Z. and they are so ready to act and one of the things that I love about Jesse's I think they're they're very passionate and they're absolutely committed to thinking about the health of the planet and and their questions had a lot to do with how to deal with let's say corporate entities and how to work better together to bring all the different groups together because you don't want to work at cross purposes and so I think one of the issues that we talked about this is really to keep communicating take to never stop talking not just with one another but with others to actually constantly learn and in what way AK- music and the culture promote peace. I think music is a convener of people and I think what music communicates is both through the heart and the mind but possibly more through the heart in that addresses a lot of things that happened in the subconscious like memory like things that mean something but that are not immediately present in your mind so so it actually creates an imagination from which you can go back to your normal self but with a different perspective. I think culture is is something that we've invented throughout human history everything we've discovered and invented that that actually helped us to survive and to thrive starting with fire to agriculture obviously arts and sciences but even countries are invented. Supposedly all of that is to serve humanity. I think we sometimes forget that last little bit that you know Oh. I'm a scientist. This is what I do. Actually yes you do that because you're here to serve and for culture people culture secular discover more knowledge for what purpose so that we can better survive and looking at some of the conflicts going on around the world causing enormous sufferings. What is your vision about the ending of all those conflicts will. I think I look at all the stakeholders in determining our evolution or the direction that humanity is going to take over the next. Let's let's say you know seventy eight years at I think of my grandson who's two and a half who's going to be eighty two years old when the twenty second century arrives and I'm thinking well if he survives that long or if the world survives at long it seems the stakeholders in this human experiment is us. It's that simple I mean. It's not a government. It's not even the United Nations but it's governments and United Nations and corporations and schools and teachers and parents and and in fact it takes all of us to be mutually responsible to create a home on our planet that sustainable so hence we have the twenty thirty. SDG's St Jeez the sustainable development goals that says okay the to the best of our knowledge. This is what we need to do and that's not a instruction auction sheet for people to follow but it's more like to say okay. I happen to really care about this part of it and I'm going into my piece. You you know so it's finding something deepened yourself to actually serve which gives you joy and purpose in living living right and if seven point three billion people do that. We actually have a pretty good chance in fixing things but if one billion people do do it that's not enough so I don't blame the corporations I think we all have to do it and that's the only way that we can solve all of it and that means we have to find probably at least seven billion ways of doing it because individuals think and solve problems differently and occasionally they come together and do something together because they feel that's the right thing to do and I think we need to have that kind of network in order to make that
Marketplace with Kai Ryssdal
iPhone sales fall in China, but fans abound
"That funny. Caterpillar is today's global economy. Four letter word heavy equipment maker posted disappointing profits this morning. I guess is why anybody China, of course in the slowdown there. But Caterpillar is not the only company that has been hit by the softening in China, apple cut. It's quarterly revenue spectators last month because of poor iphone sales there. So we send our China correspond, Jennifer pack to talk to some apple customer. She sent this report from Shanghai when the iphone first came out. It wasn't officially available in China. So the only place to get an iphone with electric market like this one. Some of the vendors here got a hold of phones from the US and Hong Kong and sold them on into close in two thousand seven the price of the first iphone was about six hundred dollars which was higher than the average monthly salary back. Then apple reseller, Mr. Ma he doesn't want to disclose his full name because he's been selling phones on the gray market since the devices I launch he says apple prices have only gotten higher since with the hyped match. Team will make you the Bondo Jillian local news reports. Say in twenty eleven a teenager wanted an iphone ipad, so bad. He sold his kidney to pay for them. China says that by twenty fifteen one out of every six people with the cell phone in the country was using an iphone tech, commentator and social media influence once you was one of them. The. I still have about twenty apple products. I use five of those on a daily basis, but after he dropped eighteen hundred dollars on the latest iphone ten s max, he says, it might be the last iphone he buys what you're the poverty and be meal. Total would the experience on the iphone didn't exceed my expectations and the prices much higher than Chinese brands like, wow as made twenty model, which has better features for Chinese users. He's also frustrated with Apple's customer care service. Apple CEO. Tim cook has said the firm respects, China, but Wonka says he hasn't felt it to general social Fava about many iphones. We're not launched in China. I they were sold in the US or Hong Kong. Now, the phones are released at the same time in China. But what about localizing some features? They don't have many apple seems to respect our money. But does it respect our culture our use habits? No, apple isn't the only firm. Having a hard time in China fewer. People are buying cell phones. Overall in part because users have invested in good smartphones. And don't feel the need to upgrade as often add in more Chinese competitors. And over the last two years apple sales have fallen to fifth place behind the likes of away and show me. But if you walk on the streets of Shanghai or Beijing iphone seem to be everywhere apple is still setting the trend in China says writer, Stephen Schwenk, erred who covered the arrival of the iphone in the Chinese market and identifies as a lifelong apple lover up almost be doing something, right because all the competitor seem to be producing almost the same product. But with a different name at a different price point. Back at the electrons market. Apple reseller jomie says she's been selling more secondhand. I phones up to five day likely because the newer models are too pricey. Driver, Mr. wall. He doesn't want to use his full name for fear of government retaliation. He sees his iphone as the status symbol. You into buying the knife phone is like buying a car, you have China-made cars and imported once people only care about the brand Huguet and for him. The iphone is the Mercedes Benz of cellphones in Shanghai. I'm Jennifer Pap for marketplace.
