years. the latest sign that the country's economy may be in trouble. activity slowed shop in april or several cities, including shanghai came under lockdown as part of the government 0 corporate

this. she is chief economist for hang thing, bang china and is joining as life from shanghai. thank you so much for being with us. we've already seen a sump in consumer spending arise in unemployment, and now the manufacturing sector is down just how concerning is all this for the chinese economy? will it get worse? you think? i am very worried on where this is going because the correlation high has been looking like it's going to an end after this may a holiday, which means most people can probably walk around their neighborhood. um, but for most of factories along the east coast, they are not in a very good condition. and because taking on what's going on in shanghai, a lot more cities are taking precautionary measures. even with the one colored cases, the whole, the whole city can be locked down. so in my be looking at a situation where 30 cities might be in lockdown simultaneously, that's hugely disruptive to the supply chain. right? this inflexible approach to the pandemic? is it sustainable? can the chinese government make economic stability a priority while also pursuing this 0 corporate strategy? this is a impossible task to do both on the dynamic 0 strategy is not sitting in a role. and we can see many examples ation. hi i and for a lot of the. busy companies in digital industry, in manufacturing, they're under a lot of pressure to lay off more workers. but right now, china doesn't seem to have a new solution to this problem. since the 20th parties, congress will happen october. and before then, everyone would be very conscious about containing the cove. it, it is absolutely the political priority rather than economic powers say, what about the impact beyond china? shanghai is china, is made manufacturing and explored have been, it's what has been at a standstill. what will this mean for countries that rely on chinese production? an on demand from chinese investment. huh. shanghai, a little accounts for about 20 percent of china's contin or

pretty soon and notch us in consumer goods, but also in very important intermediate industrial inputs. and that's going to be very damaging to the inflation prospective in the u. s. and to the industrial recovery in asi and countries. and i dont you know, those who say that beijing has been in city difficult positions before from, from the global financial crisis to the trade with the u. s. and that they can, whether this storm do you believe that? how confident are you about the chinese economic economies? long term resilience in vitality. well, china's economy still seeing fundamentally sound what's different this time is a loss of confidence, even after 2008 financial crisis and earlier, 1998 asian prices. china was in, in a similar situation where the global you busters annoying, caught losing confidence in the long term gross prospect. by this time, the very different thing is, people who start to doubt where the policies are going. although the policy uncertainty is part of the doing business in china, by this time, this kind of unclear prospect of whether the government is taking over a bigger control of economy. where the private sector or foreign investors can expect in the future on these things are becoming the new problems. as far as i know, companies are changing their risk evaluation motto about china. previously, they didn't give
