Trump-Tsai call Complicates U.S-China Dynamics

2016 - 12 - 05

It happened two days ago but we haven’t written any comments because most of the mass media, U.S media included, haven’t figured out why Trump took the call, breaking all precedents, and tweeted about it.

事情發生了兩天,我們都未評論;是因為包括美國在內的各大主流媒體,都還沒想明白川普不僅破例接了蔡總統的電話、更主動發了兩則推特的盤算,究竟是什麼。大家放上頭條忙著分析了半天,有講跟沒講一樣。以下為我們的看法:

1. 在生意場上,一個局如果僵在那兒、而你又非打破它不可,那就必須投下變數。只要對自己不會立即產生致命性的負面效應,然後又能讓自己的對手坐立難安,這個變數常常都是可接受的。

2. 許多美國公司因為中國量大且價廉之勞工而獲取鉅利、許多美國中產階級的工作也因而直接間接消失。內政以外,從東北亞到東南亞的近期大勢看來也對美國不利。打破這些局,是川普勝選的題材之一。

3. 川普本人及其幕僚絕對還沒有能力算清楚,究竟他阻止在印第安納州開立冷氣廠並遷去墨西哥、打電話給庫克請他把iPhone從河南鄭州搬回美國製造、以及破例和蔡英文聊了12分鐘是會對上述局勢帶來何種影響。但是,不投入夠大的變數,他們也永遠不會知道,僵局也永遠是僵局。他們只知道這步棋下了、現狀改變了,就有機會能夠談出利基(難道中國會為了幾則推特朝美國丟核彈嗎)。

4. 靈活的生意人,非不得已不啟戰端;打仗要花的錢,比談判多太多了,下場還多半很慘。現在為此事批評川普的人,在布希政府時期有沒有為耗資美金破兆最後還讓美國灰頭土臉的出兵伊拉克按讚?川普在上台前,就丟出上頭那些動作,不僅有打破僵局之可能,更重要的,是有因此燒到美國納稅人的口袋嗎?

6. 水至清則無魚,這種談判的佈局得先把水給攪渾。華盛頓郵報一直都是自由派,反川向來反得凶,一年多以來一直批評他沒有外交能力,想捧希拉蕊上台。剛剛終於在頭版刊了這篇,總算不是笨到底。

7. 台灣人,不必高興太早。大人在講話在喬事你要能插得上嘴,底氣得夠壯才行。大家,之前讀過多少美中的東西、走過美中多少地方、又和那些地方的多少人打過交道?

8. 平常不看棒球的,聽見陳偉殷一場投出12個三振就趕忙寫篇文章盛讚他是台灣之光,那是一日球迷,沒什麼不好。不過,大家現在聚焦的這道川菜,連前菜都還稱不上,只不過是進餐廳時原本就擺在桌上的一碟花生米。這樣就讓平常那些連國際新聞都不看的人HIGH到不行,那我就真不知道該怎麼形容他們了。
