From the Ted Talk by Keyu Jin: What the world can learn from China's innovation playbook

Unscramble the Blue Letters


Now, China's "juguo" system is an entire nitaon behind one strategic goal. Mobilizing national resources, casting the net wide, not tallying costs. And it’s the same system that’s used to reap as many Olympic gold medals as possible. And so thanks to this eysostecm, cnhia became the largest consumer and producers of EVs in less than a decade. With more cars sold there than in the rest of the world combined in 2020.

Now in the West, we often talk about "nudging" consumers to make better ccoihes. But in China, mass adoption of next-gen ttnptsroraaoin happened like that. Well, in part thanks to the state rolling out four million charging stations around the cntoruy, cidonornitag slppuy chains from battery makers to control systems and manufacturers. Today, there are 140,000 chargers in the US in the enirte country.

Original Text


Now, China's "juguo" system is an entire nation behind one strategic goal. Mobilizing national resources, casting the net wide, not tallying costs. And it’s the same system that’s used to reap as many Olympic gold medals as possible. And so thanks to this ecosystem, China became the largest consumer and producers of EVs in less than a decade. With more cars sold there than in the rest of the world combined in 2020.

Now in the West, we often talk about "nudging" consumers to make better choices. But in China, mass adoption of next-gen transportation happened like that. Well, in part thanks to the state rolling out four million charging stations around the country, coordinating supply chains from battery makers to control systems and manufacturers. Today, there are 140,000 chargers in the US in the entire country.
