Why Did Elon Musk Land In China Days After Postponing India Visit? 5 Key Reasons Explained In 3 Mins

Just over a week after postponing his India trip citing very heavy Tesla obligations, Elon Musk landed up in China, practically unannounced. In Beijing, he met China's number 2 official, Li Qiang. China is Tesla's second largest market, and hence extremely important for Musk. But this particular visit at this particular time was extremely crucial for the EV maker, here's 5 big reasons why!

    If you look at Musk's career, he has been at the center of technological innovation. His experience in NEV around the globe tells him that the center of innovation in the world today is in China. He has built his second NEV factory in China and appears to be reducing its workforce in Nevada. He realizes that no other country can beat China currently in productivity and innovation, not even the US. While India looks enticing for the future, his current priority is to stay strong and embedded in Chinese technology rise and gain from the innovation that China creates. BYD's success to rise and surpass Tesla in NEV is a lesson learned about China's abilities and capabilities. He has learned that BYD is strongly vertically and horizontally integrated from batteries to parts, BYD makes most of its needs whether in materials, electronics, batteries, or software. BYD is said to have a 25% production advantage over legacy auto makers who outsource an average of 60% of their parts and focus primarily on assembly. There is a lesson to be learned from Musk's experience and actions that US politicians must heed. Shouting that the US will create its own supply chain and raise manufacturing in the US by throwing money at it, won't cut the mustard. In fact a complete waste of time without the human resources to back that initiative. Further Musk's real time data of manufacturing in the US vs China must tell the pragmatic truth that the US cannot compete directly with China and it should work to integrate itself into the Chinese paradigm to take part in winning the future. That process had worked well in the semiconductor sector where the US was strong in design and software and subcontracted out manufacturing until the US government muddled things up and now is causing sales, profits, and R&D investment declines that are debilitating America's strength in the semiconductor sector.

    His technology especially pertaining to tesla cars and space has always been open source. China has the stable basic technological threshold and skillsets to fast track open source technology. They are less profit margin enthusiasts who pick up technology for adaptive innovation. India is still building it's baseline technological foundation and probably, Elon wants to do much more, faster and also beneficial to US - China interest.
