Simple overcapacity in an economic downturn. The Chinese people are so entrepreneurial. Too bad the CCP will squash the people's hopes of prosperity to remain in power every time.
It's not their fault tbh. Anybody who lived through the gold mine 80s-90s china economy was would be like that. Most of these people's parents got their first pot of gold without even doing much.
From this video. I learnt an awful lot. The chinese market itself, is way way WAY too volatile !... Cos any mere small issues can be blown into a big one. And in truth, by the time that they grew, what that guy should've done is to sell it, into the market.. and let the market take it apart... and then restructures etc etc etc. Cos this lockdown like this.. is affected by the wheat prices outside of the country as well... So even if they sell on now.. they could ? So... just move the people into other companies ! It is that simple. So.... and you still work inside the sectors anyway, right? so... This kind of "competition" is crazy. Just jump ship. It's so telling how employees see themselves.. actually... so... Very very weird. Whereas here in the UK, everybody would just jump ship. Unless they pay a decent wage. Whereas from this, stores would never bat down and would compete til you squeeze the last bit of money instead.. lol... This is so... I dunno what it is doing. lol...
Overcapacity and undercapacity due to chronic capital misallocation does not resolve until capital misallocation resolves, which it cannot. Philosophically they are mercantilists on steroids with chronic easy money for favored market sectors and a 50 percent savings rate with every Tom dick and Harry opening a small business in saturated markets. Old habits die hard. A Minsky Moment is inevitable someday, or a stealth Minsky with chronic severe inflation if they are lucky
Living in China I have seen some characteristics which helps to destroy some of these companies. Too many companies do very similar products, no-one seems to complete a detailed well thought out business plan, when a certain type of product like bakeries gets popular the market gets flooded with companies in this sector. I sometimes think a business plan in China is simply "oh look there is a new shop with customers, they must be making money, if we open a store like this across the street we will make money too". I have spoken to university graduates who want to open a business they seem to have no concept of business plans, budget and cashflow forecasts or anything else I would expect to see in a start-up. As an accountant who has run my own accountancy practice for the last thirty years including helping clients to put business plans together I find this a very peculiar way to operate a business.
they are not raised to be critical thinkers, just obedient and hardworking they will work themselves to death but they cannot come up with creative solutions in most scenarios (unless its a scam or a tofu-dreg product)
My Japanese boss, back in the late 90s, was astonished that a American white girl could make pizza filling style bao. I felt kind of bad because it was winter and I didn't want to go in the cold. I made us lunch daily. I had flour and tinned tomato and cheese. We had them with egg fried fried rice and miso soup. She loved them so much lol I made pizza bao in the late 90s before it was popular! Yum!
I don't understand why all these Chinese people keep working for months without getting paid, and end up owed months of wages, which is never settled! How do they live? This wouldn't happen to me. Payday rolls around and I don't get my money, I won't do any further work. No way I'm working for promises.
Chinese entrepreneur culture is not "creating new and/or unique", or filling an obvious hole in service or product. They don't have an eye for that. It's a "me too" + unbridled greed, mentality, environment. "Market research" is an incomprehensible concept/process. They see Chi - who is an extremely RARE original thinker - opened a unique bakery and it is wildly successful. So they say: "me too", and will open a bakery, COPY the products, so "I can make lotsa money also, like Chi". (ENVY is a HUGE Chinese cultural factor also, by the way). Then comes and opens another "me too", then another. Soon there are half a dozen of the same establishments, same products in the same area. Since the clientele is a given number, who has the money and taste for such things, that number will be split into smaller and smaller number segments as more of the same places open with identical products. In the end, they ALL go bankrupt.
Ah chinese titles for people and organisations. They LOVE to use MANY words. Where other countries use 3 or maybe 4 words. China needs to the title to be pompous and big. How else can you make the person working for it, mere a cog in a machine, feel well about it?
Why do these ppl keep working for months without pay? I’d work half a month cause where I live they can pay either twice a month or every 2 weeks, might be different if your a sub contractor or something but still! And it always seems like the Chinese business model is saturate the market, instead of just slowly building the business as needed!
Remember in the story of Pandora's box, the box contained all the evils in the world, and one of those was Hope. Continuing to work without getting paid hoping you will get paid later shows the evil of hope.
Bread these days in both countries are also filled with chemicals such as preservatives, emulsifiers, enzymes, and dough conditioners to improve texture.
What possessed so many Chinese business people to either launch or go through massive expansions during the 2020-2023 period? The global economy was in turmoil, yet someone was willing to lend out money for retail shops?
From $37K to $65K that's the minimum range of profit return every month I think it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.
Venturing into crypto as a newbie was very difficult due to lack of experience which resulted in loosing funds......... But Caroline Anthony, restored hope shes a good woman
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Caroline Anthony) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
Western style bakery r still doing good in 1st and 2nd tier China cities, on condition it has to look and taste good. Shop designs have to be modern. Price is immaterial.
no bread the pockets... then literally no bread. at least owner didn't go way of prepackaged food 8n China and make prepackaged bakery... imagine the carcinogens.
from my perspective or veiw on why china has this problem is when a buissness is doing well and making alot of profit other people steal the idea and ride the wagon of profit and the origianl store goes out of buissness because of competition in america we like to patent and then build off the buissness for as long as possible and every person cant steal the idea but they can be a stake holder by working for the company and earning a stake in its earnings from the profit if it benifits the company
Marxism seems to leave a mess wherever it goes. Why do folks just look away when they see injustice? A lot of people prefer the easy route and shy away from standing up against the oppression they face. When money becomes your main focus, you tend to stay silent. But now that the cash flow has dried up, what do you have left?
Heartbreaking to see this. I lived in China and the bakeries were everywhere. Almost all of them were little mom and pop operations. The people worked very hard and were very proud of their businesses. I hope that this industry can bounce back. These bakeries are a real gem.
@@gavinlew8273 Yeah...I'd like to say the housing thing was just a Chinese phenomenon, but it wasn't. However, the CCP did play a big role in creating the problem. I haven't been to China in 10 years. When I lived there, all of the prices seemed cheap. I could buy a whole roasted duck for 10 RMB. (About $3.16 USD back then.) I'm guessing its at least 50% more now. And, in a society where $26,000 USD puts you into the middle class, $3 for a loaf of bread is a lot! Even here in the U.S., you can buy a loaf of bread for less than $2 and we earn a whole lot more. I really hope they can turn things around.

They were raised to be ultra competitive.
@@LivingWithGoutYes, you're right! Just watch on how they compete on having a luxurious lifestyle.
They are not pioneer but just imitate what other people do
You can't even find China on the world map.
they are not raised to be critical thinkers, just obedient and hardworking
they will work themselves to death but they cannot come up with creative solutions in most scenarios (unless its a scam or a tofu-dreg product)
theres basically zero barkerys left in australia rent is a killer an all done by mass production factorys now.
Are you kidding? 0 bakeries??@! But I heard people are queuing at Lune's.
You are a clown. He means insignificant @@gavinlew8273
Im in Australia atm and get bread from the local bakery store ran by Koreans, nice try leek 😂😂😂

It was probably 10 below, so cold. And I was scraping my fridge and cupboards.
She was surviving off of instant noodles and was elderly. She needed real food. It broke my heart seeing her eat eat instant noodles for breakfast.
I ate oats cooked with raisins and cinnamon and milk tea. Dinner was rice and tofu or egg and vegetables toppings.
I'm back to eating a similar diet.
I need a solid lunch.
Dangerous Chinese Food You Should Eat at Risk of Your Life

Payday rolls around and I don't get my money, I won't do any further work. No way I'm working for promises.
I think its because they see how hard it is to find another job. Plus theres a slim chance of getting paid later.
They took loan after loan after loan
@@paulgap7012 What happens when you can’t take out any more loans?
They love their country and it's a culture thing, people have savings but in America people even hate their parents. Incohesive and me society
@@vmbay2212fake propaganda
And your leader want to go to war ?
That's America. Get lost
Sewer rat, America has destroyed this world in the last 90 years
Winnie shut down the bakery
Prolly ran out of honey.
@@TheDaysOfGlory😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They have millions of other bakeries.

Wulitang had terrible tasting products. They were full of sugar and had no flavour.
😮
Right, most bakeries there don't use real butter or creme, just oil in their pastries or use subpar ingredients overall.
“Deputy Secretary of State General of the China National Bakery Association” grandiose much?
Ah chinese titles for people and organisations.
They LOVE to use MANY words.

They don't have an unemployment program. Most will stay at a job and take out loans to cover expenses hoping the back wages will be paid.
They are cohesive society and Americans even hate their parents
Here in America bread is $10.00 , because of government food stamps . It's a way of punishing the citizens financially.
Sorry bread , at most $ 3.80 ❤
Remember in the story of Pandora's box, the box contained all the evils in the world, and one of those was Hope. Continuing to work without getting paid hoping you will get paid later shows the evil of hope.
Hope is good.
It's one of the three theological virtues.
Faith , Hope , & Charity.
❤❤❤
well perhaps the prices are high with taxes and people have no money
Back to rice farming 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
It is the same in the US, the difference is that we don't IPO everything.
It's even worse
Probably healthier to avoid baked goods that are basically all carbs and often stuffed with sugar.
Right. Chinese try to eat healthy. America has either sugary or salty food. That's it
Bread these days in both countries are also filled with chemicals such as preservatives, emulsifiers, enzymes, and dough conditioners to improve texture.
and seed oil cause inflammation too plus that place have a rather bad record of using low quality oil
go back to basic food
Worry about your next meal
Very in-depth analysis of this sector. Good job
Not shocked anymore now ,,
1000s businesses close every month in America
What possessed so many Chinese business people to either launch or go through massive expansions during the 2020-2023 period?
The global economy was in turmoil, yet someone was willing to lend out money for retail shops?
Wow... I have never heard of Christines' before... 1000 stores ??.... Oh wow..... Since 1993 as well ?.... So surprising.
Emperor Xi and China forgot that the US, Europe, Japan, and Taiwan buttered their bread!
Ok fatburger and they are all China haters
People can't even afford to eat?
Lies and more lies. That's north America. 1 in 5 hungry
Isn't communism wonderful

Yeah, since meeting expert Jessica, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit high, with less risk.

9:10, the pronunciation on "tous les jours" is just golden
This will eventually go in a chain reaction because if bakeries and small businesses close, supermarkets will go next
Maybe the bakeries would do better if they put them in the groceries like we do here.
jeez, at this rate the rice paddies will go out of business next
Spending money you don’t have is nuts and The CCP Govt. expecting you to spend money, you don’t have is insane.
11:04 - "tiger attitude chartered pastry bank" sounds like a completely fictional thing. translation error?
Come to Indonesia, cake and passtery shop is highly sought after, especially daifuku mochi sold at $0.3 while in mall they sold it $1
Western style bakery r still doing good in 1st and 2nd tier China cities, on condition it has to look and taste good. Shop designs have to be modern. Price is immaterial.
no bread the pockets... then literally no bread. at least owner didn't go way of prepackaged food 8n China and make prepackaged bakery... imagine the carcinogens.
from my perspective or veiw on why china has this problem is
when a buissness is doing well and making alot of profit
other people steal the idea and ride the wagon of profit and the origianl store goes out of buissness because of competition
in america we like to patent and then build off the buissness for as long as possible and every person cant steal the idea but they can be a stake holder by working for the company and earning a stake in its earnings from the profit if it benifits the company
Tous le jours and Paris baguette are still in china…. Please understand how to say it
But remember GDP 5%++++
Yup
If even bread and other food supplies means bad business!
What should bakery do to survive in this economy?
Sell in bulk at low price, quantity over small profit each sale
Sell Ice Cream :D

Too bad for them. I pop off $5 easy for BreadTalk, Acacia bread, Red Ribbon, Goldilocks… It’s more fun in the Philippines!

When talking about yuan, can you provide another cirrency for comparrisson? $ euro or yen?

Oh well, it's not bread anyway lol.
Ccp seems to be extremely stupid but think they are extremely clever .
Launder money through bakeries 🙂
Fake ingredients!!!!!!!
There are no bakeries in China lol😂 everything is cheap factory made full of sugar.
They should sell coffee ☕️ 😋
Cheap debts
Fake?
