Otherwise, everybody's saying that, okay, we're setting the boundaries and please be safe.

are a lot of agencies which might get involved.

And the foremost would be the state administration for market regulation.

They are the ones which have coordinated, I mean, cross-agency collaboration in the past few years against...

Oh, yeah.

So I think for the last few years, any regulatory effort against large platforms will be handled by a joint effort by different regulators.

Because some of the platforms are so large that whatever they do, they touch different sort of segments of society and different industries.

One of the main agencies which have been coordinating these efforts has been the State Administration for Market Regulation.

But so far, they have not been sending any sort of clear signal of what exactly is allowed, what is not allowed.

But they have been making the stance saying that we're anti-involution.

I personally think that if I'm a bureaucrat in a regulator, I don't want to be responsible for anything that might go sideways, right?

I don't want to be seen as killing innovation.

I don't want to be seen as, I mean, if everybody's happy getting five cups of free bubble tea a day, I don't want to be seen as the one stopping that.

But on the other hand, they need to be seen as doing their job.

So that's why you see a lot of statements and stuff, but not much actual sort of enforcement.

I would think so.

And of course, by the time we're recording this, it's a few days before the military parade in Beijing to celebrate the end of the Second World War.

And this is a time that no regulator dares to do anything drastic because anything that becomes public news that's negative before a staged government event in China,

I mean, whoever who instigated that would be in lots of trouble.

So I would imagine that things will stay cool until this whole military parade is over.
