要追溯这篇文章的影响力，首先得从一个名叫托马斯·弗里德曼的美国记者说起。这位作者是《世界是平的》一书的畅销作者，曾三度获得普利策奖，在美 国舆论界有着不小的分量。2024年年底，弗里德曼到访中国，足迹踏遍了北京与上海。在游览过这两个城市之后，他在主流媒体上发表了一篇震动舆论的文 章，开篇便写道：我刚刚看到了未来，但它不在美国。他提到，上海迪士尼与华为的练秋湖研发中心在他的眼前形成了鲜明的对比，最终他选择了后者。那 个高科技园区内有104栋单独设计的建筑，单轨列车穿梭其中，3.5万名科学家和工程师埋头研发。弗里德曼深感震撼，感叹道：曾经人们到美国看未来，现 在他们选择来这里。如果这话出现在十年前，恐怕没人会信，但今天，这种感受竟然引人深思。 2025年，特朗普将关税作为了他的万能钥匙，希望通过这种方式撬动全球经济的大门。2025年2月1日，他签署了行政命令，决定对所有从中国进口的商品加 征10%的关税；而到了4月2日，他又宣布实施对等关税，对中国商品的总关税一度猛增至145%。随着时间推移，这一数字又不断攀升，最终有些特定商品 的关税甚至超过了125%。但是，这一做法真的有效吗？有一位中国商人便在美国媒体上发文 ...
