Project Veritas obtained many documents outlining business strategies for the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) state-owned enterprises, concerning their 14th Five-Year Plan.

Over 400 files, totaling almost 8 GB of CCP data, were accessible and downloadable to the public without any password requirement. A source informed the organization about an unprotested web server belonging to one of China’s state-sponsored enterprises. 

The director of the FBI, Christopher A. Wray, stated that China represents the most significant long-term threat to the economic and national security of the United States and the Western world.

Later, Wray went on the record to caution that Beijing actively attempts to influence the world through interference in politics, business, and other areas. The United States is not exempt from these targeted attacks by any means.

China uses its state-owned enterprises to advance much of its economic output, often through economic sabotage of foreign companies and acquiring their schematics for particular materials.

During the Trump administration, Chinese-affiliated organizations were legally obligated to disclose their ties to the CCP under the China Initiative. Upon entering office in 2021, President Biden revoked Trump’s program, claiming it was inherently biased against Asians. 

China’s vast infiltration efforts range from planting ideological advocacy centers at universities, such as the Confucius Institute, to recruiting spies to acquire foreign technologies.

These technologies include none other than artificial intelligence, nuclear, biotech, and military-related developments.

The CCP dispatched numerous individuals engaged in the research and development of these projects to collaborate with public universities and private companies.

This happened in several nations across the world, encompassing the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel, Canada, Australia, Japan, France, and Germany.

Names that appear include Apple software developer Weibao Wang, who stole technology for self-driving cars, and Zhengdong Cheng. This aerospace engineer maintained channels of communication with China while also working at NASA.
