Chinese authorities have refrained from making official comments on the election, calling it the U.S. internal affairs.
However, there have been various reactions in the private sector that predict Trump's election in advance.

First of all, please convey the official position of the Chinese authorities.

At a briefing by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs this afternoon, questions were raised about the possibility of Trump's election.
The answer is that this election is the internal affairs of the United States, and we can't answer hypothetical questions.
Regarding the impact on China's foreign policy in the future, he gave a theoretical answer that he would pursue peaceful coexistence consistently.
The official position of the authorities is that no matter who becomes it, the U.S. strategy to check and pressure China will not change.
However, the results were so keen that the meeting to determine the size of the "Chinese version of the supplementary budget" was postponed until after the U.S. presidential election.
As Trump, who is less predictable, is likely to win the election, it is expected that a little more active financial investment will take place.

There was a very shrewd response from the private sector?

Shares of software companies listed on China's Shenzhen Exchange jumped to a cap of 10%.
It is a so-called "Trump meme stock" in Chinese, which means "Trump's 智?"
On the other hand, thermos companies similar to Harris's range plunged 7.14%.
On Chinese social media, the hashtag "U.S. presidential election" garnered 16 billion views and more than 4 million comments.
Online voting was also conducted with more than 30,000 people, with 74% "betting" former President Trump's victory.
However, certain candidate support posts are deleted due to censorship and cannot be found now.
