Brief

Brian Chau (@brianchau57) argues, via a short post quoting Yishan, that China will deliver breakthrough technologies — even to the extent of curing cancer — over the next ten years. He frames a predictive rule: when technology makes something possible but it’s difficult to accomplish in the U.S., China’s venture ecosystem will push to realize it despite a "different flavor of terrid."

Why it matters

Author Brian Chau (@brianchau57) tweeted on 2026-03-16 claiming that China is going to "cure cancer" and predicting major technological advances from China over the next 10 years.

Key details

  • He cites Yishan's formula: breakthroughs will come where "technology now makes it possible to do X, but it’s really hard to do X in the United States," attributing execution to China’s venture markets being "a different flavor of terrid."

Secret third thing because venture markets in China are a different flavor of terrid

Yishan (@yishan)

What we’re basically going to see happen is that China is going to cure cancer.

If you want a map to all the technological advances you’re going to see in the next 10 years out of China, the formula is “technology now makes it possible to do X, but it’s really hard to do X in the United States.”
