China’s new shipbuilding orders accounted for more than half of the global share in the first half of the year due to growing demand for container ships amid COVID-19, CCTV reported.

According to data released by China Association of the National Shipbuilding, China’s completed orders grew by 19 percent year-on-year in the first half, with rise in high-end ship orders.

China’s new ship orders accounted for 51 percent of the global share with the average monthly orders reaching 6.37 million dwt, 1.8 times that of shipbuilding completed in the same period.

Chen Jun, General Manager of Hudong Zhonghua Shipbuilding Co said they have entered peak season over June and July and delivered several large LNG ships and large container ships which are low-carbon and environmentally friendly.

“The green, environmental protection, low carbon design concept has not only made Chinese ships meet the most stringent emission requirements, but also gives Chinese ships strong market adaptability and market prospects,” he said.

At present, Guangzhou Shipyard International Company has eight container ship orders in hand, with the number of orders hitting a new high in the past decade, in particular new energy ships and large container ships which are urgently needed by the market, said Zhou Xuhui, deputy general manager of the company.

Lin Feng, deputy General Manager of China Shipbuilding Trading Co, said that due to the growing global demand for container ships, the company had received 53 orders for super large container ships with more than 15,000 containers, accounting for 57 percent of global orders.

You need money for those, a healthy economy is much more important than a few warships.

A strong military is needed to deter criminals. Having money without strong security is asking for disaster.

China should have leanrned this lesson from the Song and Qing dynasties in history where both of them had the world largest GDP but with weak and corrupted military and gov. The results, both Song and Qing were humiliatingly defeated by the barbaric Mongols and British.

China should have leanrned this lesson from the Song and Qing dynasties in history where both of them had the world largest GDP but with weak and corrupted military and gov. The results, both Song and Qing were humiliatingly defeated by the barbaric Mongols and British.

Qing Dynasty is because they fail to modernize in 19th century. In the early-mid period of Qing Dynasty is strong enough.
They winning many expansion campaign (Ten Great Campaigns)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Great_Campaigns



Meanwhile Song Dynasty is much more complicated issue.
They didn't have foothold in Northern China (under Liao state at that time). This meant that the Song lacked a good supply of calvary, both in terms of horses and in people with the skills to use them in battle, and thus on the open plains of Northern China they were continually at a huge military disadvantage, and suffered a number of humiliating military reversals, which cemented their reputation as one of the “weakest” Chinese dynasties. (Though arguably, in relative terms the Qing were weaker near their end, and humiliated to an even larger degree).

But relative weakness does not translate into absolute weakness. I have little doubt that if the armies of the Northern Song had faced off with the armies of the Han or Tang dynasties when all three were at their peaks, the Song would have stomped their predecessors without much difficulty.

The Song was an economic powerhouse the likes of which the world had not yet seen to that point, and indeed not matched for quite some time afterwards. Their economic organization had evolved to a surprising modern degree, and they were on the cusp of an industrial revolution of their own before military reversals against the Jin set them back.

Their wealth was also underpinned by an astonishing agricultural productivity which allowed them to support a huge population. China being known for a large population relative to other world powers of its time basically began with the Song. They also pioneered the use of gunpowder weaponry technology, and they possessed an excellent navy.

The Mongols ultimately had to draw upon the resources of their entire empire, bringing in Trebuchets and other Seige warfare techniques from their Middle East conquests, and building a Navy of their own through the recruitment of expertise in the regions of North China they already controlled, before they could overcome the Southern Song defences, meaning that they essentially had to conquer the rest of their empire first before obtaining the resources they needed to overrun the Song.

Indeed, if it were not for the incompetence of their leadership in the final years, it is quite conceivable that they could have held off the Mongols indefinitely, and not been conquered at all.

And those Mongols need almost half of century to conquer Southern Song Empire (44 Years) While others, like Turkic Kievan rus, Arabs, eastern european slav surrender to Mongols in matter of months even days.












But yes, my favorite is Tang Dynasty Even until this day, many Chinese Hokkien people in Indonesia & South East Asia calls themselves as Teng Lang (People from Tang)
Teng Lang /təŋ laŋ/ is another term originating from Hokkien. It literally means ‘the people (lâng) of the Tang (tnĝ ) dynasty.’

In that time, Chinese Territory successfully reach Aral Sea & Persian Border.
If not because Persian Empire is their Ally, I believe they will expand much further to the west reaching Caspian Sea and Middle East

Yes, indeed the Song was the weakest out of all four major dynasties founded by Han Chinese. Maybe, the Qing was the weakest and most corrupt at its late stage.

I dont think the Song army was any match for the Han and Tang armies. This is becos the Song had the system of civilian officials control of the military, above professiomal military commanders. The Song didnt have much respect and attach much importance for soldiers becos the founder gained the emperor throne by a military coup, so he and his successors didnt trust military and its commanders that much. Second, the armies of Song and later Ming were basically infantry unlike Han and Tang armies which were mostly cavalries that are much more powerful, fast and lethal. This was the situation the Song army like later Ming couldnt get military horse supplies becos the Song and Ming had lost the territory in Gansu which was the horse breeding ground for imperial China since Han dynasty. Third, Chinese since Song dynasty had became much more peaceful and lacked the fighting spirit that characterized Han and Tang chinese becos the peaceful and no desire Buddhism had penetrated chinese society since Song dynasty. So, Song people wouldnt make good fighting soldiers.

The Han and Tang like the Song faced with ferious powerful horseback armies of the grasslands, but they were able to defeat and chase out the mighty Huns and Turks for the above mentioned reasons.

For the Qing, aside from weak and corrupt, it was an agricultural scoiety, there was absolutely no chance that it would have any reasonable chance of winning against the industralized Europe, different dimensions, not just generation gap in military technology.

Many say Han was the most powerful dynasty in chinese history, Tang was the most prosperous and powerful overall counting the full length of the durations of their existence. But, Han dynasty had a bigger impact on chinese people, politics, state and history.
