1.06 births per woman is going to lead to a population collapse, and I don’t think China is attractive enough to immigrants to make up for the gap.

The developed world would be having similar challenges, broadly, but have higher birth rates, generally, and much higher immigration.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, but I think fears of a Chinese-led hegemony replacing the current US-centred regime is becoming increasingly unlikely.

Edit: I was curious, so I looked it up, and it’s even worse than I thought:

The net migration rate for China in 2021 was -0.252 per 1000 population

So in 2267 their population will start to decrease?

I wonder how wide a release it will get. From the sound of the article, it’s up to the Library of Congress what happens next.

Interesting article and I hope they digitize it at some point so everyone gets a chance to see it.

Also interesting from the article is a film from 2015 called “100 Years” starring John Malkovich that doesnt release until 2115

Don’t worry if they don’t manage to obtain what they want by asking, I’m sure the Chinese government will find a way to force them.

Apparently other directors also follow similar ideologies. Not sure why chairs should be banned at all. Phones? I get that, understandable. But chairs? Come on…
