Hello, this is China Deep Dive. We have all the information you need to know about China at present. Today's topic is:

Over November 17 and 18, two transnational submarine cables in the Baltic Sea were severed within less than 24 hours. One of the cables connects Finland and Germany, while the other connects Sweden and Lithuania. There has been speculation that these submarine cables were intentionally cut. After the incident, the Chinese-owned cargo ship "Yipeng 3" that was sailing in nearby waters was quickly identified as a target for investigation. Additionally, China's patents for technologies related to cutting submarine cables have attracted attention.
On November 30, submarine optical cables enable fast data transmission between countries and have significant economic and strategic value. Many countries are continuously developing and applying submarine cable technology. However, among China's similar invention patents, two patents stand out. These two technologies focus on how to secretly and quickly damage submarine optical cables.
