"Low-altitude Crossing" at the Mexican Border
공유하다
Recently, the imposition of tariffs by the United States on China has triggered a series of chain reactions. Among them, the most remarkable is the soaring prices of DJI drones in the US market. However, amid this price turmoil, a peculiar phenomenon emerged in the electronic market of Manhattan, New York: A large number of "unopened Hong Kong version" DJI drones were sold at prices 21% lower than the official price. The source of these drones was through "low-altitude crossing" at the Mexican border and smuggled into the United States. It is reported that the "heroes" behind these smuggling activities were a group of highly skilled Mexicans. They used modified DJIMatrice4 drones to ingeniously transport 30 Mini3Pro drones into the United States. These modified drones flew at a height of 50 meters above the ground, successfully avoiding radar monitoring and quietly delivering boxes of DJI drones to the US market. This action by the Mexicans cannot help but remind us of the caravan traders on the ancient Silk Road, who crossed deserts and climbed mountains to transport goods to distant countries. Nowadays, Mexicans have performed this smuggling activity to the fullest extent with modern means. They have opened up an aerial "Silk Road" with modified drones, delivering DJI drones to the hands of American consumers. This "low-altitude crossing" smuggling spectacle not only showcases the intelligence of Mexicans but also exposes the loopholes in US border supervision. With the help of high-tech means, border smuggling activities have become increasingly covert, posing unprecedented challenges to customs supervision. At the same time, this has also intensified the price war of DJI drones in the US market. In response to this phenomenon, we can't help but ask: In the context of globalization, how can we effectively curb border smuggling activities and protect national interests? At the same time, how can we reasonably adjust tariff policies to avoid harming innocent enterprises? These questions deserve our deep reflection. In conclusion, the incident of Mexicans smuggling DJI drones using modified DJI drones at the Mexican border is like a mirror, reflecting various predicaments in international trade. In the days to come, how to solve these problems will be a test of the wisdom of governments of all countries.
