This is a tough question. The real big issue is whether this is just another show or is the central government effective and really dedicated to eradicating extravagance and arrogance in the tens of millions of government officials throughout the totalitarian country. It is these people who have been constructing the intricate web that supports the Communists’ dictatorship and their own personal gains afterall.
I think extravagant products will slow down a bit and many other ways of money gabbling and self-importance will soon come up.
As for the price of tea, my personal wish is that the crazy top prices will come down and cool the producers of wasting their crops in making teas of names and grades that are going to be wasted. I want to see normalization. The price structure is complicated enough with the rising costs in labour, fuel and rent. It really doesn’t need the dirty hands of manipulators and self-important big-spenders.
