The SRBD channels are known for dark humors and strong/rude language. (In some videos, character even give a fuck finger.)
She (the adult) is very rude at first. However, there is also a great plot twist. --h0ngcom.
It looks like 15 (or more) years ago rather than 10 years ago because the plot said the main male character (adult) is 23 years old and the child of main male character looks like 6-8 years old, not 13 years old for sure. --h0ngcom.

Video description said "The "BYD Owners Meeting" was held at Fuji Speedway on April 20, 2025. We will show you the parade run that took place at the end."
"This time, with permission from the people involved, we were able to shoot 360-degree footage,
even though drones were not allowed.
Thank you very much."
Video description also said "We're not even driving at our limit... we're driving really slowly, so please take your time and enjoy the view of your surroundings."

https://gran-turismo.fandom.com/wiki/Fuji_Speedway said "Fuji Speedway is a Japanese racing complex based in Oyama within the Shizuoka Prefecture. The circuit, with its several layouts, has been featured in the series since Gran Turismo 4 Prologue."
However, this car brand/manufacturer, like other car brands/manufacturers of the same nationality, has never appeared in the GT series, a Japanese game.
And, of course, the game series has a lot of Japanese cars. The ALL of Asian circuits in GT7 are also in Japan.
Video title said "First time! BYD Owners Meeting at Fuji Speedway"
The video description said "Here is a look at the BYD Owners Meeting, which was held for the first time at Fuji Speedway on 20/4/2025. About 80 vehicles participated, and it was a very exciting event✨"
AI Overview : March 14th is White Day, a holiday primarily celebrated in Japan, where men reciprocate Valentine's Day gifts given by women. It's a time for men to return the favor and express their appreciation to those who gave them gifts, typically chocolates, on Valentine's Day.
h0ngcom : I have never received chocolate or anything else on Valentine's Day.
In Thailand, on Valentine's Day, it is mostly the men who give chocolate to the women.There are hardly any women who give chocolate to men.There may be some, but it is a minority.
The White Day is not exist in Thailand.
March 14th MIGHT BE the birthday of the women I liked in high school, but that was so long ago that I can't remember.
My Grade 12 is the 2005–2006 season.
She is NOT Tang/Taeng or Tangkwa/Taengkwa for sure. I saw some men like her (one Valentine's Day I see she got a chocolate bouquet), but I was indifferent.
I like other girls instead.I never talk to her (the one I like) for some reasons.One reason is that I don't need to talk to her, and vice versa, because she and I are never in the same group.
Hong Com means Computer Room. Hong Net means Internet Room. So h0ng in h0ngcom and h0ngnet (and maybe also h0ngICU or some possible h0ng domain names if I am rich), means "room", not "swan", but who cares?

Video Title : "[Big News] The Black Ship EV is Coming to Japan's Galapagos Light Vehicle Market... / The Impact of BYD's "Light Vehicle EV" Launch in 2026"
Is BYD planning to make and sell kei-car in 2026?? Will it be BYD
Starfish?? (The other possible names for BYD new cars are BYD Manatee
and BYD Whale, but the names are so big in size.)
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gal%C3%A1pagos_syndrome said : Galápagos syndrome (ガラパゴス化, Garapagosu-ka, / Galápagos effect) is a term of Japanese origin used in business studies to refer to an isolated development branch of a globally available product. The term is used as an analogy to a part of Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. Darwin encountered in the Galápagos Islands isolated flora and fauna, which had undergone evolutionary changes independently from the mainland. This phenomenon was a key to the development of evolutionary theory. Darwin stated that due to the differences in environment from one island to another, species adapted to make survival more viable in the local environment of each island. Similarly, a development of goods "in relative isolation from the rest of the world because of a focus on the local market" can lead to similarly differing products.
The term "Galápagos syndrome" has been used as a metaphor outside the field of business jargon. The term "Galápagosization", referring to the process of the isolation of Japanese "Galápagos-thinking", links this process to the Japanese island mentality.
Kei cars ("light cars") are small four-wheeled vehicles/cars that have an engine of less than 660cc and enjoy preferential treatment in the form of tax advantages and lower insurance costs. Originally the Japanese government encouraged the use of those "light cars". This category of cars features a number of different car types including sport cars, minivans and commercial vehicles. However, Kei cars are not seen as profitable in export markets and therefore are only part of the Japanese domestic automobile market. Despite no significant global success, major Japanese car manufacturers such as Suzuki, Mitsubishi, Daihatsu and Honda still produce models belonging to the Kei car category.
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kei_car said : For exports, the vehicles are generally too small and specialized to be profitable. Notable exceptions exist; for instance, the Suzuki Alto and Daihatsu Cuore have been exported consistently since around 1980. The export version of the Suzuki Jimny, with upgrades to increase its width, has also gained significant popularity outside Japan.
* AI Overview said : Galápagos syndrome refers to the phenomenon where a product or service, initially designed for a specific market, evolves into a version that becomes isolated and incompatible with other markets, similar to how species in the Galápagos Islands have evolved in isolation. This can lead to a product or service being uniquely suited for a particular region but unsuited for global adoption.
The term is often associated with Japan, where certain technologies and services, like "garakei" phones, have become highly specialized for the Japanese market and are not readily adaptable elsewhere.
h0ngcom think cars with the size of kei car will be not Japan-only cars anymore. In dense cities, small cars like that are easy to drive. In China, "Mini EV" cars are popular in cities too. So it should be not surprise much if BYD is thinking about make and sell Kei EVs.
In addition, h0ngcom guessed that BYD's Kei EV will have some similar appearances to Japanese Kei cars, at least in shape. And this model will probably have its world debut in Japan. When combined, it may give people (outside Japan) the idea that this model is in line with Japanese standards.

So I see it means Hyundai and Kia are the best EVs right now at least in WCA 2025, because the main WCOTY 2025 champion is the greatest and the most important, and World EV 2025 champion is very important for EV fans. I see the BYD's win in World Urban Car has almost no meanings when compared with them.
Whoever wins... BYD loses.
However, the Thailand's car tariff is still high for cars from South Korea. So there is still no affordable Hyundai EVs here. Even Japan gets the Inster EV that seems to be less expensive than Dolphin.

Of course, the HQ of Avatr is in Chongqing. (The HQ of ChangAn is in Chongqing too.) So it is understandable that a Chongqing channel is supporting Chongqing cars.
Avatr pronounced Avatar. Zeekr pronounced Seeker. We are not the same. We are not in the same auto group.

Unfortunately, I, h0ngcom, won’t be able to buy it before the Thai society are truly accepts them, maybe next century, after I died and my c0rpse burned.
The sinophobes are very common in Thailand. Thailand's anti-China FB pages are working so hard. The tofu dreg tower collapsed case is still recently. It makes people wanting to Anti more, having more interest in Anti contents, and makes the Anti pages more famous.
They also reporting the true cases of Chinese EV fires. (Some details may be wrong, the car brand can be wrong, but at least they are really happened.) The mainstream media does not report them. That gives these pages credibility, and it hits a point where consumers are already very scared. Normally, people are already afraid and avoid these products. This kind of event are making more fears.
So now this is NOT a right time to buy Chinese products.
And h0ngcom think it won’t be until year 2125 that a new Gran Turismo game is aware of this car brand’s existence.
I think Japanese cars, including new brands like Afeela, are still taking over the world in 2125. Then I think the game creaters will see that it is no need to anti Chinese cars anymore. They just existing like the US cars, Euro countries' cars and Korean cars.
However, at that time, this brand maybe still exists or not exists anymore.

Tens of millions of Thai people won't believe that too. (There are so many haters of this brand on Fuckbook/Fakebook.) --h0ngcom
It's funny to me that SONG is cheaper than LYRIQ (lyric).
It is NOT funny to me that LYRIQ is not introduced in Thailand. But it is introduced in Japan, Australia and New Zealand, RHD car markets, according to Wikipedia. Fuck the Thailand's insane car tariffs. And Fuck GM that exited Thailand.
As a Thai man, I really see that advertising product in Japanese language (and Japanese styles) makes product looks much better around the world.
Of course, make the product available in Japan (and make people around the world know that) makes it looks better around the world.
Thai advertising usually creates creative image or funny image. Japanese advertising can creates many good images (such as quality image, high-standard image), which helps gain acceptance from around the world.
Chinese car haters in the comment section below. But it is very understandable why they hates them. One is a Subaru lover. I preferred to Subaru too. One is a Russian man (famous car brands withdrew from Russia due to the war, of course, Russian people want them back).
h0ngcom think he (this channel, NOT IShowSpeed) underestimated American patriots and conservative petrolheads. American cars will never come to the end.
Why US can't? There are many trade barriers the US could use, including a ban on all Chinese auto brands without exception, or now it is having insane tariffs. Or even if there are no barriers, I think many/most US people don't like Chinese products, so who will buy Chinese cars? --h0ngcom
There is a saying that you are a clown today but they will be clowns instead of you in the next days. Maybe that is the case. Who knows? It is not certain!
Of course, EV haters see him as a joke, especially MGUY, the greatest EV hater ever as far as I know.
One day, I see a European EV evangelist/YouTuber made a "diss" video on eViking. That means even an EV lover attacked him! So no surprise that the best EV hater ever attacks him too.
Nevertheless, thanks MGUY for introduce eViking to the EV hater people, so the eViking channel has some more clicks.
By the way, his name starting with "MG" is a joke to me. Look at MG Cyberster or MG 4 XPower ?
To protect the Thai auto industry, Thailand should do that too, but we haven't.
However, it must be admitted that some consumers' behavior in Thailand does not protect the Thai auto industry, by buying Red-Chinese cars with forgotting the reliability, durability, lifetime, social acceptance, etc. And currently, many users of various Red-Chinese cars in Thailand are facing the problem of shortage of spare parts and/or body parts.
HOLY CRAP !! YOU PUT "STELLANTIS" WORD NEXT TO "BYD" WORD AGAIN !! THAT RUMORS SHOULD STOP !!
This seems to be the iShowSpeed's real YouTube channel, but it remains questionable whether he actually bought it as he says.
If iShowSpeed bought it as he said, would he be able to bring it back to the US?
Did the Trump administration fully ban the import of Chinese cars?
Or even if the Trump administration didn’t fully ban it, if iShowSpeed is bring it to the US, I think iShowSpeed would likely to be faces the 125% tariff (insane tariff like the Thailand's car import tax, so Trump's tariff rates does not sound wrong for me).
Yangwang U9 price is 1,680,000 Chinese Yuan. Today, it equals 231,147.00 United States Dollar.
(iShowSpeed says it costs 250,000 USD, about 8.156% more than MSRP.)
125% tariff is 288933.75 USD.
Then price plus tariff are 520080.75 USD, excluding shipping and other costs.
what is difference between "next kodak" and "next nokia"?
ChatGPT said:
The phrases "next Kodak" and "next Nokia" are often used metaphorically in business and tech to describe companies that fail to adapt to major industry shifts — but they emphasize different types of failure:
"Next Kodak"
Meaning: A company that invents or recognizes a disruptive innovation early but fails to capitalize on it.
Reference: Kodak actually invented the digital camera in 1975 but didn’t pursue it aggressively, fearing it would cannibalize its film business.
Failure type: Missed opportunity due to fear of self-disruption.
"Next Nokia"
Meaning: A company that dominates the market but fails to keep up with technological evolution or user trends.
Reference: Nokia was the global leader in mobile phones but failed to adapt to the smartphone era, especially after the iPhone and Android rise.
Failure type: Complacency and slow response to changing market trends.
Key Difference:
Kodak = Early insight, but internal fear/stagnation blocked progress.
Nokia = Late response, despite market dominance, lost touch with evolving consumer expectations.
These phrases are used to caution companies:
“Don’t be the next Kodak” = Don’t ignore your own innovation.
“Don’t be the next Nokia” = Don’t rest on your laurels.
Want some modern examples of companies being compared to either?
To be honest, if it is in Thailand's context, I don't agree with that. I don't say no to American GOODs.
In any case, I see China as a much greater threat to my country than the US.
As a Thai man, I don't have much choice.
To me, in Thailand, I think, the boycotting of American GOODs (or the boycotting of GOODs of western countries) is no different than letting Chinese products win.
Nowadays, there are so many Chinese products and brands in my country. So I want some American products, such as Dodge cars (Hollywood films, especially Dominic Toretto, influenced me to like CDJR cars), but Thailand has such high import taxes for western cars.
I never blame Trump Vance Musk for that, because Thailand has some insane tariffs too.
I like to follow the news about cars and the automotive industries. The Chinese automotive industries are exciting to me. Other countries' automotive industries are not exciting to me because they and their cars are already very good. I do not buy Chinese cars and will never buy them because the society still not accept them and because some of them suck. I still want Japanese analog cars because they are very reliable, not the very digital cars like that.
He always be Teslabjorn. I don't care how he supports Tesla and Elon, because I'm a MAGA man, and I love swasticars too. --h0ngcom.
However, to me, the word like "Tesla is the best" means that I don't need to looking for other brands, likes I always believe that "Toyota is the best".
I think the problem is that Tesla in Thailand still has very few showrooms and service centers, so marketing is still not able to reach people in provinces far from both Bangkok and Chiang Mai. So I am still interested in other brands of cars that have dealership and after-sales service in or near Uttaradit, my town. (I don't use the word City since I am into the Yaris series.)

Is this indirectly selling the nation? Because I, a Thai man, cannot have the same special privileges as you who are foreign person and bought this card. I think, even selling the Thai nationality without any special privileges is sound better.
I actually believe that VW, Toyota and Honda are good cars and will always be good, so I think it's not necessary to watch this video. Dissecting these cars and analyzing them is not interesting for me anymore since there are many new car brands which are much less social acceptable. --h0ngcom.
You said VW treats China and other markets differently? From my perspective that living in Thailand, I see VW treating China very well and treating Laos much better than Thailand.
In Japan, there are insane discounts too. Anyone who has already bought it will definitely be dissatisfied and angry. I think Toyota and Honda will never do like that (at least, will never expose their insane discounts publicly), to making existed customers satisfying and keeping brand loyalties. --h0ngcom

The car, not the airline, is not yet exist in English Wikipedia. This car brand, not airline brand, is almost unknown to the world. It is even less famous than Neta. I don't dare to use it as a personal car. How dare they use them as taxis! --h0ngcom.
1. It likes to wage price wars, lowering prices drastically and immediately, that it is considered a betrayal of previous buyers (before the discount). It also reduces the resale value of the cars.
2. The problem of shortage of parts. Consumers have to suffer from waiting for parts, especially body parts. There are cases in Thailand where it is claimed that waiting for parts can take up to 8 months.
3. People still trusting in Japanese products and don't trust in Chinese products, and also avoiding Chinese products. Car consumers still value stability, reliability, brand image and nationality (of the brand) image more than the technologies in the car. Chinese cars are still highly despised, especially on social medias, but Japanese cars are not.
