So is the implication that he's just going to source all those things from a Chinese company? Basically the next Tesla and chargers will just be rebadged BYDs or whatever?

It could be as simple as securing more/better access to China’s significant rare earth deposits that batteries need. Could also be signs that Tesla is offshoring or pushing harder into China’s domestic market, but they’re way behind there
