As a party spokesperson, Gao will probably stay at plausible deniability levels of subtlety with his burns. Like his statement here is obvs saying Britain isn’t competitive, but he can easily claim that he’s just saying they don’t compete with each other.
Chen has a bit more of a free hand with which to openly slap faces.
