Given the enshittification of the BBC I'd say journalist wangled a free ticket to the car show, was desperately trying to find the hook to write the story on, and asked the BYD rep something nigh on insulting like "How can BYD be profitable when they are locked out of the world's biggest car market ?" And given they're not allowed to say "We're already doing just fine bitch, we don't need to kiss the orange fascists taint" then you get that carefully diplomatic quote
