What causes the speed to drop
When there is a dedicated server in New York, he marked the bandwidth as 1Gbps, he connects to another dedicated server in the intranet, which can take up all the 1Gbps uplink/downlink, when linking to the server in Los Angeles, he only has 900Mbps/500Mbps, when connecting to France, only 900Mbps/200Mbps, why there is almost nothing loss in uploading, and download loss is very big. I have tested it at different times, including peak and low hours, and there is no big difference.

This is probably the ISP applying QoS policies. Try doing a mtr and see what ISPs are included. From my personal experience, when traffic goes through a transit ISP instead of direct peering, chances are that the speed will be much lower.
It happens when a whale swims past undersea cables.
Latency, peering, congestion. The further you go, the more points of connectivity there are and further data has to travel.
Some monsters eating your bandwidth..
