Title. I've read it is pro china but not sycophantic either which would suit me fine, but I wanted to get a crowd sourced opinion.

I mean, that's been pretty openly stated. That all businesses are subject to nationalization at any time. They only allow them to exist as is because of WTO shit and preventing embargo from Western capitalists.
They managed to get America to literally disassemble and transport thousands of factories to China with their current path, and now American capitalists are getting buyers remorse as they're realizing that their usual regime change efforts aren't working.
That's pretty cool. With the Hong Kong and Macau systems up for review around the same time it will be interesting to see what all happens
Yep, there's a reason the US regime change arms are so focused on Hong Kong and Xinjiang. Xinjiang going "independent" (see: becoming a US client state) would essentially cut off China from the West, and Hong Kong becoming a US client would give the US a base of operations in the South China Sea and basically complete control over 60% of China's trade.
If it goes the other way, and HK/XUAR/Taiwan stay closer to China, the US is basically fucked as China will offer a more enticing and socially equitable trade network that will undermine the current financial imperialist hegemony (mainly in Africa/East Europe/Central Asia)
It's kind of funny in a frustrating way to see the west flail against these developments
Xinjiang is considered so important now because the US is scared shitless of the Belt and Road initiative.
That's what the "socially equitable trade network" was meant to be
