    The fact they were studying in western colleges mean they went thru some very serious selection pressures, I doubt they'd even be representative of 5% of the Chinese population

      There's A LOT of not very selective Western unis that will happily take mediocre foreign students.

        In particular if those foreign students come from countries that the university don't have many prior agreements with, as this usually means that they get milked for all the cash they have.
