tbh chinese doctorate holders contribute to science as much as their european counterparts or even more: so they benefit europe or the us where the research is conducted. but when they start to excel or outnumber their european counterparts then they are considered as a threat and they need to be ousted: when ousted europe pulls the surprised pikachu face when those researchers settle in their home country and try to commercialize their findings: those people benefit from state grants and subsidies. Russia, a country as a large as China with major state budget and yet their scientific contributions aren't as numerous, because there aren't as much hard working researchers as the chinese ones, and the state is underfunded since all the oil money goes to oligarch pockets and what not to spend on expensive cars and luxurious living. So chinese success is earned by merit since the chinese think long term instead of other wealthy but silly countries. What is wrong about plagiarism ? everyone can copy, but what matters is what u make of it next:Steve Jobs did copy, Bill G also did, why china should be an exception: US also making last dicth efforts to hinder chinese progress. At least chinese wealth funds beneficial research instead of promoting wars and subdizing weapon industries. I hope europe sees through this because the us economy is built on theft and hypocrisy. Brics is a first step, but when more countries join the club europe will have to choose in which side of the scale it wants to be, and thus it decides on how it would tip whether in its favour or not. Even after destroying nordstream, europe was already tied with india and russia by buying russian gas throu india, and it didnt buy american gas, since it didn't make any economical sense. the world would be more peaceful with the absence of american imperialism
