China’s share of global GDP has increased from 3.6% in 2000 to 17.8% in 2019 and will continue to grow, the CEBR said. It would pass the per capita threshold of $12,536 (£9,215) to become a high-income country by 2023.
absolutely insane

Yeah if all I knew about China was everything up until 1950 and you asked me what it would look like 70 years later, I'd probably say "Sad, poor backwater" not "Leading industrial power"
They're gonna miniaturize themselves any day now.
I wonder what China's population would be if it weren't for Mao... I'm thinking 10 billion.
Probably in an India-style situation where food security is tenuous for many people.
What would India's population be if Gandhi was a Maoist?

No that was Churchill's plan.
And it wouldn’t even be just for the one-child policy, which IIRC didn’t necessarily correlate with a lower birth rate, but rather for the phenomenon of high living standards = less kids.
