Exactly. Perceptions change based on a variety of factors including soft power and brand recognition. If you read books like Crichton's Rising Sun written in 1980s talking about Asahi replacing Budweiser; Sony replacing RCA; Toyota & Honda replacing Ford and Chrysler you would be convinced that Japan would take over from the US as the dominant economic superpower. It didn't happen but the perception existed all over the western world, particularly the US.
putting humans in space stations don't need 5nm chips, u can use small electron tubes like Soviet instead of chips for your space ship.
CNese just like trading, they just want to buy in cheap price and sell in high price, they just want quick money. Thats the reason CN still can't make good cars till now, even poor country like Afganistan also use Toyota Hilux pickup trucks instead of cheap but low quality CN cars.
So IP means China can't develop fast? can you be not this desperate? China is more and more a domestic consumption driven economy focusing on next generation technology and innovation. Now even Europeans and Americans themselves believe China is a stronger economy, while you cheerleader bunch trying so hard to deny. it's so funny.
China is working on next generation EVs, current generation cars are already very low tech and will be soon a thing of the past. Do you think making cars are more difficult than building large space station and landing vehicles on the moon and Mars?
Do I need to remind u that Soviet collapsed even when she has a big space station ??
We all know why Soviet Union collapsed, it didn't have a robust manufacturing industry to support their vast military spending, while China is the opposite, China's defence budget ratio to her GDP is very small compare to Russia and US and China has been the top manufacturing nation for 11 consecutive years by 2020.

Not only in this forum, every year new global polls about this come out, less and less people are still confident around the world with each passing year, now even Americans themselve believe China is the leading economic world power, who influenced them?
If you like to know anything about China, feel free to ask.
Okay, supposed that CN still has a robust manufacturing industry (when actually 55% to 60% CN companies/ factories are just zombie companies/ factories that making No profit like Evergrande due to trade war and high labor cost ), so what else CN still can produce and make profit ?? Xiaomi ?? Iphone ?? Tesla cars ?? BMW car ?? Shipping indutry ?? Oh, those companies still stay in CN mainly bcs CN is one of their biggest market and create just few million jobs.
That means over a half of the Chinese companies don't function or lose money, who told you this? if this is the case China's economy will collapse in a days, where can China get so much money to support them?
Why I need someone told me ?? Just like in 2020 I already guessed that Evergrande would collapse while No one told me before.
So you guessed by yourself that 55%-60% Chinese companies are not functioning or losing moeny, then where does China get the money to support them, make the country going and get her working population paid, China has universal healthcare and free eduction covering every citizen, where does this money come from?
n where does China get the money to support them ?? They get money from their factories in VN but this way can't last forever , thats why CN's birth rate is reducing now bcs salaries from factories that still stay in CN is not enough for them to buy houses and raise kids.
Lol, you are joking, aren't you? China uses factories in Vietnam to become the world biggest trading nation, biggest export nation and hoard one third of the world total foreign reserves, do you really believe it yourself?
trading mean u just buy and sell. in VN CN factories sell products and make profit, but in CN, you sell products but having no or very paper thin profit. (Xiaomi earn 5% profit each phones while Iphone is over 35%).
lol, China hits record trade surplus every passing month and now boasts one third of total global foreign reserves, China just became the world biggest outbound investor too, mind to tell us where this tremendous wealth came from, by losing money of most companies and factories?
tremendous wealth ?? then why hundred millions CNese still don't have enough money to have kids and raise them, making CN's birth rate keep dropping ?? why still having 600 million CNese earning less than 140 usd per month ??
Choose not the have kids and enjoy life is a sign of development level, almost all developed economies have this problem for decades already, only super poor countries have super high birth rate, doesn it mean they have more wealth to support more children? Germany and Japan have negative population growth for many years, does it mean they don't have money to support more children?
