China is simply not the best in technology. They are simply opportunists that is gaining from the dependence of the Western countries on China as the world factory. China is the world factory because of its cheap labour and large market ( more 1.3billion people ). Take it or leave it. Using government policies, China made it mandatory that Western Multinationals operating and producing in China must forcefully directly or indirectly transfer technical knowledge to the Chinese. In most cases, they are forced by government policies to produce their components in China instead of importing them from their companies outside China. In this way, technology is transferred to them one way or the other and remember, the workers employed are mostly Chinese.

But one thing recommendable about China is they were able to utilise these knowledge gained from the West to outsmart the West. The Chinese backed the small companies they had with large finances and with their cheap labour and limiting policies, they blew other companies and countries out of the competition in many technologies . For instance, you can't compare Samsung and Tecno phones but in Africa, Tecno and infinix sells more than hundreds of millions of phones per year unlike Samsung just because of their cheap price tag. INFINIX clearly states that their design is even done in France and their research centers in France and Germany. Same thing with construction. You can't compare Julius Berger and China civil in terms of strength and innovation but China civil is taking most contracts in the world due to cheap labour they offer which is one-third and below that of Julius Berger price tag.


You all thinking China is the best, go and do your research. Even 5G wasn't invented by China but they were the first to implement it in their country despite the health hazards. The foundation for 5G started way back in 2011 by Japan and USA and companies like Verizon and ATT&T has this technology long before China but can't implement until it is approved as not being a danger to health. China nonetheless doesn't care but care about name and money. Of course, China didn't lay the foundations of 5G. But they want to take over the world with their cheap labour strategy. of course they will give loans for countries that need to procure 5G but can't afford. I won't be surprised. Don't forget that your unborn children has billions of debt to pay in future to China. Soon China will start taking over countries using debt strategy same way they took away the port of Greece from them. Kenya is heading same way too. Well, that's a bit of diversion from the topic.

You can call China a powerhouse in technology but don't forget that China is still the world's factory and technology transfer is compulsory directly or indirectly in China. Cheap Labour, World factory status and their policies will keep them on top as a leader in technology but for how long? The West is already looking for alternatives to cheap labour and dependence on China. Africa would have been the best spot but I don't need to tell you why it is imposible. As such, India is the next promise Land for them. To verify this information, do your own research and read this link too. https://hbr.org/2010/12/china-vs-the-world-whose-technology-is-it

Seconded.

All they know how to do is copy copy that's why most of their products are substandard.

You need to see their version of Rolls Royce....you will be shocked. Lol

Check Chinese version of Rolls Royce

You will see the Chinese version of Mercedes, Toyota, Honda, lambo, Cadillac etc in this link. They don't even think twice. They copy it exactly the same way it is but at a cheaper price. That Rolls Royce version sold below 30k Euros then. Lol. You can imagine

That's how it should be. Not our gullible nation that will import virus provided it increase the bank account.

When other countries depend on your country for their sustenance it makes you a world power.
China may not have the best technology, but they are one of the 5 countries that don't rely on other countries for their sustainability.
And if I may tell they have one of the largest technology markets in the world....
