Until 2017 china couldn't even make a ball point pen. They now import the ball from it so they can make pens. China is a very low tech country who don't invest in r and d. In today's world it's getting harder to steal teach so they are worried. I've no doubt china will fall back into itself like the past and turn into a 3rd world country again. It had not even invented made glass for drinking, windows, reading etc from r 100s of years as it was chasing its own behind thinking China was a perfectly acceptable medium to drink from. Both the middle East, failing once they loose their oil exports and china with it's cheap that experts will fall back to 3rd world states

The problem isn't their ability to produce anything, it's outsiders willingly handing them technology. So long as China is allowed access in some way to advanced technology they'll be a threat to their neighbors.
