Chinese to produce a top scientist or any other inventive person

Using that argument how come the Spanish are building their own homegrown hi speed rail system (after France, the only country in Europe to do so, despite the Germans being leaders in the tech and not having their own network!), meanwhile the UK is projecting something insane like 20 years to be able to have a singular high speed line...which will most likely end up a white elephant anyway...the fact is the Chinese CAN deliver on a lot of fronts, as can many other nationalities, meanwhile places like the UK and USA are falling light years behind...even Obama admitted similar after a trip to Beijing and other places in China...

It's going to be the Chinese century whether we like it or not it seems. Then I'd place living in Spain or even the Gulf states above living in the UK...seen Qatar or Dubai lately?

Cheers and cold beers
