Real estate prices in western nations have ballooned as a result of Chinese buying. Well-to-do Chinese invest outside the country. They get their money the hell out of China. They get their family out too.
Chinese theft might be the only thing that saves Occidental industry. Novel tech might be too frightened to go there, but maybe not since everyone thinks they can beat the devil at his own game. Everyone knows they're playing with fire and they keep moving there anyway. Everyone knows the products are garbage but they keep buying them. Then something bad and totally predictable happens. Well boo hoo.
