Normally, China would just steal the technology as the Eurocrats are doing to MSFT and planning to do with Qualcomm. <The Chinese version is still CDMA and royalties are due QCOM. >

They lack appreciation and see things as stuff to grab, snatch and take. They should say "Oh, no, we insist on paying more for such a wonderful thing you have done for us".

See their attitude to Taiwan? It's not "Do you think we should work together or would you prefer to go your own way?" It's "We'll murder you if you don't follow our orders". They could learn from the example of New Zealand/New South Wales/Australia/Crown/British Empire/Great Britain transitions over a couple of centuries.

Civil war is an uncivil way to work together. A Kiwi taught them the idea of Gung Ho [Rewi Alley]. They are slow learners. I have a copy of a booklet from Rewi Alley with his signature. I should auction it on eBay as I don't really want it. My parents visited him in the 1970s.

Gung Ho,
