Yeah it’s not clear what China achieved was qualitatively significantly superior than Japan or Korea’s achievements.

I think China’s biggest source of fortune was that their rise coincided with the unraveling of American democracy, which arguably began with the 2020 election, but was well and truly set in motion when American leaders exploited 9/11 and lied to the public to start a war in Iraq.
