Wie already know the flaws of this design, that's why there are newer safer designs like the epr are build or planned in the west.
You can drive around in a 30 year old car without problem, but most people would prefer the safety standards oft today.
And chinas track record in other parts of the energy business show that shooting that one CEO isn't that big of a help.

The problem is probably the newer designs don't have as many successful rollouts. And when spending 10 years and billions, predictability is important. But after Googling around, I do see France has some non-trivial issues with Chinese safety issues.
