China can only “win” if English usage gets better there. Because to win means to get Europe e.g. to see them as example. But we understand too little of Chinese in general, the culture and the language. We do however almost all get taught murican, I mean English at high school (have to note that few year after my high school time, you can now study Chinese and do some exams on it)

Well, China itself has more than 1 billion people, and there is still plenty of room to grow its domestic market. That market is large enough to sustain tons of companies. More and more Chinese actually feel they’ve wasted too much time learning English, which is only need for a small number of jobs
