The future of high technology at this time does seem to be in the hands of China with the rest of the world contributing a bit.

I highly doubt this. So far, what China has done is producing lower cost equivalent to products already developed by other nations. I don't see how China is leading the pack in terms of innovation, here.

Beside, I don't think we can consider smart phones to be "high technology" anymore. The market is saturated with them and the innovation has slowed down massively since a couple of years ago.

I have heard this refrain from those in the west for decades about china. During those two decades China has exceeded every attempt to keep them at a certain level of development.

I do not see that stopping.

When China will invent game changing technology that benefit the world in a massive way, then we'll be able to say they're leaders.
