How do you imagine this works, western government can’t manage potholes but CCP beurocrats can manage AI, Car production and solar panel production and beat our companies? Are they superhuman?

I've worked for a Chinese company and with Chinese company partners, but I am not Chinese, so my understanding is probably very, very incomplete. The way it seems to work is that the "influence" from the CCP scales with the size/success of the company. Every business in China operates at the very least with consent of the government. As they get more and more successful, they gain a little more influence/encouragement/cooperation with government. By the time they are giant, successful companies, they're all but an appendage of the government. Hard to explain as an American because we don't have similar "quasi-government" institutions like this. I guess it would be a little like the Federal Reserve--it's technically not the government, but works hand-in-hand with the government.

Bureaucrats in different countries operate at very different levels of efficiency. e.g. Germany vs Italy
