Back I was in China, I remember reading news that appears Chinese government was really happy Dr Qian was forced to return. Dr. Qian is really high profile in the sense of academic achievement. I don't think there is high enough salary to attract him back to China with his own free will. It got me thinking. Speculatively, is it possible that Chinese government made a deal with US government secretly to get him back? There are a lot of deals between two governments...

I can't imagine what that deal would have looked like but I guess if they were clever enough they could have caused him to fall under suspicion pretty easily.

I'm thinking more in the form of technological trade.

What kind of deals are you referring to?
