The image of China as an uncreative, uneducated backwards nation of drones good only for assembling phones, hasn't been the reality for at least a decade.

A lot of people in the West don't realize this because to this day there's a vicious cycle of people only import cheap Chinese crap because China has a reputation for only making cheap crap because people only import the cheap crap. They don't realize that China is also making top tier products, because nobody's trying to import top tier Chinese products.
