“My Chinese colleagues are proud of their country's achievements, competing with the United States. In cyberspace, China is the only country that has entered 5G through their Huawei company, and the only one that uses quantum telecommunication. The dam on the Yangzi River is the largest dam in the world. The Chinese train is the fastest and most modern in the world, surpassing the Japanese and the French. In 2011, I traveled from Beijing to Xi'an on a very comfortable Chinese train. And the Shanghai Tower (which I climbed in 2011) is the second tallest in the world, after the one in Dubai. On the unseen side of the Moon only the Chinese have so far managed to send a spacecraft. From the military point of view, China is in a fierce competition with the United States, and Russia [the three power-poles of the world], owning 100 military satellites at present and having been able to experience since 2007 the destruction of a satellite with a ground-to-air missile. In Shenzhen, where I went in 2012, there is a Hitech Park with 600,000 programmers, strongly competing with Silicon Valley.” - Florentin Smarandache
