It would be great for China's economy and their cultural relationship with the world if the could start exporting technology in the consumer space. Much of America's cultural hold on the world is via the products they export. Such as the famous images of people in Japan going to KFC or finding McDonalds or Coca-cola everywhere was seen as a connection to the west.<p>Much of it is due to America's export on media (music, films, etc) which I doubt they will find much competition. But I am also finding myself watching many more Chinese films that are <i>good</i>, and not just from Hong Kong but mainland China. They might be able to compete one day in the foreign films market such as the way France has in the past.<p>China has dominated the B2B world for a long time but I'm looking forward to seeing them take hold in a human-world. Which means they have to figure out consumer marketing, which is tricky, and probably will need to be sourced locally from the West.
