Please stay on topic.
Don't bring another country's progress onto this thread.
Unless it adds value to this thread, don't bother.

The moment she thinks she's the first/best in the world...

Oops, I wrote German.

To boldly go where no computer has reached before, the exascale realm can soon be touched and making headlines across the globe

Luckily China is humble enough to not think that way, basically China is unstoppable.

China is just a large developing country which is nowhere close to being where it plans to be in the long run.

What it has achieved so far is only a fraction of what remains to be achieved.

We still have the demanding tasks of national unification, poverty elimination, infrastructure build-up, blue-sea navy build-up, nuclear deterrence and second strike capability build-up, absolute food security, absolute and universal food, health and shelter coverage, industrial self-sufficiency and innovation, and achieving a (still unexportable) model of socialist governance.

We really do not want the world to think of us like a savior or something. China still receives funds from the ADB and UNDP.

Whatever it's china or any state/org/empire... the moment that entity think is the Best/first among their peers, then it's mean the apogee is near and declin will begin. It's like that with everyone.
Ofc China has a long road ahead of her, but as history showed us, "what grew fast, fall faster ".
No need to rush...

ps: China dream could crumble if a revolution or war happen in the way...

I think to think to be one of the equals is not a sign of the beginning of decline. The question is whether the belief about one's actual conditions are false or not. If false, the size of dream/ambitions will not be supported by actual capabilities. Hence, this will facilitate a decline. If the size of dream/ambitions meet with actual conditions, then, it is a merely an issue of management.

I used to think and still think myself, as a researcher in a PhD program, to be at least equal to my peers. If my actual capabilities support this belief, then, I will further progress, not decline.

China dream could crumble if a revolution

China Dream started with a Revolution. Revolutionary spirit is what defines the government of China.

When i Said apogee or declin, I was speaking as a "whole" not by individuals, ofc chinese engineers or else is equal to his peers around.

Empires/states has fallen, mostly because they couldn't innovate or adapt anymore. (except those with particular problems, like wars, drought...) . When an entity "really think" that it's superior/better/first than those around him, it will begin what we call " living on gold". This entity will survive on what he has put aside in his glorious days, and little by little, he will enjoy that state and he will stop advancing/inovating. It's the circle of power, simple as that.

As for the revo/war part. almost everyone started with a revo, but mostly ended him with one too..

China is the largest developing country, no Chinese think it is already "the first/best in the world", and certainly no Chinese declare that China is a Superpower or "Czar" in any field. So your statement is aimless.

China does have an unique combination of all needed fundamentals that move a country forward, as we have witnessed in the past 30 some years. This unique combination works wonder for China, and it also puzzles the rest of world. The conventional western wisdom has failed to understand and explain this phenomenon, hence countless failed predictions. Yours may fall in this category.

Anyway, China is still a developing country, and it is actually DEVELOPING, that is all that matters to Chinese.
