I will tell you exactly why many Chinese people choose to live in the West despite a ravenous unapologetic love for China. It's because Western countries are filled with low-performing idiots. Life is too easy here. In China, a student can study 8 hours a day and attend every tutoring program the parents can find only to end up average compared to other Chinese kids. Then, this kid can grow up and get a job and work 15 hours a day staying at grunt level often being cursed out by the manager for mistakes because everyone is a diamond under pressure. In the US, that kid can study 2 hours a day and be the smartest kid in his school, all honors, Ivy League, etc... Then, he can work 40 hours a week at a 6 figure job and be constantly congratulated and promoted at work for being a super performer. Chinese people are like sharks; in a vast ocean filled with hungry sharks, life is always on the edge. But Westerners are like sea turtles. Drop a shark in a sea turtle tank and he will be effortlessly fat and relaxed and never hungry again.
Westerners like to brag about their society for attracting Chinese people. "If your country's so great, then how come you came here?" They thought they'd stump us. They thought that the answer we'd have to hide is that Western society is greater. But the real answer is another stab at their fragile hearts: it's because the West is full of stupid people so an average Chinese person suddenly becomes a genius and it's an easy way out.
If we ever become true titans able to change the world, we often return to China to finally outpour our love and support for our motherland. But until then, our hearts and conscience suffer purgatory in an alien land for an easy life knowing that even if we gave it our all, we still wouldn't be of any service to the China that we love and cheer for behind a TV screen.
Or you could shoot the dog and throw the severed head on the owner's lawn. Both are good.
