For security reason by Chinese government. The code is examined by an agreed agency or entity before being distributed within China. China also replaced or removed feature integration (such as onedrive) from Windows. What you buy from legal channel in China is a Chinese version of Windows ever since.
Using pirated MS software had a long history well before the agreement without blessing from the government. The government simply did not bother to enforce IP rights before.
So the real reason and probably only reason for the agreement is security from the government perspective.
- The government can be sure that there is no backdoor of MS product.
- The legitimate copy of MS product used by government is continuously secured by update and patches.

So Chinese govt know ins and out of Windows code? interesting
yes, the source code of windows is examined, the compiler is also examined so it won't translate innocent source code to nasty binary code.
it looks...cute -_-

Some interesting screen grabs. I don't have the video yet. Apparently, the Army is now experimenting with drone swarms as well as unmanned ground combat vehicles to augment its combat capabilities. The captions say that a swarm of 10 UAVs engaged enemy ground targets in two sorties.
China displays land, sea, air combat robots at expo

China introduced some of its latest achievements in military intelligent technology by displaying advanced land, sea and air combat robots at an expo in Beijing on Monday, showing the Chinese arms industry's fast development to meet the demands of future warfare, analysts said.
Organized by the Chinese Institute of Command and Control, the 9th China Conference on Command and Control and the 7th China Military Intelligent Technology Expo kicked off in Beijing on Monday and will last until Wednesday.
The event aims to accelerate the Chinese military's intelligentization development, enhancing its joint and all-field combat capability based on a system of network and information and boosting its integrated development of mechanization, informatization and intelligentization, the institute told the Global Times at the event.
Developed by Beijing North Vehicle Group Corporation under the state-owned China North Industries Group Corporation, the Pathbreaker unmanned ground vehicle weighs 1.2 tons, runs at a top speed of 30 kilometers an hour with caterpillar tracks, and is equipped with an armed reconnaissance system which allows it to conduct reconnaissance, fire assault, patrol, search and destroy operations, as well as strike guidance in complicated terrain at high mobility.
It can be remotely controlled, or automatically follow combat personnel and independently avoid obstacles, an employee at the booth told the Global Times, noting that more advanced types of land robots similar to the Pathbreaker are being developed and will hopefully join the Chinese military service in the future
Dubbed the Robo-Shark, the underwater robot that looks just like a small shark independently developed by Beijing-based Boya Gongdao Robot Technology features low noise, long endurance, fast speed and high flexibility.
Replacing the traditional propeller, the Robo-Shark's power source is the bionic tailfin, which can give it a top speed of six knots.
The sea robot can conduct underwater close-in reconnaissance, search and rescue, battlefield surveillance, anti-submarine, hydrological survey, communications relay and underwater tracking missions, the Global Times learned.
The Robo-Shark is currently on a project with the military based on the latter's needs, according to the company at the expo
Beijing Aerospace Zhongfei Technology brought different drones to the expo, including target drones that are not only used in training exercises but also in real combat as decoys, and vertical takeoff and landing drones for reconnaissance and patrol missions.
Digital systems used to command and control the combat units were also on display.
