The undisputed fact is in fields where China is competitive, the top talent is staying in China. The one's coming to work in the US are either unable to compete in the competitive Chinese market, or are hoping that experience gained in the US (in fields where the US is still a industry leader) will enable to them eventually be more competitive in the Chinese market. Doesn't matter whether these are postgraduate students or not - a PhD by itself means absolutely jack shit.

Heck, if I had the skills / knowledge to be competitive, I'd return to China to work for Huawei. But I don't, while in the US I can easily cruise along at the elite level of my field.

In fields where China is still catching up, it's a good thing for Chinese students/engineers/scientists to spend time in US gaining valuable experience and knowledge. This is why the Trump administration raised such a big fuss of limiting the number of Chinese nationals that can study/work in certain fields in the US. It absolutely does not matter if a large number of these Chinese stay in the US - since the best of them are returning to China with their skills and know-how. The ones that stay were simply not good enough.

I know a lot of Chinese people, both who chose to stay in the US and those who chose to return to China.

Those who returned to China or plan to return to China are generally one of 3 groups:

Group 1 is extremely smart and talented, often in STEM; they want to go back to China for the oppertunities there and I often hear back from them by group Wechat or something where they recruit further talent for their new start-up or something.

Group 2 wants to work in the US for a bit longer to build a stronger resume with better experience before heading back.

Group 3 are total monkey-ass retards who just couldn't survive in the US. Thier rich parents bankrolled them; their English sucks and they did their degree in hotel management and hospitality or something at a stupid people college or got an online degree. They basically spend most of their time at drunken karaoke and trying to pass ESL.

Then, there are those who chose to stay in the US. I can remember none of them answering any different from, "Competition and work are too hard in China. I need to live a relaxed lifestyle in the US."

If it's sth like hyperloop they will realize that's a blind path. Normal maglev is the way to go, and they go that way too.

It is a vacuum tube transport system being tested. Same as what Hyperloop tried to do. Hyperloop is done and dusted like Solar Roadways or whatever that project was called.

Chinese teams are just doing this for the sake of doing it. Building models and segmented prototypes, evaluating, learning, seeing if they can make it work. Realising it's impossible and then shelving it. It's probably just a project to start it off. Elon Musk himself didn't think it was viable and invited academic and industrial institutions to "compete" and have some fun. It's a thought experiment people want to verify certain aspects of. At the end of the day, the projects won't go anywhere anytime soon. It'll probably be decades before this stuff is even viable. If new Maglev HSR trains can get above 500km/hr of real world service speeds then there is really no point to introduce vacuum tube maglevs like Hyper-Loopy where costs would no doubt be many orders of magnitude higher that offers much greater dangers.

China Electronics assists the nation’s first domestic-made computer monitoring system for 700 MW hydropower units to be put into operation

On August 6, the country’s first domestic-made computer monitoring system for 700 MW hydropower unit, Huaneng Ruiwo HNICS-H316, which was jointly researched and developed by China Electronics, was successfully put into operation at Huaneng Xiaowan Hydropower Station, controlling China's high water head and large capacity hydroelectric project. The core monitoring system in the field of hydropower is now independent.

The computer monitoring system is the "nervous center" and the core control system of the hydropower station. Through the intelligent control of the hydropower unit and auxiliary systems, it can realize the automatic start and stop of the unit, the intelligent adjustment of the load and the operating conditions, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the power grid.

Mastering the core technology of hydropower computer monitoring system and owning completely independent intellectual property rights is an important support for guaranteeing national energy security. Chips and operating systems are vital parts of the system and need to meet the performance and security requirements of computer monitoring systems in complex application environments.


Feiteng Information, Huaneng Lancangjiang Company, Xi’an Thermal Engineering Institute and NARI Protection have jointly developed PLC (programmable logic controller) based on Feiteng CPU, independent device type AGC (automatic power generation control)/AVC (automatic voltage control system) realizes the optimization and innovation of the functional modules of the lower-level computers produced nationwide, and enhances the reliability of the operation of the generator set. Kylin Software participated in the research and development and implementation of the localization of the hydropower monitoring system throughout the entire process. It provided the system with the Galaxy Kylin advanced server operating system V10 and customized security reinforcement solutions, thereby improving the stability and security of the system base.

This project is also another successful practice in the energy field after China Electronics assisted the commissioning of the first domestic ultra-supercritical thermal power unit independent safe DCS and the independent safe wind power PLC. As a national team for the cyber information industry, China Electronics is accelerating the creation of a core force and organizational platform for the national cyber information industry. After nearly ten years of hard work, it has broken through and mastered key core technologies such as CPU chips and operating systems. The successful research and development of the hydropower computer monitoring system will further enhance the safety level of my country's power infrastructure, and it also means that related technical achievements will be transferred to the stage of large-scale promotion and application.
