This is not same people who complain endless about China copy IP without paying? So now we have a Chinese company willing to pay for the use of an UK university patents and the UK government says no. When the Chinese company inevitable develop a similar technology and the Manchester university sues for patent infringement, the Chinese company should respond "well we wanted to pay you but your daddy say we can't"

China is making progress in decreasing land degradation.
"Total area of degraded land in the Yellow river highland had about 450,000 sqkms at the peak since start of monitoring. It has now been reduced to 23,4200 sqkms, as measured in 2020."
"In all the degraded land, 1.1 million sqkms, or 41.35%, are caused by water erosion. The other 58.65%, or 1.57 million sqkms are wind erosion."
"In 2021, total land area of water erosion decreased by 1.27%, or 14,200 sqkms compared to the previous year. In the same period, wind erosion dropped by 0.27%, or 4,300 sqkms."

Want a good laugh? Watch this forum of panic over Chinese technology. They don't really talk about technology. It's just the US, EU, and India ranting to figure out how they're going stop Chinese technological independence which is all about to them denying themselves from China. They talk about how they wrongfully helped China to being a technological behemoth but somehow they aren't when it's supposedly their technology. Why is India even a part of the conversation? The guy here is so spirited because he knows India is wholly dependent on the West on them pushing China down for them because that's the only way India can surpass China and not by raising itself up. What's the problem over AI and fintech? They will have theirs and China will have theirs. That's what's the problem is because they want China to have theirs also but as Gordan Chang just said Chinese independence is a malicious act against the West. They talk about regulation because they want China to follow their regulations so that the West will always be in control. European governments have compliance departments solely to make sure they follow what the US commands. They think China is suppose to have one too. As usual when you cutoff all the bull, when the West talks about freedom, it's only about their freedom not anyone else's. By their logic Hitler was a freedom fighter because I'm sure he believed in his own freedom too and not anyone else's if that's all it takes.
Because he finally feels like part of the white men's club? Stronger than any drug out there. Brown coolie in white sahib phenomenon.
Indian colleagues grovelling before white boss is common sight in international companies.
Or maybe that’s the only way, you know, they can contribute.
Recently CVPR, one of the two most prestigious conference in "machine vision" was held at New Orleans. China had almost half of the accepted papers. 
Last time when the conference was held in person in 2019 at Seoul
Sensetime is probably the world's greatest computer vision company. Megvii is also a serious company.

In this conference, a Korean team was found having pirated others' works in their paper that was selected for oral presentation. It painted a big black mark on face of this prestigeous event.
Screenshot of the paper by the Koreans:
This anonymous tweeter user exposed the theft.
The whistleblower made a video that compares the Korean paper, paragraph by paragraph, to the original papers which the Koreans copied from.
