"Chinese scientists have no choice but to leave US, top mathematician says
Many feel ‘uncomfortable’ because of discrimination, according to Yau Shing-Tung"
"[....]
In a survey of 1,300 US-based scientists of Chinese descent conducted between late 2021 and early 2022, 72 per cent of respondents said they did not feel safe as academic researchers. And 61 per cent said they had thought about leaving the United States for either Asian or non-Asian countries.
Despite an overall fearful sentiment, 89 per cent expressed a desire to contribute to the US leadership in science and technology, according to the results published in the peer-reviewed journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2023 by researchers at Princeton University, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “Our survey uncovers many Chinese-American scientists’ intention to avoid applying for federal grants out of fear of federal government prosecution under the China Initiative,” the team said, referring to a policy launched in 2018 by then-US president Donald Trump targeting scientists with perceived links to Beijing.[...]"

The answer to "Do you want to contribute to American leadership" is actually embedded in the answer to "do you feel safe in America"
Latest update on CF’s upstream industry. JGTec makes the entire lineup of machinery that makes carbon fiber. They are exporting CF production lines to Korea and Saudi Arabia. Chinese companies are beginning to dominate the most upstream and exclusive capital goods industries upon which all other downstream hi tech industries depend.
Likewise the Chinese machine tool makers are venturing into the ultimate machine tools: those that make key components of other machine tools. The entire industrial supply chain has been completed
the kind of scientific infrastructure China is building is unprecedented. in last 2 years, total 24 projects were completed and filled the gap in domestic R&D
The world's first low-energy, high-current, high-charge heavy ion research device developed passed the acceptance
on December 10 that the world's first low-energy, high-current, and high-charge heavy ion research device developed by the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a national major scientific research instrument development project, announced that it has passed the expert acceptance organized by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.
According to official introduction, the device can provide heavy ion beams with high intensity and high charge state, and with many ion types and a wide range of energy variations. It will provide advanced experimental conditions for cutting-edge research in nuclear astrophysics, atomic physics, and applied research such as nuclear energy material development.
Public information shows that the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has adhered to the "four orientations", led the development of my country's heavy ion science and technology, and accelerator-driven nuclear energy technology, and has achieved a number of major scientific and technological achievements.
the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is responsible for the operation and construction of major national scientific and technological infrastructure such as the Lanzhou heavy ion accelerator, the high-current heavy ion accelerator and the accelerator-driven transmutation research device, as well as experimental platforms such as the 320kV high-charge state comprehensive research platform and the low-energy high-current high-charge state heavy ion research device. It also has the Lanzhou Heavy Ion Accelerator National Laboratory, the Key Laboratory of Heavy Ion Science and Technology, the Gansu Province Key Laboratory of Ion Beam Medicine Research, the Gansu Province Key Laboratory of Space Radiation Biology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences Ion Accelerator and Quality Inspection and Testing Engineering Laboratory and other research platforms.
