It's extremely easy. Simply go back to the policies of Hu Jintao.
America was starting to get jizzy with China even in 2010. Hu Jintao was lucky in that 9/11 distracted the US from China's development for about a decade. But the War on Terror spell on the US began to wear off after 10 or so years. Its undeniable however, once China took the position as second top dog economically (overtake Japan around 2010), the American foreign policy establishment would start to notice what China was doing, and the threat they could pose. Hu Jintao, in this respect, was quite blessed to have been leader when the US was distracted elsewhere.
and FYI, Hu Jintao did much of the same Xi Jinping did foreign policy wise, especially in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait military drills. Only that China was considered weak enough at the time for the US to neglect those activities, as well as the US being mired in its own War on Terror bullshit that had succeeded 9/11.
Stop starting fights with everybody all the time.
I am neither a fan of wolf-warrior diplomacy either. At the same time, "picking fights with everyone" really just means countering US aggressiveness. Vietnam and the rest of ASEAN will happily continue trading with China regardless. With EU, I agree that the Taiwan threat was not well-executed. At the same time, Europe must know its red-lines, and the EU knows its future recovery from this pandemic depends on China's economic growth. Hence why Merkel's gov't, while she might raise human rights as a concern towards China, will willingly look past that for her own country's bottom line.
Close the Xinjiang concentration camps. Don't oppress ethnic minorities.
I oppose those camps, morally because I am opposed to all internment, whether it be Japanese, Native American, or US border internment camps. At the same time, don't let this fool you that Anglo-American PR Machines won't use this as an opportunity to exaggerate bullshit. If not Uyghur camps, they'll complain about Hong Kong, and amplify bullshit conspiracies.
Stop military incursions into Taiwan and the South China Sea. Settle the border dispute with ASEAN. Stop sinking Vietnamese fishing boats. Settle the Senkaku islands dispute with Japan.
Like I said, this has been happening for a while now, since, in fact, Jiang Zemin, which I assume you fanboy over. Remember the 3rd Taiwan Strait Crisis? China's been doing this for the past 20 years, but it wasn't until recently anyone cared since Anglo countries thought "oh, but China's too weak for us to care about this lol". Until the past few years.
Demarcate the LAC with India.
Why would China want to instigate this crisis right now? They have nothing to gain. Use your brain; Modi has a shit economy and COVID response right now. You do know whats the most effective way for him to distract the masses from his failures? Instigate a border conflict with China.
Stop arresting lawyers and human rights activists. Give Americans some hope that China will be a benevolent nation and not a fascist empire.
China has been doing this for years now, I don't know what you are getting at. Also, you cannot trust NGOs form the West, as you don't know what their true motivations and secret intentions are. Remember Iraq's incubator baby-murder hoax? Bullshit propagated by such human rights NGOs. Also, why should China just bend over and bootlick America to satisfy their internal superiority complex? No self-respecting country would do that; furthermore, give the Americans an inch, and they'll keep pushing until you've weakened yourself to the point of no return. Americans have no understanding of "win-win" cooperation; their mindset is purely zero-sum. It's not China and US can both win; in their view, only the US can win, and China MUST lose everything.
If you do that not only America, but the entire world will be more warm towards China. People will rally around China against the US like you've never seen before, but the reality is nobody likes the US they just listen to it because they feel there is no better alternative. There is tremendous opportunity.
Are you really this naive? I suggest you go read up "Manufacturing Consent" by Noam Chomsky. This is why Chinese liberals are losing in the country; too misguided and in love with the West and liberalism, the same ideology that failed the West for the past 40 years. Rightfully so, liberalism is losing in China; too arrogant and self-hating, to bootlicking and submissive of the West. Neoliberalism is an utter failure. Why on earth would you want China to replicate this path? Why do you think America is trending towards fascism now? Jesus Christ, you seriously need to go read a book.
