What have the Chinese invented in the last 50 years?

[Long Duck Dong]

I was looking at some sources for Chinese inventions in the modern era, after seeing that a research facility in Hong Kong feels confident they will have a synthetic human eye implant that will be better than our natural one, within 5 years.

Their list of inventions seem pretty weak, especially considering they are among the most intelligent people on earth. I see a few things like a passenger drone, the lightest carbon fiber on earth, a synthetic bovine insulin back in the 50s, and a few other things but not very many. The Japanese by contrast appear to have invented a lot more things in the last 50 years. Although Europeans, North Americans and even South Americans have invented way more stuff than Eaa

Intelligence doesn't always translate into ingenuity does it?

[scuzzy]

The world still eating good off WW2 innovation

[tpols]

chinese just copy and steal. they are smart, but not creative. Just have a very rigid social structure that demands education and discipline.

japanese are the asian innovators look at their success in cars, technology, and video games.

You should remember that it wasn't until 30 years ago that China went from its socialist economy to a market economy. Prior to that, their effort was primarily focused on pulling themselves out of poverty and not on innovations.

Now that they've achieved that, research in technological innovations is still heavily funded by the communist party and directed towards its goals.

They might have not invented much recently, but they probably have the highest rate of technological adoption in the world. You'd be surprised at how high-tech their society is.

thats a nice sugar coated word for theft lol.

they have no reason to respect intellectual property laws created in other countries they steal from.

Using technology means theft? You clearly don't know what the term means.

Technology adoption is a term that refers to the acceptance, integration, and use of new technology in society.

they do steal IP tho. left and right they have fabs copying phones and other tech that was created by others. it's not an attempt to create someting similar, it's an attempt to steal and sell knockoffs...huge difference between tech adaptation and straight up theft

everybody knows chinese use their manufacturing base to reverse engineer the products they export.

and create companies to make it the same way but for cheaper in the long run.

why play dumb?

[LAmbruh]

they have the best vidya hackers

try COD Warzone or Apex late night on a Asian server

they have the best hacks and are openly cool about using them too, even try to sell you some

don't confuse Chinese with Koreans, Japanese or Islanders though.

all have their own pros and cons

[DoctorP]

the chinese have invented a way how to not get lynched by white people in the united states

how to be a self supporting communist country that hasn't been invaded by US. overwhelming geography simply makes it too difficult, Empire of Japan taught them that. and ofc decades later the Vietcong. turn their heads to pick on a unstable middle east and SA countries overrun by cartels

why play dumb? Have you not realized that i didn't even address the topic of intellect property theft at all in my first comment? I'm not even denying that they're doing it. I'm talking about something else entirely. However, because you're incapable of reading properly, even after I clarified that I'm talking about technology adoption, you keep talking about technology theft.

Let me clarify what I was talking about once more. If you still don't get it after this maybe I can draw you a picture? I'm talking about technology adoption. The fact that, even though, they don't create new technology themselves, their society isn't reluctant in implementing, using and embracing any technology that comes out.

For examples:
- While most people and businesses worldwide haven't embraced NFC mobile payment, Chinese people have and have now introduced facial recognition payments.
- When we talk about saving the environment and ban plastic bags and straw, they built the biggest fleet of electrical busses in the world (99% of them are in China) and build 3 of the 5 biggest solar power plants in the world.
- When Obama has allocated billions into developing a high speed rail network in the US and we haven't built 100 miles in a decade, the Chinese have built 22,000 miles in the same time span.
- When Amazon talks about possible package deliveries with drones, China has already been using drones for delivering packages, meals, groceries and now they've deployed drones for their covid-19 responses.

Now that China brought itself up from being a impoverished country to a super power in less than 30 years, we'll see if they can innovate in the decades to come.

The Chinese people are more intelligent than Americans on average, they will utilize what's most efficient at their disposal. That's not really the question.

As far as ingenuity. Of the things you mentioned

NFC tech - American
Drones - British American
First practical solar cell - 3 Americans

[Phong]

The Chinese people are more intelligent than Americans on average, they will utilize what's most efficient at their disposal. That's not really the question.I already addressed your question in my first comment. The state of their economy and their government priorities in the past 50 years wasn't conducive to technological innovations.

Now that they've caught up, we'll see if they can innovate now.


As far as ingenuity. Of the things you mentioned

NFC tech - American
Drones - British American
First practical solar cell - 3 AmericansI never stated that they were Chinese inventions but ok.

**** that

[Long Duck Dong]

Now that they've caught up, we'll see if they can innovate now.



The Chinese have been a super power for a while but most of their innovation is reengineered or stolen from Western nations. By the time, the world takes notice of major innovation coming out of China, our world will have become so integrally connected and globalized it will be difficult to tell who is solely responsible for any innovation.

Btw no one was stopping China from bringing itself up from an impoverished nation sooner. Fortunately Western media technology and programming showed them the way to how modern humans should expect to be treated and how successful nations thrive. That and the US putting the Japanese in a state where it was difficult to continue oppressing them. Hong Kong is probably the "freeist", happiest, most successful per capita region in all of China. It's no coincidence, that it's because that area was under British rule for so long.

[Phong]

As far as ingenuity. Of the things you mentioned

First practical solar cell - 3 Americans Actually I'd like to see who your credited for those inventions.

NFC Tech: you seem to credit an American for building the first object using RFID. Yet it was Sony and Phillips, a Japanese and a Dutch companies who devised the modern NFC tech.

But then for Drones, if you credit the first inventor of unmanned flying vehicles, you'd have to pick an Austrian, not a British or American.

The solar cell? A Frenchman.

It seems that there's no consistency on what criteria you choose to decide who's the inventor. The ones who discovers the technology first, the ones who've expanded on it or the ones who brought it to the market.

[Long Duck Dong]

NFC Tech: you seem to credit an American for building the first object using RFID. Yet it was Sony and Phillips, a Japanese and a Dutch companies who devised the modern NFC tech.

It was Charles Watson working for Sony in the USA



But then for Drones, if you credit the first inventor of unmanned flying vehicles, you'd have to pick an Austrian, not a British or American.

Austria used balloons with explosives. Technically it's a drone, I guess. But the first remotely controlled drone was a Brit in the USA.



The solar cell? A Frenchman.

First practical solar cell was invented in the US by Americans. The Frenchman discovered how to make a solar cell but he still didn't know how to make it function. The Greeks and Romans used solar power as well.

[Phong]

The Chinese have been a super power for a while but most of their innovation is reengineered or stolen from Western nations.Uhh no. They were a major manufacturing hub between the 80s and 90s but weren't a superpower. They were a powerful economic nation in the early 2000s but still not a superpower. Only recently has China become a major economical, military and political player on the international stage.



By the time, the world takes notice of major innovation coming out of China, our world will have become so integrally connected and globalized it will be difficult to tell who is solely responsible for any innovation. That's already the case. All innovations are built on previous ones like I demonstrated in my post just above.



Btw no one was stopping China from bringing itself up from an impoverished nation sooner. Fortunately Western media technology and programming showed them the way to how modern humans should expect to be treated and how successful nations thrive. That and the US putting the Japanese in a state where it was difficult to continue oppressing them. Change the time frame you've selected and you'll realize that western civilization was backward when Chinese civilization was flourishing. Every countries go through cycles, not long ago modern humans were slaves in the US and Japanese people held in internment camps. That's not something to be boastful about.



Hong Kong is probably the "freeist", happiest, most successful per capita region in all of China. It's no coincidence, that it's because that area was under British rule for so long. Happiest Asians because they were under British rule. You should see the condition they live in, the despair in the youth there.. happy :oldlol:

According to the World Happiness Report (https://www.tripzilla.com/taiwan-happiest-country-in-asia/101844)published in March, it's Taiwan.

It was Charles Watson working for Sony in the USA First, it is Charles Walton, not Watson.

Second he never worked for Sony, he worked for IBM then created his own company. He then sold his first RFID patent to Schlage, the lock maker.

Sony and Phillips devised the modern NFC technology.


Austria used balloons with explosives. Technically it's a drone, I guess. But the first remotely controlled drone was a Brit in the USA.Ahh so your criteria for who invented what changes from invention to invention. Brit in the USA.. so a Brit.



First practical solar cell was invented in the US by Americans. The Frenchman discovered how to make a solar cell but he still didn't know how to make it function. The Greeks and Romans used solar power as well.Again, cherry picking who discovers, invents or mass markets an invention.

[iamgine]

Even if they didn't invent anything new in the past 50 years, don't they advance some of the techs they steal? Could be wrong but I thought they did.
