Smart. When I was younger. I was thinking of this vector and was surprised China allowed it in the first place.

Especially with what China was framed to be and how it was framed to behave in the media.

There is a major discrepancy between "cynical hostile anti-western communist regime" and "let's send our kids there to study".
