This is mostly related to its economic, technological, and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.richardvanhooijdonk.com\/en\/blog\/mind-blowing-military-tech-may-eventually-find-way-civilian-world\/\">military development<\/a>. Over the past few years, China has showed great interest to strengthen its industry, and the government has made serious investments in technology and startups. But there\u2019s one thing that\u2019s holding China back from completing its ambitious plan. To become number one, China needs global support, and gaining trust in today\u2019s political climate is difficult. But if <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.richardvanhooijdonk.com\/en\/blog\/china-attempts-to-rewrite-the-rules-of-the-digital-world\/\">China<\/a> somehow manages to overcome this challenge and becomes the world leader,\u00a0how will things change?<\/p>\n<h2>China\u2019s journey toward becoming the second largest economy in the world<\/h2>\n<p>With more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetrumpet.com\/15672-the-rise-of-china-as-a-superpower\">1.3 billion<\/a> people, China is the most populous country on Earth. As President Xi <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/asia\/china-global-leader-national-congress-xi-jinping-worlds-biggest-superpower-within-30-years-a8012841.html\">says<\/a>, this \u201cgreat nation\u201d faced \u201chardships and adversity\u201d, but remained invincible nevertheless. Over the past four decades, China\u2019s economy has experienced significant growth, and it doesn\u2019t seem to be slowing down. In the 1970s, when China started implementing economic reforms, its GDP was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.focus-economics.com\/countries\/china\">valued<\/a> at $214 billion, making it the 9th largest economy in the world. Fast-forward 30 years to 2013, and China became the second largest economy in the world with a GDP worth $9.2 trillion. Its GDP continued to grow in the following years, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebalance.com\/china-s-economic-growth-cause-pros-cons-future-3305478\">reaching<\/a> $23.12 trillion in 2017, which is 6.8 per cent higher than the year before. Moreover, China\u2019s poverty rate decreased, with only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebalance.com\/china-s-economic-growth-cause-pros-cons-future-3305478\">3.3 per cent<\/a> of the population now living below the national poverty line.<\/p>\n<p>By focusing on technology and implementing strategic innovation, China is positioning itself to become the next global superpower \u2013 and many are concerned what a future led by China could look like. The Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC), for instance, developed four hypothetical scenarios of how China could develop in the near future, and it\u2019s made some plausible predictions.<\/p>\n<h2>Scenario No. 1: China\u2019s economy will witness a slowdown<\/h2>\n<p>As RIAC <a href=\"http:\/\/russiancouncil.ru\/en\/analytics-and-comments\/analytics\/china-and-the-us-in-asia-four-scenarios-for-the-future\/\">predicts<\/a>, in the next few years, the US will continue to accelerate economically, while China\u2019s economic growth will be slowing down. However, the good news for China will be that military tensions in the region will be reduced. This is mainly because Pyongyang will <a href=\"http:\/\/russiancouncil.ru\/en\/analytics-and-comments\/analytics\/china-and-the-us-in-asia-four-scenarios-for-the-future\/\">stop<\/a> its \u201cnuclear and ballistic programs\u201d. On the other hand, the US will reach certain agreements with China regarding nuclear arms. Although issues regarding territorial disputes in the South China Sea will remain unresolved, this won\u2019t create a lot of tension in the region. RIAC also predicts that Asian states, including China, will be more economically dependent on one another in the coming years. As China, Japan, South Korea, and other countries in the region will most likely increase trade with one another, they could make the US obsolete, or at least reduce its influence in Asia. And when one fails, another one shines, which leads us to RIAC\u2019s next scenario.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35407\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35407\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-35407 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.richardvanhooijdonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/05\/china-economy.jpg\" alt=\"Illuminated city at night with red-coloured skyscrapers\" width=\"800\" height=\"526\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">As RIAC predicts, in the next few years, the US will continue to accelerate economically, while China\u2019s economic growth will be slowing down.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Scenario No. 2: The decline of US influence in China<\/h2>\n<p>In this scenario, China\u2019s economy will continue to grow. The country will experience political and technological growth, too. This will become more evident after the US financial crisis in 2020, which will occur from US trade disputes with Europe, Canada, and Mexico. All this will lead to slower growth of the US economy, but will give China an advantage, RIAC predicts. Events happening in the US will encourage China to become more open toward its neighbouring countries. Its free trade zone will no longer be based only on its initial geographic boundaries. Instead, it will expand onto the rest of the continent. Furthermore, territorial conflicts and issues will become less critical. When it comes to its relations with India and their border issues, China will accept some concessions and <a href=\"http:\/\/russiancouncil.ru\/en\/analytics-and-comments\/analytics\/china-and-the-us-in-asia-four-scenarios-for-the-future\/\">recognise<\/a> \u201cIndia\u2019s strategic leadership in South Asian trade and economic relations\u201d. Since the relationship between China and India will have improved, India will no longer rely on the US as its security enabler. As US influence in China and India will start to fade away, the US will be forced to look for new allies, such as Japan and Australia.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35409\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35409\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-35409 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.richardvanhooijdonk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/05\/decline-of-US-influence-in-China.jpg\" alt=\"Chinese and American flag\" width=\"800\" height=\"526\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35409\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In this scenario, China\u2019s economy will continue to grow.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Scenario No. 3: A political crisis will shake up the Asian continent<\/h2>\n<p>The third scenario envisions the rise of political radicalism and nationalism among Asian countries, which will become particularly evident in China. This is the time when numerous political crises and terrorist attacks will occur. As a result, China\u2019s economy is going to suffer the most. Due to these issues, the implementation of infrastructure projects around the country will slow down. This will force China to look for support in the US, who\u2019ll <a href=\"http:\/\/russiancouncil.ru\/en\/analytics-and-comments\/analytics\/china-and-the-us-in-asia-four-scenarios-for-the-future\/\">play<\/a> the role of \u201can offshore balancer\u201d and protect China from its potential rivals such as South Korea, Japan, and India. In return, China will probably need to abide by rules imposed by the US, so the idea of becoming a global leader will remain unreachable.<\/p>\n<h2>Scenario No. 4: China\u2019s growth will lay the basis for a new, bipolar world<\/h2>\n<p>In the last, and probably the best scenario for both countries, RIAC predicts that China and the US will both be experiencing growth. China\u2019s rise will emerge amidst military, economic, and political instability in other Asian countries. The US will continue to have an influence in the region, and all of this will force the Asian continent to make a choice between Beijing and Washington. Such a bipolar world will make Russia\u2019s dependency on China a lot stronger than it was in the past. \u201cThe new bipolarity of the 21st century\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/russiancouncil.ru\/en\/analytics-and-comments\/analytics\/china-and-the-us-in-asia-four-scenarios-for-the-future\/\">will be<\/a> similar to the American-Soviet bipolar world from the 20th century. However, the new bipolarity, as RIAC predicts, will be less dangerous than the previous one. To succeed, countries involved in the transition will need to separate economic collaboration from their political attitudes and confrontations.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"China&#039;s trillion dollar plan to dominate global trade\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EvXROXiIpvQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>By taking a measured approach, RIAC has offered scenarios that don\u2019t require extreme events, but rather gradual economic growth that could affect relations between China and the US, as well as China and the rest of Asia \u2013 shifting the global balance of power. However, for China to become a global superpower, it\u2019s going to need more than simple economic growth.<\/p>\n<h2>Is China\u2019s grand plan a myth or reality?<\/h2>\n<p>Although the US has been the world\u2019s superpower ever since World War II, there\u2019s a chance that it could soon be removed from its throne \u2013 and China is a serious candidate. But does this country have what it takes to become a superpower? Over the past decades, China has made remarkable progress in economy, military, and technology. From an average country, China transformed itself and became the second largest economy in the world. But to earn the title of the world\u2019s superpower, China still has a long way to go. And even if things don\u2019t go according to plan, China will continue to play a key role in the global economy and politics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China\u2019s journey toward becoming the second largest economy in the world Scenario No. 1: China\u2019s economy will experience a slowdown Scenario No. 2: The decline of US influence in China Scenario No. 3: A political crisis will shake up the Asian continent Scenario No. 4: China\u2019s growth will the basis for a new, bipolar world [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":50732,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2871],"tags":[4581,4471,4218,4347],"article-type":[],"trends":[],"class_list":["post-58027","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-government","tag-china-en-2","tag-economy","tag-future","tag-prediction"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>4 plausible predictions on how China could develop in the near future - Richard van Hooijdonk Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What can we expect from China\u2019s grand plan to overtake the world?
