I am not confusing anything. I was talking about creating AND acquiring it. That example was from acquiring category. So on top of huge R&D spending they also acquires current technology from worldwide technology leaders in their fields (like in the example o high speed trains).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...ent_spen ding - China is number 2 already with 1.97% of its budget (one of the biggest numbers in the whole world).
On top of that they plan to spend even more in the future:

You probably get your "facts" from biased western media which still tries to portrait it as "stealing technology and cheap unskilled labor" country which is being less and less true.
You can not be more wrong on that point number 4 in your list. And again, that makes me wonder about the validity of other points you made there..
