We agree on the part that they stay there, but they are hardly the best students. In fact, the vast majority of people that actually do go abroad is directly connected to the fact that they could not make it in the very difficult Chinese high school test. And since a privileged kid will have more resources, they just go abroad and skip the line so to speak. But the level of social mobility that you see in China is incredible, because that test truly favors the best to go to the best universities.
But we disagree that in a conference like the one mentioned, most of the Chinese people you would encounter are going to be US educated.
