What kind of misconduct? There is a big difference, for example, between plagiarism and fabricating results.
And which percentage of the researchers are involved in this? 1%? 0.1%? 0.01%? Do you have any studies you could link to that in any way quantify this?
China's research spending and number of research articles produced today is second only to the U.S. There are always going to be some bad apples among that many researchers. That should in no way discredit the rest of the profession.
