  Would you mind elaborating?

    It is still too early to tell but what if the corona virus pandemic ends up hurting the us and Europe much more than China? Pushing the shift towards Asia/China into overdrive.

  Not useful since so many Chinese are bilingual already; in China if you know English that might just get you a few more RMB per hour, in the USA you might get a couple of more dollars per hour. Besides, I have a feeling that China is going to get the coming recession much worse than the USA, making interactions (eg via tourism) a bit more turbulent for the next few years.

  Chinese is not a bridge language like English is.
