  Uhm... Because China needs tech sector as money source, not a money sink maybe? So it is implausible they would spend money on a tech company. I'm not aware of any facts in favor of the contrary.

    As far as I can tell the Chinese government primarily sees becoming the technological leader mainly as a strategic goal and not as money source. Not in the short term at least.

      Yes. The influence they would have if the large parts of the world depended on them for internet and communications is insane.

    Don't they already have a huge money source of being the world's factory?
