"Prior to joining Arm, Wu was the founder of AccelerateMobile in Silicon Valley, and held management, marketing, sales, and engineering positions at Mentor Graphics, LSI Logic, and Intel."
He definitely increased economic growth for a while, a very competent man. Now he captured a part of Arm for China and his experience (presumably) allows him to competently manage it.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not criticizing him. He deserves praise - a patriot exploiting stupidity of foreigners for the benefit of his people.
China is never going to repeat these strategic blunders, which is what virtually guarantees a Chinese century - once they're top dog in something, good luck trying to learn anything near state of the art if you aren't Chinese. They have enough people for a complete blanket ban of foreigners for any position even near advanced knowledge or executive control.
Ironically, you shit on Elon Musk, yet SpaceX is the only entity that has the potential to prevent a total Chinese domination of yet another sector - space. It's somewhat protected by ITAR so there's a real chance.
