Canada contributed to China's HSR and somehow doesn't even have HSR of it's own. Japan contributed and doesn't have any successful exports except to Taiwan, after 60 years of operation.
That wasn’t the point. The point is, China would not have this without other countries’ help. Love the comment or not, truth is sometimes hard to bear. But you have to live with it.
I know how you operate, bouncing good points off with whataboutisms. That doesn’t work with me. I was merely stating a point, so don’t be defensive. I admire China for it’s strength and knowhow, I love it’s culture, but it was isolated so long it would have taken it another century to catch up without help. We have a lot to learn from each other, so calm down. Take a breath, and breathe.
lol, every country rail system was inspired by someone else. Japan had tech transfers from the UK in 1868 for railway construction. 300 British advisors were used. Then they independently made HSR ahead of Europe in 1964. What China did is nothing new. CRRC is positioned now to export HSR en masse, which is unprecedented and maybe actually crush their competition due to extreme cost efficiency (Alstom, Siemens, Kawasaki)

I think they're doing pretty well.
