I mean like:

  • Chinese (Edit: Mandarin Chinese) will become the lingua franca of the world
  • The Internation Aviation Language will (probably) become Chinese (replacing Aviation English)
  • Lunar New year becomes a popular holiday (like Chrismas is currently popular worldwide)
  • The Internet will use mostly Chinese Chracter
  • And instead of 26 Latin based characters, you’ll have to learn thousands of characters, imagine that 😅 (or just use a translator tool 🤷‍♂️)
  • There would be a China version of Hollywood, taking over the original Hollywood
  • Fengshui becomes a thing that the world starts to care about
  • UN Headquarters now located in Shanghai (I’m guessing this is the most “international” city in China, right?)
  • Boeing is dead, some Chinese airplane manufacturer now dominates, competing with Airbus.
  • Baidu is default search engine (now with less censorship due to democrarization)
  • Harmony OS (Huawei’s Android fork) become the new “Apple”, iPhone is now insignificant, ranking below Motorola in terms of market share.
  • Either Windows get brought by some Chinese Bussiness person, or there China makes a Linux distribution that starts off as Open Source with some proprietary components (like how Android is), then eventually becoming Closed Source once they overtake Windows. Lets call it PandaOS (I’m not creative with names 'mmkay)
  • etc…

Sounds like an interesting world 🤔

What do you think?

      What “Han Chinese policy”…?

      You know the one-child policy only applied to Han Chinese in major cities right? Ethnic minorities were exempt.

      And ethnic minorities have autonomy, meaning they rule themselves and have their own laws/governments. Like the Tai people in Guangxi, or Inner Mongolia where they still have signs in the Mongolian script. While in Mongolia they use the Cyrillic alphabet 😄

      The Chinese government sponsors local cultural events and practices, builds temples to local religions (like the largest Buddhist temple in the world in southwest China), incentivizes learning local languages (by having bilingual schools) etc etc.

      What has any western country done in that respect? In guarding and preserving minority cultures? Like how are Canada or Australia doing? I won’t even mention the US 😄
