Fuck it hurts me to say this as a former China hawk. But:

How does Chinese immigration work for STEM?

What does residency look like for someone making $500+ k in America?

What are the Y Combinators? (No CCP Tans.)

You get a job offer for very large amounts of money and their HR will handle you getting a work visa. If you’re making very large amounts of money and still feel like living in China after five years apply for a green card.

You would have to be insane to consider founding or investing in a Chinese startup when you could do so in Silicon Valley or even NYC or Austin.

With all due respect, you´re not thinking long-term, or dare I say even medium-term.
