Meaning China is doing what Lenin wanted to do at some point - to use some basic laws of globalization (then imperialism) to kill its source. Formulated as "they will sell us the rope to hang them", and didn't transpire. But, well, Lenin planned for NEP to last till 80s, and then start all the socialist reforms in the society. Then he died. Together with most of those famous Bolsheviks from Soviet movies about the revolution. All from different reasons in a few years.
In this case rejecting the logistical and power benefits from using Chinese labor and facilities seems impossible as of now for Western economies.
