Super power doesn't mean military might and economic prowess alone.
Soft power such as culture and influence still go a long way. And last time I check, every 3rd world school still insist children to learn English, not Chinese.
In NY at least, we were required to take a language in jr high/high school: Spanish, Italian, or French. Are you implying that any country that speaks these languages is more influential and powerful than China, because some douche bag decided that these are the three languages I have to learn.
3rd world school children learn english, because the Chinese are smart enough to not waste their resources and time on useless allies, that do not help them in any way. The US does some ass backwards imperialism where we lose money for what........
I think the op meant will China become a hegemon, to clarify.
