it’s honestly a matter of time before a ton of non-Chinese people start seeking academic careers in China
I don’t really see it happening tbh. China doesn’t seem to be that desperate to grab any talent they can (unlike certain other places). Not to mention other factors
Its certainly happening in the UK; Our brain drain is unreal and China offers easy routes for graduates to go work there with flights paid + visas paid right into a job making 2k a month USD; which already puts you in the upper echeleons of Chinas income brackets.
I’ve also seen science jobs for high tech stuff (observatory operation) being paid the highest in China (talking like 500k-1 mill a year)
I wouldn’t be so sure. China has been gradually making it easier for non-Chinese people, even Westerners, to live and work there lately, whereas previously it was extremely closed off and basically no one could get any sort of residence. Whether this is directly in response to an influx of people wanting to move to China or for some other reason I’m not sure though.

Thanks for the info!
Damn I should start unironically looking into this.
