Maybe China is now reaching the same point the US did about 1.5 centuries ago, where starting to protect their own IP is strategically more important than stealing other countries IP.

For a long time, the USA was an international pariah for stealing IP from Europe, then it started innovating enough itself that suddenly protecting its IP was more important than stealing other people's IP.
