In a case I know, they paid retired but talented American engineers for the development of products in a catch-up strategy. It is discrete, it sounds like "R&D in China" and "Chinese product", and it is successful. Chinese government-related companies are also pragmatic.

In the most understandable words, China buys our Govt Bonds. Last I heard they do not ship galleons of gold. Directly or indirectly they send either their goods or their currency. And what would you and your trader do with a closet full of yuan? You would buy the best value with it. And chain stores are full of the evidence, period.
