The article I linked suggested it might be a rehearsal of the first phase of war with the USA/West.Hope not ! Don’t think it would be financially beneficial to anyone. As Chinese and Americans invest in companies that operate in each other countries and worldwide on the global trading platforms.
BTW, that link appears to be short lived.
Despite mutual investment and trade, that doesn't always prevent wars. World War Two is filled with multi-national corporations active on both sides. Standard Oil and Ford are a couple that come to mind in my foggy memory.
