I mean like:

  • Chinese (Edit: Mandarin Chinese) will become the lingua franca of the world
  • The Internation Aviation Language will (probably) become Chinese (replacing Aviation English)
  • Lunar New year becomes a popular holiday (like Chrismas is currently popular worldwide)
  • The Internet will use mostly Chinese Chracter
  • And instead of 26 Latin based characters, you'll have to learn thousands of characters, imagine that ๐Ÿ˜… (or just use a translator tool ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ)
  • There would be a China version of Hollywood, taking over the original Hollywood
  • Fengshui becomes a thing that the world starts to care about
  • UN Headquarters now located in Shanghai (I'm guessing this is the most "international" city in China, right?)
  • Boeing is dead, some Chinese airplane manufacturer now dominates, competing with Airbus.
  • Baidu is default search engine (now with less censorship due to democrarization)
  • Harmony OS (Huawei's Android fork) become the new "Apple", iPhone is now insignificant, ranking below Motorola in terms of market share.
  • Either Windows get brought by some Chinese Bussiness person, or there China makes a Linux distribution that starts off as Open Source with some proprietary components (like how Android is), then eventually becoming Closed Source once they overtake Windows. Lets call it PandaOS (I'm not creative with names 'mmkay)
  • etc...

Sounds like an interesting world ๐Ÿค”
