And you can see that from the recruitment of some of the best talent across several frontier areas that are now arriving. >> Yeah. in the Chinese university system. So, we're going to continue to see, you

I mean, I just I love the narrative of it, the the way the figures sort of told the story just from a from a even aesthetic and like uh you know, narrative point of view. I thought the paper was just very well written. >> They know what they're doing. >> Yeah. >> Um they're not just copying us in all
