A new study looking at the Overseas Chinese experience edited by Fujian’s Huaqiao University (华侨大学) claims that less than a third of Chinese students who’ve studied abroad since 1978 eventually return to China. From 1978 to 2009, only 497,400 students out of the 1.62 million who’ve left have made their way back to China. The new findings are in line with the trend of everyone and their corrupt fifth uncle wanting to get out of China, which leads us to suspect that for the majority of Chinese, the true meaning of the Chinese Dream is to simply find a way to leave.
