Like it or not, the systems in China are just really efficient at manufacturing and R&D. When you can just litterally dump money into R&D departments while keeping the cost of the product competitive with slave-like labour, you're pretty much set for success. The industrial revolution in the west benefitted from the same. A lot of new tech, plenty of money to invest in improvements, and shit pay for the factory workers.
