In 30 years, the Chinese economy has grown 14.8 times-or seven times Deng Xiaoping's prediction that it would quadruple. At the end of 2008, as a financial crisis spread throughout the world, China held foreign reserves of nearly US $ 2 trillion. It would therefore seem that those who are bullish on its future should be able to declare at least a temporary victory.
30 年後，中國經濟規模成長了 14.8 倍，等於 7 倍於當初鄧小平的「翻兩番」預期；2008 年底金融危機席捲全球，中國挾其近兩兆美元的龐大外匯存底，被各國視為財神爺，亦可顯示「看好派」暫時獲勝。
