Sure, but I've also known several Chinese exchange students who went to school in the U.S. because the Chinese universities were too competitive. I would guess while there will be some level of politics in the future coming from U.S. educated Chinese people, it really depends on how this international relationship continues to shift in the future. Imo, the vast majority of Chinese politics will be coming from inside the house, but doing consulting work in China between U.S. and Chinese firms will continue to be incredibly lucrative for the foreseeable future. That is where I would bet most of these students will end up. They may do politics after that, but at that level, international capital is at their fingertips, which is far more tempting than politics.
