Has helped changed the minds/policies of the Chinese?

<snip> Uh, because my daughter Gracie was known by 1.3 billion people in China....

The Chinese ppl are very proud and see themselves as rulers/makers of the world. With good reason given their amazing advancements while most of the western world was still digging out roots and killing each other.

They were washed away by technology in the 20th Century, but look who is doing well again....

Huntsman is looking at the Chinese as barbaric - they are looking at him as a means to an end.
