Actually this is good news for China. It shows that the west is very worry China is getting stronger. So the west need to stir harder to create argument and fight within the Chinese government

China is not becoming stronger but more dangerous. With just hardliners in the standing committee China will worsen the Taiwan and south china sea issue as the economy become mismanaged to stir nationalism.

All that changed when Xi takes power.
