Yeah I really think that's a big part of it. They wanna get rid of the awe the previous generation had for foreign things and an easy way to do that is to make sure that the foreign people that chinese people meet from an early age aren't exactly the most ambitious and successful types. I agree there is something very mean spirited about the attitudes of a lot of the wealthy here. The people here with money generally didn't do anything to earn it...just got their land buyout back when asset prices were low. Paradoxically people who are self-made via hardwork/talent are generally a lot more compassionate than people who had it given to them.
