In 1820 and 1870 China had the world's largest economy by far.
In fact, for most of human history, China has been number one.
Then from 1958 to 1976 hard power surged, and tens of millions were rusticated, purged, or exiled. Up to 65 million died.
Despite having the world's largest population, by 1980 China had dropped to the world's 10th largest economy. Per capita GDP (nominal) slumped to a truly miserable 128th.
Then China turned over a new leaf.
China's leader at the time was Deng Xiaoping.
He chose to "Think Different", admittedly only partially, and so gave us an inspiring glimpse of the immense progress possible when soft power supplants hard power.
He came to be known as "Architect of Modern China".
30 years later, in 2010, China became the world's second largest economy.
In 2015, China again became the world's largest economy (GDP, PPP).
In 35 years from 1984 to 2019:
◊ US per capita GDP grew less than 4 times (USD)
◊ China's per capita GDP grew 100 times (CNY)
The greatest socio-economic uplift in human history (admittedly off a very low base).
Good News
Now, almost any sufficiently ambitious, progressive and developed country can likewise choose to "Think Different" with similar, better, or far better outcomes.
How so?
The science Einstein used has been synthesized.
It is ready to be deployed, at scale.
Your country can become the world's first Smart Country with a Smart Economy, Smart Citizens, and a Smart Defense Force.
The need and opportunity
Dysfunction costs about 20–40% of GDP. The opportunity cost is much greater. This is both a massive problem and a massive opportunity.
The solution
Smart Science – Einstein's way – is the solution. It is 1,000,000x more powerful. Smart Science makes the impossible possible.
Unprecedented ROI
The deployment vehicle is an advanced tera-scale socio-economic uplift project over 30 to 40 years. An investment of ±4% of GDP can return 100x GDP or equivalent, including unprecedented ESG uplift.
A swarm of Conscious Capital will also chase the low-risk high-return investment opportunities offered by Conscious Citizens operating Conscious Companies in a Conscious Economy.
It is worth noting that Conscious Citizens are much easier to lead, and are far more productive. This means natural, organic, low-risk, and relatively effortless growth.
The Next Step
A series of stepping stones allow gradual, structured, orderly and intentional deployment.
These are described in the "Deploying Smart Science Strategy Map" which is only available to municipalities, cities, regions, provinces, states or countries with more than one million residents.
The cost of the map is USD $1 per resident (once-off).
