Btw, such a policy is not a Chinese invention, but a well established & bringing profits trend in East Asia, others practiced too:

In particular, a massive state investment (in R&D, tech acquisition, production facilities, markets conquering), state auxiliary support, guaranteed contracts to boost revenues, and securing as much as possible of a local content (more manufacturing power, tech, employment...

revenue & taxes).

All these tools act as a huge carrot (incentive) for a businesses or as a huge stick (if those incentives are taken away forcing those who don’t comply to go bust, etc.).

The power is more important that wealth and the former is the function of PRODUCTIVE FORCES which open up new productive sources and generate wealth in every production cycle.
