You know what lifted most of theses people out of poverty, massive infrastructure and social spending by the CCP, the same reason post war South Korea, and post war Germany and Japan were able to climb so fast, massive government investment. It had little to do with open markets simply because without transport/energy infrastructure and an educated workforce this "open market" would've been worthless to exploit.
