Predicting China "surprises"

Oxymoronic speculation from the McKinsey Quarterly:

• China announces that by 2020, half of the cars in the country will be electric. It invests tens of billions of dollars in R&D toward achieving that goal.
• The Chinese government buys a 50-year lease on an entire geographic region of Mexico, enabling Chinese companies to build factories there to supply the North American market more easily.
• A major office block collapses in Chaoyang, Beijing’s central business district.
• A leading Chinese company tries to buy an iconic US technology firm (or two).
• A restructuring of China’s telecommunications industry turns into a complete consolidation.
• The English Premier League football association buys its Chinese counterpart, the Chinese Super League.
• Warming cross-strait relationships lead to a merger between the mainland’s Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and Taiwan’s Chinatrust Commercial Bank.
