You could troll them.
Which would put you in the position of being a rank amateur playing against a top pro.

#83I found it interesting that the espionage is largely aimed at the private sector and not the government: > About 70 percent of China’s overall espionage is aimed at the U.S. private sector, rather than the government, said Joshua Skule, the head of the FBI’s intelligence division, which is charged with countering foreign espionage in the United States. > “They are conducting economic espionage at a rate that is unpar…
Think of a scenario where certain government employees have accounts on some Private sector service: Maybe a Grindr or Tinder -- if they can work to obtain any sort of compromising information from those services - they can then use it to manipulate government employees ("Do what I say, or i'll out you")... In fact, pretty sure a Chinese co. recently obtained controlling interest of Grindr. https://www.nytimes.com/20…

Why? That's the proven strategy to leapfrog yourself into a developed economy. It's what the US, Germany, and Japan all did.
The US, Germany, and Japan are all technology leaders. None of those nations leapfrogged into a developed nation by copying others.
Of course, once you become a manufacturing leader, you want to pull the ladder up from under you, in the form of strong IP laws.

It would be humorous if they recruited employees of startups, the philosophy of moving fast and break things along with spends as much money as possible as fast as you can will have China using sub-par software and bankrupt within months, countries can't pivot and looking for exit through acquisition would be nigh impossible!

#87New jobs program: you pretend to have all kinds of heavy duty intel, let the Chinese government hire you and then milk the new position for all it is worth. Could be a thriller, but I would pitch this one as a comedy.

#88If you really want to lose sleep at night .... consider the fact that foreign intelligence agencies likely have EMPLOYEES at top tech companies....
American intelligence agencies likely have EMPLOYEES at top Chinese tech companies. Spies are going to spy. I'm far more concerned about my government spying on me, then China spying on me.
Foreign spies on American companies is an extremely serious issue. What happens when a Chinese spy takes over a power plant? What happens when integrity tests at water treatment facilities are fraudulent? What happens when the wrong reaction happens in a big pharmaceutical processing plant?
Millions could die.
You're more worried about the government finding out what type of porn you prefer.
