Do you really believe that China doesn't have it's own R&D? Thats quite foolish assumption to be honest. Besides they are definately building on information obtained from abroad - either legally (for example education from foreign universities, work experience abroad) or not so - but how they apply their acquired information, how they develop existing product, what totally new they create with knowledge etc. is still valuable.
I would even say that U.S. government would be rather incompetent if they didn't atleast assist American industry in obtaining foreign companies' trade secrets.
