Because China has been movin at top speed towards a trade economy, and suddenly turning so hostile against a new market (that in all honestly would not care all that much about chinese politics) is suspicious by itself.
I left this open so we could later decide what to do with them. The only thing that will come out (for the reader) in the "Gas Station" story is that the Chinese had their fingers in the attack on the European station on Pan. Still, their motivation is not revealed.
Quote:For that matter, lets go deeper (underneath the underneath, as the people of certain Asteroid woudl say); there have been sugestions that the Boskone War was scripted by some hidden enemy. The Boskonians stand defeated, but of that hidden mastermind we know no more -not even if they actually are real or paranoia.Might be an option.
What if the War was plan A, and since if failed, it's time for plan B, corruption and civil war? It will fail; the needs of Plot require it. But the attempt may give us the overeaching plot for the new season.
