    "A bad reputation and cultural ignorance are probably responsible"

    It's neither of these. A large percentage of Chinese research papers are fake and/or can't be reproduced.

    "a ranking of countries by number of papers published in a set of respected journals."

    Total number of papers published is almost as good as measuring a developer by the lines of code produced.

      Is this true though? Have you verified this claim? Or is it stemming from... a bad reputation
