In a rapidly shifting world order, two giants stand at the crossroads of history: China and the United States. One ascendant, the other uncertain. One state-driven, the other market-led. Who will lead the 21st century?

In Dragon vs. Eagle, Mike Feng Zheng delivers a bold, timely, and eye-opening strategic analysis of the global power struggle that will define the future of our world. Drawing on deep economic insights, historical comparisons, and geopolitical realities, this book examines the strengths and vulnerabilities of both empires—without ideological bias.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• Why the U.S. manufacturing core collapsed—and how China filled the vacuum

• The silent war over rare earths, semiconductors, and global supply chains

• The limits of democracy and the efficiency of authoritarian capitalism

• How artificial intelligence, population shifts, and cultural identity shape national destiny

• The myths and truths behind America's decline and China's rise

Whether you’re a policymaker, investor, student of international affairs, or simply a curious citizen, Dragon vs. Eagle will challenge your assumptions and spark deeper thinking about what comes next.

This is not a book about taking sides. It’s a roadmap to understanding the forces reshaping our world—and what it means for all of us.
