Assuming the US pays back the debt, China will be richer. But, if US defaulted, it doesn't matter to China because they just conjured up the money in the first place.

They loan out this money... China could loan dollars out too. They have a bunch of them from US people buying more chinese goods than chinese buy american goods. good luck! No one can just 'conjure up money'. That isn't the way the systems work.

China refers to a one of the world's oldest civilization comprising successive states and cultures dating back more than 6,000 years. Due to the stalemate of the last Chinese Civil War following World War II, China currently looks like two separate countries: the People's Republic of China (PRC) and Republic of China (ROC). The PRC administers and governs mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau, while the ROC administers and governs Taiwan and its surrounding islands. Each government used to claim that it was the only official government of China. However, PRC is nowadays widely accepted in the world as the only offical government.
