This is so silly. Why would SAFRAN, GE, Airbus and Boeing be in China if they did not want to partner with China?
Obviously, they do. And at far greater scale than most countries because China provides a huge market.
But China does not claim the GenX and Leap C or the A320 or the B737 (unlike the weirdo Mexican.)
Do you know that Boeing has only one overseas plant and that is in China?

China only claims actual Chinese engines like the WS-10B on the J-10C exported to Pakistan:

Chinese Hackers Targeted International Aerospace Firms for Years

Chinese state-sponsored hackers conducted cyber-espionage operations targeting various aerospace-related firms for years in an effort to help the county’s advancements in this sector, Crowdstrike reports.
The identified hacking operation started in January 2010, just after the state-owned enterprise Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC) announced it had selected U.S.-based CFM International to provide a custom engine — the LEAP-1C, which is based on the LEAP-X engine — for its C919 aircraft.
According to Crowdstrike, the CJ-1000AX engine produced by the Aero Engine Corporation of China (AECC) bears multiple similarities to the LEAP-1C, which suggests that it benefited from the cyber espionage efforts of China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS).
International aerospace firms such as Honeywell, Safran, and several others were targeted. Malware used in these operations included PlugX and Winnti, already known to be favored by Chinese threat actors, along with Sakula, a malware family believed to be unique to the group.

MEXICO CITY — As tensions between the United States and China rise, and as the coronavirus pandemic is forcing some U.S. companies to rethink their far-flung supply chains, Mexico has a message for the world's CEOs: Move here instead.
The Mexican government calls it a “relocation strategy” — a campaign to convince companies that they’d be safer bringing production closer to the U.S. market, to a country with a newly signed North American trade deal and a warmer relationship to the U.S. government.
“As a result of the covid, many global value chains are going to form regional chains for reasons of efficiency, profitability and also for safety,” said Ernesto Acevedo, the country’s deputy economy minister. “Mexico is going to take advantage of this moment.”
U.S. companies were beginning to shift some production away from China before anyone had heard of covid-19. Aside from trade tensions,
firms complained about intellectual property concerns, rising labor costs and political instability. In February, the consulting firm Gartner found that 33 percent of global supply-chain leaders had either shifted sourcing and manufacturing activities out of China or planned to in the next three years.
Mexicali, BC- Last May GKN Aerospace Mexicali received the corporate instruction to increase by more than 100 percent the current volume in the production of the NEO Firewall,
which is a component of the Pratt & Whitney 1000 (PW1000G) engines that they will be powering Airbus aircraft, specifically the A320neo.
