It is a very flawed logic to start with and your effort to show Chinese as some kind of super power is quite laughable.
Taking credit of Taiwan's progress as that of China's progress is akin to Pakistan taking credit of India's progress or Britain taking credit of Americans success. Such logic is pure poppycock .
And regards to claims of Chinese having higher IQs is a very poor effort. Calculation of IQs and comparison across countries have to be done based on standardized IQ tests rather than some random IQ tests done in different countries in different ways. A common methodology to measure and compare IQs across the countries is important, in absence of which it is a wasteful effort to compare IQs of people of different countries. It will most likely be wrong.
Let me see if I can change your mind.
During the last census (i.e. year 2000) in the United States, there were three sub-categories for East Asian Americans. The three categories were Chinese-Americans, Korean-Americans, and Japanese-Americans.
There was an uproar over the three sub-categories for East Asian Americans. People of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese descent were upset that they were singled out on the census. On the other hand, other people felt excluded. Andy Rooney, who is Caucasian, complained that it was unfair to create three special ethnic categories for Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese only; while others had to pick White, Black, Hispanic, or some other broad category. Andy Rooney is an influential and long-time commentator on CBS's 60 Minutes program. The government responded by saying that it would eliminate the three sub-categories in future censuses. The government also commented that there are other ways to collect the information (on the three ethnic groups).
Taiwan is part of East Asia and Taiwanese-origin Americans can only choose from the three sub-categories. Obviously, they selected the Chinese-Americans box. Furthermore, if you tell an American that you were originally from Taiwan, they will say, "Oh, you're Chinese." If you don't believe me, ask your friends in the United States.
Chinese American - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Within this community, the
term Chinese American is often broadly defined to include not only immigrants from mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau and their descendants but also immigrants and
descendants of people from Taiwan[6]"
A prominent example of a Chinese-American is Elaine Chao. Her picture is prominently displayed to the right in the Chinese-American article on Wikipedia. She is the first Chinese-American Cabinet member, as Secretary of Labor, in U.S. history. She served in the George W. Bush administration. American TV and print media virtually-always referred to her as Chinese-American.
American Street Blog Archive HUD Secretary will resign
"
Elaine Chao is the first Chinese American, and the first Asian-American woman cabinet member in US history. She’s also the only original cabinet member still serving in the Bush administration."
Elaine Chao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The eldest of six daughters, Chao was born in Taipei, Taiwan...."
Though she is a Chinese-American, Elaine Chao was born on Taiwan. In the American mind, there is no such thing as an ethnic Taiwanese-American. There are only Chinese-Americans of Taiwan-origin.
Want more proof? Let's see what a Taiwanese, YU Ming, in America thinks.

"I'm a
native taiwanese as they call it, but i'm
also a chinese, no problem with me being a Chinese, i'm even a DPP supporter.
we in taiwan are separated with the communist chinese politically , but we are still culturally and ethnically the same, soon we'll be economically connected."
There you have it. The American government thinks Taiwanese are Chinese. The American people think Taiwanese are Chinese. American TV and newspapers think Taiwanese are Chinese. Native Taiwanese think they are "also Chinese." Join the consensus-bandwagon. Repeat the mantra, "Taiwanese are Chinese."

On a different topic, regarding Pakistanis and Indians, most Pakistanis are Muslims and most Indians are Hindus. Chinese and Taiwanese are...um...just Chinese.
On another topic that you brought up, America and Britain do indeed have a special relationship.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapons_and_the_United_Kingdom
"Since the 1958 US-UK Mutual Defence Agreement, the United States and the United Kingdom have cooperated extensively on nuclear security matters. The
special relationship between the two states has involved the exchange of classified scientific information and nuclear materials such as plutonium.
...In 1974 a US proliferation assessment noted that 'In many cases [Britain's sensitive technology in nuclear and missile fields] is based on technology received from the US and could not legitimately be passed on without US permission.'"

"The Ministry of Defence has been forced to reveal one of the most closely guarded secrets behind Britain’s nuclear weapons programme.
For years UK ministers have repeatedly refused to say where neutron generators – a vital component of the Trident warheads stationed on the Clyde – were manufactured. The information had to be kept secret for national security reasons, they said.
But now, having been confronted with undeniable evidence by the Sunday Herald, the MoD has admitted that the devices are imported from the United States. And in so doing, it has opened the *Westminster *Government to a barrage of criticism from assorted experts, politicians and campaigners, who now claim that Britain is not in full independent control of its own nuclear deterrent."
Also, only Britain is permitted to fit her submarines with U.S. Trident missiles. No other country in the world has been granted this special privilege.
