A superpower is a state with a leading position in the international system and the ability to influence events and its own interests and project power on a worldwide scale to protect those interests; it is traditionally considered to be one step higher than a great power.

superpower is a country that has the capacity to project dominating power and influence anywhere in the world, and sometimes, in more than one region of the globe at a time, and so may plausibly attain the status of global hegemon

The basic components of superpower stature may be measured along four axes of power: military, economic, political, and cultural

"

A lot of Chinese confuse economic power with superpower. That is actually a different interpretation of the word "superpower" at the most. If you use commonly used criteria of superpower to measure up China, China will need to improve political, cultural and military fronts significantly.

At this point of history when China still has big part of its territory not unified, it is pointless to talk about superpower status of China.

Just by the way they thought what a superpower should be, they have absolutely no idea of what a superpower is.
