Highly unlikely. Despite the rampant anti-Chinese FUD that's so prevalent in the media (and, sadly, here on HN), China isn't really in the habit of invading other lands.

The plot twist here is that China doesn't view Taiwan as foreign.
But China also doesn't see war as the best path forward in Taiwan (they want to return it to the mainland, not lay waste to it). The grandparent comment is unfairly downvoted in my opinion, the fact remains modern China is far less likely to be involved in military campaigns than, say, the US.
