The language is still a barrier to that so it will happen slower than one would think. Top scientists from everywhere outside China generally know English and not Chinese.
That said, China is sponsoring lots of foreign students from belt and road countries to come there and learn Chinese, so its a work in progress.
A scientist moving to a country isn't usually expected to learn the local language, the vast majority of laboratories speak English.
