Its development leads to consider that the competition for global supremacy passes through the sieve of this digital economy. Based on a holistic method, this paper analyzes the evolution and materialization of the digital economy. Contrasting with the Chinese case, being one of the most illustrative on the potential and importance of the digital economy. Notwithstanding, it is reasonable to consider the following hypothesis: if China manages to prevail in the digital race, it will probably dominate the global economy, becoming the economic hegemony in the XXI century.
