There was a vast economic potential that had yet to be tapped by any other European power at this time in history, ironically enough when they did successfully reach China the Qin dynasty was already much more technologically advanced than the Europeans that had arrived and viewed their offer as invalid due to their perceived "backwardness" technologically.

What led the japan's invasion on china?
The reason why China has become the coveted target of Japan is that China has a large territory and abundant resources, while Japan has a small land area and a very lack of resources. Another reason is that during Japan's transformation to industrialization, its economy developed rapidly, but China is still a closed country and a backward agricultural country. At that time, China was simply vulnerable. It was really sad that even Japan, a small bullet country, dared to invade. At that time, it was undoubtedly a once-in-a-thousand opportunity for Japan. Access to China's territory and wealth, so they also have the qualification to fight with Western powers, so they want to use China's territory to obtain the capital to squeeze into the list of world powers, so as to dominate the world.
