Ancient Chinese technology was always at the forefront of the world, but why was it instead overtaken by the West during the Ming and Qing dynasties?

This question is not rigorous, China is technology has been at the forefront, while basic science stagnation. Reason analysis also has a lot of say, I recommend the explanation is: the Chinese way of thinking is more accustomed to the labor production (reality, line) from the summary of some of the laws, but is not good at logical analysis (deduction), so our practical technology is very advanced, but the lack of basic science support, is not going to reach too high a height. Westerners are keen on logic and are better at deductive reasoning, so basic science is developing rapidly. For historical and religious reasons, scientific development in medieval Europe stagnated, but this did not affect its scientific development after the Renaissance.
