The most gold medals that China can get is four in my opinion, I just don't see them winning in men's doubles.

And even 4 gold medals is only realistic if  everything goes completely perfect

I find it quite surprising that China has only one top seed (in mixed doubles)! Though I still think they will top badminton medal tally (for starters even I know that Lee Chong Wei just can't win gold ).

Especially in women's single, you have Li Xuerui/Marin/Nehwal/Intanon and a lot more who all have a good chance of winning.
