China Man comes to USA and gets busted, why?

Was Mr. Sun working for the Chinese Military?
According to the US Attorney it was, "announced the arrest of FUYI SUN, a/k/a “Frank,” a citizen of the People’s Republic of China (“China”), in connection with a scheme to illegally export to China, without a license, high-grade carbon fiber that is used primarily in aerospace and military applications.
SUN was arrested yesterday after traveling to New York to meet with undercover agents (“UCs”) in an effort to obtain the specialized fiber, which – due to its military and aerospace applications – requires an export license for export to China.
SUN was presented last night in Manhattan federal court before U.S. Magistrate Judge James L. Cott.
Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said: “As alleged, Fuyi Sun attempted for years to acquire high-grade carbon fiber for illegal export to China.  Earlier this week, after traveling to New York from China to finalize the deal, Sun allegedly told undercover agents that the carbon fiber he sought was headed for the Chinese military, and then paid tens of thousands of dollars in cash to purchase two cases of it.  And to avoid law enforcement detection, Sun allegedly directed the undercover agents to ship the carbon fiber in unmarked boxes and to falsify the shipping documents regarding the contents of the boxes.”
Assistant Attorney General John P. Carlin said: “Sun allegedly attempted to procure high grade carbon fiber for a source he repeatedly identified as the Chinese military.  The carbon fiber – which has many aerospace and defense applications – is strictly controlled, and Sun expressed a willingness to pay a premium to skirt U.S. export laws.  The National Security Division will continue to work to identify and hold accountable those who seek to violate IEEPA and other laws designed to protect our strategic commodities from those who may wish us harm.”
HSI Special Agent in Charge Angel M. Melendez said: “Keeping items such as this high grade carbon fiber, which can be used for military applications, from falling into the wrong hands possibly endangering national security, is a job HSI takes very seriously. Through this investigation, we have disrupted an alleged attempt to knowingly circumvent export controls and ensured this material will not be used for nefarious purposes.”
DOC Special Agent in Charge Jonathan Carson said: “A top priority of The Office of Export Enforcement is identifying and disrupting the illicit export of items for unauthorized military end-uses and users in China.  Carbon fiber has military, missile and nuclear applications.  In this case, working with our law enforcement partners we thwarted an alleged attempt to illegally export carbon fiber to China.”

But this story leaves me with a lot of questions. Was this guy working for the Chinese military? Is this how the Chinese military operates? Do they have lone wolves working for the Chinese Military? If he is working for Chinese military, will the Chinese government retaliate?
This guy reminds me of another Chinese fellow I met at FCI Fort Dix, when I was in prison there for 13 1/2 months as part of my almost 44 months of imprisonment. Poor guy was walking the track every day and learning English and Spanish. He said he got a 12 year sentence for copy righting software. I never saw his papers so who knows what the truth was. He said he came on a flight from China to the USA and he was busted. He says he leaves behind a wife and a child and every time he talks to his wife, he tells her he is coming home soon.
