Why were the Chinese not more interested in following up and consolidating their hold on the Pacific

The question I pose, here, is why were the Chinese not more interested in following up and consolidating their hold on the Pacific given these explorations?

1) Compare and contrast the the social and economic origins and accomplishment of the Chinese Admiral Zheng He and the Genoese merchant explorer Christopher Columbus.

2) Compare and contrast the Chinese states and societies of the era 1400 to 1600 to those of Europe. Why did China accrue so much power and wealth and the European state system generate instability but also innovation?
