That's silly. There are more native Mandarin speakers, but they all live in China and Tawain... meanwhile English is widely represented at pretty much every nation in the world due to it already being the international langauge of buisness.
If any langauge was going to overtake the English Language as an international language it'd probably be Arabic when Muslim immigrants start integrating themselves at higher levels of most of europe.
Really even Spanish seems more likely.
Chinese is way too localized. I think there are more english speakers in China, then there are chinese speakers everyone else in the world except china (and taiwan)
