New Prediction
Why do you think you're right?

Microsoft will not close its AI Research Lab in China because China supplies a large amount of technological capital for a low price. This capital is useful for Microsoft's production. Additionally, the presence of Microsoft's AI Research Lab is a pillar of US enterprise strength in Asia, and its removal could have political implications. 

Files
Why might you be wrong?

Political forces may force Microsoft to remove its location there. This may be in order to declare economic independence from China.
