No.

Am I missing something? The Mi Box already has Android TV.

Not really. You may be able to get the leanback launcher to work if you sideload it, but it's still not going to work like an Android TV device.

I wonder if the debug firmware that is in the rooting thread would work on Chinese version. I thought that the hardware was the same and the Chinese version has an unlocked bootloader. If I had one and was not afraid to brick it I would try. But I do not have one to try.

you have to put it in trash because you can do literally nothing with it, no androidtv, no tv apps, no google play, no google cast, no netflix full hd / 4k, no voice control, and much more.

Unless you have elite programming skills, it won't work.

like the Wetek Play 2 is an android box.. but a home user who knew what he was doing actually got Android TV to work on it (with all the support codec's) so you can actually put Android TV on that box. It took him a month to do it though and he knew what he was doing.
