CITIC Securities vs. Lazard Singapore?

Rising Sophomore at a top 5 target. Managed to land summer through some connections at Lazard Singapore and CITIC Securities in Beijing, both IBD. Laz is obviously better known, but I've heard that they have low deal flow. I'm fluent in Chinese so CITIC won't be a problem, but not sure how they stack up with BB/top boutiques. Goal is US IBD in the future. Thoughts/insights? Thanks!
