Keep in mind that all China's economic numbers are made up.

jacksmith6015 Even China knows its reported GDP is skewed. The whole system is weighted towards dishonesty. Regional governments are rewarded for things like GDP growth and population thus they report higher numbers, play this out for 20-30 years and China's actual GDP is 20-50% smaller then reported. These issues with official Chinese government statistics have fostered attempts to obtain better estimates of Chinese GDP, using methods that vary widely. Some methods are simply corrections to the official Chinese GDP numbers, while others use alternative variables like energy imports that are correlated with output. Alternative data series are particularly useful if they are not compiled by the Chinese government. There are a million different sources out there that discuss China cooking the books, feel free to look them up for yourself.
