Most Chinese are fairly nationalistic. They're not going to complain about this to a foreign documentarian, especially if there's political reprisal for criticizing the one-party regime that runs everything.

This is why stuff like this is important. We get a view behind the propaganda veil. The narrative of "See, we planned ahead all is good," is questionable especially considering their recent stock market and economic woes.

Actually not really, on the documentary everyone complained... even a guy working with the government and specially on real estate.

It's more like TV channels and newspaper trying to give you news that blew your mind, 2010s marketing = WTF effect.
