There's no 1B+ user market automatically; There are so many poor people in China living on $1.50 per day. (I think maybe 8-900 Million)

Exactly. Many people forget that Chinais not just Shanghai or Beijing. During my travel in more rural parts I could see farmers who had virtually no tools to work their land, about everywhere. This is not a rich country, this is a poor country witha few pockets that are massively developped.
56% of China population now lives in urban area. So urban population is technically a majority.
Urban area does not mean to be the same kind of level of life as Shanghai.
