China actually wants people to visit them and spend money.

And although I don't agree with the CCP ideology the Shanghai subway is ridiculously impressive.

Remember most of the Chinese train infrastructure was built in the time since the Hyperloop.

Chinese train infrastructure also had a lot more casualties than any modern Western nation, even with a conservative estimate of the covered up ones. Building fast is a lot easier if you can break some eggs.
