I would definitely agree with you on their public works projects. However, I watched several commercial buildings (hotels and office towers) going up in Shanghai and all were typical of modern buildings in London, New York, LA or Hong Kong. Even the construction management charts looked very familiar. It was rather amusing that someone had circled a bar chart for the electrical work on the CM board of an office building and in Chinese it said, “Stupid worm, this is going to delay the project by 5 weeks!” Whoever wrote that must’ve worked on a project in Chicago.
