China does have a lot of agricultural and manufacturing workers who aren’t on computers all day. And they have some pretty poor rural areas. But I’m calling bullshit on Japan’s numbers. Tokyo looks like Blade Runner at night but and the office culture is famous for long hours but no one is looking at screens? Get the fuck outta here.
Go to any major city in China and you will see thousands of people on their scooters, smoking cigarettes and playing mobile games. Chinese people are absolutely glued to their phones.
You're talking about cities but 34% of Chinese people live in rural areas
