What is the level of China's GDP and per capita GDP in the world?

In 2020, China's GDP will be about US $16 trillion, ranking second in the world after the United States; However, China's per capita GDP is far behind the world's major countries, ranking about 60 in the world.

Mr. Niu of gmtlight: many Chinese people are beginning to be proud. In fact, there is nothing to be proud of. We are still very, very backward. The gap between our living standard and the developed countries in the world is still very large.

In 2021, China has just started to get rid of poverty as a whole, and the huge consumer market is growing. With the industrial upgrading and the continuous improvement of the market, China's GDP will steadily rise to a new level.
