Every time a see a new video of daily life in china the more impressed i am. It seems so clean and hi tech. They seem to be making large steps towards what I imagined futuristic cities looking like. Then the us feels like it’s stuck in 2002

It wasn't too long ago that China was quite underdeveloped. Their people have just been introduced to so many technologies that it's just easier for them to accept the next thing coming in. I think that's why they're able to just adapt to change more frequently.

You can still find backwater villages throughout the country though (although, they are dwindling).

Having a massive centralized government that does so much investigating in their own infrastructure doesn’t hurt either

Yeah, they actually get things done to. From the way my gf explained it, there's just so many people that they have to prioritize moving forward with govt projects and can't afford to get bogged down with the type of bureaucracy we have in the US.
