By what metric?

China has the world's largest HSR network at 45,000KM, 15x that of Japan's 3,000KM network.

Chinas fastest regular use line is 350KM/h. Japan's is 320KM/h.

(AFAIK) China is the only country with an operational maglev line (in Shanghai). A 30KM line at 430KM/h. While Japan's Maglev is still under construction.

So what are the metrics that Japan's rail system cooks China?

They're also way bigger than Japan.
