Go to China in the countryside, not one of the major cities and make that claim - where a really good job pays $1000/month.

Their purchasing power exists only within the Chinese system.

If you’re talking about the purchasing power of the CCP, like Belt and Road, that’s an entire house of cards built on debt worse than our system.

Yes I was talking about local purchasing power.
If you price all purchases by locals and then price the same activity in USA, their GDP numbers will be much bigger. Imported goods cost about same everywhere. A Cadillac purchased in India is not any cheaper than in USA.
