Interesting comparison. Just checked, and Shenzhen is currently ranked 6th in the world for number of stops. Paris is #5 and Wuhan is #7.

In just 20 years, with all these new metros and the incredible high-speed network, China really has completely revitalized the international rail sector. It really is an astonishment achievement and we have to give China credit for it, alongside the necessary criticism for its political repression.
