I think you're insulting your own intelligence with a statement like that.
The foreign news source you showed quoted Chinese state media. You'll need a better source to sway anyone's opinions that China is humming along like nothing happened. I have no doubt that their lockdowns were effective. When you live in a society where your neighbor will turn you in for leaving your apartment, enforcing a lockdown is easy. It doesn't mean they aren't just as human as the rest of us. When they start to go back to normal they will see cases rise just like the rest of us. You just won't know because the state media controls the information flow.
