At the height of China's command over the Bitcoin market a couple or more years ago the number of full nodes there regularly fell below 100.
I've just had a look and the number of full nodes has gone up hugely in the last few months to over 2000 now, in fact it's added over 1000 in the last month alone.

Chinese just playing around the stocks and policy. They clearly realize how to use news and stocks to benefit and how to deal with the goverment restrictions. Because now they are getting ready for the new big project as Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba has launched a surprise cryptocurrency mining platform, unconfirmed sources surfacing.
CnLedger, a Twitter-based local crypto news information provider, relayed the report from Chinese Internet service qq.com, stating Alibabas P2P Nodes platform had launched after a registration in October 2017.
According to the available material from cnLedger, Alibaba may incorporate P2P Nodes in its e-commerce platform in future:https://twitter.com/cnLedger?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcointelegraph.com%2Fnews%2Fchinas-alibaba-launches-crypto-mining-platform-despite-restrictions-say-local-sources
In a further development, fellow Chinese conglomerate Tencent has registered a Blockchain-related trademark for an entity referred to variously as Ether Lock and Ethernet Lock.
So, let's trust the facts, not just words
