Yes, literally, that is true! Historically Chinese like to OWN. Owning means stability, security and independence. Having properties and land means foundation for Chinese style family, success and happiness.
From the 90’s of last century, Chinese started to make money in any way they could. The most ironically timing came in 2008, after the financial crisis in the US, Chinese instantly felt rich enough to buy American properties and it was chance to dig from the depth. Although it took a few years for Chinese to take massive action, till finally almost every middle class in the big city could afford American houses.
Chinese real estate developer are also buying land, build hotels and residence for Chinese citizens to live or purchase overseas, in Australia, Germany, Spain, UK and the US etc…… Chinese are buying the world like crazy and they have CASH.
