I suspect that's an artifact of what counts as "corporate" debt in china. LGFVs[1] count as corporate debt, but are more accurately classified as government[1]. If you factor that out and reallocate that to government debt, and consider that the US has higher government debt as % of GDP than china, the two countries don't look too far off.
