That's not a map of their HSR network, that's a map of their rail network.

Openrailwaymap plots tracks by max speed, and you can see the map of China here: https://openrailwaymap.org/?style=maxspeed&lat=30.9587685707... --the tracks that are red-to-purple are the ones that are high speed.

I'm having a hard time reading that map - but this one also goes by speed and shows the extent of the HSR lines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_rail_in_China#/medi...
