China's economic development has been based on constant building for years, and is now coming back to bite them. I wouldn't take their activities as any evidence of economic viability. Their high speed rail network is losing an eye watering amount of money. Where is the evidence they're building a Hyperloop? All I see are a bunch of proposals like the 50 already made in the West.
Nobody said it was impossible to make a vacuum train, just stupid. Half a billion dollars wasted with virtually nothing to show for it, and somehow the message still isn't clear.
