This statistic ignores many Chinese cities, such as Shenzhen-Dongguan, which has a population of nearly 20 million, but is included in Guangzhou-Foshan or Hong Kong because it is close to these two cities. In fact, there are several mountains, farmlands and wetland reserves between Shenzhen-Dongguan and Guangzhou-Foshan or Hong Kong, so they cannot be counted as one city.
