Will this be serious as in a recession coming for China?

Japan stimulus could help cushion some of China's impending recession but due to the recent tensions a lot of bilateral trade is not happening.

Doesn't sound very good macroeconomically at the moment to be invested in anything at all...

Wouldn’t Australian RE look even more attractive to the Chinese with declining Chinese RE markets?

what surprises me is that people that should know better keep expecting massive exponential growth rates. the growth is stunning regardless.

a drop from 9% to 6% growth is still stellar national numbers, 30% fall or not.

there's more to investing than exponential growth - if you don't understand that, then you probably shouldn't be commenting.
