The IMF is not known for it's optimism. It is an unbiased source of economic assessments.

China’s economy is projected to grow by 5 percent in 2024 and 4.5 percent in 2025. These reflect upward revisions of 0.4 percentage points for both years compared to the April WEO projections, driven by strong Q1 GDP data and recent policy measures. Core inflation is expected to rise but stay low as output remaining below potential.
