I don't understand why it's so weird for China to build a version of Paris. After all, the U.S. has a version of Paris in Las Vegas with its own Eiffel Tower. They also have a version of Venice, an Egyptian pyramid, and a copy of New York City. California also has a Venice, with canals. And how many U.S. cities were copied from or named for European cities and villages by immigrants? A lot. I know one of the states I grew up in, Illinois, has both a Paris and a Cairo.
