Well, I can mostly speak to Japan, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was also true in China. The long hours of Japanese work culture are true, but simultaneously, there's a lot of wasted time. Japan evens praises sleeping at the office, when you're clearly getting no work done. This might be limited to white-collar office workers; no idea about people on the factory floor.
