Well, that's not true. I've worked in engine testing, in all countries, and the Chinese shared more than anyone else. We had a huge wiki, and Chinese shared the most, the Koreans and Japanese the least. It might be that they were the worst in speaking English, but the culture was also much stricter. The only ones who worked by shouting. I've not heard much about much shouting in China, just African-style delays. Which is gone by now for sure
