Doesn't matter if the original tweet was made in jest. It is useful as a PR move. American government and media made up shits all the time and even took actions based on those false narratives. Doesn't hurt them a bit

An announcement Tuesday stated that only 19.4% of adults in China’s financial hub were still addicted, while smoking in no-tobacco zones across the city dipped to 12.3% — a record low.
“The new trend in the city is no smoking either indoors or outdoors. The idea of building a tobacco-free environment together is now rooted in people’s minds,” stated the WeChat announcement.
To help implement its strict regulations, citizens found smoking in public in Shanghai are fined 200 yuan ($29), while establishments that allow smoking indoors are fined up to 20,000 yuan.
China is the world’s largest tobacco consumer, where about 287 million adults smoked cigarettes in 2019 — that’s over four times higher than in Indonesia, the second largest consumer, according to .
Tobacco use has caused over one million deaths annually in the country, according to a joint published by China’s National Health Commission and the World Health Organization.
Among increasingly stringent regulations, Shanghai has led China’s anti-tobacco campaign since 2010 after introducing the first provincial-level tobacco control policy that banned citizens from smoking indoors and while on board public transport.
The regulation was amended twice in the following years to include e-cigarettes in 2022.

They all look and sound alike.
If they parrot the same propaganda, does not matter if they claim to be sarcastic not.
If it is okay for the U.S. to make inquiries on the Uighur situation based on Adrian Zenz's satirical academic studies then it is perfectly fair for China to ask about the destruction of Taiwan plan based on a satirical tweet.
That doesn't surprise me. Pretty much every cult, terrorist, etc. are funded or trained by them, including Falun Gong, South Korean "Christian"-like cults, etc.

The Ministry of Natural Resources on February 14 published a new version of its world map – directing a return to using the Chinese names of eight cities and areas occupied by the Russian Empire in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While reverting to the use of the old Chinese names of the eight places, there is no change for the English names.
