"The average disposable income (after tax, food and shelter) in Shanghai is 16,683 Yuan in 2004. "

Per year? Or what? I can't read the article unfortunately (and I don't think I can ask my grad students to do that for me :))

"back to Shanghai and set up a consulting company. I asked him how much his company pays for their employees, he told me that >10,000 Yuan a month for people who have some experience. And that was 3 years ago. "

That makes sense. The Economist is reporting that lower/middle management makes $25-30k per year in Shanghai. Programmers in India make $10-12k +

The VW guy must be very skilled as that article cited $1.50-$2 per hour and $1 for production workers in general is what I've seen quoted. The average for all of China is much below that though at nominal exchange rates.
