The 2008 recession and subsequent weak "recovery" worldwide is what happened. China is mostly an export driven economy. Consumption in both the US and Europe (China's largest trading partners) nosedived following this and has been very slow to increase.

Here is the raw data on US exports to China. Look at the meteoric rise starting from 2001, and then how it has plateaued following the crisis. https://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c5700.html#2008
