I'm sure anybody buying steel has a solid specification and if the Chinese steel wasn't of good enough quality they wouldn't buy it.
The fact is that China can make, sell and ship steel at a price lower than
our cost of production. If it wasn't China it'd be Korea or some other up and coming Asian country and don't forget that Africa has a huge pool of cheap labour and abundant commodities. It might be them next.
