  1. There are so many dialects in China, that sometimes, within a specific area there are dialects within dialects.

  2. 看来他们不懂英文语法，还是故意翻译错。

  3. But the Western media would have you believe that the government somehow controls all 1.4 billion Chinese people's thoughts, when in truth, every Chinese each have their own personal beliefs that's all.

  5. Confucius envisioned a golden age over a two millennia ago: "And then men would care for all elders as if they were their own parents, love all children as if they were their own children. The aged would grow old and die in security; the youthful would have opportunities to contribute and prosper; and children would grow up under the guidance and protection of all. Widows, orphans, the disabled, the diseased - everyone will be cared for and loved."

  6. +LuvMyLilBabe China has been peaceful for 30 years and not at war with any country since our last major war in 1979. But USA has been waging wars in 21s century, like Iraq War, Afghan War, Libyan War, and then cutting off those countries' heads (Muammar Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, etc) and then installing their own US puppet governments in place. Now President Trump is eyeing Syria and the Assad Regime is next on the list.

  7. Imagine the phrase "Under President Trump's leadership" being changed to "Under President Trump's rule" for example.

  8. According to Global Innovation Index 2017, China is among the Top 25 most innovative countries in the world, and China is the only middle-income country on the Top 25 list.

  9. Chinese people make products like smartphones, computers, appliances, electronics, clothing, sneakers, etc cheaply so inflation in other countries is kept to minimum, and the cost of living is lower than it should be. Think of the millions of dollars people in other countries have saved on living expenses over the years, thanks to affordable Chinese goods. Money saved that can then be spent on other things like cars, houses, getting married or school fees, college fees, doctors fees, etc.

  10. Casper Cito If you watch Chinese media like CGTV and New China TV, they talk about China's success and about promoting better economic relations with the West, and how China's and Western governments can coexist peacefully. But Western media like CNN, BBC and Fox News constantly talk about possible war scenario with China and starting trade wars with China. So which country media is brainwashing its own people here?
    26
  11. China is the world most populous country, and our resources are stretched to the limit in supporting our huge population, so there isn't much room to take in refugees.

  13. Gloria Hahn When is Facebook, Twitter and YouTube illegal in China? Nobody comes to arrest you if you log on to these websites while in China.
    18
  14. ABo MALA You think population size is the only factor here? If so, then the world's 2nd most populous country, India, should be ranked 1st or 2nd, instead of 60th, don't you agree?
    17
  15. +ArchesBro South Korea had that one dictator, Park Chung Hee, but under his brutal leadership, South Korea progressed rapidly, and has been ranked by the public as the greatest South Korean president, for sustaining the Miracle on the Han River, which reshaped and modernized South Korea. Taiwan was ruled 50 years by authoritarian, Imperial Japan and later by authoritarian single-party Kuomintang, for almost its entire lifetime, and had been under martial law for more than 38 years, which was qualified as "the longest imposition of martial law by a regime anywhere in the world" at that time. But under KMT leadership, Taiwan flourished, until another party DPP took over KMT in 2016 (2 years ago) and that was when Taiwan economy enter a slump. Even the last economic tiger, Singapore, was ruled its entire life by authoritarian single party PAP for over 50 years, and look at where Singapore is today. Together, these four countries are known as the Four Asian Tigers for their economic growth under such authoritarian governments.

  16. Why is it that that Western media overlook the good things that Mao Zedong did, and just concentrate on the bad? Shouldn't history be about being neutral and observing both the good and bad things people did? Despite Mao's failed policies, he unified China under communism in 1949, even when the previous KMT administration (1912 - 1945) failed to unify China. During KMT administration of China, Tibet broke free of China and much of China was ruled by warlords instead. But why Westerners just ignore all the positives and just focus on the bad things that Mao did?
    13
  17. M.J.D. But what the man said in the interview was 在习主席的带领下 (with President Xi's guidance or leadership) not "Under President Xi's rule", so Asian Boss either translated it improperly, which change the man's meaning altogether

  18. Initially, Japanese automakers copied from the Western companies as well. The 1917 Mitsubishi Model A was based on the Fiat A3-3 design. In the 1930s, Nissan Motors' cars were based on the Austin 7 and Graham-Paige designs, while the Toyota AA model was based on the Chrysler Airflow. Ohta built cars in the 1930s based on Ford models, while Chiyoda built a car resembling a 1935 Pontiac, and Sumida built a car similar to a LaSalle.

  19. Britain was a colonial superpower in 1800s, but was eventually overtaken by USA in 1900s, but before that, China had been a superpower for 1800 years and only in the last 200 years was China not a superpower, at least according to Angus Maddison's research, who published the GDP of countries from 1 to 2000 AD.
    12
  20. forbidmyname iPhone is currently made by Chinese worker's wages, not American worker's wages, and people buy it mostly because it is a status symbol. But once the social status attached to owning an iPhone evaporates, then nobody would want the product anymore.
    11
  21. I think what he is implying by "USA Made products come with a social status" is that once the social status attached to owning an iPhone evaporates, then nobody would want the product anymore.
    11
  22. + EggMine "But I seriously don't think China will ever reach the level of influence the U.S. has today ... Unless China starts demonstrating compassion for others at that level..." China today is at peace and not at war with any country, since our last major war in 1979. Instead, China is focusing on infrastructure projects in less developed countries like Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Maldives, and also African countries like Kenya, Nigeria, Angola, etc. But the USA is involved in wars even in 21st century, such as Afghan War, Iraq War, Libya War, etc, and is cutting off those country's heads (Muammar Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, etc) and then installing their own US puppets in place. Now President Trump is bombing Syria, and the Assad Regime is next on the list. So you want China to exhibit "compassion for others" like what USA is doing to the Middle East?
    11
  23. Why do you people claim China has not come up with an entirely new invention or technology since some 2000 years? Paper, compass and gunpowder are some of the most recognisable Chinese inventions in the last 2000 years.
    11
  24. But most Westerners see "communism" as dirty word, and refuse to even consider its possibilities. Maybe right now, communism doesn't work, because people are assumed to be greedy, selfish, etc. But maybe far ahead in future, say 1000 years, maybe human attitude improved to the point where like Confucius said, that if you see widow, orphan, disabled, etc, on the streets, humans will still care for them like one of our own.

  25. forbidmyname Since when is Facebook, Google and YouTube banned in China? Nobody comes to arrest you if you are using Facebook, YouTube or Google in China.
    10
  26. forbidmyname Nobody says China has to think in terms of expanding to other countries. China has the world's largest internet market, by number of internet users, and China is world's largest by vehicle production. That's why foreign companies constantly want a share of China's markets all the time. China's economy is export based, and although countries have threatened to impose taxes on Chinese goods (and even boycott Chinese goods altogether) the demand for Chinese goods remains high, and the other country's governments can't afford to risk a backlash by cutting off people's access to Chinese goods entirely. The world economy today is so interconnected, such that if China suffers a recession, then the rest of the world will be affected because of their dependence on Chinese goods.

  27. +Nitin Rawat The "Made in Japan" label used to have a poor reputation too in the past, but over the years, their quality has built to the point today. Even India's Narendra Modi is planning for a "Made in India" label for his country one day. Also, there are many Chinese ethnic enclaves located near major cities all over the world, where people can enjoy Chinese culture and cuisine. These Chinese enclaves are commonly known as "Chinatowns"

  28. Japanese automakers also copied Western car designs initially. The 1917 Mitsubishi Model A was based on the Fiat A3-3 design. In the 1930s, Nissan Motors' cars were based on the Austin 7 and Graham-Paige designs, while the Toyota AA model was based on the Chrysler Airflow. Ohta built cars in the 1930s based on Ford models, while Chiyoda built a car resembling a 1935 Pontiac, and Sumida built a car similar to a LaSalle.

  32. forbidmyname If Chinese workers can do the job at dirt cheap wages, then are American workers themselves willing to work for the same low wages as Chinese workers? If not, then the prices of American goods are going to increase, because of higher American salaries.
    7
  33. forbidmyname But the price of the iPhone is still largely determined by the wages of workers manufacturing the phone. If Chinese workers wages goes up, then the cost of the iPhone will go up. You call it low skills, but it factors greatly into the overall cost of the product isn't it? And just because many Chinese people are working in the manufacturing sector, doesn't mean that China will forever be stuck there. Already there are phones being designed by Chinese brands, such as Xiaomi and Huawei, that are beginning to expand into markets overseas.

  34. Under Saudi Arabian laws, women aren't even allowed to drive, yet USA is very good friends with Saudi Arabia?

  35. planetzito That still doesn't change the fact Japanese and Korean automakers did copy from Western car companies. And it was adlerzwei who first brought up Japan and South Korea into this discussion.

  36. USA is actually the most protectionist country in the world, with over 800 of such protectionist measures, compared to China's 200-300 of such measures, at least since 2008.
    7
  37. Gloria Hahn What makes you think that you know how the social credit system works? China is a meritocracy and people are rewarded based on their performance. In the West there are people jobless people who are living on government welfare and collecting food stamps, instead of finding a job, while the people who actually working pay taxes to support such a system. China's social credit system can hopefully help to remove this problem by encouraging positive behaviour and discouraging unproductive behaviour.

  38. +BH At least I provide basis for an argument, whereas you just claim it sucks? Why don't you come up with an argument of your own then?

  39. China is doing our part in the space race, and we are the 3rd country in the world (besides USA and Russia) to independently send people to space and the 1st Asian country to do so. In 2008, during Shenzhou-7 mission, China became the 3rd country in the world to conduct "spacewalk" where the Chinese astronaut left the spacecraft interior and venture out into the vacuum of space.

  40. Koreans always claim nobody likes China, but then China is the 4th most visited country in the world, after France, USA and Spain, and the most visited Asian country (surpassing Japan and South Korea). So why claim nobody likes China?
    5
  41. +forbidmyname How can you say for sure that nobody in the west wants to work or study in China? Obviously not everyone in USA can afford to go to Harvard or other top American universities, so some students may choose to study abroad in countries like China, which ranks 3rd overall among countries.
    5
  42. If you watch Chinese media like CGTN or New China TV, they talk about promoting better economic cooperation with the West, and how China's government and Western government can both coexist. But Western media like Fox News, CNN, all paint China as the "enemy" and talk about possible war scenario with China, or starting trade war with China.

  43. China is currently not at war with any country, since our last major war in 1979. But USA is involved in wars even in 21st century, such as Iraq War, Afghan War, Libyan War, etc, and is cutting off those country's heads (Muammar Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, etc) and installing their own US puppet governments in place. Now President Trump is targeting Syria, and the Assad Regime is next on the US list of governments to topple.

  46. +Micah August China is slowly progressing towards becoming more innovative over time. According to Global Innovation Index rankings, China was ranked 22nd most innovative country in 2017. Before that, China was 25th in 2016, and 29th in 2015, so it is clear China is progressing in the innovation index ranking. What will China's 2018 ranking be? And what will China's 2020 ranking be?

  49. +Collective Toothbrush Agreed. Although the CCP isn't perfect, it's done a great job governing a country of 1.4 billion people. Most Westerners just want to overthrow the government, but don't think about where to go from there. They think of Step 1 (overthrow CCP) but they don't think of Step 2 (who's going to replace it?)

  52. China has 5000 years of history and is among the world's oldest 'continuous' civilization still alive today, whereas other great ancient civilizations like Mesopotamia, Rome and Egypt have since faded to history. Chinese people been wearing luxurious silk clothing since 4th millennium BCE, while most of the world were wearing loincloths and "bedsheets" called togas.

  65. Chinese workers manufacture cheap goods like smartphones, computers, appliances, electronics, sneakers, clothing, etc, so that the cost of living in other countries is kept lower than it should be. Think of the millions of dollars people in other countries have saved on living expenses over the years thanks to affordable Chinese goods. Money saved that can then be spent on finer things like cars, houses, getting married or on things like school fees, college tuition, doctor's bills.

  66. China's automotive industry is already the world's largest by number of cars being produced, surpassing Japan and Korea long ago. Even in other transportation fields, such as high-speed railway, China has the world's largest high speed railway network, surpassing Japan's Shinkansen in terms of track length, even when China was initially behind Japan in the past.

  67. wisdomleader2017 Likewise, has China ever claimed any Western technology and inventions to be China's own, without giving credits? When did China ever claimed to have invented high speed rail technology?
    4
  68. wisdomleader2017 Could you provide a link for your claim that China's national media disseminates information claiming credit for Western inventions? I have shown historically that people have improved upon the designs of other people's original inventions and that's how society has progressed as a whole. It's your choice if you don't believe me, but why do you impose expectations on to me for your beliefs?

  69. wisdomleader2017 You asked me earlier for a link, and I provided mine, so can't I ask you for a link to support your claim as well? Who says I'm asking it for an predominantly English speaking audience of this channel/video to verify it? As for fairness and trade, I already shown that USA is the world's most protectionist country so how is fairness of trade important here?

If you like meat, there is Peking Duck. If you want something light, there is Dim Sum. If you like rice, there is Fried Rice. If you like noodles, there is Chow Mein. If you like spicy food, there is Mapo Tofu. If you're in a rush and want something portable and filling, there is Pork Buns. If you like seafood, then Chinese people love seafood too. China has such a rich culture of food, so there is bound to be something to suit everyone's tastes out there.

  76. Victor Ye Becoming powerful is not merely just about inventing new technology all the time. Who can be expected to just come up with a new invention on the spot? But China is surpassing USA in various scientific fields. Take supercomputers for example, China is home to world's fastest supercomputer, Sunway TaihuLight 神威·太湖之光 as well as the world's 2nd fastest, Tianhe-2 天河-2. During a recent 2017 Top 500 supercomputer survey, China even beat USA with 202 out of 500 of the world's fastest supercomputers, compared to USA's 144 out of 500.

  77. The Westerners have attacked our Asian self-esteem and mocked our culture as backward and inferior to theirs, but this preconception exists solely within our minds that's all. Statistics show that Asians are among the world's most diligent and intelligent peoples, with cultures spanning thousands of years. Why should we feel inferior to Westerners then? We need to shrug off this preconception and start seeing ourselves as equal to Westerners and capable of accomplishing equally impressive feat as the West. China is the 3rd country in the world to independently send people to space, after USA and USSR, and the 1st Asian nation to do so. China is also the 3rd country to have launched spacestations of our own with Tiangong-1 in 2011 and Tiangong-2 in 2016, joining the ranks of US's Skylab and Russia's Mir on the list of spacestations.

Why are you referring to this as a "they did it too" type of response, when adlerzwei brought it up first?

  82. The American Dream is that every poor immigrant to America can hopefully strike it rich one day, and move up the social ladder to a higher rung. That's why USA seem to accept every immigrant, regardless of their background. The Chinese Dream is the eventual rejuvenation of our nation, to work together collectively for the nation's progress. For that, China needs human capital, such as scientists, researchers, entrepreneurs, or anyone useful to China. That's why China has strict immigration laws, only admitting in people who can contribute to society.

  83. China's automotive companies are in China, which is the world's largest automotive market (much larger than US and Canada combined) so doesn't that mean Chinese automakers see more customers than Hyundai? Chinese electric vehicle companies like BYD, is also becoming more globally recognized. In 2015, BYD Auto was the best selling global electric vehicle brand, ahead of Luxgen. For a second year running, BYD was the world's top selling plug-in electric car manufacturer with over 100,000 units delivered in 2016. In October 2016, BYD Auto became the all-time second largest global plug-in car manufacturer ahead of Luxgen.

  84. wisdomleader2017 Recently in April 2018, President Xi Jinping promised to reduce tariffs on automobiles imported into China and significantly broaden market access for foreign companies. But like I said, China is world's largest automotive industry, so why do Chinese automakers see the need to expand to other markets? Other markets are going to be smaller than China's and there will be bound to be significant barriers to entry. I mean, you are the one claiming China's automotive industry will never surpass Japan, but when I brought up how China's hi-speed railway industry surpassed Japan, you just dismissed it, even though China was initially behind Japan in hi-speed railway development. So what makes you so certain China's automakers will never surpass Japan in the future?

  85. wisdomleader2017 When WTO was founded in 1995, China aimed to be included as a WTO founding member (which would validate it as a world economic power) but this attempt was thwarted because USA and its allies requested that China first reform various policies. The US imposed additional conditions on China and when China joined the WTO, we agreed to considerably harsher conditions than other developing countries at that time. So why you think China did not put such promises into practice? Isn't China's economy today much more open than it was prior to joining WTO? Even now, President Trump just unilaterally slap sanctions on steel and aluminum, all without going through the proper WTO channels, so isn't USA the one not upholding WTO promises here? I mentioned high speed railway, because it is an area in which China has successfully surpassed Japan. You are the one claiming China's automotive industry will never surpass Japan, then where is your proof? China already surpassed Japan in other fields like hi-speed railway, so what makes you think China's automotive industry will never surpass Japan?
    3
  86. wisdomleader2017 China's economy today is much more open than it was prior to 1970s, when China was still following communist market system, before Deng Xiaoping introduced economic reforms. I mean, USA and its allies are constantly talking about how protectionist China's economy is, but in truth since 2013, the USA is the world's most protectionist country with over 800 of such protectionist measures, compared to China's 200-300 of such protectionist measures. What gives USA the right to impose its own restrictions on China's joining the WTO as a founding member, when USA itself follows protectionism to an extreme? When did I ever claim that China's automotive industry will surpass Japan without such technology transfer? I never mentioned anything about "technology transfer" so why should I provide proof of China's automotive industry will surpass Japan without technology transfer? I also shown that Chinese companies like BYD Auto was the best selling global electric vehicle brand in 2015, so that is one area in which China's automotive industry has seemingly surpassed Japan.

  87. +wisdomleader2017 According to Global Trade Alert, USA is the world's most protectionist country with over 800 of such protectionist measures, compared to China's 200-300 of such protectionist measures. Source: Wikipedia: Protectionism Its your own personal opinion if you think that originality matters. But if other designs can greatly improve on the original design, then why is it do you think that only originality matters? I clearly mentioned that BYD Auto was the best selling global electric vehicle brand in 2015. Still the electric car industry is one area in which China's automotive industry is surpassing Japan's. In 2017, China sold more light duty plug in electric vehicle than Japan, at 1,245.9 units compared to Japan's 207.2 units, in terms of cumulative sales.

  88. wisdomleader2017 In the past, Westerners have also made use of Chinese inventions like paper, compass and especially gunpowder, but do Chinese people complain about Westerners using our technology? In addition to gunpowder, ancient Chinese invented handcannons, handgrenades, fragmentation bombs, landmines, naval mines, exploding cannonballs, rocket launchers, etc, but if Westerners took those designs and improved on them, then why does originality still matters? It's your own opinion that originality matters of course, but in real life, if other designs can greatly improve on the original design then originality itself does not matter, as history has shown. People have been copying and improving on other people's original designs for much of history and that is how society progresses as a whole.

  89. NewYorkCityViews China has world's largest population, so with such a large student population, competition for top schools and higher education is fierce and intense in China. Students that don't pass local university entrance examinations (Gaokao 高考) here may choose to study abroad in other countries as international students. Even if they graduate here in China, they may not be able to get a job here, so they may work overseas as foreign workers in your countries. Also, there are some wealthy Chinese who get filthy rich in China through corruption, and escape to other countries to buy up property, so the money can't be trace back to them, during the anti-corruption crackdown. There are many more reasons why Chinese go overseas to cover here.

  90. 很多外国人以为清朝就是中国，没读过中国的历史。

  91. forbidmyname Then how do you explain the fact that China is the most popular country in Asia for international students as of 2013, surpassing even Japan and South Korea in number of international students? China has a large student population and competition for top schools and higher education in China is fierce and intense, and many Chinese students struggle to pass the local entrance exams (Gaokao 高考) That's why some Chinese students choose to study abroad in other countries instead.

  92. 老实说 翻墙之后，就觉得很多美国人对中国有偏见，已经被美媒洗脑了。

  93. 한국어로변역하는인간 I was elaborating on R wi's post on talking about human rights to the Arabic countries.

  94. Chinese people make cheap product like smartphones, computers, electronics, appliances, clothing, sneakers, etc, so that inflation in other countries is kept to a minimum and the cost of living is lower than it should be. Think of the millions of dollars people in other countries have saved over the years thanks to affordable Chinese goods. Money saved that can then be spent on things like cars, housing, getting married, or paying school fees, college tuition, doctor's fees, etc.

  95. Chinese products are cheaper because of lower wages, but are Americans themselves willing to work for same low wage as Chinese workers? If not, then the prices of Americans goods are going to be more expensive, due to their higher salaries.

  96. Anderson 你们台湾政府不是说过你们会收回大陸吗？ 已经过了几十年了，但为什么还没动手呢？

  97. Nobody thought Donald Trump would even get a single term as US President, but look where he is today? Prior to Trump's election, Obama even said: "At least I will go down as President" and now he has to eat his own words.

  98. The American Dream is about how poor immigrants to America can hopefully strike it rich one day, and move up the social ladder to a higher rung. That's why they allow virtually any immigrant into the country. The Chinese Dream is the eventual rejuvenation of our nation, and for that, China needs what's called "human capital", such as scientists, researchers, businessmen, entrepreneurs, and people who actually contribute back to China. That's why our immigration laws tend to be stricter.

  100. Chinese workers make products like smartphones, computers, electronics, appliances, clothing, sneakers, etc, cheaply so that the cost of living is lower than it should be. Think of the millions of dollars people in other countries have saved over the years on living expenses, thanks to affordable Chinese goods. Money saved that can then be spent on things like cars, housing, getting married, or paying school fees, college tuition, doctor's fees, etc.

  101. China is 1st country in the world to successfully mount an electromagnetic railgun onto a mobile platform, like a navy vessel, and to have successfully test-fired it out at sea. Even the USA is unable to get its experimental railgun out of its land testing facility and onto actual sea trials.

  102. Taka Masuda Japanese forces committed wartime atrocities during WW2 such as Rape of Nanjing, Unit 731 and "comfort" women. During Rape of Nanjing, Japanese solders butchered unarmed Chinese men for sport and many Chinese women were gang raped. Their bodies were left naked and mutilated, with their private parts bayonetted or having sharp sticks of bamboo shoved in. Young children and the elderly weren't spared, and Japanese soldiers cut open young children's bodies to rape them. Pregnant women had their swollen bellies bayoneted after being raped, and the unborn fetus ripped open from their wombs.

  103. About culture, look at Chinese culture today, and modern Chinese people adopt modern Western clothing, technology, buildings, etc. But do Chinese people suddenly feel our culture is losing or being threatened in any way? Cultures change throughout the course of history, and modern China is one example of that. Just like Westerners in the past adopted Chinese inventions, like paper, compass and especially gunpowder.

  104. KarlW Therefore people can't just say using Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, etc is banned and illegal in China. As for Chinese apps, in many ways they have surpassed American apps. For example, using WeChat, people can book appointments, hail a cab, shop online, make purchases, pay for it, have them delivered to your doorstep, etc, all using a single app. But you won't get this level of integration with Western apps like WhatsApp.

  105. +Alan's Saladbar China's 5000 years of history and culture is too expansive to be wiped by any man, any party, or government. Even the 1st emperor of China, Qin Shihuangdi, was against Confucianism, and burned books of Confucius teachings and buried Confucian scholars alive (The latter is allegedly). Even the Mongolians and Manchu people conquered China, and tried to wipe out Chinese culture, but ended up assimilating into Chinese culture. So why you think everything has been undone during the Cultural Revolution?

  106. My arguments are built upon facts and logic, with links to support everything I said, whereas people like wisdomleader2017 just claim that Chinese media says this, without even providing a link, so who are you going to believe here? I have shown USA is the world's most protectionist country as compared to China, that China has the world's largest automotive industry. I have shown that China leads Japan in the electric car industry, that BYD Auto is a global recognized brand in 2015. I did brought up the China's highspeed railway, but it is to show an example of how China's hi-speed rail surpassed Japanese Shinkansen so why can't China eventually surpass Japan in automotive industry? Like I mentioned earlier, Japan initially copied Western car designs in 1930s, but Japan has surpassed some American automotive brands. So why people like wisdomleader2017 continue to believe China's automotive industry will never surpass Japan? Why don't you people focus on attacking my points, instead of attacking me personally like what planetzito is doing? If you suspect me of being 50 cent party member, then can you provide evidence for your claims?

  108. That adds a whole new meaning to being "mind-blown".

  109. China has world's largest internet population (in fact, the 2nd most common language in the Internet is Chinese, after English) and everybody wants access to China's markets, be it automobile, smart phone, etc, so what makes you think the rest of the world will always look down on China?

  110. Peta Gonkyi Chinese people also been using pots and pans since thousands of years ago. The Chinese Wok is the king of all metallic cooking vessels, able to perform wide variety of cooking methods such as stir-frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing, stewing, making soup, smoking and roasting nuts.

  111. forbidmyname It's not only business and many tourists come to visit famous Chinese monuments like Great Wall of China, Forbidden City, Tomb of 1st Chinese emperor, terracotta army and so on. Many also come here to study and China has become the top destination for international students in Asia, beating other Asian countries like Japan and South Korea in terms of number of international students.

  112. "Any countries not willing to participate are threatened with many sanctions." But isn't USA the country that impose sanctions on North Korea, on Iran Nuclear deal, on Russia annexing Crimea, etc? Even now, President Trump just unilaterally slap tariffs on steel and aluminum, without going through the proper World Trade Organization channels, and many countries are lodging complaints to WTO about US's tariffs.

  113. ThatFlyGuy Every few years, Apple will produce a new iPhone model to stay ahead of its competitors, so why is there a need to make older iPhones models last many many years?

  117. +Harry China is exhibiting global influence politically on other countries. For example, even US President Trump recognized that Taiwan is part of China, under the One-China Policy, after a phonecall from Beijing. Even other world leaders today, like Russian President Vladimir Putin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British PM Theresa May, Indian PM Narendra Modi, etc, accept the One China Policy that Taiwan is part of China.

  118. planetzito Which part of my comment did I ever divert the from the topic here? The OP mentioned Japan and Korean copyright laws at one point so why can't I express my views on it without being thought of as 50c party by you? And can you produce evidence of me even mentioning the communist party here at all? Otherwise, why do you think that I am part of 50 cent army here?

  119. SkylineToTheSeaAndMe The USA is the world's most protectionist country. According to Global Trade Ale since 2008 the USA has had over 800 of such protectionist policies, compared to China's 200-300 of such policies. Also, during his presidential campaign Donald Trump promised to label China as currency manipulator, but after President Xi visited him in Maralargo in 2017, he completely change his stance. “They’re not currency manipulators,” President Trump told the The Wall Street Journal during a press conference in the Oval Office in 2017.

  120. +Fang Leo What about you accessing the western media here then? Aren't you doing that now too? I never said Chinese media is unbiased (in fact, every out there media is) I was merely pointing out the differences in news and tone of the Chinese and Western media. And how is the joint military strike in Syria 'misleadingly' portrayed as superpowers bullying the innocent poor country? Aren't the superpowers much stronger than Syria, yet they are choosing to interfere in the country's internal affairs? And I never said anything about this kind of debate or discussion happening on Weibo, but I don't see why the Syrian conflict can't be discussed in Weibo without it being taken down.

  122. Morph Verse But demand for Chinese goods remains high and many people flock to places like Walmart, because of their affordable goods.

  123. Dan If you watch Chinese media like CGTN or New China TV, the topics are usually about how to promote better economic cooperation between the West and about how Chinese government and Western government can coexist peacefully. But Western media like Fox News, CNN, BBC all tend to paint negative view of China, of possible war scenario with China and starting trade wars with China.

  124. Morph Verse President Trump is unilaterally slapping sanctions on steel and aluminium, without even going through the proper WTO channels here. Even other countries like Australia, India and Japan, are also protesting the move.

  125. According to World Bank, China’s poverty rate fell from 88% in 1981 to mere 6.5% in 2012. According to UNESCO, adult literacy rate of China increased from 65.5% in 1982 to a whopping 96.4% in 2015 growing at an average annual rate of 10.39%.

  126. Japan invaded China during WW2 and committed wartime atrocities such as Rape of Nanjing, Unit 731 and "comfort" women, and even South Koreans protest outside Japanese embassy over comfort women issue. During Rape of Nanjing, Japanese solders butchered unarmed Chinese men for sport and many Chinese women were gang raped. Their bodies were left naked and mutilated, with their private parts bayoneted or having sharp sticks of bamboo shoved in. Young children and the elderly weren't spared, and Japanese soldiers cut open young children's bodies to rape them. Pregnant women had their swollen bellies bayoneted after being raped, and the unborn fetus ripped open from their wombs. What did Chinese people do to deserve this? Chinese people only wanted to defend our homes and protect our loved ones, but the Japanese soldiers stole our territories, killed our men and raped our women.
