  • Welcome to old Nanjing! 😍 From the vegetable market to a local park to a popular walking street to some random alleys, we crammed as much as we could into one afternoon 🏮 And instead of just a walk or a bike ride, we spiced it up today with traditional Chinese clothes called "Hanfu"🎋Sure enough, these outfits made a great conversation starter out on the streets and we had many encounters with friendly strangers - come along with us and meet them too! 🌞

    You are the perfect example of what Bruce Lee meant when he said "When you put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle. Be like water my friend". You are exploring China not as a foreigner but it seems like you have become chinese so the way you experience China is from within and not as an outsider and so your experience of China is much deeper and your viewpoint you share with us here on RUclips is much more valuable. I love it. And even the local people like the ones there in the vegetable market are astonished and almost it seems to me envious of your ability to integrate in a foreign culture. You are awesome!

    Videos after videos, I am more and more amazed by the quality of your content...
    As a French individual living in the UK, I relate to your experience as an expatriate but you pushed it to a whole over level my dear (how is it possible to master to that level such a different language haha?).
    My interest for China rose up after reading China: a new History by John King Fairbank as well as the Japanese Invasion of Korea 1592 - 1598 by Stephen Turnbull - and I love the fact that every single one of your videos are contributing to the education of your public when it comes to History, traditions and culture(s)! (whether when you focus on specific minorities such as the oroqens or the tibetans or when you go around in those different regions with amazing architectures, landscapes, food specialities : Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Anhui etc.).
    Your intellectual curiosity and the natural manner in which you engage with all those different people is very refreshing to watch. Any interactions is source of teaching about different aspects of modern and ancient China culture and habits, how and why China is changing/has changed and most of the anecdots are very interesting/entertaining to listen to.
    Format is also great : images, video editing, lenght, music backgrounds - you are killing it on every aspects!
    Last but not least, that very distinguished "Hanfu" suits you perfectly and brings out the blue of your eyes - Wei is without any doubt a lucky man... Wish you a lot of success in your personal, professional and RUclips life!

    The Simplified vs Traditional gives an interesting metaphor of the evolution of China, Simplified provides efficiency and faster communication (hence growth), but in doing so, sacrificed deeper meaning and the human side of culture/life. And language itself is the basis of how it influences the culture, the philosophy. The old generation knows this well.

Reminds me of the things i used to do there as an expat. This + your environmental education video really shows what modern Chinese people of all ages are like.

      @@murphytalk Back in 2015 and 2016 even though their content was a bit skewed, it was fairly educational on what life might be like there as an expat.
      Except they'd always throw their tinge, being the "original china vloggers" or this kinda stamp of "real china" there.
      I lived in Huizhou in 2016 and Matt (laowhy86) filmed my roommate and made some slanderous comments about him being an expat who is uncultured and just here to party get drunk and sleep with women whilst knowing none of the language.
      Little did he know that my friend passed HSK5 that year with flying colours and was kinda my first motivator in getting better at the language.
      After that little stunt Matt got shunned by most of the expat community in the bars and some bars outright barred him. Even expats thought he was a scummy piece of work back then.
      Guess the moral of that though is: don't hang out with other foreigners all the time when living in China! When i moved up to Shandong afterwards i mostly interacted with Chinese people and my life was so much better for it.

      @DSki Dski Your point? Good samaritan laws were changed due to this incident. Almost like the govt does stuff! What a surprise! Good to see the reaction of Chinese people and it's govt regarding that incident ended up in people being more aware of good samaritan laws and thinking better of one another.
      Meanwhile in the 470th mass shooting in the USA this year, still no change in it's policy regarding firearms and people's perception of firearms. Do you wanna change things after one bad incident and one death, or do it after the 482nd death in a year?

      Doesn't take an idiot to see the constant fearmongering and vitirol that is built up against Chinese people due to smear campaigns by Western media in recent years, which negatively affects ALL east-asian people in the west.
      Do my Chinese friends deserve to be assaulted or racially abused in my own country (UK) due to this rhetoric? Or should we strive to be better people globally?

    I agree with the doctor. Traditional Chinese is much more meaningful and beautiful. Now that most Chinese can read and write. It’s time to go back to traditional Chinese

    You look so beautiful wearing traditional Hanfu and hopefully this costume will be China national costume where the Japanese have their Kimono and the Korean have their Hanbok and China should have Hanfu...

    Nanjing is underrated! I've been there quite a few times, travelling from Shanghai. One of my favourite Chinese cities.
    I think it's more on par with Hangzhou than Suzhou is and in a parallel universe where the KMT won the war, Nanjing would be the capital of the Republic of China!

      @@smithmartin7550 There are many things to admire in both US and China. Win-win cooperation can benefit both while interfering in the internal affairs of each other brings no good to anyone. Here's a fact that more than 1.4 billion Chinese people know in their hearts: the centuries of humiliation are over. There is a saying among Chinese people: ''We treat our friends with good wine, but for our enemies we got shotguns.'' 1.4 billion people have got DF-21 and a few other things to greet the uninvited invaders who dare to trample on the sovereignty of the great Chinese nation.

    You don't know how lucky you are to have met that man. His knowledge is priceless seriously. Don't underestimate his knowledge. I wish I could get in contact with him and find more people like him. He's a walking encyclopedia and a good teacher.
    Here is a weird and probably long shot idea that won't happen. If your hopefully still in contact with him, pitch the idea of him posting his knowledge online. RUclips would be great. He could make a channel and post the info he has about China immediately after world war 2, and how it was shaped back then by the West.

    5:29 It can be quite confusing as Bai Lu Zhou (Shoal of Egrets) of Li Bai's time (8th century AD) is not where the current park is. Note that the Yangtze flowed right by today's city wall 1300 years ago, that anything _west_ of the wall (plus the wall itself) didn't exist, except the shoal we are talking about. It was a moderately sized island located at today's Jianye district. The park (on the _east_ side of the city) was originally the private garden of a Ming era (14th century AD) duke, named after the fabled shoal only in the 1920s when it was transformed into a park and opened to the public.

      No, the Emperor did not faint, it marked the decline of the Song Dynasty. The saying of a face that launch a thousand ships, this dance was the dance that signalled the decline of the Song Dynasty. I have on good authority from Su Ma Chian, trust me.
