Your Mandarin is so eloquent, you speak to this man with pure respect, referring the pronoun as Nín instead of ni, all the best to you and I am sure the simple and kind gestures that you have shown on your videos are worth watching, especially for young generation!
I agree. I speak Chinese mysel after studying in Beijing. And you speak fluently and show much respect at the same way, totally embracing the diffences of the culture. Great job of helping that poor old man out! Have a great time travelling in China!
I’m a Vietnam Veteran who was stationed in PhuCat back in 1967-68. While in Vietnam serving, I helped a young shoe shine boy the entire time I was in Vietnam. Bought him a bike and clothes. Vietnam is an amazing and beautiful country. Your caring and loving spirit and your good will towards the locals is admirable! You are an amazing ambassador for the USA!! Keep it up.
the question is, would he do it if he never had thousands of people to show his kind gesture? and knowing he will get more views and subscribers which is more money. it's better to help people in humble ways, privately.
@@JalomMatia actually its not better, as then he would not be able to afford to travel nor would he be able to do things like blessing this man by buying all of his fruit.
@@JalomMatia and if he never shown it publicly you would of never seen this. even if he did this for selfish gains which he most definitely did not. it doesn’t matter as it spreads this acts inspiring people to do the same, whether those people do it privately or not. kind acts are happening regardless because of the outreach this had
Christopher ….this is what makes you attractive ..doing good deeds like this …not because you are bi lingual …giving back to the community like this shows you have a good soul .. now that’s attractive !!! Respect ✊🏻
You are absolutely such a kind heart. It was so emotional to watch what you did for this man. You bet I’m a subscriber and love all your videos ! Let’s spread the love and get Chris more subscribers! We can do it.
It always breaks my heart to see older people working so hard especially in a lot of Asian countries because they're pushed to the back burner when they're deemed "useless to society". I don't know how true that is, but that's what I've been told traveling around and living overseas for awhile.
All depends on the family situation. Traditionally, the children take care of the parents. However, China had the one-child policy for a long time. If the parents out-lived the child, they usually ended up having to make a living anyway they can. With the current lack of marriage and child birth, China will end up with an unsustainable higher elderlies population.
Pretty weird thought process. Seems like throughout countries like China, Vietnam, maybe Laos/Cambodia, not sure. But especially China, Grandparents and even elderly strangers are venerated. A young married couple are expected to take care of parents and if they are still alive, grandparents (glad there’s social security here) as well. A terrible burden on the couple but it’s their duty. Except this poor man is probably in his 60’s-IDK if he said-and he’s considered worthless to society. With nothing to contribute. So he’s out on the street hawking fruit and vegetables. He’ll probably go home to a bowl of noodles with a little meat, maybe, or a bowl of rice. And lay down on a mat on the cold hard floor to try and sleep for a bit until he has to get up in the morning to start over again. Apparently he has no family to take him in. Something is wrong with thais picture!!
He has benefits and medical insurance at home and he can get some help from government as well. The government also provides free land for them to farm and build their houses. That’s why ccp can rule. His living standard may be low but don’t believe him.
Same here hope more sub so he can do more good deeds. I’m stoked he isn’t greedy and shares not only his $$ and Experience he is giving us Americans a name as most of s are.
You are going to have to get used to it, because there is more of it coming. Governments are hoovering up money (expanding inflating debt) to pay for wars and other forms of corruption.
I was homeless for 2 1/2 years in the US. While working, too, because the cost of living is so high. “Americans” were very cruel to me. There were very few exceptions. Government assistance is the biggest fu*king joke. I lived it. I assume you had a comfortable life. @ms.cristinaleon
Always love your videos, so thoughtful to help that elderly man. I hope that any extra money that you gave went towards something he truly needed. Thank you for sharing 😊
That was sweet. I also liked those guys who wanted to give you some money because you spent so much doing a good thing. I forget how many good people I met in China.
Man, what you are doing is great and you have me as your new member subscriber. It goes to shown that Asian culture of hard work and dedication to help put foods on the table for his family. Dude is 60 yrs old if I heard correctly when you asked him and it's midnight and he's still out there with determinations
Kudos to you Chris. Your Mandarin is right on point, you have soft & warm heart. Just remember "what goes around comes around". Thank you for helping another human being. Buddha blesses you with good health and happiness,, good nite from USA.
Chris, you are such a😮kindhearted person. I think wherever you go, you spread love and happiness. Keep on doing what you do. Thanks for sharing. See dung love from New Mexico.
Chris, (LOVE FROM PAKISTAN), I am following you from your Pakistan days, and you really are a kind soul and very different from other tourist to learn the language of area first and get to the people on personal level and bargain for higher prices or buy something you don't even need. Keep it going you have a long way to go and flourish due to your authenticity.
Your compassion makes the world 🌎 a better place to live. Giving is good for your soul. Soul is pure with no judgments. Sending my blessings to you with good health, happiness, peace and prosperity.
Tqvm for your kindness. It doesn't matter if he overcharged you because you were prepared to help him anyway. If the fruit is mangosteen, then it is definitely more expensive than local fruit. Wishing you the best.
Thankyou, thankyou. I lived in Thailand as a kid and my parents taught me by example to treat every person with respect and kindness. The ripple effect for humanity And for the U.S. and the safety of our troops (by decreasing the chances of war) is immeasurable. Kindness always matters. 💛
Good luck getting to your first 1mil subscribers! I bought a year subscription to duolingo but lost interest. Thanks for reigniting my drive to keep learning mandarin! You have a good heart ❤
Love what you did Chris! It's interesting to see the difference when you did similar things in Vietnam and China. The aftermath of covid restrictions in China is obvious that people prioritize money even when you offered to buy all of their fruits so they could go home early. It's understandable, I'm not saying I'm against that fruit seller, I know he has no choice. It's this aftermath of 3-year covid restrictions.
Thân thiện và nhiệt tình của người việt rất là tốt, mình là người trung quốc ở mỹ, mình có nhiều bạn người việt, mình hy vọng tương lai các vấn đề xã hội của trung quốc sẽ được giải quyết.🙏
The one-child per family policy resulted with many older generations having no means of family support, especially if the parents out-lived their only child.
Hi Chris, Pat from a suburb of Chicago Illinois. I just saw this video while watching RUclips and I was just so impressed with what you did. I decided to subscribe to your Vlog and best wishes to you.
Ở VN thì bán hàng vỉa hè nó thành 1 văn hóa rồi, nên chúng ta thấy đầy đường. Nhưng trong những người bán hàng đó có người bình thường, có người nghèo nhưng cũng có những người giàu hơn nhân viên văn phòng nhiều. Nhưng ở TQ thì rất ít gặp người bán hàng rong kiểu như ông này, nhưng nếu đã gặp thì họ khổ thật. Không phải đến mức là họ đói kém nhưng ở giữa thành phố mà không có tiền thì cực kỳ áp lực. Mình cũng đã có lần gặp 1 cụ bà bán mấy quả hồng, (tức là ít hơn ông này rất nhiều, nó giống như là mấy cụ ở quê VN hái được mấy quả ở vườn ăn không hết mang đi bán được đồng nào hay đồng đó vậy), mình cũng mua ủng hộ 1 ít cho cụ về chứ 8h tối mà vẫn lọ mọ thấy khổ quá. Nhưng đáng tiếc là về không ăn được vì hồng chát quá.
It's really interesting seeing the difference in reaction between Chinese and Vietnamese people when you do this type of thing. I've lived in China for six years and and have also lived in Vietnam. There's such a big difference between the two cultures.
No one can save the world but you prove that one person filled with kindness and humanity can make someone’s life a bit easier. More Chris Lewis’s in the world and the world would be a better place. ✌🏻❤️
Thank you so much to you so kind to buy all from this old man 👍. If your govt just like you so nice and kindness person. Stoping against China again and again every years. It would so much better between China & US.
The old man did overcharge you. How awful he was! He didn’t deserve your kindnesses! Anyway, as always I hope that you are safe and happy for your future trip!❤️
I have watched your videos before ... what you did for the old man was awesome... thumbs up and suscribed! Great job!😊 Those logan fruit looked so yummy!
I have always heard that Asians always take care of the elderly. If he is 60 years old and cannot find work is surprising. God bless you for blessing him! Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your service, Sir. I escaped Vietnam in 1987 and settled in the U.S. in 1988.
Was that China? He spoke Chinese.
@@heythave No, Vietnam. Chris speaks multiple languages.
Yeah, he mentioned a city in China though.
@@heythave This is in China, they even said it in the video.
You are an incredible human being. Not just on linguistic skills but on your kind hearted love of humanity.
the fact that you're speaking fluent Mandarin while helping the guy. awesome.
the question is, would he do it if he never had thousands of people to show his kind gesture? and knowing he will get more views and subscribers which is more money. it's better to help people in humble ways, privately.
@@JalomMatia he makes video to earn money for his life man, dont you have a job to keep your living?
@@JalomMatia actually its not better, as then he would not be able to afford to travel nor would he be able to do things like blessing this man by buying all of his fruit.

Chris, you are a perfect example of what kindness, love and compassion is! May the universe shower you with endless blessings.
He was an honest man. No,he didn't over charge you.

This is not the case in Asian countries. Many take care of their elderly
@user-vm5ud4xw6n or he just wanted to hawk to stay active
He has benefits and medical insurance at home and he can get some help from government as well. The government also provides free land for them to farm and build their houses. That’s why ccp can rule. His living standard may be low but don’t believe him.
God bless you, Chris! We need more people like you in this world.
Mad props to you brother. Showing compassion to your fellow man. +1 sub
Same here hope more sub so he can do more good deeds. I’m stoked he isn’t greedy and shares not only his $$ and Experience he is giving us Americans a name as most of s are.
Nhìn ông đã có tuổi rồi mà vẫn đi bán để kiếm tiền để phòng sức khỏe mình thấy rất thương. Chúc ông nhiều sức khỏe gửi tình yêu từ Việt Nam 🇻🇳
Keep doing what you love doing, Chris - you are an inspiration and your kindness is evident in your videos
Chris, you're absolutely fantastic. This was such an amazing demonstration of kindness and consideration.
Thanks!
Thanks so much!
Much respect Chris. Your Mandarin is great and we already know your Vietnamese is great as well.
Respect....It breaks my heart seeing elderly still doing hard labor just trying to survive.
You are going to have to get used to it, because there is more of it coming. Governments are hoovering up money (expanding inflating debt) to pay for wars and other forms of corruption.
Chris you are a great representative of how us Americans really are. Our government, and media really ruin it for us.

What's the difference?

Hi you made your parents proud and yourself happy as well . God bless your kind soul 😊
Wow! I heard Chinese is a hard language to learn. You are a kindest genius of this century, Chris. Your Vietnamese is not bad neither.
I just absolutely love your videos. You have such a beautiful heart.
You are such a caring and loving man! ❤❤❤❤❤thank you for the channel and video.

Love what you’re doing Chris. Keep it up and God bless 😊👍
You are a good man. God bless and keep you safe!!!
The subtitles weren’t very clear so just letting everyone know that the old man originally said the total was ‘more than 400 yuan’
Well he said around 400, then he decided to increase the price after he realized Chris was going to clean him out.
The old man did overcharge you. How awful he was! He didn’t deserve your kindnesses! Anyway, as always I hope that you are safe and happy for your future trip!❤️
God OVERBLESS you for your Beautiful Heart of Compassion & Love ❤
U are a blessing Chris! Thank u for showing us that kindness still exists in this 🌎. 😊

they look after their own elders, not others outside their family.
Bless you bro so nice of you
Thank you Chris for your goid deeds wherever you are ❤️

Blessings to you.
It was very nice of you to help someone.🙏🏻💖
