    We Chinese will not be blindly arrogant. Most of us in China can see the world situation clearly, so we still believe that modesty and practical work are the truth, and we still understand that China still has a long way to go. We are not rising. We are just going to go back to where we should be, although it will take many years, but I believe the Chinese can do it.

      I just want some food: The whole china is now cashless, even in the rural areas. Cash is of course accepted. You can try, but to be safe, you better deposit money in China using a Chinese bank card or have your friend to send money to you. Alipay accepts foreign credit cards, but you have to pay 3% service fee.

      Dennis Oo Jenn Ning This is completely different cashless you r talking about. its more like walletless or e cash. Basically i can transfer u money as fast as deliver u the cash. U can txt msg me with a mount of money within wechat and once i received the message and accept the money, i can use it right way. i dont even need to have a credit card or any bank card to use wepay. As long as i can get people send money to me, i.can also transfer those money to a bank card.

    That charging box he was using, is giving you free charge the first half hour, so basically if you charge your phone every half hour, it cost you simple 0 RMB. and those powerbanks could be placed into other box in completely other location. It's like a huge network of free powerbanks, which you just need to remind yourself of putting it back before 30 min mark, else onwards it will cost you 10 rmb or something every 1 hour, something around that.

    WeChat permeates the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the Chinese people. I do not know other cities, in China's third-tier cities, you can find the following: first, you go to the hospital to see a doctor, if you do not use WeChat appointment, you directly go to the hospital to queue, may wait a day to see the doctor, because everyone is using WeChat appointment, the hospital must first WeChat appointment. Second, parents send their children to school on the first day of school in September every year. The school stipulates that tuition fees should be paid through WeChat. Basically, no parents will bring cash. The 3rd, before buying a house, it is to understand the information of house each respect through WeChat, include door model, form a complete set, position, plan, form a complete set, property, design, garden to wait, choose a room through WeChat when the house opens next sale, choose good room to pass WeChat pay deposit, just need to use bank card to pay the remaining money finally. Fourth, the local government in promoting progressively through WeChat dealt with all kinds of certificates, our city WeChat have been implemented to deal with the electronic id, personal medical insurance card, house property card, marriage certificate, divorce certificate, driver's license, buying MPF, passport, birth certificate, all kinds of professional certificate, etc., you can WeChat pay phone, Internet fee, water fee, electricity, gas fee, TV fee, gas, such as car illegal capture all the cost of living. Fifth, I have not carried a wallet and cash for two years, not spent a penny, I have forgotten what the RMB looks like. Wallets don't sell in China, just as slippers don't sell in Iceland. Remember, I'm talking about China's third-tier cities, my way of life. First-tier and second-tier cities are more convenient.
