- In this video I tell you about the ways that I feel China has changed since I've been here. I give you the more obscure, less obvious ways, because who wants to see another GD video about High Speed Rail and Mobile Payments? Not me...

中国变化真的很大，我91年生的，家在江苏 宿迁 泗洪 ，记忆力小时候是真的很穷，住的都是泥巴草房子，也很少有好吃的，小时候从来没想过以后生活会怎样，后来到南京10年到南京读书，每年回家一两次，每次回家都很惊讶，到处都楼房，没几年大家生活普遍都好很多了。小时候我从没想过我以后会开车，后来也买了，在南京工作了好多年，现在到上海了，感觉一路都是向着好的方向发展的。
Great insights! So in other words, it has changed heaps in the last couple of years.
I first started travelling to China in 1998 until 2017; 4-5 times a year and still find it so amusing and how fast it changes for a country that size... Truly Amazing
Amazing, that's exactly what i observed too 😂 that changes that happened in the past decade. one more thing is that EV cars in China skyrocketed too.
Very true and very down to earth video, love it.
When I visited in the early 2000s, people were smoking on buses, trains, hotel lobbies, restaurants, offices, schools, hospitals-literally everywhere. Their cigarettes were way too strong, and there was so much second-hand smoke that I was concerned, even though I was a smoker myself. Last time I visited, most people only lit up at designated smoking areas, and they started selling lighter cigarettes.
Yep that’s a great one. The entire public space has changed drastically thanks to cigarette laws. Also, since I didn’t want to bring up trains in the video I didn’t mention that not just smoking on trains has changed, but sharing a table on a slow train with 6 other people while piles of sunflower seeds stack up a foot high has changed too. Now everyone sits on the fast train facing forward in their own chair and watching their phones the entire time :(
Our Chinese people are intelligent, hardworking, kind, and brave. The political elites in the Western world who aspire to make China a banana republic will not realize their dreams. The Middle East, Persia, Iran, and Far East China are both extremely proud and stubborn civilizations. Even if they may be in an unfavorable position for a while, or even conquered by foreign races and religions, their inherent pride prevents them from being transformed into other ethnic groups. On the contrary, as long as they seize the opportunity, they will decisively establish their own national flag again and throw themselves into the long river of history with their unique posture. Jack Sullivan, the National Security Assistant to the President of the United States, personally stated that spending too much money over decades to turn China into a banana republic has completely failed.
They are a developing nation and civilization. They tend to adopt what is good western or eastern culture and tend to adapt that well and quick. I think its a good thing.
This is a wonderful list of less noticeable changes compared to hi-speed trains and cashless payments in China. Smaller changes are just as significant. You made a valuable contribution to anthropology. Perhaps you can come up with other changes that missed this cut.
Thanks bro. I’ve got some others for sure. Mostly even more obscure/deranged and possibly more personal. Maybe in the future ..
Hello Eric, greetings from the USA. I misunderstood you when I first came across one of your recent videos. You are the best; keep up the good work.
Thanks for giving it a chance :)
Qiantan area in Pudong was a junkyard next to the Huangpu river 20 years ago. now it has NYU shanghai and schools for expats and locals from kindergarten to college , Taikooli and other 5-6 big malls, several 5 stars hotels like Kimpton, Shangri-la, waldorf astoria etc，oriental sports center, 3 metro line and another one is under construction (line 19)
I don't know if it's just Shanghai, but public parks are refurbished and no longer fenced, which is great.
Love your down to earth, honest to god reviews!
3:48 that mimic is awesome! You even managed the Anhui accent.
All improvements, can't say the same about America. It's going the opposite direction.
Brings back some old memories. I definitely don't miss the old days lol! I remember girls used to have like a poodle type of hair style, absolutely horrendous. It's good things have improved tremendously. 😂
Oh, I remember the old days, especially the notorious city inspectors(城管).
So, all together made such a quantum change and it's not gonna slow down or stop. Enjoy!
Very informative and relatable, thank you
Awesome video!
Remember ShangDao coffee, was quite pricey 😂😂😂
lol yea and so terrible
Got to give a big heart to you when you “xiudiannao…”hahah so fun
I hate that dang recording!! Used to hear it so many times every day 😂
the street dogs're still exist in college campus, and they will randomly carry off someones takeout
3:17 is that your actual payment receiving QR? I wonder if you received any money :P
lol yea it is. Someone sent .01 and someone sent 5 already
Fish pet store , 新一家, Walmart almost gone
Dude, you know China better than most Chinese people😮
The impression of the urban management group is very bad. The vendors who set up stalls on the street hate the urban management the most. There are many videos of a group of urban management beating a small vendor. Some vendors will resist, but some will not. Whenever such an incident occurs, the public unanimously denounces the urban management. Although the urban management who beats people will be fired without exception, the city management is synonymous with brutal law enforcement and has become a brand. This situation has eased in recent years, and road occupation management and urban management are always at odds with each other.
1More, wild exotic animals delicatecy, not saying I am a fan, it’s a good thing
"偷水果死全家”😂😂😂😂😂
哈哈 one of my favorite photos I took in China. 2013
@@Eric_Garrison yeah 10 years ago it was crazy and chaotic, but full of lively hood and people went crazy for development and money, what a passionate time it was. Now china entered the start of a golden age, a lot of things quiet down
Amazing
Is the gruesome stuff seen less because it’s actually safer or because of censorship or some combination of the two? I remember seeing those videos and it always broke my heart, so I hope it’s actually safer.
I’m not too sure. Probably combination of things. I have noticed more in recent years if something is potentially unsafe they’ll put up a sign or a little cone thing instead of just , for example, having an open manhole cover for anyone to fall into lol
China has been evolving all the time. Every 10 years it is like a different world. People are putting more thoughts on every aspect of life now.
petty crimes
did you say they'll send master shifu to FIX you?🤣from an app?
Didn’t mean to, maybe I clipped it wrong😅
The content is interesting but I had to force myself to watch to the end as the narration is simply too fast. Either sounds like a speed train or you are trying to compress too much chatter in a short time frame. The video would be more enjoyable with slower narrative and clearer enunciation.
Ok. People need tiktok speed and quick cuts or they click off unfortunately.
Sign language? :)
Chinese one hand counting. Guess it’s a form of sign language yea
You know, I think what you're doing, filming like that is illegal. If they wanted to, they could arrest you for illegal journalism. Perhaps look into that.
Filming in my office isn’t illegal 😅
