When I was young (1980s) veggie farmers still water and fertilize plants in the same way as 1:20. But now, they just hose them down with sprinklers. More efficient and less labor intensive sure, but also wastes far more water and hence the frequent water shortages. You gain some, but you also loose some.
MichaelRogge Ich freu mich schon darauf! Sie muessen ein unglaublich interessantes Leben gehabt haben und eine Arbeit, die Ihnen ermoeglicht hat, so viel zu einer so tollen Zeit zu sehen. Sicher, jetzt haben Reisen vielleicht auch noch einen gewissen Reiz, aber damals, da war es schon was anderes. Ich koennte mir denken, dass nur noch Peter Scholl-Latour noch mehr als Sie erlebt hat. Bleiben Sie bitte gesund und aktiv und vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihr Hobby mit der Welt teilen.

@@QNFee yes，Yangzi River basin area，no wind，along with river，it's very hot in lots of cities ，we call them “stove city” ，like Wuhan、Chongqing...Winter is warm, and other seasons are humid and sultry, like a sauna and massage house, so Chinese beauty girls，most are produced in the provinces along the Yangtze River.
It's said that real martial arts were a handful of techniques based on what type of work you did; now I know why. How could they endure that grueling work day after day?
Yet the period where China changed BIGGEST is after Mao's death. You can see the policy before and after and how millions of Chinese able to LIFT THEMSELVES out of EXTREME POVERTY for DECADES under Mao Zedong.
@@chinaforcedorganharvest-me7062 No, that's not right. China began to experience huge growth immediately after the civil war ended, not unsurprisingly. The population grew and so did the standard of living, though of course it was hard because China was isolated from world trade and sanctioned etc, the same as all countries trying to be independent of imperial powers. China was not allowed to trade freely with the world until the mid seventies, not even with the Soviet Union, so 'opening up' was simply not an option before that.
Wow These guys need lots of energy for the hard labour they do. China also didn’t industrialize so some of these tasks they’ve done since the medieval period.
@Абзал Абзал Nonsense... Without the antibiotics, fertilizers, and modern medicine that the British gave you for free, you probably wouldn't be alive today

@@oscarchute6040 yeah ，your ancestors themselves invented Opium pipe（大烟枪），Opium dens（大烟馆），FuShou cream（福寿膏），Opium industry...You yourself imported opium from the Middle East in 1700, and became addicted to it in 1800, and chinese developed Opium into a industrial chain. Is it someone else's responsibility?
Great historic footage of the old China with technological backwardness but human industriousness. Glad things have changed for the benefit of the people of China
You see there's the problem, because China was so peaceful it gave a huge open for other countries to come in and rip it apart, in the past China suffered dozens of countries coming and taking what is rightly ours, but as time past The Chinese now learned that the strong will always stand over the small and weak, therefore now you should understand why China's military is so big.
learn your history. China has never been at peace it had to fight many warring northern asian tribes, what do you think the 'great wall' of china was for ? Who do you think wrote 'the art of war' , a china man. What warlord was buried with an army of soldiers in Xi'an ? War has been a way of life in china from ancestral times. Over time the chinese learned to be more resilient through organized society rather than plundering and waging war. But it never was peaceful at the governing level. The Manchu who ruled China weakened it and it could no defend itself against foreigners, not because is was peaceful. Today there are too many chineses and it destroys the natural ressources and pollutes and the Hans Chinese don't care about it. This is why China is bad and disliked by everyone else on earth. It is you who should understand that for these reasons if there is a conflict everyone will turn against china. The reason is simple, you are bad for the planet.
China has never peaceful, the map of China keep expanding is the very proof of that. The only reason why China stop expanding because it took MONTHS for communication from the farthest outpost to Imperial Court. Even with the dove, any actions would take months later to have any effect. Thus China stopped expanding. Not to mention there are no real enemies in China except the North, East of China is Pacific Ocean, South is Vietnam which under China for 1000 years. West is big desert lead to Tibet which China later invaded and India is too far West. Thus China with no real enemies and thus corruptions appear from Dynasties to Dynasties in some of the most deadliest Power Struggle for the Throne.
Fast forward to present, Xi Jingping and many top CCP officials first expand Communication through 5G through Historical Lesson of why many China's Dynasties stop expanding and make it the highest priority. Thus many video about the All Seeing Eyes of China. Mostly to keep Chinese everywhere in the world under CONTROL.
cried for this video. Man Qing Dynasty really made chinese poorer and poorer, minor race should not control china at all! Ming Dynasty chinese had rich life, then Qing Dynasty, Man minor race is too greedy and collect treasure from Han Chinese, then the whole china became poorer and poorer. Feel so sad saw these people who suffering to live.
no，you need reading history...people of social bottom in Qing dynasty ，more rich than that in Ming dynasty. Because the economic policy of the Qing Dynasty was never to increase taxes，and high-yielding crops from South America have entered China, and a population explosion has occurred in the Qing Dynasty
I travelled 600 kms in Oct. 2013 and saw none of the scenes depicted here. Now a modern waterway with freighters transporting new products in both directions. Our ship built in April 2013 was as luxurious as any I have traveled on flic.kr/p/h4Kryi
These are the hard working people of China that made China - not empires and governments that the rest of the world and the tourists only cares about. Whoever dubbed the sound could have done a better job 😕 India also has very strong work ethics but held back by class system and religion that discouraged women participation in the workforce. Explains why China is so far ahead despite having similar cultures.
they are not similar cultures，totally different...Pursuit of wealth, thrift, emphasis on education, collectivism and discipline, communist slave labor habits, these ethnic characteristics made China rich. Indians are loose, believe in fate, have inconsistent values, democratic and individual values, and have a strong artistic temperament, which restricts India's development.
@@slavish_superiority You sound so informed and so wrong. 😂 99% of Chinese were living in abject poverty, just like the Indians, until the last few years. So did the Chinese suddenly developed those amazing characteristics in the last few years? Like the Chinese the average Indians are also prospered in the last few years. So your thoughts need a complete reset. Start again and read and think.
@@lostinmuzak This is the opinion of the people of the world on two countries, not mine alone. Whether it is rich or not in recent years, as well as the ratio of extreme poverty, cannot deny the national character. The national character of the two countries is determined by 3000 years of ancient history, and has been finalized after being conquered by communism and the British in the last 200 years.
@@lostinmuzak National character determines the future of each country. Both countries can become prosperous as long as they follow the U.S. globalization order. China has started become an enemy of the US, and it's modernization process will soon stop, but I also don't think India can replace China as the world's main supplier of cheap consumer industrial goods. On the contrary, people of Vietnam and other countries in the Indo-China Peninsula, who have similar national character to the Chinese, have a greater chance.
The Chinese do eat a lot of rice because rice (and noodles) are the mainstay). It's usually one or two small bowls accompanied by other smallish dishes of various meats, fish vegetables and tofu. It is a pretty varied diet and a healthy diet too.
Excessive food of any kinds will make you fat. Chinese around this time barely have enough to eat. Heck, not just Chinese, peasants everywhere in the world around this time barely have enough to eat.
different race....racial reasons. after eating same calorie food, East Asians will not be fat , and Westerners will gain weight. It's like white people are born with hairy, loose skin prone to spots, and heavy body odor, while East Asians are born without body odor and don't need Antiperspirant or frequent baths，when East Asians are sick, they only need half the amount of medicine for white people to be cured. It is a same reason

See the suffering and even the beauty of the past,the hard working labour,we can't imagine..so hard...!
I think I saw the high risers where my dad rented an attic at during those years.
actually it's very different after 75 years...
do they have windmills instead of footmills ?
in holland we could build mills a long time ago , maybe they have no wind in china
The empire probably only cared abt the royal family than educating peasants
QNFee maybe in the coastal area, but I don’t think Chinese heartland gets as powerful wind as the Netherlands...
