Someone once told me "in China everything is forbidden, but everything is possible". After soon 7 years living in Shanghai, I absolutely think it holds true.
Can we make chinese youtube channel and earn? Will ads be played on youtube video in chinese language but from india?
Only a Fool Believes everything
I hope you are doing okay during the Shanghai lockdown 🙏
So refreshing to see a CHINESE person talk about china instead of another white guy
true！
哈哈哈 打脸了
There are white Chinese men
Yes!!! I want to hear from Chinese about what life in China is like! Not some blonde guy in aviators touring random places
thanks kinda racist
Here torrent & pirated movie downloading websites are blocked in India but we access them with VPN 😎😂
Or you can just activate encryption in utorrent... that usually works
@@lolerie but you need to access the website to magnet the url
@MariyoW are you Chinese?
Hah just go to specific website that are illegal to access no need a vpn
@MariyoW 1/7 th of the world is Indian tho
You’re doing a good job Simon! I understand sometimes you do have to dance around what might be considered sensitive vs. allowable.
TRUE

Your explanation about VPN and youtube in China is very educational. Keep up the good work and more great contents.

Take care with the social point system👌🏻
Do you live in China? I need business partners from china for import purpose.
Bro, your gonna be famous internationally. But your government will make sure that their eyes are glued on you.
you mean the CIA? oops
liziqi is 100000 times famous than this guy but Chinese government actually praised her, as long as you don't spread rumors about China, why need glue on him?
@@roych3281 It wouldn't surprise me if Li Ziqi is sponsored by the Chinese government, she's a very effective PR tool
It’s ok , his wife is Taiwanese so he always has plan B
its okay tho, many chinese use youtube with vpn, and get more popularity than this and they fine ...
I think your channel is very important because it provides the accessibility of knowledge that might otherwise stay hidden. As an american, I had a vague idea of some of these topics, but you provide a lot of much needed clarity. Thank you
I am chinese ,i use vpn cross the firewall,I guess 50% chinese internet user could use VPN
I think they do use it a lot. I find tons of Chinese people on Reddit and YT here and there.
Your government doesn't seems strict as we thought I think. My Chinese friend used to say, you can do anything at there as long you're not cause the public instability. And most people who user VPN are well educated and can discern what information they should digest.
oh
@@ajinkyatarodekar9099 Do they Spread CCP Propaganda?
@@Fun-rf9vs probably they can, cursing the government is a way of relief for every citizen. But asking the government to take the responsibility for their actions, I don't think they have that kind of high skill of thinking.
And, I saw people blaming local government which is easier for them than blaming the ccp.
You speak very well english.
The correct grammar is “You speak very *good* English.”

Side note: VPN’s are illegal in china if you’re caught with one. During my time in China, an Australian colleague of mine was interrogated for having Whatsapp installed on her phone.
On the contrary, the Chinese government supports rational Chinese people to use VPNS, rather than those who cannot distinguish right from wrong, because the western media's smear on China is omnidirectional. Maybe in a decade or so, when China and the us are equal in power, the world will see China more rationally.

I am from Morocco, I want to continue my studies in China in the future and of course I want to keep connection with my family and friends in Morocco because in here no one use wechat or even know something about it, so thanks for the informations about vpn i think it is the best solution for international students or tourists in China .

Why would someone go to China to study lol
@@Hasanovicc18 there's plenty of amazing stem schools in China.
@@Hasanovicc18 why not ????
hey, do you have any updates ? i'm in algeria and i'm planning to study ai in china as well
i think china banned a lot of international website is not the best decision. i just watched youth with you 2 not a long ago and i just realized china pop is actually as good as kpop tho, but why they not got the fame as much as kpop? its because they cant promote themselves, their music, movie, artist, etc. i think the government need to change their mind about banning international websites and china will got a lot of fame and good feedbacks around the world just like how korea did.
@@riorio745 China likes to put up a fake facade to try and make them selves look perfect to the outside world. And western people don’t like that. We want to see the real china not a shiny fake china.

This was really helpful.. Thank you ☺️... I've been wanting to find more Chinese youtubers.. Im working towards my travels around China, hopefully in the next few years.. China has always been a dream of mine to visit and explore... It looks so beautiful.. I can't wait 👏🏻☺️

The Chinese deserve to have access to UA-cam
Imagine all of those youtuber wannabes in China
They could all contribute a HUGE amount of original videos to the world
The Chinese are very smart and hard working
They do have tik tok and their own version of UA-cam.
Just Two Privileged Countries spouting shit from they ass.
Mmmmhhh not really fucking antis invading japan (also attacking vtubers)
Yeah if indians make rocket launcher out of cardboard what would chinese do and we should think about the all clickbait youtube will recieve
Thank you explaining this and for sharing China with us!!
Igreat content!~
Me: reads title.
Me: * *Boss music starts playing* *
I'm learning about this and it's nice hearing it from you who knows and is familiar about china's laws, the global internet and VPN! Happy to know more!
I had a period where like i actually just binge watch the girl who does like the traditional chinese food and cooking methods, it's really nice to watch tbh very calming
This answers my question a while ago! Thanks for the explanation!
thank you for explaining this in such a beautiful manner. Thank you for making videos, and showing the way!
your videos are refreshing!
My curiosity sent me here. haha after watching a Liziqi video. I'm a fan of hers. Clear explanation sir and a new sub. :)
Your channel is moving up the list, keep up the good work!
Keep up the great content Simon! Thanks for the other UA-cam suggestions. I’m really enjoying Miss Yeah
Now your channel has become my first priority.
Dui
Thank your for all information, your English is very clear.
Really appreciate your information on Liziqi, a wonderful woman that my families & friends in western countries really want to know about her.
We love her lifestyle & her effort to create a better living. Also, she shows gratitude toward her grandmother which nowadays, it’s hard to find this practice.
I like this man. I'm now a new subscriber ✨
Congrats on six months, here's to another great 6!!
Thanks for your info..as an Indian I've always imagined that digital life in China will be suffocating..but now I guess western media sometimes over exaggerate things..as long as you don't speak up against govt you should be pretty safe I guess
Exactly
@@riorio745 this comment proves you're doing the same thing you accuse other people of doing as well. If you have been to China you can witness non-violent village protests that criticize the government, not even police will step in unless there is violence involved.
the chinese watch their own video sharing or brpadcasting platform, even when they are outside of china......thats what he said. THAT is a true national trend. Gutsy, independent minded people. Even russians feel inferior to western civilisation and have developed a servile attitude but hear from this guy. Even if they have free access to youtube, they would still use their 'own' apps!!!
You have a skilled way of crafting your message, ...especially in light of English is your second language. Better than a lot of Americans!
broader range of vocabulary than one usually finds in an american says me an american ;)
@@yahwea If it's colloquial language and you get your message across, then that's fine.
well americans arnt english
bro, your vpn explanation was on point and well explained for the average person. nicely done
China is not any less than North Korea, the only difference is Chinese people actually allowed to travel abroad.
Your English is Nice 💙💜💛❤
Freedom of rights.....many many thanks for my country for giving me freedom
Actually the Chinese government never ban VPN seriously. You could buy it easily on Taobao, at the price of 120~200 RMB a year. Just use VPN as much as you like.
别扯，中国政府没禁过？别当狗腿子好吧
@@zhangsian519 我觉得你的英语要提高一下
他说没认真禁过，我也觉得是，如果不是涉及反政府的事，哪有人管，其实蛮自由的呀，不明白为什么有人会说没自由，我是没觉得

WHY is UA-cam, Twitter, Facebook, etc... banned in China? That's crazy!
Some terrorists planned an attack on Facebook,Chinese government requires these companies to check it.
But it was rejected,because they need to respect user privacy.So they are all banned.
Also, they need control thoughts to make this country safer.
( Ignore these grammatical mistakes if any, my English is not very good, sorry :( !
@ASMR Isah Im sorry to reply to you now (Chinese studies are too heavy
but thank you for your praise ,in fact ,I mean the Chinese government is controlling online speech and news to prevent riots like Hong Kong
This makes it safer here ,and in education, it is also telling students that China is safe and democratic(Even said that Chinese democracy is the most effective ,although I dont feel it LOL
Hi I'm from Philippines❤
and I really want to go in China to see Xing fei and linyi in real life😢
One curious thing about the Chinese UA-cam pirates cited. They all have professional quality video, lighting, makeup, content and set design, none of which is common in the real UA-cam environment. That combination of professional production qualities suggests big money subsidies and support We know who provides that support (and ease of access) as that ensures conformity with the Communist Party line and approved propaganda. But can you tell us? My guess is that you would rather not.
Lol, your comment is ignorant. Anyone csn make high quality professional videos in China, and UA-cam just small part of their target, we have our own video websites in China, once you have VPN, you can upload video anywhere, check some P-orn website, 91p-orn, high quality professional s-ex video from China.
Came across a youtube channel featuring a Chinese Musician, Chenyu Hua. I was blown away by his talent and have been listening to all his music that has been displayed on youtube. While doing this I came across your channel. You got me hooked with your Taiwan bicycle tour as I am an avid cyclist. Wish I could have joined you on that tour. Maybe could have saved you a lot of unnecessary riding misery. Now I am listening to all your presentations. Thank you for sharing your everyday life. Your explanations of what goes on in China clear up distorted images one gets from U.S politicians.
I do not blame the Chinese people for what has happened with the corvid virus. Mistakes were made ..yes, by both China and the U.S. government. Since I have the advantage of freedom of speech and can say what I feel I will add that I am embarrassed by the the way my government is treating China at present.
I hope someday to visit Taiwan and China.
Hey Simon. Always enjoy your videos. My wife loves watching Chef Wang. Also the 李子柒 videos are beautiful. Winston and C-Milk have talked about her in their videos a few months ago. 😀
didn't they say she is CCP propaganda? Probably doesn't even really live in the countryside?
You gonna be the best UA-camr ,keep following and watching your channel
So many Chinese companies have western social media pages as they have international precense. So in China, these companies need VPN
Skype is also banned in China. Love your channel. Traffic in Shanghai is absolutely horrible.
If UA-cam is banned in China then how Liziqi is making video on UA-cam🤔

You have a really clear accent in English.
Waaaao for your English.

And your accent? Poor english 😂😂😂
One more thing, in China, if you need to use services like Google, UA-cam, Gmail, etc. for overseas work and other reasons, you can apply for official VPN channels from your ISP, which are legal.
I am Chinese. And I can only use illegal vpn.
So what is ISP?
Specifically，how can i get legal vpn?
Do you prefer traditional or simplified Chinese characters? I prefer traditional.
this is fascinating I am half Chinese but have never had any Chinese family contact, there is so much Chinese nationals all over the world which seems strange if you have so many restrictions
ikr...the internet is quite literally populated by, expectedly, people from the most populated countries on earth. and yet 1.4 billion Chinese are mostly banned from it. very fascinating indeed.
Li Ziqi has a wonderful channel as well, but I also love your videos! Thank you for educating!
You can use VPN and access any website in China, as long as in a private matter dont comment anything or thumbs up or down!
Why ?
That was such a great explanation, thank you!!!
Hey Simon. Thanks for this explanation. Very clear. But I have a question. How do you get your UA-cam pay? (When UA-cam wants to give you your cheque)?
我覺得防堵不如疏通,與其禁止不如讓大家瞭解. 謝謝Simon解釋很清楚. 也希望早日解禁, 讓大家可以更互相瞭解體諒, 一起欣賞這個世界.
必須放開！
真心希望早日放开 ，其实很多方面中国大陆管的比香港严多了，我喜欢的很多影视作品，都被火墙了拦在外面了，前段儿时间听说有一个中国朋友一周用了200多次VPN ，然后被抓了还罚款
Good explanation. I do have to say I think it's kind of funny that all you have to do is get a VPN. I mean, if everyone is on a VPN then...why bother with the firewall at all? Just keeping up appearances I guess!
Well, when big political events happen in China, VPNs will have connection troubles or just don't work at all for a few days. VPNs could be totally banned if the CCP wants to spend the willpower to do so, but a lot of companies need it to operate.
Thank you for the channel recommendations! Trying to learn Mandarin myself so that I can go to China someday. Definitely want to visit Shenzhen and Shanghai.
感谢您的频道推荐！我自己也在努力学习汉语，以便有一天我能去中国。当然想去深圳和上海。
So that's the reason why Liziqi stopped posting videos on YT 😔😔😔
Many migrant worker who work in china actually use VPN for communication with family, etc. Of course itvs not legal, but itvs the only communication available aka whatsapp.
Have you ever gotten in trouble for accessing websites that you aren’t allowed to?

我可以告诉你一些事实，很多人没翻墙出来之前还是对台湾很友好的，但是起码有一半以上的人翻墙之后就会变得非常厌恶台湾人，主要还是台湾媒体经常扭曲丑化中国大陆，所以网上就相互攻击。

VPN DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE
Then does using Hotspot Shield in China work?
So, I'm wondering for UA-cam channels created in China, most of their subscribers are from outside China? The Chinese UA-cam channels you recommended, for example, some have 100K+, one even have 11M+ subscribers - mostly from overseas? What %? I hope someone can answer this.
Almost every young man in China use VPN, so I personally think maybe more than half of them are Chinese.
Congratulations to your 6 months' anniversary.
VPN basically gives you a unique temporary new ip adress based to where you want to connect since every country has their own ip configuration. Hence your device will connect your brower servers into that country's server where you are connected. And im 95% sure that your information is encrypted and are in safe hands. But always remember that your wifi/server provider has an access to your data at all times but our privacy rights are above that in most cases, the worst thing that can happen is to get watched by the government. However, dark web do exist which transcends all government eyes into your data. BUT, you are not safe either.

GFW is more of an expression of government attitude, I am watching you. if you don't cross the line too much such as supporting separatism, terrorism,etc, no body cares what you are doing.
You left out free speech, human rights, religious freedom, ethnic issues, history... etc.... Ohh and whistle blowers like the doctors in Wuhan. You know... those that died trying to warn the world about Coronavirus.
Chinies people are awsemn and talented but they fear lot to there communists those people' should read some history about freedom in various nations took palce this kind of bravery and fredom fighter is never there 🙁in people of China, soon they will clone peace of North Korea( jail life) and keep troubling world with debt trap and lots of scam in there border dispute

Great video, great insights, much information. Thank you!
I want to ask a question that is unrelated to this video, why Simon can speak English so fluent?
章祐綸 Some Shanghainese graduates can speak English fluently because Shanghai‘s culture
It just means he kept using English. All Chinese must learn English in school, English is a mandatory section on the national college entrance exam, and English is also a mandatory subject in college. However, just like how in the US foreign language is mandatory, you'll quickly lose it if you don't use it.
Some great grand parents generation in shanghai was very good in foreign languages. Shanghai was a very modern and developed city in the first half of the 20th century.
That is a racist comment, he speaks english fluently, clearly because he has taken the time to develop this skill
章祐綸 I am foreigner living in Hebei subscribe my Chanel explore china with me
I guess there will be least 10m mainland Chinese watching UA-cam. Just look at the amount of Chinese UA-cam subscribers, take say 60% 40% mainlanders and overseas Chinese, the estimate will be easily 10m.
Pat Zorro 10 m? at least 3hundred m people

Jesus christ dude how about u do some research rather than exaggerate things like how the media does
But china even have no acces to VPN and Its blocked in china And its great fire wall has bpn detection
There are many VPN providers. If you want VPN, you will get it. Of course, many are paid VPNs, so it's about 16 to 24 RMB per month. (I've heard of free VPNs before though).
As he said, many people actually need VPN because their job requires it. The possibility of "getting caught" is actually very low. So many people use VPN. If the police will put every person in jail, that'll be half of China's population.
As long as nobody's badmouthing the Chinese government (and they have proof that they said something wrong), there won't be any problems.
Wow I never knew about this I thought UA-cam was not banned in China because it not banned here in South Korea 😳
Great Video! I follow many Chinese UA-cam channels from Xian showing historical places. You gave a really excellent explanation of what is going on. Thank you!🙂👍
Great video dude. Really well explained and I loved the background shots of your city!
