I really, really want to visit China for the food, culture and history. My husband has been to Hong Kong and Macao and he said it was amazing. The only difference, he said, between Las Vegas and Macao is that the Chinese take their gambling VERY seriously and it was hard to get a drink. They ordered drinks that never arrived...which is funny because every Chinese person I know in Australia can drink us under the table. I find Chinese people to be very loyal. You only have to do one nice thing for them and they will do 100 nice things in return. Our local Chinese restaurant owner (sorry for the stereotype), owns several restaurants and is freakin' loaded. His restaurants are more classy than your average Chinese take away joint. Every time we go there he asks us to stay until closing, he locks up the restaurant and then just gets us completely blind drunk on all of his top shelf booze. He even lets us behind the bar to help ourselves, then he drives us home in his awesome BMW (and I'm pretty sure he would be well over the legal limit himself) - luckily we only live around the corner. My husband provides him with racing tips and they actually have each other's mobile numbers and send texts about the races all the time. All of this for just being a frequent customer. He gives the cops free meals so that he can get all of his staff out of their speeding fines and drink driving charges. He's the best guy you will ever meet and soooo generous. I also work with a lot of Chinese people, all of whom are, once again, so very generous, polite, loyal and down-to-Earth. So yeah, I think China and the Chinese are pretty cool.
+LJY08 You sound like you would appreciate going to Taiwan first then China or Hong Kong 2nd. The simple reason is that it should be easier to start with Taiwan. The reason is that, China has gone through a really big change and it might be harder for you to find what you are looking for there at first, while Hong kong is densely populated and imo gone through their very own unique success and change also. Taiwan seems to have changed recently also but because of the effort of chiang kai shek, it might be easier for you to find what you are looking for there. You might spend more time in China as China has alot to offer in the long run, but I think you have to know what and where to go.
Honestly, I don't think that China is perfect, but as a chinese,I love my homeland no matter what you guys said, the same thing you will do to your country, isn't it?
Chinese isn't perfect. Just a country that want to be a king of the world. Even money, or things, or political, or product they can't be the king. Just make the products to the world to use is enough. 明白嗎?
The host has a Chinese face which is the reason why the majority do not want to offend him by saying something negative about China/Chinese. Answers would be kind of different if the host does not have a Chinese face.
What's my honest impression of China? Well, I'll just say one thing about some of the final comments in the video. A lot of people, perhaps particularly in the west, tend to delineate things along the forces of good and the forces of evil, or the darkness and the light, etc. etc. A lot of westerners think that China is some communist place that is (economically, socioeconomically, etc.) dramatically different from the west. But it's not; in fact in many ways China is much more capitalistic (and ultra-competitive economically and in other ways) than the west ever was. Take a trip to China and you'll see Lamborghini's and Ferrari's line up the entire streets of Shanghai, Beijing and other coastal cities-that's just one example. Bottom line: the world and nations' governing systems aren't so easily separable into a naive "good" vs. "bad" or "democratic" vs. "communist." There are many, many shades of grey in between. Like I said, travel around the world and you might open your eyes.
Here's an explanation of what I mean by China being more capitalistic: e.g. employers can set up factories without having to bother about workers’ unions, or NGOs or environmental groups (all of which have a lot of influence in western societies). There are fewer rights to strike, and fewer environmental concerns. This high level of capitalism is one of the reasons that 700 million out of 1.3-1.4 billion people were pulled out of poverty (though they're still poor of course) in the course of 30 years. In the coming decades, seven times more Chinese will be educated; so far, only 200-300 million Chinese have actually had access to any decent amount of education. Another fact: also in the last 30 years, the percentage of people in extreme poverty has been reduced from 84% to 10%.
TANGO DECHINE he's a Chinese dude pretending to be a white girl. He might be a "Westerner" as in a frustrated ABC living in Canada or something China isn't more capitalistic than the West. To set up any business in China you have to set aside a major slice for some corrupt bureaucrat. When the government (including the military) is fundamentally entwined in every aspect of the economy that's not a "more capitalistic" society CCP is definite a "bad" government in many measures that any logical person or future historian would use to judge it... it's an OLIGARCHY primarily dedicated to guarantee the continued domination of 1 party. The STRATEGY they are using atm is economic development to keep ahead of dissension. Previously they used shit like violence a la Tiananmen however that doesn't mean they're doing a bad job or aren't developing the country. from 1992 when the reforms began in earnest as part of the social contract to move beyond the massacres of 1989 and the push-pull of conservative-progressive infighting in the CCP that crippled the nation for 2 decades after Mao... the CCP has successfully lifted more coolies out of poverty than any other government in human history. right now about 200 million people in China live like middle class. around 100 million are elites. and a billion plus or so are extremely poor (but not starving and above 3rd world as they were for the 200 years of Western domination and decline of Qing) basically you can think of a swathe of coastline in China about the size and population of Japan + South Korea combined as living decent lives (with a swath of development in the hinterlands of North China from the coast up through beijing)
hithereshalom yea, partly agree with you, but I think China is more capitalistic. You talking about corruption and government control and subjects like poor people. This kind of situation existing in China for thousands of years before "commu" was born. That comes with a bad side of Chinese culture. We have to admit Chinese got both bad and good sides in their culture. So that is why Kerry Carlsen said China got so many grey zone in society that you can never judge by simply good or bad, commu or capital. Chinese do never go with any rules of commu or capital, they go their own ways. So as a person has experience both living in US and China, I think most westerner still see China with a tinted glasses in their own perspective. Just like before I came to US I think us people are stupid and aggressive and smelly. I found the life in both countries are so similar and no difference, it is nothing about politic system, it is about human nature.
Kerry Carlsen What people don't realize is that just like the American government, the Australian government, the British government, etc. is that China also has political factions. Not everyone is a communist. There is a huge left and right wing conflict in China and several political incidents in modern Chinese history are caused by different political factions within the government itself.
I find the comment section comical. "But If he wasn't Chinese!" Look, there are of course racist white people and racist Asian people. But the fact that there are good things to say about China and the fact that people are civilized about it show that China is in a good position globally.
lmao true. as a chinese growing up in west in a dominantly white neighborhood i can confirm that this is so bullshit. sure, they love our food, our cheap products and our traditional clothing but later they be calling us ch*nks, communists, dirty, poor etc
There are alot more asians in the US, in Europe asians are way less in numbers and they tend to have the same income if not lower than the average European. And yeah it's true in a sense that Europeans don't like Chinese because they always buy places up and change it into small Chinatowns, differentiating them from the local Europeans. But I think asians integrate really well, they can be indistinguishable from Europeans except for name and appearance.
I wonder what would have happened if there wasn't a muscled Asian dude asking them the questions. If it was another white guy, I bet these Aussie punks would have said all kinds of racist shit.
China was richest and largest economy in the for thousand of years until western colonization, please the history books, in 1820s China still largest economy in the world...
As a Chinese I would like to answer the question of the lady in the video, in China the Communist Party is absolute power. Chinese people can't question the government and can't talk about politics. On the Chinese Internet, as long as you talk about politics, almost all text videos you publish will be automatically deleted by the system unless it's content praising the government. All government policies Chinese cannot interfere, strikes and marches and protests are illegal. Anyway, China is an authoritarian country, and it is a country that started very late. Compared with Western countries, this has led to government corruption (the global corruption ranking is 78 in 2020), and it is almost impossible for high-tech manufacturing to catch up with European and American countries.
As a Chinese, I question your identity as a Chinese. There is another possibility that you are Taiwanese, or what you think is inconsistent with the reality. If it is true, as you said, because such a political country is impossible to make progress, but the fact is not the case. We will question the teacher in the political class. Our social platform will not delete the remarks about improper governance, as long as they are not extreme
What language do they speak? Do you mean the national language, or just what languages they speak in China? Because on average I hear at least three to four different languages every day. Where I live you'll hear Mandarin, Amdo Tibetan, Kham Tibetan, and Qinghai Dialect spoken within the space of an hour. Fun fact, each nationality has their own language, except the Hui so even without dialects there's over fifty languages.
actually many Chinese people prefer their own dialects. For example, people from Carton speak Cartonese. People from Shanghai speak Shanghai dialect. And many people from Fujian province speak Southern Min. A majority of Chinese people can speak Madarin. But many of them don't really speak Madarin in their daily conversation. And btw, very nice video. It is good to know what people in the west think of China.
Travelled there a few times, mostly in bigger cities, it's safe, clean, convenient, affordable (daily items like food), and they have fast trains. Most importantly, the people are nice.
mwrihi It's because China's government still claims to be communist and it still has "People's Republic" (used for socialist countries) in its official name.
young pan-african well yeah they call themselves communist because they're anti-american and the definition of america is basically capitalism and the contrary to capitalism is communism. people should try to look further than that though, bc china really isn't communist. it's capitalist and fascist.
1. How do they feel about the rest of the world? I wanna know more about other languages and other cultures. Travelling and experiencing other cultures is a great enjoyment for me.
Most Chinese do not like arrogant Japanese because many ancestors were massacred by Japanese. The Communist Party of China is not as bad as Westerners imagine, at least in my opinion, the current economic and living standards have risen much. As an ordinary Chinese, human rights and freedom, I have never felt bound or bound by any rules or rules. Despite all the corruption and irresponsibility, everything is getting better
+Wilto n Chinese alphabet is not used in korean and its a bit different in Japanese like they use 3 writing systems and even the kanji letters are not always the same as chinese. Do your research.
Оскар Юлёнен I dont need to do research I live in Japan and know it well. kanji uses both traditional and simplified Chinese. And although nowadays korean dont use Chinese characters directly but actually their language have combined Chinese but they just changed characters after 2nd world war. If you know the this 3 language you will ezly find the pronunciation of alot of word are very similar.
Not all, but a lot of assholes to be honest. They took their China trip and still trash talking, or being racist to Chinese people after they went back.
Westerner is a vague term. Westerner, does it mean people in the West or white race? People in the West include all the races in the planet. African continent include Arabs, African, European etc.
만다린은 중국어를 말하는거래요ㅎㅎ I feel this video is a little different At the begging there is no explain about this video and the end of this video there is no conclusion like Steve's opinion haha But i really like Asian Boss and wait new video everyday haha
Dear Asian Boss. Theses day there are lots of Persian girl in Sydney and Melbourne(Cause of Asian football championship). can you approach them or interview them?
guangdong people also speak cantonese,not only in hong kong.😓😓😓 cantonese means guangdong dialects or guangdong people,not hong kong dialects. there are more than 100 millions guangdong people whose mother language are cantonese.
I'm going to write my comment here. Not sure if you're reading this. I've been watching your Asian Boss clips and I enjoyed your effort at raising awareness for Asians, especially Asian men. I'm from the US. Regarding a particular clip as this is, I want to chime in my opinion. It's good that the guy who asked random strangers on the street is at least well buff muscular guy, not a typical skinny guy. Check. What I like to suggest in your future interview on random stranger is, when you ask a question, make it interactive and try to engage in lively conversation. If you don't know what to speak of, try to practice before you go off. I found some of the question to be stilted and too rigid to digest. For eg., When you asked "Where was 2008 Olympics held?" a girl answered "Beijing.". He asked "Why is that?" She murmured "It's because it's Capital?" And you said "Yes, Yes, Yes." This is a typical response in Chinese coming from "对,对, 对". In Western conversation, nobody responded in "Yes, Yes, Yes." Besides, this is not Job interview question. You have to make it lively and interesting. Ok, you wonder why would you improve? Yes, I'm spending time to write my two cents thought here from the States. You could have used the tactics like "Oh by the way, do .. any of you (If you're asking more than 1 strangers), have any idea where 2008 Olympics was held?" Instead of "Do you know where 2008 olympics was held?" The former is more lively and adds more words into your questions and the latter question is like "Interrogation" type of question. When the girl replied "It's because of Beijing is capital?" You can engage in a conversation like "Yea, just like Canberra is a capital of Australia." by making this conversation, you are actually making an effort to be lively instead of responding in “Yes, Yes, Yes”. I know that I'm not as active as you guys are. But just to give my two cents thought on how much more we can improve as an Asian guy. Kudos to your videos.
These young people are australian.China is the only reason Australia's economy survived the financial crsis and prospering.Unlike other western nations,Australia is the only nation's economy continue growing after 2008. Because china's hunger for raw materials,chinese tourist ,chinese companies and chinese people's investment,Autralia's GDP per capita surpassed united states. Of course australian will view chinese ppl positively. Ask other western country's people,you will get different answers.
Some of these girls were checking out your torso xD! Love this video, that girl speaking Mandarin at the end was very impressing ^^ And lol if the girl really knew what the relationship is between these countries... It has a long long history...
Also, "what language do the speak in China," is a stupid question, as there are many languages spoken in China - Not only Mandarin, but also Cantonese, Shanghainese, Hokkien, Hakka, Uyghur, Tibetan, Mongolian, Zhuang, and countless others, including English in Hong Kong and Russian in parts of Xinjiang and the Northeast.
How's their relationship with Japan and other Asian countries? To be honest, China has a very tense relation with its neighbors and there are some territorial, cultural, and historical conflicts that are still not resolved.
I was thinking waw at a pleasant surprised that the Americans knows so much about China. But in the comment section i noticed that the video is made in Australia.
In Vancouver, I find there is a massive hate-love relationship for the Chinese. The biggest reason why is it depends where in China your family is from. The reason I say hate-love is because most people mix us from others all up then blame us for everything that we haven't done. I've had a person who knocked on my door and said, "ni hao," but I'm Cantonese... Well, at least they tried.
喵爱弹琴的牛 WTF? I never said that. It's not even relevant to what I said. I'm only saying that most people dislike you based on where you are from. Main reason why is due to the manners that they present are actually quite different. BTW, I live in Vancouver and because I'm *Chinese*, some person came up to me and said 'ni hao'. I don't speak a lick of Mandarin.
Same as the Video where a western person ask the Chinese what do they think about the US, in this video a Asian guy (that is probably a Chinese) asking people for their opinions on China, what can people say other than they like China?
What is different between Chinese and Mandarin? Aren't they the same thing but just different way of calling it ? By the way, catonese is only one dialect of china
+Xiang Lin catonese is not the only dialect in China. There are many dialects in different places of China. For example, Shanghai native people can speak Shanghai dialect which is very different from catonese.
+J Bond I don't think that's what the original poster meant xD He/she meant that cantonese is ONE of the many dialects in China, not catonese is the only dialect of china
The one girl that said China used to be a very poor country is wrong. They used to be the richest and safest country in the whole world. Everyone wanted to moved there back then.
+ Xu Yincheng That's interesting. So what is the situation then? Are you guys free trade and communication? Or is there still some restrictions on what you have access to (communication wise), and with regard to free trade arrangements?
+LJY08 free trade is not a problem in china. China is now, i's rather say, business country. The primer and president of China are very busy in engaging business with Europe, Africa, America, yes, the rest of the world. E-commerce in China is super, super cool. You can generally buy anything that you can imagine online. Free and fast delivery. Sometimes, you buy things in the morning, and you will get it in the afternoon. The only communism part in China is more about the freedom of speech. In most occasions, we cant search information related with the president, or so called "negative information" in the internet. Some sensitive issues are not allowed to be discussed. But you would not be arrested except your words caused great impacts on the society. Also, we cant log on facebook or youtube or google, this kinds of stuff. Because Chinese government can't control the information on these social networks. Instead, we get replacements, Wechat or something. I think they are better than facebook, because they are more easier to be used. Given the situation in China is so complex, I think some sort of control in information is necessary, but the Chinese indeed need to be opener regarding these issues.
it is just different from oppinions that i got from my friends... westerners usually think chinese are rude, cocky, .. and other negative impressions. isnt it? maybe the chinese guy in the red was too scary n big to say bad things towards chinese. don get me wrong. im not saying chinese are bad but the stereotype westerners got is as not good as people in the video said.
No the ones who are saying that online are usually ethnic Chinese especially from Singapore, HK or Taiwan b/c it puts them in a bad light and they want to differentiate themselves from Mainlanders.
Simply put; wariness and soft racism in the mainland, openness and friendliness in Hong Kong and Taiwan. I lived in the mainland for about a year when I was younger, the people I was around knew I was Japanese. That said, I've been to Hong Kong and Taiwan on work many times as I'm a photographer. Every time I went to both places the people I met were more than friendly. They sort of reminded me of my time in intimate small towns in Europe as the people I met there were always open and welcoming to me.
lol, racism in hong kong. People in Hong Kong white worship as with the rest of asia. Asian women submit to white men. Taiwan is a racist pro japanese country.
Chinese suddenly did not become powerful or they were poor. Until 1600 China 24% was second in business next to India 30% n US n UK was only less than 2%. Coz of British colonization both the countries became poor in 1800. They had talent in built many centuries. Once British looted and left their country. Both China n India started to develop. And so today China is powerful.
+Hiếu Nguyễn Trung they will eventually get a vietnamese guy also i bet...right now it seems from their videos, they have Kei(Japanese), Steve(Korean), and this guy(Chinese)
Well there is a lot of border dispute my friend and a lot of problem going .. India's greatest enemy is pakistan and China is supplying them weapons.. helping them financially of working together soo what more can I conclude? :D And its good if an average chinese is not anti-Indian.
+oo3838468 And it also created a wealth gap, huge poverty, destroyed the enviroment and created a very opresive goverment. And china is powerfull mostly because its instralization which could have happened under communism like in the Soviet Union.
What language do they speak in china is a stupid question... There are tonnes of natural languages in China, like Yue, Amdo, Hakka, etc. if not because of the political concern, there should never be only one "official language" in such a big country...
I really, really want to visit China for the food, culture and history. My husband has been to Hong Kong and Macao and he said it was amazing.

As a Chinese I would like to answer the question of the lady in the video, in China the Communist Party is absolute power. Chinese people can't question the government and can't talk about politics. On the Chinese Internet, as long as you talk about politics, almost all text videos you publish will be automatically deleted by the system unless it's content praising the government. All government policies Chinese cannot interfere, strikes and marches and protests are illegal. Anyway, China is an authoritarian country, and it is a country that started very late. Compared with Western countries, this has led to government corruption (the global corruption ranking is 78 in 2020), and it is almost impossible for high-tech manufacturing to catch up with European and American countries.
As a Chinese, I question your identity as a Chinese. There is another possibility that you are Taiwanese, or what you think is inconsistent with the reality. If it is true, as you said, because such a political country is impossible to make progress, but the fact is not the case. We will question the teacher in the political class. Our social platform will not delete the remarks about improper governance, as long as they are not extreme
@@sll6773 专制国家照样能进步,例如二战前的德国和苏联。你在中国生活过应该就知道,绝大部分人是不会谈论政治的,赞颂政府的可以获得最多的播放量,阐述事实的一般会被小粉红喷,并且会被限流。像之前的宁波工程学院的外教事件都被政府把所有的新闻都封杀了,深圳地铁保安要乘客给外国人让座等等。还有中国大陆的房贷利率全球第一,人均收入却只有1万美刀,房产权70年,田地属于集体,日本在二战后就被美国给土改了,中国大陆在78年才土改。不管是资还是社还是科技起步晚还是早,只要是专制就一定是错误的,因为人民得不到权力一定会禅师贪腐。
What language do they speak? Do you mean the national language, or just what languages they speak in China? Because on average I hear at least three to four different languages every day. Where I live you'll hear Mandarin, Amdo Tibetan, Kham Tibetan, and Qinghai Dialect spoken within the space of an hour.
Fun fact, each nationality has their own language, except the Hui so even without dialects there's over fifty languages.
Wooo! That's me there guys!
I'm a bit disappointed in some of the other people's responses...
Hi there~
+Ursula Milani which one was you? im curious to what your response was.
Inquisitve m That's me replying at 0:32 (middle one, brown hair).
The relationship between China and Japan, I would say "it's sucks "
Panda diplomacy...
Ye Japan is much better
@@gigachad9047 for personality, nope .. japan sucks
@@taknaknak4957 no China sucks
@@gigachad9047 where are you from?
Yeah, Let's ask it again in 2021...
The last girl speaks really great and normal Mandarin!!!!!
Shit that last girl can speak quite clearly
I love the last tiny girl!
actually many Chinese people prefer their own dialects. For example, people from Carton speak Cartonese. People from Shanghai speak Shanghai dialect. And many people from Fujian province speak Southern Min. A majority of Chinese people can speak Madarin. But many of them don't really speak Madarin in their daily conversation. And btw, very nice video. It is good to know what people in the west think of China.
Yuchen Kong People in Canton廣東 speak Cantonese粤語,Hakka客家話,Teochew潮州話 , and Hokkien閩南話.
People of west do not think bad about china.😊
Travelled there a few times, mostly in bigger cities, it's safe, clean, convenient, affordable (daily items like food), and they have fast trains. Most importantly, the people are nice.
How China suddenly can get so powerful? Because we're not communism, that's one of the biggest misconceptions about China haha. Good video though.
Communism... What a wonderful dream...
true. china is capitalist af, people who say that china are communists are probably americans
mwrihi It's because China's government still claims to be communist and it still has "People's Republic" (used for socialist countries) in its official name.
young pan-african well yeah they call themselves communist because they're anti-american and the definition of america is basically capitalism and the contrary to capitalism is communism. people should try to look further than that though, bc china really isn't communist. it's capitalist and fascist.
mwrihi
Do not try to use the words invented by Westerners to describe China’s current ideology.
1. How do they feel about the rest of the world?
I wanna know more about other languages and other cultures. Travelling and experiencing other cultures is a great enjoyment for me.
Most Chinese do not like arrogant Japanese because many ancestors were massacred by Japanese. The Communist Party of China is not as bad as Westerners imagine, at least in my opinion, the current economic and living standards have risen much. As an ordinary Chinese, human rights and freedom, I have never felt bound or bound by any rules or rules. Despite all the corruption and irresponsibility, everything is getting better
👍👍👍✊✊✊
언제나 흥미롭게 잘 보고 있습니다^^
So western culture is based on English alphabet, eastern culture is based on Chinese characters. So the world is simplified.
You cant say a whole culture is based on an alphabet and the alphabet is latin/roman anyways and the chinese alphabet is used basicly only in china...
Оскар Юлёнен ok roman alphabet not english alphabet. and chinese alphabet also used in japanese and korean.
+Wilto n Chinese alphabet is not used in korean and its a bit different in Japanese like they use 3 writing systems and even the kanji letters are not always the same as chinese. Do your research.
Оскар Юлёнен I dont need to do research I live in Japan and know it well. kanji uses both traditional and simplified Chinese. And although nowadays korean dont use Chinese characters directly but actually their language have combined Chinese but they just changed characters after 2nd world war. If you know the this 3 language you will ezly find the pronunciation of alot of word are very similar.
+Оскар Юлёнен agree
I reckon the interviewer should be non-Chinese
Maybe he is Japanese or Korean xD
FYI: Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken in Malaysia as well
Wow! I thought all westerners hate china...
They don't want to offend the interviewer!
Where did you hear that?
Not all, but a lot of assholes to be honest. They took their China trip and still trash talking, or being racist to Chinese people after they went back.
Westerner is a vague term. Westerner, does it mean people in the West or white race?
People in the West include all the races in the planet.
African continent include Arabs, African, European etc.
@@elenay9737 Yes, but they all live in the same environments.
more and more westerns have more knowledge on China and some of them even once lived in China, that's great
I like them being friendly instead of talking hatefully or politically😁
“In Hongkong they speak Cantonese” OK so Guangzhou never existed?
外国人很难了解这么细吧,再说粤语是香港的官方语言,但在大陆却没有这个地位。就像都知道巴塞罗那讲catalan,但很少有人知道安道尔全国都是用此语言的
Some people say China is no longer socialist but we still keep the major features of socialism. Don't worry, we'll be strong as a socialist country
中华万岁 Good but make China a liberal country with human rights
china is a socialist country and everybody knows that.😊
If Japan admits mistakes like the Germans do, the Chinese will not hate them.
만다린은 중국어를 말하는거래요ㅎㅎ
I feel this video is a little different
At the begging there is no explain about this video and the end of this video there is no conclusion like Steve's opinion haha
But i really like Asian Boss and wait new video everyday haha
Dear Asian Boss. Theses day there are lots of Persian girl in Sydney and Melbourne(Cause of Asian football championship). can you approach them or interview them?
Where is it?
Australia?
yes Australia
People are like "Chinese food is sooo good" and I'm like " if you go to China and eat REAL Chinese food you may change your mind "
Where have you been going
SO TRUE, Im from Singapore, well some of their food i like, but most of it just nahhhh
Jang Yuan China
hahaha
What's wrong with chinese food?
guangdong people also speak cantonese,not only in hong kong.😓😓😓 cantonese means guangdong dialects or guangdong people,not hong kong dialects. there are more than 100 millions guangdong people whose mother language are cantonese.
Ask conservative MEN if you want to know honest opinion.It's a worldwide thing.
I'm going to write my comment here. Not sure if you're reading this. I've been watching your Asian Boss clips and I enjoyed your effort at raising awareness for Asians, especially Asian men.
I'm from the US.
Regarding a particular clip as this is, I want to chime in my opinion.
It's good that the guy who asked random strangers on the street is at least well buff muscular guy, not a typical skinny guy. Check.
What I like to suggest in your future interview on random stranger is, when you ask a question, make it interactive and try to engage in lively conversation. If you don't know what to speak of, try to practice before you go off. I found some of the question to be stilted and too rigid to digest.
For eg., When you asked "Where was 2008 Olympics held?" a girl answered "Beijing.". He asked "Why is that?" She murmured "It's because it's Capital?"
And you said "Yes, Yes, Yes."
This is a typical response in Chinese coming from "对,对, 对". In Western conversation, nobody responded in "Yes, Yes, Yes." Besides, this is not Job interview question. You have to make it lively and interesting. Ok, you wonder why would you improve? Yes, I'm spending time to write my two cents thought here from the States.
You could have used the tactics like "Oh by the way, do .. any of you (If you're asking more than 1 strangers), have any idea where 2008 Olympics was held?"
Instead of "Do you know where 2008 olympics was held?" The former is more lively and adds more words into your questions and the latter question is like "Interrogation" type of question.
When the girl replied "It's because of Beijing is capital?" You can engage in a conversation like "Yea, just like Canberra is a capital of Australia." by making this conversation, you are actually making an effort to be lively instead of responding in “Yes, Yes, Yes”.
I know that I'm not as active as you guys are. But just to give my two cents thought on how much more we can improve as an Asian guy. Kudos to your videos.
You are lovely, Welcome to China!
I love that Asian Boss translates everything so everyone can watch it!
what do you think of china??
.
me: ''MADE IN CHINA''
These young people are australian.China is the only reason Australia's economy survived the financial crsis and prospering.Unlike other western nations,Australia is the only nation's economy continue growing after 2008.
Because china's hunger for raw materials,chinese tourist ,chinese companies and chinese people's investment,Autralia's GDP per capita surpassed united states.
Of course australian will view chinese ppl positively.
Ask other western country's people,you will get different answers.
Not now.
Some of these girls were checking out your torso xD! Love this video, that girl speaking Mandarin at the end was very impressing ^^ And lol if the girl really knew what the relationship is between these countries... It has a long long history...
China is a cool place. I'd love to visit it someday and plan on doing so.
if I was asked.. " it's full of beautiful slim women"
What accent does that Asian guy have? It just sounds funny to me. Maybe Australian?
Love china food and temple...i hope you upload more about china
Maybe try a country that isn’t Australia? Australia is quite friendly to all Asian countries. Maybe try America or some European countries.
Oh,welcome to visit China everybody.
OMG love this vid please make more about Chinese
Also, "what language do the speak in China," is a stupid question, as there are many languages spoken in China - Not only Mandarin, but also Cantonese, Shanghainese, Hokkien, Hakka, Uyghur, Tibetan, Mongolian, Zhuang, and countless others, including English in Hong Kong and Russian in parts of Xinjiang and the Northeast.
How's their relationship with Japan and other Asian countries?
To be honest, China has a very tense relation with its neighbors and there are some territorial, cultural, and historical conflicts that are still not resolved.
with ind.
Thank you for your videos.
I was thinking waw at a pleasant surprised that the Americans knows so much about China. But in the comment section i noticed that the video is made in Australia.
Good video! Please do more!!
In Vancouver, I find there is a massive hate-love relationship for the Chinese. The biggest reason why is it depends where in China your family is from.
The reason I say hate-love is because most people mix us from others all up then blame us for everything that we haven't done.
I've had a person who knocked on my door and said, "ni hao," but I'm Cantonese... Well, at least they tried.
So what U wanna say? U are not chinese?Because u are cantonese? LOL Hello cantonese I'm shandongnese.
+Kaptionist
Be proud of being a HongKonese.
Tell them that you are NOT Chinese. period
喵爱弹琴的牛 WTF? I never said that. It's not even relevant to what I said. I'm only saying that most people dislike you based on where you are from. Main reason why is due to the manners that they present are actually quite different.
BTW, I live in Vancouver and because I'm *Chinese*, some person came up to me and said 'ni hao'. I don't speak a lick of Mandarin.
Mostupdate I'm not from Hong Kong, but I do tell people I am Chinese. To be more specific, I tell people I am Chinese-Canadian.
+Kaptionist
Do Canadian majority truly accept you as a Canadian ? I've heard many Canadian people are very "conservative"
Same as the Video where a western person ask the Chinese what do they think about the US, in this video a Asian guy (that is probably a Chinese) asking people for their opinions on China, what can people say other than they like China?
Gee. China is already one of major countries. Well, it always has...
中国人就是竞争 就是进取 就是务实 除了这些没别的了 不用在乎别人的眼光 那是岛国心态
What is different between Chinese and Mandarin? Aren't they the same thing but just different way of calling it ?
By the way, catonese is only one dialect of china
+Xiang Lin catonese is not the only dialect in China. There are many dialects in different places of China. For example, Shanghai native people can speak Shanghai dialect which is very different from catonese.
+Xiang Lin Mandarin是Chinese的子集
+J Bond I don't think that's what the original poster meant xD He/she meant that cantonese is ONE of the many dialects in China, not catonese is the only dialect of china
i am happy to see a lot of America like China
really love your videos ~
The one girl that said China used to be a very poor country is wrong. They used to be the richest and safest country in the whole world. Everyone wanted to moved there back then.
like back in few hundreds years ago lol
China was very poor after WW2 because China was still living in the past
they won't say bad words in front of a chinese host.
yeah and its sure that u Would say smth like that I just have to look at ur Profile pic
Haha I think so but that's still part of their opinion doesn't it?
I see you guys in Chatswood often!
these austrillians are quite cute ,much better than those people in the states!canadians are lot better than the states as well
Asian Boss Are you guys Chinese, Japanese, Korean?
Seeing how western women sort of know about Asian culture and their feelings towards Asian men, how do western teenagers feel about Asian guys?
Yeah,we are not communism now actually,but we still use the name “communism”. cause we dont want to say that we were wrong...
+Yincheng Xu JAJAJAJJAJAJJAJJA but is not capitalism!! CUZ THE GOVERMENT IS IN ALL BUSSINES!! ALL!!
+ Xu Yincheng That's interesting. So what is the situation then? Are you guys free trade and communication? Or is there still some restrictions on what you have access to (communication wise), and with regard to free trade arrangements?
+LJY08 free trade is not a problem in china. China is now, i's rather say, business country. The primer and president of China are very busy in engaging business with Europe, Africa, America, yes, the rest of the world. E-commerce in China is super, super cool. You can generally buy anything that you can imagine online. Free and fast delivery. Sometimes, you buy things in the morning, and you will get it in the afternoon. The only communism part in China is more about the freedom of speech. In most occasions, we cant search information related with the president, or so called "negative information" in the internet. Some sensitive issues are not allowed to be discussed. But you would not be arrested except your words caused great impacts on the society. Also, we cant log on facebook or youtube or google, this kinds of stuff. Because Chinese government can't control the information on these social networks. Instead, we get replacements, Wechat or something. I think they are better than facebook, because they are more easier to be used. Given the situation in China is so complex, I think some sort of control in information is necessary, but the Chinese indeed need to be opener regarding these issues.
韩天 Don't feel too bad about not having the world wide social media tools, you're not missing much LOL!
Interesting post.
LJY08 : )
Is it me or did the subscriber base skyrocket since you added korean and japanese subtitles?
Yes, a lot of views from Korean.
We China is becoming stronger and stronger.And I am proud of being a Chinese.We will change the world!
+Alex Jan
How exactly are you bring about changes to the world ?
Spoken like someone with a true inferiority complex.
@mostupd ate8802 not only him he said we.😅😂
Is the interviewer chinese? His voice sounds deep and cool to me
it is just different from oppinions that i got from my friends... westerners usually think chinese are rude, cocky, .. and other negative impressions. isnt it? maybe the chinese guy in the red was too scary n big to say bad things towards chinese. don get me wrong. im not saying chinese are bad but the stereotype westerners got is as not good as people in the video said.
No the ones who are saying that online are usually ethnic Chinese especially from Singapore, HK or Taiwan b/c it puts them in a bad light and they want to differentiate themselves from Mainlanders.
Which government in that case should governance a China and how when CCP fall down?
My experiences with Taiwan and Hong Kong were always good... mainland... not so much.
+Nozomi Suzuki
Would you please be more specific as to what differences those are between them ?
Simply put; wariness and soft racism in the mainland, openness and friendliness in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
I lived in the mainland for about a year when I was younger, the people I was around knew I was Japanese. That said, I've been to Hong Kong and Taiwan on work many times as I'm a photographer. Every time I went to both places the people I met were more than friendly. They sort of reminded me of my time in intimate small towns in Europe as the people I met there were always open and welcoming to me.
lol, racism in hong kong. People in Hong Kong white worship as with the rest of asia. Asian women submit to white men. Taiwan is a racist pro japanese country.
bobo lee So what's wrong with pro - japanese? Japanese has all best.
Wish China could be respected again
please make a video about Taiwan...
why? similar culture, same lineage of people
taiwan is the best
Yes plz
***** 哈哈
is there Australia?? most women are really beautiful... i wanna go there...
Chinese suddenly did not become powerful or they were poor. Until 1600 China 24% was second in business next to India 30% n US n UK was only less than 2%. Coz of British colonization both the countries became poor in 1800. They had talent in built many centuries. Once British looted and left their country. Both China n India started to develop. And so today China is powerful.
I love how in every single video, westerners = white.
Don't believe the media, Americans like you as well. I love my Chinese exchange student friends :)
why don't you guys make a video talk about Vietnam ? is that a too small country to talk about ???
I am a big fan of you guys. and I'm from Vietnam
+Hiếu Nguyễn Trung they will eventually get a vietnamese guy also i bet...right now it seems from their videos, they have Kei(Japanese), Steve(Korean), and this guy(Chinese)
Bro . . I know you are Chinese and Anti-India.. But I want you to do a video on . . What do westerners think about India!
Well there is a lot of border dispute my friend and a lot of problem going .. India's greatest enemy is pakistan and China is supplying them weapons.. helping them financially of working together soo what more can I conclude? :D
And its good if an average chinese is not anti-Indian.
***** Sure.. lets end this here.. and anyways an average Indian also has no ill feelings for China!!
But much for pakistan .. haha :))
这么多人说喜欢chinese,没看到一个人说taiwanese,心疼
主持人真帅
How China suddenly can get so powerful? Because China turning to capitalism 因為經濟型態轉變了(以前比較封閉,現在是逐步開放了),中國很久以前也很富有,最早是因為戰爭,後來因為政府,經過幾十年的修養,現在是人民普遍逐漸富有了
+oo3838468 And it also created a wealth gap, huge poverty, destroyed the enviroment and created a very opresive goverment. And china is powerfull mostly because its instralization which could have happened under communism like in the Soviet Union.
Оскар Юлёнен Like USA earlier
cool video !.
you find so healthy strong Chinese face person to interview the people,does they say negative words? the videois meanless
情深祖国,祝福天朝。
Ask girl???? usually girls opinion are so sweet
China. In ancient times, rich.
China in modern times, poor.
China now... SUPER RICH.
What language do they speak in china is a stupid question... There are tonnes of natural languages in China, like Yue, Amdo, Hakka, etc. if not because of the political concern, there should never be only one "official language" in such a big country...
Actually there are many languages or dialects in China
Does anyone know Guan's INS or FB ????????
I like high tech like modern buildings,foods etc
Was this filmed in Sydney??
