Richard is back!! He's very wise and intuitive for the age of just 16... Hope this video let you gain some perspective on the life of a half-Chinese kid growing up in rural China. Dropping a THUMBS UP would mean a lot!
Richard has the best of both worlds Eastern and Western cultures. Trust he will have a bright future in China. I really appreciate both you and your father open up China to the world to see real China. Jiayou Good on you Mate.👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
Legit, Richards family is the reason why China is growing into a powerhouse. Honest, hard-working, giving, reserved and modest. This kid is going place.
Yes, the mother too stopped to give a lift to a person who has no money to buy a bus fare to go home. The 83th Brigade of the PLA was sent to Zhengzhou, Henan Province to help with the flood relief and another Kiwi Andy had visited the flood affected areas and saw first hand teams of people from different provinces pulling together to clear the mud and debris and working throughout the days and nights to help the region. So heart warming as a socialist, Marx opined about the altruistic socialist person to be created and this is in practice.
@@flebnard What??? What is a tofo? Is it something you deposit out of the end of your torso? Or is it a typo and you meant tofu? The only tofo I know is the thing they fed you when you are kept in the dark just like a mushroom.
Very matured young man. Many at his age are lost and rebellious. His grandma and mother taught him life lessons well. He lives by experiencing it in his daily life. Older generation went through hardship and poverty so they will always advise younger generation to cherish food. Chinese upbringing to value family, community and help others. Father has more Western values and individual thinking. He will grow up to be a good man.
I'm now an old English woman, & was similarly taught by the example of my parents who lived through the great depression in an area which was badly affected. I was a child during post WW2 austerity - nothing approaching the devastation China experienced. I am totally convinced that it is the right way to live, but there seem to be few of us left now, & I feel a misfit in my own country. We made so many mistakes that China has avoided thus far. I am very sad to hear that many young people are lost & rebellious. In my own country, as a stereotype, I notice not only a lack of good parenting for several reasons, but when not at school, parents take them to recreational activities still with their own peer group. Thus they suddenly enter the adult world without any experience of it & feel lost. The only adults they have met are parents & teachers. I find that the few children I know who mature, have had experience with other adults often watching them at work as they chat. IMO children need to learn much more than academic attainment. It's a difficult one. They need education to get a good job in the city, & lead a better life style which is what all parents hope for their children and they need to acquire other skills. I suspect that Richard has matured so well because of his experience in the adult world through his travels with his father. Yes, much much better than summer camps.
I probably will never get tired of watching any video of wonderful town of Yangshuo! This isn't even the main downtown of Guilin city, yet you can already witness the extent of rapid social and economic development that happened in China rn, which is fantastic to learn in this case knowing how the region around Guilin must be pretty challenging for a great, rapid socio-economic transformation and modernization but China had once again proven themselves to be fully capable of doing that😃😍
I get this nice warm feeling watching Richard. He’s a lot more matured than kids the same age in western society. I would like to see more of him, please.
Richard is lucky to be living in China during its economic transformation and booming years as during his grandma's younger days, many, including my ancestors, would risked the high seas trying to escape the hardship and poverty to a foreign land, history seems to be turning around and those who stayed are now better off than many overseas chinese
Richard has a big heart! I think this is the most precious gift he got from his family. As a Chinese living in Germany for years, I still always feel the positive influence of my parents and grandparent. The culture, the food, the tradition, as well as the attitude towards life will stay with me for the rest of my life, no matter where I live. P.S. I really hope the corona will end soon so that I can come back to China to visit my parents and friends, I miss the food sooooooooo much!!
Kind, Genuine, truthful, capable of self-reflection and independent thinking. A wonderful young man. The infusion of good core values of both cultures from his parents create somewhat pragmatic and balanced perceptions in him as to ppl and to the world. That is truly the greatest gift any parents can give to their children. Thanks for this vid.
Thanks to the Barrett Boy's once again (minus the elder this time) for an inspiring / insightful interview of a solid down to earth, old soul (aka: Mr Richard). Regardless of conducting an interview in China, it gives me great hope for the new generation of youth & spirit...........to reflect on their roots & heritage & teachings by elders. Well done mate!.......Cheers to the both of you!!...............
In this country they also skin alive fully conscious dogs in fur leather factory and throw them away in a huge garbage bin. Where they die of pain and hunger. And they take sharks out of oceans and cut their fins and throw them back in the ocean. For stupid dish called shark fin soup. God please save the world. China is destroying the earth in the matter of no time. If these 1.4 billion people keep eating marine life 24/7, soon there won't be a single fish left in the oceans. God make china go extinct before they make marine life go extinct
Heart warming video to see Richard speak about his family and the values they taught him by way of example. Probably the best way to teach somebody. Richard should do well if he sticks to those values. One comment: Omeida's motto is "Help others. Help yourself" It means what it says. It is through helping others that you help yourself. It isn't the other way around where you help yourself first, then help others. The motto is more profound that one suspects...Jiayou!!!
@@internationaldaily9820 I believe racism pretty much exist everywhere. Minimally, sub conscious racism. It just a matter of how tolerant, forgiving the people/society is.

Wow, the views are beautiful, looks relaxing. And the cafe seems like a cozy place, the cat is so cute. Also Richards mum seems like an awesome woman :D and he is taught well. At such a young age his thoughts are very wise.
Thanks for the video. I met Richard online on Mandarin Corner. It is nice to hear him speak English now. Please make more videos showing China with Richard.
@@elvishassassin1 it is possible till 18 years old. everyone born by at least 1 Chinese parent on Chinese territory is automatically Chinese citizen. And also get the NZ citizenship via the embassy. But China does not allow dual citizenship for adults.
Humble understatement of him to say that he is learning English. His English might be not as perfect as it whould have been, had he grown up in an anglophone country, but he has no problems to express his thoughts and his pronunciation is neat. It also seems like he is really relaxed talking in English, not anxious. I think he accepted the translation offer when speaking about his grandma out of sheer politeness, no real need to do so. His English is really good. Good boy! I hope, he will have a long and happy life.
one reason why I like Chinese, is the people's value and perspective in life ... and Richard has learned them well from his elders and I do from him! I say, I do almost agree with him except for the one on doing an extra mile, of course there is a limit!
Oh, wow! Thank you for bringing back the smart young man - I believe that Richard's mom is a strong influence on his intelligence and reflective mind. Actually according to psychologists, moms passed on intelligence to her kids at 99% rate while dads passed the physical attributes. I really love visiting China after watching those various blogs by among foreigners visited China. Great interview 👏
Man.....the part about is grandmother. It really reminds me the struggles my great grandmother went threw in North Carolina, USA. Thank you for sharing Richard life story.
Good on ya Richard. Your mum and dad should be very proud of you. I'm a Chinese Kiwi and we'd be happy to have him back here in NZ! Nice interview Olli. I really enjoy your videos and so impressed by your progress learning Chinese. Keep it up!
Wow, amazing. Oli, when I first saw your video in 2019, I was amazed how mature you were. Now seeing Richard, I am amazed at another mature young man! It's usually difficult to have a conversation this deep with this age group but Richard is very precocious. When he mentioned that he's never been able to go aboard, I can see his eyes had some degree of angst and regret. I hope that he will have a chance to travel to New Zealand and abroad soon.
When are you going to his village and meet his family? Especially his mother. Does his father live there or in NZ? I'll admit to watching this vlog more than once because you, Oli, did an excellent job interviewing him. The rapport between the two of you was interesting to watch. I would love to visit China one day!
Loved this video w/ Richard. He is an awesome young man. You are so lucky to have the chance to talk to him and hear about his life and his families life in China.
Hello Richard. I'm happy to know you and your life story. My son is Richard, 15 years old, half Chinese & half Slovak. He lives in Europe, Dublin. He's saying hello to you! All the best Richard, you are very nice & polite boy. We like you both.
This is a fundamental how Chinese family and tradition is alike regardless where a Chinese is. The basic reason of the conflicts between the Western countries and China are that different in fundamental ideology such as how one perceive about life. I strongly recommend Westerners to learn about "道理" which these are the two characters which serves as the fundamental how Chinese lives and communicates. If one does not grasp what 道理 is, he or she may find it very hard to understand the Chinese culture. Literally translated, 道理 means Pathway, when you walk, you follow a truthful pathway, and when you communicate, you too follow a pathway that others find reasonable, if you are not reasonable, then no Chinese would like to talk to you further. One good example, what Richard learned from his Grandma, "stay away from bad person" is a way of living, a pathway of absolute truth. I was taught since young of the same 道理, in fact, every Chinese are taught of this in some way or another. In western culture, there has no such thing as 道理。
My favorite thing about the Barretts is how they brim with joy that shows how humbled and privileged they feel about doing what they do and love. Big up da man dem!
Even i am order double ages years than this young . but We almost have the same type of grandmother. They taught us cherish of food .Because it's really tough time the past chinese experienced. They remind us the life we have comes not easily. and they always keep working . and they do a lot farm work . and always want to give more for their offspring.
Richard unfortunately is too young for my daughter. If not for that, I would try and get them together in a heart beat. Hope my daughter will get someone like Richard!!
The Kiwi Boy Richard was so gentle, it would be nice to records his mom and other family members into the video. His mom was an amazing woman, you can tell she is very smart, kind and strong. I’d been to YangShou once about 19 years ago, we’d been to the popular show “The Imagine of Liu San Jie”, which was amazing, we loved it so much! I’m a GuangZhou born Chinese, I moved to Auckland of New Zealand when I 13 years old, and now, I lived in Toronto of Canada. I love to go back to my mother land “China” so much, love the food and friends over there. And I missed my family and old friends in New Zealand a lot too!
Richard is back!! He's very wise and intuitive for the age of just 16... Hope this video let you gain some perspective on the life of a half-Chinese kid growing up in rural China.
