The Chinese Spring Festival is the perfect time for cultural discovery and making new connections, and "TikTok refugees" who have moved to social media platform RedNote after the U.S. threatened to ban TikTok cannot get enough of it. In this edition of The Hub, CGTN's Wang Guan talks to Travis Phifer, Jeremy Barker, and Jaybill McCarthy, American content creators and users who have been exploring Chinese culture and sharing their journeys online. "It doesn't feel like the internet," says Jaybill, describing the kindness and friendliness he finds on RedNote. Barker reckons he has learned "way more" about China on RedNote. "Everything bad we have been told about China over the years is a projection of the U.S. itself," he remarks. Meanwhile, Travis describes his "amazing experience" on RedNote as "without the hate, the trolling and the constant advertising" he saw on other platforms.

Happy New Year from the US 🇺🇸 we are truly thankful for how welcoming you’ve been on red note - we aren’t leaving
Welcome always our dear friends 💞
Stay! There's so much we can learn about each other!
@@samliew6610 thank you so much
@@Elfan97-ec1uk I hope to
This is beyond amazing, thank you all....Spring Festival is what we look forward to..
I think that a lot of Chinese media is more respectful, and certainly much less graphic, thankfully. Oh, yes, and a lot less advertising.
And then a lot of information in the US concerning China has been very biased, distorted, often deliberate negative propaganda to manipulate people's opinions about China.
It is such a relief to see more about China, the Chinese people and what a wonderful place it is.
It's "Almost" like a "Civilised Town Square"...?
It only we had one of those already??

👍👍👍
Chinese media are way more professional than their western counterparts !
Happy Chinese New Year from Germany!
Happy Chinese new year!
GUONF HEI FAT CHOI to everyone!🐍🐍
I was among the first and it's been pretty great. In the first days there was no translator. 😅 the early days were chaos and so much fun me and my wife were laughing for days. 🎉😂
i was there then too (even though I'm from New Zealand I still left Tiktok when they implemented the ban) and it was such a great feeling seeing XiaoHongShu add the translation feature for us all. I'm actually so surprised how much i've loved that app this past week or so. I needed to get back to practicing Mandarin, its been 10years since i left high school and stopped learning it, and I went to XHS to learn more common phrases, so I dont sound like a walking textbook when i speak hahaha XD
新年快乐! Happy New Year! I look forward to visiting your great country with its amazing food, people and culture.
Modern life is lonely life, these people miss human connection SOOOO much, ( same here) and I can totally relate. Happy New year everyone! 💝
Happy Chinese New Year!!
GUONG HEI FAT CHOI!🥳🥳🐍🐍🐍🐍
Happy Chinese New Year
I love that this is getting so much press! This is important for the world to know: we’re breaking through the barrier of empire!
The Chinese have been admiring the United States and its people for a long time. There is nothing wrong for the Americans to admire the Chinese people and culture, although some of them remain critical and unwilling. Together we prosper, together we excel.
This was a great introduction to Chinese social media, thanks for a good POV
Happy Chinese New Year!
Thank you all for your sharing 👍Glad to see many Americans started to know about China and its people through Red Notes

Happy Lunar New Year to All!
Happy Chinese New Year everyone !
Happy New Era 2025! Loving China
The average Chinese is always mindful of Confucius teachings . One is showing a behaviour that others be happy to follow
Yes .... Confucianism flows & merges into almost every Chinese Culture, Religion practices & Family life , such as Filial Piety, Respect & Love
Please publish in Full HD format in the future!

Don't forget to uplift voices from BIPOC folks that are friendly to China too.
Happy Spring Festival!
Good interviews.
More of this, please.
新年快乐
CGTN needs to improve its picture quality urgently!! Does 480P make sense? A state-run broadcasting station? Is that what the editor intended? editor is 公知??
If you're not familiar, look up "supermarket diplomacy" during the cold war.
The US basically just did reverse supermarket diplomacy on themselves by accident.
Happy CNY from 🇮🇩
Happy Lunar new year 🎉🎉🎉❤🎉🎉
Happy Chinese New Year! Hopefully those massive futuristic train stations and airports can handle the migration of hundreds of millions of people. Im sure this was thought of when they planned them. Incredible country! The future is the East and China specifically.
Happy Chinese New Year and not Lunar new year. It's no such thing as lunar new year.
For Vietnamese n Koreans n others who r non Chinese, Happy Lunar New Year is a more universally embracing n inclusive greetings for The Spring Festival ❤
The Chinese calendar is indeed the lunar calendar which is based on the orbit of the moon around the Earth. The term "Chinese New Year" is only applicable to China and Chinese descendants around the world, while the term "Lunar New Year" applies to the above plus all other countries which use the lunar calendar as their traditional/religious calendar, such as Vietnam, Cambodia and Korea.
A lot less advertising. ❤
It’s Happy Chinese New Year NOT Lunar New Year 😊
Not only Chinese celebrate this... The day is also celebrated in Vietnam, Korea and the likes.
主持人不要说Lunar new year。我们华侨正在努力改正老外说是春节chunjie和chinese new year。CGTN平台上你说Lunar…
請問為什麼不能說農曆新年及春節？！
@ 能说春节及农历新年。但不要说lunar因为不是“月亮历”。
The best part [and I don't use twatterX or anything like that anyway plus it wasn't banned in Europe, in fact Europeans were celebrating that it was finally a channel they could use and enjoy] was that the ban did more to prove Chinese govt claims about the US than they could ever have dreamed. I've seen so many claims in various videos about RedNote saying that people in China genuinely thought that what they were told about how bad the US really is was nothing more than govt propaganda. Only to discover by talking to people from the US that it actually wasn't, it was not only all true but that it didn't even give the whole picture of how bad life really is there [health industry -US- vs health care -rest of the world, the number of shootings compared to the majority of the rest of the world, quality of food in the US compared to the rest of the world and little things like that] compared to nearly every other country in the world. Oddly it is an own goal like that - from the US govt - that you can't even hope to achieve for informing your own citizens just how much better they really do have it than in the US.
ps any chance your lovely long trains to Europe could possibly include passenger coaches at some stage, would love to visit China but prefer train travel to plane travel.
480p??? What happened to CGTN???
AND it's my birthday on Thusday.
Happy Birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday 🤝🌹

很奇怪他们怎么不用快手代替tiktok，快手更像它啊

Why did this guy not invite any female guest…
Lack of journalism awareness!!
You raise a fair point. Hopefully, they will do another episode on this topic, make it a periodic topic, and include mixtures from different backgrounds.
