I'm reading a YA fantasy named These violent delights and it's based in Shanghai during the 1920's...and I love how Shanghai was depicted in the book so I came here to actually see what it looked like
I’M NOT THE ONLY ONE!! Literally came to this vid straight away so I could get a good idea of what Shanghai was like during this period while reading this book 😆
@@mariaclarke247 GIRL TRUST ME ON THIS! I absolutely adored the way I could picture these exact places in her books. It felt surreal and I loved every second of that book
I am reading a novel about the early year of china Republic 1920 somthing like that. Still the warlord rulling. It curious me to know how exactly this city look alike..
I’m a Chinese living in Zhuhai, and I am really happy with my life in my country. I think my government did good job to provide good quality life to his people.
@@Mark-rt3yd Chinese life today is not short, painful and miserable for huge numbers of people - but it WAS when this historic film was shot in the 1920s.
@@shaolin89 >"Life in China was better before communism." Yea definitely for americans or british but not for chinese people. Shanghai was basically hell on earth for vast majority of chinese people. The nationalist government couldn't get their shit together. They are incompetent to rule the nation. Inflation skyrocketed after the second world war. Do you have any idea why the nationalists lost the war cuz PEOPLE WERE NOT ON THEIR SIDE!! Even the american government didnt want to get involved in the messy situation.

@@rahan9886 YA means young adult and typically it's meant for teenagers in their 15s to 18's
This seems more 1930s; the battleship Augusta depicted here visited Shanghai in 1933
Men pulling people for a living was awful. People worked very hard then and I noticed the shoes were not supportive.
Por isso estou pesquisando no Google e não acho esse Navio. Eu estava pesquisando com a data de 1920....

I know this is a late reply, but that’s the reason I watched this too! (I’m reading These Violent Delights)
Warlords were guardian of regional liberties. They were way more lenient and liberal than Kuomintang and Chinese Communists.

A short, painful, and miserable life for huge numbers of people.
Like most other places in the world at that time. Life in China was better before communism.
