Hey Aluxers, what do you think about China overtaking the US as the largest economy in the world? China is also dominating our ranking on the Richest Banks in the World: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hacbDFyklec.html
Alux.com wonderful and enriching content. I had been to China last year and the magnanimity of the country never ceased to amaze me. Knowing these facts that I didn't know about China makes me want to visit China again to explore the "different" side of life as you mentioned. Thank you for your content again!
1. It's not "cave". It's called Yao Dong, a traditional form of architecture in Shanxi. People have been living in Yao Dong for centuries, not because they want to evade high living costs, but because Yao Dong is the best form of shelter in that environment. I have lived in Yao Dongs and they are actually very comfortable.
C Wu china never have so called one child policy. It's " birth control policy " a lot of family have more than 2 children. This translation was introduced by Taiwanese to the world and its misleading the whole world.
I have been to china several times, and I must say some of these facts were unknown to me till now!! China is a diversified and country with rich culture. Love being there ❤️
+Anti-Depressent Hyper Concentrated Clorox Bleach most stuffs from China to improve yes for most Americans too,else live 3rd world country too, so of course half bad fake stuffs from China too, duh, common sense. China is not catching up superpower of America but reality America will take 100 years to catch up with communist China with all infrastructure, long bridges, tunnels, high tech new airports, law n order, credibility, reliability, power, well, yes, freedoms, factories, high rise, high tech, high living, high education, high class, high security, high safety, high sanitary, high speed Internet n high speed train due America now is looking more like 3rd world nation, Mexico, among highest rate of debt, debtbeat, debtbroke, alcoholic, thug, troublemakers, gangbanger, crackkers, uneducated, incompetent, unemployed, drug users n sellers, redneckk, hibily, trailorpark, peasants, prisoners, beggars, serial killer, shooter, raper, molestor, scammer, cheaters, tax, fine, tickets, foreclosure, abandoned properties, ghost towns n cities, ghettoes, homeless, racist, bigotry, prejudice, inequality, violations of freedom, cop abuse, prison, bloody protests, riots, boycotts, stryke, war mongar etc. . just name of few.
Rui Qiang zeng I agree with you. The infrastructure in America is already 100years old and they are not likely going to update everything in another 50 years or so since democracy's downside is they make decisions really slowly and very unreliably.
#1) Wrong, the local's ancestors have been living in this caves in ancient time because it is comfortable: cool in the summer and not freezing in the winter even without heating. #2) Wrong, it's was the Arabs and the Europeans who "STEAL/CHEATED/ROB" the Chinese of their inventions and technologies. #3) Wrong, this is mainly the Manchurian (non-Han from the north who successfully invaded and ruled China from 1644 to 1911) practices plus they forced the Han Chinese man to wear the pip-tail hairstyle. Besides, only the supper rich and the monarchy are allow to keep long finger nails. #4) Wrong, the latest findings from American/Chinese teams show that lots of family does not register the girl after they were born, so called "invisible girls" because without birth certificate, these girls does not exist and therefore skewed the real statistic about the boy-girl ratio in China. Chinese man will simply marry women from other country since they are becoming richer. #5) One single person does not represented China, period. This is the dumbest example for this type of category/theme. #6) Legal way??? What the heck?
im american, ive lived in japan 6 years but for some reason i am so fascinated with china. I cant stop watching videos about it, however, Ive got to save my money before i go. I believe ive made up my mind, perhaps my first/second english school business will be there. It has so many things I desire, a rich fresh market, kung fu, wonderful marriage market. I am very excited by this video thank you!
Wow I'm so flatter, America is "Beautiful country"... Imagine how they talk to each other... Chung: You know this guy? Sung: Yeah, he's name is Jonah, he's from Beautiful Country Chung: Surely it is, he's a cowboy Sung: Let's listen to Micheal Jackson, music from Beautiful Country Chung: And then eat some noodles
In fact most countries' Chinese name were translated to the most likely sounded characters in Chinese,but since many characters sound the same,we chose the better meaning ones(it depands ur coutry powerful or not in the past time),just like America (meiguo-beutiful country),England(yingguo-hansome country) .I guess Canada didn't deal with China that much in earlier,Canada was translated as jia na da(the three devided characters mean plus-take-big),quite like it's original sound and no special meaning.Sorry to disappoint u :(
#13 is wrong. The translations aren't really intended to mean anything when translated, they just sound like what they're named. Ireland sounds like I-re-lan to us and that's what we call it. Poland is Bo-lan and other countries also have this rule. For an example, in English, Spain is what English speakers call Español. That was the longest comment I ever wrote...
I have to confess that this video is quite objective, although I am not convinced of the number of people living in so called "caves". This kind of living structure is necessary because of topographic factors and rigid climate. But it seems that the majority choose to live in urban areas.
Super Power's China is more advanced. They have the smartest people in the world. They pretty much did everything first in the ancient world. Read a book or something mate
Thanks god I finally find some objective video about China on RU-vid! Please don't be so aggressive about China and Chinese. We are just normal people which is similar like anyone of any other countries in this world! Be friendly and show respect, we can make this world a better place!
Bruce I you guys might haven't seen any Chinese reports. No media has ever spread fake propaganda about the US. And there is no propaganda show like China Uncensored to spread fake news and assumptions anywhere on the internet. On the other hand, if the United States hasn't sent fleets or aircrafts to somewhere near Chinese waters. The Chinese should be the biggest fan of the US. Chinese copy certain technologies from the US isn't because of the lack of innovation, but they just like those too much but didn't get permission to purchase, so they want to make something similar. I hope Americans realize that and let the two countries cooperate like friends.
Hey Alux, the 'utopia' house you mentioned actually translates to 'peach flower garden', which is a reference to the famous poem "the peach blossom spring" about a fisherman mistakenly entering an isolated utopic village. I suggest you to check it up, there are English versions available
No.13 Well actually most of the name of foreign countries in Chinese are just transliterations. For example, England is transliterated as “英格兰”(Ying Ge Lan) in Chinese. While making a name (not a transliteration) for England, they just simply take the first letter “英” (which, by accident, means "bravery" in Chinese) and add a “国”(which means "Nation" in Chinese) behind it. Other (but not all of the) foreign countries's name are formed in similar way like this, like the France (transliteration in Chinese: “法兰西” Fa Lan Xi; name in Chinese “法国”), the America (transliteration:“美利坚” Mei Li Jian; name: “美国”), etc. All those names are just transliterations and do not contain any meaning in Chinese, including flattering.
As for those countries which have "land"(which sounds like "兰" Lan in Chinese, and “兰” means orchid) in their English name, their Chinese name are transliterations, too. But curiously while making names for them the Chinese didn't add the letter "国" behind their first word in their transliteration but simply use their entire transliteration as their name in Chinese (Why? I don't know. Maybe the Chinese people do). Like Ireland (name: “爱尔兰” Ai Er Lan), Poland (name: “波兰” Bo Lan), Finland (name: “芬兰” Fen Lan), their name in Chinese are also their transliteration in Chinese.
Actually visiting the Forbidden city is no longer as cool. Too much foot traffic so you can't enter the buildings any more. you can only view the insides from the door. Keeps it easier to renovate.
Disagree with the No.1,like Zhang X said,1. It's not "cave". It's called Yao Dong 窑洞, a traditional form of architecture in Shanxi Province. People have been living in Yao Dong for centuries, not because they want to evade high living costs, but because Yao Dong is the best form of shelter in that environment. It is more of a culture issue than a money issue.
Wow. I don't know there are so many protests in China, I have been China for 20 years. I haven't seen any protests in any China city. Never at all. That's incredible. Even I don't know what is protests. I wanna ask what is Utopia mean? Why it's most experience building in China? As I know, the most experience building is in Beijing or Shanghai, etc. And China has abolished the One-Child Policy. Thinks!
And you forgot one thing: Chinese noodles was modified by the Arabs and taken to Sicily, Italy, where it came to be known as spaghetti. Ps I love Chinese food😉 Love, from India.
I truly respect China, but small request to all Chinese communist leaders to please give tibetan people their land. No offense to any Chinese people.👍👍👍
Thats the scary thing about China. It is already this powerful as a developing country, second to the United States. What happens when most of their population starts to urbanize and as of right now they are only half way done with their industrial revolution. Imagine in 2030 to 2050 what this country will look like. Scary.
I just want the whole world to become one country, no matter who leads it. Only by this can we go to the distant place in the space, rather than fighting with each other on the earth.
Damn no love corn Kangxi this whole video. He was truly one of the most successful world leaders of the pre-modern world, even though he started at the age of 7
