The Media Doesn't Want You to See THIS in China! 

After 4 long years I finally made it back to China! This the 1st video in a brand new series on RU-vid where I document my journey through 4 different cities and showcase what China is really like in 2023! Thank you all for your amazing support! So honored to have such an amazing community supporting me! Thank you for subscribing and supporting the channel! ~ Cyrus王德中

What an honour it was to walk and talk with you my great friend. Until we meet again. Kind Regards Alex

We want a peaceful world without all warmongers.

If you want to see the past *1000s* of years of Chinese history, visit _Xi'an._ If you want to see the past *100s* of years of Chinese history, visit _Beijing._ If you want to see the past *10s* of years of Chinese history, visit _Shanghai._ And if you want to see the *future,* visit _Shenzhen._

As a Korean born Aussie I experienced the anti China narrative for many many years and gradually developed a sympathy for them when the rest of the country were losing empathy for the Chinese. I see that this process is necessary prior to war and is evil. Good people must see the truth and act. Well done.

I've visited China four times and saw different regions. Every time I've visited... I've seen big improvements. I would even be bold enough to say that the major cities in China are now overall cleaner looking than the major cities in the US. For one example, I've visited public parks in Dalian and was amazed at how clean they look. No litter or graffiti anywhere... even the skateboard rink looks clean. And there are lots of people out there enjoying the parks... but seem to have respect for the facilities there. Where I live, public parks are often vandalized and abused. When I return home and tell my co-workers about my travels to China.... they refuse to believe me or the pictures I took. They just want to believe that I was shown around a "fake city" built for showing tourists. The fact that I was walking around these cities unescorted... still won't change their beliefs. No, these people still want to believe that China has "backward smoggy cities, where everyone still rides bicycles and wear grey old clothes because they are all poor and starving". I often hear ignorant statements such as: "The poorest Americans still live better than the average Chinese". The irony is these people never traveled to China or even want to watch these videos. And yet... these folks talk like they are all "China experts'. Very sad... and infuriating at the same time.

You two guys are heroes who tell the truth against the dominating narrative of the west.

Honestly, if the majority of the people (especially those in the leadership positions) in the United States are like these two gentlemen, the world would be much better and much more peaceful.

Thank you for giving China a voice it needs. A voice that is objective, without bias and prejudice.

我是中国人，谢谢你，你是个和善的老外。我们喜欢包容的外国人能接受中国的好也能接受中国的缺点。

Love the peacefull atmosphere , no annoying "pranksters", no thugs, no ppl mocking ppl, no harrassments, no annoying drunk ppl, no crazy ppl, no addicts , etc.... find a western city with 20 mln. Ppl that peacefull....good luck . Lol

Chinese: _"Welcome to China!"_ Americans: _"Go back to China!"_

I used to go to China several times a year. It is the time for me to go back there. Thank you for updating the current condition of China.

You & Alex are so great! Really grateful for ambassadors like the two of you as well as other RU-vidrs who are spreading the truth about China rather than negative, slanderous propaganda about China. I discovered Cyrus’s channel at a time when all you see on RU-vid are negative & slanderous videos about China. It was such a breathe if fresh air & relief to see there are objective & clear headed people, especially more special when they are westerners, who are able to do these videos to show a different side of China that are not just propaganda & slander. I am very thankful for RU-vidrs & ambassadors of peace like yourselves!! Thank you & forever grateful! Continue this important & very much needed great work!

This is an awesome video. As a Canadian (originally from Croatia) this opened up my eyes in about China. When I read the Ottawa Citizen, the overwhelming amount of articles in regards to China is negative (propaganda and fear). If I was to do a similar video of downtown Ottawa (like Cyrus did), you would see drug addicts shooting up, people in a hurry, and a very limited amount of smiles on peoples faces. Definitely an eye opening video. Keep it up!

It's great have you back and tell the world the Chinese stories!

My last visit in Shanghai was 2018. I love China. I saw it on my own eyes how China has become so modern, I even ride the Maglev train. By July 2 my son will be in Beijing & Guangzhou for his campus & educational tour at Sun Yat Sen University for 2 weeks. He then will also witness his heritage and compare how Chinese people work hard. I am a oversea Chinese lived in the Philippines. I love your show Cyruss & Alex. My respect to both of you for telling the truth of my China motherland. Show the West how China worked hard to become superb.. God bless you two! More power!

May GOD bless both of you 🙏 China is so blessed and lucky to have two good unbiased people !

Cyrus, you do not owe Shanghai anything. Shanghai is pround to be played a big role in your life. Thank you so much for your voice. From a Shanghainess now lived in Toronto longer.

I am a Chinese and now live in Chongqing. I am very grateful to finally have a blogger who can truly show the real China to the world. Welcome to China 🇨🇳!

This video was very enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to more collab between you and Alex. 謝謝！

Between 2013 and 2021, China alone contributed more to world economic growth than the G7 combined. China = 38.6% Canada, France, UK, Germany, Japan and the U.S = 25.7%

Congrats Cyrus. Your Mandarin has improved 100%. You're no longer mis-toning your words. I guess coming back to China makes all the difference. Can't wait to get back myself.

Love China from Pakistan! 🇵🇰❤️🇨🇳

Welcome to China, I'm a Chinese, I feel touched after watching this video, finally someone is helping to publicize the real China, before this China had too many negative images in the West, in fact Chinese people are very friendly, our ideal is to want the world to have love and peace!

So nice to see the joy you guys have in your special walk. I stayed in China right through the pandemic, cared for by so many Chinese friends. Please keep taking the love and the understanding to the world. Thank you both. Dave.

Community unity! Yup, that's the essence of the Chinese people in China and the real strength of that ancient people and how they can survive for so long.

Hi Cyprus, Greeting from San Francisco. Thanks for sharing the real China. People needed to hear and see this.

I lived in rural America for the pandemic. I'll never forgive a huge segment of my fellow Americans for the callous disregard for other people's lives I witnessed during that time.

I grew up watching the BBC in the U.K. I was proud of the BBC. Now I’m living in Hong Kong. Having witnessed the social unrest and how that was reported, as well as misleading reports on China compared to what I’m seeing on the ground, I’m disgusted by how the BBC has turned out these days. It’s nothing more than pure propaganda.

It seems that anyone who visits China comes back a positively different person. Moral of the story: Everyone should visit China to see for themselves!

It is great to see both of you, Alex and Cyrus, in Shanghai!

Thanks for the "real" news from China,we need a different perspective from western media outlet. Keep up the good work.

I visited Shanghai in the summer of 2017 and my friend Shen who is a Shanghainese studied college at my hometown Nashville USA showed us around the modern city and we were fascinated by how beautiful and world class the city is. The food is always good, the people are very nice and friendly. This city should be a must visit on everybody’s bucket list. This video of yours brings back great memories. Thanks Cyrus and best wishes on your future project!

The world welcomes you to bring peace between the USA and the world. I have been following both of you since the lockdown, something for me to look forward to every morning during the lockdowns.

You guys are true ambassadors of world peace. Wish more people join your team!! 😊

Puxi is the old district. Pudong is the new district. Puxi 浦(Huangpu River) 西（west) means 「west of the Huangpu River). Pudong means the 「east of the Huangpu River). I was born in Guangzhou, China. We have the Pearl River 珠江 in Guangzhou. For us, we have the Henan 河南 (South of the Pearl River) district and Hebei 河北district (North of the Pearl River) similar to Pudong and Puxi districts. Pudong is the new district but cheaper than Puxi. Been to Shanghai many times, but I have yet to travel back to my own birthplace to truly visit the Canton Tower 廣州塔，nicknamed 「Little Slim Waist」 小蠻腰，and the new subway lines that now connect to Shunde 順德 , Foshan 佛山district, my paternal ancestral hometown, and also the ancestral hometown of Bruce Lee 李小龍 and Ip Man 葉問。

15:56 that interaction gives me chills, you guys are great, I've been a huge fan of the work Mr Cyrus has been doing promoting a healthy relationship between China and the Westworld. Here in the Dominican Republic our government has faced a lot of pressure from USA to block any major plan on invest from China and that really bothers me cause it affects directly our people and the overall growth of our country. Hope this can change in the future. Thank you guys. 👍🏼

You also don't see criminals robbing or threatening you on their trains like they do in NY, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, etc. The USA has ruined it's reputation by catering to criminals. China doesn't put up with that.

Alex has certainly makes me get more interested in Chongqing. Before that, I looked at Chongqing as just another city in China. Regards from Malaysia

China is Amazing!👍

It was a rare opportunity to have met you on this trip, best wishes my friend.

I've been in China for 10 years and I love it because I don't need a car. Life without a car in upstate NY is difficult.

I am grateful with China government to place people’s health as the first priority during pandemic over anything else. Human lives are the most valuable asset in humanity. 🙏🙏❤️

Thanks to both of you for bridging the West & the East.

USA Police of the world 🌎 for own benefits but China 🇨🇳 is Ambassadors of the world to provide peace.❤

Wow, great to see you two working together! Keep up the great work, all the very best!

man I am so proud of you, your Chinese is really good ngl bro!! I really appreciate what you've been doing for China, showing people the truth about Chinese people, cultures, and everything. keep doing what you doing man, we need people like you that can bring the cultural connection between the west side and the east side. I wish in the future there are lots of people who haven't been to China who can really hear what's going on in China. Much love from CN.

Only by coming to China can one truly understand China. Those unscrupulous media outlets won't tell you about the beautiful aspects of China

Welcome back to China. Thank you for your honest opinions about China. No country in the world is a perfect country, but China is heading in the right direction to improve the living standard of its citizens while at the same time giving a helping hand to underdeveloped nations.

Cyrus: I can't wait to travel to China again and visit all my favorite places IN CHINA. Also Cyrus: Hey we're in Seoul, South Korea.

Few of the positive and fair westerners who see CHINA differently...

I love China, but I love the people more.

Every person I've ever met from China says they fled for a reason. These guys are getting paid alot of money to say this

Shanghai is so beautiful and vibrant. Thank you gentlemen.

Indians are proud of china,because chinas are true to mother nature,may not be be our stupid govt but true indians love chinas devp

Visited Shanghai way back in 1989. Incredible what China has accomplished.

Great to see u guys collaborating live in China. Enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work!

I think Serpenta is telling a true story of China

Many Chinese warmly welcome Westerners to our lands as visitors. However, many Westerners (but not all) are increasing regarding Chinese in their lands as unwelcome.

Best two Ambassadors to China! Cheers from the USA.🙏👏👍💝💞💖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💕❤️💓❣️

Welcome coming back!!!! Love your videos.

I have been wait for this video coming since the day you landed in China, again you both are truly legends for telling world the truth about China, the fairness she deserves for long time, I can’t wait to move back home myself this summer for good, it is great to come to western countries to experience life and at the same time the life abroad teaches me that I should never take China for granted again, Cyrus, hope you have great time in China and hope this trip will bring you a lot more opportunities 😊

I've followed your channel since the plandemic and similar channels on China, my view about China has completely changed and no amount of negative propaganda on the MSM on China sways me anymore. I'm particularly impressed by how you and Alex showcased the truth about China without vilifying the West. I believe it serves the world better if we all live in peace. 🕊️

I miss the old weekly show where you, Daniel Dumbrill, Jayoe Nation and others would just simply talk about China. Seems like a lifetime ago.

Who would have thought back in Feb that this video with Cyrus and Alex (and Julia in the background) at the bund would be possible. China is back in business and the next phase upward has just begun. Exciting times ahead.

Great to see you back in Shanghai Cyrus. Enjoy!

Hey what a neat episode. I only just discovered the second RU-vid Alex they other day as i researched China for my up coming trip to beijing. As an expat Chinese twice removed since my grandparents left China in the 1930’s. Now as a full grown senior Chinese Canadian these videos are really warming knowing that there are those that wish to share the truth and light for global peace. Keep up the great work both of you guys! Peace! 🍻🔥🙏🏼

Hi Cyrus, it is so good to see you and Alex are in Shanghai- my hometown. I miss Shanghai so much, hope to visit next year. Thank you both for doing a wonderful job

Good job, Cyrus, a little bit history of the place you look at. It is The exact Place where it witnessed China's a hundred years humiliation. (Huang Pu Jiang Kou- or 黄浦江口 in Chinese). The river mouth saw Western Gun Boats and Japanese warship sailing through, and it saw the western nations carved many small nations/or concessions not far from that river bank, and it saw a sign with "Chinese and Dogs are not allowed" in front of those concessions. Not to hate no one, but to remind all Chinese that we will not let it happen again.

Congratulation Both with great wisdom With great honour from the world Be thruth in humanity God bless Both of U With health and properities Long live u both 🙏🙏🙏 👍👍👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I seriously hear the voices from within the both of you. How both of you wanted the entire west to see and feel China through your senses and lenses. It’s so touching, emotional and beautiful of your whole intention for sharing the truth and reality of China to the west that hasn’t visited China. May both of you be so blessed for sharing the truth to the world.

With American friends like Cyrus and Alex, it is very hard to dislike Americans.

Welcome our old friends home!❤

we love you both Cyrus , Alex ! you are a great hope for America and China ‘s peace ambassador ❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻

Look at places wow China 🇨🇳 the USA need. Take look at that. Stop the war and grow your country. Take care of your peoples

As a Chinese, I really enjoy your video. Thank you for telling the story of China.🥰

Have visited China several times for leisure. The Chinese people are hardworking friendly peace loving & free to do whatever (as long not against law). Their technology is also more advanced than many developed countries. Western media has been painting a negative story about China for a long time with much bias discrimination.

Is Good to see you back in China. Do tell us more of your travels , daily lives of the ordinary people , magnificent places and cities , their advance technology etc....that I can't find or read in the main stream western media. By the way, I am a Malaysian Chinese who does understand Mandarin .

Shanghai is so beautiful

Big difference is you guys and others there in Shanghai won’t be randomly and senselessly gunned down as it regularly happens in 🇺🇸

When I was the first time going to China it was friends have ivited me. I was sceptic bc of my image of China. Well it was 2005 and youtube hadnt Channels like yours so i had no Idea what I will meet there. I was so impressed how I was welcomed by the strangers in the streets. In Shanghai I wasnt able to read my booklet I got with historical chinese Textes my friend gave me (in English of course). All the students in the Parc were coming to talk with me. So China for me was love at the first view (or maybe feeling). I felt at home there. Since that time I was several times in different places in China but my Experiences always were the same. So you were right saying go to China see it yourself. I guess that would help a lot! I am so much hoping to be back as soon as possible. So many places are waiting for me to be explored.

Cyrus and Alex, thank you, let the truth be told unbias and real, pure and striaght forward, nothing more nothing less, keep going for the world to hear and see the truth, nothing but the whole truth.

yessss the boys are back. Loves from Brazil 🤌🏻💕

Thank you Cyrus, for helping the world better understand China.

Welcome back, Cyrus. FYI, 430km/h Maglev is avaiable in some time sections in a day. Not all trains reach upto 430. You can find the fastest options from the schedule list at ticket office.

Thanks! I'm tired of the BS, lies and war rhetoric from people here in the US. I was in China long ago and I know better. Shine the truth for the world to see. Thanks again.

For every vlogger reporting and recording YT on the grounds in China theirs are the true and realistic portrayals of what the people's social lives are like. Unlike what the US/western mainstream media would have us believe the people are happy and living normal lives like in the West. The West often claims that under CPC rule the people are oppressed, have no democracy or freedoms. In this regard the Chinese people indeed don't have the freedoms to be homeless, to own guns to kill others at will, to take drugs and become a social menace and to feel unsafe while out in open public spaces especially at night. Go figure.

Shanghai is beautiful. You two are fantastic!

Thank you Cyrus and Alex for promoting peace and balancing out all the negativity from mainstream media. ❤ your work.

Thanks mates for being ambassador of peace between two world super powers. Wish people in Australian gov is watching your channel as well!!

I enjoyed this video...but don't think the media minds anyone seeing this too much. China's urban centers have been developed for many years. Everyone knows that China's standard of living has been rising for decades. Our governments may be at each other's throats, but people are people everywhere. My last visit to China was back in 2014 (Xian, Shanghai, Beijing). Things looked about the same at that time. Well dressed, happy looking people enjoying themselves strolling through the cities. The tacit agreement in China between it's leaders and the populace is "you stay out of politics and we do what we think is right in providing you with a good life."

We Brazilians are looking forward to making more business and strengthening relations with China and Asia. 🇧🇷🤝🇨🇳🌏. Great to see the development of South economic countries 🤜🤛

It is great to see you Guys walking together in Shanghai. We are looking forward to visiting in 16 weeks time. The countdown has begun. It has been way too long since we last visited, and I can't wait to see how much it has changed. I have been watching both your RU-vid Channels grow for several years now. Keep up your good work 💯 Cheers from Australia 🦘🌏 ❤

We also have inflation around 10% in Russia but we are pretty much accustomed to it since 1990s, sometimes it's lower, sometimes it's hyper.. but nothing lethal

Real Income in China is going Up 4% a year. In the United States the prices are Up and the income is Down.

中国社会其实任然是一个及其分裂的社会，北京上海这些大城市是世界的名片，但是很多地方任然还是很穷。大多数人民和世界还是隔着一堵墙。整体上还是和西方国家有着巨大差距。如果我们的政府能够更加开放开明，也许世界会更加美好。

Made my comments to early. Great to see you and Alex were together at the bund!

I always believe truth will prevail. People are not stupid , the world is not blind. Thanks for the wonderful video !!! Cheers from S'pore 🍻

Thank you for sharing and showing the truth about China. I've actually learned a lot more about China from you two than any mainstream fake news media. And also for preaching peace and win-win solutions for working with China. 👍🙏
