    Fun fact: London has the most CCTV in the world, but no one cares and the BBC doesn’t report it. CCTV can only be video recording. If a crime occurs, the police can solve the case through video recording. There are simply too many people in China. Only CCTV can deter crime. prices are low, life is convenient, Girls can go out late at night, which is a rare phenomenon in Europe.and everything you want is available. Chinese people can travel as they please and immigrate. People who don’t like China can immigrate to the UK at any time, but what’s interesting is that many Chinese students have returned from the UK because prices are too high, the weather is bad, and there are homeless people and graffiti everywhere.

    西方人談到中國的攝像頭,總會提到一個詞:監控。我在此說明一下,在中國,攝像頭最大的作用是記錄,而非監控。沒有人會坐在攝像頭的另一邊時時刻刻在盯著你看。你也沒啥好看的。而交警和公安攝像頭的作用幾乎是一樣的,最大的作用在發生了不好的事情,比如盜竊、搶劫、交通事故、遺失物品的時候、甚至在因為一些小事發生了口角的時候,能回溯到現場情況以方便更快的找到責任人或者確定是哪一方的責任以及通過人臉識別系統可以更快的抓到罪犯或者幫你找到你遺失的物品。 而交警的攝像頭會有一個相對更實用的功能,通過人工上傳一些事故車輛、盜搶車輛及駕駛人的一些信息(是否毒駕或者酒駕過)而這些車輛在經過屬於交警的攝像頭的時候,在後台會報警,以提示指揮中心的人通知路面的交警及時進行處置。 不用擔心中國的攝像頭,如果你遵紀守法,這些攝像頭不會對你的生活造成任何影響。 而通過斯諾登的故事可以告訴我們誰在監控、誰在監聽。

    I am not a bad guy, I like the camera make our life safer😊
  • @liqingyuan4940
    As a Chinese, I have some issues to discuss with Western friends about personal privacy. In private places, privacy is unquestionable, such as at home. However, if we enter public places, such as buses or intersections, shouldn’t public safety be more important than private issues? To be honest, I really find it hard to understand why Westerners are so afraid of cameras? Would you do anything embarrassing in public?

    That's the beauty of China, the safest Country on the planet 🇨🇳👍

    I have finished watching the video and would like to share my opinion: China is extremely safe. In my experience and memory, only 20 years ago, China's public security situation was poor, but in the past 10 years, China's public security situation has been extremely good. As long as anyone observes public security cases on Chinese social media, you will find that almost all of them are very minor crimes. Even very minor crimes can become a topic of heated discussion, which proves that China is extremely safe. Any child or woman can go out alone at 3 am without any harassment or physical harm. In the past decade, I have not heard anyone complain about being robbed or mugged. There is also the issue of surveillance cameras. There is no one behind the camera watching you, but recording. It is used to trace crimes that have occurred and deter potential bad guys. If a good person acts in a public place, he does not need to worry. From a technical perspective, China is a superpower with a population of 1.4 billion. Does it need another 1.4 billion people to monitor? This is obviously absurd. Almost all Chinese people like public surveillance equipment because it can bring security and freedom. And the bad guys are most afraid of this. Some people have mentioned the issue of democracy in China. I would like to say two most important questions: "What is the fundamental purpose of democracy?" and "Is there only one path to achieve democracy?". Democracy is about realizing dreams and having a bright future for all people. Democracy is people-oriented, and people are the most important. People have the right to development and the right to realize their dreams, and they need fairness. In China, children from an ordinary poor family can change their class through hard work and realize their dreams. Everyone lives safely in society and family, without worrying about being hurt. This is the democracy I imagine. 2. Is there only one path to democracy? Of course not. China has its own development direction and a distinctive national path to achieve it. We have the right to choose. But all of this has been denigrated. In short: the Chinese people are returning to the peak position of history, returning to the role it should have been, and no one can stop them, they are fearless.

    Most dangerous place in China: night market. All your money in pocket is gone and you bring more than 10 pounds fat in your stomach to home. 😂😂😂
  • @Quinn20236
    China is so huge that traveling here will make you feel that time is never enough.
  • @jascforfun7576
    You are literally promoting world peace by showing the world the true China. Thank you for your service!

    22:12 , I'm from Canada, my elderly parents in their 80s went to McDonlads for their coffee, my mother forgot her purse when leaving. They went back as fast as possible, this is time span of just little over 5 minutes. The purse was there, but all the money was gone. They suspect the triplet of folks who was close by since there were barely anyone there. It's situation like this, that I find myself defending what I've seen how safe all the vloggers who traveled to China have experience, guess what, no one believes me, because they believe in our news and social media feed
  • @sparklyshou6871
    It's interesting how Western media often portrays China as a country plagued by poverty, danger, scams, and unfriendliness. In contrast, many Chinese people perceive Western countries as having a high standard of living, which is why Chinese companies may use Western models to promote their products. When I first traveled to the UK to study abroad as a young person, I was excited and had high expectations. However, after a few days, I found the reality to be quite different from what I had imagined. There were many homeless people on the streets, graffiti and litter, and my UK friends advised me to be very cautious about using my phone at night due to safety concerns. It's true that China is not a democratic country, but the Communist Party has made progress in improving the living standards of Chinese citizens. I remember 30 years ago, when I returned to China, there were many beggars on the streets, and issues like robbery and kidnapping were real concerns. But China has since undergone a remarkable transformation, becoming even more modern than Hong Kong in many ways. Lifting 1.4 billion people out of poverty is an immense achievement.
  • @terencetong4896
    I would like to have the government to have more cameras. Imagine your kids get kidnapped and no one catch them .
  • @cheungchingtong
    Don't wanna talk big here, just share a story back in my hometown, a tier 5 city in China, there was one traffic accident happened two or three years ago on a crossroad, one old lady got hit and hurt by a car at night, that car ran away from the site immediately and the police failed to track him down in one day, took them three days to find the driver, some citizens were really mad at it because the city government did not set high-resolution CCTVs on that crossroad, without newest camera, the plate of that car were too blurred to see, so the government had to replace those CCTVs in days. That's how Chinese people view on public security cameras.
  • @dfwwlin1201
    I believe that foreigners have a misunderstanding of the surveillance camera, assume that someone will sit in front of the screen and watch you. In fact, no one is watching at all, it is just recording. and It is a great chance will be overwrite by new capture.

    Shared bicycles are very cheap, and a monthly subscription only costs a few to more than ten yuan. After getting off the subway, I will rent a bicycle or two and ride home.
  • @dearpope
    The first of the three foods you eat is gluten, a pure protein left over from separating the starch from the wheat flour, the second is starch sausage, which has no pork in it, and the third is fish tofu, which is made from a mixture of fish and starch.

    Keep up the great work guys! Truth has no enemies only friends
  • @JohnnysCafe_
    Well done to both of you showing people China from the streets, interacting with the ordenary people, just watching your videos dispels so much of the Western medias anti China narrative. In the West we have cameras always watching us too, in every shop, store, mall, on streets, on peoples front door, car dashcams and we are even photographed by the traffic cameras, i think most in the West don't realise how many cameras are around them. I hope your time there continues to be so enjoyable👍
  • @wkzj-po8on
    The barbecue you bought, two are soy products, one we call mianjin, one we call fish tofu, and the sausage is starchy sausage.
