New must watch video: “China shocked me in Chengdu!” czcams.com/video/TGqDuHnncRM/video.html
the one you ate at the end of the video is pig feet, that is why it comes with bone. btw, it is normal to have hotpot even if you have no friend join with you, haha, I have hotpot alone in restaurant or home sometimes
I'm convinced there's about a dozen of you people on CZcams that say the same things, have the same formats and do the same things in your videos. You all are definitely paid by CCP.
I don’t know why the world has so much hatred towards China. I’m Chinese from China and I love my country. I want to contribute to the society to continue making it a better place. Just let the haters hate, many of our Chinese will continue working harder to improve our life and our country.
jealousy.. because most overseas chinese are doing better than locals... and then there's also american propaganda around the world about how evil chinese is. sometimes, they almost describe chinese as same "animal"... but they are very smart. they always use "chinese(hanjian)" to spread their propaganda.
Probably because China is doing so much better than other country. I am a Filipino and if ever i will go to other country as a tourist, China is probably my no.1 place to go to. Even for business purposes also❤❤ Asian ❤️❤️
your county bullies its neighbors in the south china sea, that's why.
Because western and allies jealous and fear China will overtake their economy. Ignore them and keep developing. Jiayou 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳💪💪💪
@@xmb6793 yes, if you look at the overseas media, they exclusively hire people from Taiwan or of Taiwan origin ( also some from HK) for China related topics, as you described those Hanjian, 汉奸走狗卖国贼， those traitors trying so hard to ass kiss the USA and japan, and try every possible way to bash China. Using western narratives to create a propaganda for their people, twisted, biased, demonized, far from the truth, report news about China. USA hate every country who became the world number 2, because it is a threat to its position as world number 1. Look at Soviet Union and also later on Japan when they reached the no. 2 position, just figure what USA did to weaken their power, those no.2 diminishing thereafter. China now is facing the same difficult situation as no.2 because no.2 normally has very shaky fate because of the USA intervene
I am an American living in Sicily. I have learned that over the last 30 years or so, the Chinese government has brought over 800M Chinese out of poverty! It looks clean, happy, and amazing! Thanks for sharing ❤
Really? I am Chinese and I also want to live in Sicily. But I heard that some areas may not be very safe, is it true?
@@kimyung8787 much better than the US, because in the US when you anger someone you can get a bullet in the head 💀
40 years more of.
But should not also missed out the contributions of series of five-year economic plans from the 1950s under Mao Zedong and later Deng Xiaoping in laying the foundation in building up industrial and technological capacities.
There are lots of readings and discussions on social media about this for YEARS
@@kimyung8787 are you born in China? Probably you are from Taiwan or Hong Kong lazy people 😊
百闻不如一见。Most of what you heard from mainstream media of the West about China are fake. Welcome to China and see for yourself.
That’s why I am moving home this year after living in Europe for 9 years, China is not perfect but it is definitely one of the most safe, modern and beautiful country to live, it is very harmonious society with hard working people, I love my country, hope you have great time there 🫶🏼

@@royalsd same, sometimes you need to see things with your own eyes to know it for what it truly is
中国文化里有一句话是这么说的：读万卷书，不如行万里路。欢迎您来中国走一走，看一看🎉
中国人是拿来主义者，什么有用就借鉴来自己使用，所以不受西方宗教，政体形式影响，集中力量办大事，这也是中国能快速发展的重要原因
After 1978, China actually returned to Confucian collectivism. (Please pay attention to the attitude of Lee Kuan Yew in Singapore)
After that, the Chinese government declared itself a Leninist while suppressing Leninists and Western liberals.
However, from the attitude of Lee Kuan Yew , we can know that China is a Confucian collectivist country.

@@MichelePonte Who doesn't love Feta cheese my friend! I will do it ASAP 🇬🇷😁
@伪娘薇薇 That's why I love and admire China and it's people! China is building a bridge among people with investments, instead destruction like USA!
Greece really needs to focus on marketing to China. Most people in China know greek yogurt, olive products, honey products and so on... But which brand? So i think these industries should learn more from the 'tourism of Santorini', which made itself successfully branded as an excellent impression of Greece for Chinese people.
potentially, Greece has this capacity to make its products more well known in Chinese market, because i still remember that around 2005 and later folli follie had still been a niche that somehow kind of famous among certain comsumers. Plus, aside these business things, Greece pertains a level of affinity in our society thanks to its ancient culture and philosophy, which makes things related to Greece easier to be accepted by the mass...even though I am also seeing the trend that turkey is getting more and more popular in daily topics
@@Fizzing-Amperage I agree that Greece should focus on marketing its products to China. Greek yogurt, olive products, and honey products are already well-known there. Greece can learn from Santorini's successful tourism branding to make its products more recognizable in the Chinese market. The country's ancient culture and philosophy also create affinity, making Greek-related things easier to be accepted by the masses. While Turkey is becoming popular, Greece can leverage its unique offerings to stand out. By investing in strategic marketing and emphasizing its strengths, Greece can tap into the vast potential of the Chinese market.
Doing well brother. Keep them coming. Amazing vlogs in China 👌
Thanks a lot!
@@MichelePonte u wellcome
Best city! Best country! I saw real Chinese streets, very clean, no cigarette butts. International brands are everywhere and people are dressed in fashion. Not the evil communists portrayed in the western media. Italy I heard that there are many thieves on the streets.
It does not look it is how you portraits the matter, no travel vlogs have such comments except the ones from China and Russia.
When people feels like that, they have something to hide.
LOL， it a big joke that u heard there are alot of thieves on the streets. In fact , i need to tell u, the thieves already lost their job long time ago. Coz china people no more using cash for long time , every transactions r cashless... wake up!
你提到意大利小偷😂我想起看过的一个新闻采访，意大利政府为了吸引更多的中国游客在意大利旅游消费，和中国签署了警务合作协议，两国交换警察😂在意大利旅游区会有中国警察和意大利警察一起巡逻，方便语言不通的中国游客获得更好的旅游体验。
新闻采访里对在两国的警察都做了访谈，在意大利的中国警察说工作很累😂（我想是小偷太多，游客求助也多造成的），在中国的意大利警察呢，因为中国风景区没有小偷，也没多少意大利游客，那些警察高兴的享受自己的旅游生活，他们自己也成为景区的风景😂很多中国游客找他们合影留念，很多游客还送他们吃的喝的😂

I enjoy your sense of humor. Welcome to China. Make sure you learn some Chinese, don’t just get by with your English. I left China 30 years ago when it was a poor poor country, then I went back in 2015. It blew my mind. I’ve been to Europe and Japan and I’m an American, none of them is even close to China when it comes to how much money there is in the open. It’s crazy. I envy you.
So come back and make more money :P

I am from Chongqing, I lived in US, Europe and came back 10 years ago, I'm still bedazzled by the amount of information and things around in the city :D
Oh the anti-China propagandists will surely say that you are the very very minority of the people there who are enjoying life in China. The rest of the Chinese people, they claim or are trying to brainwash the west, are living in poverty, oppressed, have no freedom whatsoever and are so hungry that they have to eat grass and the barks of trees just to survive. The yankees generally can't accept the facts that maybe, just maybe, the Chinese are having a better life than them. 😅
他们还是一直在摸黑中国吧？说中国是没有人权的国家。也只有黑这一点了，因为他们无奈啊，这就是没有主权国家的悲哀

Hey Michele, Thanks for showing China in a positive light. There are too much negativity and propaganda circulating globally about China, and your slice of life in the country offers a different perspective. Best of luck to you and I wish you all the best.
This is not a positive light, this is just me being honest 🙂

The United States is afraid that China will challenge its hegemony in the world, so it uses its international discourse power to spread rumors to discredit China and mislead people all over the world.
I love China. The people are so kind and respectful. They are just curious about people from abroad and will become your friends to know more about you. They really know how to spread love and peace.

It's NOT only Italy that is falling , it's the whole Europe . And we can thank our leaders for that who want to spend all the money on LNG from US and on the US military .. We in Sweden had it okay for a couple of years but now we are quickly falling like the rest of Europe.. It will get worse , much more worse in the coming years.. We need new leaders in Europe , who stand for the people and growth not leaders who sells out whole European industry to US and spend all the money on US. We need to be friends with China and RU .
You are one of the very few in the west who has this political view. Most people have been brainwashed by the US and they all think China is the second coming of Nazi Germany.
@甲賽 The European leaders we got now in Europe are not even politics, they come directly from Banking and billion dollar industries. They have no experience in politics at all, the are all bought by US billionaires. Thats what I think.
US are fully in control of EU and UK. Just think about the PIPE LINE , that US blow up, Germany and other European countries knows it but says nothing..EU and UK leaders serve only US elites and the US military industry..
I will start to look east, and will do what I can to move to China. Tired of all the crap here in Europe.. all the lies and all problems .
China is the future and Russia .
欧洲需在政治、军事上独立，成为美国、中国以外的另一极。
Your media and politicians have been deceiving the public. They portray China as an evil country and your government and the United States are on the side of justice. Any politician who tells the truth and objectively describes China will be kicked out by the deceived people. Now you need to convey the truth, let more people know that they have been deceived, so that the country can reverse the downward trend and develop in the right direction

Dear Michele,
Thank you for your positive portrayal of Chongqing. I lived there myself for many years and I am glad you liked it.
I wouldn't say that every corner is filled with big luxury brand stores, though. If you travel away from the pedestrian shopping areas you will actually see what I think is an even more beautiful side of Chongqing, with more traditional style houses, little parks and temples. Ciqikou does a nice approximation, but is still very commercialized, but try and go to Jiaochangkou, 重庆市渝中区朝东路 you'll find some of the most hard working bang bang men around. near Lianglukou station you'll find massive staircases near 皇冠大扶梯, and finally if you take a walk along the stairs to 格萨藏宴·烤肉(南滨路店) you'll find an amazing view, and some great food at the top. A very authentic Chognqing experience that I can definitely recommend.
I hope you had/have fun!

I have been to China and to many other countries. I have to say Chinese cities are very much developed and clean. Very few homeless people, druggies and people asking you for money. They are definitely more civilized than many European and American cities.
I do agree, but it’s easy to be more developed than the current USA where 25% of the population is poor and there is almost no infrastructure for public transport and nobody can afford hospital bills

In fact Chongqing is not usually seen as a rich area in China.
Chongqing is one of the four municipalities directly governed by the central government, the four are Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, and Chongqing. I don’t think it’s not rich, maybe compared with Beijing and Shanghai, but it’s one of the top ten cities in China in terms of economy.

I had to admit, the countryside of EU is breathtaking, so beautiful, the view, and it's extremely clean. BUT.... if we are talking about cities, I have to say, cities in China are much much cleaner and safer than east Europe.
Hi Yuki, thank you for your comment. Germany and Amsterdam are central EU, they are not in the East :)
I hope you loved Kraków, my mom is Polish
Cities in Asia are generally newer and cleaner, so do airports and other infrastructures.
China is on a different level all together. Very inspiring for the rest of world. Except for the US of course.
I remember touring Shanghai, Shenzen and Beijing a couple years ago. Basically Chinese cities are exactly how we pictured the future would look like, as children.
Hi Michele, this city is definitely not poor, yes I can see through your video that everything is so alive, the colors, the streets and malls, really cool places and I think 900 dollars is a good sale because everything in local places is so cheap and affordable. Thank you for sharing the unique city of China that I enjoyed watching. 🙏🙏💪💪
Thank you so much Faisal 🙏
Michele I messed up again with my youtube page, so as you can see i have this page with my full name. Thanks to you Michele 🙂
So interesting to see an Italian travel around China and introduce China in English 😊😊
Thank you Terry. Is that with English I can interact with more people, and also reach a bigger audience:)
@@MichelePonteMama Mia, I know English has much wider audience but you should consider an Italian channel targeting Italians.
Amazing!❤️👍
Thank you Sarah
Chinas pretty dope. I’ve been visiting here and there for the last ten years. It has evolved so much and continuing to surprise in good ways. Hoping to be back soon!
Your work is appreciated and needed
Thank you for showing the real street view of China, man. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
I just love the honest way of you showing what real China is..as compared to those tainted western MSM and haters . The last time I was in Beijing was in 96 . It was day and night when I look at those videos what Beijing it is now . Those people who keep telling themselves that Chinese government is horrible to their people and an authoritarian regime ...this kind kind of comment always makes me laugh.
Great vlog as always 👍
Thank you Denis!
@@MichelePonte welcome 🙏🙏 🙏
The ability to display a RMB130,000, or $21,000++ watch at the outer window without it stolen is a statement in itself
Yes!
it really depends on the demographics, China's population is all Chinese and the state itself is firstly for the Han Chinese people. if you live in multicultural city then you are cursed by your leaders and of course you find such problems.
Chinese have only around $10,000 average income. it is because of the reasons I say above that we see happy society in this video
这不是正常的吗？
robbery is a felony in china, and armed robbery may be punishable by death
Thank you for making such an interesting video about China.👍
Thank you for watching Richard!
By 2025 China will be #1 luxury market in the world.
Yes, and if they continue like this they would be number 1 on that list for a long time!
China has already been #1 luxury market in the world for many years.
In fact, China became the world's number one luxury market 10 years ago.
@@MichelePonte British Centre for Economics and Business Research says China will be the world's #1 GDP by 2030, I would say they will hold on to the title of most luxury sold for probably forever.
@@jzeng2022 I go by PwC: China is at 22% share right now but will be 25% in less than 2years.
Thanks Michelle for showing us that beautiful city ❤
Love the video brother. I’m currently learning mandarin and hope to visit China soon.
Have fun!
Amazing! I think I’m going to China next month. Really looking forward to it
I'm a Chinese in Chongqing. Thank you for showing my city to more people
Bu ko qi
Hello Michele chonqing looks like amazing place.😊
Thank you Kimberly
Actually every city in China looks the same, very modern. They are really advanced way more than cities in the western countries. I live in Canada, here cities looks like rural village.
The culture of Chinese to smother other countries while praising their own …you guys are very defensive and it’s alarming
Love your video from Finland❤️
Thanks for your positive and optimistic video which shows us the reality🎉
Thank you for watching 🙂
@Luca&Rachele 路卡和瑞丽 Your fellow Italian, she is in Changsha with her father, and she is expected to come back to Chongqing, so you can communicate with her.
Good show, Michele. Much appreciated!
Thank you for sharing your experience, in western countries and North America, all we see and hear about china is bad and everything is negative, completely different from here, thank you
I know, it's shocking!
Beautiful places, thanks for showing us ✌️

I. Loving your latest content my guy.. and the views and subscription growing like wild fire.
Thanks for spreading the positive energy! We need more of this. I'd say every country is unique, with good and bad. We keep an open mind and try to live a positive life. Cheers!
Thank you
i just finished my trip in chongqing. the food that you picked in the end is the pig feet, which is supposed to contain a lot of nutrition and can improve your skin.
