How Has China Positively Changed Us?

[@ShanghaiGoat]

I'm six foot five tall, weigh 260 pounds with a full, long beard. I live in a third tier city as well, so rarely see other foreigners. When ever I go to the supermarket people will come up to my trolley and examine what I've put in there and children either run or find me fascinating. It no longer bothers me, indeed living in China has mellowed me out no end. You either sink or swim here.

[@mingtang6418]

hope you have a good time there

[@stormspirit9783]

make a video!

[@brianhaynes6718]

Which city do you live in?

[@PoTommyPo]

The "I'll Remember You" theme song for this channel fits so perfectly 👌👌👌 another great video, Winston and C-Milk

[@DANINJAPIGEON]

I am a Chinese born British citizen I watch their videos only because they travel around and video China reminding me how much I miss it. 10/10 times I would choose to live in China if still able.

[@imperialseal8155]

British born Chinese living in Shanghai now, and loving it :)

[@duanmcinnes]

Discovered ADVChina first and found individual channels from that. Amazing to me because I wasn't particularly interested in China until I discovered you guys. One of the few channels that i love watching and intrigues me with all the information on modern day China. I see it as giving hope to the future. thumbs up and keep the videos coming.

[@StefanBacon]

Oh my god Winston that's awesome. I live in Milwaukee (smaller city north of Chicago in the US if you haven't heard of it) and people do the emergency lane thing here with absolutely no shame. I've taken to your lane-splitting method for the past year or so and it has helped greatly. It's also really satisfying to just say no to those assholes. I haven't gone so far as to open my doors, but it's especially great when getting on the highway in rush hour, just selecting my rightful place in traffic and driving next to it until the lanes completely merge so that no one can ruin the traffic flow further for everyone by speeding ahead and forcing their way in at the last moment.

[@steves5346]

hey guys just dropping in to tell you both that my son also watches all your vids!! he mentioned you guys on sunday at a cookout and i said damn i watch them both also! small world...keep em coming .....

[@billygarrison6530]

How has China changed me? -- . I always carry toilet paper with me now.

[@owendebest4183]

have you mastered the squatting yet ?

[@mev3dvision481]

thatz good. they trained you to become independent, so that you don't rely on others for toilet paper. China has changed you into a better and responsible person. Use your own toilet paper, worry-free.

[@nanxingluo4902]

LOL

[@victoryang5634]

LMAO, but this is true..............

[@billygarrison6530]

never had a problem with squatting. I am not fat. But in America there are no squat toilets.

[@titonava541]

Bro I love your guys vibes together man it reminds me of me and my brother! Love your guys videos keep it up serpentZA and C-Milk!!

[@TheEhTeam04]

Another great video guys, keep on being awesome and informative, EH!

[@theartofcompetition5965]

i definitely see matts self confidence much higher in the newer videos more than the older videos

[@jotdown695]

as well as Japan, China also has a high sense of responsibility for their family members in later life. People would rather care for their parents than put them in an aged care facility. Here in the west, a lot of people would rather not put their parents into aged care, but circumstances can force that hand. China's very family orientated.

[@EdwardBerryy]

Its very refreshing that you guys are two normal human beings. Its hard to find genuine people on youtube now days.

[@starcontrol2]

yet another great video! please keep up the good work.

[@fje54]

I lived in Hong Kong for 6 years, and then Mainland China for 6 years. It definitely changed me, think for the better. Visiting a foreign country while on vacation is not the same as living and working there. If you get the chance to live in a foreign country for an extended period of time, I highly recommend it.

[@GenAfterNextTactics]

The "Skin off my back" part at 17:00 was the funniest shit lol! The part where you guys went back and forth saying to each other "that's weird" and C-Milk saying "I need it" had me dying for some reason. Not sure if it was meant to be funny or not, but it was to me.

[@barmalini]

Having lived for 15+ years in the Netherlands, It suffices to cross the border into Belgium to feel submerged into a completely different culture. And it takes me only one hour to get there on my bicycle.

[@alfarabi73]

This was quite thoughtful and balanced - especially in terms of the divergences in the social relations between the West and China.

[@mustafahusseinmakarov]

Every time i hear this song i remember youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu SerpenZA & C-Milk best of luck from the US.

[@monsterp1970]

Absolutely agree on the confidence, driving, and generosity issues!

[@jesspace4069]

great video! i love hearing your guys opinions and how things are different over there then in the west :D keep it up dudes!

[@mwmanwei]

I totally understand when C-milk was talking about self-confidence when being a foreigner in China. I believe all Chinese overseas students would agree with you as well. I think this is the biggest psychological change of all for those who lives in a foreign land.

[@bettyhuang9821]

Thank you for all your clips. I have learned so much about my Chinese culture.

[@XTCBiscuit]

Always interesting listening to your experiences guys. Thx for posting these kinds of frank vids

[@accountnumber90]

Thanks for the nice shout out for Alabama, Winston!

[@TraderPat]

bideo

[@bagdog5697]

accountnumber90 Sounds there are a lot of goodies in Alabama that we Chinese can share with .

[@accountnumber90]

If you like BBQ, there sure is!

[@bagdog5697]

accountnumber90 That is nice🌞.. I like bbq.. But frankly brother.. I knew there is a Alabama only because I watched the movie "Forrest Gump" " Jenny , you need go with me back to ALABAMA".... that is all my knowledge of your state...

[@dwightsmith4641]

I’ve been there numerous times riding my motorcycle across the state. Don’t wear orange during football season or eggs will be thrown at you. Crimson Tide guys stopped short when they saw my 1993 University Of Texas Jersey which luckily has the “hookem horns” logo on it. They stopped me and suggested that I either change my shirt or put my motorcycle jacket back on. Apparently, Texas is not on their hate list, but Tennessee is which also shares the color Orange.

[@changhaizhu7854]

I am an ethnic Chinese. I consider this video serious has great value. It provides an different prospective/view to current China & Chinese People. Actually I learnt a lot from these videos. Thank you for you great work, Winston & LaoWhy86. Whish you Guys the best staying in China !

[@kevinliang2204]

I am a chinese born with western education. In these days back in China, I get questioned by my mother about me getting 'westernised' and not caring about families. It actually made me sad but I have not found a way to sufficiently convince her. Any advice? And the lack of public trust thing, I think there s some tie to the lack of democracy here like Italy in the last century.

[@sebastianvanderberg726]

finally a (relatively) positive video! this is why i started watching ADV china, hope it stays like this and the "conquering northern china" is going well, hope "conquering western china" is next :)

[@mateoguevara2039]

blink twice if you need help

[@AzarroFineArts]

LMFAO

[@craigharrison1274]

Better call the White House, we need to prepare the nukes in case the CIA fail to extract the package.

[@derkamarad8431]

Laowhy got a lot of teachings from rabbi

[@Kev376]

LOL

[@Bunjamin27]

How can people NOT be subscribed to ADVChina, Winston, C-milk, and Prozzie?! Thanks for the video, guys :)

[@Kembread]

ThrobbinHood I'm addicted too.

[@Bunjamin27]

The guys make compelling, interesting, thought-provoking content and I've learned a lot about Chinese culture as a result. So what if Prozzie wears make up and C-milk walks downhill like a dildo.. and I'd say something about Winston, but he'd probably have me folded 12 times..

[@coisalinda2424]

I learning to love China,just because of your videos.

[@mikeknight42]

yeah my company has really helped me out with accommodation and getting fed .. there is no way i'd be a legal immigrant without them... I worked in Japan and it was sink or swim atmosphere and the entire country made me feel claustrophobic. I really hope Prozzie likes tiny working spaces(we are talking teaching offices the size of a closet back home)

[@imawatermelon1439]

China has influenced me to not be as judging and has made me in a weird way get away from my depression. And also helped me active my childhood dream. Have a kid. ❤

[@kengtsu]

I always come back with "Your fork skills are AMAZING!"

[@JB007SEXY]

You guys make a great team.;-)

[@Mopardude]

I am a ADV sub only mainly because i prefer the topical discussions, and the adventures you guys do, and the theme song is catchy too.

[@brendanmccreanor6817]

in Australia my work, social, family all involves Chinese. I have found your real Chinese experience and comments here in Australia. I visited your city in 1994 when it was a muddy paddock.

[@liltay]

Where's the notification squad!!

[@cristianfederico2411]

[@coisalinda2424]

Your honesty is captivating.

[@jocotti]

Good point, C milk. Keep him cool. Great stuff guys be safe.

[@Sabastianspreadworth]

Love you guys and love your choice in music. love your videos.

[@merinsan]

One of my friends here in Melbourne, originally from China, had her license in China. She considered herself a good driver. When she tried to get her license here, she failed 3 times because of her bad habits from China. Things like ignoring stop signs and cutting people off (typical in China). She now understands what it is to be a good driver.

[@chilling00000]

there is no stop sign in china...

[@maddumpling119]

Melbourne has the best drivers in AU. Here in Perth people drive like shit. I know it cus I moved from Mel.

[@fatpenguin2765]

merinsan man you are so right. I was with a female Asian friend while she was driving and another Asian driver cut her off so my friend lean out the window and yell "stupid Asian driver why you not know how drive!" I in a fit of laughter when my friend realise why I'm laughing turns and says "I know I know you can shut up now”😂

[@cougartpt793]

Well mr liu you know were f off to then

[@maddumpling119]

Here I see a person with a hurt butt

[@williamterry3177]

One thing that always amazed me in second tier cities like Fuzhou, that the crosswalks are ignored by the cars. I always loved messing with the cars. Keeping safe, but forcing the cars to stop when they are making a right turn at a traffic light. Billions of people and they do not force the cars to yield. I would be carrying a big shopping bag hold it out with my hand up in the stop signal. Not many drivers want to hit a pedestrian or worse yet a foreigner. Also they don't want their car scratched. Be careful, but satisfying watching their faces. The drivers think they are government officials that do not have to stop.

[@omicrontheta3894]

G’day Cobbers. New subscriber here. From Queensland Australia.

[@rockstariii5336]

Great video!. I'm subbed to both of you guys as well as ADVChina. I love all the informative content as well as learning how China really is from real people who live there as opposed to what graces main stream media. I have one question though.. You say when someone is injured or hurt to help them, how do you know that they're not out to scam you? Especially when You're a white foreigner? I believe there was a video where that was discussed. (Edit)Not to make it sound like everyone is going to be that way or to not be the good samaritan and lend a hand to those in need...

[@gus2747]

This was one of your best conversations. For one thing the duration was right.

[@FiscalRangersFlorida]

Great discussion, guys. Best quote - "In China everyone drives badly". I have been in Kabul, Afghanistan, Baghdad, Iraq, Saigon, Vietnam and Hongkong, and bad drivers are everywhere in third world countries. Cmilk has to reduce the hair fondling - gives image of narcicissism which seems to indicate he is more interested in his self image than sharing facts and info. Once, when I worked in Sydney, Australia for a software firm, they had a lot of Chinese who migrated to that office from the HK office (before the turnover to China) and they worked really hard and long vs the Australians who were lackadaisical and left at 5pm. I asked why they worked so hard and they said it was because they had no social security in China or backup and had to work every day just to survive. Every day was a survival situation to them. And, they wanted to get transferred to the US or Canadian offices.

[@johncostello5869]

The tshirt with the answers to all those questions sounds GREAT :)

[@SsiolisP]

Book a theater(s)/cinema(s) in China for your documentary. Give it an inspiring Chinese title, edit it in a Chinese version and play it in cinemas in China. Expense vs profit is up to you to look into on your own. Along with profit, if there is profit to be gained, you might also succeed in changing people's minds about your own selves (the domestic online haters), and foreigners in general.

[@williamdigiacomo8900]

nice vid..positive and helpful.

[@snarkyguy]

That little corner table looks tiny! Good stuff, guys.

[@coisalinda2424]

I admire you both. Keep up with good work, love for China, your wives and family

[@xbennypryde]

how has NYC changed me, I don't say "bless you" whenever someone sneezes anymore.

[@Steffanicus]

Lol C-milk the way you play with that food for the camera cracks me up.

[@jeromefaulle]

Great one, cheers !

[@MrSmoothie24]

I hired a driver to take me from Shenzhen to Kaiping and back in his private car (3.5 hours each way). To him, lane lines were just a suggestion on where to drive. He also had scrapes up and down both sides of his car...more scrapes than paint.

[@MrZzzjjj]

So fucking what? what hurt you? a young chinese visiting scholar was abducted by a white man driver in illinois a few days ago. Still missing and the police is doing nothing. at least you returned to your lifeless suburb safe and sound after visiting china.

[@redpanda416]

I got say this video is pretty accurate and unbiased.

[@6663000]

One of your best "stay awesome"s at the end.

[@altair4c]

Laowhy86 - ADVChina - serpentza I really enjoy your videos… I am hooked… great commentary on life in China. I first visited Hong Kong in 69 while on R&R and in my working life traveled all around the world for 25 years including revisiting HK (and many other cities in China) many times. Some on the scams are very familiar… HK tea, Saigon tea, Taipei tea, Tokyo tea and on and on. I figured that the girls had to make a living not being judgmental as I knew what the game was. BTW HK remains my favorite city… kinda reminded me of NY where I am from. And I almost didn’t go back to Danang after my R&R was up. Love the bikelogue’s…I went on 7000+ mile three-week cross-country trip (NY to California and back to NY in 74) on a 72 Triumph 650 Bonneville… and it was awesome… no hotels just camped in farm fields and pastures and visited two Vietnam buds. I noticed on one of your videos you noted that the license plate mounts had fractured on your bike… when I returned from my 74-cross-country trip all four corners had fractured on my plate. I was also stationed in Japan; living off base for two years… loved Japan but quickly realized that if you’re not Japanese you’ll never be Japanese. Doing business in China was easier (more direct) than Japan but found Korea a grind. I am now watching ConqueringSouthernChina on Amazon… Keep up the great work / continue continuing.

[@budyeddi5814]

Cheers from Alabama :)

[@unknownbintang]

Fantastic video!

[@FeelX87]

What me improved the most is to get into human character and try to read people mind. I also don’t take mistakes that seriously anymore, instead I learned how to fix it, rather than become angry and frustrated.

[@mandog1872]

you guys are so entertaining to watch man... :)

[@Samo1228]

Actually, Japan is also using squatting toilet in most of the old houses, and they still using public bath house in country side, it just a cultural thing. Every country has it's own cultural related behavior or custom some we like, some we don't.

[@chasq1]

Subscribed to all three !

[@mikebrennan7045]

I'm subbed to all 3. I found C-milk at like 25k subs in my recommend videos. He took me to ADV China and I subbed to Winston from there. C-milk was the first vlogger I subbed to. Winston was the last. I usally hate vlogs but I like you guys. I could see myself having a beer or 5 with you.

[@arentol99]

Good video. Really it's about ways China has changed them, not necessarily focused on just the positives. I can see why they went with the video title, though, given the recent issues they've been going through.

[@QLTD]

Interesting topic!

[@BradGryphonn]

I see a reason behind this one...nuff said.

[@TreeLBollingTreeMan]

So do I.... to keep from being deported perhaps?

[@mrtrappist7947]

Tree L. Bolling Can you really understand English? What they said basically is that China is full of scams, all Chinese cannot drive, Chinese are very selfish, Chinese have bad manners, Chinese have no good samaritan . Because these bad things made themselves more vigilant, self dependent, more tolerant to bad traffics, and chaotic environment. In addition, Winston realized that he is a much better person than Chinese, and he learned how keep being a noble person without taking bad influence from Chinese.... These are the old topics played over and over again in their channels. Today, they just repeated these craps with a little more additional nonsense.

[@mrtrappist7947]

Quix I am not denying the reality. Yes, these bad things indeed exist in China. Again as always what they did 1) generalization 2) exerggeration . Moreover, there are many positive things in China. I am sure some positive things influenced them positively. I just wonder why ADVCHINA has to be pure negative to China and Chinese. And how hard it is for them to say some real positive side of China?

[@mrtrappist7947]

Quix Is this because all their patrons are not Chinese. and their patrons like listening to the pure negative things about China?

[@novafawks]

Mr Trappist, I think they're really comparing and contrasting to how it is in America. I don't think they're being rude, even with ADVChina. I see where you're coming from, though, but you should be able to see that it's not intentional on their part, it's the comparison to how life is in America because that's where most of their viewers are. I don't necessarily see it as them disowning the country or whatever

[@harmonyforce6165]

The Deep South in the U.S. is different culturally. I grew up in Kansas and when I moved to Mississippi, I was so glad to get out of that state. One person said it was because I lived close to the interstate. That could be, but there is a lot of crookedness and deceit in Jackson.
