Haha, been following your China trip closely. As someone who has been living and DJing in South China for 16 years now, I need to tell you that EVERYTHING you are experiencing is 100% normal here lol. Take it all in and enjoy because this country is totally unique from any other place in the world. I really can't believe that they just let you fend for yourselves at the train station though hehe. And last minute decisions from the authorities when they start getting super worried about crowd sizes is also normal. That creates massive pressure on the promoter who, in turn, pushes you to keep it tame. Technically speaking, every playlist performed in China must be approved in advance (with lyrics written out), but in practice I've never seen this enforced.

Just to clarify, reason why you can't access google and KZbin etc, is that those american companies do not agree to obey Chinese law when operating in China, that's why they got kicked out. But trying to ban or force sell tictok is another whole new level as tictok follows all rules and laws americans asked for

[@qiaofengqi7620]

👍 a small correction if I may, they didn’t got kicked out, they decided not to operate in China when China asked them to comply with China’s regulations.

[@block3880]

Not exactly correct. The earliest cause was Baidu's vicious competition as a Chinese Internet company. At that time, Baidu used google to search some technologies or methods to search violent and bloody pornographic content through frequently. In the end, Google’s search recommendations in China were filled with violent, bloody and pornographic content. Baidu's ultimate goal is to achieve commercial competition by use political means, which is caused gov mistakenly believe that Google deliberately harms the physical and mental health of Chinese people. After that, GOV found a non-targeted reason, such as not agree to obey Chinese law, and banned Google.

[@naiyomotion]

Interesting. What are the regulations they refuse to comply with? It's surprising that they would give up such a huge market - corporations will usually say up is down if it means they can earn money. I'd love to know what made them decide to give up on chasing China profits.

[@qiaofengqi7620]

@@naiyomotion in a nutshell, China asked for “China’s data stays in China”. Ticktock did that, operating separately in the US and in China, having server in the US, accepting supervision from the government to show that they didn’t leak any data. Anyway I think China is doing the right thing, remember Edward Snowdon? They decided to stop operating means they cannot make sure they can keep China’s data in China?

I bet the oganizers, especially in a small city like Hefei, probably don't understand English and the culture behond the language.

Regarding the VAC music festival, I want to clarify a few things. As a fan of James Hype, I was thrilled that he could perform in China. We prepared various flags and banners, but on the day of the event, all the rules changed: Alcohol sales were prohibited, flags were not allowed, and there were even incidents of security using excessive force. The organizers were just as shocked and angry as we were. Despite the rain, all the ravers came to enjoy the music and celebrate the May Day holiday. Since I was at the event, I can tell you that the atmosphere was fantastic. Almost no one was standing still; everyone was immersed in the music. From the start, I was shouting James Hype b**ch and singing along until the end. I hope you can come back to China soon!! We are very grateful for the music and energy you brought us!!

Rather, it's some moral defenders who might see your performance. They would then make the organizers extremely, extremely embarrassed. This is also one of China's forms of political correctness. You don't need to worry about getting into trouble; it's the organizers who are worried about getting into trouble.

Welcome to Hefei, I hope that next year's festival will be bigger, with more people, a cooler stage and a better experience。 It was not an easy task for Hefei to hold such a large-scale electronic music festival for the first time.Too many new attempts, as well as the concerns of the authorities, have led to the organizers facing various constraints, so that this feast of electronic music in the rain does not seem to be as free-spirited as imagined. This is not just a problem in Hefei, but also in China, where only a small number of young people can get involved in the turbulent Western culture. But thanks to its large population base, even electronic music festivals, which are not mainstream in China, can attract a huge number of fans. Many cities in China are trying to enhance their influence and cultural heritage by holding various cultural events, such as music festivals, electronic music festivals, and rock events. Hefei, as an emerging city with scientific and technological innovation as the starting point, is also making such attempts after having a large youth population.

You only need to activate the roaming feature provided by your mobile network operator, and you won't need a VPN. You can directly access the internet. However, please note that you must use your own mobile data and cannot use Wi-Fi.

[@suhdayted]

That grocery scene where James is asking "What's this" reminds me of that scene in Borat where he's asking the supervisor about every single product one by one😂

A soy egg is a type of egg in Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, and Mauritian cuisine which is boiled, peeled, and then cooked in a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, water, and other optional herbs and spices.

[@rickace132]

Oh hey, Hefei China. I know that place, it has a huge man made lake with an artificial beach. I like that area.

[@YueZ-k3k]

Music festivals in China have always had a lot of rules, although I don't like too many restrictions, 😢but your performance saved all🎉

[@jyoon0128]

[@SchengW]

Another tip for using western apps without VPN in China: buy an esim card before you went to China, you have full access of youtube google and so on when you roaming there

[@vincenty5677]

I’m the boy asked for photos at the hotel didn’t realize you’re complaining about this shxt tho😂😂😅

[@j123-x2r]

China is what you will call a "liberal dictatorship". I'm Chinese and lived there since I was born, and thats exactly how I would categorise it. A country with barely any political freedom, but really a lot of day-to-day freedoms. A lot of things you can do in China, you can't do in the west. Also, Chinese laws are much more lenient in many areas as well.

[@dp0625]

They asked you to calm down Because if you don't calm down, the audience will become increasingly agitated, and with so many people around, it will be difficult for the police to manage any issues that arise. Chinese police are different from those in Europe and the United States; they do not carry guns or stun batons. No matter how chaotic the situation becomes, the police have to handle it with their own bodies.

[@Inyayo]

we dont need another travis scott incident

[@patspice5520]

I felt the same way when i was traveling in Japan, 90% of the people didn't speak English and 95% of their restaurants had no English menu except for those in the hotels. So what do i do? I learned Japanese. Problem solved! May be you guys can learn some Mandarin before your tour. Just like how we learn English so that we can at least communicate when we travel to UK or US! 😂😂😂😂

[@johntse8655]

since when is VPN illegal? many foreign youtubers openly advertising VPN services all the time.

[@scan4332]

Technically you are supposed to have a permit. Pretty much every academic, expat, business and multinational have one. But interestingly the government stance here is if you are smart enough to use a VPN you are smart enough to face the world. This is why there are 350 million people with VPNs and you don't see people getting shut down unless they are doing illegal stuff. Tourists roaming also don't face any restrictions. This is why young people here are incredibly smart and actually know a lot more about the world than we think. If you think about it if the government wanted to control everyone they would prevent them from travelling yet Chinese tourists are the biggest group globally by a mile.

[@xinfuxia3809]

The no swear rule is indeed vague. When the rules are up to interpretation, just don’t go too far overboard. Especially no sexually explicit swear phrase. Like you can’t shout the F-word excessively. But if you just bleed out occasionally, they might ignore it.

[@xima930]

I hate the smoke in the club either

[@Tommywanaka]

Yes the cigarette smoking here in China is next level. Even at home in my apartment, I smell it wafting in with the breeze. A massive country collectively accelerating towards chronic disease. They don't know better; there's hardly any education on the effects of smoking.

[@ryanboutr7756]

I'm jealous of your life....keep up the good work brother!!

[@timdmx512]

glad you had fun. been here since 1996 been wild.

[@paulfranklin2542]

This video is fantastic - thank you!!!

[@zecuz7890]

What you need to know when you come to China: Safety and stability always come first

[@zecuz7890]

Civilization is one of China's political correctness

[@nickgray1753]

Maybe the most fascinating of all the Moving Differently episodes: especially given what you all experienced!

[@Jaypch]

As a Chinese local I think it’s not convenient for foreign tourists in many places

[@LAskeHosting]

Next time they should book james static not james hype 🤣🤣 if they want you to not jump around 🤣🤣

[@benzi_VII]

3:49 Je....... it's reall burning my blood

[@yangkevin3152]

we use vpn to listen your music and check info outside of China

[@jh1006-t9u]

if you stay in place like Shenzhen where your hotel close to Macau, the hotel WIFI you connected might be from Macau then the KZbin will work. However only in that hotel.

[@holytrap8530]

Thank you for your team's objective evaluation

[@DEEJAYVAX]

so funny to see your vlog, so refreshing

[@djgaiolobato2692]

Lets go Dj James hype 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@LL-ls8es]

Not jumping is to prevent the crowd from jumping with you, and possibly starting a stampedes. Crowd control and security issue

[@mrmarcellos]

Thanks for the video, liked it a lot! Wondering where the yellow cdj was.. Mr Marcellos
