Is What We Do Illegal in China?

[@n5017858]

In Taiwan at 101, in the shopping mall at the bottom, is a set of glass lifts. My sister in law was squeezed against the glass as a large group of PRC Nationals packed the lift. Door wouldn’t close due to weight. She mumbled and complained and found her way out, stepped into the adjacent glass lift (alone) and waved to the lift full of Chinese as her lift took her up

[@shiroikoi93]

I'm a new subscriber of your channels. I really enjoy your contents, the objective commentary, the humour and this innovative presentation of your contents. Kudos to both of you and stay awesome!!!

[@msoda8516]

This is one of the few channels my 13 year old daughter and I enjoy watching together. It has also caused her to think about learning mandarin as a foreign language choice in 8th grade.

[@ieb994]

So, was it legal?

[@inthefade]

Yeah I'm wondering if the answer was coded in there somewhere. ..

[@mayainverse9429]

youtube needs to stop wasting time banning hate speech and start banning click bait.

[@jerricroft937]

Mana Montana brilliant, makes sense

[@vijitkothari6502]

Exactly the same question came to my mind. I thought was it me who missed the answer. Seems they also kind of forgot to answer, and it is logical if you think for a moment what their all the videos are; just random films without any theme and just end up showing some of China and same with this video they started with this question but ended up talking about China.

[@smithmendonsa922]

Why do they have to do this???

[@analogdistortion]

The audio is great on your videos so thank you for taking the effort for that!

[@stormstereo]

That song never gets old. The perfect soundtrack to your channel!

[@stavros5173]

I'm so addicted to your "channels". Just got to your videos randomly 2 weeks ago and can't stop watching them. Keep it up guys !

[@MrNatantantan]

Unless I missed it, you guys didn't talk about legalities of starting a talkshow in China.... Why the clickbait :'(

[@mirozen_]

They put the actual answer in the description text... "We're not entirely sure, but we tell you how we made the channel anyway." I wish they had added this statement to the beginning of the video itself, but at least it's in the description area.

[@sapphirecamui6447]

The big deal is that people HATE clickbait. videos can be flagged for clickbaiting. the answer should have been in the video, not in its description, because i for one, rarely check the stupid description box. im sure im not the only one.

[@mirozen_]

+Sapphire Caui - I can't say I disagree with you. I hope they take the comments to heart and not do it again.

[@consaka1]

Problem is KZbin rewards click-baiting. KZbin is the reason people do this. Not just on this channel either. Nearly all of the channels I watch do and many have talked about the reasons they have to do it as well.

[@Moksha-Raver]

I'm waiting for them to use "One Weird Secret" in the their video titles.

[@ReticulatingSplines_]

You riding the motorcycles is what got me into all of your other channels.

[@oskardelitz5651]

NebraskaChick same

[@dishboy14]

Same here, great format! Stay Awesome!

[@TragicDestiny82]

Thank you both for all your hard work :) You're both awesome

[@johnmcrae4679]

"A ferry is a boat": the hard hitting facts I watch your content for

[@AnneEWilliamson]

It is your guys' faults that I constantly have this song in my head. Every time a new video comes out, I go around humming it for the rest of the day. It's just so addictive!

[@vineet3491]

Never gets old. Cartoon produced some great tracks back to back.

[@BarrowX]

I REMEMBER YOOOOOU

[@kms1.62]

I love your channels! I've lived in Korea for 7 years and have always been interested in what life would be like if I had chosen China. Your videos really sate my curiosity. Thanks for being awesome.

[@matthewwilliamsracing]

Time for an outtakes video guys. (And hi from Adelaide, Australia)

[@Whisperwomaneq2]

I am curious. My fav channels periodically speak about the massive editing they have to do. I don't think everyone appreciates how significant it is. Your videos are so clean they seem effortless. So I was wondering if you guys could post 5 or 10 minutes of completely unedited video? I think that would be really cool to see. I would love to see it. I have been with you both for a few years now. When you started adding the drone shots it was amazing. Just beautiful. Keep up all the amazing work you two!

[@Lysander45]

Finally, footage that has been filmed within the past week or two. The backlog from last year and a few months ago was starting to get a little bit noticeable.

[@lisa_monalisa268]

Love ya channel!!!Keep exploring deeper into China!!!

[@krumsemenliev6151]

Keep up the good work! Regards from Bulgaria!

[@HuntedCupCake]

Great video and love your stuff.. but idk am I too tired or did you guys even answer the question in your video title?

[@kalinsapotato]

As a more helpful answer, nah, he's a British South African.

[@zillbilliechris]

My son turned me on to this channel about a year ago and we both really enjoy it. I have served in the military and I have seen how most of the world lives, however only from a distance. Your show delivers on the opportunity to learn allot more about a different culture and social system from an outsiders perspective and more importantly (in my opinion), how much we have in common; people are people and your channel does a great job of reinforcing that fact. Thank you for taking us along for the ride, and please stay safe out there.

[@TigerTurban]

goofs

[@jimyork2847]

Tyrone D Or, the US Army/Navy... the US have a significant military presence all over the world. And most sailors from a NATO country would have seen most coastal countries.

[@NeverSuspects]

You did read the whole post right? All the way up to the part where he said what he seen was only from a distance and then about how the channel has given a closer perspective. Also think about the statement in relative terms. Most people will never see as much of the world as those who serve in the military. Also, sailor will only see ports because they move goods, the military moves and deploys people and not only too ports.

[@zillbilliechris]

Tyrone, most people in this world live in countries (India, China, Middle East) that are very different socially and economically from those in western society. That is all I was trying to convey, not that my explanation matters because I'm sure you'll only be interested in firing back with some other semantic critique.

[@painmagnet1]

@ Chris and @Tyrone D hope you fellows are doing well. The world needs more people like yourselves!

[@iliailiev1329]

Greetings from Bulgaria !!! Love your videos ! FULL SUPPORT !

[@diddy3024]

Congrats guys! 200k

[@HAHA.GoodMeme]

Love that you guys keep improving. The base concept of the channel is great and the effort that you put into it makes it worth it, as a viewer. Thank you!

[@navarshane99]

Hey, love your guys videos, Ive seen literally every single one, and I have learned so much about China that I wouldn't have if not for your channels, I think it'd be real cool for you guys to do a video on hand pollination in China due to the decline of bees over there and maybe visit some farms and talk to the farmers where they have to hand pollinate.

[@steverichardson7417]

Randomly saw this channel and it looked interesting. Couple binge sessions later and I'm hooked. I spent 22 years travelling the world with the US Air Force, but china was a country i never got to see. Great work with your channel and a hell of a concept! Two dudes riding bikes and chatting...who knew it'd be so addictive 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@nawtsurprised]

You guys are awesome. I can see you guys, 50 years from now, not riding motorcycles, but shuffling down sidewalks with walkers on an intercom system (aka hearing aids) with microdrones circling for video footage while discussing the issues of the day, such as the constant swarm of flys always around you, having forgotten they are your own drones. LOL

[@treasureministries]

So glad to hear that C Milk has control over his language. I dropped his channel because of G-D lots Fs. I invite you into my home and with that language. My mom put soap into my mouth. I can not invite him into my home! Winston anytime, C Mile has to show the right thing for a while. It is so easy to have at potty mouth, rise above it.

[@jarijahy.1591]

I am used to listening to 3 hour podcasts ... I wouldn't mind just seeing you guys in an episode, just talk for an hour. You don't have to edit a lot, just run it like a conventional podcast. I guess without having a studio setup might make it harder. I mean I love your 15-30min episodes, but sometimes I feel you guys can rant for way longer and your subscribers like you guys. So I think we would love to hear more bro-talk and have some fun with it ... Thanks for the great content!!! Keep it awesome :D

[@kayumust]

glad to be part of all 3 channels ;D much love

[@JBBost]

You guys definitely came up with a revolutionary formula, but not only that, you introduced me to a place and culture that I've never really considered.

[@azr3al874]

Just want to say THANKYOU guys for all the advice I have received from all 3 of your channels.keep an coming.i don't think you know how many people you have helped.much love guys.

[@donicsm7684]

Finally bought Conquering Southern China and Conquering Northern China today. I've been so fascinated by your China videos, awesome job guys!

[@jennylynne4414]

I LOVE the videos when you guys are on the bikes discussing things. I love that there is a mix of city and country. It's fascinating to see the things you see. It's fun getting your perspectives. It's interesting getting to know you guys by listening to your conversations and your reactions to things that happen along the way. It really is a something special. So as you guys say, stay awesome!

[@jennyclairedavies]

Hey guys! I've only just started watched this channel and your individual channels. You're great to listen to and never fail to have interesting topics. It's quite educational for me who knows very little about China. Thanks!

[@anzbatman2297]

Thanks guys, really enjoy your work.

[@GradyGillis]

I enjoy your and your wives' channels, but THIS one is the best. It's the topics and scenery, for certain, but it really comes down the the synergy of the two of you playing off each other that elevates it a step above your individual channels. Don't get me wrong, guys, you each put out great content, both informative and entertaining. But ADVChina is just that tiny bit above. Stay awesome; keep them coming; and watch your backs!

[@markhawthorne6683]

Do you know what makes these so special? It is not only the amazing travelling and adventures you do. It is the content , but most of all the friendly , easy and laid back way you just go for it, the personal view and opinions are priceless. But the fact that your friendship has such an endearing magic for the viewer. The viewer actually feels you are talking to them. It is a personal touch that can only be seen in all of your videos from you both , but more apparent in ADV . I also like the fact that you are both still amazed by the following you get and still grounded and appreciative of the good comments and loyalty you receive. All of this success , and I think growing success can only ever be attributed to the hard work and imagination you guys have put into this . To imagine the seed, grow the seed, nurture the seed into a tree and watch it bloom. Both you and your families are awesome . 😎😎 Maybe a video of you all together over a special celebration meal chatting about etiquette or something would be nice Stay awesome

[@timbemann]

You're Awesome! But you never made any reference to the subject of the title. So, was/is it legal, or is it more of a "Not worth bothering with" issue for the Government?

[@AshleyKaulitz007]

"We're not entirely sure, but we tell you how we made the channel anyway."

[@oilhammer04]

Thanks for the great content and the work you do.

[@coweatsman]

Do an episode riding on the new Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge/tunnel, longest in the world, when it opens.

[@benjaminehrenberg]

Pro tip. Buy an external audio recorder and sync up the audio later in post. Zoom H5 or whatever. Microphone to go pro sounds painful.

[@bengosling4606]

C-Milk & Winston, you both make great entertaining, educational content with some personal opinion thrown in for good measure. I love seeing and even rewatching your vids, Keep up the hard work. Thanks 👍✌

[@Kratatch]

I just found you guys the other day and been watching a lot of your videos, i really like what you do. Most "travel" shows jumps around the world like crazy, you stay in China (and the US for some stuff on your private channels) and really let the audience know how China works on so many different levels and the way of life there. I just love it. Keep up the good work!

[@Czechbound]

Looking forward to seeing the new adventure ! I spent 6 weeks from Inner Mongolia .. Beijing .. Tianjin .. Xian .. Chengdu .. Yibin ... Chongqing ... Yichang ... Wuhan .. Guangzhou ... Shenzhen ... Hong Kong ... Nanning .... This channel, and your two personal ones bring back great memories ! Wishing you continued success !! The Chinese Tourist Board should be sponsoring you to visit countries and promote China to foreigners.

[@borninthewrongtime6449]

Now 320K!! Congrrats!! Love you guys!!

[@dncviorel]

Guys, don't f around with the editing. We need more of the you two. Release more, faster, with less editing. Everyone will be happy. Cheers!

[@Rubaphilos]

Discovered you guys about a week ago. Been binge watching your vids (all three chans) for that week ... great work guys, keep it up.

[@DaveSweetS]

One question about editing: how do you manage with the copyright of the songs you put into your videos? Do you have to pay any royalty? Did you ever had any problem about this (excluding the one C-Milk had last year)?

[@user-zw5ww9tz1j]

Thanks for the videos. Probably my favorite channel on KZbin

[@2000freefuel]

while more gear, what about a dedicated audio recorder? so the conversation is not a total loss due to technical issues.

[@jeroenh2770]

Great show Guys, really enjoying every episode! As a dutch guy living in Cancún, Mexico, i got to experience first hand how it is to start a new live in a different country.

[@ElusiveMasquerade]

I really enjoy your work and appreciate the efforts put into it. I’m happy you are safe from the evils of South Africa and living a better life. I’m a subscriber for life and allow all the ads to play in hopes that it helps your channel.

[@RawOlympia]

I feel super fortunate to have found your channel, you have given the most incredible detailed journey with everything -!

[@NicMediaDesign]

Simply use a Sony FDR X3000 Action Cam! Slim to mount, no adapter for microphone needed AND optical stabilization!

[@nashua03064]

I've been following you both for awhile... and am blown away with your shares. For me... your interaction with the locals is by far the best part of your shares. Being bilingual is the biggest gift you give to us. Verbatim translations and explaining the cultural differences is so important and needed. The "world" is learning more and more about each others cultures. Please, please use your bilingual talents more and more. I've been following the Korean culture for a long time. More bilingual interaction please ! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR WORK !!! Tom

[@kinjiru731]

Really looking forward to hearing more about your new project!

[@freespirit6209]

Great upbeat video from 2 awesome guys! Thanks!

[@Bigmi1ke]

Am I the only one who gets pumped everytime I hear the song?

[@spookerd]

It's That Guy in China and Matt Smith from Doctor Who in China. Totally worth the subscribe and the time so keep the great work up guys!

[@littlelickie]

The editing is brilliant as always. one might say its awesome!

[@totaltotalmonkey]

It would be interesting if you could cover the 'social credit system', there appears to be confusion about what it is/ will be - perhaps due to bad translations and media hype. I would also understand if you preferred not to cover it too. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

[@ajalbetjr]

Guys, your BRILLIANT idea of a 'talk show on wheels' is exactly how I got hooked!! It's a fantastic concept, and both of you are great presenters and do a fantastic job of exposing us to 'All Things China' that we would never elsewise would have had the opportunity to see! I have a newfound appreciation for China and can't wait to see what you do in the future!! Greetings from New Jersey USA!!

[@EdwardBerryy]

Fabulous stuff. Can't wait to see the channel hit a million subs one day. It's seriously only a matter of time. I really believe it.

[@matheusgoncalves7282]

I found this channel one week ago. I can't stop to watch it. The first video that I saw was a Serpentza video about Japan and it was amazing. I think it's because all the images you guys use while you are talking, you know? It makes everything so more immersive. I really think these are the best youtube channels until now. If someday I move to Japan, after some years living there I pretend to build a channel like yours. Amazing stuff, as always stay awesome ^^

[@sullybiker6520]

This is making me want to watch Conquering Southern China again.

[@goodtoGoNow1956]

I have no idea how this happened, but somehow I have discovered your channel on Xbox KZbin. And I just really have grown to like -- You Guys. I am not the least bit interested in living in China but I am going to be watching your videos from this point on. I'm about double your age (60's) but I am so impressed by your overall integrity and honesty and bravery. God bless you.

[@ADVChina]

Thanks mate!

[@noortaref8721]

This video felt like 2 mins instead of 10... which is a great thing, as always.

[@gaylebrown614]

Just discovered your channels and I have spent way too much spare time catching up on your past videos, but love the honest assessment of your experiences. Knew virtually nothing about China before, so interesting. Keep it awesome guys!

[@Dowlphin]

Always good to convey some of the off-camera activity because due to the nature of the format people will easily get a biased picture and think video production like that is all smooth sailing. If you two never found each other as someone seeing those endeavors through but had to run things on your own, can you even imagine where you would be today? ... Two can be so much more powerful than one.

[@trevorhofmann1562]

Thanks for all the informative and entertaining vids guys! You typify what's best about KZbin. Stay awesome!

[@Nicolastkyo]

I love this channel! I've learned so much about China

[@pincharmonix]

I recently found your channel and have already burned through a lot of your videos, I love it! As I'm sure C-milk could tell you, China and Chinese culture is still very mysterious to Americans because most of the info we do get usually comes through a political lens. It's great to hear both your personal perspectives as Westerners living there as well as the perspective of natives like Vivi. Thanks guys!

[@TheColonelKlink]

I love the Gratuitous Drone Shots. I love the bikes. I love meandering down unknown back allies, country roads, highways with dangerous unsafe trucks, shopping for phones in Shenzhen, cities full of brand new empty high rises and most of all the you guys and your interaction with China's amazing people. Awesome! So keep cracking the throttle guys. 👍

[@eyvhuhgfg5331]

People said editing is time consuming. I think dealing with hate comments and editing makes vlogging so daunting

[@smackfanxion]

I find the talks about china mildly interesting. Cool stuff to know about. I really love the rides though. Being able to get little looks into the country, inner cities and stuff while effectively listening to interesting podcast style discussion is pretty cool.

[@tonystout1545]

I mostly watch you guys via KZbin on my TV, sans descriptions or comments below, like I get on my laptop (where I am typing this now). As such, I could not see the answer to your video's title question until I went over to my laptop. Consider that in the future before making clickbait. Thanks, and as always, you know the drill....stay awesome!

[@reidcbcampbell]

I have learnt more from your channel than any other on youtube! Keep it up guys.

[@321CatboxWA]

RE recording audio while riding: Get a third intercom , disconnect or disable the mic, and then replace the earphone (s) with a 1/8 in female headphone jack. Plug one end of a patch cord into The !/8 in jack and the other bend into a digital sound recorder. Presto you now have both of you on one track for. cheers

[@kshiray]

Surprised that views drop for the bike episodes - those are my favourites, please keep doing them. Loved the timelapse at the end!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Awesome video guys! Reunited at last! Looking forward to the new videos.

[@sabbynim]

Sometimes when I'm sitting in my car driving to work or whatever I catch myself singing, "I remember youuuuuu! You make me stronger!!!!" Which is some totally lame fangirl shit. But, hey, that's what happens. Rememberrrrrr! REMEMBERRRRR!!!!

I wish I could forget. It might make me stronger.

[@1969mmoldovan]

You really hit the nail on the head opening a niche in this chaotic world of vlogging: the motorcycle video diaries. Kudos

[@TheOriginalRaster]

Your videos are awesome! This is so educational this is addicting... I just want to keep watching episodes. Here's one thing that adds tremendously: I"m using Chrome on a workstation and as the page shows links to other episodes (sub-images and their titles) I right click to open another tab with that video. I just keep adding to my current set of tabs (videos waiting for me to watch). I'm ending up with so many tabs I start a new window, so I have maybe twelve episodes to watch and I keep adding to that as I see new ones (deleting the tab after I click "like")... I create a new tab for the most interesting video titles. The technique I just described is maximizing my addiction I guess. I'm writing this to you for your benefit. Maybe you do this same thing while watching other KZbin channels. In any case I find this interesting. You guys do really great work! Cheers!

[@MrSCameraMan]

Love you Guys, You do China a good service with your channels, you guys changed my whole perception of China in a positive way. ps Also cool that C-Milk grew up in my neck of the woods here in NY.

[@MaTtRoSiTy]

Congrats guys! There are now other content creators doing similar things but you guys are by far the best IMO

[@joseph7988]

Great quality, I can count each of Matthew's grey hairs in these 4K vidz! :)

[@mmmikeyyy]

Hey! One of those recent subscribers here. Awesome channel!

[@thurin84]

stumbled across the channel a couple years ago when sampling content about china because i had a couple chinese cultural course in school. didnt subscribe because "why subscribe to everything" i thought but then last track when youtube (big brother) changed its " you may be interested in" algorithm. stumbled back across the channel a few days ago and immediately subbed.

[@painmagnet1]

Winston seems cool even in a black suit while Matthew is puffing, face glistening with sweat. I give props to both of these guys for their staying power. Being a KZbinr on the go can't be easy. I hope they succeed in all their endeavors.

[@casperrah220]

Luv u guys. Please never stop being AWESOME!

[@guigui42]

I discovered your channels a few weeks ago only and I have been going through most of your videos since then. I lived there for only 3 years in BJ, but it was enough for me to see the good AND the bad of China, and I must say it was very refreshing to hear your point of views and experiences, that were actually not so far from my own experience, and it brought back old memories from my time there (good and bad). Obviously, China has changed a lot in a few years, but from what I hear and see in your videos, it is still the same as 10 years ago (just bigger and more connected). I wouldnt ever want to live there again, but China is still interesting and always will be, so thank you for sharing it with us. Cheers from me, an ex Faguoren / laowai

[@LVK15926951]

Love the whole motorcycle thing you guys do. Keep it up.
