新浪网友 宏亿螺丝:

Why can China always be called a major Eastern/Oriental country? Other than the vast areas of land, the large number of people is also one of the most important factors. Hoping that the future China’s greatness in the world will no longer have anything to do with population.

Haha, don’t we Chinese love such liveliness? Only with this liveliness can we have a holiday atomsphere!

新浪网友:

Use flesh and blood to cast a New Great Wall.

新浪网友 离线下载:

We must remain steadfast to the basic national policy of family planning!

新浪网友:

Human population needs to be reduced by half.

新浪网友:

Us Chinese people simply are numerous. C’mon, isn’t this way too crowded?

新浪网友 3210021989fh:

During the National Day holiday, come to The Great Wall to see the sea, the sea of people!

新浪网友:

With this many tourists and no limiting of them, I’m truly afraid that these ancient walls won’t collapse because of thousands of years of wind and rain but because of being trampled by us modern people.

新浪网友:

Is this to go sightseeing or rushing to the farmer’s market? Faint…

新浪网友 yuzhongjian:

All I want to say is: Could you afford collapsing the Great Wall?

新浪网友:

Money, like these streams of people, once again flows into the pockets of the minority [government officials and businessmen].

The following 12-minute video is a compilation of traffic accidents caught on surveillance cameras installed throughout the city of Heze in Shandong province of China. It was originally released by traffic authorities to help educate the public on traffic safety awareness and has since become the latest viral video to spread throughout China’s internet where it has been viewed millions of times by Chinese netizens. Warning: Video may be graphic.

On Youku:

Tragic! 108 surveillance cameras capture the moment of death in Heze traffic accidents!

Installing surveillance cameras is just one method, but improving motorists and the people’s traffic safety knowledge is the key. We cannot stop traffic accidents from happening, but we will do our best to prevent and reduce the occurrence of accidents. Rise up together all people and all police, and work towards building a safe and peaceful Heze, work towards being able to go home to eat with our loved ones…

The above high definition copy comes from popular Chinese video sharing website Youku, where it has accumulated over ~2 million views, over 8300 comments spanning over 279 pages, and over 23k upvotes within 22 hours of being uploaded. These numbers are still rapidly rising as of this time. Just over the past hour, this video added an additional 200k views and 4k upvotes.

In comparison, the most popular copy on Tudou has 190k views, over 600 comments, over 1200 upvotes, and is titled “Shandong Heze police released traffic accident footage, over 10 million views“.

A copy on YouTube:

Can’t see the above video?

[UPDATE: Sorry, our copy on YouTube was "flagged as inappropriate" and is no longer available.]

Comments from Youku:

ssdsdsdsdd:

Those people are so unobservant of traffic rules. Intensely demand that China’s traffic department modify the laws so that those who don’t obey the rules like running red light and therefore cause accidents resulting in injuries and deaths should not only die but also pay fines and losses.

@dkcr:

A lot of them are electric scooters and motorcycles breaking the law… so sad… In some of the clips, the car was already driving very slowly…

Nicolas遥:

After watching these, it seems it is always the ones who got hit who simply have no notion of traffic regulations. Can you please just wait those few dozen seconds? Are those few seconds going to result in you making 1 million less or whatever?
We can see in conclusion: No matter what “metal covering flesh” > “flesh covering metal”

@鄙视CPC:

Again a problem with the character of our country’s people, insisting on crossing even when they know there are cars coming and going. And the drivers too. In Germany, even if it is a green light but there are pedestrians on the crosswalk, the drivers will not move forward, they won’t even honk.

幽灵尤里:

Yes, they [in Germany] won’t move forward… but in China if you don’t try moving forward or honking, just when will you be able to go??? If you give way to them, they will cross the road slowly, one after another, not letting you go… frustrating you to death. [But] if you don’t give way to them, you’ll feel bad in your heart too…

超人。。:

For a lot of them, they deserved to die, they were asking for it. Who can you blame?

@小不点…狼:

If you don’t abide by traffic rules and you get hit and die, you deserved it. It isn’t that I am ruthless, but those riding non-motorized vehicles treat us motorists like ATMs. They obviously know it is a red light yet they still run it right in front of you.

可恶的吼吼:

Only this kind of video can truly have any educational and cautionary value. Everyone on the road, you must be careful.

xu452729343:

This background music makes my blood boil!

血雨冰刀007:

Some bastards simply deserve to die, [and they] even get motorists/drivers in trouble. To run a red light is to run past Death’s door. Best if they died.

@一砖不行就两砖:

First, it is still a problem of character! More and more people are buying cars! But accidents keep happening! Hope everyone can pay more attention when driving! Finally, it is still better to not buy cars! There will be less accidents and less pollution of the environment! Buying a car doesn’t show that you have money but rather makes you pay even more money! With gas prices that high, everyone in the future ride horses!

xieqiang9595:

Heze people are in such a hurry?

X苏打水:

A lot of the situations was because these people believe the road belong to them.

sickdoll:

Those who violate traffic rules… should rightfully be hit and killed… even sympathy compensation shouldn’t be paid. Now anytime someone is hit, it is the person who hit the other who is held responsible. This is too unfair. Nowadays, those riding electric scooters will turn without even looking. You tell me what can be done when this happens? Sometimes I really want to ask them who would be responsible if a crash happened. NNd.

shell3956574:

To say something heartless, those who were hit and killed truly deserved it!!! Truly!!! Life is getting faster and faster, there are more and more cars… Does not obeying the traffic signals mean you’re a man? Even if you get some compensation money (no matter who is wrong, the traffic police always rules compensation for the weaker party, which is the party on the non-motorized vehicle), you won’t be able to spend it when you’re dead. And after you’re gone, someone else will come sleep with your wife, hit your child, sit on your sofa, and live in your house!!! Cherish your life…it’s better to wait a minute than to steal a second!
In these clips, it is basically always caused by the non-motorized vehicle party running the traffic signal [red light], etc… causing disaster for both parties/sides!!!!!

The following video quickly became viral on the Chinese internet. For example, one copy on popular Chinese video sharing website Youku accumulated over 1.1 million views, 3300 comments over 111 pages, and 25k downvotes 12 hours after it was uploaded earlier today. An older copy uploaded over 2 days earlier can be found on another Chinese video sharing website Ku6, but that copy only has ~55k views.

The title of the video uploaded on Ku6 is “Wealthy second-generation flies aircraft to pick up girlfriend, stuns students“. “Wealthy second-generation” or “rich second-generation” refers to Chinese youth who are the children of rich parents.

On Youku:

Man lands helicopter on campus to pick up female student

March 19th around 3:40pm, a red helicopter landed at the sports field at Dezhou University campus and after a female student boarded, the helicopter slowly rose and flew away. Many university students at the sports field all witnessed this scene at the time, with many of them using their mobile phones to capture it on video.

A copy on YouTube:

Can’t see the above video?

Comments from NetEase:

网易河北省廊坊市网友:

[The helicopter] came to pick up cunt, fuck.

网易广东省深圳市宝安区网友:

Qilu Television Channel [aka Shandong Television] helicopter, this is a company expense.

网易广东省广州市网友:

The character of Chinese students…!!!

网易广东省深圳市网友:

With the country now preparing to open up all airspace 1000 meters and below, in accordance with the progress of society, there will be more and more private aircraft, the number of people using small aircraft will also increase, and when that happens, everyone will think this is no big deal!

网易湖南省网友:

I bet this aircraft isn’t even as expensive as a Ferrari F430…

网易广东省深圳市网友:

As long as the money was legitimately earned, not wealth that was obtained through corruption and breaking the law and rules, however one wants to legitimately spend their money is their individual freedom/choice!

网易安徽省芜湖市网友:

Putting aside what wealthy second-generation youth are doing flying aircraft, the person who filmed this has a mouthful of dirty language. If you are a university student, you’re really an embarrassment to university students, an embarrassment to university education, an embarrassment to China’s education system, and an embarrassment to your parents. Has all China’s education system produced is a university student with a mouthful of dirty language?

网易天津市塘沽区网友:

Some support for the human flesh search, everyone do their best to find out who this girl is…

网易黑龙江省网友:

SB video taker. Lying to get clicks~~~ [Probably referring to titling the video as suggesting this is the action of a wealthy second generation.]

网易重庆市网友:

You are not a wealthy second-generation so you hate the wealthy second generation. You are not a star so you say say stars depend on hidden/unspoken rules to become famous [i.e. sleeping around, connections]. I believe mentality is very important.

网易上海市网友:

You guys know what this is about, sex in the air, a good idea, I ding!

网易广西南宁市网友:

Whoever now drives a Ferrari to pick up their girlfriend will be embarrassed [feel inadequate]…
[He] learned a lesson from Li Gang‘s son, this way no one will be hit…

网易江苏省常州市网友:

That looks like the Shandong Television Channel logo on it, private aircraft can’t be flown so freely like this, our country’s low-altitude air traffic control hasn’t yet opened up.

网易广东省中山市网友:

Just look at the run-down dorms in the background and you’ll know just how wide the poor-rich wealth gap is in China.

Comments from Youku:

hua1988wo:

What’s going on? Fuck, that’s my girlfriend.

What’s wrong with that girl’s leg?

苯崽奶爷:

Everyone can stop envying and hating the rich…when brother [referring to self] becomes rich, I too will be like him. Money is to be spent…not all donated…

万里独行e:

It’d be one thing if this aircraft were your own, but you fucking flew a television channel’s helicopter to come show off, this is the same thing as driving your company or boss’s car to go pick up someone.

xinyouni18:

Intensely want to see what that girl looks like…

卓越少爺:

People these days are so uncouth, everything out of their mouths is fuck fuck –

萧轩依影:

Chinese people don’t hate the rich, they hate the rich but cruel/heartless.

comicstudio:

The news reported on this, said it was a father picking up his daughter, that the father is responsible for aerial pesticide spraying, that he was picking up his daughter from school on his way home after work, that this was in Dezhou.

19911017a:

What a crappy school.

县前人:

A bunch of poor people whining, what a mentality… (hating the rich). Do you know why you are poor? Because your thinking is poor, so you will always be poor, because you you can’t possibly become what you despise!!!

装毛啊装:

Why do I feel you are even more obscene? You must be one of those who are both intellectually and materially poor, right?

shenghuige:

Back in the day, this was exactly how Li Gang‘s father picked up Li Gang’s mother to take her home.

No helicopter? Personals @ chinaSMACK.

Recently, Chinese netizens on various different popular Chinese BBS internet discussion forums have begun circulating and collectively contributing to a collection of photographs taken all around China. With a name that sounds similar to the recent “Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars” campaign, the “Photograph Your Area’s Government Office Building” Chinese netizen phenomenon “exposes” the government office buildings found in various provinces, counties, cities, and towns throughout China that “cause people to stare in awe”. It is said that these photos reveal that the scale and splendor of government office buildings even in impoverished areas of China’s western interior certainly do not “lose in the slightest” to those in China’s wealthier coastal areas.

Here, we have collected the images that have been posted by netizens so far on several posts found on Mop, China.com, & KDS.

Comments from Mop:

人在疯语中:

A common problem in the Heavenly Kingdom. If the money spend building these luxurious vanity projects were used on the parts of the population that have been forgotten or on the lives of the peasants/farmers, what would things be like [for the country] now?

雪碧超人:

Pretty good, there’s nothing inappropriate, would you rather all of them work in single-story offices so they would appear simple/modest?

zgh330356706:

Good buildings! China is truly strong and powerful.

月落之蓝:

I really don’t understand why government buildings are constructed to look like the White House [look so extravagant]? No one is going to praise you as being impressive, they will only say you are corrupt. If you’re going to construct something, first construct/fix the Project Hope schools, hospitales, and roads, and then naturally the ordinary common people will praise you. I really don’t know what these leaders are thinking. The one in our town doesn’t even have 100 workers, yet it occupies 1/3 of the entire town, the large building is the absolute best in the entire town. So disgusting.

月落之蓝:

Grass mud horse, in other countries, some of the government offices are rented, good enough if they can be used, so why fucking make them this big for? So one person can use 5 offices? Grass mud horse.

名字长不是我的错:

Ding, [the government buildings are] pretty much the same everywhere [throughout China].

win102102:

Would you be satisfied if the government’s buildings were really poor and rundown??

LoveHottie:

No matter much hardship there is going on, the leaders must not be allowed to suffer hardship. No matter how poor people are, the leaders must not suffer poverty!
Let some get rich first, then eradicate those who cannot get rich, to finally achieve common prosperity!

Motherfucking CP! (Communist Party)

欠女幽魂:

If America saw this, it’d even feel ashamed/inadequate…

九龙论剑:

Everywhere these office buildings are the best buildings in the entire city, so full of power and grandeur, that people are even afraid to get near them.

So full of power and grandeur. Personals @ chinaSMACK.

From Sohu:

“Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars” began with one mother asking for help finding her son

Photos of children uploaded

Recently, as long as you were on weibo [microblog] following the “Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars” official microblog account set up by Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Rural Development professor Yu Jianrong, you would have seen a long list of updates from this microblog every day you opened your weibo, with all of them being photos and information of child beggars on the streets posted by netizens throughout the country. According to this reporter’s rough calculations, amongst the photos and information of child beggars uploaded, there are a total of 50 child beggars from the Guangzhou area.

Searching for son information attracts netizen’s attention

Yesterday, Yu Jianrong expressed on a telephone interview with this reporter that “Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars” was first started because on January 17th, a mother asked him to help her by posting a microblog message searching for her missing child Yang Weixin. After posting the weibo message, it immediately attracted the attention of netizens, with one netizen claiming to have seen a child that resembled Yang Weixin begging in Xiamen at the beginning of 2010, even uploading a photo of the child begging. Afterward, the child’s family immediately rushed to Xiamen to search for the child’s whereabouts.

Yu Jianrong said: “After this, many netizens asked me to help post information about searches for children. So I created a dedicated ‘Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars’ weibo. I hope that through the power of netizens, mothers who have lost their children can find hope in this weibo.

On February 3rd, Professor Yu Jianrong posted on his Sina Weibo microblog account the following image, a collection of the photographs of child beggars and missing children submitted to him by Chinese netizens, including a graph at the bottom showing in which cities many of the photographs were taken. Along with this image was a status update by Yu Jianrong that reads:

[Photograph and Rescue Child Beggars] Developments 2: 1. Seven days after beginning, a total of 415 child beggar photographs have been received; 2. There have been parents who have recognized their children [in the photographs]; 3. The Public Security Bureau has placed a high level of attention [to this effort] and have dispatched police many times; 4. CCTV, Guangdong, and other media have reported [on our efforts]; 5. [Jet Li's] One Foundation has expressed that they will financially aid in the development of a database and netizen rescue effort system. Please continue to gei li [do your best, impress everyone with your efforts].

From NetEase:

Netizens around the country take photos on the streets to rescue child beggars

A weibo [microblog] campaign against suspected child trafficking and to rescue child beggars started by Chinese Academy of the Social Sciences professor Yu Jianrong began on January 25th, appealing to microblog netizens to take and upload photos of child beggars they encounter on the streets, urging the police to take action, and within a short two weeks, nearly a thousand photographs have already been uploaded by netizens.

The Public Security Bureau's anti-trafficking department director Chen Shiqu has also expressed support on the microblog, even contacting the police departments of various places to pay attention to it. Some National People's Congress representatives have also stated that they will raise the issue during the Two Meetings this years. Various public security organs are paying attention in support. Photo is of a child beggar in Shenzhen.

This girl was seen in Panzhou Park in Gaozhou City of Guangdong, wearing ethnic minority clothes, with the paper on the ground probably saying how her mother has some kind of illness, and how she has no money for treatment. However, what isn't logical is that the speaker system she is using to sell songs appears to be very good/expensive!

February 2nd (Chinese New Year Eve) afternoon, discovered a woman with a boy begging opposite Henglong Mall on Quancheng Road in Jinan City of Shandong province.

Comments from QQ:

腾讯佳木斯市网友:

The state should establish severe punishments to crack down upon human traffickers including sentencing human traffickers to death to bring peace and security to all the children in the world.

腾讯上海市网友:

Ignorant people will always be ignorant. Why can’t the police can’t detain child beggars and their companions/handlers when they see them and use DNA tests to ascertain the truth? Why waste time messing around with these weibo (I suspect person behind the weibo [Yu Jiangrong] just wants to become famous)? I really don’t understand why the state is this indifferent towards the phenomenon of child beggars.

腾讯铜仁地区网友:

Yeah, even netizens have begun taking action, but the government, just being a bunch of “qualified” cadres swinging their arms back and forth doing nothing, because sitting on the toilet without shitting is their specialty.

腾讯江门市网友:

Ever since the government got rid of death sentences for corrupt officials and human trafficking, China became a black society [a criminal underworld, a world of organized crime].

腾讯网友:

Today I too saw a woman with a child begging on the pedestrian overpass at the intersection of Cangbian Road and Dongfeng Road, the child sleeping on the overpass, probably only two or three years old, I couldn’t see the child’s face clearly. At the time, I even scolded the woman for allowing her child to suffer with her for her failure in life, but I didn’t imagine that the child could have been abducted. Now that I think about it, those heartless human traffickers should really be run over by cars, being so cruel, how could they do it, to those innocent children? From this day forward, I too will join this group of rescuing abducted children, take photos, post them onto weibo, so those children separated [from their parents] may return home soon.

腾讯阜阳市网友:

Human traffickers and their families should all die! Too despicable, I feel sad just thinking about those abducted children, the parents suffering even more each day, the state should heavily punish human traffickers! Make it so they will never have the guts to abduct children again!

腾讯网友:

Let us do what we can on weibo, working together. For the children, for the love of human nature.

腾讯深圳市网友:

These human traffickers should be shot, how can those who also have children of their own be so cruel…hope those abducted children can return home soon…

腾讯绍兴市网友:

Look at how developed countries don’t have the death penalty and yet they’re still more “harmonious” than China.
Torture doesn’t solve everything. It was because the Tang Dynasty governed with benevolence and righteousness than people worshiped/admired it.

腾讯网友:

Ding this up. Having the thought itself is a good thing.

腾讯唐山市网友:

Should we complain? Or should we go do something? Though there are some things in the world that are very difficult to change, as long as we contribute our own strength, no matter how difficult it is there is still a possibility.

腾讯北京市网友:

So sad. The strength of us ordinary common people is too small, though we care and our hearts ache. Hope the government will do something, that those who abduct children be sentenced to death. Then let’s see who dares to traffic children.

腾讯东莞市网友:

The question is why did 2 years have to pass before everyone learned about it.

腾讯中山市网友:

The country has 10 trillion in fiscal revenues a year, and yet several children can’t be rescued. Where is the blood and sweat money of the ordinary common people going? No wonder America is so arrogant!!!!!!!!!!!!!

腾讯梧州市网友:
