Chinese social media is opening up.
2
There are now more
3
Western users than ever on these platforms.
4
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
5
In today's episode, I'll be sharing my thoughts.
6
Stay tuned.
7
Hello, everyone, and welcome to The John Pang Show.
8
In today's episode, we're going to be talking about how Chinese social media appears to be opening up and changing.
9
Or is it?
10
You see, in the last few weeks of you hearing this episode right now,
11
a platform called Bilibili recently went global.
12
What does that mean?
13
That means instead of only being able to be downloaded via the Chinese app store, they have gone global.
14
They are now accessible from everyone all around the world.
15
Now, what exactly does this mean?
16
Well, it's actually quite interesting.
17
A lot of people have said, well, finally, YouTube has some competition.
18
Well, I don't know about that, but it definitely could be a step in the right direction.
19
But today, what I actually want to talk to you more about is kind of the pros
20
and the cons that I've seen from Chinese social media opening up more to the Western world.
21
So, first of all, if you know nothing about Chinese social media, let me tell you a little bit about it.
22
I think a lot of you, if you are not from China, you know the app TikTok.
23
Now, actually, there is a completely different version in China that's called Douyin.
24
And these two apps are basically two separate apps.
25
The features are similar, but the entire user base, the entire content base is completely separated.
26
Now, most of the apps in China are like that until something happened.
27
In case you don't remember, TikTok got banned in the USA for a little bit of time.
28
And when that happened, that's when we had the great TikTok refugee situation.
29
That's because why?
30
Because an app called Red Note in China called Xia Hongshu,
31
that's because this app actually was available to be downloaded overseas.
32
And when that happened, that's when a lot of TikTok refugees went to this app.
33
So I think that's when the Chinese social media scene started to change a lot.
34
You see, this is one of the first times in history that Chinese people and people overseas,
35
and when I say that, I mean Americans, Europeans, blah, blah, blah.
36
This was one of the first times that regular common people began interacting with each other,
37
seeing where they live, learning about each other's countries, traditions, cultures, habits, and languages,
38
and daily lives without being misguided or jaded or lied to by the news.
39
I'll give you an example.
40
So for me, I've been living in China for a long time now, I believe over 20 years, and I have family here,
41
I have friends here, I have a good life here.
42
But before I went to China, I was under the impression that it'd be like this
43
dirt roads kung fu pagodas very stern people not a fun place a dark scary place
44
because that's what was always portrayed to me by the news
45
but then once i got here i realized oh wait a minute no that's it's not like
46
that at all it's an amazing place an awesome place the people are friendly
47
Everything is convenient.
48
It's very technologically advanced.
49
It's fantastic.
50
Amazing infrastructure, blah, blah, blah.
51
Now, of course, this could be said for a lot of different countries.
52
But the problem is you never really know until you go or you actually interact with the locals, the people that live there.
53
And I think this was a really big moment in time
54
because China had always been a complete mystery to many people something
55
because the internet has kind of been walled off in a set the fact
56
that not everyone could access it unless you were in China or, for example, on the Chinese app store, blah, blah, blah.
57
So this was a great moment in time where people from
58
all over the world were starting to get to know their Chinese brothers and sisters.
59
And I would say that since then,
60
China has actually become a lot more popular in a sense that before it was always like this complete mysterious place,
61
whereas now people are becoming Chinese or going through a very Chinese part of their lives, right?
62
So in one way, I think that's been an amazing thing.
63
And of course, when people from all around the world can exchange cultural ideas, be friendly with each other,
64
break down boundaries, that of course is a beautiful thing.
65
Now, remember, I'm talking very nice right now because we're talking about the positives,
66
the good things that I've seen from Chinese social media becoming more open.
67
Now, besides the TikTok refugee situation,
68
there was another huge event that I think really put a lot of eyes on China,
69
life in China, daily life in China, what China is really all about.
70
And that was when iShowSpeed, one of the most popular streamers in the world, or probably the most, I'm not sure,
71
when he did one of his trips here.
72
And when he did his stream here, I think that's when that brought way, way, way more attention to what life is like in China.
73
So it's been interesting to see how Chinese social media is now becoming more open to the Western world.
74
You're now seeing more and more
75
Western content creators come to China, create China -based content, and bring more attention to life in China,
76
as well as all the tourist spots and the food and the cuisine, the culture as well.
77
now I think that this definitely did a lot of great things
78
but I think
79
when a lot of good things happen you always can't forget the bad things as well
80
and I think this is really the
81
meat and potatoes of what I want to talk about today
82
because I kind of want to complain a little bit about this migration of Western people,
83
including myself, to the app.
84
So let's talk about Billy Billy.
85
So Billy Billy went global.
86
And if you don't know what
87
Billy is, Bilibili is like the equivalent of YouTube in China.
88
But listen, I love Bilibili, but Bilibili is a lot smaller than YouTube,
89
a lot, lot smaller in the sense that it's not the biggest player in China, I would say.
90
That would probably be Douyin.
91
Now, Bilibili is considered the YouTube with China because that's generally where long -form content is king.
92
This is a big issue in China right now because I think a lot of the platforms, they want people to consume more long -form content.
93
But the attention span is not good.
94
I believe they say that Asians are the top consumer of short -form content.
95
And so the attention span is really, really, really low.
96
In fact, I might think this might be a global thing.
97
I'm going to the USA this month.
98
I'll let you know.
99
But it is very common if you're walking around in China
100
that you'll be hearing a lot of people swiping through short -form social media.
101
So I've noticed a few negatives with the influx of foreign creators coming to the Bilibili platform.
102
And the first thing is, the For You page is a mess.
103
It is a mess.
104
I am used to seeing some great Chinese content.
105
Now I'm seeing people from India.
106
I'm seeing Brazilians.
107
I'm seeing Russians.
108
And I'm not saying I don't like these people.
109
I'm saying that I have no interest in this content.
110
It's just not for me, you know?
111
I like what I like.
112
Like my For You page has been clearly curated to my interest.
113
But now I'm just getting a random Indian guy saying, hello, everybody, welcome.
114
I'm the Indian guy.
115
I'm not going to do an accent, guys, okay?
116
I'm not going to do an accent, right?
117
I know I have Indian fans following me, okay?
118
Don't get me.
119
I'm not going to do an accent.
120
But now it's just like an Indian guy in a city.
121
Or a Brazilian guy from a village, just like, this is my home.
122
And I'm like, cool, but I didn't search for this.
123
Why did you show me this, right?
124
And I think what has happened is that, Billy, the platform has not been really ready for this influx of people coming over.
125
Because one rule of social media is that when a new platform shows up, you want to be an early adopter.
126
because if you can be there early, that means a lot less competition.
127
That means that you could probably go viral earlier.
128
You can accumulate more followers.
129
You can gain a following and hopefully you can monetize as well.
130
And so I think right now, everybody is saying, whoa, new platform.
131
Whoa, YouTube competitor.
132
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
133
But we'll see what happens there.
134
Now, besides the For You page, being a mess, there are still a lot of issues with the localization.
135
And I think this is a really important thing.
136
And I think it is really one of the biggest reasons why a lot of Western companies fail in China
137
because they fail to localize to what Chinese want.
138
In China, things are done differently.
139
Much like where things are done differently in other places as well.
140
But in China, specifically, you really, really, really have to localize.
141
And there are a lot of videos I'm seeing where there are no subtitles, where the thumbnails are written English.
142
Let's get this straight, everybody.
143
And I think this is something that a lot of people need to know is
144
that if you're going to migrate to Chinese social media, it's not like getting on YouTube or Instagram where you get the world.
145
No, it is China only.
146
And a lot, a lot of Chinese, obviously, being the world's second largest population, right?
147
So you really got to find some way to adapt in there, find a niche, or find something that appeals to the Chinese people.
148
Now, with every influx of popular content with new creators comes the bad side of creation as well.
149
And for me, I've also started to see a lot of some content that I'm not a big fan of.
150
You know, politics is always a sensitive subject.
151
But I believe since the influx of a lot more overseas
152
users to the Chinese platforms has then brought the rise of the political content creators talking about politics regarding
153
China and the USA and comparisons of this is bad you are bad, we are better, et cetera, et cetera, from both sides.
154
Now, don't get me wrong.
155
Politics are important, but it's just not my cup of tea.
156
And I also do know that for the most part, that a lot of political content is designed to get you upset,
157
to spark a debate, to rage bait you into leaving a comment.
158
And so sometimes I question the, how do I say this?
159
The intent of some of these creators talking about that stuff.
160
But everybody, the John Pang show is not a political commentary show.
161
We're not going to get into that.
162
I'm just sharing my thoughts.
163
And if you like my thoughts, I appreciate that.
164
Now, the worst type of content creator I'm seeing right now.
165
And you may say I'm being hypocritical.
166
Maybe I am, but hear me out.
167
Ever since China's become popular, ever since Chinese apps have become more open to the Western world,
168
you have a massive influx of people that love China.
169
Oh, that's interesting.
170
All of a sudden, you have the American guy talking about, wow, China is amazing.
171
This food is incredible.
172
Ha ha ha.
173
They don't really believe that.
174
They don't really think it's a great place
175
or they're just here for a short amount of time or they don't think the food is that great.
176
Listen, Chinese food is good, but let's not pretend here that everybody loves every single dish.
177
It is vastly different from, for example, what people would eat in the US on a daily basis.
178
All right.
179
And so you have a certain type of content creator right now,
180
really capitalizing and exploiting on the China popularity trend right now.
181
As an example, there are a lot of advertisers that want to spend money on these types of creators.
182
You'll see it a lot.
183
You go through Red Note and you'll see, wow, this is the best dish I ever had in my entire life.
184
Wow, this Chinese coffee.
185
Wow, we have espresso back in my home country.
186
This is much better.
187
Listen to me.
188
Listen to me.
189
Okay?
190
Are we really going to pretend like a fast food chain of coffee that's probably really,
191
really, really cheap, good, convenient, but let's not pretend it's the highest quality bean here, is better than a high -quality,
192
traditionally roasted coffee or espresso back in your country where coffee is revered in a tradition
193
and has a lot of expertise? and love and passion put into it?
194
No, it's not.
195
For the most people, it's not.
196
And for people that understand coffee culture, it's not.
197
But you know what is delicious?
198
That nice paycheck you're getting.
199
It's always about the money, baby.
200
There is so much content like this right now of foreigners in China talking about how this is amazing, that is amazing.
201
And what's strange to me is that there's also a large audience for this as well, a very large audience for this as well.
202
But I think that, yes, it is interesting to see somebody else from a different place enjoying your culture,
203
absolutely for sure, especially because there is definitely not as many foreigners in China as there used to be.
204
but a few once in a while is one thing but then all of a sudden a lot more than before
205
hundreds more than before people don't speak a word of chinese
206
and all of a sudden that's their whole content
207
now something is a little off don't you think don't you think now
208
there's a lot of good ones as well don't get me wrong for example
209
if you want to follow a great content creator, my friend Sam, a British guy.
210
Hello, governor.
211
Port of water.
212
Sorry, Sam.
213
My friend Sam, this is a guy that has been living in China for a long time, a long, long time, learned Chinese in China,
214
really understands Chinese culture, speaks fluent Chinese, someone that has really embraced the culture, learned the language, and again,
215
has really become Chinese in himself.
216
Now, when I see content like that from people like that, I tend to trust them a bit more,
217
just a bit more validity to their claims, right?
218
But if we're talking about all of a sudden the random person that just got to China today is like,
219
oh my God, the most amazing place ever.
220
Look at this.
221
It's amazing.
222
Clickbait, trying to make money, trying to get views, don't fall for it, okay?
223
It's funny because years ago, years ago, I believe maybe,
224
I'm going to say over eight years ago, six or eight years ago,
225
there was a big backlash actually against foreigners that would use Chinese social media.
226
And that backlash was that there were a few content creators where all their content was, I love China.
227
I love China.
228
I love China.
229
And then there'd be a large amount of people.
230
They have huge following, huge video numbers saying, well, this foreigner is good.
231
He really loves China.
232
How do I know?
233
Because he said it.
234
He said it.
235
This would eventually become what they called a traffic password.
236
In Chinese, that translates to a traffic password.
237
What that means is that if you say these words in a video, you are guaranteed to get good numbers and good traffic.
238
So let's just use that formula.
239
And that went on for a while until literally, I forgot exactly when.
240
And Chinese people were like, no, you don't.
241
You don't love China.
242
You're just trying to capitalize.
243
You're just trying to save these things because you just want to make money.
244
So I think it will be interesting to see where all this goes right now.
245
I think it will be very interesting to see if there will be any backlash or if things might change,
246
which I'm kind of hopeful about as well.
247
Again, I've been living in China for a long time I am Chinese
248
I'm an American -born Chinese But I have family here I've been living here for over 20 years
249
And Recently, China has made it a lot, lot easier for you to travel here visa -free,
250
made it easier for you to get around, made it easier for you to make payments, and that's a big thing.
251
China really needs to work on more acceptance of credit cards because overseas, credit card is king, and they are making it easier.
252
So I am definitely excited about what this holds for the future, that people will come here,
253
see this amazing country, see the sites, judge it for yourself.
254
You like it, you like it, you hate it, you hate it.
255
That's totally fine, but definitely give it a shot.
256
Now, besides all that stuff, besides the political content creators,
257
besides the I love
258
China content creators, there's a few things also that I think has become worse on the Chinese social media side. So, a few things.
259
As more Western content creators are coming to the Chinese side,
260
they are discovering a dark fact of life.
261
And that is, hey, how come when I post my videos on the Chinese side, they get banned right away?
262
Why is it that I'm getting a copyright strike when I posted this all, when I, when I, when I,
263
when I post this, hey, wait a minute.
264
Wait, oh my God.
265
Why is there an account pretending to be me?
266
Why is there an account that's already posted on my videos?
267
Wait a minute.
268
Why is there an account in China that's already put subtitles on my videos.
269
Copyright is a huge, huge issue on Chinese social media.
270
And I think even for the average Chinese person, obviously everyone's algorithm is a little different.
271
But if you swipe, you'll notice something.
272
If you swipe and you see a video of someone that doesn't look Chinese speaking English, but there's a lot of subtitles on the video,
273
take a look at the account.
274
It most likely is not the original content creator.
275
It most likely is somebody that stole, yes, stole the video from that person's account
276
and repurposed it to post it on their Chinese social media account for them to get followers
277
and sums and possibly monetize as well.
278
This is a huge issue.
279
And as these Chinese apps are really making a big pull to pull these creators in, something's got to give, right?
280
Because as an example, if you wanted me to come to one of these platforms, for example, the platform contacts me,
281
tells me they have a great plan to get me involved, to an incentive, blah, blah, blah.
282
I'd say, great, fantastic.
283
I look it up.
284
I find all my videos already there.
285
Well, the first thing I'm going to say the platform is, yeah, I will join your platform, but you need to get rid of these channels.
286
You need to delete all of these videos. Is that fair?
287
If you ask me as a content creator, absolutely.
288
If you steal my content, if you download my content, you steal it without my consent,
289
I will get you and I will copyright strike you if the method exists.
290
And this is the big thing.
291
This is the big issue.
292
You see, even on the Western side of social media, this happens all the time as well.
293
But in reality, only YouTube has a true robust tool to really find these copycats,
294
copyright strike them, and get their channels terminated.
295
I do it weekly because every week, some dumbo is downloading my stuff without my consent,
296
never asked me, and they're downloading my video, repost it.
297
Sometimes they don't even add anything.
298
They don't even app me, and they pretend that they're, oh, I made this original content, or maybe they'll put a few subtitles,
299
to put a caption or some music.
300
Thieves.
301
Thieves.
302
And yes, you, you are a thief if you do this as well.
303
And so what's about to happen is that something has got to give.
304
Because a lot of these
305
Western content creators, especially the big names, are going to realize that on a platform like
306
Billy Billy, Red Note, the ones that are open to them, there's a lot of channels here that have already stolen their content.
307
that have already downloaded it, edited it, added Chinese subtitles to localize it, already gained a massive audience.
308
So what happens from here?
309
Well, that's entirely up to the platform.
310
And if you ask me, yes, I'll have some empathy here.
311
It does suck in a sense if somebody dedicated their time to building a channel,
312
You know, but what doesn't suck is that now if this issue does become a key issue for platforms like
313
Billy Billy to combat piracy, that means that now if these laws get better, if these rules get stricter,
314
the quality of content from everybody gets better because they are now protected.
315
because now these accounts like this that don't have an ounce of creativity can't rely on stealing anymore. But maybe I'm wrong.
316
You tell me what your thoughts are.
317
Let me know.
318
Because prior to Bilibili opening up to the Western world, that's all we had before.
319
It's funny because YouTube is not accessible in China.
320
But a lot of people say, why do I need YouTube?
321
We already have all the YouTube videos here.
322
because there are so many channels on Bilibili that just literally rip the channels from YouTube and post it in China.
323
They repost it.
324
There is literally a channel, I think it's called the best of YouTube on Bilibili.
325
And these channels, I think, are about to find a hard lesson coming up.
326
But we'll see, maybe not.
327
And I think this will be a really key issue to see.
328
Well, if Bilibili wants to go global, well, you got to protect these foreign content creators, right?
329
And perhaps here, that's where the clash will happen. But who's to say?
330
None of my business.
331
But yes, if I do see you're stealing my content, I will strike you down, get your account banned.
332
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
333
Another issue I think is really important.
334
So there's a lot of stuff that you cannot post in China.
335
I'm not going to get into the serious political stuff or that stuff.
336
It is what it is.
337
But one thing that is not available in China, and I have to think about it.
338
I have to think about how I'm about to word this right now.
339
You cannot watch videos of people doing things with each other that adults usually do with each other.
340
Those videos are not available here, okay?
341
They're not available here.
342
You may have your ways.
343
I don't know, but I'm just saying they're blocked.
344
They're banned, okay?
345
And because of that, even the insinuation,
346
for example, if somebody is maybe showing too much cleavage or if they are showing maybe a little bit too much skin,
347
these are easy ways to get your videos censored as well.
348
Not censored, but sometimes just the traffic will get restricted.
349
Or you might get a warning.
350
But I've come to realize, and I don't know when this happened exactly, within the last few years,
351
Chinese social media has gotten a lot spicier, a lot sexier, dare I say.
352
And I am seeing a lot more straight up half nude men or women in my feeds, mostly women.
353
There might be a dude there once in a while, but I get away from that, okay?
354
I don't want to see that, okay?
355
A lot of women.
356
And honestly, in very skimpy outfits, showing a lot of skin, showing a lot of everything.
357
And it wasn't like this before.
358
And I think there's good and bad to this.
359
Now, hear me out.
360
First of all, Instagram has been like this for ages, for ages.
361
And how do I say this by being completely respectful?
362
I will say this.
363
My concern is not about these women and what they're doing.
364
First of all, it's their body.
365
It's their life.
366
They can do whatever they want.
367
I don't care, right?
368
It's not affecting me in any negative way.
369
It's not hurting me.
370
And it's not against the law, I think.
371
I'm not sure.
372
My concern is this.
373
It wasn't as prevalent as it is right now.
374
And I think the biggest issue is that young people are on these apps.
375
and if a 11 -year -old girl sees that type of content of somebody being overtly sexual,
376
showing a lot of skin,
377
possibly getting money in the shape of gifts from a live stream or from a video or tips or,
378
hey, maybe from private messages and stuff offline as well or, I don't know, outside the app.
379
What precedent does that set for then these younger girls when they see content like that?
380
Is it a good thing?
381
Is it a bad thing?
382
I don't know if I am qualified to talk exactly about that.
383
You know, I believe very much in, of course, a woman's right to express herself,
384
a man's right as well to express herself any way they want.
385
There's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
386
And again, in the West, we have the rise of many different types of platforms and ways to make money that way.
387
But all I'm saying is that it has gotten a lot worse in China the last few years.
388
Way worse than it used to be.
389
And I don't know if this is a restriction of the rules.
390
I don't know if it's that culture is changing.
391
Because remember, again, this is usually the younger generation now.
392
You have to remember that
393
China has changed dramatically recently, whereas China used to be more traditional and conserved and quieter.
394
Now it's becoming a new age, a new generation of people that are more exposed and more and whatnot.
395
And so now the newer generation now wants to express themselves in many different ways.
396
And I think that's a beautiful thing.
397
Again, my only concern is that if a younger girl or boy sees these things, how does that affect them?
398
How does that affect their mindset?
399
How does that affect their thoughts towards their futures?
400
I'm not saying that's a bad future.
401
I'm just saying that is it the best choice?
402
I don't know.
403
Not for me to say.
404
I can say that my opinion is that it can be easy.
405
In fact, there are creators like that, man and woman, that make a lot of money,
406
a lot of money, showing a lot of skin and things like that.
407
But because it's an easy way, it can be easy.
408
I'm not going to say it's an easy thing, but it's a low barrier to entry is the best way for me to say,
409
because anyone with a phone can do it.
410
It's a low barrier to entry.
411
I just wanted to end up where that becomes a norm
412
and possibly like one of the first choices to pursue something like that.
413
Now, I might be wrong in what I'm saying, and I apologize if I offend anyone with what I'm talking about right now,
414
but it is a concern I have, and that's all.
415
That's all.
416
Especially because you have to understand that me being here and trying to notice these things, I am seeing the trend change a lot.
417
And of course, you can tell me what your thoughts are in the comments, All right.
418
And keep it civil.
419
Now, what are my thoughts on Chinese social media going forward?
420
You know, they talk a lot about Chinese apps and,
421
for example, not having these other apps available in China, right?
422
You know, you can't easily access Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, et cetera, et cetera.
423
You have these homegrown platforms.
424
On one aspect of it, yes, it is a sense of, you know, not being able to access something.
425
But I also do believe that,
426
in a sense, too, it does allow these platforms to really build a base and become a player in the market.
427
So with the case of Billy Billy Billy Billy is not a YouTube knockoff.
428
No way.
429
It is very different in a way in a lot of ways.
430
It has a large focus on anime and gaming.
431
It is a lot more niche in a sense and if you really are interested in long -form content about China
432
that's a platform for you.
433
Can it be a competitor with YouTube?
434
I hate to say it, but I don't think anyone can be a competitor with YouTube, especially when it comes to monetization,
435
pay, and also making a living out of doing it.
436
But, again, competition is always a good thing.
437
It is always good to have another player out there, and we'll see.
438
These are just some thoughts and the pros and the cons I've had about Chinese social media recently.
439
And for you, if you're watching right now, it doesn't matter if it's about China or any other country.
440
You can tell me about the things I've talked about today.
441
What are your thoughts?
442
What do you think about what I said today?
443
Please let me know.
444
I'd love for you to share your thoughts and feedback with me, okay?
445
Now, man, I just realized I say now a lot.
446
Let's talk about something else right now.
447
So again, if you're just with us right now, our format generally is as follows.
448
So we have a main subject for the channel.
449
We have a main subject for each episode.
450
And then I kind of talked about how my day has been going recently.
451
And sometimes answers some of your questions as well.
452
And I want to say to everybody that the John Pang show is growing fast.
453
And I'm growing as well.
454
I'm still learning so much right now, especially about how to grow the channels,
455
how to reformat content, how to market in different ways and sometimes I feel like, man, I just don't have enough time,
456
but I'll tell you what, everybody, seeing the growth of the podcast has been incredible and in a lot of ways has really
457
reignited my passion for creating content.
458
And the fact that you can watch me or listen to me talk for an hour is insane.
459
You're insane.
460
I'm insane.
461
We're insane together.
462
And I am just so thankful and so blessed to have you here with me.
463
Okay.
464
Uh, every week when, sorry, let me sit up a little bit.
465
Every week, every week when we launch our episode on the Chinese side,
466
our episode is generally in the top 10 of rising episodes or new creators of the week or month.
467
And it's a very exciting feeling.
468
It's a very validating experience.
469
We're still working on the Western side with YouTube and Spotify and Apple, but it takes time.
470
It takes time.
471
Sometimes I look at the success of some of these huge podcast channels
472
and I forget that they've been doing this for years.
473
This is only episode 11.
474
So we still have some time.
475
So, recently I went traveling.
476
It's been a while.
477
I recently went to a city called Changsha in China, in the Hunan province.
478
And I got to say, the food was fantastic.
479
Very nice city.
480
Very cool place.
481
If you've never traveled to China before, there's a few destinations you have to go to.
482
Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu.
483
Some people would say Shenzhen.
484
I think Shenzhen has become more popular recently.
485
I don't really know what you would do in Shenzhen.
486
I guess you could see like robots and tech and the fake electronic market.
487
Not fake, the cheap electronic market, whatever you want to call it, okay?
488
I believe that's also where every stolen iPhone in the world eventually goes to die.
489
Okay, so you can go see if you can find your iPhone that you lost or that got stolen from years ago.
490
But Changsha is a really cool place.
491
Hunan food, if you don't know, is spicy.
492
And I love it.
493
I feel like Hunan cuisine, if you don't know, is very spicy and usually like a light oily spicy,
494
a lot of stir -fried spicy, and a lot of like dry spicy.
495
Whereas to me, like food from Chengdu or Sichuan, if you're American, you probably say Sichuan,
496
like Sichuan cuisine, what they called in like Los Angeles.
497
To me, Sichuan cuisine is more oily spicy.
498
and Hunan's more dry spicy.
499
If you are from any of these places, if you're Chinese, I'm getting it wrong.
500
Sorry, sorry, my bad.
501
That's just how I feel about it, okay?
502
But I gotta say, Hunan cuisine on top of white rice,
503
oh, like a stir -fried pork in some chilies.
504
Ooh, wait.
505
The best dish I had there, I can't believe I'm going to say this.
506
Literally, stir -fried eggs.
507
Stir -fried, like, boiled eggs, not like scrambled eggs.
508
Stir -fried eggs in, like, a chili sauce, chili pepper, like a little crunchy on top of rice.
509
This is one of the best dishes I've ever had in my own life.
510
I didn't realize eggs could taste so good, especially stir -fried fantastic really amazing but my main complaint with Changsha China
511
holy beep
512
so many people so so many people my friends
513
if you never travel to China before okay there are two times you definitely do not want to travel.
514
Do not travel during national holiday, which is generally during October, and spring festival, which is generally like in February.
515
These are the world's largest migration of people because there's Chinese people traveling everywhere domestically in China.
516
And if you go there, there is a term in Chinese called 人山人海, which is people mountain, people see,
517
which means people, as far as the eye could see, packed like sardines.
518
And I don't know what it was, the time I went to Hunan this time, I think it's because it was the end of summer vacation,
519
like the last vacation time, kids are out.
520
There were so, so, so many people there.
521
It was insane.
522
I can't believe how many people were there.
523
so packed so crowded i i for me i i think
524
because i i'm a content creator because i i create
525
so much content i kind of sometimes prefer like more like low key
526
and chill this was just way too many people but aside from
527
that really cool place it's definitely like a a city
528
that even like at three o 'clock in the morning there are still like families walking
529
and like eating at restaurants really cool, really interesting.
530
But anyways, you can all tell me what is another place I could travel to in China, okay?
531
All right, ladies and gentlemen, that does it for another episode of The John Pang Show.
532
Remember, everybody, please like the video, like the podcast, like the audio.
533
Please subscribe.
534
The most important thing you can do for me, everybody, please leave a comment.
535
Watch a little longer, but definitely leave a comment for me.
536
When you leave a comment for me, when you like it, commenting is better.
537
Liking is okay, but when you leave a comment, that type of engagement really helps the podcast.
538
And then from there, I will also try my best to respond to you as well.
539
That helps me grow.
540
And I am trying to be a top podcast.
541
I need your help.
542
So if you generally like me, you like my stuff, please share your support.
543
I'd appreciate it.
544
With that said, thanks again, and I'll see you next time.
545
Bye.

القواعد في هذا الفيديو
أكثر التراكيب التي يستخدمها المتحدث، مع العبارات نفسها من الفيديو:
| التركيب | في الفيديو |
|---|---|
| المضارع التام المستمر have/has been + -ing — حدث بدأ سابقًا وما زال مستمرًا | I've been living · has been living · has been going |
| الجمل الشرطية if + جملة، will/would + فعل — شرط ونتيجته | if you swipe, you'll notice · if you ask me, yes, I'll have |
| “used to” used to + فعل — عادة أو حالة في الماضي لم تعد قائمة | used to be |
| المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن | have gone · have said · I've seen |
نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 145 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل I'm, don't, you're. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- أصوات “th”: thief /ˈθiːf/, algorithm /ˈælɡəɹɪðm̩/, thankful /ˈθæŋkfəl/, empathy /ˈɛmpəθi/
- أصوات “sh” و“zh”: dish /dɪʃ/, backlash /ˈbækˌlæʃ/, passion /ˈpæʃən/, vacation /veɪˈkeɪ.ʃən/, migration /maɪˈɡɹeɪʃ(ə)n/
- الكلمات الطويلة — انتبه لموضع النبر: competitor /kəmˈpɛt.ɪ.tɚ/, differently /ˈdɪf.ə.ɹənt.li/, accessible /əkˈsɛs.ɪ.bəl/, infrastructure /ˈɪnfɹəˌstɹʌkt͡ʃə/, destination /dɛstɪˈneɪʃən/
أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: spicy /ˈspaɪsi/, pretend /pɹəˈtɛnd/, podcast /ˈpɑdˌkæst/, copyright /ˈkɑpiˌɹaɪt/, competitor /kəmˈpɛt.ɪ.tɚ/
- /v/ — ليس /f/: مع اهتزاز الأوتار الصوتية: overseas /ˌoʊvɚˈsiːz/, vacation /veɪˈkeɪ.ʃən/, convenient /kənˈviː.niənt/, province /ˈpɹɔv.ɪns/, sensitive /ˈsɛn.sɪt.ɪv/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: creator /kɹiːˈeɪ̯təː/, steal /stiːl/, spicy /ˈspaɪsi/, stir /stɝ/, fry /fɹaɪ/
كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ردّد جملة جملة بالسرعة العادية، وكرّر كل جملة حتى يتطابق إيقاعك مع المتحدث.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل creator, steal, spicy.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
