Why has Chinese Internet Star Li Ziqi Stopped Uploading Videos? from Goldthread on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/goldthread2/videos/2810195119272577/ After a long-standing dispute that lasted for 531 days, Li Ziqi and Weinian, the multi-channel network company that owns her image, have finally reached a settlement under the mediation of Mianyang Intermediate People's Court in southwest #China's Sichuan. On December 27, Weinian announced that the two parties had come to an agreement. As a result, Li Ziqi will be making videos again soon, though it is unclear when exactly she will return, how her content will be presented, and if it will differ in any way from her previous work. Li Ziqi gained millions of followers by sharing videos of her peaceful life in rural Sichuan, in which she often did traditional farm work, cooked in Hanfu, and promoted Chinese culture. #Chineseculture #culture #traditional #ancient #hanfu #clothes #Chinesehanfu #Liziqi from T-Time HK on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hongkongteatime/posts/pfbid02nq93JrYr67SKgy4cC9J7TvrtAJ6GEHEsFNN9H63ymNqL67UriHH16Fk8AvvkFfaHlsFNN9H63ymNqL67UriHH16Fk8AvvkFfaHl Edited September 25, 2023 by Randy W (see edit history) Link to comment

Randy W Posted January 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2023 A Day in a Shanghai Park: See You Next Wednesday Public parks are oases of calm in modern Shanghai. Open, healing, and free for all, they are where people retreat to after a hard day’s work, an argument, or a breakup. They provide the space to calm the body and mind, escape the bustle of the city, and be in the moment — even if it’s just for a few minutes. After Shanghai emerged from a two-month lockdown last year, the city’s public parks were where people rushed back to, for fresh air, freedom, and human connection. In this series, Sixth Tone captures the daily rhythm of life in three of Shanghai’s parks. The third episode captures a group of deaf people meeting up at a corner in Shanghai’s Luxun Park.

Randy W Posted January 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 Square dancing, typically associated with older Chinese women, was just one of the ways students tried to kill time and have fun during extended campus lockdowns due to the pandemic. Other attempts, such as “crocodile crawling” in groups or making paper dogs and walking them on campuses, also went viral and created a sense of connection in a period of isolation. from the Sixth Tone on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/sixthtone/posts/pfbid0BsTEDKESE5Tba7Vou417ZV69a7RRwCSmzeagqmqqko7h9GeTpTD17EWhp2HPvacnl Link to comment
Randy W Posted February 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 This Guy Charmed 3 Million with This Ancient Chinese Horn In many movies about China, you’ve probably heard a high-pitched, “deadly” sound at some point. These squawk-like sounds are made by the suona, a traditional Chinese instrument used at funerals and weddings in China. Most young folks think it's a representation of the old. But this musician shows that the once unhip instrument is actually pretty cool. from Goldthread on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/goldthread2/videos/943206893727435/ This Guy Charmed 3 Million with This Ancient Chinese Horn In many movies about China, you’ve probably heard a high-pitched, “deadly” sound at some point.
