15 Years in China: You Won't Believe What I've Seen
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- I've been in China for over a decade and a half. You won't believe some of the changes that I've seen. And you won't believe how silly I've looked trying to record them.
Lots more people are starting to visit China right now, and they're beginning to see for themselves what an amazing country this is. Over the last decade and a half, as a Foreigner living in China, I've been able to witness a lot of change. I've been fortunate enough to travel all over and see things that most people haven't had the chance to see and this video shares some of these experiences with you.
Last year I made this video in cooperation with China video platform giant Bilibili, and China Review Studio (In fairness, I've been in China for over 16 years now, but you get the drift).
Hope you like the video. If you do, please hit the LIKE BUTTON and subscribe for more! Stay safe and keep looking after one another.

Thanks!
Thank you so much, this is too kind!
感谢司徒建国在中国15年的体验，那些经历的平凡又伟大的故事和人，感受到的欣喜和感动，河山的美丽与壮阔。再次感谢你体会所有职业时候的用心和认真。加油，下一个15年！
Don't blame you! I first came to China in 2004, went back to Canada with my family for 5 years, and now have returned for good! What an amazing place! So good to see others like myself enjoying the changes and differences in China! Best place to live in my opinion! Thank you for sharing!
What a great work you've done! Thank you so much for introducing the real China to the rest of the world. Respect!
Thank you very much!

Excellent work! Happy Chinese New Year
Thank you! You too!
I love stu's smile , every time, the smile transfers to my face from stu ! 😁😂
☺
I spent more than 2 decades in search of the meaning of life and in my early 40's finally decided to just let life come to me. At the end of the day, I think it's all about how content you lived your life and how many happy memories you've collected. I think you are blessed in your life. Best wishes.
Best wishes to you too!
對生活就是奇妙的
真實體驗今日得來不易中國發展Thank U 司徒👍👍👍
The best and most excellent VLOG I ever seen 👍
真的好感动！谢谢建国让我更加的了解自己的祖国！我为我美丽的中国和她善良的人们而自豪骄傲！💖🤗
I have been following you for a number of years. Thank you for bringing us there. It’s been a wonderful journey watching you doing it so we wouldn’t have to. Thank you Stu. I look forward to many more years of your travels around China. From Singapore.
You are so welcome!
@@TravelinChina跟着你的视频回忆，发现我几乎看遍了你的所有作品，司徒真是太了不起了
太感謝司徒這樣用心體驗並紀錄中國十五年來的變化，然後用這樣的方式呈現在世界面前。我的國家太不容易了，我是中國人，我驕傲！
You are living your life to the fullest. This is extremely rare and so very inspiring to people who watch your videos. Thank you, for the great content and touching moments!
Thanks for the lovely comment
好早的时候就在B站看到你的视频了，记得那时候还叫C2 show还是啥，和大多数人认识你一样是看你对景点垃圾桶玩英式幽默的那段🤣没想到都已经这么久了，但是你还是平平稳稳的不温不火，却一直在坚持。挺佩服你的，感谢你们的创作
C4秀😄
just like what HanMeimei always says: That is absolutely gorgeous!
加油司徒, good job
Great work Setao. The world need more people like you. thanks
True that
Love your vibe of telling China story. Keep up the great work. Your parents must be very proud of you.
your contents are very positive and a lot of fun... thanks for such a great work
Glad you like them!
香港粉絲到🤗
喜歡看你和爸爸媽媽的視頻！❤ 希望很快又能見到你爸媽來中國旅遊！
I was visiting an industrial museum in a European country, and they had a little building with replicas of the living conditions of *workers* from the 1880s to the 1980s or something. And I was looking at this room of the 1920s, and was thinking, an average Beijing urban family would live like this in about 1970 or later. It also said that by the 1960s, fridges and washing machines were common household items in this European country - fridges were somehow still fancy for a Beijing family in the 1980s.
I grew up knowing that China is a developing country and our living standards are a bit lower. But living a rather comfortable life in a big city, I didn't really feel that until that moment at the museum. Once, we were SO behind - and it was not that long ago.
...
There were loads of things that are not quite nice about China - and it's ok to talk about them. But there is no joke when an average family, especially those from smaller towns and rural places, can have such a HUGE rise in living standards over a few decades. And China is still developing - when public facilities are broken, they are fixed quickly (it sounds stupid but it does surprise me when I see broken things stay broken for ages in "developed" countries), the functioning ones are well-maintained, and new facilities and services are coming out on a daily basis. Although things are slowing down a bit, there is hope, and the people will never give up the hope and hardwork for a better life.
...
The world really should see this. Not to boast or compare which is better. But just to know that there is "another" way of living, and the people themselves are happy with it. And also that in the end, we are all so similar. It really shouldn't be about the political vocabulary, it should be about just life. Live and let live
What a comment here!
What a comment here!
This is by far the best TH-cam channel about China. 👏
Wow. Thank you. That's a lovely comment to receive.
@@TravelinChina I believe even Chinese doesn’t know that much about actual China. It’s developing on starships’ speed. I saw many rural areas and variety of professions in a well crafted single video. Keep it up! 🙌
15 years, not easy. Well done Stu. And hope to hear more Beijing accent from you😉
16 now儿
haha! what is now儿@@TravelinChina
Stuart. You are too funny. I love it
Cheers Lawrence
You are such an amazing guy with such a positive attitude in life. God bless. ❤
I absolutely enjoy all your videos and my parents do too. Please continue making more videos! We have learnt lots about China from you. 😁😁
Thank you! Will do!
You're a wonderful singer, love that song you sang in that video, can't understand it but it sounds good. Lol. I look forward to seeing more of China thru your videos and hope you're still enjoying being there. The video when you were feeding the pigs was hilarious, they really look scary.
Love your story, hope you enjoy your life in China, and thank you again for all these amazing videos.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for providing positive and meaningful contents always. Jia You, Stu!
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching
You do NOT look 37! I thought you were in your 20s. What rich and wonderful experiences you have had!
I'm even older now!
@@TravelinChina Happy belated birthday then! 😄
谢谢司徒先生，有你真好！
Stu, you are the BEST; love your self-deprecating humor.
感動您走過、經歷、幫助這麼多的山水，這麼多的文化，這麼多的脫貧、綠色項目⋯⋯
Looking forward to seeing you for another 30 years....
Thaaanks
Wow! 15 years! Looks like you’ve had a wonderful time here, can’t wait to see more ❤
Thanks so much! 😊 I can't wait to see more from you two as well!
Thanks Stu!!!
Thank you!
great job
Love this video. If i was your parents, would say "proud" too cos you've tried so many things that i could only dream of. Keep up the great videos cos am def looking forward to seeing the next one.
I just found your channel and this video brought tears to my eyes, it's beautifully made. Looking forward to seeing your video's!
this is the best moment of your China story and keep going have fun enjoy life PEACE
I think this is one of your best videos to date! Very meaningful and interesting content! Can you explore more jobs in the agricultural sector? What can make these jobs more appealing/rewarding to the younger people seeking employment?
DJI drones are already being used in Xinjiang, China, for agriculture, and they are all operated by young people.
Thank you for all the great videos.
Glad you like them!
这一期好有意思呀 谢谢司徒
Wow! First time watching your video. What you have experienced in China is amazing. Best wishes to China. My parent left China in 1949. I hope to visit someday.
Glad you enjoyed it Helen. Hope you get the chance to visit there soon.
司徒Thanks for your past 15 years in China to share the true and touching story
今天的視頻太有趣了😂
Now this is a proper TH-cam video! it literally took years to film. Nice work mate!
Thank you!
你好厉害👍🏻！
没有
Love you Stu!! and your Mom & Dad, too ❤❤❤
Thank you and may God bless you abundantly 🌻.
What an extraordinary experience. As an authentic Chinese, I never had a chance to do that. Admire that.
感谢司徒记录了这些，你也是个hero
感谢司徒 让我在国外也能通过你的看到祖国的美好变化
Holy wow you've been to so many places and putting it all together to show how these industries grew and brought ppl out of poverty is truly amazing!
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
I love your tshirt that says “looking backwards” when you were summarizing your last 15 years but “looking forward” when you turned around and commented about your future 15 years!
Maybe your translation is a bit too poetic... The literal meaning is look at the back (of the shirt). 😃
@@TravelinChina In Chinese people say “以前”(forward) to refer to the past while “以后”(backward) to refer to the future, and it’s interesting to compare this to English where “looking backwards” refer to the past and “looking forward” refer to the future. Seems like people speaking different languages treat the timeline differently. I guess you’ll have to face the camera with your back all the time if you made this video in Chinese😂
your 15 yr experience in chine is amazing .
Good laughs, thank you.
Glad you liked it.
Good on you to enjoy living and working in China
Fatastic video! I enjoy it, in fact, I love all video in your channel. Full of fun and also touching my heart. I can see more normal people life in China through your videos! Every job shown is a wonderful piece of great China. Thank you for document them in such a lovely way! Appreciate from Singapore!
Thank you very much!
U are so lucky to be an eyes to see and proof how this ancient, progressive and productive civilisation had once again risen up and started to take off in their achievement and adventures in the frontier.
Thank you for sharing! China is so under appreciated.
I will be watching Stu for as long as I live.
Wow 15 years pass by wish you much happiness and fun in China.
Good job 👍 great fun🤣thank you for sharing 👌👏🙏🌹🎈
This is a good quality and meaningful documentary.
感谢你展示中国好的一面

I have been watching your video since so many years ago，I use it to study English. I will keep follow you, and also thank you for telling the China story
You are so happy in China. Good luck.
喜歡看你的視頻😊
Stu, you are the *original*
Looking forward to the next 15 years.
A wonderful brief insight into your 15 years, my 9 years have a lot of living up to do Stu!
Very good video, good experience. Thank you and support you.
Great job Stu. You are so depreciating of your self. Which makes your video funny and interesting 👍👍👍💞💞💞👋👋👋
Thank you 😁
Love this video. If i was your parents, would say "proud" too cos you've tried so many things that i could only dream of. Keep up the great videos cos am def looking forward to seeing the next one. My kids love you too.
Thank you! Will do! Big hello to your kids!
@@TravelinChina def going to rewatch this episode with them so that they flavour the full meaning a big world/network of smaller to make a whole ... beyond standard books.
love you❤
❤
It's a very touching video for me. As a foreigner I've been living in england for 16 years, I had travelled most of the china since I was a kid with my parents, travel alone after I reached 18, then came to england and travel around Europe. I am fascinated by the history, food and people I've met. I can see the change of china from your lens, I'm glad I've been to those famous and non famous places before they were well developed, as not many people nowadays could experience going to a toilet being built above 2 parallel board behind a canvas in deep mountain. 😂 each of us is a witness of history, those highs and lows made our lives and made us grow. Sturt, have you found what you looking for?
great video❤
Glad you liked it Eric
Great Video, Kudos ❤. May the Qi (气) be with you, Happy Dragon Year.
A collage of 15 years of a work well done 👍👍👍 (despite your many hilarious failings 🤣).
Many people can only dream doing what you’re doing.
By the way, you’re wearing your dad’s t-shirt 😊
It was my t-shirt first... Thanks for the lovely comment.
@@TravelinChina👍
Stu you are amazing, thank you for showing us the New beautiful 🇨🇳 ❤❤
You are living the life
Thank you ! Hope pease and fortune for the kindly people
