You are such a shameless villain! Deliberate slander and slander! Where is your conscience? People like you have no bottom line! You are such a shameless blogger! Slander China? Will you make progress yourself? What is your purpose? You know best! Not for political purposes! Not for money! I betrayed my conscience! Sell your personality!
Did you know that new employees working in mainland China are now forced to participate in military training? Includes financial and industrial sectors. Across the country, now my friends are fleeing China.
@@Prosp_Fake news, China has 1.4billion people, and only 2millions soldiers. It's hard for a young man who want to join the military even of he wants to
To clear it out, this isn’t a mandatory camp, this is an actual summer camp, kids love tanks, guns and that kind of stuff, it’s a great experience
Same
Bs, it is mandatory,i been there you dumb f
its commie propaganda
Doesn't look like a "great experience" for that fat kid.
Yeah we have something similar to that in my country to seeing tanks and guns and military helicopters up close is doop
The little girl might have some issues with her hand and eyes but defently not her brain, She is so well spoken
so true
😂
mhm
she is sophisticated at such age. she even knows how to express herself in the way you have to read between the lines.
@@ericluk68 proves the superiority of the Chinese education system, rest of the world can learn a thing or two from them
14:24 my bro calls his mother and first he hears "What do u weight now" lmao
Chinese parents have no chill...only care about results lmao, this is exactly how my parents would be and we havent been to china in 2+ generations probably 3
Asian parents for real lol
😂 It is the tough love.
I went to a Chinese Military Camp in China for one week back in the 2000s when I was around 10. It was not as luxurious as this. We were sleeping in rooms where there were no AC, had to do night hikes at 3am in the morning, ate crappy cafeteria food, and walking drills for days, and no contact with the parents. The only good things that was fun was going to a shooting range and shooting a real rifle as well as riding on the back of a tank.
You think it is a real boot camp ? It just is a holiday training camp for the slightly disability young teenager only .
@@ylm5865
His comment - "It was not as luxurious as this"..... in relation to what is shown in the video.
Your reply - "You think it is a real boot camp ?"
China 2000s was not as developed as 2020s China. In fact, its economy was lower than Italy.
China rise is incredibly fast... And so is their ambition.
The New World Order.
I hope instructor Wang gets his chance to study abroad. Love his reasons on why he wants to travel
As a Grandfather student.
IF he has relations with a party official, he could
@@justsomeplantcells-nah he only needs some money
@@justsomeplantcells-blud has no idea what he’s talking about 💀
@@leonzspotg eh, idk, my girlfriend is chinese and she's said herself the only reasons she's able to study in America is cause her parents work in the government :b
ruirui's mom was so motivating on the phone call, she seems like a good parent if the translation was right
I speak chinese. Whilst the translation was accurate, the tone of her voice I found was slightly harsh. Maybe they're used to talking like this at home, who knows. If anything, Baoli's mother sounded way more encouraging.
they have this in canada. i was in army cadets but theres air cadets and sea cadets. in army cadet camps first is basic training, so u might shoot once or twice, reading maps, standard and emergency first aid, abseiling, search and rescue and of course drill. its a lot of fun and once u get older u can do stuff like the para course ( jump out of planes) , jungle survival where u go to other countries and live in the jungle, mountain survival, arctic survival, shooting camp. they got everything. honestly i loved it. tons of fun
I went to General Training and Basic Expedition with bravo company, both Argonaut. General training marksmanship was lackluster as we have no combat simulations similar to the ones seen in this video, and only shoot daisy pellet guns. Expedition entailed no marksmanship whatsoever, but we were issued combat fatigues and boots, along with rucksacks, which brought a lot more of a 'military' feel to the whole thing. Ended up ditching cadets after covid, my local cadet corps had became infamous with accepting less than physically or mentally capable individuals and giving them leadership roles.
" As the internet is also censored , young people see next to nothing of the world outside of China "
LOL......😁
Typical Western propaganda.
Ever heard of vpn.....they are more tech savvy than you think..
This narrator is definitely working for the Western propaganda sector.
He has got all the talking points.
and you never learned how to speak correct English.
Better than dragqueen story hours
better than west child learn how to become lgbt++++ 😂😂😂
Fr man im just saying
lol true
So true
Could not be more right
Those kids were spoiled with lots of bad habits in the beginning. The aim of sending them to the summer camp was to help them to be a better person. It was their parents who wanted to send them to the summer camps run by private business. It is more and more popular as people's life in China is getting better and better, people getting rich and spoil their children. More and more kids spend hours and hours playing smart phones, watching Tiktok videos instead of having sports or study. That's why this is a trend to send kids into those camps. Not the 'camp' as you imagined.
Every Millenial knows that feel of "Baoli getting up"
Ruirui is awesome. such a smart and strong young lady. Wanted to make her dad happy and set her sights on the ice cream reward.
Yes, when she said "love you" to her mother, to be honest, I was still a little surprised, because in our Chinese culture, people are usually more shy and don't usually say things like "I love you" directly. Instead, they believe that actions speak louder than words. For example, helping your mother with housework as a child is a way of showing love for your mother. Maybe times have really changed and people's concepts have changed. However, this also shows that she lives in a loving family. Congratulations to her.
I hope these experiences will bring them courage, perseverance and unity, rather than preparing to send them to battlefield.
We need a safer and more peaceful international environment for our children.
Are you joking?The children will escape toThe West........not in battlefield😂😂😂😂
@@chengshouyun you mean ukraine？
@@chengshouyunescape why? Majority of the ones coming here are wanted criminals, and most of their asylum petitions are fraudulent, by their own admission.
@@user-eq9vk7ql6o China😂😂😂
To many people here in China,you could hardly get accepted by the military even if you applied for it🤣.it's because there are many policies that you could benefit from joning troops such as free university education,and a salary of estimated 500usd a month etc.
Many Chinese parents choose summer camps(paid)simply to find a excuse to get rid of there children and have vacations themselves lol. I joined one myself when I was young. When ever I call them thery ware like : your mom and I were having fun,keep up with your training😇
Seeing Riuriu cry on the phone was super sad.
remember boys and girls......dont think too much !
Ironic because Americans are also brainwashed by their culture and society...if you think this isnt going on in America - well, its because they want you to think this isnt going on in america 😊
The most important goal for these children to learn to be independent and understand they will possibly be future defender for homeland against foreign invaders.
Made in China aka junk.
Native speaker and watching this subtitles and narration is a joke ahahhaahahah
Its a boot camp for kids to instill discipline , but they make it sound like they are training death squads for ww3 in the next decade
The narrative even add in some own stuff and said that's what the woman said...just hear that last sentence of this video....hahaha
It's all junk propaganda at this point. They are even trying to be subtle about it.
I'm pretty sure most countries have a version of this. UK, NZ and AU have cadets, America has ROTC. this is pretty normal. the only unusal thing here is that none of the kids in this video look like they are going to live past 22
True
A few look like they have the habsburg coefficient going on too.
😂@@thepopcornmonger3434
Canada as well. Really good program. If you put politics, and international tensions aside, the programs provide great skill for the kids. That's only with a Western Experience from myself.
@@estefankarau7007 Cadets is indeed a great program! Ive been in the RCACS for 6 years now, aging out soon. But i hopefully get to go to glider camp this summer!
“Listen! Be leader not follower, aim high okay. Now salute me and go.”
That a 100% Asian mom right there. 😂
Ruirui is so smart and well spoken omg a little queen indeed! Loved her so much 💖💐👸I hope she succeed in learning english too!
i was thinking the same thing. she’s turning perceived weakness into strength
she is just like ours 🇺🇸🦅
She creeps me out.
@@86satherstrength to kill US citizens lol. Do you see what's happening in the world?
does she have downsyndrome?
I bet that those instructors weren't that nice when there's no TV crew filming.
The boys crying looked staged when the one was leaving early.
They arent priests.
They are always like that chinese don't give a shit about cameras, same to usa and everybody else we act nice when camera is on,
And yall always have something bad and negative to say about china. Isn't that jealousy?
to be somewhat fair they probably want to toughen the kids up. The current generation of children are a little spoiled because their parents grew up in harder times, so they don't want that for their children. They should maybe show a little more empathy though for the kids who have had it easy because it's a hard transition for them.
@@fastestdino2 The rhetoric of "We had it harder, so you should too" is so out of touch anywhere in the world. There is nothing fair with forcing the next generation to take on unnecessary hardship just because the previous generation feels sorry for themselves and the mistakes they were a part of. In this case it is not toughening them up, it is military indoctrination, designed to foster a generation that will throw themselves at the "enemy" as soon as nationalistic ideals take root.
they build a strong generation
Did they look strong to you? They looked obese and retarded
Can you speak English?
1:10 Gotta love the Fury tank! Nice 😅
Poor RuiRui she isn't even mentally capable of carrying a rifle but she is very athletic and seems to be a great team mate I bet she will make a great athlete but not soldier.
I wish you interviewed Baoli and the other kid on why they were so fond of Instructor Zhang.
They're brainwashed and communist, you tell me?
What are you incinuating?

No matter where ever u go on the planet. Mothers always go outa their way to give the best for their babies !
What an amazing upload I saw this and was like ok i'll bite. Glad I did ! Love these amazing Chinese kids. Kids be proud you did great. And instructor Wang you do have a foreign friend here in US!
Bro! I think this should be for every country!
Wonderful! 💪
one day, arte will be able to document a subject without showing signs of political party. I believe in it
The same camps are organized much closer to the heart of Europe, namely in Poland.
Also in Russia.
Poland very dangerous...it can start ww3
Except those in Poland didn't do it for Communist Party or the expansionism of Poland.. while in China, this was done for Communist Party of China (CPC) and the current expansionism of China in various southeast asia's sea
What are you taking about?
The military youth training camps / vacations are 100% bank rolled by the Polish regime. @@Etendard1708
@@haveaseatplease 1.) The polish one vows to the country/governmeny but not to the party as China does, 2.) Poland is not expansionist.. while China is currently being expansionist especially to the northern India border & southeast Asia seas.
Meanwhile American and British Gen Z have problem gendering themselves.
This is one of the best documentaries I've seen of late. These young boys and girls are going through hard times but it will be worth it after they leave the camp. I wish children in my country Pakistan get even one percent of attention and discipline as these children.
This is amazing👍👍
instructor seems like a great guy
Bao li such a G, like a little Chinese Biggie
Some parents do admire chinese military tradition and wish their children to learn
Baoli was back to square one by the end of the show...lounging in the car.🤣🤣😂
To be fair he’s in a fucking car what else is he gonna do besides sit there and wait to arrive at his destination…
@@Falcon_Serbialmao good point...idk why but defending the little chinese kid even though you have a trump pic is hilarious
I hope people realize these kids choose to go on their own, just like any other summer camp. Its just for fun and not some sort of propoganda.
finally someone making videos about this
Finally White Colonail are shift in their pants.......!!!!!!!!!
In india we have National Cadet Corps (NCC)
Should change them to the Toilet Scrubbing Brigade.
😂 those are adults who lift benches in colleges, you can call them unpaid labours 🤣 these kids are breed for war
@@abenthung9378These kids are breed for war 😂😂😂
The only thing Chinese Military can boast about is Fighting vietnamese & Filipino Fishermans lol. Sissy Chinese
@@abenthung9378that's because they are at school getting training on weekends while you are at home watching Doraemon. So you basically only see them lifting benches during function. You never seen them training with reak weapons like guns.
In India we got the NCC its the same but we get to practice with live rounds. Plus if we attend 3 camps we get 3 certificates A B and C This helps alot with getting selected into military and offers other benefits
Is it the same age group?
Say what u want these kids are tough God Bless China and US for peace
Wish i had this growing up it's cool
that lyrical lemonade shirt goes hard asf
In USA, they attend dragqueen events and gender woke confrences
Ahaha the truth
No they don't
😂😂😂
Just like UK with its sea cadets, Air cadets and Army cadets. Scouts and rangers. US has similar as do most Commonwealth Countries. Its a great idea to build confidence discipline and courage.
But this film make it sound like it's strange China training child soldiers is unnatural
This should be made mandatory for kids given the turmoil in the external arena
the kids surely need such a healthy holiday camp. Obesity is becoming a problem in a once very healthy society with McDonalds and KFC!
McDonalds and KFC are the least of the problems that 'society' is facing
If your child is overweight, the problem is probably in the parents who feed the child.
Kids can't eat McDonalds or KFC everyday unless the parents allow it.
On top of that, kids often follow an example and choose the more tastier options if allowed to, so if the parents themselves aren't leading an healthy example and teaching their kids the importance of exercise and healthy food, the kids won't choose a healthier life style.
That's a direct result of bad parenting. That's like blaming a gun manufacturer for a shooting.
We had Mcds and KFC when I was a kid, Ate it all the time, also lots of mac n cheese and pizza, but… I played lots of sports growing up and was NOT tied to a cell phone or gadget playing games.. Its a personal choice to exercise and be healthy, its not free, takes lots of dedication.😊
@@ChubbyDutchy You know so much about China. Have you even been to China?
I like how they have the American tank fury in the camp 😂
It is not the same tank. Idk why on earth they would name it and paint it with American markings. But its a T-34-85. Fury was an M4A3E8 Sherman portraying a M4A2E8 Sherman.
its not "the tank" its a bad replica
@@shadowresponder I figured it wasn’t the actual tank but I just meant they had a replica of it.
I really hope Baoli will find the strenght to stand up against his mother and pursue his own dreams later in life. Succes little man!
It is the typical parent-child relationship in Chinese (and in general, Asian) culture.
Baoli's mom is the best mom I have seen. She loves her truly I can see that. She is not harsh because she hates her. She is being harsh because she knows one day her son will have to face reality and when that day comes he must know how to stand up for himself.
@@serene_actual i thought the same, apparently setting your kid up is being harsh
asian culture are different from west bro. our way are strict and fierce. more discipline and hardwork than other culture. this is normal
@@rajaal-hady7746 I'm white and I had the same type mom... It doesn't always work out, not every kid needs a military style upbringing. I can speak out of experience.
>the fury tank
>counterstrike
>to fat to get a gf
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
now the kids of china realise the hard of bieng a military citizen and i proud of them as a phl cetizen salout for the scouts
The girl has issue with her hand is sophisticated at such age. She even knows how to express herself in the way you have to read between the lines.

16:05 so cute and confusing at the same time 😄
Yeh she’s an odd one but pretty cool
@@devondetroit2529 She is able to express high emotions without emotion. There's definitely a niche somewhere for such talent 😄
“Increasing isolation “ got me thinking till I realized whose channel am watching
Baoli’s face at the end: what we gon do this again???
In the UK its called Cadets (Army, Navy, Royal Marines or Air).
No, the camp or the whole activity in this video is more like Scout camp, purely commercial one, having nothing to do with the real military force.
@@jonathanma5365 ok 👍🏻
i find it funny the tank gun had FURY written on it

Nice access.
Meanwhile US Children still confuse about their gender 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wish I was there :(
The Lyrical Lemonade shirt was a surprise. I didn’t know Cole Bennett had the Chinese connect like that
Fr lol
bruh ur telling me we gotta fight against people that have been training since they were 9?!
Chinese training involves only discipline. Their tactics are outdated along with their gear.
@@norfangl3480 i believe china has supersonic missles, usa does not
@@EcoFustionTV hypersonic missiles that can only hit static targets.
Russia has hypersonic missiles. Mind telling me how they're currently performing in Ukraine?
@@norfangl3480 their tactics might be outdated, Chinese weapons are easily up to date and are much more effective than Russian ones, China had managed to make stealth aircraft, effective tanks, and build a large and functional navy, maybe not to the extent the US has, but unlike Russia they have up to date weaponry in their arsenal
这不是真的军营，而是由退役士兵组织的童子军体验营。我的很多战友都在组织这个。太多的孩子被溺爱了。他们不知道如果哪一天战争爆发，他们的日子会是怎么样。我们国家的每个学生都会受到国防教育的军事训练。以防战争爆发。我们的所有青年随时可以转变成士兵。当然，我们有职业的士兵，但如果战争爆发，必然是全民皆兵。

It's a great thing. Military way of life always help to being a good citizen
I feel bad for baby girl. She wanted to go home. I understand. Be strong. Fight for your right to stay there. Have fun even though it's hard. It'll make you better.
They look so sweet with their chubby faces.
Like little teddy bears! 🧸
Watching from Somalia.
Interesting video.
Sort of like a early military training style fit camp to enlighten the youngsters in the country pride and be fit and healthy.
Parents send their kids to these camps for 2 main reasons: they are overweight, or they need disciplining. This documentary did not mention this.
Ruirui seems very smart and intuitive. Sad to her cry. We have military camps and military academy’s here in America. I went to one and appreciate all of its knowledge.
Now let’s hope we don’t have engage in combat because as us marines say. “No better friend , no worse enemy”
Reminds me of the camps in the states, where the poor are in „correctional facilities with military education“ and the others like for vacations „"Junior-Reserve-Officer-Training-Corps“.
Absolutely no difference and since ages in existence.
What are you taking about ya Chinese bot?
@@tinameadows462 Google and watch major pain 😂 ChInEsE BoT 😂😂 what a racist cheap are you? 😂
@@RandomInternetDude5000that’s a comedy movie you twat if you base your real life world views on movies you are a child and a moron
Youth military camps exist in a lot of western countries. Under different terminologies. But China bad. Bah...
@@tinameadows462 although his punctuation and grammar is not the best, this "bot" literally put in quotation marks the main point of his comment, yet you still could not understand, like even in your native language you couldnt take a few seconds to try and process what they were trying to say and address the argument....just goes to show how willfully ignorant the American population is, suburban mom Tina Meadows thinks she knows everything about China because of what some racists said on ABC white anglo news, and yet she cant even address the basic argument - ill help you out, he was simply saying America has similar camps. Now go raise your kids instead of spending time on youtube comments, this is why your kids are shooting up schools, cuz their dumb moms spend their time pushing white anglo racist supremacy agenda and responding to bots on youtube comments - how dumb can you be
With the music of Alexander the great, I will enroll inmediately. They choose wisely the songs to inspire the children
12:33 Interesting that they have English text on the flag
The Chinese propaganda bots in here are insane lmao
Oh no, China bad.

This reminds me of Cadet Kelly with Hillary Duff. Except she was in Military School and this is a one- month camp
15:58 is that a John Cena Reference ??!!💯🤔🤯
😂 Bing means ice I think; I figue ice cream.
If I was a leader of a country I would also do the same because I don't want my people to die needlessly in a conflict I want them to defend themselves ❤
The uk should implement this
Id go here honestly
Seeing how the instructor let this kid run infront of a firearm at 8:33 sums china up pretty much lol, remember even tho a firearm is not loaded, you should always handle it like it is!
Edit: i see that this is a prop, but in a military bootcamp stuff like this should be teached as well
Practice makes perfect
I totally agree with you, I myself ain't a gun owner, but I do a lot of airsoft. We have studied safety stuff and treat our replicas in a way just like how real gun owners will. I have researched quite a bit into these camps and the outcome was that most of these instructors don't even have a bachelor's degree, and despite their military experiences, I still don't think they have enough knowledge about firearm safety, since many conscripts only shoot 2 mags in their entire service time. My biggest concern for these kids will be about child protection as well because as a Chinese person living abroad, I am quite aware of the actions of Chinese parents and instructors, plus these instructors aren't really trained teachers or certified outdoor instructors.
Sums up China? How?
Hopefully they don't all die on beaches in Taiwan. These kids have great potential
I'm in Taiwan and been in the military. Our soldiers will flee in the sight of enemy.
Ouch the tears
4:09 WOAH! 😱
Some say that China is wrong to punish harshly in certain respects. Yet what has negligence and individuality done to America?
It's called freedom
Why single out China when this is just how most traditional societies in the world are. Modern West are used to the political and corporate class controlling society through a sugar coating cultural lense and media appearance.
@@JonathanWang-sv9oo that's called murder
Im not a Chinese but why everyone hate on Chinese people not all are bad (sorry for my bad English)
China is 1000x better than the U$ ! Better educated, better infrastructure and in many other areas
事实是世界上喜欢中国的国家以及人民很多
Most people love Chinese people, not all are bad is true but that's true for every population. I think people here are a bit scared of war and aggression, but that is entirely the Chinese state that drives those fears, not the people. Nobody wants another world war so through fear people blame and hate.
Because of constant western propaganda. The imperialist West fears that Chinese economy overtakes the West, and then the West loses it's ability to be the dictator of the global east and global south. The US government and CIA officially say so in their many documents on their government website. That's why they spread so many lies about China.
"everyone"? What a narrow view. If it's "everyone" then it must be right? You may have heard that the truth is often in the hands of a few people, and more often you have heard that a lie repeated a hundred times will become the truth.
This is a rich kid's game!
There is no way a poor person could sign up for a holiday like this!
Baoli😊
Kids over here would be out of breath by the time they walk out the door.
Next generation of world builders
For kids this young, making them go through way too hard exercises would only teach them to not want to become soldiers in the future, one has to have far more mature standing point to comprehend both the requirements and tasks of a soldier.
Kids in Russia have been taught military practices from a very young age for a long time now already, and you can't really say their performance is shining right now in the ongoing conflict
imagine believing in that bs of a statement
Imagine using Russian's performance in the Ukraine conflict to gauge their military prowess. There's a reason why Russia has been, and is still seen as a huge threat by the US. Part of it is due to nuclear weapons, but that doesn't mean their "army" is lackluster.
Ukrainian forced draft in question
what's this bull? what kind of military practices? do you even live there?
Ukraine only survive due to support from Europe and US, otherwise they become like Palestinians now 😂
Looks more fun and practical than being touched as a boy scout
the tears at 15:00 ;(
Like from a movie
