Lovely craftsmanship and the outcome is gorgeous.

The number of sets made like this on an annual basis is likely quite small, tho. Which is just as true of similar items made in any other country.

And so, since I've been seeing a huge influx of these types of very staged, very traditional methods and items, very visually aesthetically pleasing and ASMR-generating, very minimal explanation captioning (and always in English), usually from user discoverchina, videos *all* from China and about traditional Chinese methods/items ... every time I see them, I think "this is propaganda".

Yes, they are beautiful and soothing and the items made are beautiful. But also, what is the goal? What do these videos encourage you to think about China? How much do these videos reflect modern China, their manufacturing, their culture, etc?

holy shit is this gorgeous.

Nanjing, Octobre 2019

Lors de la semaine de fête nationale, toute la Chine voyage aux quatre coins du pays. 

Nous nous sommes rendus dans le Hunan connu historiquement pour être la province natale de Mao Zedong, via Nanjing.

Etant débutants sur le territoire chinois et les applications chinoises, nous avions trouvé par chance des places restantes pour cette destination. En effet, nous avions réussi à nous mettre sur une liste d’attente quelconque, sur une quelconque application.

Nous nous sommes d’abord levés très tôt pour être bien à l’avance pour notre train, car nous ne connaissions pas encore ce que signifie le mouvement de foule lorsque toute la Chine voyage. Je dirais même que nous étions un peu trop à l’avance car tout est si bien organisé.

Tchoutchou...(bruit ferroviaire) 

22 heures de train couchette “dure” depuis Shanghai avec une pause à Nanjing, où la pluie et la foule de nouveau furent au rendez-vous. 

Nanjing est l’ancienne capitale de la Chine. Il y a beaucoup d’écoles de Médecine Chinoise Traditionnelle et de superbe balades à effectuer, notamment sur le lac en naviguant à l’aide de gros canards jaunes. Au mois d’octobre, c’est la fin de saison des nénuphars en fleurs et les érables sont couleurs automne. 

A noter que cette fête nationale est marquée par les 70 ans du Parti, alors nous avions l’honneur d’être sollicités pour prendre des photos de ce genre.

Shooting moment avec notre copine Florence (son nom de scène) dans le wagon restaurant. 

Nous avons beaucoup parlé d’amour et de loisirs avec elle. Elle s’interrogeait notamment sur les différences d’âges dans les couples en prenant pour exemple Emmanuel & Brigitte Macron. Il est de coutume dans les mœurs chinoises que la femme soit plus jeune que son mari. 

De plus, elle pratiquait le Pole Dance et nous montrait nombreuses de ses performances. Les loisirs sont très importants dans la culture chinoise. Depuis tout petits, ils sont inscrits au chant, à la danse, au ping pong... Une des premières questions lorsque vous rencontrez un chinois est : “Ni zuo shenme yundong?”;”Quelles activités pratiques-tu?”. Ils ont beaucoup de centres d’intérêts.
