Video: Everything you need to know about China in 10 minutes

by breningstall
May 5, 2018

Okay, probably not everything you need to know, but this video certainly makes the best attempt we’ve seen so far. They cover everything from economics and regional development to eating habits and even how the concepts of face and guanxi can influence corruption. Despite a few weird mistakes made by the narrator (like China’s “five million year history”) the entire film is very well made with lots of aesthetically pleasing infographics. Seems like the perfect primer for anybody looking to absorb China 101 over their lunch break.
