How long did it take you to learn mandarin?

[MickCorgi]

What surprises me is this interviewer lady speaking prefect Mandarin. Who is she?

[DAUCUSCAROTATHEMOVIE]

I went to Beijing for the first time when I was 15 in late October and I discover all the secret of Long Johns :) and visit a family on the east side of Beijing, and they show me where they store the cabbage! It was a entire room of them - imagine a kid from the South at 15.

[NebPWN]

lol nice socks

[CFSO5607]

These questions are really good and professional! Compared with what are asked on CNN and Foxnews...LOL

[JulianYamato]

[yche332]

i love smacker's voice...

[chewchewg]

It's not safe eating china produce.. Can't trust what they put in fertilizer or what kind of fertilizer they using.. Washing fruits with chemical, Melanine baby formula Cows being fed meats Fishes being insulted with lead bar to weigh more Fake egg(?) I don't know how they do that, but for sure it's a FAKE~!! I would like to go to china and take a tour but the food I'm going eat there? Don't want to take any chance...

[imkow]

苏菲加油

[LouisLeiYu]

My question to Smacker is this: in the old days (when I was in China in the 90's, I notice that the relationship between people can be described as "guanxi". Meaning if you want people to do something for you, you try to "la guanxi" (ask for a favor) by exchanging gifts. Is gift exchanging still popular amongst Chinese people? These days when Chinese people want something done, is giving gifts still an affective method?

[lz19870]

it depends,you know i think it is a tradition for chinese people to exchaging gifts ,you know in china when you visit your friends or relatives we usually bring our gifts .

[koinbouffier]

差不多，我觉得，反正走后门挺重要的。不过您这翻译ask for a favour好像没有 pull some strings更形象。 哟～～～您90年代就来北京了，那估计你满眼都是破落，我觉得北­京也就这两年还能凑活看看。。。我都2年没回北京了，唉～～～

[R2A2C]

[koinbouffier]

[vegetaowen]

the point of my comment is that it 听着怪别扭的 if we say 肯德基州, that's why i think it's funny and that's why they should call it 肯德基州

[charrahan]

[mikki2046]

humm..

i cant see any points of asking those stupid questions....

[LegendLength]

because it's real

[fl17]

oh già!

[vipvickie]

大妈说的太有意思了，就想着我小时候，我们家买大白菜（我姥姥家­原来是平房，我们家住楼房，在5楼，楼房起初都是6层，不用装电­梯）到了冬天该买白菜了卖白菜的车就来，我们家就得买30-50­颗，还得找人给推到楼底下，然后往4楼跟5楼中间那层搬。都放那­，塔老高的。不过最后都烂了也没吃完，但是冬天没其他的吃。还有­穿秋裤，不过到了美国就不穿了，而且美国屋里暖气，外面汽车，不­用穿，我觉得这是主要原因。还有原来国内的暖气都是锅炉房烧热了­水传导到每家的，现在美国只有很老的楼房才这样。住平房就是自己­家的炉子，烧煤，家里还得买好些煤，炉子里还可以烤白薯。哈哈

[ultraherbs]

嗯，以前有煤爐子還能把白薯放邊兒上烤，就是容易中煤氣，挺懸的­。現在估計沒有多少人冬儲大白菜了，太占地兒。

[heilong79]

When I was in Shen Yang last year I put out some Bai Cai（白菜）also but someone stole some of it. I had it hanging outside my door. Still what she said was intresting. I find some Chinese do follow dates when dressing is conserned, I remember everyone was wearing their mou ku and I was walking around outside during November not even wearing a jacket, everyone tough I was a crazy Lao Wai but I just told them that I didnt feel cold that day. They just couldnt understand why.

[BennechC]

when the the sub is pounds actually its suppose to be kilograms

[chunlusun]

No, Chinese measurement "Jin" was used in the conversation, which is 500 grams (1/2 kg) exactly, which is rather close to one "pound". 800 Jin as in the clip would actually translate to 400 kg exactly.

[heilong79]

yes a Jin is 500kg, 1kg is call gong jin, 250kg is called ban jin.

[dopeymike009]

i think people have already answered this, but ill ask it anyways: why is her name smacker?

[devonye]

你也太过分了啊

[xuchao00007]

说话干净点，别在这里丢自己的脸，人家说话多热诚执白，都是大实­话。就你聪明，行了吧？你想让我呕吐～

[koinbouffier]

一听你说话就知道你丫是外地的。。。。。。。哎，不是一档次人，­懒得理你都，跟你说多了，怕我普通话降级。

[BozhiPan]

呵呵，北京人的脸真让你这种人丢光啦

顺便，北京人说普通话并不标准

[koinbouffier]

shut up ur little dirty mouth!!!!

[sdw1204]

i don't like beijing either but this lovely lady makes me love the city bit by bit

[koinbouffier]

傻比，回家干你妈去吧啊！

[pijama159]

ni yao gan shui ah?

[charrahan]

可真不文明,说出这种令人作呕的话,别在这儿现眼啦!!

[Antithetic129]

~~~~~~~keep your legs warm now~~or they are gonna be horribly painful when you getting old..... Although I hate wearing those too.

[AcePilot101]

I love China

chinese people are so cool

lol

[formulawhy]

Actually when she says "Jie Qi", it is solar terms defined in Chinese lunar calendar that she means. I'm Beijinger BTW

[Vision2018]

Smacker? Then what is her husband name? "Slayer"

[skyphoenix]

fuker lol

[ipfreak]

great video clips. from the life of little people, we can see the real life of real people, get better assessments for that society than those big name medias (too political)...

why just beijing? china is so big and sufei can do a lot of more than just in beijing ..

[devonye]

yeah,she can go to zhejiang for a visit

[kongzi08]

i am a chinese girl,iam wearing the "long underwear",i can't understand that don't you feel uncomfortebal without it?it can make me feel warm and comfortable,actually,i like it.and i don't think chinese ppl are weaker than foreiner it's just a good way to keep us warm. 国情不一样，文化不一样

[TheRealDj2quick]

chinese people definitely are not weaker than foreigners, us foreigners i guess are just too stubborn and dont want to take the time to wear long underwear. not to mention that fashion rules many people's lives, unfortunately and im sure some people see long underwear as "unfashionable"

[pridday88]

people in other countries wear long underwear, but mostly if they are going to be out all day in very cold weather, like hiking or if they work outdoors. everyone at my house has a couple pair.

[TheRealDj2quick]

i own a pair too :P

[LegendLength]

I agree while it's nice to say chinese are weaker than westerners I think it's the other way around imo (i'm a westerner).

[VivalaChina]

When I was little,about 10 or 11 years ago,my grandparents used to buy many cabbages in winter.

[Daavid321]

smacker is so cool

[joyjoyooO]

hahaha smacker =D

[ImperialPimp]

Awesome, Smacker is the bomb.

[LifeInAGame]

The heating system in China is different than that in the USA, I think in the US, people use eletricity heating systems ? In China, we use hot water pipes running through the whole buildings.

[HISASHILX]

Now! I agree Smacker she knows ever thing.

[thonijp]

Greeat Show!!!!!!!

Greatings from Brazil

[wluhan]

brilliant.simply brilliant. love it.

[yingcun]

Good job, Smaker and Sufei~!

[seanreedlove]

WO AI NI SMACKER!

[pcgab]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iwontforgetyou22]

SMACKER!!

[ironqqq]

Sufei a 斤 is not a pound. It is a one catty. Please get your units right. Although it is close to a pound, it is not. Be more accurate on your translation please.

[jimmyjamesWang]

jin and pound are close enough, so maybe that's why she didnt point it out.

[hot12lips12]

Smacker didn't really answer the last question that well.

[brightkelly]

800 jin=400kg, it does not equal 800 pounds.

[csmix]

400kg is about 800 pounds.. 1kg is about 2.2 pounds

[nickschuyler]

Loved the part about the cabbage. hehe. mmmm. Beijing markets!

[linn1085]

i remember when i was younger my family bought 50kg of chinese cabbage for winter...

[Handlr]

smacker is awesome :D

[thebuddhamonkey]

The whole city has central heating? That's pretty amazing. Too bad it's not like that in the US. People freeze to death here because they can't afford heat.

[maple2000new]

It's true that Beijing has a central heating system. Ironically, people should thank partially to the communism system for that. In recent years, some of the new apartments are changing the policy and are providing heating in winters family by family.

[jxb89]

what's so ironic about a communist government providing heat? capitalism is more democratic than communism only in YOUR books

[DevilMayCareAboutMe]

I guess it's ironic because people tend to think of communism as something that is unthinkably evil, but not considering the pros of it, such as central heating, which helps people more than the capitalist way.

[sonnetxi]

@DevilMayCareAboutMe that's probably because you live in the US where the government try their best to condemn communism as pure evil lol. not that iam pro communism in any way...

[DevilMayCareAboutMe]

@sonnetxi

Actually, I live in Canada, where it's more socialist than the US (they're calling us "commies from the north" now, ha ha). But no matter where you are, there'll always be ignorant people.

[sonnetxi]

@DevilMayCareAboutMe oh i see. well its still not totalitarian like in china

[sexybeijingTV]

Actually, most people who live in one story ping fang (平房) housing still burn coal to heat their homes. Apartment buildings almost all have central heating.

[astanhope]

Smacker shi wo de zui xihuan de Beijing ren.

SuFei shi Beijing de zui piaoliang de Xiren.

[JonnyNice]

Yeah, I love it too. :D

[dieterlee]

hehe, sweet.

[alt173]

SuFei 的口音很可爱！

[windcu]

I love smacker she is so hearty!

[packard12]
