A growing number of Chinese stories are being told by foreigners through the Internet.
Recently, a video made by an Australian on Douyin swept the screen, followed by more than 2 million zans and 110, 000 comments (评论). In the video he said. "I'm pleased with the Chinese lifestyle. It's really difficult to live in a country like Australia, especially after you have spent so much time in China. If you don't drive a car in China, you just ride a bike. You can get anywhere easily, and there are subways. But in Australia, if you don't have a car, you can do nothing."
The Australian uncle also complained about (抱怨) the price of Uber, an Australian taxi-hailing software. "My God, one kilometer is almost 20 Australian ollas (about 97 yuan RMB)."
The blogger of Beijing Expat Guide, Paul Stoker, compared life in Beijing with life in America. He said. "Life is usually controlled by cars in the US. There's no cheap and good public transportation, so it's so difficult to get somewhere. You always have to borrow or rent a car or ask for a ride." "Compared to the colorful life in Beijing, life seems so boring in America. It seems nothing has changed at home, except for you."
Coming back to America, Cynthia Lopez said at eChinacities. "The number of mass shooting in the US has quickly increased in recent years. You don't have to worry about your safety in China—guns are not allowed by law in China. Because of America's gun culture, guns will never be illegal in the US."

They think public traffic in China is very fast and cheap, which can take them anywhere___40___. However, in their hometowns like Australia and America, public traffic is not so convenient, but___41___. They can hardly go anywhere without a car. In their eyes, life in China is___42___while the lifestyle in their own countries seems so boring. Another good thing in China is that they don't have to worry about their___43___because guns are not allowed by law.
