do be very honest, I sometimes forget that covid is still serious living in beijing…….we sometimes have 10 cases or such occasionally but the government always finds out away to protect the majority from getting infected.
So happy watching Chinese is so proud and confident when talking the situation. It is so sad that BBC or American Internet twist the truth and mislead their people. The China never twisted one country on Internet like the western did.
the video is hot in the zhihu .
what happened, the truth about China? Lol
BBC saying good things about china like they stoping drain their rice using a colander…
BBC, did the PM phoned u asking u to ease the sino-uk relationships?
北京姑娘真美
"Much better than in your countries."
Thank you BBC for not editing that out.
I am sure that this journalist didn't get pay on time from the BBC, he is stuck in China right now,.
Every one of you respects human right, freedom and democrats can support him by donating:

They all still wear masks!!!
Wearing masks isn’t normal!!
Shame on these arrogant and ignorant people.
BBC通共了
Well done!
BBC最近水平很高啊
oh daddy feed me more BBC
The guy from food shop took a step back when got interviewed. There's follow-up report of him and he said: well he didn't wear mask and came from where virus spreaded wildly, I wanted to be careful
Who confirmed covid came from bats. A lot asain country puls Africa eat bats so why did it not start in those area. covid could literally start anywhere because no one really knows where did covid really came from. Covid is hard to control at frist because it doesn't acttak you right away that means people won't get sick right away what if a person travels while having covid they could spead the virus to everyone. at the same time the world won't notice about it because at frist people won't show any symptoms what if those people travels. Think about it we can't blame china completely.
what is wrong with you, BBC ，you report good things about China
The first red cross video by BBC sooner or later
Ha ha… Maybe the BBC should have interviewed a handful of "dissidents", who would surely represent the majority of the Chinese population better and give you better answers more customised to the western taste!
BBC is so disappointed at the UK’s COVID situation that it’s starting to report the Chinese COVID situation without political filters. Respect from Shanghai, hope you make your next video here!
I thumb down this video because BBC should stick to its anti China policy. Poor performance this time!
I think BBC did the unusual report of China to convince the British people that things will get better, if you do what China has done in the beginning of the pandemic and get yourself vaccine as soon as possible.
Wow BBC decides not to edit these scenes out? Am I dreaming?
BBC is a traditional China issues Lair and it even make Tailand girl as Chinese girl in bad reports
Hm. Some traitores in our enemies.
coronavirus come from UK .UK mutant virus infects the world.
Beijing was not affected by COVID-19.
BBC = Broadcast Bad news of China
CNN = China Negative News
ABC = All Bad news of China
WSJ = What a Sinophobia Journal
British : we have freedom
Chinese : oh yeah, covid has freedom too.
No surprises. It’s all political. British government desperately needs this after the lockdown. Merely to ease people and telling them lockdown is not against democracy or freedom, but the best they can do for now.
I wish the BBC could hire a China correspondent who actually spoke Mandarin without sounding like an Aussie backpacker. His tones were all over the place and his pronunciation is cringey as fuck. For example, in the beginning bit, he tried to ask: "卖得好吗?" which means "Are you selling well?" and he pronounced it as "买得好吗" which roughly would mean "can you buy it?". He's saved by the context, but in any other situation, a Mandarin speaker would look at you perplexed.
I'm laughing when reading the comments, haha… 🙂
When BBC start talking something good about China, it must be the biggest fake news from BBC.
Wear a mask, you prick. You are not in the UK, where the virus is still rampant.
Much better than your country. Ooooohhhh!
Holy shit, the BBC actually dropped their anti-China agenda for once. I'm impressed. Keep this up.
Damn this entire comment section is full of communist bandits
This reporter didn't need to go to the burn ward because he was already burned at the stake.
This is the BBC we'd like to see from now on. Stick to the truth whether it be good or bad. Hope they have turned over a new leaf this new year.
Just a slap in the face …Cases increasing in beijing
China or other countries recovered from what? Covid is propaganda, tests are fake and vaccine is poisonous. Or are there fools that believe there is only one desease? If tomorrow someone will tell you to wear purple hats to protect you from jumping frogs, most of you will do it, because you simply believe the lies without analysing it.
Bla Bla Cute news….
BBC—fake news，and a liar
This is like just watching sun comes out from the West. Whoaaa….
stephen mcdonell actually live in china quite a long time. he just pretend he's recently known
继续戴口罩吧，无论你在哪。
What happened ? BBC reports real news ??? It has run out of ideas ?
leave us along BBC!
Oh my god first time ever BBC reporting a good news on China I thought it was a fake BBC but is not actually it's a real one
Don’t worry, western, our chinese like making joke
I am horrified by the audacity of their proud. They should at least feel sorry for the world since all of this started in Wuhan.
BBC: it is hard to go back to normal.
In the background: people are waiting for a seat on street
China is officially the most disgraceful and shameful country in the world. It's official. China = Shame
这个阴间人又来了
果然是阴间滤镜
1:06 The correct translation is much better than your countries, because ur governments don’t take care about it. So the man laughed in an embarrassment.
不是报道疫情吗？ 骗进来把我看饿了
Oh,GADDDDDDD!What happen???????? BBC reported something true about China!!!!!! What is the matter of the world?????
WTF???It's not BBC style about China, most of the time a BBC reporter would stand by a trash can, talk to some paid actors or actress with ugly face: this is BBC we are in China bullshtting…
STOP MADE IN CHINA 2025 / keep west manufacturing

COVID has the “freedom” to infect whoever it wants. COVID lives matter! Mask doesn’t work, free the COVID!
Yes. Much better than you, BBC.
No, no, no, BBC, we like fake news about China. Remember to use the death-gray color in every video about China.
0:32 中国特色清仓甩卖，一甩甩一年以上
Remember china telling the world it's not an airborne virus and then sending its citizens all over the world for lunar new year(bio-terrorism)? Who was the whistle-blower they killed again? That's right…saving face is the only thing they give a fuck about.
CCP SHILL WUMAO BOT HOPE WINNIE THE POOH SEES THIS BRO!!
1:00, 白朱被北京大妞怼尴尬尬了

Look at all the Chinese nationalists/bots in the comments.
Good news about China: Truth
Bad news about China: the fakest of fake news (all hail the glorious CCP).
better than your country(our freedom belong to government)
Most foreign reporters and media correspondents have been removed their journalism certificate from the China Beijing authority, many of them even had their visa been revoked had to leave China, but this particular reporter can still remain in Beijing and able to interview the locals.
bbc fake news
Why are you walkin into businesses with a mask?? Ur not in the uk now lol
Mainwhile the United States are more than 29.4 million corona virus cases…and the economic is really struggling right now..
It is absolutely the first time in my life to see the dark sunlight
u forgot to mention chinese are donating their vaccines cause majority of population is not getting one
This is a global disaster, its time for all of us to be united, no one is better or worse.
We should send all our infected to china and let them take care if the infected. They started this shit anyway. Yet, we are the ones suffering. Their government should be held responsible.
Shallow filter forget to put
