In recent times, a surge of foreign influencers has descended upon China, eager to explore and document their experiences, sparking widespread online discussions.
These international content creators have been spotted across various iconic locations. In Shanghai, a blonde influencer was seen enthusiastically filming a street vendor making jianbing on Nanjing Road, causing the vendor to fumble slightly while cracking an egg. In Chengdu, a foreign vlogger live – streamed his spicy hot pot adventure, sweating profusely yet persistently dipping brain into the broth, exclaiming “amazing” to his viewers.
The Great Wall has also become a popular destination, with many influencers arriving as early as 3 am to capture the sunrise. One disappointed influencer’s candid reaction to the overcast sky elicited laughter from onlookers. In Xi’an’s Muslim Quarter, influencers were seen raving about Chinese cuisine on camera, though some humorous moments emerged, like when one influencer secretly questioned the strong flavor of yangrou paomo after praising Chinese food, or another’s comical expression upon biting into a roujiamo filled with too much cilantro.
These viral moments have not only entertained Chinese netizens but also triggered diverse reactions. While many feel a sense of pride seeing foreigners amazed by China’s development, others express concerns that these visitors might only focus on the country’s surface – level prosperity and overlook the real – life challenges faced by ordinary people, such as housing prices, education, and healthcare. Regardless, these influencer – led adventures have undoubtedly added a lively chapter to cross – cultural exchanges.
