2nd class is way more value than 1st class. But remember, Hi speed rail in China is designed as a public infrastructure and the fares are heavily subsidised to make it affordable to the general public, locals and foreigners alike. By not discouraging travelling between cities, higher people movement facilitates more connectivity, communication and people exchanges which fosters economic activity and development. Thanks to Maggie, similar public monopolies in the UK have been privatized and forced people onto expensive and poor serviced trains so large corporations and vulture funds can profit without care.

Even if you have WeChat and Alipay, you still don’t understand that there is no such thing as a credit score in China, and Alipay’s score is not a credit score

One correction. You can only get hot water at the water spot. The red button is a lock to protect people from false cooperation. Only click the red button to unlockat first, can you get hot water from it by pressing the green button. It will be locked automatically after few seconds since you release the green button. Be careful while you hold the cut filled up with hot water to your seat.

HI! Just a kind reminder, you can actually order the takeaway meals in the train, just scan the QR code on the seats, you can see many options, and they will deliver the food to your seats.🤩
Those who act against the regulations on trains and airplanes will not be able to purchase high-speed railway ticket or flight ticket for certain amount of time. This is to prevent those misbehaving passengers disturbing others like occupying others seat, smoking on the plane/train, disrupting the operation of coaches or aircrafts.

When arrived in Xi'an, the first place on the must-see list was: the Tang Dynasty City that Never Sleeps. How to get there? In the evening, take Metro Line 4 to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and exit from Exit B. Walk south for 15 minutes. After seeing the statue of Monk Xuanzang, you can see the entrance to this block. Walk south for 1 kilometer from the entrance to enter the core block. The scenery is very beautiful at night.

The credit that was mentioned in the train will not stop you to get the loans or mortgage in the future. It just lock your ID a couple months to stop you buy train/flight ticket as a warning if you steal a ride. This kind of announce is intend to remind to the public don't to be a ticket evader.

Well, after searching on internet, found a news relevant. It's something like Management Measures for Railway Passenger Credit Records (Trial), maintained by Railway bureau I guess, and the records are for railways use only. Like if someone smoking and triggering a smoke alarm and causing the train's speed slow down, will be prohibited from taking high speed trains or tickets purchasing.

The logic of being restricted from buying tickets for anti-social behavior on the train is that the train company does not allow such people. The reason for being taken to the public security bureau is that the anti-social behavior he did may have violated the law. But it does not necessarily mean that he will be restricted from taking out loans. If you are restricted from taking out loans, it should be because you have a criminal record or do not have a good job. This should be the same in any country. The credit score in Alipay or WeChat is only an indicator of these two companies. After all, no one borrows money from these two companies. However, when borrowing money, they will also analyze whether you pay back your credit card frequently, etc. This is the same in any country.

27:02 In fact, the credit system mentioned by the train staff is different from that in Alipay. The credit records in Alipay is only used for Alipay services,like renting a scooter. In contrast, the system mentioned in the amplifier is an “official” one. Maybe bad record would affect the feasibility of getting loans. To sum up, they are not the same one. 😂

when traveling in china, it's better to get a sim with a local number - it's really cheap if you get a low data plan. bring along and older phone so you can use the local number with the payment apps. this allows you to use a lot of services that require a local number. I think that was the problem you had with the beijing metro. you should be able to order a lot of different foods using the qr quote on the armrest. it will be delivered to the next station and the train attendent will pick it up and deliver it to your seat. you can get mcdonalds, starbucks, or any kind of food local to the next station.

The credit score in Alipay or Wechat is nothing, don't worry about that.😂
27:00 The Social Credit System is maintained by the government. It's not a private credit agency. The credit system aims to deter undesirable behaviors, such as unable to settle debt, having dealt with illicit drugs, etc. Lowering of personal credit reduces certain freedom, like, being unable to travel via high-speed rail/plane/public transport, travel out of the country, leisure spending like golf, premium hotels, extravagant purchases like a new car, purchasing insurance, investing, children being denied entry into prestigious schools, etc. The intended effect is the lowering of credit places more and more restrictions in these citizens' daily lives. A supposed person with some extremely low credit score would thus be only allowed to travel via private transport across the country if they can manage to find a way.
