I'm at a bad part in my life and your videos really help me keep my spirits and ambitions up. Just thought you should know mate, keep it up and all the best

I live in an ocean-view apartment (170m2 with three bedrooms) in Xiamen. The landlord recently raised the rent from 4500 to 4950. I was of course upset but after hearing how much you pay I feel much better now. Thx :D

Prozzie! Nice video. Glad you had him as a guest.

I'm happy to see you and prozzie working it out . Nice informational video. keep up the good work. From Montreal Canada

Ningbo is an up and coming city too. I saw it graduate from 3 to 2 tier. Nice to see the discussion.

As someone who grew up in HK I can’t sympathise with your complaints about expensive rent

Great video! Good to see that Prozzie is more confident these days.

Loving these videos! Keep 'em coming.

In the 3rd tier cities, the people are so much more laid back and chill. Stuff is cheaper. Locals are more friendly and genuine. If some guy comes up to you in a 3rd tier city, they're probably just curious about you and want to see what's up with you up close. Unless maybe a KTV...haha. Whereas in 1st tier cities, people are more rushed, arrogant, and usually have some agenda. When someone comes up to you, they want something from you. Usually, to buy some real estate, join some membership, or invest in some ponzi scheme. The worst is when you get approached by some pompous guy in a suit and camera filming you to STAY AWESOME.

great to see you two together.

Great Videos! Very informative and helpful. Especially for someone who just moved to China. Keep up the good work.

You opened my eyes to many things in china ! Keep it up and more videos plz!

Prozzie & Winston looking like two really shit hitmen here - Winston being the responsible one & Prozzie being the one who shoots the wrong person, thus getting both of them into deep shit. I feel a screenplay coming on.

Nice video again Winston. I have been watching your videos for last 6years. Really good job Winston. I am a Chinese girl who married Australian man living Sydney for 15 years. Stay awesome mate!

Really like your videos..so chilled out..and informative.Thanks alot mate!

Informative video as usual. You guys are looking good!!

I feel that 3rd tier cities are more relaxed, even if they are massive. However the 1st tiers (Shanghai, Shenzhen, Beijing) people seem to be more rushed, faster pace of life.

Welcome to another wrideo

Great video; nice to see you two collaborate👍🏼

Great video and good to see you two collab.

Winston and prozzie and cmenmilk are the bomb yo

I lived in Hong Kong and have been to mainland china as well and think that HK has the perfect blend of the levels in different areas of the city. The alleyways in certain areas are the jewels of the city if you want to 'escape' the ultra high tech experience of say the financial district. Great video 👍🏻

Nice video Winston, as always!

Absolutely great video guys. Loved it!

Whilst everyone else is wearing a bathing suit, Winston is wearing a business suit. Now that's what I call professionalism.

Before I visited Shanghai, my friends kept telling me I didn't need to learn any Chinese because everyone spoke English. I'm glad I didn't listen because it turned out that most people didn't speak it or if they did, it was usually about as good as my Chinese. I was happy to get a lot of practice using my five months worth of language lessons. I also ended up traveling by bus a couple times. Fortunately taking pictures of the schedule and just watching the signs until I saw the characters for my stop made it easy to navigate (or just using Maps and waiting until the GPS showed that I was at my destination). My favorite part of the trip was traveling to Hengdian World Studios by myself. Only one person I met spoke a little bit of English, but I still managed to travel from Shanghai to Hengdian, get a hotel room and tickets for the studio. It was the best part of my trip. Can't wait to go back next year. (And hopefully my Chinese will be a lot better by then.)

You are helping a lot of people with your videos and you helped me learn about Shenzhen. I wish I could have met you while I was there, but it is what it is. I hope this platform takes you far, keep it up!

Thanks for this one Serpentza & Prozzie. Some of our teachers and students are going to China for a school trip and this will be interesting for them. I always enjoy your videos and Prozzie, as a fellow Canadian, I get your sense of humour and you always make me laugh - which I really appreciate. Cheers guys - I look forward to the next video as well as the release of Concouring Northern China.

Last time I was this early, Mohammad was a rare name in Europe.

people paying rent in HK, let's cry all together ;__;

Holy cow Winston and Prozzie together for more than half a second. Best video ever!

I love this video! It's such a rare treat to see Winston & Prozie working in the same video. Prozie take notes from Winston professionalism to improve your vids, he's a master craftsman at video capturing, editing and portrayal.

I have literally just traveled to Shenzhen to go to Ikea and buy some bits, but mostly for the meatballs. I love living in Huizhou because the cost of living is great but I don't think i could do it without having Shenzhen and Hong Kong in such close proximity.

I visited Shenzhen last week and loved the place, very surprised even after watching these videos. What's the entrance-way at 2:26? I wandered past there and was wondering what was inside, haven't been able to find out.

Another great video,awesome

Thanks for the video i loved it !

You guys (Winston, Prozzie, and Cmilk) always talk about 1st tier cities and 3rd tier cities. Why not 2nd tier cities?

I like Winston. He introduced me to cmilk, prozzie, etc.. But he actually seems to have his shit together, I like his style best.. But.. he has a pain in his eyes man.. :'( shit is real. He's seen it, he's lived it, and it reminds me that you can't unsee it.. it reminds me of the pain in my eyes from the shit ive lived.. I love you bro, you're the man

Great to see Prozie on your channel!

Excellent video once again.

I was almost on the verge of not staying awesome

I cried a little when he said that a 45m2 apartment is a tiny one. I live in one the exact same size in my home country (not China) and my boyfriend and I can't even use up all the space here. I guess it all depends on what you're used to.

Winston, your b-roll is amazing. Some of the best on KZfaq.

I think that was the biggest smile I have seen Winston right at the end. You guys need to collaborate more often!

*Also, Prozzie needs to learn his area measurements instead of spending his time flying kites and sword fighting with C-milk.*

It's a What's up with...but wait what Winston and Prozzie?????? Mind blown.

Nice video Serpentza and Prozzie 👍

About time you and prozie made a video !

I suspect Prozzie's vocabulary might be bijou-fueled (or, at least enhanced). I was also curious what the criteria is for the tier system is. How would to rate the cities in the US you've been to? I suspect for cleanliness/risk, some of the deepest, darkest southern US cities could give lower tier Chinese cities a run for their money.

I prefer living in a third tier city because English isn't most places so it forces you to learn Chinese & makes it easier to improve because you have to. Also I find shanghai & other first tier cities a little impersonal.

great Video really enjoyed it.

Very interesting, thank you!

Cool Prozzzziie on board! How would a 4th tier look like? Why doesn't Prozzzie move to 1st/2nd tier? (More expensive, but you can also make more money)

Video on the "milk dog" please? seen a few in your videos and I really don't understand, have they just had a litter of puppies or are they sick?

Good information thanks for the video

Great info. Stay Awesome mate.

I don't think Shenzhen is a showcase of China...Shanghai and Beijing are more like a showcase. Actually, comparing to the former cities, Shenzhen is not focused on international image, it focuses on itself. It is an economic special zone. In another word, capitalism zone, it developed by the good location near to HongKong. Shenzhen is so regular and modern is because it has to keep its development, ​not for face.

I dont think it 100% correct of the tier system by your understanding. Shenzhen is not even a direct-controlled municipality, but it was the 1st Special Economic Zone which the Chinese government built in 1980 from scratch (almost).It is very close to Hongkong (colony of UK for 150 years), this is the only reason. It holds sub-provincial administrative status means the political power is less than a province. The easieat way to explain, Shenzhen is the Wall street of China, good salary, expensive to live, extremely convenient for almost everything, but no history. I may choose Nanjing over Shenzhen, it has a prominent place in Chinese history and culture, having served as the capital of various Chinese dynasties, kingdoms and republican governments dating from the 3rd century CE to 1949 ( copy from Wikipedia) and it does better GPD growth than Shenzhen in the past few years. Why you moved to Shenzhen? Maybe because of your wife? haha

Nice explainer. Thanks.

Thank you for a factual and positive presentation of China. This brings back memory of my time in Shenzhen, 2012 til 2017.

How about a video on martial arts in China? In the west, Chinese are always portrayed as knowing Karate, Kung Fu or something. So what's the truth? Does every other Chinese person know karate? Is everyone in China always Kung Fu fighting?

I have to leave China in a week or so. Even though I haven't left yet, I already miss it.

You're great at giving informative insights into China.

i love the video man, especially when you fly your drone to show the view, its so spectacular!

Prozie on his best behaviour!

Small advice: manual lens focus

very helpful info , thanx

whoa a Winston and Prozzie video!! it's like a 🦄!

Theses guys are sweating paying 600 bucks a month for rent lol

Winston's hairline seems better

Clear, good channel, great content, no stupid things. I love the attitude and awesomeness/professional aura that surrounds you.

Thanks for the great Video's make, please keep them up

oi Prozzie, why are you cheating on the C-Milk?

Is milk dog a china term? Or just a dog that is milking? Very confused by this term I hear you guys say a lot!

props for Prozzie living it up the 3rd tier - Great video guys

Nicely done, Thanks.

I've been approached by a company to teach in China but they wouldn't sponsor my spouse. Are there any organizations that sponsor visas for spouses/potential spouses. I am so keen to go to China. I didn't give a crap about it before your videos but I've really wanted to visit now.

China's Top 25 Cities by tier score: 25. Harbin 24. Kunming 23. Hefei 22. Wuxi 21. Fuzhou 20. Xiamen 19. Ningbo 18. Dongguan 17. Dalian 16. Zhengzhou 15. Qingdao 14. Shenyang 13. Changsha 12. Xi'an 11. Suzhou 10. Tianjin 9. Nanjing 8. Chongqing 7. Wuhan 6. Hangzhou 5. Chengdu 4. Shenzhen 3. Guangzhou 2. Shanghai 1. Beijing

OH! and that's a gorgeous opening with the sun setting (or rising) and everything

Nice to see Prozzie on your channel! ;)

I got news for you fellas----I've gotten throwing-up sick in Shanghai so many times over the years, and my other expat friends have suffered similarly. It doesn't matter how nice the place looks. Cleanliness standards can still be low in tier one cities, and it happens quite often at Western-style restaurants staffed by workers who don't quite get how to safely prepare and preserve that kind of food. As for those smiley faced safety rating stickers, they are commonly paid for under the table in Shanghai, too.

More prozzie!

Amazing video! Also you uploaded it on my bday 7/14!!!

I like your video it shows all the very inner things in China and your feelings about those places

Make more videos about your life before China

First tier city = more money, more organization, more English, etc.

It's nice to see you two talking again.

That was a very interesting video.

personal favorite citys in Mainland China for live: 1. Zhuhai 2. Shanghai 3. Guangzhou 4. Xiamen 5. Shenzhen 6. Hangzhou 7. Chengdu 8. Sanya 9. Suzhou 10. Beijing 11. Quanzhou 12. Shantou & Chaozhou 13. Weihai & Yantai 14. Nanjing 15. Xian 16. Changzhou 17. Qingdao 18. Fuzhou 19. Haikou 20. Wuhan

Of all the Chinese City's I've been to this City stands out as a up and coming Great City and that is Chongqing. If I had a chance to live anywhere in China it would be Chongqing. It has everything. It's fast becoming a First Tier City

wow, that tree in the middle is so crisp and in focus! :p Except that, really liked the video, think i will start with the tier 1 cities and move on from there ;)

love your videos, and 4k, perfekt

Wow, please be careful, I saw a picture of you guys drinking a beer before driving at 03:07. That is against the law in China, and you could be locked in the police station for up to 14 days. "酒驾". Athough I think drinking beer cannot make people drunk, beause it's far from liquor, next time, make 200% sure there is no security guard around you first. Stay awesome.

Rent here in Auckland, New Zealand is like $2500

nice video about different lifestyle of cities in China this cool watch

Great videos ☺

7:12 what is a milk dog?

My mortgage is $3000 USD a month. So I gather I could live like a GOD in China.

Great video! As a local Shenzhen resident I witnessed how it evolved from no tier to the first one in less than three decades. Amazing.

I love your videos, this is probably one of my favorite youtube channels. Please keep up the good work ::)))
