A living hell the epidemic continues to overwhelm China hospitals are at full capacity Severe illnesses and sudden deaths are sharply rising among increasingly younger people blamed on a new virus variant or harmful vaccines The Lunar New Year scene resembled the end of the world with rural areas eerily deserted The city was eerily empty even the chicken coop and shopping center felt desolate Does China really have 500 million or is it closer to 1 billion people China returns to lean times high-speed trains nearly empty The green freight train was packed tight just like in the 1980s with people too afraid to spend and goods piling up unsold Xi Jinping fears three things most and the military is just one of them Miraculously escaping a deadly ordeal a travel blogger recounts being drugged in a small town in Fujian Scams and frauds are rampant throughout China An Indian pastry chef unexpectedly became a foreign expert in China sparking outrage online Wishing you a peaceful and joyful evening Here is tonight's program content we kindly invite you to enjoy it The prison is overcrowded disease continues to spread across China hospitals are overwhelmed Severe illnesses and sudden deaths are sharply rising among increasingly younger people blamed on a new virus variant or harmful vaccines Ladies and gentlemen while the rest of the world has moved past the nightmare of the pandemic Since winter began the disease has surged back with fierce intensity across China Residents in many areas have reported that This infectious wave has the potential to spread extremely rapidly with many people experiencing repeated reinfections Hospitals are overwhelmed with a rising number of severe cases and unexplained sudden deaths and the trend shows a clear shift toward younger victims The severe decline in population can be felt in both urban and rural areas leaving behind quiet desolate places that are chillingly eerie However the Chinese Communist Party authorities are concealing the outbreak and hospitals never mention the name COVID Residents in many areas reported that this year's flu season is highly contagious and difficult to treat Suspecting the virus had mutated again due to symptoms identical to COVID-19 residents expressed concern Linh Ly a resident of Qingdao Shandong said Many people are suffering from colds and coughs and I myself haven't recovered yet My throat is full of phlegm and I have a constant runny nose Last time about a month ago I got better but then relapsed again Now I'm feeling short of breath like there's not enough air After so many people died in the pandemic no one paid attention to such matters anymore Many residents from various regions reported Numerous sudden cardiac deaths have occurred in young people often without any prior warning signs They suspect this is a side effect as many people's immunity has significantly declined after receiving the domestic vaccine Overall health declined leaving them susceptible to a wide range of illnesses Wang a resident of Cam Chau said through clenched teeth that the hospital was completely full of people suddenly overwhelmed I've heard quite a few cases though I'm aware of a few myself People just vanish suddenly and it's happening at younger and younger ages People in their 30s suffering heart attacks with no one knowing why or able to explain the cause Dương a resident of Vũ Hồ added with a sigh White lungs pulmonary fibrosis—I know people around me have been affected They suspected it might be related to the vaccine they'd received earlier After getting vaccinated they suffered from constant colds and contracted a variety of strange illnesses Some wealthy individuals regret it saying they should never have gotten the shot in the first place Mr To a villager from Cát Lâm said that during the recent pandemic years many new graves have appeared in rural areas Due to the one-child policy the Northeast region has long had a small youth population Most young people have gone to work and settled elsewhere no longer returning to their hometowns He said that only the elderly remain in the northeast When people pass away they are mostly buried locally Everyone had either died or left The countryside lay empty with houses gradually falling into ruin Local residents revealed that the COVID-19 outbreak had never truly ended However the Chinese Communist Party government concealed it by labeling it as various types of flu Over the past few winters many patients and elderly individuals have passed away And sudden deaths among young people have become more frequent than before The city and countryside alike are far emptier than before The once-bustling scenes of festive preparations have vanished Residents in many areas also reported the sudden loss of young relatives and friends between the ages of 30 and 50 And most people believe these issues are related to the pandemic or side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine The scene of Lunar New Year resembles the end of the world with rural areas eerily deserted The city lay empty even the chicken coop and shopping center silent and deserted Is China really home to 500 million or as many as 1 billion people Ladies and gentlemen in Beijing wide empty avenues stand strangely vacant in broad daylight In Shanghai the Qinghuang Temple area once packed like a mortar during festival season now sees only a few scattered visitors Guangzhou looked almost like a ghost city In Shenzhen the southern financial hub major streets remain bustling even in the early afternoon Many stores closed down then leaving prime retail locations vacant with signs for lease or sale going up everywhere The timing only enhances the striking nature of the scene Just a few days remain until the New Year's Eve Traditionally this is the most bustling time of the year Yet this year the markets are silent and supermarkets are empty and the stations showed no signs of the usual surge Some observers bluntly described it saying it felt like a fake Tết In Hangzhou a famous restaurant beloved by young people no longer has crowds lining up outside The cameraman looks around and asks Where have all the young people gone The same scene unfolds in cities across China Empty many people believe this is because migrant workers have returned to their hometowns to celebrate Lunar New Year Yet strangely even the countryside was eerily silent as if emptied of people In many villages the number of residents under 40 can be counted one hand Most had left many years ago and never returned to settle A village once home to more than 200 residents is now reported to have fewer than 20 people remaining The cries of newborns have been absent for many years In Heilongjiang Province in northeastern China the scenes remain even more bleak The concrete houses still stand but they are empty inside You can see from one end of the village lane to the other without spotting a single soul No smoke rose from the chimney no rooster crowed no dog barked—only the sound of birds Local residents say that in recent years Due to multiple disease outbreaks and the effects of vaccination many people in their 50s have died unexpectedly Just days ago they were chatting normally and the next day they were gone—suddenly taken by stroke or heart attack The elderly have passed away the young have departed leaving behind only settlements like relics County towns and small cities also show similar signs in certain areas Standing at one end of the street you can see straight through to the other end A two-story shopping center once bustling in a city of 300 000 people now lies eerily empty at noon A vast movie theater complex as large as two soccer fields lay silent Those who entered described the atmosphere as post-apocalyptic The contrast with the past only heightens the unease especially as the officially reported population stands at 1.2 to 1.3 billion The streets were packed with people children running wild across the courtyard Even a small convenience store selling ice pops had customers clamoring to buy The official figure is now 1.4 billion yet real- world experience reveals an unprecedented emptiness People started wondering where those 1.4 billion individuals were scattered across social media Similar questions have been circulating as we reported in previous updates A widely shared video shows a Chinese woman using an AI tool o estimate that the actual population on the mainland could be close to 500 to 600 million Others cite indirect indicators such as salt consumption suggesting a figure of around 750 million These methods are controversial Yet the fact that they are widely embraced reflects an increasingly serious erosion of trust the official statistics Meanwhile the economic consequences are becoming increasingly evident Street food vendors report no customers while market stall owners say they're making no money Stores restaurants and supermarkets all reported a sharp decline in customers Factories are hiring fewer workers and newly built residential areas have extremely low occupancy rates As the housing market weakened signs for rent and sale sprouted up like mushrooms The traditional Lunar New Year is the most vid expression of the vitality of a populous nation If even this season feels bleak it raises serious questions about demographic structure and economic foundations Some analysts attribute this phenomenon to rapid aging a collapsing birth rate and prolonged internal migration Others questioned the transparency of the mortality and population data arguing that if the decline were greater than reported Official narratives may not fully reflect reality Population is not just a number on paper—it is the foundation of the market consumption production and services When the countryside falls silent with the absence of children when cities lack youthful faces when shopping centers stand empty just days before Lunar New Year This is no longer a matter of personal perception it signals a structural collapse China returns tough times high-speed trains nearly empty The market was packed tight like a crowded marketplace people dared not spend goods piled up unsold Yes ladies and gentlemen the familiar cry of the street vendor echoes through the old blue train mmediately sending several passengers back three or four decades earlier a middle-aged tourist sighed saying after all these years He once again experienced the feeling of riding a train from the 1980s and 1990s The vehicle was cramped the noise relentless a complete contrast At 7:16 a m a high-speed train nearly empty At Guangzhou Station and other major hubs spring travel peak season this year has reached its height leaving many people stunned In previous years this period had meant crowds of people luggage carts and continuous announcements Now at some stations The emptiness was so profound that footsteps echoed like reverberations Why In a country proud to possess the world's longest high-speed rail network Despite surpassing the combined totals of many other countries people still flock to the slower trains More outdated A commonly cited example is the Shenzhen-Zhengzhou rail line A second-class seat on the high-speed train takes about 7 hours and costs nearly 700 yuan A train journey takes 21 hours but costs only around 200 yuan By adding an extra 14 hours of travel time passengers save 500 yuan about 72 dollars For many working-class families that 500 yuan could cover a week's worth of living expenses or buy a warm coat for aging parents It's not that their time lacks value but the money saved carries greater weight Some factory workers explained that they couldn't earn much even after a full day's labor Taking the high-speed train might cost as much as several days' wages so they endure the discomfort Standing upright in a narrow space the bamboo tube holds the family's cash At the same time the highway and airport appeared unusually deserted with traffic volume on the highway no significantly higher than usual Once bustling with tourists the service stations now stand nearly empty their barber shops deserted Nail salon and restaurant Revenue reports before the holiday were only a third of those from previous years Oh in many places the festive atmosphere seemed to have faded In previous years the streets were so crowded that moving around was nearly impossible Now shopkeepers sit idle waiting for customers who never come The countryside is quiet too Thirty years ago at this very time Families were busy during the pig season preparing goods and exchanging cheerful greetings Fireworks once a symbol of Tết are becoming less common due to rising costs and restrictions that have dampened excitement High-end liquor luxurious gift boxes and prepaid shopping cards are reported to be difficult to sell Even iconic premium spirits have seen price reductions Some observers attribute this shift primarily to economic hardship Going home taking a break and spending holidays all require money When income drops or jobs become scarce saving becomes a necessity while others point to declining job opportunities Many migrant workers returned home as early as December as job opportunities in the city dwindled and laborers dispersed sooner than usual The trend of returning home via food truck in the traditional way has diminished Across social media platforms people are now asking Has the Spring Festival vanished or is it merely transforming Is the loud uniform celebration of the past Is it quietly yielding to something more solemn Amidst the cramped green-hulled ships and nearly empty high-speed compartments Amidst the spacious expressways and empty marketplaces a powerful contrast emerges between memory and reality In the past Tết was vibrant and full of life but now it brings a sense of coldness and melancholy Xi Jinping's Greatest Fears: The Military Is Just One of Them Ladies and gentlemen recently Yu Maxun Director of the China Center at the Hudson Institute as openly stated for a long time that the Chinese Communist Party has long lived in a state of constant fear Lacking political legitimacy the greatest concern is three major upheavals: a coup mutiny and rebellion by the troops and the script always haunted by a system built not on public trust but on control propaganda and coercive power Mr Yu argues that on the core issue the Chinese Communist Party has never resolved the fundamental question about where their authority comes from and who grants it When legitimacy does not stem from free elections or genuine social consensus e fear of losing power became a distant concern he noted following the death of Mao Zedong The power transition process has the elements of a coup The Party's long-standing doctrine that power springs from the barrel of a gun placing the military at the center of authority Yet it also turned it into the greatest structural risk in a system where loyalty determines advancement Any fracture within the armed forces can be fatal Huo Liren a former entrepreneur offered an additional perspective based on internal developments He believes that the large-scale purges under Xi Jinping have removed many senior military leaders and replacing them with individuals considered personally loyal to the supreme leader However building such a faction within the military reflects anxiety more than strength The state media's persistent emphasis on leadership's concern for officers and soldiers is no coincidence The report signaled high-level concerns about the reliability of the core force If a coup represents internal risk The uprising of the people is what drove the regime to heavily invest in an extensive surveillance and control apparatus According to Mr Xu the authorities recognize that once public dissatisfaction spreads and coordinated action across regions emerges The situation could quickly get out of hand As a result religious groups business leaders and individuals capable of mobilizing influence are all closely monitored The strategy of divide and rule was embedded within political mechanisms to prevent the formation of nationwide consensus However in the age of the Internet a local incident can quickly become national news undermining the regime's ability to isolate information Economically both experts identified this as the most vulnerable region Mr Ho warned that the growing trend of shifting production overseas The contraction of the private sector and the increasingly irreversible withdrawal of foreign capital He forecasts that after 2026 foreign exchange earnings may decline and the renminbi could face under significant pressure from depreciation Amid declining income and deepening instability Households are increasingly inclined toward saving rather than spending further dampening economic momentum He also criticized what he described as a lack of clarity in economic data arguing that consumption and income figures do not reflect reality the international model of a shrinking middle class has weakened market dynamism Meanwhile the outflow of capital and the departure of skilled professionals have become increasingly evident a sign of declining confidence among the middle class and the elite He noted that this very group had once provided a stable foundation during the period of reform and opening-up but now they are increasingly trying to move their assets overseas Both experts warned about the risk of redirecting internal pressures toward external threats History shows that declining empires often pursue diplomatic confrontations to reinforce their domestic power A strategy often accelerates decline In the context of the Taiwan Strait any conflict would depend not only on military capability but also in logistics investigation and international response They argue that the actual risk is far greater than what official narratives suggest The period from 2026 to 2029 is considered a critical window Mr Ho suggested that if foreign exchange reserves decline and ongoing liquidations continue to create a power vacuum The announcement of the succession plan could trigger nationwide ripple effects Meanwhile Mr Yu maintained that displays of strength could not conceal deeper structural challenges Spanning the fields of economy society and politics The analyses of Yu Maxun and Hu Liren converge at a central point A government lacking political legitimacy and genuine public support will struggle to achieve lasting prosperity and stability The future will take time to answer but structural instability has become an undeniable reality Narrowly escaping death in a hair-raising ordeal a travel blogger recounts being drugged in a small town in Fujian province Scams and frauds are rampant throughout China Ladies and gentlemen in the current climate of widespread online calls for justice that are often driven by emotion and confusion along with growing public concern over the rising number of missing you and sensitive topics such as organ trafficking and so-called youth enhancement A video posted by a Chinese mainland travel blogger went viral on the Ad platform sparking widespread discussion Blogger YouTube Wang An Kang Du Ky has been driving a renovated van converted into a mobile home since last year He has traveled through more than a dozen provinces documenting the overlooked moments heard during his budget travels However during this journey he said he was targeted and miraculously escaped death by a narrow margin Wang An Kang recounted that the incident occurred in a remote town in Nanning Fujian Province A man on an electric motorcycle approached him striking up a conversation about self-driving travel and video creation He kept inviting him to a guesthouse and drinking tea together throughout the entire afternoon The man urged Wang to stay overnight preparing a dish of braised pork with wine that evening Vương said he only drank a small amount but soon felt his heart racing and his head spinning Around midnight the man messaged him again saying he'd suddenly remembered something important to discuss and told him to go back and have another drink This time Wang refused sensing something was off During this time the man made video calls to two other individuals speaking in a language unfamiliar to Wang What struck him as strange was that each time the camera would stubbornly pan toward the King and told him to greet whoever called Then the man handed him the room key and suggested he wash up and sleep in a designated room saying it would be quieter there He declined and returned to his car Looking back he believed that if he had slept in that room The consequences could be dire That night Wang did a brief live stream but after just a few minutes he felt extremely uncomfortable Still清醒 he drove the battered car off the so-called guest inn tearing through the thick veil of night and bone-laden darkness Wang eventually had to rest in a small village for over 20 days before his health gradually improved After recovering Wang continued his backpacking journey Amazingly he soon encountered a He nearly fell for the same scam in Guangxi A man claiming to love traveling invited him to eat grilled food Two other men appeared just as he tried to leave attempting to restrain him Carrying a large makeshift shield and looking imposing Wang frightened them into fleeing Otherwise he believed he might have already been sold to telecom scam centers in Cambodia Vuong warned that as China's economy declines and unemployment rises many people could be driven to desperation and recklessness They risk slipping into a dead end operating through deceit and malice He said they'd either drug you or trick you into going with them Over those trips Wang realized that some groups were actually involved in human trafficking using deceitful tactics to lure victims and transport them to scam zones In Myanmar or Cambodia Wang's experience was not an isolated case Many years ago Wang Zhangjun known as a Tibetan explorer had repeatedly warned during live streams tha Solo hikers and lone travelers should exercise extreme caution He claimed to have found partially burned identity cards belonging to young women and warned that Macho My Dock in Nyingchi Tibet is not a place to vis arbitrarily accusing the presence of black magic practitioners at the site leading to numerous tourists being misled The guest never returned While still alive General Wang had filmed many reels of glaciers He died under mysterious circumstances in 2020 and the exact cause of death remains highly controversial An Indian pastry chef unexpectedly becomes a renowned foreign expert in China sparking outrage online Ladies and gentlemen in 2025 the Chinese Communist Party government announced A series of incentives including the so-called K-Visa has been designed to attract technology experts gh-level foreign personnel coming to work in China with the stated objective of competing with the United States and others another Western country is competing for scientific and technical talent However amidst the loud campaign e global talent race a controversial case in Hunan Province has sparked backlas ense public backlash In Shaoyang City Hunan Province two Indian-style pastry makers Working in the food and beverage sector has been officially designated as a qualified foreign expert position In addition e award each recipient reported receiving annual subsidy of 1 000 yuan approximately 140 dollars as a self-funded payment from the local government Two kitchen appliances in operation at The independent restaurants in Shaoyang City are under the jurisdiction of Shaoyang County County-level management of restaurants The worker stated that the kitchen staff were recruited through a labor brokerage company Each slice of cake Indian-style grilled food is sold for over 20 yuan about 2.8 U S dollars and is considered quite popular locally One of the kitchen appliances arrived in China last May on a work visa and undergo the annual medical examination arranged by the local Science and Industry Bureau according to information published on the official website of the Hunan provincial government Expert foreign personnel is defined as foreign technical or managerial staff working in Huna o carry out intergovernmental agreements international organizational agreements or contracts Economics and trade positions requiring at least a bachelor's degree and a minimum of five years of experience relevant professional experience Classifying these two food service staff members into this category was creasing public skepticism about the rigor of these standards On various platforms Social media saw a rapid surge in criticism with users posting comments on platforms ranging from Weibo to X Sarcastically so this is the standard for talent visa cases Chinese people can become Mastering this skill in half a day Where exactly does the technology lie And all you need is Not speaking Chinese automatically makes you a foreign expert some comments are even more harsh In this so-called heavenly dynasty society pays the price for every reckless decision made by those in power As long as you're not Chinese you automatically rank above everyone else Now even India has to flatter too—truly pathetic One user ended with a bitterly sarcastic remark Our party's noble tradition has long favored generous treatment of international friends over preferential care for our own people
