As an aside:
In America, #TikTok is a platform for sharing fun and happiness.

The Korean War was probably the most important war to China in the recent history, even more important than the civil war or the anti-Japanese war.
(1/X)
Because winning the civil war simply showed that the CPC was the stronger faction within China.
Winning against the Japanese showed that the CPC can win a defensive war of attrition, especially when the enemy is fighting multiple fronts.
PLA occupied the ROC's capital.👇

Do you know the young man in the photo wearing an undershirt in the field with the farmers?
He is Xi Jinping in 1982.
He began his political career in Zhengding County, one of China's poorest regions.
40 years later, he became China's top leader.
The first policy Xi implemented in Zhengding was to lower the share of grains paid by farmers to the govt and to increase the cultivation of economic crops to raise farmers' incomes.
When he became China's president, “revitalizing the villages” remained one of his basic policies.
Xi's proposal of "tax cuts" for local farmers was fiercely opposed by his leaders.
Instead of shrinking back, he found a political ally, Lu Yulan, a local "model laborer" deputy county chief, and together they applied to the central government for the policy.
They made it.

So, this global CrowdStrike/Microsoft failure has no impact on China.
As for CRS (Computer Reservation System), ICS (Inventory Control System) and DCS (Departure Control System)... the world's main suppliers are SABRE, GALILEO, and AMADEUS.
In China, 🇨🇳TravelSky company has developed its own complete solutions.
So, as far as the civil aviation industry is concerned, China's civil aviation has replaced the underlying operating system, security software and application system software with products from Chinese companies in the past few years.

"I decided to choose the shared room over a private room. I ended up sharing the room with one Chinese man. The room was very basic (50rmb per night), but I was fine with it. It had a window, AC, TV and bathroom with western toilet, sink and shower."
"The nursing staff was unbelievable. Just incredibly hard working and did their best to help me. None of them spoke English to me, but they always had their phones out with translation software ready to go. I felt bad about that and like a burden."
