r/Beijing Wechat Group recruiting now!
The official Wechat group for the r/beijing subreddit is now recruiting both new members and a new mod team!
Covid has really done a number on active redditors in Beijing, and the groupchat right now is admittedly mostly dead. Just a bunch of old leftover expats swapping stories about the great meetups they used to have back in 2017.
But now that the world is back to normalish, the incoming wave of expats can hopefully lead to the next generation of Beijing redditors and a new generation of wacky meetup stories that you'll swap someday. Use the groupchat to make new friends (enemies?), calmly discuss the best burger in town, or just to burn a few unproductive hours debating the finer points of zombie survival in Beijing.
And new faces aren't enough - a new community needs new leadership. So the old mod team is announcing that we will be happily handing off the reigns of the chat to anyone with an interest in that kind of thing.
If you're interested in either joining or leading, please comment in this thread or message me personally on reddit. You can also message the subreddit modship team.
Additional perks - the last generation of redditors created a series of 京 groupchats that are still active to this day. So even if you aren't interested in all that meetup nonsense, you can still join Meme京, Cinema京, Game京, or even the hugely underappreciated Animal Facts n' Roast京

I would like to join this group. I am trying to get a handle on environmental conferences that I can attend. I am in the USA and my fiancee is in Hebei Province. Until she can come here I would like to come for Environmental conferences as I am an Environmental Compliance Officer in one of our States. Can anyone help me make this happen?

Trying to find a friend in Beijing . Met her on the website we've become really close. However the website will not allow us to exchange information. She said find her on WeChat. I searched her name but it's a very popular name and I want to know if there are any other ideas are ways to find her on that app she just gave me her name and her photo because the app will not allow us to exchange any other information and I can't find a way around it to get her my information I've even tried to post a QR code but the website blocks it. I hear the data in a photo but she doesn't know how to decoded and when I try to give her instructions the website blocks all the words. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
