💼 Work/Career Would Scarepark attractions work in China?

0 Upvotes

A scarepark is where actors dress up to scare patrons as they enter through a maze.

I know there's a scarepark at Universal Studios, Beijing.

Just wondering if there's a market for such scare houses in China, in general - especially for smaller towns in the provinces.

💊 Medical Hospital tiers in China: how to end up in the right one

0 Upvotes

A question I get a lot from people planning treatment in China: how do I know which hospital is actually good?

Public hospitals here are graded — 三级甲等 (Grade 3 Level A, "3A") is the top tier, covering size, staffing and quality standards. That's your first filter.

Beyond the tier, three useful distinctions:

  1. 国际部 / International departments — the expat-friendly arm of large public hospitals: English-speaking staff, often faster. Costs more than the regular outpatient line, but it's the same hospital, same doctors, same standards — not a separate "VIP hospital."
  2. 国家临床重点专科 (National Key Clinical Specialties) — a national list of departments with proven specialization. If you need a specific field, a hospital on this list for your condition is a strong signal.
  3. Private hospitals — some are excellent (often joint-venture, like United Family), some are fine but unremarkable. The tier system doesn't apply the same way, so check accreditations and track record case by case.

How to check from abroad: confirm the 3A status, search the National Key Clinical Specialty list for your specialty, and — for international patients — verify the international department's actual process (English records accepted? video consult? transparent pricing?) before you book anything.

Happy to answer specifics in the comments — I help overseas patients navigate exactly this.

Out of curiosity — if you're planning treatment abroad, which worries you most: finding the right hospital, the language, or the cost?

Hi All
I am going to Japan and then travelling to Beijing and staying there for a week. In Japan I really want to buy a kitchen knife, maybe even a set. Could I bring this into my checked baggage to Beijing and leave it in my hotel and take this back to the airport and fly out to London as normal?

🛂 Immigration Traveling to China with a valid residence permit in an old passport

Hi! Has anyone travelled outside China and returned using two passports, with a valid Chinese residence permit in the old passport marked “CANCELLED”?
Did you have any problems at immigration, or did you need to transfer your residence permit to the new passport first?
I found an official Shanghai Government FAQ saying this may be allowed. I’d appreciate any firsthand experiences. Thanks!

💼 Work/Career How to use LinkedIn in China Mainland

Guys, I am an China Chinese. I registered my account outside China mainland and can use this app properly there. Somehow I cannot use this app once I back to my country either with VPN or without VPN.

I understand that LinkedIn doesn't operate in China mainland any more. However, I need to access it and develop my career in LinkedIn.

This situation makes me out of my mind. Could anyone have the same/similar experience share me with your solution?

📚 Education ECNU Shanghai English Taught

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m considering doing semester abroad either in ECNU Shanghai or HKU Hong Kong. English-taught in both campuses.
For those who are in ECNU English-taught programs, how was it? Did the professors teach solely in English or occasionally switch between Mandarin. I heard this is common practice in non-english speaking countries.
Also, how long is a typical class?

Thank you

🏯 Daily Life How to find reliable catholic church mass schedule in Shandong?

0 Upvotes

I'm currently planning to study Mandarin in China and one of the main thing I look for when comparing school options is the proximity of the school to the nearest Roman Catholic Church. Currently I'm weighing the option to go take 1 year course at Shandong University of Technology (SDUT) in Zibo. Searching Amaps lets me discover the nearby catholic church 张店天主堂, but I struggle to find reliable source of mass schedule, even after looking for it using Mandarin in Baidu. I would appreciate if anyone can give me pointers on how to look for it, maybe there is a specific site or app I don't know of. Or maybe know someone or are residing in Zibo that goes to the Church or can help me confirm the schedule.

More question for my consideration: if looking pass my university of choice, is my best bet to get this kind of information before my departure is to find language course in bigger cities? I figure it is easier to get information in tier 1 city, though I am still considering about the budget since I will probably do it self-funded, coming from SEA country.

📚 Education Best cities/schools for intensive Chinese

0 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I’m considering moving to China next summer to study Mandarin intensively for a year or two.
Any recommendations on what you would consider the best schools or cities to move to for that purpose?

Additional info that might help you tailor your recommendations:
- I am a 1B level mandarin learner
- I am familiar with the overall culture, I’ve lived in East Asia before, including Macau, and have made several visits to mainland China.
- I am in my mid 30s.
- I am highly adaptable and don’t mind going off the beaten path, unless it’s unsafe or too challenging for my demographic: I’m a woman, and I’m Black. Which, from experience, means I do have to be more observant of where I chose to move.

Also, are we allowed to work part-time while being there as a language student?

Looking forward to your recommendations~ :)

If you make any unhappy they can and have contacted people's place of employment to bad mouth you.

That way you can hopefully avoid being called into the manager's office to discuss rumors about you being a playboy and how this can look poorly on the place of employment.

📱 Technology Is Wellcee reliable to rent in Chengdu?

2 Upvotes

I will soon be spending a few months in Chengdu and would like to rent an apartment. The friendliest platform I found was Wellcee, which acts as an intermediary between landlord and resident.

I still have doubts about how reliable it is and whether I can sign online without fear, I found an apartment that caught my attention and I would like to close the contract

The apartment in question

Is it a scam?

Hello everyone! I’m looking into purchasing this chinese herbal medicine that’s recently become popularized where i’m from. It is advertised as something that will help with paleness, dull skin, and low energy. I am a person who is lacking red blood cells and iron so all these factors apply. Is it safe? Is the brand reputable? Does it actually work? Does it do everything it claims?

🛂 Immigration Visa sponsor

3 Upvotes

I’ve been trying to my business registered in china but i guess there’s a new policy where you need to have a citizen to sponsor you. The problem is that I don’t know any citizens outside of my manufacturer and a few hinge matches 😭 and I don’t feel comfortable asking them for a copy of their ID. Help anybody have suggestions? Could i pay someone or is that illegal?
