Lol. Probably is the biggest QR code I've ever seen. A piece of street art work. #qrcode #shanghai (at Shanghai City)

Consumer society. It's fascinating to watch customers wandering in a market. I observed their behaviors in a candy shop upstairs on a busy Sunday afternoon. The great selection of candies provided by the shop surprised lots of its visitors. The rest were just wandering casually. Most people liked to check labels before they buy anything. They observed those gorgeously packed products, picked them up, looked at packages up and down, over and over, but eventually put them back. A sensible customer will remain sensible, while irrational buyers will act irrational. It's so interesting watching a group of people doing certain things in a spontaneous space. #consumption #shanghai #livelyfieldnote (at 五角場)

Marriage market - 这小英文谁翻的简直太传神啦 #marriagemarket (at Marriage Market 相親角)

[allemandeniu]

Marriage market at Renmin Park in Shanghai - parents come here and bring their children's information written down in a piece of paper. Then they will hang those papers up to exhibit in front of other date-hunters. People are like commodities in a trade... 我国适龄男女青年找结婚对象问题已经如燎原之火🔥横扫了大半个中国。。从西部偏远地区到中国大陆经济最发达的城市，“找对象”这三个字恐怕已经变成人们的口头禅了…我终于见到了传说中上海人民公园的相亲红娘角，看这美丽的展示区，一个个单身男女的个人资料如小传单般设计并且挂在一起形成独特的风景…个人的特质被物化，被符号化，被转换为可以量化的指标：学历，年龄，身高，资产，户籍…那些不能量化的，既无法放到小传单上也并不重要。 #livelyfieldnote #shanghai #renmenpark #相亲 #marriagemarket (at Marriage Market 相親角)

釜底抽薪 - literally means taking away the firewood from under the cauldron - to take a drastic measure to deal a tough situation, describing exactly this scene.

Chinese Chengguan is so unbelievable. Last week, we were walking down the street to buy a rice cake. A bunch of Chengguan dropped by all of a sudden and confiscated this vender's handcart. And that fruit vender's cart, too... So that pedlers will be unable to sell their things for a while. We understand it is the uniform man's duty but...how can they possibly come back home without a cart?

This is the most straightforward advertisement I've ever seen. "To capture my heart, first you must match my salary." It is considered heartfelt in metropolitan cities of China. #advertisement (at Oriental Pearl Tower)

I thought that every cup noodle has forks in it. But no fork at Cup Noodles made in Hong Kong. This is one of my favorite brand, Cup Noodles. The cup made in mainland China has much less noodles than the ones that we bought in Hong Kong. Why do they change their quality??
