Why don't Chinese people believe others ?
retarded ?i should have said that they don't easily believe what others say, lol, not that every chinese people thoughOK, I should add this ,too :
To prevent that you guyz think i'm just a chinese-hater, I've worked in china for a couple of months, had a chinese girl friend, and even my cousin's husband is a chinese guy, so I've got many chances to get along with chinese people from many different places in China,
What I wanted to stress by this question is that :
As they have been living under the communist's government, They can easily open their mind to anyone,
So they just suspect rather than try to trust or believe others (could be chinese, not only foreigners)
To answer for your 'answer',
@Gracebaby
You totally misunderstand what I mean by this question. No matter if they are friendly or not, Basically it depends on person,
but they tend to be not trustful even to their old friends, don't they ?
@Michelle
Well, I thought you are a french girl, just checked your profile, It says you are a chinese,
I have many friends(not only buddies met only on the internet) from all over the world,
Only when I talk to chinese, some problem occur, I don't know why,
I can say my romanian buddy trusts me much more than my chinese ex girl friend did, =)
Could it be still depending on person ?, but most of my friends are trying to understand me as they trust me while chinese people ever known try to ask a question till they get the answer what they want to hear from me.
Stubborn ! @Joyce
Your answer may be correct,,,,,more if you are chinese@ -- <-- what 's your alias ? lol
Do not go mad, bro
I understand you are proud of living under the cummunist's government(sorry for the typo, i didn't fix it)
Not everyone, but most of 'em, then Can it make sense ?
I'm not trying to be funny (see, you already tried to be sarcastic)
For that i used the term 'retarded', Basically It can be used to whom easily goes mad =)
Cheers@Matt
Yeah, Eventually you who really understands what I want to say by this question replied,
Google once got kicked out of China,
Chinese government still blocks a lot of IPs connected from overseas,
CCTV , the biggest chinese broadcasting company , didn't really broadcast what it was going on when Tibet was riot-ed,
Thx for the right answer@pan
thx for the answer, you are from China, You are generous!
@James
Haha, That's exactly what I felt when i was in China, It seemed like I took drugs and was seeing a delusion,
@joeRay
Hope there would be politics@XiaoHei
Well, Mr.XiaoHei(Little Black)
You have the point of view !
Yeah, I'm not a little dude nor a jerk so that I just a bit exaggerated what i wanted to say,
It would be ok to be asked 'Why do Korean people eat dog meat ? ' , And only a few dudes would stupidly answer 'It's not every Korean eats dog meat, only some people, even i don't eat dog meat, fag ! '
But, The main purpose of the question is pointing at Korean culture rather than each individual from Korea.
I think you 'd agree , if you read this,
So I think I answered for your first question, to explain it again, I didn't really mean I think that EVERY chinese people don't believe others when they come as individuals, I was talking about some more things might have affected by their cultural & the political background.
For your second statement, I've worked with chinese people in a chinese company, They were so very nice ! Yeah , I can't deny, but it's true they also didn't (easily, I don't think I should put this word onto this though) believe or trust others, even themselves !!!!!!
It doesn't mean they are bad, they are still nice while they don't believe each other ! that's interesting !
Well, Your third statement is about the preference,
I dare try to trust people even they are strangers, I first try to trust them before I suspect them =)
You might ask what i would do if they tried to cheat , but I can see what's right or wrong, even how to rescue myself from cheap tricks getting on me.
Seems you are a kind of businessman dealing with chinese people or dreaming of a business with chinese, You must learn how to trust people first , that's the basics of business, of course, you must be trustworthy !
For your forth statement,
I do not read chinese news because i know it's censored,
I think western news or media is telling the truth more than chinese' itself,
Even chineses people who never got out of the country do not know whether what they see from media which censored & even generated by the government is right or wrong
Salut !
@XiaoHei
Well you just deleted the sentences about Korean eats dog & other racial stuff,
You said that a person isn't allowed to ask such a question......
It's not negative nor even positive, If you thought I tried to go negative toward china & chinese people by seeing that I wrote 'retarded', That's my fault, I'd agree for that I used a bad word out of my concern, =),
but, as long as there are still some people go mad only for the literal meaning of A SENTENCE, I 'd keep it as it's written.
As you said, You do not trust people , well i forgot to add 'easily' between 'not' & 'trust', either,
then Can I understand you may judge your personality negatively =)
I think It's a kind of paradox that I'm asking you about, Hope you understand what I want to stress by all that I wrote,
All the best,
@silent demon
wtf, lolyoo-hoo ! chinese man power !@一
Is your alias is the number 'One' in chinese ? , ok, I dunno what being qualified at all to come across as an expert studying Chinese social phenomenon well is needed for, as i don't think you understand what I've been talking about......that's so sad
Politics should have already come out of your thought to answer my question, if you'd treated it seriously....
No matter if i'm Korean or Japanese or even Chinese,
Technically I'm not chinese, but what would u say if i was Chinese ?
I'm already losing an interest of answering for almost same things,
I'm sure I've learnt about Chinese history(not only the ancient history which can't be said the current china's) much enough to talk about the problems of China, =)
No matter if some of your chinese fellow got disappointed, probably I might not want them either,
While I posted all these answers, I made up friends with many Chinese buddies who open-minded.
OK, I don't want to make this any longer,
I enjoyed this, =)@Allen
Thanks for the clearer answer ~@Duru,
I also like my friends & my cousin's husband(a chinese), i'm not asking only about a person =), generally chinese people have a problem as already mentioned by generous chinese people on this question,
@Oliver
My spoken chinese is just good enough for a foreigner, I have chinese friends, and I even worked in a chinese company , of course I've been using chinese for so long ~ , I have a chinese family member, =)
我会中文,我在中国的公司工作过, 有多的中国朋友, 我觉得我理解他们,还有, 他们也理解我,
但是,他们也给我说他们一起不相信,这是中国的问题,(well, i might have added some explanation about it, but i hope u'd understand)
THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL THING, i already mentioned on the additional details & SEVERAL CHINESE people understood what i meant, PLZ REFER TO WHAT they mentioned in SHORT,
All of them who understood my purpose with this question mentioned 'POLITICS' or relevant issues,
PLZ do not get me wrong

Well, as per general community guidelines, a person is not allowed to ask such a question that would pass a negative judgement on a entire race or a country.
As a non-chinese, I would give you my views.
1) Firstly, you are generalising. Have you done research on a million Chinese people and then come to this conclusion? It's the same as saying all people in the Middle-east ride camels or all Koreans eat dogs. Maybe, there is something wrong with you instead that they don't trust you easily?
2) I have been in touch with a few Chinese people and have been to China a few times. I have also been to a few other countries around the world. I don't think the Chinese are different than other people from other countries. They are also humans with the same feelings as any of us.
3) With the kind of people in this world, do you think it is best to easily trust anyone? I don't trust people easily either and I don't think I would be happy if someone trusted me easily without verifying things.
4) I frequenlty read articles on western-based news channels like Yahoo, and tell you what, I see a definite agenda they seem to be following, i.e. maligning every positive news that comes out of China. I ask myself why? Your opinion seems to me terribly biased too.
I can go on and on, but you get the gist?
Cheers.
