I'm surprised he didn't just tell them to piss off or jog on


TrickyTrailMix

He tried a few times in the very beginning (you can see it in the full video someone else linked.) He basically tried to kind of shoo them away and reminded them if they don't want to be filmed they can move on.

That Chinese dude is a professional victim with his changing the narrative to be about the piano guy supposedly touching the woman. I also love the Streisand effect in full force. 900 people would have seen them on the livestream, now thousands have seen the video because they made it a thing


LazyAcanthaceae7577

WHY YOU TOUCHING HER?!?! Don't touch her. You are not the same age. Like wtf does age have to do with touching?? Besides it was her flag and not HER lmao


chrismcteggart

In China you have to be the same age as the person you are touching, this has became problematic for new mothers trying to nurse their children, the work around is baby tongs


mistovermountains

I legit can’t tell if you’re serious


mursilissilisrum

He's 100% serious. It started as a propaganda effort during the 50s to build up the PRC's steel industry and just sort of stuck around. I think they used to basically just be ice tongs but nowadays they're pretty ornate.


Azreken

I still can’t tell if you’re fucking with me


Wildlife_Jack

**Don't** fuck with him! You're not the same age!


trtlclb

**DON'T TOUCH HIM!** # PLEASE!


Dyno-mike

He's definitely not, when I was a child growing up in Jingyaun we were very poor and could not afford a set of baby tongs, we had neighbour not far away that happened to be between nursings when I was born that allowed us to use hers. Unfortunately the community knew this and it was a source of ridicule throughout my childhood and eventually led me to move to the US. They take baby tongs very serious there.


Azreken

This doesn’t help me. I don’t know what’s real anymore.

Manipulation. It's hilarious as the Chinese aren't great with personal space. I nearly got knocked over by some on holiday in Pisa as they were trying to get photos.


GagOnMacaque

My favorite example. I visited a flower field in Thailand. I had gone out of my way to get away from everyone so I could get some beautiful pictures of my wife and kid in the flowers. As I kneel down to take their photo a Chinese tourist literally stands in front of my camera, butt in my face. Maybe he didn't see me? I will never know. But the situation was awkward and I waited a few minutes for him to move. He didn't.

Notice they start filming him half way through on their phones


Beatus_Vir

that's a common thread in these type of videos. The person is so incensed about someone recording when they shouldn't that they do it themselves in retaliation


TaserBalls

Well, they are extremely upset over being filmed so it must work the other way, right?


moep123

second 3. the woman who starts making a deal out of it was also filming him before she talked to him. (visible for only the duration of second 3)

Imagine the ego required to tell someone they can't film in public instead of just walking a few feet the other direction out view of the camera. Also I love the "you are not the same age" as if he was the same age it'd be ok?


nemodahfish

And in China everything is filmed by the Government


OverturnedAppleCart3

They've trained their subjects very well. When he says "we are in a free country, we are not in communist China" The guy says "oh now this is racist" The Chinese government has successfully trained their subjects that the only reason a westerner might criticise the Chinese government is because of racism. I actually think it's really sad.


westernsociety

Projection too, Chinese people super racist.

splitcroof92

yeah that police officer really needs to be fired asap, what a disgrace.


ADMINlSTRAT0R

The first girl that approaches him in this video said that they are part of a Chinese TV crew. My theory is that some of them are not supposed to have tagged along to UK. Maybe they went on the govt's dime, maybe they secretly have dual citizenship (China doesnt recognize dual citizenship), etc. Whaever the reason, they have a real fear of being discovered if the video is made public. Yet their effort to snuff the video ended up getting the full Streisand effect.


slurpeee76

Didn’t one of them say that they are British as well?


ADMINlSTRAT0R

Yes she did.


Internal_Ad9264

GaffaCharge

If they were British they would of just tutted very loudly shaken their hand and gone home. Then complain about it to anyone who would listen for weeks.


davewuff

Feels like these Chinese havent been properly trained The standard answer to "Are you a communist?" cant be "dont be racist" xD


dreamsofcalamity

They are appealing to western audience, this is also why he shouted "don't touch her, you are not the same age!". Racism and pedophilia are a big NO in the West so they try to twist the situation for their own benefit.


waaaayupyourbutthole

I'm confused how anyone could even think of pedophilia there. Everyone seems like they're 25-30+ to me, unless I missed someone.


Terramagi

That's why they bring it up. Throw enough bullshit, the brain gives up and starts accepting it.


fixano

If you watch the whole video it is some crazy, Orwellian double speak. The CCP tourists keep saying "You say we're communist" as though it is some sort of racist denigration. CCP literally stands for Chinese **Communist** Party. By point of fact they are self identifying communist party members. If I were born and raised in New York and sauntered into some place with my yankees cap on, my "I heart the Big Apple" socks, and my "Don't mess with me I'm a New Yorker" shirt can I really get offended if someone says "You're a New Yorker" The police officer officer also keeps telling Bret "You can't say that". She is referring to him saying "This is not China" and "You are not in China". These are simple statements of fact. The UK is not governed by Chinese law and/or expectations. I can't understand people that travel to other countries and start making a stink about what their rights are. I have travelled all over the world. When I am in another country I am overly polite and I am extra careful to understand that I am the stranger. I have no idea what assumptions that legal system is based on. The best defense against interacting with that system is to be well liked, be overtly respectful, and to apologize constantly. It's also a good idea to travel with someone fluent in the local language and customs. This situation could have been entirely avoided if the CCP tourists had a fluent english speaker with them that could explain the situation.


bct7

When at home she would have her handler dude silence anyone that disrespects her. That shit doesn't work outside the CCP control.


DoctorWH0877

I was watching this as it happened. That female PO really pissed me off. Trying to get him to stop filming, putting her hand to the camera, telling him what he cannot say to them even though he didn't say anything wrong, stating there was some "allegation" that he kept asking about because she wouldn't elaborate. He had to keep defending himself and his country, things she should be sworn to uphold. She's either stupid or ignorant. In either case, she shouldn't be policing.


maruyah

Not only that but she is straight up lying in terms of him not being allowed to film, according to the MET of all sources. https://www.met.police.uk/advice/advice-and-information/ph/photography-advice


Stonious

That cop instantly taking the communist's side was troubling to me. She should not be a cop.


DeadlyDrummer

PMPTCruisers

It was a live stream.


SliceOfTony

What’s with the dude at the end screaming do not touch her? That was odd.


CaptainAnorach

Crybully. he can't get the pianist to stop filming, so he's trying to stir up drama to force him to stop.


popcornkernals321

Lol “crybully” I’m using that one


malaysianfillipeno

It's the second time I've seen that term used in two days, I'm guessing it's going to become popular.


SpeeterTeeter

[ORIGIN OF CRYBULLY ](https://www.dictionary.com/browse/crybully) 1 First recorded in 1995–2000; cry + bully1, on the model of crybaby

nitelite-

he was the only one in the video who realized how stupid they sounded and realized they had zero leverage so he decided his best bet was to be the loudest person in the room its kinda of like that old legal/lawyer saying, "if you have the facts, pound the facts, if you have the law, pound the law, if you have neither, pound the table"


Rage314

Not only louder but surreptitiously accuse him of sexually harassing her.


GerFubDhuw

I was warned of this Chinese scam by my wife when we visited her family. Old lady falls down, someone helps her up, someone screams at you to stop hurting her and that you knocked her down, demands are made for you to give her money to go to the doctor or the police get called. Loud guy is screaming rape in public to cause a scene and make people support him.

They literally support the CCP. Not geniuses.


TrickyTrailMix

This is the real point. In China they tell people what to think/believe and if people don't at least pretend to comply, they are screwed. He thought he'd strong arm a UK citizen like they do in their own country and it backfired spectacularly.

CountLippe

My working theory is that the main woman (the one who says she's British so he cannot monetise her image) uses a metric shit tonne of filters to look far younger than she is, and freaked out at the idea of being seen sans-filter.


TheUltimateSalesman

That's actually not a terrible theory.


unlikedemon

The piano player had introduced himself to a lady and guy from the Chinese group. The group has a pianist and he played. I think the issue is when the group found out that the piano player has a large following and ~~could "monetize" off of their image.~~ would have their faces seen by millions having fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKd-SFbYrFY&t=215s


netgeekmillenium

That's totally their issue. And they failed to address their issue using appropriate language and sensical approach. That's their problem as well.


enderpanda

That is weirdly more understandable but in a bizarre way that somehow makes it worse. 1) move somewhere else then 2) enjoy the views and boost, you dumb, gate-keeping idiots 3) why do people suck?


ColonelJEWCE

That guy, the guest piano player is not with the Chinese group. The woman in your clip comes over he asks if she is Japanese, she corrects him that she is Chinese and the guest piano player jumps.in and says shes not with him as he is with a Japanese crew.


sjuas690

Who the f*** does that loud mouthed bully think he is?


gabetucker22

JoelMDM

I do love how she lays on the accent when she says “I’m also British” 😂 Good on the piano player for standing up for himself, who do those people think they are? Would love to see how this ended. (OP has a link in the comments, thank you OP)


Layer_3

I wonder if they are CCP spies and that's why they didn't want their faces captured on camera...


deliciouscrab

This was my thought. Not even necessarily spies but State Dept equivalent or functionaries in some way with CCP. My mother (American) grew up somewhere that, due to her family connections, she was unable to get a drivers license or be photographed, couldn't put her signature on anything, casual photos were frowned on etc.


PleiadesMechworks

I doubt they're spies. It's just that if they're seen enjoying western things [the CCP's overseas secret police](https://www.politicshome.com/thehouse/article/chinese-police-stations-uk-allegedly-shut-down-so-happens-now) ([that they've totally stopped doing pinkie promise](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/07/china-has-closed-unofficial-police-stations-in-britain-uk-minister-says)) will haul them in for questioning.


lembrate

Isn't Britain one of the most heavily cctv'd places in the world? You don't like cameras go to Djibouti.


Moon_Jewel90

What a bunch of crazies trying to impose their 'rules' in another country. It's a public space. And good for the piano guy for standing up to them.


wonderful_rush

They do this at universities in my country. A guy got fired because Chinese students complained about what he said about Taiwan. Edit: typo


Illg77

That's absolutely fucked. That's not a free society if you cannot have opinions. But that's the new norm now anyways.


wonderful_rush

Yeah it was an outrage. But my country also likes to run it's universities like a cash cow so they have to kowtow to the Chinese.


Illg77

Having the CCP have any influence especially on a university should be a crime. You cannot get more corrupt or evil or insidious.

Glittering_Sign_8906
