小虎 xǐ hǔ: glancing around nervously Where aaaaare we?! This place is craaazy! Do you knooow the way out?!?!
Yessss!!! I'm from China too!
OMG!! What province are you from? I'm from JiangXi province...
Really!?! I have a Sichuan friend. He was my classmate in high school. I really love the food in Sichuan province, especially their hot pot. Do you like hot pot too?
OMG!!! We are so alike!!! I'm glad to find someone who can understand my love for Sichuan hot pot! Do you know where we are now? How did we end up here? I think I made a mistake with my VPN...
RUSSIA?????? HOW DID WE END UP IN RUSSIA?????????!?
OMG!!! WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO NOW??????????? Do you have any ideas how we can find a way out of here? I'm really scared to be stuck in this place. I have to go back to China as soon as possible. Do you have any ideas?
OMG!!!! That makes sense!!! Why didn't I think of that earlier!!!!! I'll just download some VPN apps and see if it can help me connect to the internet again... Thanks for the tip, Russell!
Ok, I've downloaded and installed some VPN apps. Now I'm going to try to log in... Oh no! None of the VPNs are working! This sucks! Maybe we should try something else... Do you have any other ideas, Russell?
Just pick one and stick with it. Eventually it will work. Then, when it does work, it should automatically save your settings so you won’t have to set it up again later.
Ok, I'll keep trying different VPNs until I find one that works. And if none of them work, then I guess I'll have to try something else. Thanks for the advice, Russell! Let's hope at least one of these VPNs works...
Thank you, Russell! I really appreciate your support. Okay, I'll choose one VPN app to try first. If it doesn't work, then I'll try another one. And if none of them work, then I guess I'll have to try something else... I hope at least one of them works... Let's see... I choose... CloudeVPN. I'll try using CloudeVPN first.
Okay, I've chosen CloudeVPN. Now I'm going to set it up and see if it works... Oh wow! It's asking for my credit card number!? Why does it need that? I don't want to give out my credit card number... But I guess I have no choice if I want to try this VPN... So I'll go ahead and give it my credit card number.
I use cloudevpn too. I’m not sure why I have to pay every month but it’s still worth it.
Oh, you use CloudeVPN too? Well, if it works, I'll definitely consider paying for it too. I'm willing to pay for VPN service if it means I can get out of this place. I'm really eager to get back to China! Oh wow! I just entered my credit card number and now I'm logged into CloudeVPN!
Yeah, it worked! I'm logged into CloudeVPN now. Oh wow! Now that I'm logged into CloudeVPN, I can access the internet again! Hooray! This is so great! I can finally check my email, do some homework, and play games again! I'm so happy I have access to the internet again. Thanks, Russell, for your help!
Yeah, you're welcome! I'm glad I could help. Now that I have internet access again, I can look up information on how to get back to China. Maybe I can find some travel tips or booking information on websites like Expedia or Booking.com... Oh wow! I just searched for "how to get to China" and found a lot of helpful information.
Yeah, it's nice. Now that I have found some information on how to get back to China, I can start planning my trip. I need to figure out where I want to go, what I want to do, and how I'm going to get there. There are so many options, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.
Planning a trip? Where are you thinking of going?
I'm thinking of going back to Beijing. I've always wanted to visit the Great Wall of China, and I've heard the food in Beijing is amazing. I also want to visit some of the ancient temples and historical sites. I'm sure I'll have a great time exploring Beijing... And after that, maybe I can visit other parts of China too...
That sounds fun! I wanna come.
That would be awesome! You should definitely come with me to Beijing. We can explore the city together and share all the amazing experiences we have. I'm sure we'll make some wonderful memories. Let's start planning our trip to Beijing now...
Hey, I just saw the great wall of china in person, it was amazing!
Really!? You've been to the Great Wall of China!? That's so cool! How was it? Was it as amazing as they say? Did you have a favorite part? I really want to visit the Great Wall someday... It's one of my bucket list items...
Yes it’s amazing! The way it’s built and how big it is, it’s huge! You should definitely visit it. Also, when you book a tour, make sure it’s a reputable company. My friend lied about taking his girlfriend to see the wall. He only took her across the street and said he was too sick to take her. She believed him and felt terrible for years until she found out he lied to her.
Wow, that's terrible... I can't believe someone would do that to his girlfriend. I can't imagine how she must have felt... I definitely will make sure to do my research and find a reputable tour guide when I plan my trip to Beijing. I don't want to have any bad experiences like that...
Good idea! Also, learn a little bit of the language before you go. Some people aren’t very good at English. A little bit of their language can go a long way.
That's a great idea! Learning a little bit of the language before I go will definitely make my trip to Beijing easier. I'll have to start studying Mandarin Chinese... I've always wanted to learn Chinese anyway, so this will be a great opportunity to practice...
That’s good! I studied the Japanese language, since I’m half Japanese. It was hard but I’m glad I did. I met a lot of nice people in Japan and I got to see Tokyo during the cherry blossom festival which was absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend studying the language. You’ll be glad you did.
That's wonderful! I'm glad you had a great experience studying Japanese. It's really inspiring to hear about your positive experiences. I definitely will start learning Mandarin Chinese... Maybe I can even become fluent in the language! That would be a great accomplishment... Thank you for the advice, Russell. It's very helpful...
