Every time I see a dump like this I have to run over to Wikipedia and check out the lists of aircraft/tanks/ships/missiles they're currently fielding, and shake my head. Their equipment is almost literally the line-up of the Beijing Military Museum, with the exception of the 35 monkey-model Mig-29s (which must be down to single digit hours left in the useful life of their engines).

There are definitely some cuties, but "you know who" has dibs on all of them.

I read this before, but looking back at it again is just LOL in every possible way.

quote:

“I told Li Dong we were ready head back to the airport, but there was something going on with the local promoter. He wanted Iverson to do some kind of video. At the time I was confused. But the local promoter said we couldn’t leave Harbin until Iverson made a video apologizing to the fans of Harbin. Apologize for what?”

Prior to Iverson’s arrival, Li Dong made a side deal with the local promoter of Harbin stating Iverson to play in the game. So the local promoter had no problems selling tickets to local fans advertising the former NBA MVP to play in an exhibition game. Li Dong knew the contract with Iverson is a coaching only contract. But coaching might not sell tickets, and in the end, coaching might not get Li Dong the money he wants. So what Li Dong thought he could do, is lie to the local promoters, and have the local promoters lie to the fans, and finally try and use some convincing skills to make Iverson play. But Iverson wasn’t budging. He is in no shape to be playing. So when Iverson refused Li Dong’s constant effort to make him play, Li Dong was in trouble. According to sources familiar with the situation, Li Dong approached some of the American players from ‘Team Iverson’ after the game and demanded them to tell the Chinese media that Iverson didn’t play due to a leg injury.

So back to the hotel, the next morning, after the game. Iverson and his crew are being held hostage at the hotel lobby. The local promoter is telling all the taxis not to take Iverson anywhere. The local promoter needs to save himself because he, due in large part to Li Dong’s blatant lie about Iverson playing, misled the public into buying tickets for an event that didn’t really happen the way it was advertised.

If anyone is still confused what Face is all about, this is pure Facery.

Many top level footballers who played in Europe now go on to China for a "last payday" after they're over the top in the top European leagues. I wonder how their experiences are, do they also get scammed and lied to at every step, so far I haven't heard anything. The closest I got was a class mate of mine befriended an Argentinan player for Shanghai Shenhua. And while I never met the player in question from the few stories my classmate told me, the Argentinan was utterly miserable in Shanghai not due to money, but because he couldn't even speak English let alone Chinese so he just was alone in his huge penthouse when not training/playing.

call me a racist or an orientalist I don't care, I posted the Iverson story, and the other one about world records, on my Facebook and just wrote "CHINA" and it gets liked only from people who have lived and worked in China, but they all get it. It is China at its most pure. If you have not experienced things like this, you either have never been to China or you spend all day watching Netflix in your apartment.

There is nothing more China than these two stories, along with "bulldozer battle"

I don't know. I stopped reading after the never-Chinars started talking about China based on what they think they know, which is basically the same as seeing China come up anywhere else and people regurgitating what they read in the newspaper. I saw someone say something about how China and its culture is very modern and open now, and it's not what people think, and I LOLd.
