Stas Natanzon, a well-known Russian journalist, has just concluded his trip to China, stating that the level of development he witnessed there left him stunned—far surpassing other countries, making nations like France seem "backward" in comparison.
He said that Chinese people "accept new technologies much more readily than Europeans," and that new ideas "take root almost instantly." He added that Russians also demonstrate a similar rapid adaptability when it comes to adopting things like online banking.
In contrast, he believes the French are "very resistant to new technologies," pointing out that even with food delivery apps available, many still ask: "Why should I order takeout? Can't I just go to the store and buy it myself?"
Overall, he views China as living in a world "far more advanced" both ideologically and materially than any other part of humanity, lamenting: "They have 5G even in mountainous areas... 5G in the mountains!"
