China8687 is about China's development from the 1980s to now. This is important to you because China is now moving back toward that time. I went to China earlier, studied China deeper, traveled in China farther and stayed in China longer than almost anyone. I went to China when everything was opening and hopeful, and I left when it was clear China was moving in a different direction after 2012.

China 8687-010 - Meeting the Crew
<p>The China8687 podcast, Episode 010 - “Meeting the Crew” is released.</p> <p>"...The Foreign Affairs Department oversaw foreign students in every school in China. They watched and controlled us, which was challenging for them. China was a hierarchical culture; leaders were used to being obeyed. We were American college students, not used to obeying authority. The rules in Chinese universities were different from the US. Chinese college students all lived in dorms, weren’t supposed to date, couldn’t drive cars… They seemed like high school kids to us. We were not interested in playing that role…"</p> <p> </p> <p>Find the China8687 podcast on Apple Podcasts;</p> <p><a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492</a></p> <p>and</p> <p>Spotify; </p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49"> https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49</a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong><u>About the China8687 Podcast...</u></strong></p> <p>An American student, teacher, traveler, and 15-year expat businessman describes China as she developed from the 1980s to now.</p> <p>“I am here to tell you the story of China’s development from the 1980s to now.

China8687-009 - Entering the Gate
<p>"...Shanxi Teacher’s University (STU) had been founded as a three-year teacher institute. It was upgraded to a university in a big push to increase the quantity of college graduates dramatically in China. The Cultural Revolution in the 1960’s and ‘70s closed all the schools, so they were playing catch up. Every province and almost every major city had a teacher’s college. STU President Tao Benyi was from Shanghai; he was considered a progressive administrator. He welcomed us, though not everyone else seemed to.</p> <p>Schools like ours and almost every kind of organization I saw in China had a gate and tall walls all around them. Most universities in the US might have a ceremonial gate somewhere, but the campus was open all around to all kinds of traffic. Even large corporations were the same. In China you had to go through a guarded checkpoint and often show ID to get on campus…"</p> <p> </p> <p>Find the China8687 podcast on Apple Podcasts;</p> <p><a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492</a></p> <p>and</p> <p>Spotify; </p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49"> https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49</a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong><u>About the China8687 podcast...</u></strong></p> <p>An American student, teacher, traveler, and 15-year expat businessman describes China as she developed from the 1980s to now.</p> <p>“I am here to tell you the story of China’s development from the 1980s to now.

China8687-008 - The Beijing Train Station
<p>"...Our first week in Beijing wound down quickly and soon it was time to board the steam train to Linfen City in Shanxi Province where we would study Chinese for a year. I had no idea what to expect, Beijing already seemed very foreign and undeveloped in some ways to me, what would Shanxi be like?... The Beijing Train Station was a door to another dimension of travel. We crowded through the main front portal with thousands of others pushing to get on the train like bodychecking in a hockey game. I wondered what all the fuss was about; I figured we all had assigned seats, so what was the rush?..."</p> <p> </p> <p>Find the China8687 podcast on Apple Podcasts...<a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Link</a></p> <p><a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/china8687/id1651271492</a></p> <p> </p> <p>and Spotify...<a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Link</a></p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49"> https://open.spotify.com/show/5JJZMY6G5xyzi4tgv3qgC8?si=276eb31e4ffa4b49</a></p> <p> </p> <p><u>About the China8687 podcast...</u></p> <p>An American student, teacher, traveler, and 15-year expat businessman describes China as she developed from the 1980s to now.</p> <p> </p> <p>“I am here to tell you the story of China’s development from the 1980s to now.
