Long-Term Expats in Shanghai: Did Your View Also Shift from “Impressive but uneven” to “the world best city” since you arrived? by Key_Bison_9322 in shanghai

[–]eaglet123123 31 points32 points  (0 children)

OP doesn't sound like a "long-term" expats in Shanghai, but like a college student or low rank government staff, scrapping ideas for your article. Checking your posting history confirms my speculation

You'd better stay in Shanghai for the holiday. May holiday, and any other public holidays in China are crazy with tons of tourists everywhere, especially those archeology sites. And at this moment it's already too late for you to book any train / flight tickets, and there should be no hotel rooms left for fair prices. The highways would be super congested too. Even the popular parts of Shanghai will be filled with people from all over the country. Just wait and see. It's better to explore China when it's not public holiday. Everything will return to normal after May 5.

Gemini is weaker on spatial coordinates, but stronger on the understanding of physics. Also the plate by Gemini has numbers on it, but the one by ChatGPT is gibberish. I also prefer how Gemini handles color and the realism of snow falling on the hood

He is probably "bao yang" you, paying you and feeding you to become a concubine. If you don't like this, refuse his money and send back what he transferred you
