>China's Four New Inventions >Literally NONE of them were remotely invented in Chinahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_new_inventions?wprov=sfla1Why do they do this...? Their propaganda can be so sloppy sometimes
If you put a gun to the head of 1.5 billion chinks and force them to say it is so then even the biggest lie can become "truth"
the most common chinese invetion is vape, which isnt really something to brag about
Cool china inventions>Paper>Fireworks>Powder>Money>Confucionism
Most inventions these days are huge collab projects. The days of the lone inventor are mostly gone, see the research paper authors from google that kicked off machine learning to what it is now.
>>214419640I think to be more charitable interpreting it:>drawing inspiration from the Four Great Inventions of ancient ChinaIt means they're the 'new' versions of those
>>214419640Chinese people do not invent things. They steal and make things incredibly cheap.
>>214419640Ever heard of irony? Retard nigger. Then again you are Italian, who are not known for thinking outside the box
>>214419899They aren't thoughever >High speed rail Germany (first ever experiment that can be classified as high speed by today's standards, 1903) Japan (first discussed in the 30s, first world speed record in 1957, first commercial line inaugurated in 1964)(Btw China literally got it via technology transfer by Japanese and Western companies; Japan developed its own high speed rail technology indigenously) >E-commerceUK (1979)USA (1995)>Bike sharingNetherlands (1960s)Denmark (1990s)>Mobile paymentsFinland (via SMS, 1997)Japan (via NFC, 2004)Btw even QR codes which nowadays are used everywhere in China for that were invented in 1994 by a Japanese guy who decided to keep it open royalty-free for all humanity.

>>214423947Are you really implying it's untrue that it's a thing?
Wikipedia is basically fucking toast. When the internet was just filled with nerds from NA and Europe, people really wanted to create an objective wiki. But then all the thirdies got on and started making wikis in their own language and it's all editorialized garbage. They're propaganda platforms.
>>214424073I don't know, and I don't really care. Yeah they probably didn't independently invent any of those.All I know is that Wikipedia is full of terminally online tranny redditors who try to influence popular opinion in their way to push their agenda, and reddit absolutely hates chyna. Look up any transgender page, try to edit it yourself, then come back in 15 minutes and you'll see.
>>214419640i don't care what T`Chyna is up to
>>214419640You could do the same thing with the old inventions too.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Great_InventionsGunpowder>According to the Zhenyuan miaodao yaolüe, "Some have heated together sulfur, realgar and saltpeter with honey; smoke and flames result, so that their hands and faces have been burnt, and even the whole house where they were working burned down."[17]Basically an incendiary powder, almost all of their gunpowder uses were pyrotechnic. Greek fire existed 200 years prior to this. Compass> "A lodestone attracts a needle."[17] In the 2nd century BC, Chinese geomancers were experimenting with the magnetic properties of lodestone to make a "south-pointing spoon" for divination. When it is placed on a smooth bronze plate, the spoon would invariably rotate to a north–south axis.[18][19][20] While this has been shown to work, archaeologists have yet to discover an actual spoon made of magnetite in a Han tomb.[21]Apparently it was some sort of feng shui device, it's mostly speculative since no models of it have been found and never was put to any practical use. The first recorded use of a compass for navigation is Alexander Neckham's 'De naturis rerum'.Printing>The transition from wood type to movable metal type occurred in Korea during the Goryeo dynasty>The techniques for bronze casting, used at the time for making coins (as well as bells and statues) were adapted to making metal type. Unlike the metal punch system thought to be used by Gutenberg, the Koreans used a sand-casting method.>sand casting methodWhat? This is like bronze age tech. At best this made bronze stamps.Paper>The invention traditionally attributed to Cai Lun, recorded hundreds of years after it took place, is dated to 105 CE. The innovation is a type of paper made of mulberry and other bast fibres along with fishing nets, old rags, and hemp wastePretty much everywhere did this. It's also not as old as papyrus manufacturing, but equally as tedious.
