Why Westernized Chinese Dislike the West | Newsweek International | Newsweek.com

Why Westernized Chinese Dislike the West | Newsweek International | Newsweek.com: ". But people like Zhang were supposed to be different: he's what Chinese call a hai gui—'sea turtle'—referring to someone who has lived overseas. (The phrase is a pun on haiwai guilai, meaning 'returned from overseas.') Their numbers are growing by the tens of thousands every year, and as the sons and daughters of the elite, they have an outsize influence once they move back to China. In the West there's long been an assumption that this cohort would import Western values along with their iPods. They were envisioned as the bridge to a more open, liberal, Western-friendly China."

we just do not think the western way is better than us, and we have to find our own way out. Western country is not much better than us, and if we reproduce their way and their country, it will be a disaster for the whole world.
