Controversy Surrounds Video Blogger’s Claim of Japanese Tourists Being Stopped from Taking Photos at the Old Summer Palace

A recent video posted by a popular video blogger has sparked controversy online, with many questioning the authenticity of the content. The video, which appears to show Japanese tourists being stopped from taking photos at the Old Summer Palace, has been met with skepticism by some netizens, who have accused the blogger of exaggerating and “stealing traffic” for the sake of views.

The blogger, who has been actively posting videos since the beginning of the year, has gained a significant following on social media platforms. With over 300,000 fans on a short video platform, the blogger has seen a significant increase in followers over the past three months, with over 80,000 new fans added during this time.

According to reports, the blogger had collaborated with another popular short video blogger, “An Feng, the Strongest Psychological Quality in the Universe”, on several videos in early September. An Feng, who has nearly 330,000 fans on a short video platform, revealed that he had known the blogger before, but had only met once to shoot a short video together.

An investigation by Red Star News found that the Old Summer Palace Ruins Park has no restrictions on the nationality of tourists, and visitors are free to take photos as long as they abide by the park’s tour instructions and present valid documents to purchase tickets. This has raised further questions about the authenticity of the blogger’s video.

Red Star News reporters attempted to contact the blogger for comment, but were met with no response.
