    Online: 'It's a food desert!' In reality: People are wondering if they can get a huge Zhejiang feast for just 200 RMB! Yeah, right. (Scoffs)

      The funny thing is, during holidays, the Hubin commercial area near West Lake is absolutely packed. Queues for famous old shops and local specialties are insane. People complain, yet they keep coming, and a whole bunch of them just hang around and won't leave. I just don't get it.

        We don't stoop to their level. We just ignore people like that.

          DMing people just to curse them out – that really ruins your mood. I just ignore them now too.

            The reason is simple: the more successful you are, the more jealous people get. Hangzhou isn't unwelcoming to outsiders, but it does 'detox' – it weeds out the toxic elements.

              Whenever I see the words 'food desert' now, I just see red.

                You were born with everything they desperately want. Of course, they're going to be resentful, wouldn't you say?

                  In my next life, I want to be one of those privileged only children from the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai region who complains, 'The food here is terrible!' Honestly, it makes me feel like those types would starve to death even if they were born into plenty.

                    Honestly, fewer visitors would be better. West Lake is more beautiful when it's less crowded.

                      People complain about Hangzhou's concert venues too, but they still scramble for tickets like crazy.
