Short Videos: Subject Three Goes Viral, and Li Hongzhang Is Stunned

The tacky folk dance with the hand-waving moves known as Ke Mu San has taken the world by storm. People in the UK and Russia are imitating it and competing to see who can dance it best.

Some people keep posting photos of Li Hongzhang and asking, "Have you seen this?"

It started as a joke among internet users. Who knew that a short-video app would suddenly descend upon every dynasty throughout history and every corner of the world?

When Li Hongzhang took a look at the comments, he was utterly dumbfounded.

In the 21st century, to resist the cultural invasion from the East, the great powers opened their eyes to the world and launched a sweeping movement to learn Chinese culture. They fell completely in love with Ke Mu San?

There were also videos showcasing China's great national projects, the Three Gorges Dam, high-speed trains, and the national power grid; videos reviewing the wars China fought after its founding, China's Olympic history, the ten most chaotic cities in Europe and America, and China's most iconic diplomatic moments...

Li Hongzhang wept bitterly, Zuo Zongtang sang drunkenly. The great powers were us all along?!

The heroes who died on the eve of the country's founding and the modern athletes who strove for the Olympics were all moved to tears...

MacArthur: My God! Impossible! How could my mighty America lose to that dirt-poor army!

Nehru of the Ganges trembled: New Delhi... was born just like that?
