A Roundup: Americans, Damn, the Chinese Really Pulled It Off

Lin Ce was an uploader who spent all day watching military videos on his phone.

Then one day, he came across a video from years ago in which Americans disparaged aircraft carriers.

Aircraft carriers were floating iron coffins: expensive and useless.

Then an app called Glorious China appeared on his phone.

From then on, every video he watched was projected onto the sky screens of dynasties throughout history.

So he laid out the history of American deception for the ancients:

America said: Aircraft carriers are useless.

We believed them, then turned around and built aircraft carriers.

While America's carriers were still laid up, ours were rolling off the production line one after another.

America said: China can't build stealth aircraft.

We believed them, and the J-20 made its maiden flight right in front of their defense secretary that very day.

America said: It would take ten thousand years to develop a nuclear submarine.

We believed them, and launched one in just twelve years.

Ying Zheng: Deceiving the enemy state, brilliant!

Li Shimin: Subdue the enemy without fighting.

Zhu Di: Those Americans are full of dirty tricks!

General Peng: Damn, that feels good!

Everything America told us to fool us,

we took at face value.

And we made every single thing happen.
