Chinese President Xi Jinping, also General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, visited Yingxiu Town, Wenchuan County in southwest China's Sichuan Province on Monday, 10 years after an 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck the area. Xi wished a local restaurant owner a booming business.

Wholesome. Xi asked the guy what his annual income was. Imagine a potus doing that.

The drone footage at 2:50 is really interesting. I assume that's all new construction after the earthquake. It looks kinda like when a dense suburb makes one of those mini walkable shopping districts with some housing units. Except the chinese version looks like more housing and alleys instead of streets.
