Chinese migrant workers have seized museums in the Northern capital. Residents of the Celestial Empire come to the city on the Neva supposedly to study, and they themselves conduct excursions for their own compatriots. So they deprive local guides of work, and the city budget - money. Tatiana Grigoryants, the correspondent of Vesti FM, will tell you about how the City of Petrov has become a tourist zone of China.

Tsarskoe Selo, Catherine Palace, high season: there is no overcrowding at the entrance to the museum ensemble. The foreigners lined up around their guides like kindergarten children. They are waiting for further commands. Suddenly a young Chinese man raises a flag and heads towards the entrance. Tourists from the PRC are advancing behind him in a slender chain. Smiling, shouting, taking pictures of everything. A middle-aged woman aims the lens at the guide … And, to her surprise, the young guide begins to indignantly ask him not to take pictures! "Nothing strange - the FMS will not have any evidence against him," notes Victor Ulyanenko, Russian guide-sinologist. This is not the first year that a similar picture has been observed. And not only in the vastness of the Catherine Garden.

“Literally the day before yesterday, one of these illegal immigrants, who had already been caught, was seen wearing a balaclava, can you imagine? ! , - Ulyanenko is indignant.

Chinese illegal immigrants are a real headache for St. Petersburg guides who work with tourists in the Middle Kingdom. True, they are not completely illegal - in Russia they are sometimes on completely legal grounds. But they work with tourists illegally, says the chairman of the Association of Guide-Translators Victoria Bargacheva.

“For example, a Chinese person decided to open a travel company. II , - gives the example of Bargachev.

According to some reports, the Chinese rank first in terms of the number of foreign tourists in St. Petersburg. And by the number of illegal guides - too. It is impossible not to notice them, says Victoria Bargacheva: There are not so many professional Sinologists in St. Petersburg - about 120 people, everyone knows each other in one way or another. Only two Chinese citizens have received Russian citizenship and have an official work permit. Which, by the way, is not so easy even for a Petersburger.

"You must first undergo specialized training at the East Faculty, then take specialized courses for the preparation of a guide-interpreter, after which the applicant must listen and take a course of lectures in museums of federal and city subordination," Bargacheva enumerates.

This complex system was once invented to prevent anyone from entering the tourist market of the Northern capital. But there are still a lot of illegal immigrants. Each guide must have a license, without which you cannot get a job. The question arises: if they are not allowed into the museum without it, how do they get inside? And even the groups are being held? The answer is simple, says Victoria Bargacheva"They find a person for a little money who works as a" license ", that is, he just takes the group to the museum and walks side by side."

Museums of these "Chinese dummies", as the St. Petersburg guides call them, do not see. Or they pretend not to see. In any case, they categorically refuse to talk about them.

“Oh, no, please, I can’t talk about Chinese illegal students now… I don’t have time to do this now… Sorry, for God's sake,” the Hermitage representative stammered.

Some attribute this phenomenon to the lack of local guides. But this is an absolute myth, says Victoria Bargacheva … St. Petersburg's young Sinologists simply have no chance of getting into the market - all the seats are occupied by "Chinese dummies."

"We graduated this year 20 people who meet all the requirements. Of these 20 people have found work at the moment, only 6. Unfortunately, our profession is on the verge of extinction," - complains Bargacheva.

In the same China, notes Victor Ulyanenko, foreign guides are strictly prohibited.

"There, a foreigner cannot work as a guide. It is prohibited by law. If he tries to do this, he will be immediately detained. The first time he is issued a very large fine - in the region of 5,000 yuan (this is about a thousand dollars). will be deported, "Ulyanenko assures.

We are also deported. Although this is rather the exception than the rule. The judge may well rule that the work of the Chinese for monetary reward has not been proven, and the student is dismissed. And he again runs with a flag in front of the next tour group. But the most offensive is not even this, he says Victor Ulyanenko.

“When a Chinese tourist who comes to Russia goes with this Chinese illegal, he gets a very large portion of anti-Russian and anti-Russian agitation. I myself have heard this many times, many of my colleagues have witnessed it. Just imagine: a Chinese group enters the Hermitage. C What does this same Chinese guest worker begin his speech? He says: “Here is the rich collection of the Hermitage Museum. Why is she so rich? Because Russia has been an aggressive state all its life, almost all the exhibits here are stolen, says Ulyanenko.

The tourist gasps, gasps and leaves Russia, overwhelmed with fake impressions that the "Chinese dummy" gave him.

Annotation:

The former governor of Primorsky Krai, Yevgeny Nazdratenko, said in a television program: "I understand why the Chinese are proving that Primorye is their territory, but I don't understand why Russian historians are proving the same to me."

Can we say that thanks to these historians our Siberian and Far Eastern lands are theoretically prepared for surrender to the Chinese?

Part 1. The White Race and China: What can be said about the racial and ethnicity of the peoples who created Siberian civilizations? Where are the hundreds of mummies of white people in the north of China? Who are Dinlins? Which people were the indigenous people of Japan?

Part 2. Stone evidence: Why are the Chinese pyramids hushed up? What can the Great Wall of China tell us about? What kind of Kitay-gorod is located in the center of Moscow? How was technology invented in China without experienced science?

Part 3. Ancient Rome = Ancient China: Can we say that the already falsified European history, slightly covered by Asian exoticism, “moved” to China without a time shift? How do these historical processes affect our modernity?
