it's all to do with china trying to ditch the us doller and very little else.

Chinese people fired fireworks to celebrate its closure. People also suggested to open a Chinese hot pot restaurant at this place, and some suggested to build a public toilet here. Interesting to see the US and its system are no longer attractive to Chinese.

20 million Chinese watch the closure of U.S. Chengdu consulate online, and somebody fired fireworks to celebrate. U.S. spent decades to cultivate pro-U.S. sentiment among Chinese by deceiving and propaganda, then ruined it in just couple of years. Good job. congratulations!
