That name is not shown on their passport. Just like mine, Andrew Jin, haha, you cannot find Andrew Jin through any searching method. Only I know my English name.

Your English name isn't Andrew?

My English name is Andrew. But our English name is not official name, I can change it everyday, . My English teacher first gave me the name Jimmy, I thought it was too Micky Mouse sort of name.
Since A in Andrew has a similar shape as my family name金, all like a pyramid, so I chose Andrew. When I learned German, I changed it to the German version, after that, changed back to Andrew.

Experienced this first hand 5 days ago.

A number of friends from HK & Shanghai had come for a family function.

I sent the cars to the hotels to pick them up- all the drivers called back to say there was no one by the names I gave them in the hotel.

All guests had checked in with the names on their passports ! .. It took some calls to sort it out.

Really like a palace, with 160 yuan u can watch 5 times of 3D IMAX Avengers 2 in Wuhan, the same luxury. Once I watched that IMAX Hobbit2 in Shanghai, at that oldest cinema of Shanghai, I spent 90yuan without coupon, too pricy for me, although a small piece of cake compared to salary of Shanghai. When I was studying in Shanghai, I got quite a good salary from my mentor, and I only spent 30% of my salary for all my living expenses, including Starbucks everyday. Miss that salary.

If u introduce yourself using English names instead of Chinese in mainland China, they will look down upon you. I only use English name with my friends from abroad, cause I don't think they can pronounce my Chinese name correctly.

Yes it is good.
I like the smaller rooms, from 8-seat VIP rooms that you can rent the whole for party,
to 56-seat medium ones (28 twin-seats) like this.

I just check, IMAX for the movie you mentioned in IFC is 75yuan if book it through Wechat. Why not? Cause YOU ARE A RICH BANKER! U should rent a VIP room for us all!

Already watched it yesterday.

Why? Chinese policemen are generally week and don't know how to use guns. I dare to take any photo except in front of a military camp.

You are taking photos of railway stations, malls etc. Could be a breach of security. hence police should ask why are you taking photos.
