"1.4 billion Chinese will never agree!" The United States treats Chinese pandas so much that it even has to apply for new pandas to stay in the United States. The US media has reported that a new pair of giant pandas will be ushered in as early as the end of this summer.
As China's national treasure, the giant panda has always been a symbol of the establishment of friendly relations with other countries, some countries have not applied for qualifications and have been begging the mainland for 16 years, and it has taken three prime ministers to get their wishes;
Why do pandas have such a strong influence, and if the rights were in your hands, which country would you lease them to?

It is a well-known fact that the Japanese people love giant pandas to the extreme, and since 1972, China gave two giant pandas to Japan, Lan Lan and Kangkang, for free, and the people's popularity of them has surpassed that of the President of the United States. In particular, Kaoka, who was born in Japan, is simply loved by the whole of Japan.
At Tokyo's Ueno Zoo, tens of thousands of people queued just to catch a glimpse of it, queuing for three hours and 10 seconds. After that, the zoo needs to watch Xiangxiang through the lottery, people began to line up at three o'clock in the morning, and a photographer even made an annual card in order to photograph the giant panda every day, from Xiangxiang to the public to the public to return to China, every day insisted on seeing it.
In the three years that Xiangxiang has been in Japan, it has created an economic value of 2.76 billion for Japan. In every area of Tokyo, almost every store has an element of giant pandas, making it a veritable "panda shopping district". During Xiang Xiang's birthday, the zoo also exhibits Xiang Xiang's feces, and Japanese tourists come to smell Xiang Xiang's feces.
At that time, a large number of bamboos bloomed and died in the habitat of giant pandas in Sichuan, China, which seriously affected the survival of giant pandas, and donations to save giant pandas were also set off around the world. The Japanese people showed their enthusiasm beyond borders in this event, and a large number of donations and letters of condolence came to China from Japan.
Japan can be said to have the largest number of giant pandas among all countries, and when Xiangxiang left Japan and returned to China, many Japanese people were heartbroken, saying that they could not survive and so on. However, in the past 30 years, there have been many tragedies of giant pandas. Lily and Zhenzhen, two pandas who came to Japan in 2011, unfortunately died when they gave birth, and Dandan, a giant panda born in Sichuan in 1995, was originally planned to be returned to China in 2020, but could not travel due to the new crown epidemic, and was found to have a heart attack in 2021, and on March 31 this year, Dandan suffered cardiac arrest due to the effects of heart disease, and died at the age of 28 (equivalent to more than 80 years old in humans).

It wasn't until I saw Malaysia raising pandas that I knew what doting was. Other giant pandas went abroad to work in the dark, and they came to Malaysia to be their ancestors. The central air conditioning is on 24 hours a day, and the dad usually holds him when he goes to work, and his feet do not touch the ground throughout the whole process. has been returning as a giant panda Nuannuan, except for white and black, and the buttocks are white and glowing, even Chinese netizens are very sighing: I have never seen such a white panda.
Nuan Nuan is born and sleeps with a special dad to provide sleep coaxing services, as well as bedtime massage. In terms of diet, the park has a special panda kitchen, and a special nutritionist has been hired for Nuan Nuan to match nutritionally balanced food, and cakes and fruits are cut into small pieces. The daddy was also afraid that the hard shell of the bamboo would hurt the panda's teeth, so he specially cut the bamboo skin into thin strips, and the daddy personally fed it to his mouth. So much so that after Nuan Nuan returned to China, he couldn't even peel the skin of bamboo shoots.
Since the giant panda came to Malaysia, it has properly lived as an ancestor, and even the Malayan tapir, a national treasure animal that was originally superior, can only be a little brother. During the epidemic, all the animals have lost significantly weight due to the sharp decline in the income of the park, and only the giant panda is still round. After Nuan Nuan returned to China, looking at its clear eyes, she knew how comfortable it was in childhood.

Compared with the treatment of giant pandas in Malaysia, the giant pandas in Thailand are simply miserable. In 2003, Lin Hui was loaned to Chiang Mai Zoo in Thailand for 10 years along with another male giant panda. After expiration, the lease in Thailand will be renewed for another 10 years, and it is expected to return to China on October 12, 2023. However, in 2019, the male giant panda Chuangchuang died of hypoxia due to chronic heart failure, and in 2023, before Lin Hui was about to return to China, he died on April 19.
Although there are people who are born, old, sick and die, for the death of giant pandas, the Chinese side needs to chase whether there is human negligence in the zoo. Once someone is at fault, then they must be held accountable according to the agreement, but in terms of Lin Hui's age, he is already equivalent to a human being in his seventies, an elderly man, and his death is not completely unexpected; when Lin Hui is unwell, Chiang Mai Zoo is also actively communicating with experts from the China Giant Panda Conservation Center, or because the emergency rescue is ineffective.
As for the death of the giant panda in Thailand, we are also very helpless. But the director of the Chiang Mai Zoo said that the Chiang Mai Zoo is ready to take care of a new batch of giant pandas, should the mainland lease them again?

The Dutch people's love for giant pandas can be said to have gone through several generations of efforts: as the head of the Netherlands, 16 years of application, finally in 2015, using money tactics, to obtain the lease rights of Wu Wen and Xingya, two giant pandas, with an additional rent of about 7.31 million yuan per year. In order to make the giant pandas who come to China feel at home, they did not hesitate to spend 15 million yuan to hire Chinese architects to build a 9,000-square-meter panda pavilion for the pandas, with luxurious facilities, and even the building materials are imported from China.
Although the lease period is only 15 years, the Dutch are happy for this country, providing extremely high reception specifications for the two giant pandas, sending a special plane to China, and the giant pandas have not landed in the Dutch Prime Minister is already waiting for the pick-up. In order to let the giant pandas eat well, more than 20 bamboos were specially selected, for fear that they would not meet the taste of the giant pandas. The treatment of national rites, the palace-like residence, if Xingya and Wu Wen enjoy the treatment of the emperor here, then it can be described as the supreme enjoyment in Belgium.

Paradise Zoo in Belgium is one of the most famous zoos in the world, home to five Chinese giant pandas. How much the Belgian people love giant pandas, and it took ten years to apply for giant pandas before they got Xinghui and Haohao. But because of where the two giant pandas' residences were built, it has caused fierce battles between the people of the north and south of the local area.
The people of the two places often quarrel over where the giant pandas should stay, and various debates, media theories, and civil protests are staged in turn, which shows the love of the Belgian people for pandas. In the end, the pair of giant pandas, which caused national conflicts in Belgium, finally settled in a special Chinese-style building built for them by investing nearly 10 million euros in the zoo.

At present, who is the hottest female star in South Korea, it is definitely Princess Fu Baofu. In 2020, giant pandas Aibao and Lebao in South Korea were naturally conceived and gave birth to Fubao, and Fubao also occupied South Korea's MBC news by himself, and appeared on the hot search of Korean media. South Korean netizens love Fu Bao, and there are even posts of exchanging South Korean presidents for Fu Bao, and 99% of South Koreans agree to elect Fu Bao as the president of South Korea.
Fubao, who was born with heat and blessing, has the favor of two grandfathers in South Korea, and his every move is affecting the hearts of the people. However, the date of Fubao's return to China has come recently, and the South Korean people spontaneously petitioned at the Blue House to keep Fubao.

What the giant panda Yaya suffered in the United States has been obvious to everyone since she returned home. At first, the Memphis Zoo was questioned by animal protection groups for mistreating giant pandas, accusing the Memphis Zoo of not providing Yaya with enough fresh and insufficient bamboo, failing to treat Yaya's skin diseases in a timely manner, and not giving Yaya enough free time. In fact, the Memphis Zoo's poor care of Yaya and Lele has already appeared in 12 or even 10 years.
Yaya returned to China, and the anger of the Chinese people against the Memphis Zoo only increased, and in 2022, the Memphis Zoo Life Association returned the giant pandas to China as scheduled, but Lele unfortunately passed away at the beginning of the year. That's why some people are concerned about Yaya's health, and it has aggravated the suspicion that the Memphis Zoo has "abused" giant pandas. When Yaya returned to China, she found that the national treasure animals of the mainland had been left with skin and bones, and her eyes were gloomy, and the situation was miserable.
Many people are angry and condemn the behavior of the American zoo, if you don't love it, don't hurt it, if you just use it as a cash cow, then there will be no more giant pandas in the United States. What do you think of the proposal that the United States is currently actively pursuing that Yaya hopes to send new pandas when she returns home?
