Aren’t these promotional Drone videos the purview of Yong Pen Suen, Senior Salesman: Drone Division?
The comments section underneath the article are even more hilarious. This comment was on point.

Not so fun for American soyjacks when the other side is the one with the bigger guns and the air supremacy, is it? Ukraine is winning! Yeah, right. LOL
Most of the wheat is usually sown in the Autumn and wintered over in the ground. Spring sowing is there to make up any projected shortfall. Spring grown wheat is usually weaker/inferior in protein, therefore not so suitable for bread baking so I'm told by wheat farmers in the provice just north of me.
Donbei Ren (NorthEastern Chinese, 东北人) was waiting for a revival of North East China for decades after the collapse of USSR. Now is pretty much their best chance in the next decade or two.
Heilongjiang gonna get the best economic opportunity in a very very long time. Russian export to China will be capped due to insufficient infrastructure but it will likely grow slowly overtime.
Seriously, most Chinese greatly underestimates Russian nationalists’ fear of losing Siberia to China.
Within the framework of reasonable estimate of what “stronger” can mean for Russia and for China respectively, Russia has far greater fear of what a stronger China can mean for Russia, than China has for what a stronger Russia can mean for China. A persistently stronger China can plausibly be unencumbered by great competition with the US. That would be a nightmare for Russia. A persistently stronger Russia can’t plausibly be unencumbered by great power competition on its western flank. Even if it is it isn’t near as strong relative to China as the reverse.

Such bravery, Hong Kong rioters didn't even last a day in Ukraine and flee before entering Ukraine.
All participants in the Ukrainian Territorial Defense Foreign Volunteer Corps, including those serving as medics, must sign a contract before entering Ukraine. The validity period of the military contract is set at the end of martial law in Ukraine - that is to say, the service period of the military personnel is until the end of the war, and there is no definite end point. In other words, once in, the two have no right to leave Ukraine as long as the war is not over.
This clause surprised them, and they were suddenly a little overwhelmed. "I didn't think we'd be home forever, and they'd put away our passports," Spencer said.
For the contract given by the Ukrainian side, Alice's first reaction was to resist even more strongly. She said: "I do volunteer work, not for high pay and good benefits, but at least for the right to be able to quit at any time."
Just when the two were anxious about the terms of the contract, several volunteer soldiers from other countries took the initiative to strike up a conversation. The excitement and eagerness of the people around them made the two Hong Kongers even more hesitant.
"They were probably a bunch of gun enthusiasts...like obsessed," Spencer described. The impatient attitude of the surrounding people in the face of the war made them, who were originally enthusiastic, think twice.
After some ideological struggle, the two decided to "restrain their horses" at the last moment and return to Poland on their own.
In their own words, they were full of enthusiasm from the beginning, but they seemed to change their minds in the end. Alice admitted frankly, "The gap in my heart is too big."
However, the two also felt that they did not expect to make a commitment to volunteer indefinitely, because they did not know when the war would end, nor did they know "whether their psychological quality can last for that long."
