The word “shanzhai” originally means “mountain village”,but it means“copy”in Chinese now.
I started to research this topic and found a whole new shanzhai world.There are shanzhai products(产品) and online games,even shanzhai culture.It is so popular that some people say to each other “have you shanzhaied today”?Like it or not,shanzhai has become part of our life in China.
I even met a famous engineer recently who has just had his shanzhai mobile phone.He was so proud of it and would not stop talking about all the functions while showing off the look of his phone.I could hardly see the back cover as he had stuck fake logos(假冒标记)“iPhone”,“No-kia”&“LG”on it.
