Is this a New Planet?

I feel extremely sad. I kind of dislike other countries talking about what my country should or should not do. It feels like other people commenting on my family affairs and all I want to shout back to them is “Shut up. It’s not your business.”
China is so much more than a nation to me. Of course we need criticism from other countries; of course we have made a lot of mistakes; of course there are countless things we need to improve. But it’s just that “家家有本难念的经”, and we have ours. But we’ll get better. I have confidence.
