Today, I’m gonna share you something popular on the internet in China. Here is an awesome and popular-spread video about a farmer’s DIY airplane. And it has a very cool name among Chinese people: "Shanzhai huaxiangji".

It’s a funny story and let me tell you here:

Shanzhai, aka 山寨 in Chinese, means "little mountain village"; "Huaxiangji", aka 滑翔机 in Chinese, means "glider". I use airplane here just to let you know that’s something flying on the air ;)

many people call it "Shanzhai Ji" (Ji, aka 机, means machine in Chinese, here means cell phone) and then the name is widespread in China.
