Even in France if you organize a big event and if you don't have all the authorizations, I think that the Police will come faster than in China in order to stop you. legrinch, thanks for this link, but I’ve already read it.

Killy, I think that in this case, Chinese authorities weren’t really wrong. Even in France if you organize a big event and if you don’t have all the authorizations, I think that the Police will come faster than in China in order to stop you.

For example give bigger red envellope to the right person... or at least lot of alcohol to the police when they come.But, it is still an evidence of how totalitarian China is.... and that is sad....

What an asshole !

He was doing a kind of speech thanking (his team?) the French Consulate and advertising for the restaurant &#34;<em>Le Meridien</em>&#34;!<br />Indeed, I think that this guy's never been to a rock concert... We don't expect such kinda blabla and ads!!!<br />Moreover, about this concert, it was typically French-Shanghainese to organize it within the <em>Shanghai Concert Hall</em>: no standing area, only some seats!!! <img src="/wp-content/plugins/editormonkey/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/angry_smile.gif" alt="" /> Is that an adequate way to enjoy a rock n' roll concert??? Ooops... I'm so selfish, I've totally forgotten that it was an event for upper-class French expat who wanna listen to Am&#233;lie Poulain's OST... Thanks hunvreus for your additional info

He is supposed to be &#34;Attach&#233; de coop&#233;ration et d&#8217;action culturelle&#34;, or if you prefer &#34;Official jerk in charge of wasting French funds pretending to participate to a cultural life in Shanghai&#34;.It seems that they did not get all the authorizations (did they get any ?) thus making the reaction from the Chinese authorities totally understandable.I just don't get how those people can get enough credit to launch such an event and at the same time&#160; show so little knowledge about its organization: spending 6 days a week getting drunk on champagne at fancy parties does not make you an organizer, it just make you fatter... And remember that French taxes sponsor this fat. The fat guy is actually a member of the French consulate: Claude Hudelot.
