On October 8, Global Times posted a video on Bilibili reviewing the "China connections" of several Nobel laureates, placing "Nobel Prize call answered by a Chinese student" at the top of the title and saying that the student "personally sent the adviser's phone number to the Nobel Committee," drawing teasing in comments and bullet screens.

For several consecutive days, the US Embassy in China has asked the Chinese side to provide updates on the search and rescue efforts for the Jilong mudslide, the identities of the victims, the situation of foreign nationals, and entry-exit records at the port. A Global Times article said this was unsettling, and the Chinese side also claimed that the port had been severely damaged and records could not be provided. BBC reported that electronic records in Nepal show that within less than ten minutes after the mudslide occurred, the registration details of people who had handled business there could be checked.
