The video mentions the economic depression in Shanghai, with desolation outside the Bund and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. Pudong Airport is sparsely populated, and the Dongchuan Line has ceased operation. Many second-floor shops in prime commercial areas of Baoshan District are vacant, with numerous empty storefronts along a one-kilometer stretch. Office vacancy rates are high on Sichuan North Road, with many remaining unfinished. The foreign street has also become quiet, and restaurants that were once overcrowded now have no available seats.
