On the Third Ring Road in Beijing, my Amap app counts down the red light to the second. Three seconds before green, it nudges me to lift the handbrake. At the toll gate, the ETC sensor beeps, the barrier rises, and I’m already gliding into the ramp. For someone who has been driving in China…
It’s 11 PM at Shanghai Pudong International Airport. A traveler fresh off a long-haul flight stands at the maglev station, phone in hand, staring at an Alipay registration screen.

1:00 AM. Beijing Capital Airport, Terminal 3. You drag your suitcase through customs, pull out your phone, and do what you’d do anywhere else — open Uber. The location pin drifts for a second, then stops. The map is blank. No cars. No prices. Nothing. You refresh. Same result. Then it hits you. That Reddit…
