Interesting story, translated. For the sake of brevity I left out the first part (a different story about the evac)

(Evacuation of US citizens from Wuhan)

The United States withdrew overseas Chinese, and the State Department sent a Boeing 747-400 cargo plane, which was ridiculed by some Chinese media and netizens. They mocked the US government for being stingy and used the cargo plane to evacuate overseas Chinese. He also said that if the Chinese government evacuated the Chinese, it would definitely be the best plane and the most delicious hot meals. The Chinese despise the American evacuation.

But recently, the truth of the cargo plane was revealed online: The US State Department chose the cargo plane in order to send urgently needed anti-epidemic materials to doctors and citizens in Wuhan, and passenger planes could not load a large amount of materials. The Boeing 747 400 took off in Chicago with a full container. The supplies cost 2.81 million yuan, including medical protective clothing, medical masks and medical gloves. In order to carry more cargo, the charter plane departed with less fuel, and refueled at Incheon Airport in South Korea on the way before flying to China.

The Chinese side approved the US chartered charter flight to stay at Wuhan Tianhe Airport for a very short time. In addition, Wuhan Customs and quarantine stopped working. This charter flight was not allowed to unload in Wuhan. The US chartered plane had to land at Wuxi Airport. Then fly to Wuhan to evacuate.

There are no passenger kitchens on the chartered planes in the United States, and hot meals cannot be provided. American diasporas return to China for cold meals because the urgently needed supplies were sent to the affected areas in Wuhan.

The U.S. has never explained why sending cargo planes to evacuate overseas Chinese, but never expected that the withdrawal of cargo planes by overseas Chinese was greatly mocked by Chinese official media and netizens. What can Americans say? Only shrugged.

In the face of disaster, the nobility or despicability of the soul is manifested. .
