I believe there are still lots of items not mentioned here. How about acupuncture, ancient medicine, cooking methods, irrigating techniques, water supply or distribution to households as in Yunan province, the joints without using nails, arts with black & white colors, books, library collections of ancients knowledge, arts of wars, words of wisdoms, first Bank started in P. Yau , roads for chariots, lamp - lantern, football, etc......... For better world

我相信这里还有很多未被提及的发明。比如针灸、古代医学、烹饪方法、灌溉技术、云南的供水或家庭用水分配、不用钉子的榫卯结构、水墨艺术、书籍、古代知识的图书馆收藏、孙子兵法、智慧箴言、在平遥开设的第一家银行、驰道、灯-灯笼、足球等等......为了更美好的世界。

How about the invention of chopstick to eat their food, so they would not have to eat their foods with their finger for better hygiene to prevent sickness by their Yellow Emperor.

还有用于进食而发明的筷子，这样他们就不必用手指吃饭以更好地预防疾病，这是由黄帝发明的。

@jivvyjack7723
The Chinese invented the pistol with iron ball bullets, the iron handcuffs with lock and key, similar in use as the modern one, the "backpack" design on which modern back-packs are still based on, the sanitary pads, which all modern sanitary pads were based until they got rid of the loops and used glue instead, the toilet paper, the toothbrush and the toothpaste, the use of paper currency to represent a value, the devices to measure and track time, the calendar which was invented 4000 years ago and it's still in common use today, proving the extraordinary accuracy of its ancient knowledge of heavens.

中国人发明了带有铁丸子弹的手枪、与现代手铐使用方式相似的带锁和钥匙的铁手铐，现代背包所基于的“背包”设计，卫生巾（所有现代卫生巾都基于这种设计，直到它们去掉环扣改用胶水），还有卫生纸、牙刷和牙膏，使用纸币代表价值，测量和追踪时间的设备，4000年前发明的日历至今仍在使用，这证明了其古代天文知识的非凡准确性。

Dr Joseph Needham's 24 volumes research into the great inventions of China is a worthwhile refer.

约瑟夫·尼达姆博士关于中国伟大发明的24卷研究值得参考

@elielee7364
Chinese also invented toothbrush, hand watch, sun glasses, folk and knife, toilet paper, cosmetics, etc while discovering and documenting the worlds oldest natural medicine system (TCM).

中国人还发明了牙刷、手表、太阳镜、叉子和刀、卫生纸、化妆品等，同时发现并记录了世界上最古老的天然医学系统（中医）。

@Steve-pq7cb
Chinese acupuncture is so ahead of time, it's still a mystery even today. And Chinese medicine is such a unique and complete system, it's still very effective and powerful today.

中国的针灸如此超前，至今仍是一个谜。中医是一个独特而完整的系统，至今仍然非常有效和强大。

China continues to rock our world with genius innovation and inventions!

中国继续以其天才的创新和发明震撼我们的世界！

@somsatxayalat
The banking system of printed paper money, too. That's really a marvelous invention and still use all over the world these day. China already use printed paper money and banking many centuries ago when Marco Polo visit China. Marco was very amazed to how the Chinese traded on the street with just a piece of paper, but not actual goods to goods or goods to man powers as in the West.

还有印刷纸币的银行系统。这真是一个了不起的发明，至今仍在全世界使用。中国在马可·波罗访问中国时就已经使用印刷纸币和银行系统了。马可对中国人如何只用一张纸而不是像西方那样用实物交换或实物换人力在街上交易感到非常惊讶。

@huangec
No surprise that they are still the most advanced in the world in payment systems today, some 800 years later.

毫不奇怪，800年后，他们仍然有世界上最先进的支付系统。

China also invented Korean people who claim to be origin of everything including Chinese character as well as Italian pizza

中国还发明了韩国人（他们声称自己是包括汉字和意大利披萨在内的一切的起源）。

@liong5552
Please. China is a unity of tribes, community, races and tradition within mainland region. No different from unity of states forming United States of America. Korea is their own race even when at some point of history she is China's tribute nation. Korea in majority of its history have remain independent. Although many of Korea's culture, cuisine and tradition is learnt and borrow (originated) from China (being the more advanced society in the past). That doesn't mean Korea cannot develop things of their own. If a united China can have its unique identity for each province why Korea must be seen as a by product of China? People are to use the gained knowledge (as base reference) to impoverish a better suited version for their own. To claim China invented Korean people is claiming Africa owns the world (its widely recognised by historian that human origin start from Africa).

别这样。中国是大陆地区部落、社区、种族和传统的统一体，与组成美利坚合众国的各州统一体没有区别。韩国是独立的种族，即使在某些历史时期她是中国的朝贡国，韩国在大部分历史中也保持了独立。尽管韩国的许多文化、美食和传统是从中国学习或借鉴的（中国在过去是更先进的社会），这并不意味着韩国不能发展自己的东西。如果一个统一的中国可以为其每个省份拥有独特的身份，为什么韩国必须被视为中国的副产品？人们应该利用获得的知识（作为基础参考）来发展更适合自己的版本。声称中国发明了韩国人，就像声称非洲拥有世界一样（历史学家广泛认为人类起源于非洲）。

@winglaileung
Chinese Books in volumes in woods, bamboos and papers with printing are the real treasures.

中国的木刻、竹简和纸质印刷书籍是真正的宝藏。

@irenelau-nj8jr
abacus (ancient computer); paper currency instead of barter trade or heavy silver coins being used..... and Now " deepseek"....

算盘（古代计算机），纸币取代了以物易物或沉重的银币......现在还有“deepseek”......

@winglaileung
Song ancient clock for measuring the time can be traced back to the earliest observation of heaven in ancient 陶寺 before xia Dynasty (夏朝)。

宋代用于测量时间的古代钟表可以追溯到夏朝之前古代陶寺对天象的最早观测。

Transfer of water by big wheels can now be seen along the Yellow River since ancient times.

自古以来，黄河沿岸就可以看到用大水车输送水的景象。

@winglaileung
The wheels system can be vividly seen in the Museum of the first Emporer of the Qin Dynasty in xian, prior to the Han Dynasty.

在西安的秦始皇博物馆中可以清晰地看到汉朝之前的轮子系统。

@cafemolido5459
You left out the "Chop Sticks."

你漏掉了“筷子”。

@foodparadise5792
Also fork, I always thought fork was a western invention but not.

还有叉子，我一直以为叉子是西方的发明，但事实并非如此。

China's invention of paper money in the 7th century is very important to revolutionize trading and finance.

中国在7世纪发明的纸币对贸易和金融的革命非常重要。

The 1st binary system was expressed in Baqua. with long solid horizontal bar stand for 1 (or Yang) and 2 short bars as 0 (or Yin). The bars were arranged in 3 rows in combination 2^3 = 8

第一个二进制系统是用八卦表示的。长实线代表1（或阳），两条短线代表0（或阴），这些线条排列成三行，组合为2^3=8。

@newhorizons898
The long bar is positive bar, the two short bar is negative bar is negative, and together with zero forms a ternary system. The tai chi symbol represents a ternary system: yin (negative), 0, yang(positive).

长线是正线，两条短线是负线，与零一起形成一个三元系统。太极符号代表一个三元系统：阴（负）、0、阳（正）。

@winglaileung
The invention of needles and threads, knitting of silk threads as well as the use of ropes are very significant next to the agriculture, handmade porcelain and large copper containers.

针线的发明、丝线的编织以及绳索的使用在农业、手工陶器和大型铜容器之外也非常重要。

There is a book written in the 1990s, called " Science and Technology in Ancient China". There are dozens of discoveries and inventions listed alphabetically, from ancient China. I don't know if it's still available. Author is Sir Joseph Needham.

有一本写于1990年代的书，名为《中国古代的科学技术》。书中按字母顺序列出了中国古代的几十项发现和发明。我不知道这本书是否还在出版，作者是李约瑟爵士。

@fairryalp.-de5qb
Here are few more I've known and some mentions in this video too.
��Semi-Auto weapon. They built a crossbow with a box can hold tens or hundred arrows, and it can shoot an arrow every 1-2 seconds.
�� Missiles, they can shoot HUGE & LONG arrow, or hundreds of arrows to much greater distance.
�� Hot-air balloon, Chinese people still practice the Lantern Festival by sending hundreds home made lanterns in the sky.
��KITE, they tied a person to the kite to spy or monitor the movement of the energy. It's similar to DRONE these days
�� FIREWORK, they used as communication by shooting firework into the sky using different color, sequence etc. Similar to American Indian smoke signals, military communicated using mirrors, light etc.
��Power-Hammer, similar to the power hammer black smith using these days. China Old ancient lower Hammer (trip Hammer) to pound rice. The original Trip Hammer still exist these days. I don't remember either Pakistan or Afghanistan, they still have the original rice mill built around 1 thousand years ago. Yes, it's still working and people still using it.
�� Find video about the DAI ethic group, you will see they still making the same paper they invented thousand of years ago.
��Astronomy, acupuncture, chi, medicine so many things. I think China discovered oil

这里还有一些我知道的以及视频中提到的东西。
半自动武器。他们制造了一种可以装几十或几百支箭的弩，每1-2秒可以射出一支箭。
导弹，他们可以射出巨大且长的箭，或者数百支箭到更远的距离。
热气球，中国人仍然通过放飞数百个自制灯笼来庆祝元宵节。
风筝，他们把一个人绑在风筝上进行侦察或监视能量运动，这类似于今天的无人机。
烟花，他们通过向天空发射不同颜色和顺序的烟花来进行通信，类似于美洲印第安人的烟雾信号，军队使用镜子、光等进行通信。
动力锤，类似于今天铁匠使用的动力锤。中国古代的下锤（踏锤）用来捣米，原始的踏锤至今仍然存在。我不记得是巴基斯坦还是阿富汗，他们仍然保留着大约一千年前建造的原始碾米机。是的，它仍然在工作，人们仍然在使用它。
找关于傣族的视频，你会看到他们仍然在制作几千年前发明的纸。
还有天文学、针灸、气功、医学等等。我认为中国发现了石油。

@alykkw
According to Chinese history, the compass was first created by the officers of the Yellow Emperor during the war with Chiyou because their army needed to fight in heavy fog situation. This is supposed to happen sometime around 3000 B.C.
Wheelbarrows and seed drills were manufactured by foundries of the Imperial government since the Han dynasty. Of course, the prerequisite of these were the popular use of steel in ancient China since the Han Dynasty.

根据中国历史，指南针最早是由黄帝的官员在与蚩尤的战争中发明的，因为他们的军队需要在浓雾中作战，这大约发生在公元前3000年左右。
独轮车和播种机自汉朝以来由皇家政府的铸造厂制造。当然，这些的前提是自汉朝以来钢铁在中国的广泛使用。

@KC-io2rg
Wow this is amazing and even more so since that I did not know half of these even though I am a history buff.

哇，这太神奇了，尤其是我作为一个历史爱好者竟然有一半都不知道。

@Jenji9vl
If not for opium and foreign intervention, China would not have to go through the Cultural Revolution which resulted in substantial losses, not just in terms of tangibles, but intangibles like morals and ethics. China would probably become the world's most respected, civilised and economically superior country.

如果没有鸦片和外国干涉，中国就不会经历“WG”，而“WG”所造成的巨大损失，不仅是有形资产的损失，还有道德伦理等无形资产的损失。中国可能会成为世界上最受尊敬、最文明、经济最优越的国家。

@adamiskandar5107
What happened happens and there is no need for regret, only lessons to learn. As long as you have the moral and philosophical foundation to sustain growth as a civilization, it can continue to prosper and advance. Let's not all human progress be destroyed by the greed of a few who maintain their powers through wars and bullying.

发生的事已经发生，无需后悔，只需吸取教训。只要你有道德和哲学基础来维持文明的成长，它就能继续繁荣和进步。不要让人类的进步被少数通过战争和欺凌维持权力的人的贪婪所摧毁。

@CameronVine-wp8fl
Having a seriously difficult time believing the Chinese invented the wheelbarrow only 2000 years ago. Wheelbarrow is probably as old as the wheel. Also, Terra cotta army was more a work of art than an invention.

很难相信中国人仅在2000年前发明了手推车，手推车的历史可能和轮子一样古老。此外，兵马俑更像是一件艺术品而非发明。

@rileex
How about the torpedo, it was invented during the peak of Ming Dynasty navigation and military technology

鱼雷呢？它是在明朝航海和军事技术巅峰时期发明的。

@watchthemouth5235
more inventions I saw used in warfares, ie land mines, water mines, hot air balloons loaded with gun powder then shot with burning arrows to cause explosions when the balloons reach enemy territory, cannon balls, catapult, etc. Then there is candle, many more.

我还看到更多用于战争的发明，比如地雷、水雷、装满火药的热气球，然后用燃烧的箭射向气球，使其在到达敌方领土时爆炸，还有炮弹、投石机等。此外还有蜡烛等许多发明。

@asianthor
Several Chinese inventions that were not mentioned are; forks, high degree ovens for smelting, toilet paper, chrome plating for metals, invented the restaurant, invented soccer, and if I'm correct embalming fluid.

一些未被提及的中国发明包括：叉子、用于冶炼的高温炉、卫生纸、金属镀铬、发明了餐厅、发明了足球，如果我没记错的话，还有防腐液。

@ericb.4358
That's a big and heavy (over 2 pounds!) insulated air mattress. Suitable for car camping or e-bike camping but not backpacking.

那是一个又大又重（超过2磅！）的绝缘充气床垫，适合汽车露营或电动自行车露营，但不适合背包旅行。

@rc-guy2672
It is worth noting that many/most of these innovations are left out of western history books.

值得注意的是许多/大多数这些创新都被西方历史书忽略了。

The discovery of Oracle-Han language in one-sound-one-word system describes vividly in 0-I under the Tao philosophy.

甲骨文-汉字的发现，以“一音一字”系统在道哲学下的0-I中生动地描述。

@wurzelfix
Hey, the Chinese also invented toilet paper! In the imperial palace, a slave was only concerned with the correct distribution and supplies. And the wheelbarrow may ALSO have been invented in China - but at the same time much earlier in ancient Serbia, and in the Danube region.

嘿，中国人还发明了卫生纸！在皇宫里，奴隶只负责正确的分发和供应。手推车可能也在中国发明过——但同时更早的时候在古塞尔维亚和多瑙河地区也有发明。

@mantovanisantiago8586
If the Chinese were great inventers & mathematicians then why do so many scholars from china traveled to Bharat to seek it's profound knowledge in science, maths etc for 2000 years. Maybe Bharat only thought the Chinese how to pluck their pubic hair for 2,000 years that's why they claim to invent everything under the sun in ancient times.

如果中国人是伟大的发明家和数学家，那为什么这么多中国学者前往印度寻求科学、数学等方面的深刻知识长达2000年？也许印度只教了中国人如何拔阴毛2000年，所以他们才声称在古代发明了所有东西。
