Some people, just to make money, actually fabricated fake news about giant pandas.优子: Really? Pandas are so cute, why would they make up stories about them?刘娜: They take advantage of people's love for pandas, exaggerating or even making up videos of pandas being abused to attract attention and donations.优子: That's awful! I even saw such videos on Douyin before and was really worried about the pandas.刘娜: That's why we must learn to distinguish between real and fake news, and not blindly believe rumors. As the Chinese saying goes: 'What you see with your eyes is real, what you hear is false.'优子: Yes, I’ll be more careful in the future and tell my friends not to easily believe such rumors.
