Russian-Chinese mixed marriages are not a rare thing at all, Russian girls and Chinese men seem to be a perfect match, well according to a Russian newspaper anyway. CRI (Russia) has posted an ad on one of the Russian newspapers, aptly named “The Russian newspaper”, encouraging marriages between Russian women and Chinese men, reports EDK.

The ad, published on May 25, caused quite a stir among netizens. It encourages mixed marriages between Russians and Chineses, and gives a formula that guarantees the success of the marriage.

This is the translation of the ad:

Perfect formula for mixed Russian-Chinese marriages Perfect couple= Chinese husband + Russian wife Chinese husband:

Takes care of the family

Has a healthy lifestyle

Takes care of household cares

Takes marriage seriously

Russian wife:

Independent

Gives husband freedom

Intelligent and pretty

Hard-working

It looks like the ad was inspired by a marriage story between a Chinese diaosi and Ukrainian goddess.

Many netizens are wondering if the ad is fake and perhaps is just a joke, but it is not. Here is a picture of the front of the newspaper:

The ad also gives CRI’s (Russia) Vkontakte (Russian Facebook) page info and pointed out that the publication was made with the support of the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China. I wonder if that’s true…
