Reminds me of myself 2 decades ago at the Pyramids near Cairo: I asked the taxi driver to take me back to my hotel because I felt it was really too hot for me outside the cab (sunny, around 125F). He then told me that I was like a "Japanese peasant", and, disappointed that a tourist would refuse to visit the pyramids, drove me back to my air conditioned hotel where I enjoyed watching CNN in my 68F curtain-closed room. So, yes, I can understand how the French react to the Chinese.
I read somewhere recently that China sent a few hundred Chinese police officers to Paris (part of a cultural exchange between China and France) in order to help the Chinese tourists in Paris, mostly those who have their wallet stolen by pickpockets. Reason: It seems that Paris police officers are as rude to the Chinese tourists as the latter are to their French hosts.
