通过理论资料和对中国中产阶级业余淘金者的采访，本文认为，在中国，中国淘金者的形象可能是对中国性和中国在日益相互联系的世界中角色的反思，而不是像西方那样作为第三世界刻板印象的载体。山寨的概念——经常与中国对外国消费品的滑稽、创新的模仿联系在一起——被用作一个关键的分析工具，并有助于突出“中国的独创性”、独立（从游戏运营商那里，在某种程度上也从父母那里）和批判（游戏）的主题。
Informed by a mix of theoretical sources and interviews with middle-class Chinese amateur gold farmers, this article argues that within China, the figure of the Chinese gold farmer might function as focus for reflection on Chineseness and China’s role in an increasingly interconnected world, rather than as a carrier of third-world stereotype as it tends to do in the West. The concept of shanzhai—often associated with sometimes comical, sometimes innovative Chinese copying of foreign consumer goods—is employed as a key analytical tool and helps highlight the themes of “Chinese ingenuity,” independence (from game operators and to some extent also parents), and critique (of games).
