A group of Chinese dissidents united to raise awareness of human trafficking in China, especially trafficked women who were 'owned' by men to be their 'wives'. As well, unaffiliated members from r/place and r/ADV_China also supported this effort as well.
Beginning
r/doubanGooseGroup, a feminist Chinese subreddit created r/china_place to create the artwork upon hearing of r/place. Later on, interested members of r/china_irl and r/CLTV joined in.
Relationship to r/CLTV
Initially there was a pledge between r/CLTV and r/china_place that there would be no fighting and that each subreddit's artwork would be next to each other as there had been previous feuds between r/doubanGooseGroup and r/CLTV. As some of r/china_place's members were from r/CLTV and there was intense expansion and interference from other subreddits in the beginning of r/place, there had been a pact established between r/china_place and r/CLTV for protection and development of their respective artworks. Thus r/CLTV was instrumental in making and protecting the Chained Woman artwork and in turn r/china_place would help maintain r/CLTV's artwork. r/CLTV had not officially joined r/china_place but r/china_place could represent r/CLTV when it came to making certain decisions on allies, expansion and choosing what artwork to make because of their shared interest in protesting against the Chinese Communist Party. However at times this relationship was strained as members of r/china_place and r/CLTV feuded over their ideals.
Relationship to r/Xi_Jin_Pooh
There had been a reddit post to r/place to draw a Winnie the Pooh artwork that closely resembled Xi Jinping, the current leader of Communist China and the Chinese Communist Party. Both r/china_place and r/CLTV were very interested and and participated heavily in drawing this artwork and joined the r/xi_jin_pooh subreddit. As well, later on r/HongKong's place group joined in to draw a pig image representing the HongKong protestors who protested for democracy.
Alliances
Mutual Defence Pact (between r/Taiwan, r/Republic of China, Hong Kong Place, Korean Place and Zodiac Place)
Allied with Armenia and Georgia (the country)'s place groups and supported them in their fight against Azerbaijan.
Supported the Place NATO Alliance in defending their members but did not officially join.
Current status
The Discord group and the r/china_place subreddit have been disbanded to avoid detection of Chinese Communist Party Web Police and to protect the privacy of r/china_place's members who can be jailed for protesting and participating in this artwork.
