How difficult is it to become a Chinese Citizen again?

My parents immigrated to New Zealand when I was 6 years old, In 1992. I am now 40. I am a New Zealand citizen. However on my NZ passport my City Of Birth: Nanjing

So I am basically a Foreigner. Originally born in China with a Chinese face that have been living in NZ for 34 years. But If I really want to live in China permanently, Can I get Chinese citizen status?

I heard somewhere that If you are a foreinger you basically can't become Chinese Citizen. Best thing they can get is a "green card" or Foreign Permanent Resident ID Card"?

Went to cotai strip and wanted to check out and experience Macau casino night life as an absolute beginner.

Here are the lessons learnt so you don't have to make the same mistakes.

-These casino/hotels are HUGE maze like buildings, that are semi connected with walkways also signs are subpar at best so its very easy to get lost. It's almost like these are purposefully designed to keep you traped inside!

-These Macau casinos only take HKD. I didnt know so when I put down MOP to play, the dealer looked at me angrily and just threw the money back at me😆. Luckily another old guy at the table informed me that they only take HKD.

-At the money counter I wanted the draw out some HKD money just a small amout so I can play as a beginner. The minimum withdraw amout at the counter is 1000HKD. So you need to go outside of casino to find ATM if you want to get less.

-Roulette is slightly different to other casinos I've been to.

Take for example: A min $50 table. The $50 Can only play the centre numbers. But for the outer, eg. Black/Red; odd/even. The min bet is $400.

So when I put my $50 down on Red, the dealer removed my chip and told me min is $400.

-There are some WEALTHY m'fkers around, a guy at my table lays out $5k HKD in play of roulette, losses it all in one spin, instantly whips out another $5k just to loss all that in the next spin. Losing $10k HKD under 10mins and Doesnt even flinch or blink.

- I looked like a newbie so people would come up to me asking if I want to sign up to there loyaly programes. I'm not a gambler so I say no.

- I am happy being a tourist and having experienced Macau Casino. Playing and Lossing with only $100HKD is a fun time.
