i wouldn't say despise, but i'll tell u what i observe of the
PRCs in London.
They see other chinese people, they automatically assume they must
also be from China. They will come enthuastically ask u which part
of china u come from, and if u're not, they will have this mix of
disappointment and distain on their face.
They will persist in speaking in their very 'china'-accented
chinese around others even when in a group with others who either
don't speak chinese or don't understand their accented chinese.
They seem to forget that there is a common language which everyone
can speak, and end up sounding rude using a language that only they
can understand to the exclusivity of the group.
They also tend to mainly socialise amongst other chinese. Like
seriously, if thats the case, whats the point of leaving china to
study overseas? lots of chinese for them to socialise with back
home. They will almost refuse to mix outside of their PRC
clique.
