Fact: before trading opium in exchange of chinese goods, british used to do trade in silver but it was a drain of precious reserves and as usual they wanted to find cheaper alternative of silver.

The British merely sold opium to Chinese merchants in Canton, who then were the ones who distributed and pushed the drug within China. The only reason the British did this was the balance out the unequal trade policies imposed by the Qing empire which demanded that Chinese merchants buy no goods at all from the western powers, only sell to them. Turns out that opium was the one thing these Chinese traders would defy their emperor to get their hands on, and they became massively wealthy from it, addicting their 'countrymen' to something that had been used in China for centuries already. Stop blaming the British for things you don't really understand.

There is Chinese movie of the Opium Wars I watched as kid. It was surprisingly even handed and was taught so that every Chinese umderstood the humiliation they suffered which was also a consequence of their China's own failings.

Heroin/opium withdrawl is horrendous but it wont kill you.

Anyone search for this video after reading R.F. Kuang's "The Poppy War"?

Actually they tried to buy stuff from China by trading silver. But they soon realized they didn't have enough silver.

Hong Kong Island itself was ceded in perpetuity after the first opium war, but British territory later expanded under the 99 year lease in 1898 to include the entirety of what we now call Hong Kong. This video is otherwise really good aside from this oversight with regard to the timescale of British conquest of Hong Kong, given that this actually later caused a dispute during handover negotiations over whether or not the new territories and kowloon (leased in 1898) could be handed back while the UK kept HK Island itself.
