what is the need for everything to be open in the middle of the night?
In many countries close to the equator where it is hot and humid all year round (e.g. Southeast Asian countries), it is unpleasant to hang out in the sun during the day. Most people spend their time indoor in air conditioned buildings during the day. Nightlife is important for people living in those places. Also, people hang out late to watch European soccer, which is part of the social life there.
Similarly, there are many cities in China along Changjiang/Yangtze River like Nanjing, Hangzhou, Wuhan, Chongqing etc. that are just way too fucking hot and humid during the summer. Except for Hangzhou where people go to bed at 9pm (lol), in many cities people prefer to hang out at night due to the unbearable heat during the day.
When I lived in Brasil for a bit with my girlfriend at the time I always found it funny how people would just hang out in front of gas stations at night drinking and socializing. Every station had plastic chairs and benches outside so you know oh this is the designated hang out spot. Something people absolutely do not do around my neck of the woods since I live near a highway and things close by 9-10 pm.
People there just don’t like fun I guess lol. To be clear, there are night clubs and stuff but the streets are already quiet around 9-10pm. Nightlife is just not their vibe.
In places like Wuhan, you can easily hang out at hotpot shops that open until 7am lol.

You’re making a statement about another country that doesn’t apply to the video posted.
That didn’t happen in the US and A before whatever the video is speaking about. It’s neither here nor there.
杭州人为什么睡得这么早？

Bars/clubs/etc still stay open to whatever time they are licensed and allowed to depending upon what part of the US they are in. That hasn’t changed.
Apples and oranges. You’re comparing one country to another and that’s disingenuous.
Again… the complaint was nothing is open 24/7 anymore in the US
