It's hard to understand how anyone would believe this, specially after so many other fakes
As for this video, well, it's like all the other ones that came before it, we'll know more once we have more data/videos/replication attempts.

The Chinese subtitles in the first demonstration claim "further efforts will be made to reduce impurities", then the subsequent video claims "technical details will be published once they are properly organized and documented".
IMO there’s an awful lot of amateur / informal attempts that are promising enough that, while not convincing, are inspiring of hope. But I do wonder how much is fake. But more than a few seem to be clearly not fake, such as the work Varda is posting.
