People at railway stations using notepads (or the temporary LCD like erasable wax) because they understand the written language, but they talk in their own language, so I'd imagine written Chinese isn't usually pronounced at all unless it's some deliberate phonetic transliteration. Maybe nearly 300 actually used spoken languages in China.
