大功告成. 圓滿結束.

有一個很強烈的感覺: 中國人的時代正式來臨. 盛世已經開始.

真的, 很為國家驕傲, 很為每一個運動員驕傲.

Got into the Olympic topic in one of the class today.
3 words … PISS ME OFF!!!
American kids really do not know what they are talking about.
Brain washed by the media in the opposite way …. .

What happened?

You know, I read some news saying that some of the US media (CNN? ESPN? forgot those BIG names) reports the medal attainment in a different way (i.e. in terms of total number of metals gained (so US become No.1 in this case) while the traditional presentation should be ordered by the number of gold metals gained.

Well….spent some time on thinking of this… … a sign of self-reflection?!…or the difficulties in admitting the being takeover….well, can’t image it not only reflects in the economic & political setting, but also in the sports environment…..weird!!

Yup. Noticed that the first hours I set my feet in the US. they ranked the countries by the total number of medals. so … US became No.1.

it is interesting to see the whole Olympic from a different angel. but I just cannot believe American college kids were so stupid and did not have ANY idea what is going on in the rest of the whole and just absorbing what the media told me. extremely stupid.

haha…you know, media plays a lot of hypnosis tactics unintentionally & intenionally.

Well, I think there will be a breakthrough for the US ppl if they accept being No2 from No1 for the Olympic game, at least, they are more cautious abt & aware of the current situation.

Ignorance won’t help!

I always appreciate the vision of some foreigners who came to China 15 years ago for learning mandarin, chinese culture & doing biz…in fact, pretty visionary.
