杨澜ted英文演讲稿篇一：杨澜TED演讲稿中英文Yang Lan: The generation that's remaking China The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of "China's Got Talent" show in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. Guess who was the performing guestSusan Boyle. And I told her, "I'm going to Scotland the next day." She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese. [Chinese]So it's not like "hello" or "thank you," that ordinary stuff. It means "green onion for free." Why did she say that Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle -- a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese. (Laughter) And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was "green onion for free." So[as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. That was hilarious.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness. They were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through. And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams. Well, being different is not that difficult. We are all different from different perspectives. But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view. You may have the chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years.I remember that in the year of 1990,when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton -- it's still there. So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, "So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me"I summoned my courage and poise and said,"Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell" I didn't have a clue what a salesdepartment was about in a five-star hotel. That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.Around the same time, I was going through an audition -- the first ever open audition by national television in China -- with another thousand college girls. The producer told us they were looking for some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh face. So when it was my turn, I stood up and said, "Why [do] women's personalities on television always have to be beautiful, sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive Why can't they have their own ideas and their own voice" I thought I kind of offended them. But actually, they were impressed by my words. And so I was in the second round of competition, and then the third and the fourth. After seven rounds of competition, I was the last one to survive it. So I was on a national television prime-time show. And believe it or not, that was the first show on Chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script. (Applause) And my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people.Well after a few years, I decided to go to the andColumbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career. So we do a lot of things. I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past. And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, "Lan, you changed my life," and I feel proud of that. But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country. I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games. I was representing the Shanghai Expo.I saw China embracing the world and vice versa. But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to How are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of China, or at large, the worldSo today I want to talk about young people through the platform of social media. First of all, who are they [What] do they look like Well this is a girl called Guo Meimei -- 20 years old, beautiful. She showed off her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the Chinese version of Twitter. And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross at the Chamber ofCommerce. She didn't realize that she stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of Red Cross. The controversy was so heated that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.So far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title -- probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity. All those expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend,who used to be a board member in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce. It's very complicated to explain. But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it. It is still boiling. It shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past. And also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.Microblog boomed in the year of XX, with visitors doubled and time spent on it tripled. , a major news portal, alone has more than 140 million microbloggers. On Tencent, 200 most popular blogger -- it's not me -- it's a movie star, and she has more than millionfollowers, or fans. About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old. And because, as you know, the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government,social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit. But because you don't have many other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese youth even better. So how are they different First of all, most of them were bornin the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy. And because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women. That could pose a potential danger to the society, but who knows; we're in a globalized world, so they can look for girlfriends from other countries. Most of them have fairly good education. The illiteracy rate in China among this generation is under one percent. In cities, 80 percent of kids go to they are facing an aging China with a population above 65 years old coming up with seven-point-some percent this year, andabout to be 15 percent by the year of 2030. And you know we have the tradition that younger generations support the elders financially, and taking care of them when they're sick. So it means young coupleswill have to support four parents who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.So making a living is not that easy for young people. College graduates are not in shorturban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500. So what do they do They have to share space -- squeezed in very limited space to save money -- and they call themselves "tribe of ants." And for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment. That ratio in Americawould only cost a couple five years to earn, but in China it's 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.Among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percent of them are young people. They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas.Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside, but they don't have the sense of belonging. They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare. And they're more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation,tightening loans from banks, appreciation of the renminbi, or decline of demand from Europe or America for the products they produce. Last year, though, an appalling incident in a southern OEM manufacturing compound in China: 13 young workers in their late teens and early 20s committed suicide, just one by one like causing a contagious disease. But they died because of all different personal reasons. But this whole incident aroused a huge outcry from society about the isolation, both physical and mental, of these migrant workers.For those who do return back to the countryside,they find themselves very welcome locally,because with the knowledge, skills and networksthey have learned in the cities, with the assistance of the Internet, they're able to create more jobs,upgrade local agriculture and create new businessin the less developed market. So for the pastfew years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.These diagrams show a more general social background. The first one is the Engels coefficient,which explains that the cost of daily necessitieshas dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family income, to about 37-some percent. But then in the last two years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost. The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of Now it's -- even worse than that in America -- showing us the income inequality. And so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility. And also, the bitterness and even resentment towards the rich and the powerful is quite widespread. So any accusations of corruptionor backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even uest.So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about. Social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they the past decade or so, amassive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private it has aroused huge anger and frustrationamong our young generation. Sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest. So when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the Internet,people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court. Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the Internet. We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food. And guess what, we have faked beef. They have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop. So all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet. Andfortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.While young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they're a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life. China is soon to pass the as the number one market for luxury brands -- that's not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere. But you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 dollars. They're not rich at all. They're taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity and social status. And this is a girl explicitly saying on a TV dating show that she would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called "naked" wedding, or "naked" marriage. It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without adiamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their commitment to true love. And also, people are doing good through social media. And the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogsfor food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watchingthrough microblogging. People were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck. And after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued. And here also people are helping to find missing children. A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet. After thousands of [unclear], the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years. Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment. People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keepsustainability and stability And also, how capable is the systemof self-correctness to keep more people contentwith all sorts of friction going on at the same timeI guess these are the questions people are going to answer. And our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.Thank you very much.杨澜TED演讲：重塑中国的一代中文演讲稿在来爱尔兰的前一晚，我应邀主持了中国达人秀在上海的体育场和八万现场观众。

• So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years. Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment. People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP? How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability? And also, how capable is the system of selfcorrectness to keep more people content with all sorts of friction going on at the same time? time?幸福不仅仅是个人的经历和 个人价值，幸福也关乎环境。人们在思考这样的问题：我们真的要为 了更高的GDP去牺牲我们的环境吗？ 我们如何在实施我们社会政治改革的同时，保持经济增长的可持 续性和稳定性？ 一个系统的自我更正能力如何让更多的人对于同时发生的各种摩 擦满意？

five-star hotel. that was the first day i set my foot in a five-star hotel.well after a few years, i decided to go to the u.s. and columbia university to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media pany, which wasunthought of during the years that i started my career. so we do a lot of things. i"ve interviewed more than a thousand people in the past. and sometimes i have young people approac hing me say, “lan, you changed my life,“ and i feel proud of that. but then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country. i was in beijing"s bidding for the olympic games. i was representing the shanghai expo. i saw china embracing the world and vice versa. but then sometimes i"m thinking, what are today"s young generation up to how are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of china, or at large, the worldso today i want to talk about young people through the platform of social media. firstof all, who are they [what] do they look like well this is a girl called guo meimei -- 20 years old, beautiful. she showed off her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the chinese version of twitter. and she claimed to be the general manager of red cross at the chamber of merce. she didn"trealize that she stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of red cross. the controversy was so heated that the red cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.so far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title -- probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity. all those expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend, who used to be a board member in a subdivision of red cross at chamber of merce. it"s very plicated to explain. but anyway, the public still doesn"t buy it. it is still boiling. it shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past. and also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.microblog boomed in the year of 2022, withvisitors doubled and time spent on it tripled. sina., a major news portal, alone has more than 140 million microbloggers. on tencent, 200 million. the mostpopular blogger -- it"s not me -- it"s a movie star, and she has more than 9.5 million followers, or fans. about 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old. and because, as you know, the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government, social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit. but because you don"t have many other openings, the heat ing out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.so through microblogging, we are able to understand chinese youth even better. so how are they different first of all, most of them were born in the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy. and because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women. that could pose a potential danger to the society, but who knows; we"re in a globalized world, so they can look for girlfriends from other countries. most of them have fairly good education. the illiteracy rate in china among this generation is under one percent. in cities, 80 percent of kids go tocollege. but they are facing an aging china with a population above 65 years old ing up with seven-point-some percent this year, and about to be 15 percent by the year of 2022. and you know we have the tradition that younger generations support the eldersfinancially, and taking care of them when they"re sick. so it means young couples will have to support four parents who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.so making a living is not that easy for young people. college graduates are not in short supply. in urban areas, college graduates find the startingsalary is about 400 u.s. dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500. so what do they do they have to share space -- squeezed in very limited space to save money -- and they callthemselves “tribe of ants.“ and for those whoare ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment. that ratio in america would only cost a couple five years to earn, but inchina it"s 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percentof them are young people. they find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas. most of them don"t want to go back to the countryside, but they don"t have the sense of belonging. they work for longer hours with less ine, less social welfare. and they"re more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation, tightening loans from banks, appreciationof the renminbi, or decline of demand from europe or america for the products they produce. last year, though, an appalling incident in a southern oem manufacturing pound in china: 13 young workers intheir late teens and early 20s mitted suicide, justone by one like causing a contagious disease. but they died because of all different personal reasons. butthis whole incident aroused a huge outcry from society about the isolation, both physical and mental, ofthese migrant workers.for those who do return back to the countryside, they find themselves very wele locally, because with the knowledge, skills and works they have learned in the cities, with the assistance of the inter, they"re able to create more jobs, upgrade local agriculture and create new business in the less developed market. so for the past few years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.these diagrams show a more general social background. the first one is the engels coefficient, which explains that the cost of daily necessities has dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family ine, to about 37-some percent. but then in the last two years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost. the gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4. now it"s 0.5 -- even worse than that in america -- showing us the ine inequality. and so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility. and also, the bitterness and even resentment towards the rich and the powerful is quitewidespread. so any accusations of corruption or backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even unrest.so through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about. social justice and government accountability runs the first in what they demand. for the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on the forced demolition of private property. and it has aroused huge anger and frustration among our young generation. sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest. so when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the inter, people cry for the government to take actions to stop this.so the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the right to order forced demolition from local governments to the court. similarly, many other issues concerning publicsafety is a hot topic on the inter. we heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food. and guess what, we have faked beef. they have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like beef. and then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil from restaurant slop. so all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the inter. and fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.while young people seem to be very sure abouttheir participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they"re a little bit lost in terms of what they want for their personal life. china is soon to pass the u.s. as the number one market for luxury brands -- that"s not including the chinese expenditures in europe and elsewhere. but you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 u.s. dollars. they"re not rich at all.they"re taking those bags and clothes as a sense of identity and social status. and this is a girl explicitly saying on a tv dating show that she would rather cry in a bmw than smile on a bicycle. but of course, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a bmw or [on] a bicycle.so in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called “naked“ wedding, or“naked“ marriage. it does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their mitment to true love. and also, people are doing good through social media. and the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogs for food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watching through microblogging. people were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck. and after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued. and here also people arehelping to find missing children. a father posted his son"s picture onto the inter. after thousands of [unclear], the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.so happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years. happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it"s about the environment. people are thinking about the following questions: are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher gdp how are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability and also, how capable is the system of self-correctness to keep more people content with all sorts of friction going on at the same time i guess these are the questions people are going to answer. and our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves. thank you very much.第三篇：杨澜ted演讲杨澜ted演讲：重塑中国的年轻一代讲义yang lan, born in 1968 in beijing, who holds a master"s degree from columbia university in the united states, is one of china"s 50 most successful entrepreneurs and probably china"s wealthiest self-made woman. yang lan was 21 in her last year at the beijing foreign studies university in 1990 when she auditioned for – and won -- the position of host of the zheng da variety show on china central television. within a year zheng da, a prime-time-saturdaycelebrity quiz and talk show, was china"s top-rated tv program, with an audience of 220 million. despite her celebrity, yang lan quit the show after four years to go to new york where she spent two years earning a master"s degree at columbia university"s school of international public affairs. yang"s tv skills are matched by a keen mind for business. in 1999, with her husband, bruno wu zheng, she started her own media pany, sun television cyber works (sun tv). traded on the hong kong stock exchange since last april, sun tv was valued at $179 million on nov. 3. yang owns 35%, worth $63 million.yang"s mother was an engineer, andher father taught english literature at beijingforeign studies university and sometimes served as the official translator for former chinese premier zhou enlai. yang lan was appointed one of the image ambassadors of beijing in its 2022 bid in january, joining deng yaping and two other chinese women to be so honored: gong li, the film actress, and sang lan, the gymnast who was paralyzed in 1998 as she represented china at the goodwill game in the united states.key words：1. heading for 去...2.performing guest表演嘉宾3.vendor 小贩4.hilarious 滑稽的5. belonged

they？ how are they different and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of china, or at large, the world？as is known to us, our young generation we was born in the 80s and 90s under the one-child policy at a time when china has undergone so many enormous historical transformations, there is no doubt that thy are different and in her address, i have observed agreat many sparkling points from their descent behaviors. first of all, most of them are well-educated. the illiteracy rate among this generation is under one percent. this totally indicates that they have great knowledge and wisdom. they are improvingour nation’s soft influence so that it won’t take long time for us to build a power ful china. what’s more, theyhave rather high sense of social responsibilities and missions. on one hand, they have undertaken their obligations to the fullest extent. among the city’s workers, 80% are young people. regardless of lower ine, less social welfare and worse living conditions, they just sacrifice themselves to deepen our country’s industrialization and urbanization. some of them even return to the countryside a less developed market where with their intelligence they are able to create more jobs, upgrade local agriculture and create new business. in their hands issues concerning agriculture, countryside and farmers have been nicely solved. onthe other hand, they have made most of their rights todo something meaningful. facing a series offrustrating social phenomena, such as guomeimei case, forced demolition of private property, public safety, they cry for social justice and government accountability. finally it works out. it’s certain that they are participating inpublic policy-making. also they are doing good through social media, saving those abandoned dogs. in addition, they have the unique spirit of challenging the traditional culture.naked wedding is their creativity. they are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and a wedding banquet to show their mitment to true love. it is those shining points that have presented us a different view of the young generation. therefore, they have the chance to make a difference.of course, for this generation, when they purse their happiness, they are suffering from a variety of adversities which have been mentioned in the speech, an aging china, the skyrocketing real estate price, the ine inequality the polluted environment etc. but iam deeply convinced that our younger generation has the abilities to overe them, have the potentials to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economicgrowth, to keep sustainability and stability, for they truly know that their personal fates are closely related to our nation’s development and prosperity. they will have hopeful prospect!第五篇：杨澜ted演讲的单词列表vocabularyintroductionentrepreneur 企业家the oprah of china 中国的奥普拉insight 洞察microblog 微型injustice 不公正--- part 2fortunate

英文演讲稿：the night before i was heading for scotland, i was invited to host the final of “china’s got talent” show in shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. guess who was the performing guest? susan boyle. and i told her, “i’m going to scotland the next day.” she sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in chinese. [chinese] soit’s not like “hello” or “thank you,” that ordinary stuff. it means “greenonion for free.” why did she say that? because it was a line from our chinese parallel susan boyle — a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor inshanghai, who loves singing western opera, but she didn’t understand anyenglish or french or italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in chinese.

她在演讲中分享了自己的人生经历，并讲述了当下中国的一些火热现象，演讲虽然不长，但是很多观点都很精辟，非常值得一看。
英文演讲稿：the night before i was heading for scotland, i was invited to host the final of “china’s got talent” show in shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. guess who was the performing guest? susan boyle. and i told her, “i’m going to scotland the next day.” she sang bea utifully, and she even managed to say a few words in chinese. [chinese] soit’s not like “hello” or “thank you,” that ordinary stuff. it means “greenonion for free.” why did she say that? because it was a line from our chinese parallel susan boyle — a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor inshanghai, who loves singing western opera, but she didn’t understand anyenglish or french or italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in chinese. (laughter) and the last sentence of nessun d ormathat she was singing in the stadium was “green onion for free.” so [as] susanboyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. that was hilarious.so i guess both susan boyle and this vegetable vendor in shanghai belonged to otherness. they were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought themthrough. and a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams.well, being different is not that difficult. we are all different from differentperspectives. but i think being different is good, because you present a different point of view. you may have the chance to make a difference.my generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of china that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years. i remember that in the year of 1990, when i was graduating from college, i was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in beijing, great wall sheraton —it’s still there. so after being interrogated by this japanese manager for a half an hour,he finally said, “so, miss yang, do you have any questions to ask me?” i summoned my courage and poise and said, “yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell?” i didn’t have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel. that was the first day i set my foot in a five-star hotel.around the same time, i was going through an audition —the first ever open audition by national television in china — with another thousand college girls. the producer told us they were looking for some sweet,innocent and beautiful fresh face. so when it was my turn, i stood up and said,“why [do] women’s personalities on television always have to be beautiful,sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive? why can’t they have their own ideas and their own voice?” i thought i kind of offended them. but actually, they were impressed by my words. and so i was in the second round of competition,and then the third and the fourth. after seven rounds of competition, i was the last one to survive it. so i was on a national television prime-time show. and believe it or not, that was the first show on chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script.(applause) and my weekly audienceat that time was between 200 to 300 million people.well after a few years, i decided to go to the u.s. and columbia university to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my ownmedia company, which was unthought of during the years that i started mycareer. so we do a lot of things. i’ve interviewed more than a thousand peoplein the past. and sometimes i have young people approaching me say, “lan, you changed my life,” and i feel proud of that. but then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country.i was in beijing’s bidding for the olympic games. i was representing the shanghai expo. i saw china embracing the world and vice versa. but then sometimes i’m think ing, what are today’s young generation up to? how are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of china, or at large,the world?so today i want to talk about young people through the platform of social media. first of all, who are they?

Guess who was the performing guestSusan Boyle. And I told her, "I'm going to Scotland the next day." She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese. [Chinese]So it's not like "hello" or "thank you," that ordinary stuff.It means "green onion for free." Why did she say that Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle -- a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed tofill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese. (Laughter) And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was "green onion for free." So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. That was hilarious.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness. They were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through. And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realize their dreams. Well, being different is not that difficult. We are all different from different perspectives. But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view. You may have the chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years. I remember that in the year of 1990,when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton -- it's still there. So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, "So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me"I summoned my courage and poise and said,"Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell" I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel. That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.Around the same time, I was going through an audition -- the first ever open audition by national television in China -- with another thousand college girls. The producer told us they were looking for some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh face. So when it was my turn, I stood up and said, "Why [do] women's personalities on television always have to be beautiful, sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive Why can't they have their own ideas and their own voice" I thought I kind of offended them. But actually, they were impressed by my words. And so I was in thesecond round of competition, and then the third and the fourth. After seven rounds of competition, I was the last one to survive it. So I wason a national television prime-time show. And believe it or not, thatwas the first show on Chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script. (Applause)And my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people.Well after a few years, I decided to go to the . and Columbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career. So wedo a lot of things. I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past. And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, "Lan, you changed my life," and I feel proud of that. But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country. I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games. I was representing the Shanghai Expo. I saw China embracing the world and vice versa. But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to How are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of China, or at large, the worldSo today I want to talk about young people through the platform ofsocial media. First of all, who are they [What] do they look like Wellthis is a girl called Guo Meimei -- 20 years old, beautiful. She showedoff her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the Chinese version of Twitter. And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross at the Chamber of Commerce. She didn't realize that shestepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of Red Cross. The controversy was so heated that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.So far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title -- probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity. Allthose expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend,who used to be a board member in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce. It's very complicated to explain. But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it. It is still boiling. It shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparencyin the past. And also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.Microblog boomed in the year of 2010, with visitors doubled and timespent on it tripled. , a major news portal, alone has more than 140million microbloggers. On Tencent, 200 most popular blogger -- it's not me -- it's a movie star, and she has more than million followers, or fans. About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old. And because, as you know, the traditional media is stillheavily controlled by the government,social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit. But because you don't have many other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese youth even better. So how are they different First of all, most of them were bornin the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy. And because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women. That could pose a potential danger to the society, but who knows; we're in a globalized world, so they can look for girlfriends from other countries. Most of them have fairly good education. The illiteracy rate in China among this generation is under one percent. In cities, 80 percent of kids go to they are facing an aging China with a population above 65 years old coming up with seven-point-some percent this year, and about to be 15 percent by the year of 2030. And you know we have the tradition that younger generations support the elders financially, and taking care of them when they're sick. So it means young coupleswill have to support four parents who have a life expectancy of 73 years old.So making a living is not that easy for young people. College graduates are not in short urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 . dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500. So what do they doThey have to share space -- squeezed in very limited space to save money -- and they call themselves "tribe of ants." And for those who are ready to get married and buy their apartment, they figured out they have to work for 30 to 40 years to afford their first apartment. That ratio in Americawould only cost a couple five years to earn, but in China it's 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.Among the 200 million migrant workers, 60 percent of them are young people. They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas. Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside, but they don't have the sense of belonging. They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare. And they're more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation,tightening loans from banks, appreciation of the renminbi, or decline of demand from Europe or America for the products they produce. Last year, though, an appalling incident in a southern OEM manufacturing compound in China: 13 young workers in their late teens and early 20s committed suicide, just one by one like causing a contagious disease. But they died because of all different personal reasons. But this whole incident aroused a huge outcry from society about the isolation, both physical and mental, of these migrant workers.For those who do return back to the countryside,they find themselves very welcome locally,because with the knowledge, skills and networkstheyhave learned in the cities, with the assistance of the Internet, they're able to create more jobs,upgrade local agriculture and create new businessin the less developed market. So for the past few years, the coastal areas, they found themselves in a shortage of labor.These diagrams show a more general social background. The first one isthe Engels coefficient,which explains that the cost of daily necessitieshas dropped its percentage all through the past decade, in terms of family income, to about 37-some percent. But then in the lasttwo years, it goes up again to 39 percent, indicating a rising living cost. The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of .Now it's -- even worse than that in America -- showing us the income inequality. And so you see this whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility. And also, the bitterness and evenresentment towards the rich and the powerful is quite widespread. So any accusations of corruptionor backdoor dealings between authorities or business would arouse a social outcry or even unrest.So through some of the hottest topics on microblogging, we can see what young people care most about. Social justice and governmentaccountability runs the first in what they the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot ofreports on the forced demolition of private it has aroused huge anger and frustrationamong our young generation. Sometimes people get killed, and sometimes people set themselves on fire to protest. So when these incidents are reported more and more frequently on the Internet,peoplecry for the government to take actions to stop this.So the good news is that earlier this year, the state council passed a new regulation on house requisition and demolition and passed the rightto order forced demolition from local governments to the court.Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is a hot topic on the Internet. We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food. And guess what, we have faked beef. They have sorts of ingredients that you brush on a piece of chicken or fish, and it turns it to look like then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil, because thousands of people have been found [refining] cooking oil fromrestaurant slop. So all these things have aroused a huge outcry from the Internet. And fortunately, we have seen the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.While young people seem to be very sure about their participation in public policy-making, but sometimes they're a little bit lost in termsof what they want for their personal life. China is soon to pass the .as the number one market for luxury brands -- that's not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere. But you know what, half of those consumers are earning a salary below 2,000 . dollars. They're not rich at all. They're taking those bags and clothes as a sense ofidentity and social status. And this is a girl explicitly saying on a TV dating show that she would rather cry in a BMW than smile on a ofcourse, we do have young people who would still prefer to smile, whether in a BMW or [on] a bicycle.So in the next picture, you see a very popular phenomenon called "naked" wedding, or "naked" marriage. It does not mean they will wear nothing in the wedding, but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without a house, without a car, without a diamond ring and without a wedding banquet, to show their commitment to true love. And also, people are doing good through social media. And the first picture showed us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogsfor food processing was spotted and stopped on the highway with the whole country watchingthrough microblogging. People were donating money, dog food and offering volunteer work to stop that truck. And after hours of negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued. And here also people are helping to find missing children. A father posted his son's picture onto the Internet. After thousands of [unclear], the child was found, and we witnessed the reunion of the family through microblogging.So happiness is the most popular word we have heard through the past two years. Happiness is not only related to personal experiences and personal values, but also, it's about the environment. People are thinking about the following questions: Are we going to sacrifice our environment further to produce higher GDP How are we going to perform our social and political reform to keep pace with economic growth, to keep sustainability and stability And also, how capable is the systemof self-correctness to keep more people contentwith all sorts of friction going on at the same timeI guess these are the questions people are going to answer. And our younger generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.Thank you very much.杨澜TED演讲：重塑中国的一代中文演讲稿在来爱尔兰的前一晚，我应邀主持了中国达人秀在上海的体育场和八万现场观众。

杨澜TED演讲·关于中国的年青一代
杨澜TED演讲关于中国的年青一代英文：The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of China-Scot talent show in Shanghai with 80,000 live audiences in the stadium. Guess who was the performing guest?---Susan Boyle(苏珊大妈）. Then I told her “I am going to Scotland next day!”She sang beautifully and she even managed to sing in Chinese “Song Ni Cong”. It is not like “Hello” or :Thank you” those ordinary stuff. It means “green onion for free”. Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese paralier(?) of Susan Boyle, a fifty some old woman, a vegetable vender, who loves singing western operas, but she did not understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill the lyrics in Chinese with vegetable names in Chinese. And the last sentence of “Nessun Dorma”（今夜无人入睡）that she was singing in the stadium was green onion for free!” So Susan Boyle was seen that 80,000 live audience sang together. That was hilarious.So I guess Susan Boyle and this vegetable vender in Shanghai belong to otherness. Y ou know, they were at least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment in their courage and talent brought them though and the show and the platform give them the stage to realize their dreams. Well, being different is not that difficult. We are all different, from different perspectives but I think being different is good, because you present different point of views, you may have the chance to makethe difference. My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate the historical transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20,30 years. I remember that the year of 1990 when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing----the GreatWall Sherston （长城喜来登宾馆）, it‟s still there. So being interrogated by this Japanese manager for half an hour , he finally said “Miss Y ang, do you have any questions to ask me ?” I summoned my courage and pose and said “Y es, but could you let me know what actually do you sell?” I didn‟t have a clue about sales department in a five-star hotel, that was the first day I set my foot into a five-star hotel. Around the same time, I was going through an audition---the first even open audition by national television in China with another thousand girls, the producer told us they were looking some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh new face. So when it was my turn , I stood up and said “why women personalities on television always have to be sweet, innocent and supportive, why they can‟t have their own ideas , their own voice. I thought I ,you know, a kind of offended them but actually they were impressed by my words. And so I was in the second round competition and the third, the fourth and after several competition, I was the last one to survive it. So I was on the national television prime time show. And believe it or not, that was the first show of Chinese television that allowed its host to speak out their own mindwithout reading the proved script---and ---I was (applause)---and my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people. well, after a few years, I decided to go to the Columbia University to pursuit my postgraduate studies and then started my own media company while was on was the thought during the years that I started my career, so we do lot of things, I interviewed more than thousand people in the past, and sometimes I have young people approaching (?) say “Y anglan, you change my life”you know, I feel pound that. But then, we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country. I was in the Beijing …s speeding for the Olympic games. I was representing Shanghai EXPO. I saw China embracing the world and vice versa. But sometimes I am thinking, you know, what or today‟s young people up to? How are they different? What the differences they are going to make to shape the future China or at large the world? So today I want to talk about young people though the platform of social media. First of all, who are they? How do they look like?Well, this is the girl called Guo Meimei, 20 yeas old, beautiful, she showed off her expensive bags, clothes, car on her micro blog which is Chinese version of Twitter and she claimed to be the General Manager of Red Cross at the chamber of commerce. She didn‟t realize that she‟s stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused a national questioning almost turmoil against the credibility of the Red Cross. The controversy was soheated that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it and the investigation is going on. So far, er, at least today, we know she herself made up that title. Probably, because she was proud of being associated with charity, or, those expensive items were given to her as gift by her boyfriend who used to be a board in the subdivision of the Red Cross at the chamber of commerce. This is very complicated to explain. But any way, the public still don‟t buy it. It is still boiling. It shows us that the general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions which lack transparence in the past, it also showed us the power of impact of social media as mircoblog.Micro blog boomed in the year of 2010 with visitors doubled and time spend on it tribled. , a major spotter (?) along has more than 140,000,000 bloggers, on Tecent, 200,000,000. The most popular blogger, isn‟t me, it‟s a movie star as she has 9,500.000 followers or fans. About 80% these microbloggers are young people under 30 years old. Because as you understand that the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government so social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit but because you don‟t have other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent. So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese younth even better.So how are they different?First of all, most of them were born in the 80s and 90s under the “One Child”policy because selected abortion of families who favor boys to girls, now we are ending up with 30.000.000 more young men than women. That could pose potential a danger to the society but who knows in the globalized world so they can look for girlfriends from other countries. Most of them have fairly good education. The illiteracy rate in China among this generation is under 1%. In cities, 80% of kids go to college, but they are facing an aging China with the population above 65 years old coming up with 7% this year and about to be 15% by the year 2030. Y ou know, we have the tradition that the younger generation support the elder financially and taking care of them when they are sick.. So it means young couples will have to support 4 parents, er, who have the life expectancy as to 73 years old.So making a living is not that easy for young people. College students are not in short supply. In the urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 US dollars a month while the average rent is above 500 US dollars a month. What do they do! They have to share space, squeeze in very limited space to save money and they called themselves “the tribe of ants”. And for those who are ready to get married and by their apartment, they figure out they have to work for 30—40 years afford their first apartment. That ratio in American could only cause a couple 5 years to earn but in China is 30—40years with the highrocketing real estate price. Among the 200,000,000 migrant workers, 60% of them are young people. They find themselves, a sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and rural areas. Most of them don‟t go back to the countryside. But they don‟t have the sense of belonging. They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare, and er, they are more? to job loses, subject to inflation, tightly loans of banks, apparition of Renmingbi. Or a decline of demands from Europe or America, for the products they produce. Last year, though a following incident in a south OEM manufacture compound in China, 17 young workers in their late teens and early 20s committed suicide, just one by one, like causing a contagious disease, but they died because of all different personal reasons but the whole incident aroused a huge outcry from the social about the isolation about physical and mental of this migrant workers. For those who do return to the countryside found themselves very welcome locally, because with the knowledge, skills and networks they have learned in cities with the assistance of internet, they are able to create more jobs, create local agriculture and create new business in the less developed markets, so for the past a few years, the coastal areas found them in shortage of labor. These diagrams show more general social background. The first one is the engels coefficient which explain that daily necessity has dropped its percentage all though the past decade in terms of the family income to about 30 some percent, but in the last two years, it goesup again to 39%, indicating arising living cost. The Gini coefficient has already passed the dangerous line of 0.4%, now is 0.5, even worse than that in America, showing us the income in the quality. And so you see the whole society getting frustrated about losing some of its mobility and also the bitterness and resentment toward the rich and powerful is quite wild spread. So in the accusation of backdoor dealings between the authority or business would arouse social outcry and even unrest. So through some of the hottest topics on mircoblogging, we can see what young people care most about. Social justice and government accountability ranks the first in what they demand. For the past decade or so, a massive urbanization and development have let us witness a lot of reports on forced demolition of private property and it has aroused huge anger and frustration among our young generation. Sometimes people get killed, sometimes people set them on themselves on fire to protest so when these incidence are reported more and more frequently on the Internet, people cry for the government take actions to stop these. So the good news is that earlier this year, the State Council passed the new regulation on house recognition and demolition and pass the right to order forced demolition from local government to the court. Similarly, many other issues concerning public safety is other hot topic on the Internet. We heard about polluted air, polluted water, poisoned food and guess what, we have faked beef, they have sorts of ingredients that you brush on apiece of chicken or fish and it turns to look like beef. And then lately, people are very concerned about cooking oil because thousands of people have been found recruding cooking oil from the restaurant sewer. So all those things have aroused the huge outcry from the Internet. Fortunately, we have found that the government responding more timely and also more frequently to the public concerns.We young people seem to be very sure about their participation into public policy-making. But sometimes they are a little lost in what they want for the personal life. China is soon passing the USA as the NO.1 market for luxury bands that is not including the Chinese expenditures in Europe and elsewhere. Y ou know what, half of those consumers are earning the salary below the 2000usadollars. They are not rich at all. They are taking those bags, clothes as a sense of identity and social statues. And this is a girl explicitly saying on TV dating show that she would rather crying in BMW than smiling on the bicycle. But we do have young people who still prefer smile whether in BMW or a bicycle. So that first picture, you see a very popular phenomena called "Naked Wedding" or "Naked Marriage" dose not mean they will noting in wedding but it shows that these young couples are ready to get married without houses, cars, without diamond ring and without a wedding banquet to show us that their commitment to the true love.Also people are doing good through social media, the first pictureshows us that a truck caging 500 homeless and kidnapped dogs for food processing was spotted and stopped on high way with the whole country watching through microbloggoing. People were donating money, dog food and offer volunteer work to stop the truck. And after hours negotiation, 500 dogs were rescued. And here also people are helping the missing children. The father posed the son's picture onto the Internet after thousands of resents in reply. The child was found and we witnessed the reunion of the family through the mircoblogging. So the happiness is the most words we have been heard though past two years. Happiness is not just related to personal values but also it is about environment. People are thinking about the following questions: are we going to sacrifice our environment future to produce higher GDP? How are going to perform our social and political surspibilty(？没听出来）and stability. And also how capable of the system of self-correctness to keep more people contend with the all sorts of friction going on at the same time. I guess those are the questions people are going answer and our young generation are going to transform this country while at the same time being transformed themselves.Thank you very much !。

杨澜-改变中国一代,中英对照
澜TED演讲：重塑中国的年轻一代（英文演讲稿）Yang Lan: The generation that's remaking ChinaThe night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of "China's Got Talent" show in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. Guess who was the performing guest?Susan Boyle. And I told her, "I'm going to Scotland the next day." She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese. [Chinese]So it's not like "hello" or "thank you," that ordinary stuff. It means "green onion for free." Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle -- a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese. (Laughter) And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was "green onion for free." So [as] Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. That was hilarious.So I guess both Susan Boyle and this vegetable vendor in Shanghai belonged to otherness. They were the least expected to be successful in the business called entertainment, yet their courage and talent brought them through. And a show and a platform gave them the stage to realizetheir dreams. Well, being different is not that difficult. We are all different from different perspectives. But I think being different is good, because you present a different point of view. You may have the chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of China that has made so many changes in the past 20, 30 years. I remember that in the year of 1990,when I was graduating from college, I was applying for a job in the sales department of the first five-star hotel in Beijing, Great Wall Sheraton -- it's still there. So after being interrogated by this Japanese manager for a half an hour, he finally said, "So, Miss Yang, do you have any questions to ask me?"I summoned my courage and poise and said,"Yes, but could you let me know, what actually do you sell?" I didn't have a clue what a sales department was about in a five-star hotel. That was the first day I set my foot in a five-star hotel.Around the same time, I was going through an audition -- the first ever open audition by national television in China -- with another thousand college girls. The producer told us they were looking for some sweet, innocent and beautiful fresh face. So when it was my turn, I stood up and said, "Why [do] women's personalities on television always have to bebeautiful, sweet, innocent and, you know, supportive? Why can't they have their own ideas and their own voice?" I thought I kind of offended them. But actually, they were impressed by my words. And so I was in the second round of competition, and then the third and the fourth. After seven rounds of competition, I was the last one to survive it. So I was on a national television prime-time show. And believe it or not, that was the first show on Chinese television that allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds without reading an approved script. (Applause) And my weekly audience at that time was between 200 to 300 million people. Well after a few years, I decided to go to the U.S. and Columbia University to pursue my postgraduate studies, and then started my own media company, which was unthought of during the years that I started my career. So we do a lot of things. I've interviewed more than a thousand people in the past. And sometimes I have young people approaching me say, "Lan, you changed my life," and I feel proud of that. But then we are also so fortunate to witness the transformation of the whole country. I was in Beijing's bidding for the Olympic Games. I was representing the Shanghai Expo. I saw China embracing the world and vice versa. But then sometimes I'm thinking, what are today's young generation up to? How are they different, and what are the differences they are going to make to shape the future of China, or at large, the world?So today I want to talk about young people through the platform of social media. First of all, who are they? [What] do they look like? Well this is a girl called Guo Meimei -- 20 years old, beautiful. She showed off her expensive bags, clothes and car on her microblog, which is the Chinese version of Twitter. And she claimed to be the general manager of Red Cross at the Chamber of Commerce. She didn't realize that she stepped on a sensitive nerve and aroused national questioning, almost a turmoil, against the credibility of Red Cross. The controversy was so heated that the Red Cross had to open a press conference to clarify it, and the investigation is going on.So far, as of today, we know that she herself made up that title -- probably because she feels proud to be associated with charity. All those expensive items were given to her as gifts by her boyfriend,who used to be a board member in a subdivision of Red Cross at Chamber of Commerce. It's very complicated to explain. But anyway, the public still doesn't buy it. It is still boiling. It shows us a general mistrust of government or government-backed institutions, which lacked transparency in the past. And also it showed us the power and the impact of social media as microblog.Microblog boomed in the year of 2010, with visitors doubled and time spent on it tripled. , a major news portal, alone has more than 140 million microbloggers. On Tencent, 200 million.The most popular blogger -- it's not me -- it's a movie star, and she has more than 9.5 million followers, or fans. About 80 percent of those microbloggers are young people, under 30 years old. And because, as you know, the traditional media is still heavily controlled by the government,social media offers an opening to let the steam out a little bit. But because you don't have many other openings, the heat coming out of this opening is sometimes very strong, active and even violent.So through microblogging, we are able to understand Chinese youth even better. So how are they different? First of all, most of them were bornin the 80s and 90s, under the one-child policy. And because of selected abortion by families who favored boys to girls, now we have ended up with 30 million more young men than women.

They find themselves sort of sandwiched between the urban areas and the rural areas. Most of them don't want to go back to the countryside, but they don't have the sense of belonging. They work for longer hours with less income, less social welfare. And they're more vulnerable to job losses, subject to inflation,tightening loans from banks, appreciation ofthe renminbi, or decline of demand from Europe or America for the products they produce.

我告诉她,“我明天就要启程去苏格兰.”她唱得很动听,还对观众说了几句中文,她并没有说简单的”你好“或者”谢谢“,她说的是——“送你葱”（SongNiCong).
为什么？这句话其实于中国版的“苏珊大妈”——一位五十岁的以卖菜为生,却对西方歌剧有出奇爱好的上海中年妇女（蔡洪平）.这位中国的苏珊大妈并不懂英文,法语或意大利文,所以她将歌剧中的词汇都换做中文中的蔬菜名,并且演唱出来.
在她口中,歌剧《图兰朵》的最后一句便是“SongNiCong”.当真正的英国苏珊大妈唱出这一句“中文的”《图兰朵》时,全场的八万观众也一起高声歌唱,场面的确有些滑稽（hilarious).

这样看来,与众不同好像没有那么难.从不同的方面审视,我们每个人都是不同的.
但是我想,与众不同是一件好事,因为你代表了不一样的观点,你拥有了做改变的机会.Mygenerationhasbeenveryfortunatetowitnessandparticipateinthehistor ictransformationofChinathathasmadesomanychangesinthepast20,30years.Ir ememberthatintheyearof1990,whenIwasgraduatingfromcollege,Iwasapplying

我记得1990年,当我刚大学毕业时,我申请了当时北京的第一家五星级酒店——长城喜来登酒店的销售部门的工作.这家酒店现在仍在北京.
当我被一位日本籍经理面试了一个半小时之后,他问到,“杨小姐,你有什么想问我的吗？”,我屏住呼吸,问道“是的,你能告诉我,具体我需要销售些什么吗？”当时的我,对五星级酒店的销售部门没有任何概念,事实上,那是我第一次进到一家五星级酒店.Aroundthesametime,Iwasgo.

节目制作人说,他们希望找到一位甜美,无辜（LOL）,漂亮的新鲜面孔.轮到我的时候,我问道“为什么在电视屏幕上,女性总应该表现出甜美漂亮,甚至是服从性的一面？为什么她们不能有她们自己的想法和声音？“我觉得我的问题甚至有点冒犯到了他.
