So there were two gems from the Ningbo Hat Tournament that I forgot to add to my last post. The first being a wonderful new song, a real pump up beat. Enjoy...
Next time you're having an outdoor dance party crank this up and wonder about why none of us can make money writing music.
The second was an analysis of the movie Avatar. One of the guys from Beijing had his Chinese students watch the movie and then discuss it is in class. To anyone from America or Europe the sometimes overbearing theme of colonization and the oppression of indigenous peoples was obvious. To one of this guys students however it was not, presumably because China does not have such an extensive history of colonial rule. His conclusion? If you can get a big bird you'll get a girlfriend and be important and successful. "Big bird" or 大鸟(da niao)...think about it.
