2、say a few words in Chinese,Song Ni Cong.So it is not like Hello or thank you ,those ordinary stuff .It means green onions for free.Why did she say that?Because this was a line from our Chinese parallel Suan Boyle a fifty some years old woman,a vegetable vendor in ShangHai,who loves singing western o
3、pera,but she didt understand any English Italian or French,so she managed to fill the lyrics with vegetabale names in Chinese.And the last sentence of Nessan Dorma that she was singing was green onion for free.So as Susan Boyle was singing that ,80,000 audience sang together.That was hilarious.So I
4、guess both suan boyle and the vegetable vendor 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 or platform gave them a stage to realize their dreams.Well,being different is not that
5、difficult.We are all different from different perspectives.But I think being different is good,because you represent a different point of view.You may have a chance to make a difference.My generation has been very fortunate to witness and participate in the historic transformation of china that has

8、e-star hotel.Around the same time,I was going through a audition,the first ever open audition by national television in china,with another thousand college girls.The producer told that they was looking for some sweet innocent beautiful fresh face.When it was my turn,I stood up and said,”Why womens p
9、ersonalities on television always have to be beautiful,sweet,innocent ,and ,you know,supportive?wht cant they have their own ideas and their own voice?”I think I kind of offended them.But,actually they was impressed by my words.So I was in the second round competition,and third and forth.After seven
10、 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 allowed its hosts to speak out of their own minds,without reading an approved script.And my weekly audience at that time were
11、200 to 300 million people.Well after a few years ,I decided to go to US and Columbia Univsercity to purse my postgraduates studies and the I 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 interviewed more than a thousand peop
12、le in the past.And sometime I have young people approaching me say:Lan,you changed my life.”and I feel proud of that.But that we are also so fortunate to witeness the transformation of the whole country.I was in the Beijings bidding for the Olympic Games.I was representing the Shanghai Expo.I saw china embracing the world and vice versa.
