Leaving at 1:35 AM

No matter how wonderful the dinner was, it will always come to the time to say goodbye.

One year has passed since the first I joined TCI, half a year has flied over my mind from the first day TCI Shanghai has been fully established on Feb.02nd, 2009.

The mixed taste in my heart to review the year has passed: I thought I grew, but the people around me they are still seeing the same Yang; I thought I didn't grew, but the people far away from me they are telling me how Yang has changed during the year.

There are so many people to thank in my life and I always hold the appreciation silently in my heart. I thought they could hear, maybe they do, maybe they don't.

Today was my last day serving for the company, soon I am gonna start my life in Beijing for the next year. Tomorrow Jianghuai gonna come to help me move the house which I really appreciate of him. Meanwhile, tomorrow would be both tough and touching.

p.s. since blogspot has been blocked all the time in China, I used VPN to update this blog, so it will not be so frequently as before. However, I am trying to build here like something, even without any results.

Night, everyone, time to sleep, last day in Nan Jing Xi Lu, Jing An.

Gmail,Blogspot and Picasa all blocked in China. June.25th, 2009. at 2:02 PM

Sorry all that I haven't updated my blog for a while.

The blogspot has been blocked in China from the middle of May, until today hasn't been unblocked yet.

Gmail, Picasa album, google search page has been blocked in China since last night, June.24th, 2009.

Confirmed from Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu from mainland of China.

Xian Heng Restaurant at 8:10 PM

After a whole day's business trip in Keqiao, we four drove to Shaoxing to have our long waited dinner in Xian Heng Restaurant. 

This was a quite interesting dinner, full food served like a school's cafe, however, everything relates to the culture here was quite delicious. 

Yellow wine satisfied my colleagues' taste and they said it was like a alchol Pepsi taste. Anyhow, I was not a fan at all.

Tomorrow the clients' meeting going on, waiting for the Eurovision of this weekend.

La Voix at 11:27 PM

After my reviewing all the songs of Eurovision 2009 songs, Sweden (La voix), Finland (Lose Control), Albania(Carry me in your dreams), Norway (Fairytale), Iceland(Is it true)are my top 5 favourites. Maybe you have seen some my over preference on Nordic coutries, however, since I am totally a outsider from Eurovision, from China. I would say this year's Nodic songs are gorgeous purely based on listening only, not sure about stage performing.
May 16th will be the final show, I am so expecting that. Every year, never stops.

Well, here quoting the lyrics of La Voix, my favourite one based on my first reviewing by listening :)
______________


La Voix Lyrics
(by: Fredrik Kempe)
Can you keep a secret
Can you keep a secret
I'm in love with you
Can you make a promise
Can you make a promise
Stay forever true
Then I'm forever yours

Je t'aime, amour, quand j'entends la voix
Je t'aime, ma vie, c'est jamais sans toi
Je vis ma vie pour toi, c'est l'universe pour moi
Je t'aime, amour, quand j'entends la voix

Tell me what you're feeling
Tell me what you're feeling
I just wanna know
Tell me what you're dreaming
Tell me what you're dreaming
Let your feelings show
Stay and don't let go

Je t'aime, amour, quand j'entends la voix
Je t'aime, ma vie, c'est jamais sans toi
Je vis ma vie pour toi, c'est l'universe pour moi
Je t'aime, amour, quand j'entends la voix

Je vis ma vie pour toi, c'est l'universe pour moi
Je t'aime, amour, quand j'entends la voix

J'entends la voix
La voix

Slide Show of Suzhou Trip. May 01 - May 03, 2009 at 10:49 AM

Suzhou at 11:01 PM

It has been a long holiday.

Suzhou was definitely a medium-size Chinese city I like. Similar to Beijing, and unlike Shanghai, it has kept such a unique culture from anywhere in or around the city. The only difference was Suzhou with black roof, while Beijing red.

Humble Administration was not so worthy to see while it has been too commercial and it's just a private garden. However, panmen area was far better recommended since the tower and wall there under the sunshine was freshing and fasinating. 

Beyond all, Suzhou is also famous for the small canals twisting inside the city, Shan Tang was a good area in the northern western corner of the town, near Shi Lu Nan, which is a commercial walking street.

Riding a bike in the picturized city is kind of fun too, if you wanna know where to rent the bike, just drop me a message, RMB 20 for a day is a comparatively fair price, though I thought I could find better one.

This photo was taken on the bridge on the southern moat bridge near Pan Men.

Another busy week, wish everyone enjoy the Spring.

P.S. Eurovision is on the way, from facebook, I saw some rehearsals was released out, however, youtube got blocked in Shanghai again, I got wait to the final show in Moscow. Expecting as before :)

Wuning Bridge at 11:39 PM

Haven't updated my blog for a long while since it has been super busy for these week. From Monday to Wednesday, I am in the office to deal everything that needed to be done within the week. From Thursday to Friday, I am always on the business trip in Zhejiang, most of them was based in Yiwu, Zhuji and Shaoxing, since a lot of Indian clients are there. I also joined the local Indian business association which is called SIBA, however, I missed the 1st time's event of Bowling. For the next event, it will be cricket, I think it should be fun, but need to wait until the middle of May. 

This is the photo of Wuning Bridge which I have taken on the way, for a long while I was trying to take photo for this amazing bridge, finally I got the chance to snap to shot with my barely remained battery in my camera.

Well, VIBE fm still goes on top hits in my ipod, Akcent's "That's my name" and "King of disco" have been written into my March's favourite.

Well, May Day soon, should be the day after tomorrow, a lot to prepare to have fun, that's why I can only write this short right now. Cleaning my room, and a good rest would be a perfect choice after.

Cherry Blossoms at 9:58 AM

It was aonther weekend.

Spring is coming together with the flowers after showering so much in the rain. The Shelter in Shanghai was an unique bar to hang out with friends, with Jianghuai and Asky. Not too shining decoration made as BonBon, it was refurnished from the real shelter underground to prevent the air-strike here if happens.

Actually, it was not too freezing anyway as supposed to be since it's underground, however, that night, the music was quite fair from my taste. Mandarin rock, Tahiti and brazil music, crazy Japanese shouting techno... By the way, the people there were really in a quite good mood with the live bands by holding the alchols while dancing all night.

On the next day, it was a trip to Hangzhou, cherry blossoms around West lake, though it was windy at that moment, people were really enjoying the green willows and pink cherry blossoms, which under the Japanese name of "Sakura". Music fountain was amazing, like a live show of symphony during the night. Walking down the street, the DQ or the KFC was definitely a good place to get some tasty icecream while I can't believe DQ has been so popular in every cities here because that night, the milk in DQ was out of supplies due to the popularity of the icecreams. 

Today, it's time to get back to work, busy Monday and unforgettable yesterday.

The photo was taken around the West Lake.

Yang Shan Island at 9:27 PM

After a long while of raining, finally it turns to be a beautiful sunshine weekend.

With the sunshine mood, I packed all my staff heading toward the island on the East Sea of China, which is called "Yang Shan". Meanwhile, this island has just been developed a couple of years ago with the world's largest port located there, under the name of "Yang Shan Deepwater Port". It connects the mainland Shanghai with the world's longest cross sea bridge called (Donghai Bridge, or East Sea Grand Bridge, with 37km long).

Smile only towards sunshine, not a single rain. On the way, full of giant shipping companies' containers like MSK, MSC, YangMing and N&P etc. With the bliss of the wind, climbing the island's hill was fun. Not a single one around me has suggested me to travel this island in the winter/spring time. However, I stick to my original plan and it was proved a perfect journey.

Blue's back, together with instant pure mind or feeling: Today's blog is the only exception that I am uploading multiple photos since the view around this island was so breathtaking, no worse than the view when I walked by in Helsinki.

Tomorrow, there's another working week begin. Hope John everything goes well with his presentation in Singapore, also expecting Chander and Bhatia sir would come after then.

Good night everyone, it was a tired and relaxed weekend, however, with breathtaking memories.

Schlager at 12:27 AM

"Schlager (German Schlager, literally "hitter" or, more loosely translated, "a hit") is a style of popular music that is prevalent in Central and Northern Europe, in particular Sweden, Switzerland, Austria and Germany, but also to a lesser extent in Baltic States, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Typical schlager tracks are either sweet, highly sentimental ballads with a simple, catchy melody or light pop tunes. Lyrics typically center on love, relationships and feelings. The northern variant of schlager, notably in Finland, has taken elements from Nordic and Slavic folk songs, with texts tending towards melancholic and elegiac themes. Musically the Schlager has some similarities to other styles like Easy Listening-Music." - Cited from wikipedia.

Above is the definition of "Schlager". The first time I really know Schlager was a night turning on the winamp agent to listen to "Schlagerhoelle" while falling sleep. Actually, that night, it was with a quite pleasant dream, after that, I almost slept with this kind of easy-listening songs.

When I told these to my German friends, and they told me a large part of local middle aged people are still big fans right now to Schlager songs while they turned on them loud in the cars on the way. It's interesting that I can fall asleep so sweetly with this type of songs while they can drive so crazily with them.

Today, after gym and sauna, I turned on again, and searched the related information on wikipedia and found the area where Schlager are popular, finally turned out to be Finland, Sweden, Germany and east Europe mostly. And more importantly, those places where Schlagers are popular are exactly the same as my favourite places to be, and the people from those areas are the nicest ones based on my experience. Suddenly more, it's amazing Eurovision Song Contest each year are largely based on this genre, e.g. Hero, by Charlotte Perrelli from Sweden in 2008.

Meanwhile I am a big either Schlager and Eurovision fan, which has proven again of my music taste is clearly oriented to this style largely. However, there are also some others I appreciate much like Finnish heavy rocks (Nightwish), Smooth Jazz, Indian dance music (Bollywood), Nightclubs Dance music (Scandinavian hits most). 

Well, time to go to sleep again. Before that, let's say a word about last weekend:

It was sunshine after so many weeks' rain, I was quite happy enjoying cycling the downtown of Shanghai by listening Schlager and Vibe fm list in my ipod (Sorry, Schalger again :P). 

The Chinese Barber's cost is only 1 euro for each time which has kept my hair so short all the time not like in the other places before.

Good night, again comes sweet dream with my enjoyable Schlager.

The attached photo was a shot I took on the way of the view of Shanghai residential area which is called"Zhongyuan".

Deception at 12:17 AM

Another weekend has come.
Friday, Asky asked me out to SASHA bar, which address is No.12, Dong Ping Lu, crossed with Heng Shan Lu. A bar or more exactly called as a restaurant, embedded in a old fashioned Shanghai house which is similar to where I am living, also downtown. With his friends, black beer, some conversation, then it was the full list for the first half part of the Friday night.
After that, it was supposed to go to nightclubs for dancing if Ryan could join us, however, I have tried all my day to contact him, just he lost...so the final way we can do is going to KTV Holedi, for karaoke. I was totally a listener instead of a singer, moreover, I was only a fan of music like Eurovision, Rocks, European pop (Nordic and Eastern), Dance music and Smooth jazz, not too much of them can be sung out except some pops. So once with those Asky's "friends", I can do nothing but listening by chewing the gum...
There's some stories happened finally: In the reserved room, Asky and another audio maker guy were calling each other best friends, however, afterwards, when we were trying to go home, something unpleasant happend with him: His "supposed to be" girlfriend was grabbed my his best friend, the audio maker. While dropped Asky on the 3am Shanghai cold windy street with no one around by sending Asky's girlfriend back home, definitely Asky was pissed off, I was really sorry for him. There's one thing I can tell from the audio maker, he made a really perfect deception by disguising his real purpose in front all of us.
This is China, there's much more to discover by myself, and be careful.

Today's photo was taken at home, after coming back from KTV, Chinese men's dress on.

Weekend at 11:44 PM

Another weekend has been passed.
However, I generally found the weekend didn't belong to me. Saturday, after some work, 2 meetings was held for my former high school classmates, and after that, I firstly need to go to my elder cousin's home to meet with my uncle who has been in the States for 9 years while this is the first time I meet him from the age when I was 12. Since he brought back one laptop from the States for my younger cousin who already had 2 laptops and 2 desktops already (I really don't understand why he wanna so many computers, moreover most of them are updated with time), so I was trying to fix up the language settings to add one Chinese language into system. However, it failed because of the system protection from Windows Vista Home premium.
Next day, I stayed with my younger cousin who was the college freshman major in computer science. No wonder our Sunday activity was spending on the PC LAN games at his new house. After all, I finally got back could have some rest, and one more wonder radio station checked out and bookmarked which is called VIBE FM - Dancefloor radio ( The slogan for this radio is "better than sex" ), haha....it was interesting. Though the slogan maybe 100 percent true, yet the music was totally enjoyable with my highly equipped audio system at home, comparable with some nightclubs...
Next week is the start of March... still many to handle, let's keep write this blog to track further of my life.
Today's shot is the plant in our office, not sure about the English name, but it's neat and nice.

Management at 12:40 AM

Today is Friday, continued to rain.
Casual Friday is not casual at all. All day long has been hooked up with HSBC, one order from the operation department, macro strategy discussion with Jacky, HR and admin related. If you seperate them, none of them is difficult, however, once you meet up with them all, I was so eager that I could seperate myself to several operational units to fill those different tasks at one time so that I don't need to go to office to finish the ones left...
PC system for the orders' processing was definitely needed which could help to organise all the information, and the good news is that the operation executive will join next week while my work could be a little bit of easier, cheers. However, I was enjoying doing the opereational work as well as all.
I didn't do too much tonight, just had a shower and was trying to watch "Punisher - War Zone", however, failed because it didn't attract me that much comparing the Slumdog Millionaire or The Reader while I prefer some touching stories instead of those Hollywook robot bloody.
Tomorrow, there're two meetings to go with my former good friends and go to see my uncle in the late evening, hope it will not rain so hard...

Overall, I got a much deeper understanding of management.

Russian Economy at 9:44 PM

Just has reviewed Oscar recorded show, it really cost me a long time... However, back to my interest is the global economy, today I am gonna talk something about the Russian economy based on my personal view:
Russia has been working on the economy revolution since early 90's, however, it doesn't work successfully usually. Until Putin has been the president, to reshape the reputation and international image of Russian, all Putin needs is a highly efficient economy development plan.
However, Russia has adopted a plan with highly risk: By exporting highly priced energy, raw materials and comparatively low cost foreign loans to make further development to the whole Russian nation.
From the beginning, everything went on well with the highly priced energy and material, so most of the largest companies in Russia had made business plan based on that assumption which is energy price could stay forever, and with that Russia could absorb the whole world's wealth as much as possible. So under this situation, the Russian companies started to take loans to expand their infrastructure to make further productions and exportation of the energy and material products. At that moment, the interest rate of borrowing money from the Russian government was over 13%, while if choosing take loans from global investment banks, it only cost 2% around.
So most of the companies including Russian national gas, oil, steel companies took loans from the global investment banks, with the mortgage of their real properties and over-priced stock shares. And they thought if the price of their stock continues to boom, the less cost to pay back the loan, but, only, only if the energy price continues to soar or stay on a high level which like over 100 USD per barrel of crude oil.
But after late 2008, the energy price started to drop hysterically while their stock prices was shrinking to 30% at the same time, more importantly, the investment banks started to ask to loans back. What a poor situation for Russia... they don't have money or stock to pay back, not enough revenue either because of the under USD 50 per barrel crude oil, so what they could pay back is their only left properties, which means, years' of the Russian people's effort and work has been given to investment bank as the 2009's gift.
Mr.Putin was trying to make some effort to save this situation of the Nation's largest companies' gonna went to investment banks, however, there were not enough, at 25% could be saved even with the whole Russian' accumulated wealth.
All of these analysis was based on my personal view, from Yangtsefly, only could be your reference.
It has been raining all day long, and today the office started to become more and more perfect, with a panaroma shot of our office attached and this series was made on Chander sir' request and I was really enjoying making this for our company. And the photo attached in the blog is the one I took after office work, our office building under the shadow of the moon.

　

Yes Man at 1:14 AM

Another nice show has been followed up today during the late evening.
It has been raining all day long which has caused me somehow feeling upset, or more exactly, the feeling was totally inhibited. However, during the morning it was everything going on well, at least I have done a lot of financial works for the company successfully. Asky and I went to another meeting with BTL today, after that, the whole day was totally in the continuous rain.
Back home, no gym today, watched some economics new both domestically and internationally, moreover, another wonderful show has been reviewed today which is called "Yes Man". It was a encourages and hilarious show, and the most important thing I discover from that is the attitude towards life should be better positive in most of the time, only through which, our life could always lead to some amazing paths which we could never imagine.

Oscar at 12:55 AM

Congratulation to Slumdog Millionaire, with 8 awards in this year's Oscar (Academy award).
I have watched this movie on the last day of 2008, I was expecting so much this nice show to win some prizes the moment I watched it. Finally, the result was totally satisfied with numerous Golden Globe awards and Academy Awards. Moreover, this year's the Reader has also got one award and this is the only year I have watched most of the prized shows before the results comes out.
Well, back to my life, it was raining all day long, to open one taxes reporting account here in Shanghai for a company is really a hard work because of the bureaucracy here caused the low efficiency. I really hope the system here could be clean and the people could be responsible for their jobs as in Northern Europe, however, I think this needs a good social benefit system to support, until now, it's still a dream to a such large populated country.
Shanghai's weather is just like the Mumbai's, raining all day long, comparing to these two cities, I really preferred Delhi and Beijing, which are inland weather, dry and warm... hehe, it's just my personal preference...
Finally , got go to sleep now and it's freshing to update my layout of the blog today...

Today's photo was taken in 2007, Helsinki, by the seaside.

Tianzifang at 12:47 AM

This is the name for region of serious bars in the southern Shanghai, on the Tai Kang Lu.

It was Friday again, after a whole week's work, I went to the bar with my collegue. It was a curvy street, European style, kind of like the street I passed before in Stockholm. We waited in front of Silver World to wait for the other people to show up and we finally chose one bar called "UP'S" under Asky's suggestion.

It was a bar full of the songs I enjoyed in the early 2007, which was the right time I was in Helsinki. Say It Right, Sweet Escape, Umbrella...I also shared my stories with other people on the table about Scandinavia and Southern Asia....with the shining candles and soft sofa, it was relaxed...Pity I didn't take my camera, because my Canon doesn't work well during the night.

There's one thing I was not quite understanding about the "all Chinese party": Sometimes when it's coming to the climax for the whole meeting, it was the show of everyone's taking turns to tell erotic jokes...which was only some kind of restricted fun...Still, I prefer dance, music and drink, which are under the name of relax in a more natural way.

China's mental world is changing, it's booming, but without support.

The photo was taken in Itakeskus, Helsinki, Apr.2007, for the memory of all in Helsinki- free mind better than the wrong way.

Rain at 11:19 PM

It started to rain, as well as become more chilling.

From yesterday to today, I was devoting on the works, still, in the establishment stage of our new office. This photo was taken on the way out side of HSBC Tower, Lujiazui, the time I finished the reporting and financial papers works. For the days going on, I had a meeting with one of the largest forwarding company with Asky and also one dinner with him. It was a really spicy dinner which I was not quite that of fan, however, he really did enjoy those Western Chinese spicy food. The weather became more chilling and rainy after that, I showered badly in the rain. Lucky I finished the shower, and sit in front of my laptop's screen... Sleeping time again, best wishes for tomorrrow.

Today's photo was taken in Dalian, China. Aug.2007. For the memory of Northern China's sunshine and beach.

View at 6:05 PM

View from the window, on Sunday.
After a whole day's work, it's time to have a little bit of small relax: gym + DQ + food + rest is the theme for the very first Sunday. And this shot was taken from my window to get a memory for these days... This is the building (left one) called Plaza 66, 54th tallest building in the world. Every night when I layed on my pillow, it's just in the right view. However, I like to watch the skyscrapers, but I still perfer to live in the older fashioned house since it's more easily communicated, safe and interactive with the rest of the society.
And I was trying to watch a US cartoon, I almost felt it boring. I think US can only make a normal 3D cartoon, if it's coming to the 2D market, Japan definitely contribute more to the major market. East and West, both have their own advantages, just depends on how you appreciate at them.

Valentines' Day at 11:55 PM

After the whole day, it's beyond my expectation.
However, after last night's late drink, dance and BBQ, without fully recovery I was working in the office for the whole afternoon. The day's getting raining and cold, as well as with my heart got desperate.
But something unexpectedly happened, and which left me for a unforgettable memory. From office to Jing An Temple food street, from bike to home, I had a great time.
Well, just be here at that last moment of V Day and hope everyone had a great time.
Close, because I am too tired right now, after a whole week's distortion. Night!
Today's photo was taken in Indian Gate, New Delhi, India, Aug.2008.

Windows & BonBon at 2:56 AM

It was ever the most wonderful time to be with friends in Shanghai during the night time. After our whole week's heavy work, Asky and I went to have dinner in Burger King together. A little bit while after, it started to be windy and raining. However, it is Friday, it's the time to have some relax. So we firstly went to a quite quiet bar which is called Windows bar, CNY 10 for each beer, near my home on Nan Jing Xi Lu. And we went to another bar called BonBon on the crosssection of Huai Hai Lu and Heng Shan Lu, next to MT, the one I, Chander Sir, Mr.Jai and Mr.Bhatia went before. The happiest dancing time was there, dancing with friends was always great fun. But since the time when I came back from Finland, I never had this fun ever again. Right now, I am feeling so satisfied, to spend the Valentines' morning, with another 2 singles. Haha, BBQ after that, then we said goodbye. The life is becoming more interesting than before in Shanghai.

Today's photo was taken in Bird Nest, Dec.2008. Yangtsefly.

Opening at 12:31 AM

After a long time's work, it's the real time for our company to open. The office has been more and more operational day by day, so after Mr.Bhatia and Chander Sir's 3 days visit, our company has been on the way to the glorious. Here attaches the photo of TCI Global Shanghai Co. Ltd., from the left to right, the people are Yang (me), Jacky, Chander Sir, Asky, Sherry, John and Mr.Bhatia. This blog is for remembering these days' tough work. However, I think the more demanding tasks are coming after. So let's see what we can do better for everyday.

There's one more think about the mail servers related. Everyone in our office was originally trying to use outlook, however, based on my research, I thought Windows Live Mail could be better as the offline server could save me a lot of work to read emails when I am not in the internet available area. However, that means I need to quit using Gmail, which I am lingering on that. But, finally, there was a good news, through my search online, I have found gmail has the offline version, which is just in the lab stage. So I followed the instruction online, downloaded google gears and then set the gmail offline. Right now, it works really well. Cool, I could stay with gmail for another long time. Cheers!

Midnight at 11:46 PM

Gosh! I have to sleep in the office tonight.
After a whole day's busy schedule, I worked late into midnight in the office which is 23.00pm, ready to go back home. The time when I trying to lock the office's door, I suddenly found something: I didn't have the key! which means, to my responsibility, I have to stay here for the whole night until next morning GM comes! This is the first time I will try to sleep in the office, and I am so scared of this 30 floors' office building, since I am the only one in this block...
Okay, let's turn on all the light, and write my blog here and now. The good thing is that I have fixed all the internet and telephone connection in the office through whole night's work. Asky just stayed with me and he left at 10.30pm, and I really thank him stayed such late time with me. However, because of the meeting held by GM, he was trying to pass the key to me, but finally he just forgot to give it, maybe distracted by our ambitious plan...which caused me this embarrassed night.
I am dreaming of hot waters and my soft bed...:(
Today's photo was taken during Summer Olympic XXIX, Beijing, China.
However, today was a memorable day, 2nd day of CEO and director arrives. I have cleared up the morning interviews, noon meetings, and afternoon clients' tour as well as the night technology related fixation. More importantly, the over night stay in this office building....
God bless me...Amen...

The Reader at 10:39 PM

Bitte halten Sie Ihre Tränen, Junge.
The Reader, ein heikles und berührte Film.
Selbst nach so vielen Jahrzehnten, der Junge noch nicht vergessen, seiner Liebe aus seiner Jugend.
Die Frau, scheint grausam, aber sie ist stark, stark in ihrer Persönlichkeit, in ihrer Verantwortung und in ihrem Selbst-respectiveness.
Dies ist die Liebe der beiden halten, das ist die Liebe halten Sie zerreißen.
Die wahre Liebe ist wirklich nicht beurteilen, wie lange sein kann, kann es nur danach beurteilt werden, wie tief sie schneiden in das Gefühl, im Leben.
The sex is never the destination, however, the influence or the story of one's life based on it, can really be something.
Es ist nicht etwas, was ich wählen kann, ist es nur etwas, was ich zu bewältigen haben.
Ich hoffe, Sie können wieder auf meine Arme, es ist nie zu spät, aber es ist einfach besser, lassen Sie es bleiben, für immer ohne Ende.
Wenn Sonnenschein können genteelly lag auf der grünen Burg wieder, der Traum wäre Lächeln. Kommentare von Yangtsefly

The photo is was the poster of the film, not created by me.

Films at 11:39 PM

There are always some beautiful memories from the films in mind, I believe the ones can be recalled are definitely worthy to be awarded. Well, here I am gonna list some films that usually ignored by most of the people while I think they are worthy to watch. I think the reason they failed from the top hits are just because they didn't pay enough on marketing like most of the Hollywood film, however, I think a good film doesn't have any connection with the marketing barget, it only depends on its own, if it's good, sooner or later, people will find the truth. So, let's make it simple, here are my shows:

1.Slumdog Millionaire (2008)
The ever touched and real film I have ever seen. The whole background is based in India, I was attracted by its fluent and wonderful plots, its reality and its touching story. The love story happend in Mumbai Rail Station are always in my mind. This is the only film I watched 3 times.

2.Beyond Rangoon (1995)
It was an incredible story happened in South-East Asia, the city called Rangoon. The soundtrack was perfectly made and the story was also catching.

3.Bangkok Dangerous (2008)
Cage's show, like usual, cool style and insightful theme, there's another one called War Inc. is also quite nice to watch.

4.Transsiberia (2008)
The train I am planning to take one day, however, with the story happened like that, it was a little bit of scary. Russian is needed if anyone want to take this train: Moscow-Beijing.

5.Dostana (2008)
Typical Bollywood film with shining colors and happy mood, of course, traditional Indian dance will never be absent.

Since it's already 0.00am in the midnight, I don't have enough time to write anymore, tomorrow there's a load of things need me to finish, so I just stop now with 3 blogs today to give a good start. Finally, here I end this blog with the photo of mine, which was taken in Watercube, Beijing, Dec.2008.

Balances & Choices at 10:49 PM

When we are facing against the boundless sea as you can easily fall into the deep meditation, like in the photo on left, which was I had my summer trip in Dalian, China.
Our life is full of choices and balances, the same to mine. Choices are the facts while balances are the actions and solutions to any of the problem.
Firstly let's say about economy, if it's over capitalization, or we can say marketlization, which will finally lead to country or region occupied by the stronger from outside, which we can tell from the example of Thailand during the 1997 financial crisis. On the other hand, if it's over conservation and restricted like N.Korea, the people from outside of the capital city are suffering from starving. Choices are how capitalized you wanna be, solutions are to balance: the best example are UK government are nationalizing the banks while this was not supposed to happen in such a capitalized country. Well, I think it's none of my interests to talk about Politics in public, just sometimes, I cared about economics, but never over cared. So I decide to talk them as less as possible if it's mixed with Politics in case my blog get blocked.
It's also a quite big choice to me whether should I write my blog here superficially or truthfully, if I open my mind staging on the serface, it's like the pure rice without any dishes which is non-tasteable, if I tell every secret or real thought of mine here in the public, I will also annoy someones around me or even sb. no relationship with me. So I decide to balance, and try my best to make this small world as sincere and interesting as possible. At least, to someone who really cares about me.
Think it more carefully, from your work, your personal dating life, your school life and your social life, balances and choices are everywhere, it's exactly like the traditional "Yin-Yang (Tai Ji)" pattern while you can see that the whole universe is full of balances, I am not gonna cite this graph here simply to keep my blog in a unique style (one photo in one post).
So right now, today, it's Feb.02, 2008, our new company TCI Global Shanghai Co.Ltd. just newly established and open, I still left a numerous tasks to accomplish before it's fully operational, HR, Finance, Purchase, Business related...I really hope I can manage everything like the outstanding ones from the show "Apprentice". It's a pity that this show be back with Season 8 in March, I can't wait anymore to see the celebrity Apprentice II.

Espoo at 10:19 PM

Espoo is definitely a wonderful place for camping, as long as you can see this very first photo of my blog, you can imagine how I enjoyed those beautiful moments living with fresh air, green forest, tranquility and peace, however, though sometimes a little bit of lonely.

Well, here is just a trial post of my newly start-up blog which named with Yangtsefly.

Why it's named as this Yangtsefly? Even if you search on google or wikipedia, probably you still couldn't find a perfect answer. Be patient, let me explain in a simple way: Yangtse stands for Yangtse River in China, as my mom was born in the west end of this river, my dad's east, along with my first name Yang, I named this blog starting with it. Fly, hmm, long story, everyone could tell they ever have a dream, someones are exactly as mine while you can see the fly superpower from the popular show "Heroes", so that it is, my dream is to fly by whatever ways. However, taking the airplane doesn't count, so I am still working on this, not sure I could successful or not.

Finally, let's end this blog shortly while I am gonna start the next one to get into more deeper inside of my mind.
