杨澜ted英文演讲

In Ireland the night before, I was invited to chair the China's got talent at Shanghai stadium and eighty thousand spectators.

Guewho is the guest performers? -- Susan boyle. I told her," I'm going to Ireland." Her voice sounds like. She also can speak some chinese.

" Send your onion." This is" Hello, thank you " and the daily language. This group of word translation is free to you are green, why she should want to say this? Because this is the Chinese version of Susan's famous lyrics.

The fifties aunt in Shanghai to sell vegetables for a living. She likes Western opera, but she didn't know any English, so she gave her name to fill the Chinese vegetables do lyric. When she was in the stadium sang Nessun DORMA 's last words, she sang " send you onions". Susan Boyle and his eighty thousand audience singing along to " send you onion", more interesting scenes.

I think Susan Boyle and the Shanghai vegetable trading are unusual. In the industry the entertainment circle, they are most unlikely to succeed, but their courage and talent to make them successful. The show, a platform to realize their dream of the stage.

Out of the ordinary is not difficult, from a different point of view we are not the same. I think the out of the ordinary is good, because you have a different view, it gives you the opportunity to produce different effects.

Our generation has witnessed and participated in the past twenty or thirty years China's historic transition.

I remember in the age of ninety, had just graduated from the university I had applied for a Stars Hotel in Beijing five sales department work. In Japan the manager one and a half hour interview, he finally said:" MiYang, you have any questions to ask me?" I summon up courage to compose myself, then asked:" can you tell me what sales sales department?" I for the five Stars Hotel sales responsibilities at all feel at a loss. It was my first day in the five Stars Hotel.

At the same time, I and thousands of university female students participated in a CCTV held there was no parallel in history. The open selection. The producer told us they want to find a cute, innocent, beautiful new faces. When it was my turn, I stood up and said," why girls on TV must be beautiful, sweet, innocent, like a vase? Why they cannot have their ideas, their own voice?"

I think I have offended the judges. But in fact, my speech impressed them. I have entered the second round selection, then the third round, the fourth round. After seven rounds of selection, I won. Became a national prime-time television show host.

Whether you believe it or not, it is Chinese TV program host first allowed free play rather than read a review of the draft. The number of viewers as high as two to thirty million.

A few years later, I decided to go to America to study the Columbia University. After I had my own media company, this is at the beginning of my graduation would not dare to think.

My team and I do a lot of things. Over the years, I have interviewed hundreds of people. Sometimes a young man came to me and said:" Yang Lan, you have changed my life." I am proud of.

Next we witnessed China more changes. I was involved in Beijing's bid, attended the Shanghai world expo. I see China embraces the world, world acceptance of china ... ... But sometimes I think, today's young people to pursue what? How are they different? How to create the future of China, to say a big, the future of the world?

Today I want to talk about social media on the big stage to young people.

Who are they? How are they? This is about twenty years old and beautiful girl named Jocie Guo. She in the Chinese version of twitter micro-blog off -- she has expensive handbags, clothing, car. She claimed that she was the manager of the Red Croassociation. She did not realize she stepped on a sensitive nerve, causing people to crothe credibility of the question. So intense questioning the Red Crohad to hold a preconference to clarify, and with the investigation.

At this point, we know that she made up the title, is probably thought and charity events related to face. All the luxuries are her boyfriend gave her, her boyfriend was a red crounder the chamber of Commerce Board members. This explanation is too complicated. However, the public is not buy it. This topic is always hot and streets and lanes. It reveals a lack of transparency in the government and the public government agencies generally distrust.

Micro-blog in 2010fire up. Play micro-blog who doubled, woven micro-blog is also the time of the last three times. Only the major news portal Sina micro-blog has fourteen million users. Tencent has twenty million. Come first on the list of micro-blog, not I, is a movie star, she has more than950000 fans. Approximately eighty percent of the micro-blog users are young people under the age of thirty.

As you know, traditional media is by governmental control, social media to give people a small outlet vent. Because there is no more vent channel, from social media outlet is a strong, positive, even violent.

Through the micro-blog we can better understand the Chinese young people. How they are different?

The first and most of them were born in the one-child policy implemented on century eighty or ninety time. Because many families like boys than girls, now we are young men than young women for nearly three million. This may cause social potential danger, but who knows? In this era of globalization, they can find other countries make girl friend.

Most of them accept a good education. The illiteracy rate in the generation below one percent. In the city, eighty percent children into the university.

But ageing problem also nots allow to ignore. This year's statistics show the people over the age of sixty-five or seven percent of the total population, by 2030 will reach fifteen percent, you know, in our traditional culture young people should support the old. This means that the young couple to support four of the average life expectancy of seventy-three years old. Bring home the bacon for young people is not so easy.

University graduates are not in short supply. In the city, University Graduate starting salary of about $four hundred a month, but only the rent is over $five hundred a month. This lets them do? They have to in order to save rent flat-share, crowded in the narrow room, they called themselves the ants. And for those who are going to get married and ready to buy a house for young people, they have to work for thirty to forty years to afford their first set of Residence. When the Americans only needs five years can afford, but the face of China 's high housing prices but requires thirty to forty years.

In twenty million migrant workers, sixty percent of the people are young. They were like a sandwich was caught in the middle of city and country. Most are reluctant to go back to the country, but they are in the city without a sense of belonging. Overtime work, pay, can not enjoy the social welfare. Due to inflation, monetary tightening, the impact of RMB appreciation, they produced products in Europe and the United States dropped the demand, which makes them more likely to be unemployed.

Last year, in the south of a OEM production in situ produced frightful to the ear event: Thirteen twenty years old or so workers Dutch act, one by one, the Dutch act as if infected with infectious diseases. Although their Dutch act for different reasons, but the incident caused a huge public opinion, for migrant workers in the physical, spiritual isolation, for those who return to the countryside to work, they were warmly welcomed by the local. This is because they are in the city learn the knowledge and skills, with the aid of the network, so they can create more job opportunities, promote local agricultural development level, in the ledeveloped areas to create new busineopportunities. Therefore, in the coastal region has labor shortage problem.

On the one hand look, young people have been involved in the formulation of public policy, but on the other hand, they have their own individual life need to have a little lost. China will overtake the United States as the world's first luxury consumer market, this still does not include Chinese in Europe and other parts of consumption.

But you know what? Half of consumers pay lethan $two thousand. They are not rich. They put these bags, clothes as advertised their identity and status symbol.

In a TV dating show, a girl of straightforward said she'd rather cry in BMW than smile on the bike. Of course, we have young people like to laugh, no matter in the BMW car or bicycle.

In the next photo, you can see a very popular phenomenon called" naked marriage". This is not to say that they are at the wedding dress, it is said even if there is no house, no car, diamond rings, and a grand wedding, the young couple are married for love, show their commitment.

Through social media, people do a good thing. The first picture tells us, the whole country micro-blog saw this with500 will be used for processing food for dogs to truck was found and stopped on the highway. People voluntary contributions, to send food and volunteered to stop the truck. After several hours of negotiations, five hundred stray dogs rescued.

There are people to help search for the lost child. A father in the uploaded a picture of his son. In the tens of thousands of forwarding, kids, we also adopted a micro-blog has witnessed this family reunion.

In the past two years, happineis the most popular word we hear.

Happineis not merely a personal experience and personal values, but also the environment. When thinking about this question: we really want to higher GDP at the cost of our environment?

How can we in the implementation of our social and political reform at the same time, keep the sustainability of economic growth and stability?

A system of self correction ability how to let more people for simultaneous various friction satisfaction?

I think these questions will be answered.

Our young generation to change their own but also will change the state of the nation.

Thank you.
