第一篇:对杨澜的评价
对杨澜的评价
杨澜毋庸置疑是一位优质女性的典范。她美丽、智慧、优雅、知性,开创了成功的事业,同时又拥有美好的家庭。在无数人眼中她拥有着近乎完美的人生。而杨澜却说,她的人生才刚刚开幕。
·关于成功·
成功就是能够自由地选择自己真心喜欢的事业和人,并真心为之付出,身心处于平衡的健康状态。
关于成功,杨澜这样说道,一个人要想成功的话,一个最重要的基础,就是先明白自己到底要干什么。成功不成功不是自己能够控制的,但却是能够管理的。
杨澜说,真正感人的往往并非成功本身。世人眼中的成功只有一瞬间,困境却是常态的。
杨澜认为自己取得成功的条件不外有三:第一,自信和他信;第二,遇到不公平的事有正确心态;第三,先为别人创造,建立良好的人际氛围。
我一直觉得我做到现在全靠我的意志力,我不会承认失败,在这一点,我觉得我很成功。
·关于人生·
杨澜很赞同于丹的一点看法:人生只能有方向,却无法定规划。
杨澜把生活比喻成一个等号,这个等号慢慢地会把大家拉平等,她经常告诫大家不要为一时的得失而困惑,最重要的是要确定自己的人生方向。而这个方向对她来说就是要有一份靠得住的事业一直做下去。所以今天的杨澜不管是做主持人也好,做制作人也罢,抑或是做商人,她都觉得脚下的土地是很扎实的,不会有恐慌感。
回想起当年的《正大综艺》面试,杨澜说她的优势大概就在于那种坦率的、对人生和世界都充满了好奇和勇于尝试的心态,这让她忘掉了紧张和患得患失。杨澜很喜欢电视剧《大长今》里男主角的一句话:“历史上但凡那些有成就的人都是单纯和热情的人”。如果说一个人负担很重,或是缺乏热情,很难想象他会有什么突破。
杨澜曾把人生比作热气球旅行,充满可定与不定性;人生的乐趣也是如此,全在这定与不定之间,你也永远不会知道自己究竟成功与否,享受过程才最重要。
培根说,“幸运的机会好像银河,他们作为个体是不显眼的。但作为整体却光辉灿烂。同样,一个人若具备许多细小的优良素质,最终都可能成为带来幸运的机会。”杨澜亦是如此。
·关于选择
杨澜说,她的每一次选择其实都是在挣扎的过程中做出的,外界看到的只是一个结果,这个结果之前的过程却很漫长。
面对当今社会摆在我们面前的诸多选择,杨澜认为要听自己心里的声音。当你真的想去做某件事时,你才会有热情,才会做得长久。“当你的脑子有一个非常单纯和强烈的想法在支配你的行为时,第一,你的目标会非常明确,在每一次岔道口选择的时候,都会不断地选择向这个目标靠近,这就是自己的潜意识在发挥作用;第二,你的这种强烈的意志和愿望也向四周的人散发了一种信息,这会带给你很多力量,也许你自己意识不到或是不了解这种力量有多大。但只要你这个愿望足够强烈,并且愿意为目标付出努力,那么你一定可以在自己的领域中创造出属于自己的一片天。”
谈起过往的经历,杨澜说她并不顺利。在她眼中,顺利与成功不是一回事。幸运的是她每做一件大的事最后都证明我的选择是对的。比如去美国读书,然后再从凤凰出来做阳光卫视,这些都是很大的跳跃。但在跳的时候都很不顺,现在回头看是成功的,并不证明她跳的时候没有痛苦。为什么要改变一个环境,是觉得自己的某些东西没有得到发挥,没有得到发挥肯定会痛苦。因此,每一次要改变的环境肯定是与周围不和谐的东西已经达到极限,所以每一次选择的过程都很痛苦。
·关于生活·
我不完全可以掌控自己,但是我可以合理地梳理和分派。大家一样,都需要有平衡的生活,而不能疯狂地工作。遵从身心健康的方式和节奏,我才接受。
我不喜欢被人当作榜样,相反更愿意归于平凡,我的工作也许是站在人前喧闹的,但我的心灵是守在自己身体里安宁的。
·关于赚钱·
杨澜说,糊口,仅此而已。赚钱这件事,真的想赚的时候,不一定能够赚到。我的收入已经可以让我过比较舒适的生活了,我也没有更奢侈的要求。钱要用到有意义的事情上,才是好的。中国很多事业有成的商人都是比较低调的。
其实,这种财富都是纸面价值。我在公司只是拿我作为一个主持人和制片人的收入,而我先生在公司没有盈利之前是不拿工资的,所以我不觉得这些钱会改变我个人的生活。
·关于婚姻·
“杨澜更是我最好的朋友,我们俩都庆幸在茫茫的人海中,遇上这么一个知己。”——杨澜先生吴征
幸福要靠自己,男人和女人都要为自己的幸福负责。没有完美的男人和女人。——杨澜
·关于读书·
知识积累到一定时候就会有机遇,杨澜说,是知识改变了她的命运。
杨澜表示,读书可以增加一个人的底气。“也许读过的东西有一天会全部忘掉,但正是这个忘掉的过程,塑造了一个人的知识结构和举止修养。”
·关于采访·
喜欢尝试的杨澜觉得人生像是一个陀螺,它可以转很大的圈,但着地点只有一个——这个点就是她非常热爱的电视和传媒事业,而其他的职务或头衔都是在这个基础上衍生出来的。
我不是一个特别聪明的人,每次采访前我的团队会帮我做一些前期准备,包括资料收集,但我自己一定会在之前全部阅读,我会通过做功课来弥补自己的不足。有一种状态我一直很欣慰,那就是,我在每一次采访前,都会有些兴奋,有一点点紧张。
杨澜曾经两访基辛格。“今年初我又访问了基辛格,想起自己1996年的采访,真是太小儿科了,问的问题都是八杆子打不着的,无一例外地在结尾希望人家对中国观众说几句话,你在外交事业中感到最骄傲的是什么等等:都是对任何人都可以问的问题。”6年以后的杨澜,同样是访问基辛格,问的是“1973年的赎罪日战争(中东战争)后,你也在中东有外交穿梭……”(因为访问时正值鲍威尔的中东之行),这样的问题具体、有针对性。这和“采访前做足了功课”有很大关系。采访前,杨澜阅读的是基辛格的主要外交著作等材料;采访后,基辛格对杨澜的采访是“AMAZING”(令人惊奇)。
做访谈节目至今,杨澜已经采访了200多个政界、经济界或文化界的名人。“他们都给我很大的启发。有的是人生故事有意思,有的是思想深刻——采访对于我来说,就像是‘采气’:从每个人身上,我都可以采到‘气’。” 《杨澜访谈录》的制片人郝亚兰说:“这个节目,实际上是对杨澜和被采访对象智慧的双重倚重,是杨澜和被采访对象智慧的碰撞交融。”杨澜认为,自己是一个“认真而有韧性的人”;这一点,得到了同事们的一致认同。郝亚兰说:“坦白地讲,杨澜是这个制作组里最勤奋的人。”事实上,杨澜不仅仅作为主持人出现在节目中,她对节目制作的参与是全方位的。“有时甚至是否需要一个反光板她都会提出建议;作为一个职业的主持人,她对节目的品质有很高的敏感度。”
杨澜认为,深度访谈的节目形式应该相对稳定,没有必要像娱乐节目一样三天一小变、五天一大变。
杨澜从来不认为采访有什么特别的诀窍,除了认真:“我不是每一次都有灵感,但我每一次都很认真。”采访前做一大堆的研究,目的只有一个:“我必须了解我在说什么。”而一次成功的采访,最重要的是要让被采访者知道,你明白了他在说什么,而不是把一个问题扔给他,得到答案后又接着问采访提纲上的另一个问题。“毕竟,我不是采访的主角,应该把更多的时间留给他们。”
从益智类的节目到深度访谈,杨澜认为自己的所作所为始终以文化为导向:“从家世背景到个人爱好,我的兴趣一直在文化方面,所以真的不存在什么大的跨越。”
的确也有我不喜欢的采访过程,但那不影响我们把事情说完,因为你不喜欢的也许只是一个人的说话方式,但是那绝对不会妨碍到你对一个人的尊重。对话,是人与人层面上的交流。
杨澜一直希望采访对象的每一次自由发挥,都能带给普通人最大的启示。
杨澜说:“我会一直做到观众不喜欢为止;他们不喜欢,我也不会硬跳到他们面前说:‘看我,看我’。”
第二篇:杨澜竟如此评价毛主席的功过
杨澜竟如此评价毛主席的功过
《一位平民就杨澜微博不公正评价毛主席问题,致杨澜》时代之痒与民族之痛——就杨澜微博不公正评价毛主席问题,致杨澜!杨澜微博中写道:“毛泽东去世时我才上小学二年级。当时师生都泣不成声。记得我满怀恐惧地问老师:„毛主席不在了我们会不会去做童工?‟那种全民幸福系于一身的洗脑和催眠真不可思议!不过它有多强大就有多脆弱,国门一开,神话不攻自破。” ——致杨澜女士
杨澜女士,在你没有成功之前你肯定为来自每一个角落的掌声而感动。然而今天,你不一定需要来自某个角落关注你的目光。即便如此,我还是要向你说,我今天的话,不是我个人观点,而是代表着当代中国社会的底层与你那个阶层的对话。
你走过世界,你正阔步在中国的高层次舞台上。我一直用我的双脚丈量着山乡的土地。但行为的限制并不代表思维的拘禁,我认为今天的你需要听听舞台之外的声音。毛泽东是神,是历史和现实的神。是中华民族的神,是老百姓的神,是劳动大众的神。因为他创造了民族历史上的千古神话。
今天要和你思辨的是毛主席这尊神不同于任何宗教之神,他是民族历史五千年深厚沉淀而自然浓缩的民族精魂。反动分子骂他,反华势力怕他,当代所谓的精英人士否定他,这一点都不奇怪,甚至你的否定也不新鲜。站在你当前的阶层利益上说,你也没有错,你错就错在你没有站在真正的大多数劳动大众的立场之上。什么阶级说什么话,现在看来毛主席的阶级斗争学说尤为正确。
在阶级社会中,各种思想无不打上阶级的烙印。列宁说:所谓阶级,就是根据各自利益自然形成的集团阶层。不是谁宣布没有就没有的。
当今中国社会,不是没有阶级矛盾,而是一直都有,而且十分激烈。只是被强大的政府功能覆盖了,被经济生产掩盖了。政府尽力调和着阶级矛盾,努力寻找着不同阶级利益的制衡点。国家的长治久安要求必须这样做。现代科学可以防止地面塌方,但不能阻止地底深处的地震。捂得越紧,沉默得越久,爆发的能量就越大。
毛泽东思想和毛泽东的思想是两个不同的概念,你要细心地区分。说毛泽东思想是马列主义与中国革命实践相结合的产物,如果泛泛而谈,就不得其深意。你一定读过不少书,是不是成功秘诀一类的读得多。作为当代中国的知识分子,即使读过全世界的经典,如没有读懂毛泽东思想,也不算民族精英。你的错误也是由于把毛泽东思想看成是毛泽东一个人的思想行为。毛泽东成为党的主席,一不是自封的,二不是世袭的,三不是禅让的,在艰苦卓绝的革命斗争中逐步成就了他的领袖地位。他从不想自立为王,即使是在革命最艰苦的时候,他也始终和党在一起。他也崇拜过别人,甚至服从别人的错误领导。
只是他后来发现许多的民族精英都无法承担民族大任时,他才明白必须由他自己去进行艰苦的探索。他用六年时间研读一部《论语》,然而,他没有看到封建王朝的治国经纶中有解救中华民族的有用韬略。这也只有他才具有否认这部经典的智慧。
毛主席对中国革命的贡献,你本应该比我更清楚。他的一家就有六人为革命献出了生命,他连杨开慧一并奉献给了人民。当时是四万万人口,全国有多少个家庭,这个比例你自己可以算。新中国成立后他本可以享一享太平,可朝鲜战争爆发,毛岸英就是他在错综复杂,危机四伏的国际国内大环境中,为全国人民压下的一个巨大的筹码,有多少人能做到这点?这一点你肯定不懂!邓小平说过一句扪心自问的良心话:没有毛泽东,中国革命尚在黑暗中摸索。他老人家一生都在呕心沥血,最后的日子里,床边摆满了史籍,他带着未尽的思索离开了他的人民。每当想到这就难免心寒,可有人就是要诋毁他。他一生不敛财,不为名,为的是全体百姓,所以中国的老百姓用至真至诚的朴素感情把他推到了声誉的巅峰。
他历来就反对个人崇拜,因为他不需要。是那些想得到崇拜而没有被崇拜的人在别有用心。一个超越历史和现实,洞察寰宇的领袖难道不知道那意味什么吗!这方面你为什么显得那样幼稚呢?国共的博弈,如果事前有一万个预言家,就会有一万零一个不看好GCD,国民党的失败,在很大程度上就是由于其精英高层绝大多数人利欲熏心,看不见全局。
覆巢之下岂有完卵,道理谁都懂,不懂的是如何生长一只看到未来的战略的眼睛。只看到自我利益的人必然地局限自己。蒋介石个人算盘不可谓不精,只是他算理不明。而毛主席的英明是一片,是一系列。即使可以重来一次,蒋介石也不可能战胜毛泽东。
杨澜女士,你的海外风光解说词很漂亮,但你对这个民族的深重苦难思考的不多。你本可以选择沉默,但你偏要狂言。居高声自远。要么你是有目的,要么你是被受意,否则就是你无知。你说“国门一开,神话不攻自破”,你耐心的看看网上,你就知道破还是没破。
你只是被你自己编写的童话中的肥皂泡遮蔽了眼睛,原以为你是个精致的女人,没想到这样粗略的言论。国门大开,妖魔鬼怪一同进来,旧社会沉渣泛起,黄赌毒遍地都是,封资修无处不在。潘多拉魔瓶倒空后,又装进了谁的利益。你富了,只是杨澜富了,并不代表全国人民都富了。
富人的为富不仁,正是当下仇富现象的根本原因,人民仇恨的不是富人的钱,而是富人对穷人的态度。是他们得意洋洋,耀武扬威的做派。
改革开放三十年来,经济社会的增长是有目共睹的事实,但它的伴生物过多了丑陋。当然,无论哪种社会形态,资本积累的过程都是血腥的,但作为GCD国家就应最大可能地去除它的血腥味,使其显得温馨。
杨澜女士,我先不管你的“洗脑”、“催眠”学说,就“有多么强大就有多么脆弱”拷问你:巴基斯坦前不久的军演为什么要打出毛泽东的巨幅画像?是巴基斯坦人民无知,不知道强大的毛泽东是“脆弱”的吗?如果巴基斯坦非要打中国人的画像,你认为打谁的合适?他们会接受吗?落后就要挨打,道理总不会错。
我再问你,与抗美援朝时相比,现在是进步了还是落后了呢?为什么我们的大使馆被人炸了,中国军人只能在自己家门口捶胸顿足呢?我们到底要强大到什么程度才不会挨打呢?邓老人在南海边画了一个圈,为什么到今天却圈不住南海呢?我们有今天的国力,如果又能自始至终地突出毛泽东思想,现象绝不是这样。想不战而屈人之兵绝对需要那种恢弘的气度。世界上只有一种人别人不敢随便欺侮:身强体壮而又有骨气!钱的多少不是决定因素。
杨澜女士,诋毁毛泽东不是个人问题,是民族感情问题。中央也曾说过毛主席的错误是伟大的革命领袖的错误。错误规个人,功劳规大家,这不是逻辑分裂吗?我们现在迫切需要的是尽快重建那种坚强的民族精神,而不是去诋毁谁。怀念毛泽东不是利益驱使,不会有人发奖金,这是人民感情的必然倾向,这不是正好说明了我们国家的需要吗?正因为深爱着这个民族,所以痛恨丑恶。如果我们现在不痛苦我们为什么要怀旧呢? 崇拜伟人的民族是智慧的民族,崇拜英雄的民族是勇敢的民族,崇拜明星的民族是失落的民族,崇拜金钱的民族是迷茫的民族。这是前些年流行的一则短信。如今鲜花都献给了美女,我们拿什么去献给英勇?你说,我们这个时代到底是崇拜着什么?明星被崇拜了,所以他们高唱着“盛世太平”。国际形势如此危机四伏,国内天灾人祸频频发生,他们完全是在歌舞升平中粉饰太平。中华民族到了最危险的时候!国歌让我们保持着危机意识,但仅有危机意识是不够的。必须切实的认识到,肥大真的不是强大,我们应立即进行全民健身运动,强健自己的肌肉,结实自己的筋骨,树立自己的信仰,建立自己的形象。
杨澜女士,民族利益,不能据个人得失。有一次我问一个以前地主的儿子:你热不热爱毛泽东?他说:热爱呀。我继而问:毛泽东分了你家的田地,怎么还爱呢?你猜他怎么说?他说:当地主阶级占有大量土地这种主要的生产资料的时候,就严重阻碍了生产力的发展,就必须重新分配。我万万没有想到他能用政治经济学理论来说明问题。接着他举了一连串事例来说明毛泽东的伟大。请你记住,他是一个小山沟里的普通农民,就在鄱阳湖北岸。
毛泽东不穿军装不拿枪,却是独一无二的军事家,他的诗词他的书法,他对一些事物的经典表述,等等等等,无不从另一个侧面映衬着他的领袖特质。我们的精英看不见破草开荒建基立业人的丰功伟绩,只对豪华的室内装潢赞不绝口,这未免本末倒置吧。
杨澜女士,历史要辩证地看,现实要批判地看。我们一定做错了什么,不然不会有这么多人不满。吴晓波在他的《财富与幸福》中说:“世界上没有那个国家像当下的中国,对财富有那样强烈的向往;也没有那个国家像当下的中国,财富与幸福之间存在着如此大的对立。”是呀,经济增长了,满意度反而下降了,物质发达了,幸福感反而削弱了。这就是我们时代的奇痒症。它让人找不到身上的痒处,搔不住,饶不着。又不便大喊大叫,弄得呲牙咧嘴,一脸的尴尬;严重的信仰缺失,普遍的价值错位。疯狂的道德沦丧,中华民族坚强不屈的战斗精神没有得到传承。党和国家的凝聚力下降,在现象和本质之间,我们已经蒙蔽了那双辩证的眼睛。人民大众的道德情怀和思想感情受到伤害。等等这一切,就是我们的民族之痛,这种痛使我们内心流血。可悲的是精英们视而不见,更可悲的是有的人压根儿就是浑然不知。
杨澜女士,人生要修炼的东西很多,你不要把心思都用在弄巧上。现在看来,你真的还是个童工,没有期望中的成熟。你不会是故意的吧?你是有光环的人,要有对应的政治素质。中华民族卧虎藏龙,不能轻率。我只是个普通百姓,无意去伤害你。因为仍爱着你,所以写了这些文字。不说心里不畅,写了又不知如何处置。寄给你很可能收不到,网上发了又怕有伤害。好啦,最后祝永远平安!一个思考着的平民!
第三篇:杨澜访谈
杨澜访谈
——记录这个时代的精神印迹
2013年,作为中国电视最早推出的高端访谈节目,《杨澜访谈录》即将迎来它的第十三个年头。告别2012,《杨澜访谈录》这档老牌访谈节目将进行全新改版登陆北京卫视,在每个周日晚上23点与观众见面。
在过去的十二年当中,杨澜带领她的团队走过世界上二十多个国家和地区,与六百多位不同地域、不同领域的风云人物对话。从各国政要到文化大家、从行业领袖到文体名人,从焦点新闻当事人到草根达人,这些人物的经历和故事体展现了这个时代特有的精神价值。在刚刚到来的2013年,《杨澜访谈录》将一如既往的坚持记录属于这个时代的精神印迹,寻找这个时代所具有的独特精神价值。
世界的宽度
十二年来,高端性和国际化一直是《杨澜访谈录》的节目特色。曾经对话多国政要及国家领导人,也有一些在国际政坛上曾发挥重要影响力的政治人物。栏目曾在希拉里•克林顿作为国务卿首次访华时独家专访她,也曾经就莱温斯基弹劾案追问美国前总统比尔•克林顿。在潘基文连任联合国秘书长后首次访华时对其进行了访问。在与这些“大人物”的对话中,《杨澜访谈录》以国际化的视角试图展现世界的宽度,并且通过犀利的问答和话题的锐度,折射出一个个特有的历史瞬间。
理性的深度
《杨澜访谈录》也曾经就重大历史事件制作系列专题节目。2002年正值中美建交40周年之际采访了美国前国务卿基辛格,就中美关系的“破冰之旅”进行历史的揭秘。在建国60周年之际制作世界看东方系列节目,走访了七位国际政要,通过他们的口述从不同的角度来点评中国社会发生的巨大变迁。
面对这些在国际政治舞台上颇具影响力的大人物,杨澜和她的团队并没有在访谈中止于中美关系、中英关系等宏大叙事的话题。经过策划,“杨访”团队将对这一组大人物的访谈以时事热点为经度,以历史纵深为纬度,从亲历者提供的鲜为人知的事实真相中还原出历史流变的全景文本,打造了一组极具爆发力的独家深度系列访谈——世界看东方。这样的编排超越了与单个嘉宾的所谓重磅对话,梳理出思辨的逻辑,在大场面的背后,体现的是“杨访”理性的深度。
人性的温度
2011年,李亚鹏与王菲携手做客《杨澜访谈录》,这是五年来他们首次共同受访,被问及踏入这几年的感受,向来少言的王菲很快地给出了两个词:踏实、安逸。
“杨访”团队呈现给观众的,是与每一位嘉宾充满人性温度的细节互动。在对张海迪的访谈中,节目临近尾声时,杨澜提了这样一个问题:“海伦•凯勒曾经写过一篇文章,《假如我有三天光明》,假如你能够行走呢,你的愿望是什么?”
张海迪的回答平实而又真切:“我希望我也能够像很多的女性一样,在学校门口等等我的孩子。他老远地跑过来说,‘妈妈’。我会搂着他肩膀说,‘儿子,今天怎么样?’”
2012年,《杨澜访谈录》团队在北戴河对王蒙的采访进行了将近两个小时,杨澜问到他对中国未来的担忧时,王蒙说,“我并不那么悲观,我觉得我们今天有可能把事情做得更好”。
《杨澜访谈录》的团队锐意求新,新的一年,全新的改版,不同的视角,我们试图在这个瞬息万变的信息潮流中为您捕捉重大新闻事件的焦点人物,在第一时间和新闻当事人近距离独家对话。我们不仅一如既往的关注变革时代的风云人物,我们也会更为重视、努力寻找散发光彩的“小人物”;我们既要紧跟新闻事件,我们也关注被大众媒体忽略的有故事的“默默无闻”的人们;我们既聚焦个人的精神内核,但我们更关注他是否代表了时代的精神价值。
2013年,《杨澜访谈录》栏目改版后时长将从原来的23分钟增加到35分钟,将会呈现出更多睿智的时代对话。栏目相信每个独立而平凡的个体都有一种推动社会进步的力量,用自己的思想、言论和行为为这个时代留下难以磨灭的印迹。我们更期待能找到那些闪耀着时代精神价值的人们,和观众一起找寻那些为时代留下印迹的人物。2013,让我们一起同行!

yang lan: the generation thats remaking china 杨澜:重塑中国的一代
the night before i was heading for scotland, i was invited to host the final of chinas 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, im going to scotland the next day.she sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in chinese.[chinese:送你葱] so its 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 didnt 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--its 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 didnt 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.我这个年代的人是幸运的我们目睹并参与了中国历史性的变化.在过去的二,三十年里中国
发生了很多变化.我还记得1990年的时候.我刚好读完大学,我当时申请了一个营销的工作地点是北京的一个五星级宾馆,这个宾馆现在还有,叫喜来登长城饭店.在被一位日本经理询问了半小时之后,他在面试要结束时说,杨小姐,你有问题要问我吗?我鼓起了勇气,镇定地问,你能不能告诉我,你们卖什么的?因为我当时完全不知道一个五星级饭店的销售部要做什么.那是我第一次走进一家五星级饭店.与此同时,我参加了由中国国家电台举办的试听会这是第一个向大众开放的试听会现场还有上千名的女大生.制作人告诉我们他们在找甜美,单纯和漂亮的新面孔.当轮到我的时候,我起身问道,为什么在电视上的女人一定要长得漂亮,甜美,单纯还要配合度高?为什么她们不能有自己的想法说自己的话?我以为我的话可能有点冒犯了评委.但我的话反而得到了他们的认同.因此我进入了第二回合,然后第三,第四.在第七回合比赛结束后,我战胜了所有的选手.我也因此在加入了黄金档的一个节目.你也许不敢相信,这个节目是中国第一个允许主持人表达他们自己的想法他们不需要念之前写好的稿.(掌声)我当时每周的观众人数达到200-300万.所以我今天的话题是关于年轻一代通过社交媒体的平台来认识他们.首先,他们是谁?长得什么样?照片上的女孩叫郭美美20岁,很漂亮.在她的微博上,她炫耀了自己的名牌包,衣服,还有车在她的微博上,微博是中国版的twitter.她还说自己是商会红十字会在商会的一名经理。她没有想到她的举动引起了大众的敏感导致了一场全国性的质问,差一点变成一场针对红十字会的骚乱.这场争论非常激烈以至于红十字会开了一场记者会来澄清郭美美事件,该事件也因此被调查.现今为止,公众已知道郭美美给自己捏造了红十字会经理的职位也许是因为她喜欢慈善二字.她的那些奢侈品是男朋友送的礼物她的男友之前是一名董事会成员在商会红十字会下属的一个部门工作.这个解释起来有点困难.尽管如此,公众愤怒仍未平息.热论还在进行中.这个事件说明了民众对政府机构或是政府所支持的机构的不信任,而这些机构在过去都不够透明.这个事件也说明了社交网站的力量和影响.微博就是个很好的例子.微博在2010年兴起,访客人数翻倍浏览时间更是之前的三倍.单是新浪网,一个主要的新闻网站,就有超过1.4亿的微博用户.腾讯网,2亿.有最多人关注的用户不是我是个电影女演员,她有超过九百五十万的跟随者,网上的叫法是粉丝.大约有80%的微博用户都是年轻人,年龄在30岁以下.大家应该都知道传统媒体依然由政府控制,社交网站提供了一个平台让大家可以表达自己的不满.因为其它的平台不多,来自社交网站的激愤有时可以变得非常强烈,非常活跃甚至带有暴力.通过微博,我们可以进一步地了解在中国年轻的一代.但他们到底有什么不同之处?第一,他们大部分是80后和90后,出生在一胎化政策的年代.因为有了选择性的流产很多家长选择要男不要女,后果就是现今男人的数量超出女人数量的3千万.这个差别让社会存在一种潜在危险,但没人敢确定;因为我们生活在一个全球化的世界,男生们可以到其它国家找女友.年轻人里的大多数都受过不错的教育.中国这一代的文盲人数少于百分之一.在城市里,有80%的学生上大学.但他们面对的是一个在变化的中国今年,年龄超过65的人口已经达到百分之7点几,到2030年人口老化会达到15%.大家也许知道我们的传统是年轻的这一代有义务供养老的一代,在他们生病时候照顾他们.这意味着已成家的年轻人将需要供养4位父母他们的预期寿命是73岁.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 starting salary 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 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 america would only cost a couple five years to earn, but in china its 30 to 40 years with the skyrocketing real estate price.年轻一代的日子不是那么好过.大学毕业生的供应超过需求.在城市里,大学毕业生的起薪大约在400美金一个月,但平均的房屋每月租金超过500美金.那怎么办呢?他们只能一起住挤在一个狭小的空间里就为了省钱他们称自己为蚁族.至于那些打算结婚还要买房的人,他们认识到自己要打30-40年的工才能买得起一套住房.美国的比例是一对夫妻5年的薪水可买一套房,但在中国需要30-40年因为房价的高涨.在两亿的离乡打工族中,60%是年轻人.他们觉得自己有点被夹在城市和乡村之间.他们大多数都不想回农村,但在城市他们没有归属感.他们的工作时间长薪水却相对较少,社会福利也不多.很多因素都会影响他们像失业,通货膨胀,银行贷款政策紧缩,人民币升值,或是欧美国家对中国产品需求的下降.去年,一场悲剧在中国南方的设备生产工厂发生了:13名工人年纪在20岁左右自杀,就像是一场传染病一样.只是死亡原因不同.整个事件引起了社会的关注.大家开始关心这些工人身体和心理上的孤单.这些图表显示一个更概括的社会状况.第一个是恩格尔系数,它解释了每天生活必需的花费的百分比在过去的10年内,从家庭收入的角度来看,已经下降到37%.但是在过去的两年里,这个比例上涨到39%,这说明了生活花费在上升.吉尼系数显示已经过了0.4的警戒线.现在是0.5比美国还差说明的收入不平等.你能看到整个社会都感到沮丧因为他们失去了一部分的流动性.同时,针对富人和有权利人士的怨恨与憎恨开始蔓延.所以各种对腐败或是官商勾结的指控都可造成社会的谴责甚至**.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 internet, people cry 篇二:杨澜英语演讲

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 didnt 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--its 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 didnt 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.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 beijings bidding for the olympic games.i was representing the shanghai expo.i saw china embracing the world and vice versa.but then sometimes im thinking, what are todays 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 making a living is not that easy for young people.college graduates are not in short supply.in urban areas, college graduates find the starting salary is about 400 u.s.dollars a month, while the average rent is above $500.so what do they do?

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 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.杨澜ted演讲:重塑中国的一代 中文演讲稿

杨澜TED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] 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 sales department was about in a 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 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.Sina.com, 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 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 to college.But 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 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 starting salary 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 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 America would 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 networks they have learned in the cities, with the assistance of the Internet, 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 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 0.4.Now it's 0.5--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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
