Gongxi, gongxi.

Welcome.......and my weekend ranting
I have some new friends or readers coming into my blog (a bit sad is that I cannot update it regularly or as much as I want to, as it is blocked in China, hence I can only write when i am out of China). And a new friend coming in to read is Eeemee, and welcome eemee. But I am not sure what makes us wanted to use the word "stalking', that word is too serious, haha. No, you are free to read, and comment, but only when you start writing some foul language, which for an educated person like you, I do not think that would happen, haha. Welcome to comment or even write and share some articles, if you wanted too.
Talking about story (you see, when I have the time, the free time, and when internet is easily available and when my blogsite is not being blocked, I can write, as and when I think of anything at all. This is the freedom I miss in China), sometimes, when i see our people during the course of my traveling, and esp. seeing the group of newly rich chinese compatriots, I start to have some lost feelings......or sometimes, I just see all these are characters, like the one we see in a movie set, like everyone is just acting, in the stage where the world is the platform.
My mind starts wandering and wondering, and images of the people I see sometimes floating in the air. I do not know why people want to show all the things they wear, in very conspicuous manner, in other words, trying to show off that much, or people are crazy chasing for those so called branded goods, stuffs, status, materialistic things, condominiums............food in restaurant when they eat...........all those stuffs, and I began to really see and analyse myself more. And the recent house searching and moving eventually, add more to this analysis, or perhaps, also wake me up. Suddenly, I began very tired. What do we want in life? And is success only measured by these? Are all human beings looking for these because of situation pressures they are in? I do not know, perhaps, it also shows I am getting older. And two things can happen when you get older, you become more greedy and wanting more or you become more simple, and wants more simple life, but meaningful one. I think I am going and moving towards the latter (and I think all these while, I have never been the former, only that I am a bit more careful in the beginning of my career, in my spending. This "waking up" is going me good, cause I do not want to wake-up only after my death:). Anyway, it is good, actually, and now I understand what Buddhism and Buddha teaches more, and I am glad, in that manner.
I am not sure if you understood it well, and I am not sure if I know exactly what I am writing in very detailed manner, but roughly, that is the content I have in my mind, and I thought of recording it down.

Two movies
Dear Friends,
I think it will be good if you have the chance to watch these two Chinese movies (Chinese movies are going very well, and I think their story write-up and filming techniques have improved a lot and very much.
The first one is 非诚勿扰2， part 1 was recommended by me, two years ago.
I think this movie touches on something you have not seen before, in terms of content:
1) Celebrating divorce.....what a world
2) Preparing death and eulogy, before the person is dead....haha, really nice. Not sure if I have the chance to do this, but I guess it is nice, finale gathering in this world before one passes away
3) The Poem read out at the eulogy, written by a Monk/Lamma, very beautifully written.
I do not have the time to find the content now, but look for it
4) the scene, where Geyou was proposing to Shuqi, asking if he will still love and able to love when he is already too old.......
5) Short intro, from Youtube for your reference:
6) The end scene song, lyrics are also very meaningful, 最好不相见。
It goes something like this,
最好不相见，便可不相恋......最好不相爱，便可不相弃......但曾相见便相知，相见何如不见时。安得与君相诀绝，免教生死作相思......最好不相遇，便可不相聚。
The second movie is 让子弹飞，the script, the content, listen carefully, it is very challenging and exciting. You must listen very carefully what they said in the movies, only then you will enjoy it. And it is already a box office for a Chinese Movie, in China at least.
Happy watching.
Choong,

Hello From Seoul
oh dear, have been trying hard to write something, and seems a lot of problem arising, probably when you reformat your laptop, this is the consequence of that. Anyway, to make it short, a day only out of China and on the way of flying back. Just to take this opportunity to write something before it is too late. Well, busy, after back from London, and meetings and planning for my team's activities for the year, and for the first quarter of 2011, and now, it seems my activities until mid of the year is already planned. Oh dear dear, and since back until now, pretty busy with apartment searching, searching after work and during weekends, and now, in the process of moving, hopefully, by this weekend, fully. And not to mention, a terrible flu that has fallen in love with me, I am not sure what type of bugs is that, sticking to me, until now, but signs of the "love" slowly fading away, though with occasional heat is there still. Hope I recover fully soon. And talking about the new apartment, my friends, colleagues alike, are eagerly waiting for me to invite them over, well, lets see. And I have to get ready soon for my sales meeting, next week.
Meanwhile, also getting ready to be back to CNY holidays.
Until then, take care.
gongxi, gongxi.
