4、hilarious.來蘇格蘭(做TED講演)的前夜,我被邀請(qǐng)去上海做”中國(guó)達(dá)人秀“決賽的評(píng)委。在裝有八萬現(xiàn)場(chǎng)觀眾的演播廳里,在臺(tái)上的表演嘉賓居然是(來自蘇格蘭的,因參加英國(guó)達(dá)人秀走紅的)蘇珊大媽(SusanBoyle)。我告訴她,“我明天就要啟程去蘇格蘭?!彼煤軇?dòng)聽,還對(duì)觀眾說了幾句中文,她并沒有說簡(jiǎn)單的”你好“或者”謝謝“,她說的是——“送你蔥”(SongNiCong)。為什么?這句話其實(shí)來源于中國(guó)版的“蘇珊大媽”——一位五十歲的以賣菜為生,卻對(duì)西方歌劇有出奇愛好的上海中年婦女(蔡洪平)。這位中國(guó)的蘇珊大媽

7、tpointofview.Youmayhavethechancetomakeadifference.我想SusanBoyle和這位上海的買菜農(nóng)婦的確屬于人群中的少數(shù)。她們是最不可能在演藝界成功的,而她們的勇氣和才華讓她們成功了,這個(gè)節(jié)目和舞臺(tái)給予了她們一個(gè)實(shí)現(xiàn)個(gè)人夢(mèng)想的機(jī)會(huì)。這樣看來,與眾不同好像沒有那么難。從不同的方面審視,我們每個(gè)人都是不同的。但是我想,與眾不同是一件好事,因?yàn)槟愦砹瞬灰粯拥挠^點(diǎn),你擁有了做改變的機(jī)會(huì)。Mygenerationhasbeenveryfortunatetowitnessandp
