I love how Zhou Xun speaks. She's so clear and precise which is great for a chinese learner like me. I didn't know who she was till this video but she sounds quite smart.
Does it really matter turning the lights off? I mean that's the like the first thing people mention when they are doing the "what-I-do-to-save-the-world" talk.
Maybe it's insignificant compared to let's say driving, or factories with low energy conversion efficiency.
We need some data to break these conventional wisdom.
@Jupitroid I doubt it's cigarettes, she always had such a voice since she was young, i.e. 13, 14 yrs ago. Chinese females genrally don't smoke as much as men do. They were taught not to smoke because old values believed that smoking girls equate to bad girls.
@ wuyiting Thanks, I didn't know that. It was the same way here in the West a long time ago. Those old values probably saved a lot of lives, even if they weren't quite right sometimes. I like the new values like the ones Zhou Xun has. Be green, be healthy! :)
@Jupitroid well, you know China is a big MALE smoking country, so it doesn't really help, haha. They used to smoke everywhere inside and out. Second-hand smokers get affected more easily, as you might already knwo that. Besides, China has issues of unbalanced ratio of genders. Heard that if women are supposed to be 100, men should be less than a 100. Now, the F:M ratio is 100:116.9, certain provinces has reached a shocking 100:138.
@wuyiting Maybe the macho smoking males of China who won't let their wives have female babies will die of lung cancer and even things out. Or maybe they should stop being so macho and both problems would just go away. I think the Japanese herbivore men have it right.
@Jupitroid Yah, I guess stop being macho would solve the problem. I think they still smoke in buildings and houses, hard to kick the habit. Also, documents indicate the high ratio in males mostly were from rural areas, city people only make 30% of Chinese population. There are a lot of sexists in rural areas, for one, male are physically more capable of farming and so in rural ares. For two, feudalism root. China didnt have industrial revolution. Just invasion of Eight-Nation Alliance and WWII
@Jupitroid Japanese people have it right? what do you mean, environmental wise or in terms of smoking? They once had the worst ecosystem of post WWII industrialization and fast-paced development e.g. dead Tokyo bay, minamata disease. It took them 50+ yrs to remedy it. Also, lacking meat animals on the islands, and their belief that oil would run out, they ate healthier sans oil and sans much red meat.
I should have been clearer about that. I didn't say "Japanese people have it right." I said the Japanese "herbivore men" have it right. There are a lot of young Japanese males who call themselves "herbivore men" It means that they have no interest in pursuing women, making babies, or working at boring jobs. They are very different than their "salary men" fathers.
@Jupitroid Zhou Xun's values were not unheard of, they were just being reintroduced. China has always faced severe enviromental problems. But unlike Japan, being enviromental is just a theory widespread, but not well practiced. Turning off the lights is more of a common practice. Kids are often told not to leave the water running. Stores in China don't leave their lights on overnight. Here in Canada (where ppl take things for granted), I get annoyed when I see light left on, water left running.
@wuyiting I'm guessing that Chinese civilization was much more in balance with nature before the industrial revolution hit it. I mean, I think it would be hard to survive for thousands of years without having some kind of unity with the land. There were probably Chinese philosophers who spoke about keeping in balance with nature. I would like to find out who they were. I hope China can learn from the mistakes we in the US have made and are making.
@wuyiting: A top male fortune teller specialized in physiological reading in Hong Kong analysed women with such deep, androgynous voices as Zhou Xun's. In Chinese fortune telling, audio also provides crucial information about a person. His brief and very kind public generalisation of his reading of Miss Zhou is very interesting and obviously reserved. I find her voice interesting, but the subject of this interview terribly facile and pop-cultural trash.
Yes, the fortune teller was VERY kind and reserved, as I said; his remark was not based on a personal meeting with Miss Zhou, which, I don't think, took place, at least to the public's knowledge. He generalised VERY briefly that women with such deep, androgynous voices as hers usually have tumultuous romances-- yes, he was talking about the romance/love department. As to the interview, I felt its content trashy, but not its urgent subject.
occured to anyone yet that this might be just another working engagement for her? i bet her co2 footprint is ten times higher of anyone here. and btw. co2 doesn't cause global warming
