澳大利亚热,北京冷

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 26, 2006

今天是澳大利亚日,又放假。温度有所回升,还好,只比体温高三度。

昨天与老苏网上见面,问了几句话,才知道国内媒体又吹寒风,温度直线下降。 Read the rest of this entry »

google.cn

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 25, 2006

Google今天发布消息,推出了Google.cn。好啊,这可是专门为中国人量身打造的。

中国人真是特殊,MSN上也要特殊一下,怕一些词语会伤到大脑,最后你们就不要说了;Google是不是也请了什么中国专家,根据中国人改造了搜索引擎,把一些有碍观瞻的东西从中国人的视线中拿开了。 Read the rest of this entry »

中年危机

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 25, 2006

《艺妓回忆录》已经在墨尔本上映了,电车站的路牌广告处处见得到章子怡那张惨白的瘦脸。没看过原著。《时代》周刊(在澳大利亚看的《时代》都不知道是哪儿的版,好像有点本地化,但是又没有打明是不是澳洲或者亚洲版)很当回事,做的封面广告,错了,应该是封面报道。 Read the rest of this entry »

澳网印象

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 24, 2006

1月17日,星期二,阴转晴

澳大利亚地广人稀,墨尔本绿地尤其多,几乎每个社区都会有一大块公园,除了绿地绿树,往往还有几块网球场。这情景就像北京社区里到处见得到乒乓球案子一样。所以并不奇怪,中国独霸世界乒坛,澳大利亚靠澳网闻名,而澳网公开赛也是在一个公园里举行的——墨尔本公园。 Read the rest of this entry »

准备改版了

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 24, 2006

虽然来到wordpress没有多长时间,但是已经计划要改版了。

主要的计划是准备先从Gmail上诈骗一堆邮箱,然后用这些诈骗来的邮箱到wordpress上申请新的blog域名。wordpress这帮技客,只准用不同的邮箱来申请空间,害得我丢了几个不错的域名。

新浪的免费邮件真差,居然不能和Gmail互联互通,害得我瞎忙活。最后只好选择了搜狐下手。别看搜狐免费邮箱界面估计是全球免费邮箱最差的,但还真能和Gmail通上话。而且从sohu1000100频段以后的邮箱号码还空了很多,可以足够用来向Gmail骗邮箱了。

今天先换了一张脸,以后这上面就准备以流水帐的形式写些生活琐事了,不想搞得太严肃。

读书笔记已经专门有了一个空间,还要再整一个中国怪现状录,把中国媒体上的一些奇闻异事记录下来,留给我的下一代看。中国5千年之大变局,没人记录,就太可惜了。

其它的主题,再慢慢想吧。

What makes Chinese a Chinese today

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 16, 2006

These days I happen to have a question in my mind. What makes Chinese a Chinese today? Except we are born in the land, the language we speak (actually, Chinese people from different part of China speak very different languages, but most can communicate using Mandarin), the black hairs we have, the color of our skin and eyes, what’s the difference of the thinking, the most important thing, between a typical Chinese today and people from other societies, say US, or European countries? NO. I cannot give a convincing answer to this question. Read the rest of this entry »

白修德发出的响雷

Thunder out of China
By Theodore H. White and Annalee Jacoby
Apollo Editions, New York William Sloane Associattes, Inc.

“The K alone was responsible for the government during the war; it was the government. It appointed and directed all government officials. It controlled the national army; all senior officers and over 90 per cent of the men were enrolled, at least nominally, on the party roster, and political commissars were attached to each unit. Since government and party were the same thing, the army was a party army. The K controlled the censorship, party work was supported by government funds, party functionaries lived on public taxes. And since all other parties were outlawed, criticism of the K became a state offense.”

“The K party chose a National Congress, which in turn chose a Standing Committee. And here, within the party, were all the debates and decisions are powers that could not be traced in the government itself.”

如果做一道选择题,要你为上面的K选择一个答案,A国民党,B共产党,你会选哪一个? Read the rest of this entry »

战争废物

War Trash
Har Jin
New York : Pantheon Books 2004

这只是一部小说,并非历史传记。但这部小说最大的价值,我想,在于对理解这一场战争所提供的有益帮助,或者比历史本身更大。我相信,这部小说,可以引导中国的读者对于朝鲜战争,甚至对于更广泛的中国现代史,进行认真的反思 Read the rest of this entry »

柯裕棻《行路難》(转载)

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 15, 2006

有这样一些好文,写文章的人把你想说的都说了,只需要安静地阅读。 柯裕棻的文字除了干净有力之外,竟然有一种节奏的美,让我以为她是一个男子。我错了。

《行路難》
柯裕棻
不過是幾年前一個冬天的黃昏稍晚,當日黃昏短暫,匆匆下過小城那一年的第一場大雪。那是一座年年冰封五個月的小城,可是年年沒有人確實做好心理準備,因此第一場雪總是措手不及,如此倉皇進入冬天已成慣例。 Read the rest of this entry »

《中南海日记》和游吟诗人吴稼祥

Posted by Zhao Jianfei on January 14, 2006

胡耀邦是天上的白云,人间的污点够不着他

——《中南海日记》

《中南海日记》和中南海游吟诗人吴稼祥

小程让我寻找一本书,前新华社高级记者杨继绳的《中国改革年代的政治斗争》,该书仅在香港出版,因为其中有三次对于前中共中央总书记赵紫阳的采访而引人关注。莫纳什图书馆中文书寒碜得很,没能找到。误打误撞,却找到一本吴稼祥所著的《中南海日记:中共两代王储的陨落》,看后对于80年代末中南海里针对自由化而展开的政治斗争多了一些了解,也认识了一位中南海里的游吟诗人,吴稼祥。 Read the rest of this entry »
