Good Story

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.



A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'



The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.' What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'

Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?

Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective? Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.

Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.

Great men say, 'Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness.... In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.'

The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling...And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it!!!

国庆日的最佳礼物

李宗伟输了。。。一场让人失望的巅峰之战。。。我觉得李宗伟发挥正常,只是林丹当天太神了,从该决赛的表现来看,他确实配得上那枚金牌。从比分来看,大家可能觉得林丹赢得很轻松,但回想他四年来所承受的压力,这枚金牌来得不易。

同样的,李宗伟的银牌也来得更加不易。多年来,他独自一人对抗强大的中国男单,输球时还需承受球迷的责备,那种孤独感非我们能理解的。。。坦白说,之前我对李宗伟没什么好感,尤其是去年世锦赛落败后公开责备总教练。但,他过后的表现确实让我刮目相看。他从低谷中走出来所付出的努力不是我们能想象的。他在各方面的自我提升有目共睹,尤其是心态。不但是他在球场上出色的表现,更重要的是他自我超越,尊重对手的精神赢得我的尊重。

他那份决心、信心、执著、投入和努力是值得学习的。他也让我相信只要有决心和信心,大马人民还是可以在世界舞台发光发亮的!!!

大马人民不分彼此地支持李宗伟,为他呐喊加油,米斯本和李宗伟不分种族地为国家荣誉而奋斗。。。。这些都是国庆日的最佳礼物,真正的MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!

Missing parts of Beijing Olympics 2008 Opening Ceremony

一场大型晚会中,负责切换镜头决定机位的导播是异常重要的。好的导播可以恰到好处的利用机位和远近镜头给大家呈现出最好的效果。结果导播把老谋子好几年的心血给打了5折。 这次导播的遗憾的让我们完全没有真实的看到一个美轮美奂举世震惊的开幕式。


开场的击缶,整齐!壮观!



应该切远景的时候居然用局部特写,许多搭配在一起简直如画般美好的场景,被大打折扣。 还是击缶,大家谁在电视上看到这个场景了? 没错,这个场景的时候,导播把镜头切到观众席去了




中国红



鸟巢真的是个气势磅礴的地方,还是击缶部分。仰角度观看。导播就会切观众席特写



五星红旗迎风飘扬,胜利歌声多么响亮



升国旗,奏国歌



谁在电视上看到还有字了= =如果不是这组照片,没去现场的近40亿人,谁知道上面还有行字?



竖起来的五环



在桃花的部分,导播坚定的切了一个桃花的超大近景特写。所以全世界40亿人在这个部分,基本只看到了疑似塑料花的道具特写。 那么我们来看现场的效果



真实的效果!!! 被这张桃花震撼了!! 张艺谋我以后再也不说你是农村剧专业户了!你是当之无愧的大导演!



下面是手拿竹制书简的表演。 在电视上,导播给这个表演来的也是大特写,特写到满眼都是脑袋上的长羽毛,感觉就是一大群脑袋上带羽毛球的人。我们来看现场的效果



泼墨写意,画般感觉。而此时我们能在电视上看到的,只有导播切到的脑袋顶端羽毛特写



这个镜头的时候,看电视的人,完全看不到两边的优美陶瓷图画。只给了中间特写,而且是长时间的,完全没有顾忌到两边的整体协调性。



这么美好的角度,这么美丽的场景,你们居然只在女演员脸上打特写,那几个姑娘是好看,
但是不能只拍她们啊!电视上没能看到这个场景,太遗憾了



电视里完全都没有拍到的!该拉近景的时候你们又远远的拍柱子远景,谁能看清楚上面的人呀。



天呐,这和今天电视上播出的,真的是同一场开幕式吗?这么美丽的东西,为什么没有被呈现出来



多么美丽的敦煌飞天舞者。只给了两个镜头,还不知所谓= =
背影



我敢打赌看电视转播的观众,都不知道这幅画原来是这样的。



这是太极拳表演变换太极阵,太美了。电视上在给演员们打超近距离面部特写近景



继续太极阵



你们知道这是什么吗?没人知道吧? 这是太极拳最开始那段。 那段大家应该记得很清楚,还是在打近距离特写。 远景,远景才是张艺谋导演追求的效果啊!!!泪,美好的远景就这么被导播切没了



太极阵的另一变化



笑脸



真美好



这和电视上完全是两场晚会啊!



这些笑脸电视里都看不到TOT



连我们精心制作的烟火都没有拍摄出来



鸟巢烟火



仿若置身幻境



火树银花



导播只知道航拍烟火很有feel,却不知道从鸟巢向上看,又一处人间胜景



这才是老谋子要表达的从古代织布机中走出的丝绸之路!



在地球之外还有灿烂的银河,我反正是没看见~!

Poll Results

Will Malaysia grab the first ever Olympics GOLD medal(s) in Beijing Olympics 2008?

62% - Yes.Through Badminton.
31% - No. Going to disappointed again =.=
6% - Yes. Through other sports.


Expected results. Badminton is the only sport that our country able to win gold medal in Olympics. Hopefully they can live up to the expectations.

Personally, I think Koo/Tan can win the gold medal this time. Meanwhile, it's a tough job for Lee Chong Wei to crown the men's singles title as too many Chinese players are there, he really needs to beware of Bao Chun Lai in the semi final.

Hope that they can end the long-waited Olympics gold medal!!!! MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!
