At the Xiangshan Forum in Beijing, Singapore’s Defense Minister Chan Chun Sing quoted Chinese philosopher Mencius: “When people are made to submit by force, they do not truly submit in their hearts. But when people are won over by virtue, they are pleased in their hearts and sincerely submit.” If you read this chapter, you’ll find that Mencius was really asking one question: What does it mean to be truly strong? 孟子讲的“以德服人”，是另一种力量： 我不需要把你压下去，才能站稳自己； 我也不需要否定你，才能证明自己。 [各视频平台Zoey朱珠 也可以找到我~]

[各个视频平台Zoey朱珠 也能找到我~] 这部电影看过很多遍也聊过好几次 终于在电影院重温还是很感动~ 跟你们分享那么多年来最喜欢的十句台词和独白： Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free. Some birds aren’t meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. There’s something inside that they can’t get to, that they can’t touch. That’s yours. I have no idea what those two Italian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don’t want to know. Some things are better left unsaid. For the briefest of moments, every last man at Shawshank felt free. We sat and drank with the sun on our shoulders and felt like free men. First you hate them, then you get used to them. Enough time passed, you depend on them. That’s institutionalized. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams.I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. What’s your favourite line? Let’s talk about it in the comments!

没想到电影《奥德赛》里让我第一次泪目的，居然是一只老狗。20年后，当所有人都认不出这个落魄、假扮成乞丐的国王时，只有这条他曾经养的狗认出了他。Argos躺在粪坑里，奄奄一息地等着主人，直到奥德修斯抚摸它，它才闭上眼睛离开。《荷马史诗》里本来就有Argos，但导演诺兰做了一个很重要的改编…… [各个视频平台Zoey朱珠也可以找到我~]

《欢迎来龙虾馆》：当“好好吃饭”都是奢望，普通人还能守住什么？这部电影后劲太大了。发现文牧野导演三部电影其实都在探讨同一个话题，当秩序崩塌、当生活把普通人逼到极限，你会坚持什么？ …… 【各个视频平台Zoey朱珠 也能找到我~】 英文文本参考： Once Upon a Time in the Middle East is my favorite movie of the summer so far. Many people think it’s a comedy, but it’s actually a very heavy anti-war film. But the director uses something so ordinary to tie the whole story together: “eat well.” When war makes even a meal a luxury, what can an ordinary person still hold on to? The story is based on real events. The real-life inspiration, Chen Xianzhong, ran a Chinese restaurant in war-torn Iraq. In the movie, Xu Fu originally just wants to make money, pay off his debts, and go home. But then war turns everything upside down. Little by little, he becomes someone who cooks for children, takes them in, and tries to get them out of the war zone. At first, he wants to escape too. But once he sees those kids, he just can’t leave them behind. There’s a line from Ma Junsheng that really stayed with me: “They’re other people’s children, but they’re still children.” At first, his dream was simple. He just wanted to open a restaurant and get married. But when Xu Fu tells him, “When we get out tomorrow, you’ll be the boss,” And when he’s that close to his dream, he gives up his own life to save other people’s children. We’re so used to movies where heroes have to do something extraordinary to be called heroes. But what moved me most was that these people never wanted to be heroes. They just couldn’t stand seeing children go hungry. If they could help, they helped. If they could give someone a meal, they gave them a meal. And then I suddenly realized that Director Wen Muye seems to be exploring the same question in all three of his movies. In Dying to Survive, Cheng Yong starts out wanting to make money. But when he realizes that people are dying because they can’t afford their medicine, he can no longer just look after himself. In Nice View, Jinghao starts out simply trying to make enough money to pay for his little sister’s treatment. But along the way, he becomes connected to a group of people who are also struggling to survive. And in this movie, Xu Fu is facing something even bigger: war. Of course he wants to survive. But he still can’t just turn his back on those children. And that made me realize that maybe Director has been asking: when everything falls apart, when life pushes an ordinary person to the limit, when it’s already hard enough just to take care of yourself, would you still care about someone who has nothing to do with you? Can an ordinary person still hold on to that small but important part of themselves? This movie really stayed with me. Any thoughts? Let me know in the comments!

今年四位菲尔兹奖得主中，居然有三位能说中文？ 除了两位中国数学家，还有一位来自美国的数学家约翰·帕登，中文名叫白杰文。他不光中文流利，还偏爱中国古诗。 另一位菲尔兹奖得主邓煜，也特别喜欢诗。他不光喜欢古诗，还自己写诗。 为什么呢？抛砖引玉，一起来讨论吧~ 【各视频平台Zoey朱珠 也能找到我噢】 Three out of the four Fields Medaliststhis year can speak Chinese. One of them is John Pardon, an American mathematician whose Chinese name is Bai Jiewen. When he was in college, many of his classmates chose French or German as their foreign language.But he chose Chinese.Why?Because he thought Chinesewas mostdifficultand challenging.Very mathematician of him, right?In his senior year, at just 20, he solved a knot theory problem that had been unsolved for 30 years.That same year, hehelped his Chinese debate team win the world championship in its division.And he’s not just fluent in Chinese.He also loves classical Chinese poetry. There’s a picture I found really interesting. A math formula, right next to the Tang Dynasty poem River Snow.The poem is all about silence, solitude and staying strong. Maybe that’s somethinghe can relate to.Another Fields Medalist, Deng Yu, is also a big fan of poetry.He doesn’t just read it. He writes poetry himself. So why do these top mathematicians love Chinese poetry?Maybe because math and poetry have something in common:They both have rules, but they also leave room for endless possibilities.Deng Yu once talked about how much he likes Li Shangyin’s“Jinse.”It’s just eight lines and 56 characters, with a very strict poetic structure.But within those strict rules, there’s so much meaning.That’s a little like mathematics.You can pack awholecomplicated system into a single equation,and then use that framework to explore endless possibilities.When Deng Yu went back to New York for an academic conference, he returned to a city where he had spent three years studying and doing research, he shared a line from a poem by Su Shi. Su Shi wrotethis after traveling to the capital with his younger brother to take the imperial exams.The road ahead was long and uncertain. Even the weak donkey pulling their cart was struggling along the way. Very vivid. About a thousand years later, Deng Yu was standing in New York, andmaybe in his own way, he understood that feeling.It also reminds me of something Liu Zhiyu, Deng Yu’s former teammate on China’s math olympiad team, wrote in his book,“Let the wise be your companions.” What we read, watch and listen to every day slowly shapes the world inside us.Reading an ancient poem is like having a conversation with someone who lived hundreds, or even thousands, of years ago.It may not solve any of our problems.But it might give us a little strength to keep going.As Deng Yu hasput it, it doesn’t have to be useful. Just appreciating its beauty is enough. 【各视频平台Zoey朱珠 也能找到我噢~】

昨晚看到电影《曾经》男主Glen Hansard因车祸去世心头一惊，没想到那么突然。 看到很多人在柏林Grafton Street街头自发悼念，那是他曾经多年街头卖唱，也是主演Once的地方。 很多人不知道的是这部电影其实是先有了他写的歌Falling Slowly，才慢慢写的电影，主角也是他，导演（他曾经乐队的贝斯手）力排众议定的他。 剧情跟他的人生也很像。因为真实，所以那么打动人吧。 Rest in Peace�� I’ve been seeing videos of people coming out to the Grafton Street to remember Glen Hansard, the same street where he used to busk and where Once was filmed. Rest in Peace. I really like his music movies actually talked about them on my podcast years ago. And what a lot of people don’t know is that Once actually came out of Glen’s music. The director, John Carney, used to play bass in the band Glen founded. They had known each other for decades, and they’d always had the idea of making a movie about street musicians in Dublin. Before the movie was officially filmed, Glen had already written what would later become the movie’s signature song, Falling Slowly. And later, a lot of the emotions and the story itself grew around the music. Originally, the plan was to have a professional actor play the male lead. But Carney decided to have Glen play the role himself. So a real street musician ended up playing a street musician. The whole movie was made for only about $150,000, and they shot it in just 17 days. There were no fancy sets, and a lot of it was filmed in the same place where Glen used to busk for years. No one expected the movie to become such a hit. And Falling Slowly went on to win the Oscar. Glen’s real life also had a lot in common with the character. He left school when he was 13 and spent years making a living by playing music on the streets of Dublin. He spent his whole life making Irish folk music, keeping it simple and honest. Maybe that’s why his music is so moving. There’s a line from Falling Slowly: “Falling slowly, sing your melody, I’ll sing along.” Yes. You left your melody with us. We’ll keep listening. Rest in Peace, Glen. 【小红书/视频号等平台Zoey朱珠也能找到我~】

昨天看到颜宁祝贺王虹获奖，说自己勉强算个人才，而王虹是天才。 两位顶级女性科学家之间的惺惺相惜真让人动容~ 她还特地提到“科学不分性别”。 这让我想到之前看到的一个研究，人们总有男生的数理天赋比学生强的误解， 其实…… [各视频账号Zoey朱珠也能找到我~]

【小红书/视频号等平台：Zoey朱珠】 最近看了很多王虹的采访，被深深折服。发现她在采访里经常提到一个词——“Tools”。 “People understood what was going on really well in two dimensions, but we lacked the tools to study higher dimensions.” “这个数学领域长久被困在二维框架之内，二维范畴内的问题我们已经钻研透彻，但想要涉足更高维度的研究，我们缺少适配的工具。” 数学家每天面对的，几乎都是短时间内根本看不到答案的问题。面对那些几十年都没有答案的问题，她的反应不是：“是不是我不够聪明？”“是不是我没有天赋？”而是：是不是，我们还没有找到那个工具？她说的是We，不是I。她看到的不是“我不会”否定自己，而是“这个领域，还没有工具。” 如果没有现成的工具，那就去创造工具…

[ 各个视频平台：Zoey朱珠 也能找到我~ ] 最近看世界杯沃齐尼亚、哈兰德看得热血沸腾， 回去看了电影《球王贝利：传奇的诞生》，发现他们身上都有很多共性… "If you want to play professionally, you can't be ashamed of who you are." 英文文本参考： Watching the World Cup recently, I was really inspired by Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha and Haaland, who are fighting for their countries. It reminded me of a line from the movie Pelé: Birth of a Legend. If you wanna play professionally, you can’t be ashamed of who you are. Vozinha was 40 years old when he finally stepped onto the World Cup stage for the first time.After the match, he ran into the stands and hugged his mom.That touching moment reminded me of Pelé. As a boy from a Brazilian slum, he reached a bigger stage also because of the support from his family.When Pelé was young, he didn’t have a real football, so he filled socks with newspapers. Even mangoes became his training balls.No football boots? He played barefoot.No football field? He trained on dirt roads.By today’s standards, those were far from proper training conditions.But it was exactly in that environment, with his determination, that he developed his own way of playing football.That’s why the movie highlights the Brazilian football tradition called Ginga.When most people questioned this style and wanted him to change, Pelé stayed with it.Many people see Ginga as just a skill. But for Pelé, it was much more than that. It was a way to turn his environment into an advantage, and a way to express who he was.And when I look at Cape Verde, I see something similar.Today, Cape Verde is a middle-income country. But for a long time, they didn’t even have a standard international football stadium. The national team had to play home games abroad, until China helped build the national stadium.Without expensive facilities, they relied on teamwork.Without superstar players, they relied on everyone’s contribution.In a way, this is Cape Verde’s own Ginga.Vozinha’s story shows this even more.He was turned down by European youth teams many times as a teenager due to his small frame and only went pro at 25. He was always a little behind that timeline. But he kept moving forward in his own way.Haaland’s story is another example.His talent is undeniable. He could have chosen a stronger football nation.But he chose Norway.Because for him, representing his own country is also part of the dream. He didn’t choose the easiest path. He chose the one that felt true to him. When he celebrates his goals with his meditation pose, I feel he knows clearly what he is chasing.Maybe that’s what makes football so fascinating.It has systems and a common path. But everyone can still find their own Ginga.

#给阿嬷的情书 是我今年看过最好哭的电影。作为客家人小时候也经常听到“下南洋”的故事，身边也有亲戚丈夫去了泰国，自己一个人养大三个孩子，从未听她抱怨过一句。这部电影不只是关于个体，背后的历史厚度跟真实故事，是最打动人的。 [小红书/抖音/B站/微博：Zoey朱珠]

[小红书/微博/抖音/B 站/公众号：Zoey 朱珠] 前段时间纳瓦尔的播客不知道你们听了没有，其中让我最深刻的一点是，不要为了那1%的快乐，浪费自己99%的时间。欲望是你跟自己签了一个合同：没得到想要的，就允许自己一直不快乐。真正浪费时间的，是你根本不在场。我们要活得“在场”，旅程即一切。

很开心这次出差有机会和Juno夫妻聊天~ 很多人以为他们在冒险，其实他们是在自己可控范围内做最适合自己的选择。 做好最坏打算，同时拥抱无限可能️ [小红书/视频号/公众号/微博：Zoey朱珠]
