The younger Chinese generation (invitation)

This year is the celebration of 100 years Chinese in Holland. We have seen a lot from the first and second generations Chinese in Holland now, and wondering what will the future look like with the younger Chinese generation. Therefore 20 youngsters are selected to be portrayed in this exhibition.

There will be portraits about  their ambition, dreams and future. It is my honor to be showcased as one of the youngsters during this exhibition and a pleasure to me working with Eveline and Pay-Uun for the interview and photo session.

Stopera is literally the combination of the city hall of Amsterdam and Opera (music theater) in one building in the center of Amsterdam.

The photo show will be available until 2 December 2011 in the Stopera Amsterdam. This Saturday 29th of October, 14.00 – 16.00 Andre Es (wethouder/alderman) will be opening this great event with a speech.

Hope to you meet you there.

New Haircut by my fashion hairstylist

I took the train from Utrecht to my hairstylist in Rotterdam City and it took me about an hour. Yes, for a new haircut.

But she’s really worth it 😉

While sitting there you may think, noo not too short, but after all it looks quite good. At least, the girls are looking twice, which is i believe a score.

My hairstylist is very nice, and a very special woman. With a strong character she can be very mean but she looks very good and nice at her age. She definitely knows her taste and got her degree in Fashion design, hairstylist and visage. She have worked in Hong Kong and also for TVB with artist. So it is quite interesting while having a nice chitchat with her. I really like her personality, she’s nice but to the point and also got lot of talents and interests like I do. For example she plays the piano, and Tai Chi, likes kung fu but doesn’t practice it. She love to see it, and she is very very good at Chinese chess, once being a champion in Hong Kong. She did competition diving and now she loves to design haircut, that’s her passion to do. Perfection. We have things similar and I learn a lot from her just to talk with her. She’s very kind to me too, and you know what, she told me last that she checked my facebook and youtube channel and she love the things we do, the videos we made. I was like, omg noo hhahaa, because we have some lol making videos which doesn’t make sense at all haha. but ya she told me she would have joined us if she’s that young. She enjoys by watching just because we are having so much fun. The next time I’ll take a photo with her just to introduce her to you 🙂

 

I can still remember.. 2 March, 2011 – I went to her the day before my birthday for a new fresh haircut. She learned me to play ‘Wei Qi’ which is Chinese chess. She’s goood.. haha and in the train back home I had a quite interesting happening. There was a lady sitting at the other side of the window with another granny.. after some time she stepped to me and leant over, her face was quite close to me and she was asking me: Do you belief in Jezus?

Then I looked deep in her eyes. There were different colors in her eye. For a moment there was a silence. Then I answered her, well it is a historical person so why not? Then she gave me a flyer of a church and then get back to her seat. The granny was smiling at me. She was a bit creepy, but nevertheless I smiled back. Then I asked the lady while sitting there, excuse me madam, may I ask you why you picked me out? I mean, there are so many others in the train why did you asked me that question? Then she answered, I felt that.

Get An IPAD 2 Free (delivered)

Hey buddy, Where on Earth are you suppose to get IPADs for free? This is insane!

Using psychology to cover up this marketing trick,  to persuade people to attend this Facebook topic of ‘remember Steve Jobs’ and get an IPAD free, and people do this because they think they have nothing to lose, or really think they can get an Ipad delivered to their address. At the end, they’re just remembering Steve Jobs and get it forwarded right? But hold on a second, where not looking for targets like Jerry the mouse right? SCAM! This shows that most people are greedy.. We’re living in an acquisitive society, and people make use of it.

The first line in the Facebook SCAM is exactly this: “The First 25,000 Participants Will Get An iPad 2”

HA HA HA HA How ridiculous can this be!

As the mouse will fall into the trap, I do believe Jerry the mouse won’t.

So actually their target is to reach at least 25,000 mice each Facebook event. Multiply this and WOw! That is Massive isn’t it.

 

Seeing all those participators, it just make no sense at all.

it just shows even more that Apple brought her brand to another level, becoming a Lovemark to their success in Western countries.

To the compromised accounts, Change your account password. This scam is on the Google Alert list. But I think it should have been in your alert list way earlier and go right to the trashcan.
This is what happened in 2 days.

Attending: 11.728 -> 16.735 (Tom)

Not attending: 11.647 – 11.659 (Jerry)

Have not yet replied: 172.602 -> 207.091 assuming  these are (Jerry’s)

What I don’t understand is why there are 2.180 people who don’t know wheter or not to attend, they just clicked ‘i don’t know/maybe’ Doesn’t make any sense, you go or not. This is so stupid. I call them the (Cheese)

Categorized in 3 parties, which one would you’ve been? (Be honest to yourself)

About this story..

To me, it means: Marketing is worth to study and social media is the future ~

It is a love hate relationship thought 🙂
