Diary

To the elderly people living in the Ya’an disaster area, I’d like you all to know that I specially ordered some modern style houses that is designed to withstand earthquakes and any other type of natural disaster. The houses are leaving Beijing today and are on the way to being delivered to Ya’an! Within the next two months, the new houses will be ready for you to use. What surprised me the most was when I visited the factory in Beijing today, many new and old friends donated money and materials when the delivery trucks prepared to leave for Ya’an. Not only will we be constructing houses for the people in Ya’an, we will also be delivering essential daily items to the area on a regular basis. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who participated in the operation today. Thank you all!

雅安災區的一百位老人家，之前我定做的新型抗震減災房屋今天從北京發車，會用最快的速度送去雅安！幫你們在兩個月內蓋好新家。讓我意外的是，今天很多新老朋友來到北新建材的房屋工厂，捐款捐物參与發車行動，我們不僅會建房子，今后還會分次帶生活用品去看望你們，同時也謝謝今天所有參与活動的朋友們！感謝！

After spending a few days in Cannes for the promotion of my upcoming new movie, Skiptrace, I rushed back to Beijing and attended the “China Popstar” Initiation Ceremony to mark the start of the new program. China Popstar is similar to The Voice of China program, and I’m also their “Aspiration Goodwill Ambassador”. In fact, I’ve always wanted to hold another The Disciple competition because the range of talent from the first series was too much and I missed a lot of talented contestants. I think that the concept behind China Popstar is very similar to the ideas I had in mind, and since I don’t have time to organize another The Disciple program, I decided to take part in this new program and be their Goodwill Ambassador, helping them promote this idea to the younger generation. I hope we can develop more energy and give young people with dreams and aspirations a platform to perform their talents.

在戛納沒幾天，趕完新電影的宣傳，又匆匆趕回北京，是為了”中國星力量”的啟動儀式，因為我是他們的”夢想大使”。我一直希望再辦一屆”龍的傳人”，因為第一屆的定位有偏差，令到我錯過了很多有潛能的演員。我覺得”中國星力量”的理念，與我的想法很貼近，既然我沒時間再辦”龍傳”，所以參與他們，成為他們的大使，向年輕人推廣這個項目，希望帶動起更多正能量，讓有夢想、有理想的年輕人能有一個好的平台發揮自己的潛能。

For me, Being in Cannes is no different to being in any other country because when I wake up every day, I prepare myself for work. And every day for me is meetings, more meetings, eat dinner, and then maybe attend a party or event. But to be very honest, I see all this as work. It’s just that I’m in a different place, meeting different friends (or strangers) at a different restaurant. Each time when I see someone, I would stand up and greet them then sit down, stand up again and then sit down.

Today in Cannes, apart from the usual work, the thing that got me most excited is that I bumped into world’s best football player of all time — Pele! I think a lot of young fans today don’t know who he is. But in my generation, Pele was an amazing footballer! A true superstar! He is a legend! He is going to be very busy in the year to come because the football World Cup will be held in Brazil next year. I look forward to watching the 2014 World Cup!

康城對於我來說，從我每天早上起來就是工作。開會、再開會，吃飯、party是少不了的應酬，但對我來說，都是在工作，在不同的地方餐廳每次見到朋友或陌生人，我都會禮貌地起來，坐下，再起來，坐下打招呼，今天工作之餘，令我最高興的是，我在晚餐時碰到世界球王貝利，可能很多年青人不認識他，但在我們這一代，球王貝利是永遠的傳奇！He is a legend！ 他在未來的一年中，會非常忙碌，因為明年世界杯將會在巴西舉辦。 我非常期待明年的世界杯！

Today I’ve been soooo busy. Interview, interview, interview … and then meetings, meetings, meetings. I also attended a press release conference. And right now, I just finished doing an interview with Bai Yansong for his show “News 1+1”. I know before, a lot of people have been concerned with the old historic Chinese wooden houses that I have. Remember a few weeks ago, I said that I wanted to find a time to explain my story in detail? As usual, I kept my promise! To all my friends and fans who are interested in the full story, tomorrow night on CCTV News Channel at 21:30 (Beijing time), the program “News 1+1” hosted by Mr. Bai Yansong will be broadcast and my story will be told there. If you watch the program, you will fully understand the entire process and reasons behind my decisions. I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for your care and concerns towards China’s history and culture, and I hope even more people will be interested in this area in the near future. Thank you.
