There is a Luc Besson movie where Jet Li fights evil Jet Lis and Bridget Fonda pisses on the street. Obviously French perv was working out his kinks.

Jet Li does indeed rule. Easily one of the best action stars of the 00s.

Justin Trudeau was getting scolded by Xi Jinping for their previous conversations being leaked to the media. "Let's create the conditions first (for dialogue)" is quite the pointed remark to end on. A diplomatic gently caress you to Trudeau's claim of wanting a free, open and frank dialogue.

:eng101: the luc besson movie had bridget fonda only threaten to poo poo in the street because jet li wouldn't let her inside to use the toilet (kiss of the dragon) and the evil jet li on jet li fighting was a different movie! (the one)

I think Xi means this, everything he had discussed with Trudeau yesterday was passed along to the media.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/11/15/canadas-trudeau-raises-chinese-interference-in-talks-with-xi posted:

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has raised “serious concerns” over alleged Chinese interference in Canada in brief talks with China’s President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of this week’s Group of 20 (G20) meeting in Indonesia.

The prime minister’s office said in a readout on Tuesday that the two leaders discussed North Korea and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, while Trudeau “also raised our serious concerns around interference activities in Canada”.

It's very much Trudeau creating an image for Canada that he's tough and will stand up to China. But I don't think he was expecting for Xi Jinping to call him out on it.

im not sure any musicians from hong kong or taiwan are famous to any real degree in the west. but even given that idk if leslie cheung is more western-famous than jay chou. as in, if theres 12 white people in america who know leslie cheung (as a singer, i think people would think of him as an actor) then maybe theres 15 who know jay chou.

It's not as nerdy as knowing about Faye Wong because of a Web 1.0 internet nerd website though

this is the same guy btw who published a "China Construction Kit" to help "Conworlders who’d like to create a China-like con-culture, or set an RPG campaign in a historical or legendary China" and "Conlangers who aim to create an isolating language or a non-alphabetic writing system"

I saw Cui Jian live like 20 years ago and had no idea how loving big he was in China. all my older friends were super jealous and for me it was just a chance encounter at my favorite live music spot.

no idea about his present popularity but when I saw him live it was like the loving ed Sullivan Beatles show at this small club.

Just left the barbershop and everyone was talking about the 20th National Congress.

“Yoooo Wang Huning bro! That’s that heat we need for building a moderately prosperous socialist nation!”

When you are getting talked about in the barbershop — you know it’s real.
