科技和媒体

被博爱和浪漫主义驱动，我致力通过通信工程和媒体改进亲爱的人们的生活。

科技的日新月异，思想(并非思潮或文化)的层出不穷，给人们究竟带来了多少快感？人们的接受能力受到社会性的极大牵制。从电话标准的统一到语言甚至口号的协调，从电信运营商的整合到奥运精神的东扩，多少人的物质利益受到了严重侵害？多少人的精神被严重腐蚀？

人迷茫点有以下几大类：没有了快感，我会更善良吗？没有了财产，我会有身价吗？没有了微笑，我的心会更暖吗？没有了躯壳，我的精神会更纯粹吗？没有了你，我会爱吗？没有了个性，我还存在吗？

我听到一个跟我很像的声音说: 亲爱的，如果你不识乐谱也没有学过模电(或类似物)和易经，请不要试图了解什么，明白什么道理。你们要做积极的事情，美好的事情，有用的事情。勤劳是非充分亦非必要的工具，仔细是必要工具，纯洁是目标。

我就想，碰巧我了解一些东西。如果不知者不为过，那么知者亦不为过。所以这也没什么不好，反正也是要和普通人一样把每件事做好。

于是我看到一个跟我差不多模样的道貌岸然者就毅然升仙了。他在云霭中微笑，有人的躯壳，播撒着幸福的种子。这些种子落地，多年后人间成为花的海洋，种类繁多。 人人都是园丁， 仔细地劳作。 他们善良，平静，脸上挂满终极幸福的微笑 。

Letter to my tutors in China Netcom

Dear Mis Jiang and Mis Huang,

I have been in France for more than a year by now. And during one year I have engaged myself to the endless classes at school, to be a good student.

Forgive me for this late hello that I now bring you. Being a student in France who is suffering from extremely advanced mathematics and automatics studies, I feel almost separated from the telecom industry. This is the reason why I hesitate to write a letter to you to discuss with you, as well as any other experts in our industry.

However, my strong feeling of identity as a telecom person has never diminished. That’s why I always think of you, my dear teachers, and the wonderful time we spent together in China Netcom.

To tell the truth, it was in China Netcom that I began to focus my real career interest to the industry. It is the telecom industry. And working in a telecom operator gave me the broadest vision to look at this industry, even to manipulate it!

The meetings and conferences that I participated in were, in particular, a fruitful experience. This is the best part of my internship in China Netcom because I am a conference person and I did speak a lot for China Netcom during the conferences in “Friendship Hotel” (especially with Doctor ZHANG Zhen). :-)

To tell more truth, I did not completely focus myself in the work in China Netcom because I was busy preparing for my application for France. That is why you could notice I had so many days if absence for doing many affaires out of work. For this, I now sincerely apologize to you, hoping you can understand me.

I always ask ZHANG Xi about the current situation of you two teachers and I heard that he is becoming such a busy expert. I am so proud of him. I think you are also willing to be informed about my studies and life a little bit. What’s more, I promised you, Mis. Huang, to tell you more about France to prepare a better future for your son!

I am now studying in a top engineering school. There are two types of engineering school in France. The one that is specialized in a certain industry, and the one that is training very well-rounded people, which means you have to learn everything in the engineering world. The second type is better than the first type in France and students are trained to be the future directors and managers. My school is the second type. So I have to learn automatics, information system, telecom, energy…

Because my school is one of the best engineering schools, every subject here is much more difficult than other schools and every subject is more deeply studied even than the schools which are specialized in one domain.

Every student in my school is very well-educated and they study very hard (much more hard-working than BUPT students).

Life here is busy and peaceful. I have no time to travel around but I can always enjoy the beautiful sunshine at the place where I live. We can learn a lot in such a quiet environment.

Now I am working in the second largest mobile operator in France called “SFR”, which is the member of “Vodafone” in France. It owns the largest 3G network and the biggest number of subscribers in France. This is an internship during one year (from this month to August 2008). And after this internship I still have half a year’s study at school.

Everyday I discuss with all the manufacturers of mobile phones (Nokia, Huawei, Alcatel, Samsung, ZTE, Sony-Ericsson, LG…) in the conferences to decide the technical characteristics of new mobile phones coming to the market and I develop information solutions for marketing and strategy.

Working in the best CBD in Europe, I can enjoy the beautiful city of Paris by looking out of my window. I feel content of life.

Sometimes I take a walk by the river Seine, while my heart is totally peaceful. This feels great. But I am not a person who can stop fighting and enjoy the tranquil life. I still need some passion to prove that I can change a grand network; I can change billions of people’s life, like in China Netcom.

I really miss you, my dear teachers. My passion for telecom has started again in my new internship in Paris, and never ends.

I wish you all the best. May happiness always accompany with you, your family, and every friend of yours.


Your student ever,

Yan ZHANG

夏夜的林荫大道 Au boulevard d’été résonne
树叶在叫 La musique des feuilles
松鼠探出脑袋 La lune redonne
对月亮傻笑 Le sourire d’un écureuil

停止前进 On ne s’avance plus
突然感觉很妙 On s’enivre dans la rue

轻轻 Doucement j’écarte
拨开你的刘海 Ta frange de cheveux
轻轻 Doucement j’embrasse
抱着你的腰 Ton âme pieuse

你的眼睛 Tes yeux rayonne
在黑暗中很美 Dans le bois ténébreux
还有刷着我的心的 Tes cils frottent
你用睫毛 Contre mon cœur généreux

幸福的泪说 « Tu es la meilleure !»
你是我的荣耀 Disent mes larmes
从此再不沧桑 Plus rien de malheur
一直到老 Disent les arbres

“不知道。” « Chais pas. »

变革

得知某国总理去世，我一下午都在踟蹰。接着后来几夜没睡好。

我不安得根本没有道理，至今, 我更多关心的是Mr. TOTEL那双种族歧视的蓝眼睛，而不是远在旧金山的方以伟及他的的亚洲周刊---我和他日后应该并无瓜葛。换句话说, 我无力顾及关于美国媒体是否会被控制的话题。

为什么? 在接近白炽时，我仍是个白痴。我的力量仍然很微弱，这让我很着急，很兴奋。

澄清一下，我还在法国搞工程学，主要是掌握一些思维方法，活跃脑子。但不久前我已经放出话, 要渐渐跻身媒体了。因为很多人不幸福，这个世界需要被改变，我是一个有力量改变世界的人。

大部分人们都是很恶俗地去被动接受能引起他们共鸣的思想，灵感或是经验。贵为天子或者国父的大爷们，先人们, 思想家们，哲学家们，作家们，各种伪装情商高的名人们，尤其是艺术家们，灵感都是多多的，甚至是泛滥的。人们时而引用名人的一句话作为自己的价值取向指导，时而惊艳于成功人士的某些举动，而唏嘘不已并试着效仿。他们从来无法验证这些言论或者行为是否幼稚，是否真的会让他们靠近幸福。

我很讲求方法，不好的方法根本不会有效果。经过广泛咨询和求教，我在实现上分为两步：

第一步：我要把关于技术的细腻灵感和关于生命的宏伟灵感融合，用文化而不是政治从深层次改变世界，引导正确的社会思潮，给人们带来前所未有的幸福。这仅仅是开端。

第二步：我要把人们的主观能动性调动起来，努力自己争做自己灵感的主要源泉， 真正做到有准备，理智，有针对性地创造和经营幸福。

令人欣慰的是，六月二日，吉隆坡终于有了动静：新的启蒙运动将在本世纪二三十年代辉煌起来。

有些人很快就来攻击我，是否要采取焚书坑儒的手段了，是否要文革了，不是！我的革命第一步是“标榜”着民主和自由的非政治的文化解放运动， 第二步是确确实实以民主和自由为本质的思想解放运动。

这是欧洲满街花瓣，花香四溢的季节。明媚的阳光下，我坐在静静的湖边积攒灵感。未来的日子里，我要利用好媒体和科技这两样工具多做贡献，有了我贡献的这一份力量：

1 人们会更有乐趣；
2 人们会更有爱心；
3 人们会更有勇气。

收拾电脑深处的文件夹时总会被déjà-vu搞得心动， 因为这些久违的文件实在太经典了。 这些温馨的， 深邃的， 动人的， 杀气冲天的déjà-vu总是贯穿于我暗伏杀机的平淡生活中，起到了张晓龙的问候般的效果。 我很满意。

忽略其导致癫痫病的副作用之后，这就是现在和未来的力量之源。 用鲁迅的口吻来讲，这就是现在和未来的力量之源罢 ！

然而在天天叫喊”No more déjà-vu, please!”的Stanley同学那里，情况就大相径庭了。最近他开始质疑自己的一句有些年岁的口头禅：”When we jump out of the circle, we can see the bigger picture. ” 并不留情面地对这句话作出鉴定： 纯属SB。

然而正是一句对今天没有指导意义的废话，惊现在我多年前稚嫩的演讲稿里，并作为déjà-vu的主要来源正在激励着我背上的汗毛。Stanley其实早就在2003年慈祥地提醒过我，这只是一种手段，在危难时刻创造一种机会，可以让别人陶醉于文化的déjà-vu中而自己能够挤入智者群中暂时躲避两秒钟，皆大欢喜。

附上新鲜出土的21世纪初的21世纪杯稿子及音频以纪念刚刚另一种灵感的诞生。

Download: Well-rounded Education
Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, April 2004
Zhang Yan

Ladies and gentlemen,
I’m truly honored by the opportunity to stand before you on this special day, a day when I as an engineering student can express my special thoughts to all of you audience from a diversity of backgrounds.
Last October I participated in the Model United Nations Conference hosted by Chinese Foreign Ministry. I still remember vividly the scene when the reporter of Phoenix TV interviewed me after the conference. She asked: “As a student of telecommunications, why do you spend so much time and energy preparing for this political event?” I said: “To give myself an all-round education!” And the next morning, that reply became the headline of Beijing Daily, if not China Daily. It was entitled: “Science and engineering students seeking to be well-rounded.”
Yes, we want to be well-rounded because we are challenged. We engineering students take it for granted that technology is changing incredibly fast. We are thinking nervously and seriously whether our colleges are failing to provide a foundation in the skills currently needed in industry. Take my major telecommunications for example. Scientists say that 21st century is a biomedical time, not an electrical time. So the interdisciplinary exploitation serves as the critical part for our electric and electronics world to find new way of being.
Therefore, throughout the history of our university, researchers, educators, and students have been increasing connections among disciplines. We are proud of our REU program—Research Experiences for Undergraduates, which was established by the student union of our telecommunications school. We members are now doing a Cochlear Implants Project. In order to provide deaf people a hearing, we are trying to produce a bionic ear for these disabled. This artificial device incorporates electrical and electronics engineering, biomedical engineering, psychoacoustics and cognition science together. Through this project, we came to understand each other, we started to appreciate what we did not know, we managed to overcome differences, and we were motivated to travel in unexplored territory seeking new understandings of our world. In a word, we had witnessed the great power of knowledge collaboration. Students from different fields had regained their future opportunities because they know for sure that the interdisciplinary education is always there providing us with a broad stage to reach our full potential.
But the power of knowledge collaboration is not restricted to science and engineering. It is in the full community of learning. Walking around campus I absorbed a reality that there is a seamless web between students from different professional backgrounds. The engineering students are discussing animatedly in a philosophy lecture, speaking passionately in the public speaking club, and looking for sparkling ideas from learning history and arts. How wonderful that is! That, ladies and gentleman, is just a significant step forward to be well-rounded because once we jump out of the circle we can see the bigger picture.
Still in the Model United Nations, on the issue of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the agenda passed a motion to urge the UNESCO to spread a new kind of education called Science and Engineering Ethics to universities around the world, which is a 1-year’s course first developed by our REU program last year. From the birth of atomic bomb to the cloning of humans, from the increasingly popular campus suicide to the immergence of new and more harmful computer viruses that are made by our university students. By illustrating and analyzing these cases, the course will strike every scientist and engineer’s heart that we can never be well-rounded talents unless we are engaged in healthy psychology and high moral principle.
Still, after participating in various political and humanitarian activities, it is still my greatest pleasure to find inspiration in the lives of scientists and engineers, as they have insight that can be generalized to any area of life. Let me end my speech with the Nobel Prize winner Li Zhengdao’s words: “The realization of the perfect combination of science and engineering, science and arts, technology and humanity, is the greatest symbol of a university’s success.”

昨天很想家，写了几句歌词描述一下我妈去机场送我的情景，配的是《富士山下》的音乐。自己唱了一下，觉得难听。今天让艾宇把它完美演绎出来了，唱得很不错！歌在这里:下载

Mama

Lyrics by Yan ZHANG
May 2nd, 2007

Oh mama when I whisper 妈妈 当我低声地
Telling you that I am ready to go 告诉你我就要走了
Your smile is carrying too much painful sorrow 你的微笑含有太多痛和悲
Your sob is rather shallow 你的啜泣声如此轻弱
Tears are still under control 你的泪仍在受控中
You say there's still one sock you forget to sew 你说还有一只袜子忘了给我缝

Oh mama when I'm waving to you from the rising window 妈妈 当我从上升的窗口向你招手
I see your eyes are shining in the shadow 我看见黑影中你的眼睛在闪动
Time is becoming too slow 时间就这样变缓
Distance is longer than rainbow 距离比彩虹还长

It's hard to know 很难知道
When's there again at home 什么时候才能回到家
Noodle to swallow 狼吞虎咽你做的面条
