My comment: Oddly the last photo with a caption 晚宴上的中国脸, does not include Ms Elaine Chao, former Secretary of Labor under Pres. George W Bush.
(b) 白宫外交事件: Perhaps that is a term coined among Chinese, because there
isa no such tern in ENGLISH (as of now).

(Paragraph 1: "For Chinese citizens following President Hu Jintao's visit to
the U.S., the message from Communist Party propaganda czars is loud and
clear: The world's dominant power is finally treating China as an equal, and
Mr. Hu, who steps down as party chief next year, is the man to thank")
Excerpt in the window of the print: Mr Hu aims to secure his political
legacy as architect of China's rise to a major world power.
My comment: The report only gives a fleeting account of Lang Lang
performance:
"The only online commentary allowed to stray from the official party line
was widespread praise from nationalist bloggers for Lang Lang, the China-
born pianist who played a tune from a famous anti-U.S. Chinese film about
the Korean War during the White House state banquet.
"'This is so not giving face to the U.S.... hoho, this is so cool!' wrote
Jing Niu on sina.com's microblogging service, one of thousands of netizens
who hailed Mr. Lang's choice as a snub to President Obama. The pianist
himself, writing about the White House evening on his blogsite, gives no
hint that he understood the political implications. |
