Life is really interesting.

Speech time: 2015-07-11

-Cai Lan, a famous gourmet and a "four talents in Hong Kong", gave an inspirational speech in the No.1 146 issue of Everybody Talk.

First of all, I like watching this program very much, but after watching it, I have a feeling that all the invited guests are prominent, but why should they be punished all day? Probably a lot of pranks in my last life. How about finding a chair? Thank you. Much more comfortable.

My name is Cai Lan, why Cai Lan? Because I was born in Nanyang, my father said, "It's just Cai Nan, the south of the south". But I have an elder who also has the word "Nan" in his name, so he changed it to "Lan". There is also an old saying: "seventy doesn't exceed the rules", and "not exceeding the rules" means that you don't have to obey the rules and you will live at once.

This kind of life is really good and fun. There are two ideas. It's fun if you think it's fun. If you think it's not funny, it's not funny. It's like when you walk over and go out, crows are screaming all over the sky. It's unfortunate, but you see, crows are the only animals that give their parents food. There are few such animals, including humans. Therefore, in such a short few decades, we should look at life well, not bad, not too gloomy. I like chatting with young people best, because I think I can communicate with them. I am still young. I just found that many young people still have a generation gap with me, that is, I am a little younger than them. I try my best to study, experience, travel and eat good food, and my life will be better, as simple as that. I like reading books. I like reading a lot of books. I read everything. I read Greek mythology when I was young. I like reading these fantastic things. Then I like traveling. As long as I like traveling, I will open my eyes and see how others live. When I was in Spain, I went to see the location. There is an old man fishing there. This island in Spain is called Ibiza, where retired hippies live. Old hippies are fishing there. I see the fish in front is very small. As soon as I turned around, the fish over there was so big. I said, "Old man, there are big fish over there. Why are you fishing here? " He looked at me and said, "Sir, what I caught was breakfast." Yes, a word awakens your greed for life and everything.

On the journey, you can learn a lot of philosophy of life. Another time, in the mountains of India, I cooked chicken for the old lady all day. I said, "I don't want to eat chicken, I want to eat fish!" " "The lady said," what is a fish? "She hasn't even seen it. It's on the mountain. I drew a fish for her with a piece of paper and said, "It's a pity that you haven't eaten it." The old lady looked at me and said, "sir, what's the pity of not eating?" "This is a philosophy of life.

Debut early. I started working in film when I was about 19 years old. At that time, I was sitting with some old-timers, a table of twelve people. I am the youngest. But when I sat down, I was already thinking that one day I would sit down, and I was the oldest. Sure enough, this seems to be a second ago. I went to dinner with someone else last night. I am the oldest as soon as I sit down. So don't think it's a long time, and it will pass in an instant. Speaking of Mexico, I also lived in Mexico for a year. When I went to Mexico, I wanted to buy some and saw some people selling firecrackers and fireworks. I want to buy it for them to see. The friend said, "Mr. Cai, no, no, only the dead can!" " "Why do the dead set off fireworks? In fact, people there have a hard life. People are short-lived and have a lot of contact with death. So when you are exposed to a lot, why not turn death into a happy thing? Then why celebrate when you are alive? People celebrate when they die.

I think young people can do whatever they want. If they have the heart, they will do it for you one day. This is the advantage of being young. Experience life in fun and feel the beauty of life in ordinary fireworks. I went to a restaurant and it was delicious, so I wrote an article to recommend it to everyone. Because business is really not easy, I won't swear casually. At least, the article I wrote was taken away, enlarged in color and posted outside the restaurant. You can visit Hong Kong, both of them. In short, you should do everything very seriously and learn everything. There is a book that teaches you how to make soy sauce. I'll buy it back. Like me, I also practice calligraphy and carve seals. After learning, you will become an expert in everything if you learn more. Therefore, the more skills people have, the less afraid they are. That is, I fly all day, and most planes encounter airflow at night and late at night. This plane is very powerful, and it keeps bumping. Let it jolt. I've been drinking. There is a big and fat Australian sitting next to him. He is always afraid, always afraid, always afraid. Well, after the plane was (firmly) settled, he looked at me and looked at me with satisfaction. He said, "Hey, man, have you ever died?" I'm alive.

Young people, always have some ideals, always have some ambitions, always have something they want to do, and work hard to do it!
