Features: As the editor and host of the "Dialogue with the Stars" column on Phoenix TV's Chinese Channel, Ruan Cishan's "Ruan-style" emphasizes "speaking without fail to shock"—using the shortest, most impactful language to get straight to the core. Following the publication of "Cold and: The Century of Confusion between China and the U.S." and "Peace and War: The Century of Questions between Taiwan and the Mainland" earlier this year, Ruan Cishan has once again released "Dialogue with the Stars." This bilingual edition of "Dialogue with the Stars" is actually a new version of the program, featuring interviews with nearly 30 world leaders and celebrities from around the globe, all previously aired over the past two years. The publication of this book is a heartfelt gift from the "Dialogue with the Stars" program to people from all walks of life. It includes Ruan Cishan's handwritten interview transcripts, notes, reflections, and background analyses from his visits to various countries between 2003 and 2005, revealing his sharp observations of politics and authoritative figures worldwide, as well as the behind-the-scenes stories of his interviews. Unlike the previously published interview collections, this book has three distinctive features:
First, the book is bilingual (Chinese-English), with a strong sense of immediacy, serving as a first-hand source for studying international politics. Readers can enjoy the Chinese version while also experiencing the original thoughts of the interviewees through the authentic English translation. Second, the book is more systematic, featuring updated interviews that make it an excellent gift for those interested in current affairs and politics and who follow Phoenix TV's Chinese Channel. Between 2003 and 2005, the world situation underwent significant changes, and Ruan Cishan's interviews closely followed the times, engaging in in-depth discussions with figures such as British Prime Minister Tony Blair, "Palestine's Iron Lady" Asmaa Ashraf, Hamas leader Zahar, Israeli Deputy Prime Minister and Nobel laureate Shimon Peres, and former WTO Director-General Supachai Panitchakkan on topics like the London bombings, progress in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Hamas's impact on Middle Eastern peace, and the Bush administration's China policy. The content is entirely different from the "Dialogue with the Stars" published in June last year. Third, the book also includes Ruan Cishan's interview notes and links to relevant background information. It not only features incisive commentary on hot topics and global political trends but also critiques world leaders, with some revealing firsthand anecdotes about celebrities.
This book collects more than 20 dialogues between Ruan Cishan, the Chief Editor of Phoenix TV, and world leaders, presented in both Chinese and English. It is highly helpful for understanding global affairs and learning English.
