Knowledge helps focus options, but it can also identify powerlessness as easily. Fortunately for her, at this point in time, there are a number of trends that favor the David(ette)s vs the Goliaths if executed well. And she seems capable.</p> </div></div></div> Thu, 09 Aug 2018 16:45:23 +0000 PeraclesPlease comment 255949 at http://dagblog.com WOW.

What a brilliant incredible woman. What a story about how globalization has made the other able to understand other cultures!  I doubt very much there's only one of her in this brave new communication world. What it says to me in the end: no more empire ambitions, that's history, no more can do:</p> <blockquote> <p>If I am not scared to do this in China, I am not going to be scared of some Brooklyn hipsters who think they can come to China, leave and throw a Chinese woman under the bus. Things are not perfect in my country, we struggle very hard to fix our problems and catch up in many ways, but we have a sense of right- and this was not right.</p> <p>Right now, I have no power. Almost every American journalist I contacted for help ignored me. I was told “hire a lawyer” as if I have the means for that. Even when I spoke to American lawyers they said technically the written agreement was not a legal contract so it would be easy for Vice to wriggle out of it- since they have an army of high priced attorneys. I’m just a Chinese girl fighting a huge media empire that does things like this to people every day without consequence. Things like right and wrong don’t matter; they can do anything they like to me. I couldn’t even get a visa to America to fight them. I’d stand in front of their office and shout all day if I could. The message everyone gives me is to simply give up, they are American, they are too big, too rich, too powerful.</p> <p>But I won’t give up because what they did to me was wrong.</p> </blockquote> <p>Just so impressive, she gets both cultures through and through. Maybe the only thing she doesn't realize yet: knowledge is power.</p> </div></div></div> Thu, 09 Aug 2018 16:36:49 +0000 artappraiser comment 255948 at http://dagblog.com
