拥抱 (yōng bào) Hug

Tue, 22 May 2012 20:41:33 -0700

拥抱 (yōng bào) Hug

Machines might not be capable of emotions but that doesn’t mean that they don’t like hugging 拥抱(yōng bào) — this one will even give you a free Coke for a wide-armed squeeze. The “hug for Coke” vending machines have been installed across Singapore as part of an ‘Open Happiness’ campaign. They feature the words “Hug Me” on the front in the traditional Coca Cola font and when a user squeezes them from both sides they spring into action, delivering a cold Coca-cola can. Do you feel awkward hugging someone as do many old Chinese people? Do you have story about hugging? Share with us!

Daily Tidbit: 微电影(wēi diàn yǐng)Micro Films

We are living in a “micro” era. After the massive popularity of micro blogs and micro novels, online micro films are now attracting more attention. Micro films 微电影(wēi diàn yǐng) are the product of the combination of traditional films and online videos. As the term suggests, “micro” is the main characteristic; the length of a micro film can be anywhere between three minutes to half an hour. Usually, micro films have small budgets and are completed in a few weeks. The making of a micro film doesn’t require much equipment: a digital video camera, a tripod and a script, plus a director, a cameraman, and a few actors. Do you have a plan to take a micro film of yourself? Which micro films do you like most?
