That's right. In the states, you can watch great concerts, say, from
Great Performances at PBS. And in China, CCTV also broadcasts great
concerts from the west. So when "Danish Opera Singer" boasted he was
hailed as a hero in China, I simply don't believe it. Chinese people
are not that dumb, they can tell who's accomplished musican, who's
not. That person boasted himself out of proportion!!!
Chinese saying "Before you boast, don't forget to write a script so
that at least it can make some sense!" 吹牛也要草稿吧!!!
He is fooling nobody except his supporters from rec.music.opera and
those thugs from soc.culture.china.
