Smart guy

There should be more such Chinese academics talking about the Chinese view. In the west it is not well understood.

When a speaker speaks, I dont get distracted by his overall presentation. In fact, I placed more attention by his understanding of the subject matter and by the materials he used to convey his message to his audience. He is able to do both as I have already had some basic knowledge on the subject matter and it's a matter of having a deeper understanding after listening to this professor. For someone who hardly need to use his 2nd language, I consider him being very accommodative to accept the Institute's invitation! Thanks Professor, for allowing me to understand China much better.

I am laughing, The Western audience are being tortured. But he speaks the truth, I respect him for that. 😂😂 From Singapore.

Well said.

A tangential point, I believe the term 'Globalisation/Anti-globalisation' is often used erroneously, especially by classicists, who's perspective is better described as anti-universalism. It bemuses me that much of humanity moved from polytheism, to monotheism, a move towards a single harmonious position, yet now academic revelations have, & are, showing us the true universal answers, classicism is now attempting to move away from the singular, because their traditional explanations do not conform with discovery. The truth is more fundamental to sustainability than belief. Onwards & Forwards.

Yan's English is very typically Chinese, the same with me hahaha🤣 I understand English well, but cant express myself well. its so comforting to realize that I have the same English level with a top level professor.

Once upon a time there was a power name USA

His English is not perfect but expressing very well 👍

Cold war has & will bring initiator to its knees. It serve no purpose but serving as assertive methods for supremacy taking the place of hot war ( replacing hot war -- it is also destructive in nature ). Cold war is very much attached to US foreign policy. As cold war amphesized more on phycological wellbeing shaped anxieties, apprehensions, emotional response on the opponent in the form of mental warfare that could translated into actions to neutralise the effects therefore each responses will lead to another level of responses by another until either one worn off. It is utterly wastage. This is the reason the resources of a country goes to waste though without any concrete results. It is an assertions of supremacy. Thats how a lot of money wasted for this & its achive nothing, it is just brandishment of supremacy. In its worst case it could excercebate into much serious situations or hot war ( a cold war with Russia eventually turned to Hot war - no one ever learn ). If US detach themself from cold war, there are so much time & resources they would be able to focus & strengthen USA but they seem to enjoy cold war in assertion of supremacy. Actually, from what you see today, an assertions to no where but self destructions. US just simply focus elsewhere or others but not on their own wellbeing & often in conflict & confrontations. Indeed, todays world's conditions is actually resulted from these faulty cold war. Todate, those days cold war with Soviet, has US achieve anythings ?. Today, Russia is much more powerful whereas US saddled with debts ridden & economic problems at home. Power & strength, shaped partly by NATO while Russia is alone. So, what sort of supremacy are we talking about. So, what Cold war did to US spoke for itselt. Has the cold war strengthen USA ? Just ask this simple question. Has US achieve anythings thus far ?. Is it merely benefiting or in fulfillment the wishes of political minions ?. Infact , The cold war & Economic war initiated by the west with Russia unfortunately revealing the true weaknesses of the West. Considering, if the West had adopted a much modest civilised & practical strategic approaches , the true strength or weakness of the West will still be unknown to others even they're not. This is actually a strength. But for now, it has revealed its true color. In the world relationship, your weaknesses will be translated accordingly. In comparison, taking into consideration of various aspects, in the eyes of Russia, NATO is much weaker then before the break out of Ukraine war. The worst is, the EU itself are saddle with European malaise & this is weaknesses. The biggest challenge & danger to the world now is, hitherto, ' the West manages its weaknesses ( the supposedly strong state living up to its image ). Will the hell break loose ?. For better world Bang

if china don't explain to the world , the world would accuse china of many things known or unknown.

Freedom of speech is a beautiful thing!

tis epic to listen a chinese scolar with his commi ideas

西方学者相信他这套，也太天真了……

'Rules Based Orders' and International 'Laws' can change when it's against their Weaknesses but it's different when other Countries rise above or do better; they cannot do the same. Just like America can supply Weapons to Israel for Genocide but it's not right for China to support Russia in anyway. But what they do not know is, there are other Countries on the rise .... this means Western Countries is not only Competing with China but Countries like India, Brazil, Africa .. which have combine popuationof more than 4.6 Billion against 370 million.

他讲的内容太粗浅了，他以为观众是不关注世界政治的大一新生吗？尴尬死了！

The speech by 5he chinese professor is too long. He is knowledgeable but not a good speaker because of his English.

Xijingping the emperor for life and Chinese Communist Party propaganda 😂😂😂😂😂

Although the substance of the talk has many good points, Yan Xuetong's public speaking has unintendedly created a negative attitude toward China due to unprofessional public speaking. 1)Complaining tone of voice instead of confident speaking. 2) Arrogant manner, body language, the neck-tie when sitting, the manner in drinking water, etc. are unprofessional. 3) Lack of proper preparation between microphone and power points. 4) Insufficient spoken English in grammar and pronunciation i.e. Trump, not Tramp. 5) Lack of organization when it's too long and detailed, making key points unclear. 6) Let the audience know that the word "outer" is equivalent to "foreign" in the Western world. 7) Learn to use a proper word as in academics i.e. the word 'clever' has a negative connotation. Quality is essential if China aims to be accepted and respected in the United States.
