You made it sounds like Robert Zollitsch is now the head conductor or leader of the Zhongyang Minzu Yuetuan aka National Traditional Orchestra of China 中国中央民族乐团, China’s most renowned traditional music orchestra. 
YEAH.... the guy had some crazy love for Chinese traditional music; and since he met Gong Linna back in 2002 in Shanghai, while studying Chinese traditional music and musical instruments at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, the 2 of them fell in love, got married, and had started pursuing their dream together: experimenting the fusion of Chinese and Western traditional music.
Although most of Robert Zollitsch's compositions (including Uneasy aka Tan Te) deployed alot of ancient Chinese poems as lyrics, as well as a combination of Chinese and Western musical instruments, like yang qin, sheng, ruan, cello, violin and accordion, they made extensive use of harmonies, fusing together elements of different cultures, which leads to music that seems to be of traditional Chinese art style with a Western influence.
Personally, I don't see ANYTHING WRONG with their experiment.
As for your statement of him writing Uneasy aka Tan Te for Gong Linna for fame and profit, I guess it was a total misunderstanding on your part.
Back in 2003 Gong Linna already had her first album released in China called "Five Elements" in which she already gave her debut as a songwriter with beautiful lyrics. Her next album "Walking the Path of Life" published in 2005 was a hit and set a landmark in new Chinese art music.
That song Uneasy aka Tan Te that propelled Gong Linna to higher fame in China was just a stroke of fortune. The song was but just one of of Robert Zollitsch's experimental compositions with his new Chinese ~ Bavarian fusion music style back in 2006, and was NEVER released/used in any of Gong Linna's albums or concerts prior to 2009.
It did not get hot in China until late 2009/early 2010 after it became popular winning Gong Linna the Best Singing Award of European World Music Awards in 2009. a far cry from basketball, burgers, baseball, accounting, taxation, QE2 |

lol of course you chime in when he's wrong.
WTF is the "European World Music Awards"? if he's talking about the World Music Awards, that's not even real award. it's just a promotion to get celebrities to Monte Carlo and publicize the Principality. For example they give awards to Paris Hilton. big stars like Lady Gaga dont even bother to pick up their awards from that show
If there's a legit award called the European World Music Award instead of some bullshit some Chinese promoter made up to impress Chinese peasants who dont know any better someone point me to it. ive never heard of that ****** |

Therefore, they flee to Asia where women worship White men instead. It's basically racial sexual musical chairs, where several tens of millions of Chinese men will be the ones left standing in the next generation...even in their own country.
So yes, it is just the mere tip of the iceberg of complete CHINA FAIL. |

lol if poaching other ppl's women is winning, then Chinese can go to Africa and mate, thus "stealing" all their women and beating them at their own game
IS THIS A GOOD SOLUTION FOR YOU?
I dont really see any issue with a Chinese woman choosing to marry a white guy, even if she does just because he's European. I've heard a lot of Chinese (in particular) girls esp from traditionally white-dominated areas like Singapore and HK say outright that they dream of having white babies or marrying white guys. obviously it's a stupid and FOB thing to say... no Asian American girl would be that forthright or honest about their insecurities but personal preference for dating is the most basic human right. makes about as much sense as some criteria that guys use like big boobs or eyelid folds to choose a chick.
what's moronic however is Chinese suddenly worshiping a retarded song because of the perceived "prestige" of world euro competition or whatever the ****** that contest is. as if, nonsense ching chong awarded in Europe means it's GOT TO be superior
still dont know what the competition was that pryuen is talking about. I guess it's possible it's some prestigious thing I've never heard of but never even heard of it |

If you consider population a condition for victory, then China already won.
White men married to Chinese women won't have white kids. White people lost the population war. Chinese men can always take the african/indian women.
Either way, no one really cares about the Chinese men lacking women, that was the whole purpose of population control and the 1 child policy. The problem is the ratio of young to elderly in 20 years time.
I don't even know why people are so obsessed with white women. Go outside, the majority of them are land whales by the time they're 30 years old. I think you're better asking China to make better movies that have attractive asians in them. Because it's all in your fantasy world.
As for gong linna, I've never heard of her and don't care. |

yeah no one is losing sleep about Chinese peasants lacking wives.
malorkayel you dont think white chicks are good looking? as objects esp in media I think that white women are the best looking. they have the best looking bodies
asian chicks are the best IRL though. they have much better skin than white chicks (esp without makeup). less body hair, less BO. better sex. white chicks only have about 5 good years in them before they start getting old.
actually the mixed raced kids in the West will end up being white not asian. the population of Asians is very small <5 percent and will be absorbed like American Indian genes were. esp with the strong preference for white males, most of the girls will marry non-asians. you already see it with tons of quapas (1/4 asians) being born one generation after the explosion of hapas. you will see a significant portion of the population (definitely over 15%) eventually have some Asian genes in 50 years but it'll be like with Hispanics where they might look a bit exotic and everyone has a bit of native but they're basically white. some of them wont even know that one great grandmother or great great grandparents was from Taiwan or Singapore or w/e |

Sure, there are a lot of attractive white girls. No doubt, when I went to school or at work there is always 1 or 2 that stands out. No one really notice the plan or ugly girls.
Beauty doesn't last forever though. So, I've mentally started to gravitate to women that are more realistic, maybe even plain. There is charm in a plain girl that you can be yourself around. Race has started to become less important as standards for probable mate.
There is separation between fantasy and reality. In move and fantasy land, my taste change too often. For a long time I thought that Jennifer Connelly was the hottest woman on earth. One day I saw her while at a restaurant. My friend went to talk to her, but to be honest, she could never live up to the expectation of my fantasy. if that made any sense.
I live in the western world and I'm very open to racial mixing. I have no problem with it even for eastern asian world. Humanity should see each other as human. Just wanted to point out that there is a hell of a lot of Chinese people. |

you feel that way because you have internalized the belief that there are no differences between races and that your own history/ethnicity isn't something that is impossible to preserve.
if the entire world is going to look SE Asian or Indian in 500 years what's the point of having Chinese children... I dont think that's going to happen just like even a overwhelmingly mixed country like Brazil has very significant blue eyed blonde populations in isolation.
but you might be right. human beings evolve over time. The italians are a very different people from the Romans. Egyptians today are not ancient Egyptians and Native Americans of just 500 years ago are completely absorbed into a new race. Mandarin didn't even exist 1000 years ago and English was unintelligible. who knows for sure what our descendants will look like or speak in time?
so yeah I agree that dating choices are something that depends entirely on the individual. when you're ready to have kids though you'll find that a lot of minorities become suddenly race aware: Jews want Jewish sons, blacks want black sons, Indians want Indian sons etc.
the thing about going for an ugly girl is a mirage doood! all women are the same. a lot of guys fall into that trap but it's not like a plain girl who has you on lockdown 10 years into the marriage is going to be satisfied with less attention than a good looking one. even ugly girls nag/cheat/want things their way, esp after kids. although when you're dating, as Ben Franklin wrote, ugly and older women try harder lol.
although I'm sad to hear that Jennifer Connelly disappoints IRL, imo she's a better choice for top Jewess than Scarlet Johansson or natalie portman haha |

because as hezonk will tell you, koreans like you keep bumping/cheating to pump up the view count to hide the fact kpop comes from ancient Mandopop, the originator of TRUE ASIAN MUSIC
soon Moranus will be in this thread to loudly disavow cantopop and declare his eternal allegiance to Bob Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, Neal Diamond, Barbra Streisand, Billy Joel, Phil Spector, Maroon 5, Drake, Lenny Kravitz and any other Jewish acts he can think of. LOOK HOW NOT CHINESE MORANUS IS. ACCEPT HIM. ACEEEEEEEEEEEPT HIM |
