![]() CHEN CRUSHED U.C. COMPETITION OH, OLIVER! University Challenge's Chinese super-winner Oliver Chen personally wiped out Manchester Uni last week, crushing their Semi-Final hopes and sending them in Jeremy Paxman's words to 'sudden death', whilst cruising Oxford Uni's St John's College & his grateful colleagues to a nail-bitingly close but emphatic win. Watch the last three mins of the show, as the off-screen announcer shouts "ST JOHN'S - CHEN!!" Then, Champion Chen immediately answers the sudden death question right, instantly catapulting St John's to near the top of the competition! Then see the History & Economics graduate punch the air, shout "YES!!!" and then be embraced by his white female team-mate (she's lovely)! Proud to be Chinese? You betcha! ![]() Btw, you've only get today left to watch it, cos this video will be auto-deleted at around 8:30 tonight! So, if you want to keep it for now, pls just download from the BBC iPlayer site by following the simple instructions! The last 3 mins. of the show start at around 25:44. So, here it is - enjoy! ![]() |

he had an unfair cultural advantage with that tiebreaker question not cos he was chinese but because he was american.
exciting match though.

Seriously Wenshu, Why did you feel the need to point that out? Do you worship white people?

I call for a lynch mob, that slitty eye fool obviously cheated and bribed his way to the top by offering to make 1000s of tshirts at cut prices

No, to be honest it isn't just about colour, but about identity and people prepared to join in with others of a different ethnic or cultural background... To be honest, last time you complained that the people featured in my thread were actors, and by implication the mixed-race marriage idea was meaningless, even though the actors are reflecting a growing reality - and promise - of a future of a growing mixture of races and cultures. I feel now I've based the subject of my thread on a real-life person, you haven't acknowledged that - but instead, just switched the subject of your attack to something else instead. I feel that at least you could at least give a little credit for featuring the original person in a real-life situation... Quote:

I won't make the criticism of you that you don't need to read my threads. After all, I think it's my duty to you & others to make the threads interesting, diverse and hopefully, some fun. Still a work in progress, though... Maybe it looks 'BBC-patriotic', and I guess I can understand where you're coming from on this point. But when a former member criticized me about what he saw as over-praise of our achievements, one of the old-timers defended me & said it isn't as though the media have exactly been bending over backwards in pointing out our successes. So I'm trying to redress the balance a little bit. I'm really sorry that you think I've gone too far, and sorry if I've offended you, also. So, maybe I've missed something in the way that I respond. Maybe you think I'm too excitable, but I really don't see what's wrong with specifically pointing out the successes of other Chinese people, in being openly enthusiastic about it, and celebrating it for all to see. Very sorry if another of my posts/threads has upset you. Taking a note of everything you say - even those things I don't agree with you about. I must try to remember that this is a subtle and very polite country, si I'll try to make my threads reflect that reality...

Re: Chinese Champ CHEN Crushes 'Challenge' Competition - & Makes You Proud to be Chin
No, you don't get it! I've already said before: white isn't superior, per se! The only thing that is superior is the situation, because people of different races are interacting on TV. And how many times do you hear the complaint that us Chinese guys never seem to have interractions with women outside our race? Remember the thread about Chinese guys drawing the short straw in inter-racial dating, as just one of many examples??

Re: Chinese Champ CHEN Crushes 'Challenge' Competition - & Makes You Proud to be Chin
fair enough wenshu i'll give you credit for finding someone real and not fictional, albeit still off the telly lol.
i don't think i can change the way you post, i think the change has to come from you. i mean, who gets excited about a chinese guy hugging or celebrating with another person of a different colour? we all hang out with people of different colours, it's not a big deal! we're just as capable as anyone else! the guy's not even in the bloody final or won anything yet, but i suppose that's not the point i'm trying to make. you have basically blown something up that was utterly and completely normal, the excitement emenating from you is NOT SHARED by many... as proven by the amount of mock replies you're getting. don't you see, we're taking the p*ss out of you? you're not a bad guy, you're not mean spirited, and i feel bad for telling you what to do because that's the last thing i want. i believe everyone should have an opinion, i'd be a hypocrite if i want you to stop being who you are. i guess it's meaningless for me to amble on... you should just carry on.

Re: Chinese Champ CHEN Crushes 'Challenge' Competition - & Makes You Proud to be Chin
Some white people like us! It's true! It's true!
A thread to celebrate a white woman hugging some random person who may or may not be BBC? Most retarded thread ever. Seek professional help. Look how this Chinese person working in Britain does his job so well, that he is immediately chased and kissed by a white man and a black man. In the final clip, he is so adored that a people from many ethnicities chase him, drag him to the ground, and then take turns kissing him.
