A Foregone Conclusion

After the standing ovation had died down, a visibly teary Christopher Nolan leaned into the microphone. "I am grateful to all of you for your support, but before we leave tonight, I'd like to put a special word of thanks out to Popup Chinese for its tireless efforts promoting my film in China." As the British director gestured towards the Popup Chinese table, the cameras caught a glimpse of Brendan scowling unglamorously at a half-finished translation scrawled on his napkin. They quickly panned back to the stage.

It being Inception Week here at Popup Chinese, we are happy to bring you this Elementary Chinese lesson inspired by the film. If you've been learning Chinese for a few months and are looking for a challenge, join us for this Chinese podcast as we bring you a natural dialogue filled with a lot of film-related vocabulary. This is what people are saying in China these days. Or it is what they are saying in our office at least.
