The most famous Chinese in the contempory world must be Yao
Ming. He is a retired Chinese professional basketball player
who last played for the Houston Rockets of the National
Basketball Association (NBA). At the time of his final season,
he was the tallest active player in the NBA, at 2.29 m (7 ft 6 in).[1]
Dr Sun Yat Sen, the Father of modern China. Sun Yat-sen
University, informally called Zhongshan University
(simplified Chinese: 中山大学; traditional Chinese: 中山大學;
pinyin:Zhōngshān Dàxué), has a main campus in
Zhuhai. The University is named after the man who founded it in 1924 - Sun Yat-sen,
I spent last evening with young people like Yulia to learn
Chinese and we learned Famous Chinese personalities.
My grandpa would have been very proud of me when I
shared my knowledge of Dr Sun Yat Seng. Speaking in
Mandarin was quite scary when you don't have the vocab.
I went on to speak on 2 characters who could be friends,
and I chose Li Na the Tennis French Open Champion and the
first Chinese astronaut. Yang Liwei being launched aboard
Shenzhou 5, becoming the first man sent into space by the
Chinese space program
Finally, I chose Bruce Li in a guessing game.
