寒暑假之外,冯琰(David Feng)
会在中国传媒大学教英文课和传播学课
但是一到寒暑假时
冯琰和其他人不同
除了做一些学术研究
另外一个就是开拍纪录片!
英文“全路各站”纪录片《Next Station: China》……
车票都是自己掏钱买的
相机和话筒都是便捷式的
观点都是自己说的
是源自他长期居留在海外的英文思维方式
用原汁原味的英文告诉海外受众
如何用好奇之心发现中国铁路之美……
今天,继续听冯琰讲列车旁,车站里的故事……
33、定州东
'Never mind the station looking somewhat square... the trains add all that zing needed.'

40、大连
'Even at one of those newer stations, the classic Green Trains still look unique.'
