Talk:Gao Yuanyuan

message: That's funny that so many foreigners who don't understand Chinese and China culture at all but doubt her age here. Let me show some real things happens in China.
First of all, 高媛媛 is a just stupid mistake by the old time web editors, because at that time, they don't know GaoYuanyuan at all. They just type her name by the pronunciation. If you can really read and know Chinese,you will know you can type at least 10 different names according to the pronunciation 'GaoYuanyuan '. And if you really can read Chinese as a Chinese elementary school student, please go to any video site like YOUKU，TUDOU,56， or just buy a DVD of her early movies such as Spicy Love Soup(爱情麻辣烫) and Beijing Bicycle(十七岁的单车). You can find her name on in the credit list is 高圆圆（simplified Chinese of 高圓圓）, never and ever be the 高媛媛. 高媛媛 is just a mistake by some stupid web editors long times ago. No mention there are many sources of her first ads video in 1996 also showed her name is 高圆圆.
Then, let me have the honor to introduce the Chinese education system. Normally, for these people born in 70s and 80s, all the kids will to elementary school at 7, and spend 6 years there. Then go to junior high school at 13, spend 3 years again, comes the senior high school, which means if you are 16, you should be a senior high school student. Then 3 years senior high school, comes the college or university. Please make yourself crystal clear about the two words' differences in Chinese education system.Any institution which needs a student to study for 4 years, means this is an university, even its name contains 'college'. However, most institutions named as XXXXX college, means it only has the right to issue a junior college level diploma. This kind of colleges only need to study for 2 years and intern work for 1 year, totally 3 years to graduate. 高圆圆, her college is just this kind of institution.
So, let me refute some below lovely foreigners'ignorant about Chinese now.
1. Blast hornet's comment about her college. When she enrolled into this college, its name was CHINA LABOR MOVEMENT COLLEGE at that time, like I mentioned above, which is just 3 year college not 4 years university. This college rename itself as China Institute of Industrial Relations after May 2003. They remove the word college to indicate it is an university now. But, 高圆圆 got her junior college level diploma from CHINA LABOR MOVEMENT COLLEGE already in 2002.
Why? Let me show you again. As a Chinese, she born in 1979, started elementary school at age 7 (means 1986), then 6 years there, and 3 years for junior high and another 3 year for senior high school. Means totally 12 years education before college/university.So as her birthday is 1979 and started school career since 1986, after 12 years, it is 1999. Then just went to CHINA LABOR MOVEMENT COLLEGE and spend another 3 happy college years there, and graduated from there at 2002, just one year and five months before this college renamed and upgraded itself in May 2003.
2. Blast hornet's another unsigned comment talking about the so called "reliable sources", about her so called used name "高媛媛" .
Like I mentioned in the very beginning, it is just s stupid mistake by the old time web editors. If this Blast hornet could really read Chinese, please just watch these two old movies online or buy a DVD. The reliable credit title sequences of each film, all tell us a true and clear truth, the name is 高圆圆.
Here is also a video interview of her in 2005, 
http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_cz00XMzAyMTYyOA==.html
There are many her high school friends mentioned their stories during 1995 to 1997. (calculation again! 1986 started elementary school, and 9 years after to senior high school, BINGO, it is 1995 ). This could be a proof if you could hear and understand Chinese.
About the long self-make stories talked by these lovely foreigners below, including Chinese lunar calendar. Please study more about Chinese culture.
OCT, 5, 1975 is not our Mid-autumn Festival of that year. 
OCT, 5, 1979 is and indeed is our Mid-autumn Festival of that year.
Why she emphasizes her name and the birth date? Because, 圆 means round and circle in Chinese. And the Mid-autumn Festival is the day that the moon in China is the most round one! The perfect full moon night of the year! So, 圆圆, means the perfect round round moon!Vince.Lian (talk) 19:09, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

message: She said that since she was born in Mid-Autumn Festival(Lunar Calander), her parents named her as "高圓圓". But according to old data, she's chinese name is mentioned as "高媛媛". If so, Her story about her age and name becomes nothing more than lie

thread_title:  girl - MAZAL TOV! 

message: Many internet sites and people say that gao was born in 1979. But according to many people who know about her best friend Alyssa Chia(Also famous actress in china), she was originally known to be almost as old as Alyssa Chia, when these two actresses met each other at the first time in 2002. And since alyssa was born in 1974, it doesn't add up if gao was really born in 1979. 
Furthermore, since 2002, almost all the Chinese press have described those two actresses as closed friends whose ages are almost same(not as gao is much younger than her best friend). Thus, in my opinion, gao might be known as being born in 1975 before she met Alyssa Chia. And I remember some internet sites which mentioned that gao was born in 1975(But I think some of the sites are now gone). Even though gao's birthyear is known to be 1979, all the sources that sustain her birthyear on her profile are only her insistences. Until she shows her own birth certificate to prove her real birthyear, we need to discuss more about it and need more sources to verify her real birthyear.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.78.203.31 (talk) 15:36, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
