Written by admin on March 8th, 2010
Dear frustrated Chinese Learner,
It’s the time of year for me to offer you a little “bribeâ€.
Yep, Spring is near and so is warmer weather! Because of this special
time of year I’m about to give away the whole enchilada.
Here’s what’s going on: I just found out that you haven’t
tried my new program “Learn Chinese from Moviesâ€.
Why haven’t you checked out this program yet? It’s new, getting
great reviews, no refunds (yet), and has almost caused a riot among
the big language learning companies (Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur’s…).
You will be learning these fast-track Chinese-learning secrets while
leaving your other Chinese-learning friends in the dust, shaking their
heads.
Okay – I’m sure you have your reasons for not looking at this
program. BUT BECAUSE IT'S APPROACHING SPRING, I’M GOING TO MAKE YOU
(AND THOSE FEW OTHER GUYS) A DEAL .
Here it is:
* If you get the program BEFORE SUNDAY, MARCH 28TH, 2010, I will
rush-ship you a huge package of Bonus Chinese-Learning goodies.
You’ll get my flashcard package (view on any iPod, PSP, etc)
currently selling for $39 – but I will DOUBLE the guarantee period
(from one year to two full years, no questions asked).
* I will also send you – FREE – Learn Chinese from Movies (LCFM)
“On-the-Go Video Package†- portable videos that can be played in
any portable device (cell phone, iPhone/iPod, etc, etc). Selling at
$47…but it’s yours to keep FREE.
These videos will skyrocket your Chinese level, using my
“magical†subtitles that have been looked over (ie correct and
revised) by Chinese professors. (Yes, my other subtitles did have a
couple errors - due to poopy software. These subtitles do not! - or at
least no one has found them yet).
* PLUS – you’ll get a FREE “LCFM Learning Guide†that gives
you a PDF TRANSCRIPT OF ALL THE “MAGIC†SUBTITLES used in each
line of the movie. You can use this to quickly read over every line of
the movie.
* THERE’S MORE – a LOT more. You’ll also get access to a
BADASS MOUSE-OVER TOOL that _instantly_ tells you the meaning (and
pinyin) of any Chinese character/word for any Chinese MSN message,
Chinese email, or Chinese webpage.
_* ANOTHER THING_ - you will get a free DICTIONARY that can be
INSTALLED ON ANY CELL PHONE – no matter how old or crappy your phone
is. The dictionary contains over 80,000 CHINESE WORDS AND PHRASES.
Stuck in China in a Chinese supermarket and forget how to say “flied
rice� This dictionary will help you out on the spot instead of
playing a long (and not fun) game of charades.
* WAIT…this “bribe†getter better! Not good at scheduling your
“learning Chinese†time and need something to tell you what you
should work on every day? I’ve included a crazily detailed STUDY
GUIDE PROGRAM that will get you reading most of a Chinese newspaper in
no time. I will ALSO SEND YOU THIS if you order today.
* HOLD ON…there’s even MORE! I will _also_ send you SECRET
Chinese character remembering method that instantly reveals the
mystery of why each Chinese character is written the way it is. This
method alone will skyrocket your Chinese, transforming these “lines
and squiggles†into meaningful, easy-to-remember pictures and ideas.
And…you can KEEP all these things listed above even if you later
decide to return my Learn Chinese from Movies Program. This means…no
matter what you do…you will end up with the secret to massive
fast-tracking Chinese learning power. For FREE too.
That means you’re getting _$76+ DOLLARS OF FREE STUF_f and other
tools that I’ve never revealed to anyone. You get to KEEP the
flashcard package, the on-the-go video package, the LCFM Learning
Guide, the dictionary, the mouse-over tool, the study guide program,
and the “transforming lines and squiggles†method. People are
already paying money for most of these things, but…
FOR YOU, IT’S FREE,
IF YOU CHOOSE.
This is a pretty ridiculous offer, you realize. Not much profit at
all, giving away currently-selling materials for free, and stuffing
the package with other stuff that took me both years to discover and
months to make.
No problem. It’s Spring, the time to start things off right!
This info really is the best stuff for learning Chinese, and really
will skyrocket your Chinese level in a matter of days. So…I want you
to know what all the fuss is about.
But there is a “catchâ€. I've only put together 22 of these huge
packages for this Spring Special – and once the packages are all
gone this deal is history.
So if I don’t hear from you within the next 11 days, I will pass
your’s along. No worries – I definitely will NOT be stuck with
this. But if you’re at all interested in this mega-generous RISK
FREE offer, you need to act right now.
BUY THE _LEARN CHINESE FROM MOVIES PROGRAM_ NOW AND ALSO GET THIS
HUGE SACK OF FREE GOODIES. IF YOU ARE ANYWAY DISSATISFIED WITH THE
LEARN CHINESE FROM MOVIES PROGRAM, YOU CAN GET A 100% REFUND WITHIN 60
DAYS AND KEEP ALL THE FREE GOODIES!
Or send me an email at..
dagwood at learn-chinese-from-movies dot com.
You’ll have your fat package (stuff with free videos, tools, and
Chinese-learning methods) in a few days. It's Spring!! What a great
way to kick-start your Chinese (and, perhaps, your career).
It’s time for you to act right now Thanks,
- Darren Seabrook
P.S. Please read the original letter below now. I know you’ll get
a kick out of it.
WHY ARE “REPUTABLE†CHINESE LANGUAGE LEARNING SCHOOLS AND
CORPORATIONS ARE SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER ABOUT THE SIMPLE “LEARN
CHINESE FROM MOVIES (LCFM) LANGUAGE LEARNING PROGRAM†THAT WILL HAVE
YOU READING MOST OF A CHINESE NEWSPAPER IN A MATTER OF DAYS!
WHY? BECAUSE THIS SECRET FAST-TRACKING LEARNING METHOD IS SIMPLY NOT
TAUGHT IN ANY CHINESE LANGUAGE LEARNING PRODUCT, IT’S NOT TAUGHT IN
ANY CHINESE LANGUAGE LEARNING BOOK/CD/DVD, AND IT’S NOT TAUGHT IN
ANY UNIVERSITY BY ANY CHINESE PROFESSOR, TEACHER, OR TUTOR.
THESE NEW CHINESE-LEARNING MATERIALS AND SECRETS ARE PERFECT FOR ANY
PERSON WHO IS INTERESTED IN LEARNING CHINESE, WHO DO NOT WANT TO FOCUS
ON “GRAMMAR RULES". THIS IS A PROGRAM THAT LEARNS CHINESE FOR YOU.
THE RESULT: YOUR ABILITY TO READ MOST OF A CHINESE NEWSPAPER (OVER
1700 CHINESE CHARACTERS) AND HOLD A CONVERSATION IN A MATTER OF 3
MONTHS OR LESS.
6 years ago I came to Shanghai on a teaching assignment, planned to
go straight back to Canada after I finished, but got sucked into the
whole Chinese culture, decided to stay and learn Chinese. I tried to
learn Chinese at reputable universities here in Shanghai (Donghua Da
Xue, Hua Dong Shi Fan Da Xue), I tried tutors, and I bought a few
online/DVD Chinese Learning programs.
None of these methods worked for me. Studying seemed more like a
chore – writing characters over and over again, memorizing
vocabulary lists. Nothing was sticking – there had to be a better
way.
My university classmates, EVEN AFTER STUDYING CHINESE FOR 2 YEARS
COULD NOT EVEN HOLD A CONVERSATION WITH A NATIVE CHINESE SPEAKER. The
courses are so drawn out. I mean, really, 2,3,4 or more years to learn
a language? I don't think so. They never mention that:
LEARNING LANGUAGES FROM MOVIES IS THE MOST POWERFUL AND FASTEST WAY
TO LEARN A LANGUAGE.
Chinese language classes are just textbooks and teachers. What a
great way to turn you OFF a language. Instead of getting bored in a
classroom, why not get excited and watch a movie with
"MAGIC" SUBTITLES THAT WILL LEARN CHINESE FOR YOU.
How do other parts of the world learn English? That's right, through
Hollywood/American movies. I remember meeting this one Chinese guy
named Rocky who had the best English I've ever heard. HOW DID HE LEARN
HIS ENGLISH? FROM AL PACINO MOVIES! The guy swore a bit too much, but
other than that it was flawless!
So, DOESN'T IT MAKE SENSE THAT WE CAN LEARN CHINESE THROUGH CHINESE
MOVIES? You bet it does!
WOULDN'T THOSE EXPENSIVE INTERACTIVE CHINESE LEARNING DVD PROGRAMS BE
BETTER THAN MINE?
Short answer - NO!
Most online/DVD/CD programs I bought were way overpriced and were
lacking in so many ways, it was unbearable and utterly unbelievable.
Knowing what I know now
I WOULDN'T USE THESE "REPUTABLE" PROGRAMS EVEN IF THEY WERE FREE.
WHY?
ALL THESE "REPUTABLE" ONLINE/DVD/CD PROGRAMS HAVE ONE OR ALL OF
THESE PITFALLS:
* Foreigners (ie non-native Chinese speakers) speaking a Chinese
dialogue with terrible tones
(LEARN CHINESE FROM MOVIES - LCFM - HAS CHINESE PEOPLE WITH PERFECT
TONES!)
* Did not teach a single Chinese character, only Pinyin.
(YOU ACTUALLY LEARN CHINESE FASTER IF YOU LEARN CHINESE CHARACTERS -
SEE BELOW)
* Didn’t have a transcript of the dialogue.
(LCFM HAS BADASS TRANSCRIPTS! SEE BELOW)
* Only taught a few hundred words or characters
(LCFM HAS OVER 1700 CHINESE CHARACTERS, SEE BELOW!)
* Terrible animated dialogues, usually with 3$ computer microphone
audio.
(LCFM USES A BADASS MOVIE INSTEAD! SEE BELOW)
* “Interactive†programs have this so-called “Voice
Recognition Software†that says if your pronunciation is “rightâ€
or “wrongâ€. This software, however, can not distinguish between
similar pinyin sounds like z-, zh-, j. So, basically, it’s
uselessunless terrible pronunciation is your goal.
(LCFM SHOWS YOUR HOW TO PRONOUNCE EVERYTHING PERFECTLY!)
* Did not have anything for learning “on-the-go†- ie, videos,
flashcards for iPod/iPhone, PSP, etc.
(LCFM DOES! SEE BELOW!)
* Did not teach Chinese from a Chinese movie
(LCFM USES A BADASS MOVIE!)
THE LEARN CHINESE FROM MOVIES (LCFM) PROGRAM DOES NOT HAVE ANY OF THE
PITFALLS OF "REPUTABLE" DVD/CD/ONLINE PRODUCTS!
INSTEAD
THE LCFM PROGRAM INCLUDES THESE FEATURES:
LCFM teaches Chinese Characters because LEARNING _ONLY _PINYIN WILL
SLOW YOU DOWN. _So many "pinyin-only-learners" look back in REGRET,
knowing they should have started with Characters from the get-go.
Chinese characters look intimidating, but they're not all all, as I
will show you in this progra__m_
_LCFM has badass movie transcripts. To learn any language A
TRANSCRIPT IS A MUST, it jump starts your learning by pairing up
visuals with audio - especially Chinese because of their very
visual/pictographical writing system_
LCFM teaches you enough characters to read most of a Chinese
newpaper - 1700!
_ALSO, R__EADING BODY LANGUAGE, LOOKING AT GESTURES, AND HAVING
DECENT AUDIO - LIKE FROM MOVIES - IS IDEAL WHEN LEARNING A LANGUAGE._
LCFM WILL SHOW YOU HOW TO SPEAK EACH WORD PERFECTLY.
LCFM PROGRAM IS THE ONLY ONE ON THE MARKET that uses a full-length
Chinese movie, with "magical" subtitles that will LEARN CHINESE FOR
YOU.
I don’t mean to come across as this big “hater†– go ahead
and try all these other "reputable" online/DVD/CD programs and see
what you think. If you like them, that’s great. But if you don’t,
maybe it’s time to try something new.
Anyways, my point is that during my Chinese learning road to
“fluency†I realized that there were many downfalls in every
method for teaching Chinese.
I really like movies, and I really like learning Chinese. Why
don’t I just learn Chinese from movies? But, there’s only one
problem – I only knew a few Chinese characters (at that time) –
the rest of the characters I simply couldn't read or pronounce. It’d
be really cool if the movie had pinyin too. So I thought why don’t I
take a cool Chinese movie and add my own Chinese, Pinyin, and English
subtitles. And that’s what I did and it worked pretty well for me.
But sometimes I forgot which Chinese character had which meaning and I
DIDN’T WANT TO SEARCH IN A DICTIONARY EVERY TIME I FORGOT A CHINESE
CHARACTER. So I thought I’d go ahead and add a word-for-word (WFW)
DIRECT TRANSLATION LINE.
THE WORD-FOR-WORD DIRECT TRANSLATION LINE (SEE PICTURE BELOW) SAVES
YOU HOURS OF TIME. YOU DO NOT NEED TO USE A DICTIONARY TO SEARCH FOR
INDIVIDUAL WORDS!
Anyways, after I added these “magical†subtitles it looked like
this:
I did this for a few movies and then just watched the movies over
and over again UNTIL I KNEW ALMOST EVERY WORD AND EVERY LINE OF THE
MOVIE.
IT ABSOLUTELY SKYROCKETED MY CHINESE LEVEL.
I could pick up those super-hot Chinese girls with
non-existent-English with my new silky-smooth Chinese. I got JOB
OFFERS through my new Chinese friends at companies in Shanghai.
TRAVELLING through China was now a breeze and so much more enjoyable.
GETTING CHINESE PRICES - for food, housing (buying and renting),
maids, clothes - comes with good Chinese skills. You can basically
live like a Chinese person, which can very super inexpensive! You can
save money and be efficient at the same. In general, MY QUALITY OF
LIFE IMPROVED and I BECAME MUCH HAPPIER. Even if you just go to China
often for business, your Chinese skills MAKES EVERYTHING MORE
ENJOYABLE.
So back to my story - my friend saw these videos I made on my
computer with these "magic" subtitles one day and later convinces me
to share these with some more people.
I put a few videos on YOUTUBE. Before I knew it, some videos had
received:
OVER 180,000 VIEWS!!!!!!
I was blown away.
During the first year, a got a few hundred emails and lots of
youtube comments as well as close to 85 Youtube users subscribed to my
“channel†(If you’re a youtube user, you’ll know that this is
quite a high number for a niche like this). People were leaving
unbelievably nice comments and loved the whole “magic subtitlesâ€
concept (Chinese, Pinyin, WFW, English subtitles) and wanted more.
HERE'S AN EMAIL FROM DAVE WHO JUST GOT TO SHANGHAI:
_Hi there, just wanted to say thanks so much for putting together
the subs for these movies. I've just moved to Shanghai and doing a lot
of self-study, and I've found them incredibly helpful. They've really
helped me a lot with my speaking and listening skills. I feel like I'm
picking up the language a lot more because of what you've done. It's
really empowering and really expands my world since English is very
sparse here, and in many cases, nonexistent._
_Much, much appreciated._
_Cheers_
_Dave_
HERE'S ANOTHER FROM YOUTUBE USER CROCK703:
_This is a great way to passively studying language.. the
educational videos get so boring._
HERE'S ANOTHER EMAIL I GOT FROM DAVID (A DIFFERENT DAVE!) WHO EVEN
WANTED TO HELP ME MAKE THE PRODUCT FOR FREE:
_Learning Chinese through watching movies is a great idea, and I
have tried doing it myself. But without pinyin subtitles (I don't have
time for hanzi) I don't learn much from the movies. I got an English
transcript of a few Chinese movies (original version) and translated
it into Chinese (with my tutor). I then tried to watch the movie but
even though my translation was good it was not very close to the
actual dialogue in Chinese._
_I am glad someone else has taken up the challenge, and am happy to
support your efforts at least through purchasing the product. Tell me
if there is any other way I can help out._
_Dave_
HERE'S AN EMAIL FROM KEVIN (WHO ALSO BOUGHT THE DVD) WHO ALSO WANTED
A DVD TO WATCH WHILE ON THE COUCH WITH PINYIN SUBTITLES. HE ALSO
BRINGS UP A GOOD POINT ABOUT WATCHING CHINESE MOVIES IN THE THEATRE:
Hi Darren, For myself, the product I would really like is DVDs with
pinyin subtitles, like what you have on your site already, but a full
DVD so I can sit on the couch get comfortable on watch the whole
thing. Also pinyin transcripts of the movies would even be great with
the characters and english would be great too. so you can read the
transcipts before you watch the movies, then when we watch the movie
you dont even need the pinyin subtitles on the screen and just focus
on building up your skill to watch the movies like you would have, say
in a theater. Best, Kevin McKenzie
_Hi Darren,_

Here is a screen shot of the Youtube Channel comments from some of
my loyal subscribers:
Their emails and comments had a common theme. Almost everyone
wanted:
A PHYSICAL DVD WHERE YOU CAN _MIX AND MATCH_ THE SUBTITLES THAT YOU
WANT.
For example, if you just wanted pinyin subtitles then you can select
just that. If you just wanted Pinyin and English subtitles, you can
select that too. If you wanted Chinese/Pinyin/English or
Chinese/Pinyin or Pinyin/WFW, Traditional Chinese/Pinyin, etc, etc.
I didn’t really want to go through the trouble of creating this
DVD, I wanted just continue teaching high school math and travelling
in Asia on my holidays. BUT THE EMAILS JUST KEPT COMING. So I had a
choice to make – either change email addresses (which I really hate
doing) or create this DVD. So I chose to create the DVD. I had never
created a DVD before, let alone a DVD with multiple subtitles. It was
quite a challenge and took me about half a year to complete. All the
while
I KEPT GETTING EMAILS FROM PEOPLE ASKING ME WHEN THE DVD WILL BE
COMPLETED, such as this one from a guy named Mark:
_How's the DVD coming. I'm ready to be your first customer. No rush.
i just wanted to make sure you didn't forget._
So, for the “giving back to the world†part of my life I WANT TO
SHARE MY LITTLE SECRET PROGRAM WITH YOU. Keep in mind, I’m not some
sort of professional Chinese teacher. In fact, most Chinese teachers
are furious with me and my Learn Chinese from Movies method of
teaching.
WHAT DO YOU GET WHEN YOU BUY THIS PROGRAM?
* LEARN CHINESE FROM MOVIES DVD WITH "ONE OF THE GREATEST CHINESE
FILMS EVER MADE" (SPRING IN A SMALL TOWN) WITH "MAGIC" SUBTITLES THAT
TEACH CHINESE FOR YOU

LEARNERS!
* CONTAINS 15 SUBTITLE CHOICES: MIX AND MATCH SIMPLIFIED CHINESE,
TRADITIONAL CHINESE, PINYIN, WORD-FOR-WORD (WFW) ENGLISH (DIRECT
TRANSLATION), AND ENGLISH. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED SO THAT AFTER
YOU'VE WATCH THE MOVIE A FEW TIMES YOU CAN "TAKE OFF YOUR TRAINING
WHEELS" AND JUST WATCH THE MOVIE WITH CHINESE SUBTITLES. IN THE
BEGINNING, HOWEVER, YOU PROBABLY WILL WANT TO WATCH THE MOVIE WITH
PINYIN AND COMBINED IT WITH ANOTHER CHOICE (WFW, ENGLISH, ETC).
* YOU WILL LEARN OVER 1700 CHINESE CHARACTERS (ENOUGH TO READ MOST
OF A CHINESE NEWSPAPER) IN 3 MONTHS OR LESS!
* TRADITIONAL (TAIWAN, HONG KONG) AND SIMPLIFIED (MAINLAND CHINA)
SUBTITLE OPTIONS ALSO AVAILABLE

REMOVABLE AND MIX-AND-MATCHABLE SUBTITLE CHOICES. THE SECOND DVD
CONTAINING LOADS OF GUIDES, TOOLS, TRANSCRIPTS, AND CHARTS.
***WORKS ON BOTH PC AND MAC COMPUTERS***
* This program includes files in the following formats: DVD, jpeg,
PDF, mp4, avi. These formats do not need any special program to open
them, you can play them right away on your Mac or PC.
The program is not perfect: Because it is an old movie (Spring in a
Small Town), about 2-3 times in the movie the audio will cut out.
There is no way around this – it’s old. The movie is, however,
known as “The Greatest Chinese Film Ever Madeâ€. It takes place
after the war and it’s a story about a woman with a love dilemma.
You follow Yuwen on her emotional rollercoaster ride as she must
choose between an old childhood flame - a successful doctor from
Shanghai - and her now-decrepit husband.
WON’T THE MOVIE INCLUDE CHINESE THAT IS TOO OLD FASHIONED?
Nope! The language style used in very every day spoken Chinese and
is still used today. There’s nothing dated about the language used.
It’s timeless
Watch it before some "reputable" corporation buys me out and makes
the program worse and more expensive!
My product isn’t for everybody. It isn’t for people who hate
watching movies, and it isn’t for people who don’t want to commit
at least 2 months of their lives to almost mastering one of the
hottest languages in the world. But if you love watching movies and
you are willing to commit at least 2 months of your life learning
Chinese, then this product is for you!
