Markets are soaring. But that does not make it wise to rush out and buy stocks—what happens next is unlikely to fill investors with glee
秋季經典，在美國又稱世界大賽，馬上就要開打。今年將由美國聯盟冠軍克里夫蘭印地安人隊，對上國家聯盟冠軍芝加哥小熊隊；前者自1948年後就未曾贏過世界大賽冠軍，後者更是自1908年後就與冠軍無緣。這兩隊在求冠之路上的挫敗，加起來超過了170年。不管今年是由哪一隊勝出，都將是締造歷史的一年。我家鄉的明尼蘇達雙城隊，上一次贏得世界大賽冠軍是在1991年，當時的興奮之情卻仍鮮明如昨日。棒球是連接美國和台灣的一座文化橋樑，為了慶祝棒球跨文化的魅力，我們特別拍攝了一支影片。拍攝過程可說是樂趣無窮 --- 梅健華 #FromAITDirector#SportsDiplomacy #WorldSeries

My team, Minnesota Twins, last won in 1991, but I remember the glee I felt like it was yesterday. To commemorate baseball as a cultural bridge between the United States and Taiwan, we recorded a video. We had plenty of fun shooting it…km
