There is a chinese who said crosstalk in the White House, who can play a joke on President Obama and more than two thousand American politicans and the press stood up to applaud for him. His name is Joe Wong (黄西) who was born in hekou baishan shi(白山市),jilin provinc(吉林省). He got to the United States for seience doctor at more than the age of 24.  He has a strong chinese accent,even with a northeastern one.

Joe Wong has been invited to give a speech on the White House news conference in 2010. This is a strong official occasion,meanwhile this is the first time that the speech was given by a Asian people.

Joe Wong hadn't ever studyed abroad, hadn't ever took a flight or tasted a sandwich before he came to Amecica.  Athoug he can repeat 80% english words of the English Dictionary, can not talk to American people smoothly,even call one's name. He failed in playing a sketch show in university, he would be too nervous to say hi to girls ,except his wife.  But he still took crosstalk show instead of  Dr. biochemical as his caree.  His teacher once said to him"How could a chinese be able to make a show so funny!?"

For him,the crosstalk is not only a show,but also more like a road to find his personal value. Most materials of his talk show is based on his bitter life.  He used his own bitter life to make audiences laugh. He said "humour is the best way to face your imperfect life."

Here is the site on his talki show:
