I want to be a part of bringing boba to the masses, but not like this.

我想參與把波霸帶給大眾，但不是這樣的。

So for that reason, I'm out. Simu says no. Dragon Zen makes international headlines after guest Dragon Simu Liu calls out a boba tea company for cultural appropriation.

是以，我退出。劉思沐說不龍禪》成為國際頭條新聞，因為嘉賓 "龍 "劉思沐（Simu Liu）斥責一家波霸茶公司文化挪用。

情態副詞

I started this venture company primarily to uplift minority entrepreneurs.

我創辦這家風險投資公司的主要目的是扶持少數民族企業家。

And not only do I feel like this is not happening here, but that I would be uplifting a business that is profiting off of something that feels so dear to my cultural heritage. The company pitches their version of a bottled boba tea, which they claim would be a healthier version of the popular drink.

我不僅覺得這種事情不會在這裡發生，而且我還覺得我在助長一個企業的氣焰，而這個企業卻在利用對我的文化傳統來說非常珍貴的東西來牟利。該公司推銷他們的瓶裝波霸茶，聲稱這是一種更健康的流行飲料。

There's an issue of taking something that's very distinctly Asian in its identity and quote unquote, making it better, which I have an issue with.  So Tyrone, I feel like a lot of people were triggered by many parts of this segment.

這就涉及到一個問題，那就是把一個具有非常明顯亞洲特徵的東西，用不引人注意的話說就是 "讓它變得更好"，我對此有異議。  是以，泰隆，我覺得很多人都被這段話的很多部分所觸動。

And one of them was the business owners referring to boba as almost like a mystery drink where you don't know what's in the contents.

其中之一是，企業主把波霸說成是一種神祕飲料，你不知道里面的成分是什麼。

And that speaks to stereotypes about East Asian food, particularly Chinese food and where it comes from and what's in it and whether or not it's healthy.

這說明了人們對東亞食品，尤其是中國食品的刻板印象，也說明了這些食品的來源、成分以及是否健康。

And then later the business owners say that they have a healthier version, which brings up all of those stereotypes.

後來，企業主們又說，他們有一個更健康的版本，這就帶來了所有這些刻板印象。

And I feel like part of the reason CIMU is reacting like that was for that reason.  Well, it's 100%.

我覺得，CIMU之所以會做出這樣的反應，部分原因就在於此。  嗯，百分之百是這樣。

You're playing on a history that's based on stereotypes.

你是在玩弄基於刻板印象的歷史。

Post-broadcast backlash is swift against the makers of the boba tea and towards Dragon, Manjeet Minhas, who ends up buying into the company and defends herself to CIMU.

播出後，蕎麥茶製造商和 "龍 "曼吉特-明哈斯（Manjeet Minhas）迅速遭到反擊，曼吉特-明哈斯最終收購了這家公司，並向 CIMU 進行了自我辯護。

It makes me sad that people are, you know, they're drinking boba with a raccoon with a sun.

這讓我很難過，人們，你知道，他們和一隻浣熊一起喝著波霸，還帶著太陽。

It doesn't mean that they don't have the opportunity to change and do that.

這並不意味著他們沒有機會改變和做到這一點。

Following the criticism though, Manjeet pulls her funding with the company and releases this statement on her Instagram.

在受到責備後，Manjeet 取消了對該公司的資助，並在她的 Instagram 上發表了以下聲明。

After more reflection, due diligence, and listening to many of your opinions, I will not be investing in boba tea.  But the situation is so heated that CIMU takes to his TikTok to remind people to be kind.

經過更多的思考、盡職調查，並聽取了大家的許多意見後，我不會再投資蕎麥茶了。  但事態如此激烈，CIMU 在他的 TikTok 上提醒大家要善待他人。

I've been made aware that the business owners have received a lot of the death threats.

我已經知道，企業主收到了很多死亡威脅。

It's never okay to bully and harass online.  The makers of boba also released a statement on their Instagram page stating that, quote, CIMU raised very valid points regarding cultural appropriation and we welcome this learning opportunity. You know what, Tyrone?

在網上欺凌和騷擾是絕對不允許的。  波霸的製作者也在他們的 Instagram 頁面上發表了一份聲明，稱 "CIMU 就文化挪用問題提出了非常有道理的觀點，我們歡迎這次學習機會。你知道嗎，泰隆？

Boba originated in Taiwan and there are many Taiwanese entrepreneurs here in Canada and Toronto that have boba shops.

波霸起源於臺灣，在加拿大和多倫多有很多臺灣企業家開了波霸店。
