具体描述
Standup comic, actor and fan favorite from HBO's Silicon Valley and the film Crazy Rich Asians shares his memoir of growing up as a Chinese immigrant in California and making it in Hollywood.
"I turned down a job in finance to pursue a career in stand-up comedy. My dad thought I was crazy. But I figured it was better to disappoint my parents for a few years than to disappoint myself for the rest of my life. I had to disappoint them in order to pursue what I loved. That was the only way to have my Chinese turnip cake and eat an American apple pie too."
Jimmy O. Yang is a standup comedian, film and TV actor and fan favorite as the character Jian Yang from the popular HBO series Silicon Valley. In How to American, he shares his story of growing up as a Chinese immigrant who pursued a Hollywood career against the wishes of his parents: Yang arrived in Los Angeles from Hong Kong at age 13, learned English by watching BET RapCity for three hours a day, and worked as a strip club DJ while pursuing his comedy career. He chronicles a near deportation episode during a college trip Tijuana to finally becoming a proud US citizen ten years later. Featuring those and many other hilarious stories, while sharing some hard-earned lessons, How to American mocks stereotypes while offering tongue in cheek advice on pursuing the American dreams of fame, fortune, and strippers.

读后感
This is the very first audible book I've ever listened to and it absolutely blew my mind with how easy and natural the narration is for me to immerse into. I didn't know Jimmy O.Yang at all before this book and had never seen the hit tv show silicon valley ...
评分或许是无数美国梦故事里面一个并没不太特别的故事，但是作为少数中国移民的故事还是有一些代表性的。感受最深的是他作为一个移民试图融入一个陌生国家的心路历程。为了不被别人视为一个 Asian boy，为了看起来更「美国化」，反而刻意做了一些奇怪的 事情。「群体认同感」真得是...
评分 评分看了两页就觉得，这可真是一个不好好读书的浪里小白条，这么光明正大地展示自己曾经的尴尬处境也是不易。或许喜剧正是那一道窗口，可以笑着说出狼狈，用幽默化解严肃。 其中有很多流行文化的融入，比如吐槽他爸爸是一个行走的yelp评论机，笑到爆炸。 中美文化的冲突也很明显，...

学校那段估计很多ABC ABK都有类似的故事 better serve with corn tortilla tacos!
评分挺真诚的讲自己很有趣的经历。美国梦对每个人都有点不太一样。有些事情之前没有想过，也大概就是在美国这样的大熔炉里identity才会变成重要的社会议题，也会跟个人成长这么息息相关。到处做宣传讲的话都一样就有点烦。也不是很认同他以为的美国吧，虽然有点道理可还是觉得肤浅, completely anecdotal
评分典型（需要从零开始融入美国社会）又非典型（Comedian, Actor, Strip club DJ）的第一代移民，非常有意思的经历。公司的亚洲文化月把他请来了，也刚好推广他这本书，观众问有关Asian representation的时候他其实很反感，不断说Just let me do my joke, leave these questions to the sociologist，理解他不想总是代表亚洲人的辛苦，所以在书最后他强调他的Asian heritage还让我觉得有些错愕。我如果以后还想再练练public speaking的话，想也去试试open mic。
评分audible上是他本人念（演）的~基本上贡献了拍方向盘大笑若干次，以及粉上他爹了~作为一个亚裔strip club同好，真的笑哭了~不过听到说他回香港点了个凤爪吃，然后突然觉得在那时候他可以放下亚裔的身份那段，给我听哭了。我感觉我们属于同一类，太害怕不融入，导致融入得太好了，只有拿下作为异乡人的无形帽子的那一刻，有点可怜自己，那个理所当然的想法和举止跟人不一样的作为外国人的自己，在所谓包容的美国文化里淹没不见了。但是还是亚裔之光啦~我还是很欣赏他这种不惧怕被刻板化的精神，在亚裔的表面之下他依旧是个优秀的相声演员，喜剧演员，这才是作为亚裔的民族自信啊。
评分这个建议听audio 特别好笑
