U guess what the original Chinese are:
It's a business card, announces in Chinese: Zhao Baosheng/ Feng Shui
Master/Red and White Events/Services for the entire length of the dragon, from
begining to the end.

hehe,spot it in an artical about the Great Wall from the National Geographic.
It seems that Americans always prefer translating word by word, funny~

Another example is the "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon"
So accurate but i doubt any foreigner can catch the meaning~

说到"Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon"，媒体上经常套用这个句式。
前些天Jay Leno的show又拿Clinton开玩笑，就说“Crouching Intern,
Hidden Cigar"
还有一次章子仪走光照片被刊登出来，标题是"Crouching Tiger,
Hidden Nothing".挺好玩的。

Exactly.
Culture differences are the real obstacle.
But for the "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon", I believe there is a better way
out. Ever heard of the translation of "Wo De Fu Qin Mu Qin"? It's "the Road
Home". That's much better, 'coz it was translated by Chinese

Shui
