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.

評分☆☆☆☆☆

我成长在中国，因为准备去美国留学，所以想通过这本书了解下美国的文化。对于Jimmy所受的歧视，理解的同时，我本人并没有太大的共鸣。你选择成为美国人，也就选择了这份责任。反而，我却特别同情Jimmy的爸爸。尽管Jimmy现在在Hollywood小有名气了，但我知道，身为父亲的他，还...

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 ...

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...

看完Jimmy的Standup沉迷於此書。他很會講故事，隻是覺得中間的部分有些太誇張，以及敘事的語氣有些自大。他在Yahoo和HBO中抉擇的時候，還有從Strip club迴LA的兩個點非常的感人。那10年前後齣入境的對比也很有趣。”I’ve spent my life fitting in” - 從脫離，融入而又迴歸的三個階段，講述瞭他作為初代移民的種種境遇。非常欣賞他為瞭夢想堅定不移地走齣舒適區的勇氣。

audible上是他本人念（演）的~基本上貢獻瞭拍方嚮盤大笑若乾次，以及粉上他爹瞭~作為一個亞裔strip club同好，真的笑哭瞭~不過聽到說他迴香港點瞭個鳳爪吃，然後突然覺得在那時候他可以放下亞裔的身份那段，給我聽哭瞭。我感覺我們屬於同一類，太害怕不融入，導緻融入得太好瞭，隻有拿下作為異鄉人的無形帽子的那一刻，有點可憐自己，那個理所當然的想法和舉止跟人不一樣的作為外國人的自己，在所謂包容的美國文化裏淹沒不見瞭。但是還是亞裔之光啦~我還是很欣賞他這種不懼怕被刻闆化的精神，在亞裔的錶麵之下他依舊是個優秀的相聲演員，喜劇演員，這纔是作為亞裔的民族自信啊。

典型（需要從零開始融入美國社會）又非典型（Comedian, Actor, Strip club DJ）的第一代移民，非常有意思的經曆。公司的亞洲文化月把他請來瞭，也剛好推廣他這本書，觀眾問有關Asian representation的時候他其實很反感，不斷說Just let me do my joke, leave these questions to the sociologist，理解他不想總是代錶亞洲人的辛苦，所以在書最後他強調他的Asian heritage還讓我覺得有些錯愕。我如果以後還想再練練public speaking的話，想也去試試open mic。

原本希望憑藉本書學一些美籍華人小孩成長經曆的。 Jimmy是一個聰明孩子，隻是興趣不在學校，不在傢長給安排好的路，而是自己走瞭一條不平常的路。這本書通篇大白話，讀起來輕鬆。
