Even though I wish Will Smith could have used the Oscar stage to first VERBALLY extract an apology from Chris Rock, instead of slapping him and using profanity, I know that Will Smith’s intention was out of his love for his wife and to defend his wife above and beyond any considerations for himself, such as being charged for assault, or being criticized, or even barred from the Academy.
Cory Booker’s impassioned speech at Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings moved her, himself, myself, and many others to tears. Even though it was a speech prepared in advance, it was delivered in such a heartfelt and compassionate way that it completely overpowered the vicious attacks Judge Jackson had endured during the hearing.
I myself, as one of MANY women who have often fought our battles alone, defended ourselves and our honor alone, shared the tears of gratitude Judge Jackson shed, for the genuine understanding of what Cory Booker quotes Ginger Rogers as saying: “I did everything Fred Astaire did, but backwards and in heels.” Booker went on: “Nobody is gonna steal the joy,...” “You have earned this spot. You are worthy. You are a great American…. You’re here. And I know what it’s taken for you to sit in that seat.”
The good and the great that came out of these two men moves me, and frankly, I know for a fact that I am not the only woman who wishes their quality in a man who deserves to be called a husband, or a partner, or a true friend, or a decent human being who gives a piece of his or her true self in an unjust or even humiliating situation.
This kind of compassion and love is not limited to a man’s protection for another woman or vice versa. This kind of love transcends race, gender, nationality, and all barriers to humanity.
You see it in so many non-Ukrainian volunteer fighters risking their lives in Ukraine, because they feel that the pain and suffering Ukrainians are going through is not something they can bear to watch on the sideline.

Episode 53: 7 tips for making a brand video, by 10PlusBrand.com
Sunday Mar 27, 2022
Sunday Mar 27, 2022
What is a brand video? Why is a brand video needed?
What are the differences between a brand video and other videos?
Where can a brand video be showcased?
What assets are needed for making a brand video? How is it edited?
How long should a brand video be?
Is voice-over needed? Are acting talents necessary?
What is the budget range for a brand video?
...
As part of a book I am writing, “How to become a brand - Decode, Create, Amplify”, I will be sharing many tips for brand building. Before publishing the book, I will share some of my specific topics for paid subscribers to 10 Plus Brand’s newsletters. I will let you all know in advance before making any blogs as “for paid subscribers only”.
If you want to know the 7 tips for a brand promotional video, please sign up as paid subscribers here.
The tips given as paid content, and other valuable proprietary information we are releasing every month, is at only $5/month, or $60/year. The paid content is based on years of experience in scripting, directing, filming and recording, editing and producing many brand promotional videos for insurance agencies, executive coaches, law firms, CFO and accounting services, a private museum, Silicon Valley engineering firms and technology startups, acupuncturists, interior designers, real estate brokers, and many other industrial, B2B and B2C companies, and individuals.
Next paid content for Substack subscribers will be about “How to do digital marketing and social media marketing with any budget”
A hint:
Build a solid brand foundation first, before building the “3rd floor”: a brand video. The foundation is brand DNA decoding. The first floor is the brand’s structure, strategies, stories, in verbal narratives. The second floor is the identity items of a brand: business name, logo, sometimes a tagline or slogan, the look and feel.
The first, second “floors” will be addressed in Chapter One and Two (the blog form of which to be released later for paid newsletter subscribers).

Episode 52: Ukraine War and Americans’ Responsibilities
Sunday Mar 13, 2022
Sunday Mar 13, 2022
The Ukraine War as an intervention, unification, inspiration, and revelation of characters, both personal and national
My older son has been serving in the US military for about 7 years. As soon as the Ukraine War broke out three weeks ago, he was deployed to a NATO country in Europe. Moments before he boarded the military plane, I said to him: “ My son, thank you for your service.” He was a little surprised to hear this from me, and I said: “In your own small ways, you are defending democracy, freedom, and our way of life.”
I don’t know about you, but for me, after watching on TV the heart-breaking human suffering and devastation in Ukraine, I started to view my daily routines with a new appreciation. I realized that what I took for granted could be taken away, like what happened overnight to the suffering Ukrainians. What was a mundane daily routine three weeks ago now seems like privilege, - things like taking a walk and watching people walking their dogs or pushing strollers, even doing dishes in my kitchen that was not torn apart or bombed to rubbles, and sleeping in my own warm bed instead of the cold floor in a bunker…
Seeing the heroic Ukrainians who would rather die to keep their freedom and their fledgling democracy, this war has awakened our consciousness about the evil of authoritarianism.
As we witness the tragic loss of lives, smoldering rubble, destroyed cities, and millions of refugees, nothing is more agonizing than the feeling that one can do nothing, other than watching peaceful and innocent people suffer, while evil and violence is being brutally perpetrated.
Like many of you, I want to do whatever is within my power to help Ukraine. Doing something, anything helps ease my own feelings of helplessness and agony, and puts my conscience at peace. So I have donated a sizable amount of money to NovaUkraine.org.
We cannot take our democracy for granted. If you don’t have the financial resources to donate any amount, each and every one of us can at least do this: improve our OWN democracy, restore America as the beacon of hope and light, and strive for a more perfect union. By exercising and participating constructively in our democracy, by being good citizens, and by building a stronger American democracy, we are sending hopeful messages to the world that those who gave their lives for freedom and democracy did not make the ultimate sacrifice in vain.
Please listen to the entire 10-minute podcast that also covered the following:
- The war has united & inspired Americans & all democracies globally
- We all shoulder the responsibility to protect , defend, and improve our democracy
- A stress test of individuals, leaders, and the free world
- “Stand for Something” - individually and nationally

Joanne Z Tan, CEO of 10 Plus Brand interviews Jonathan Leidy about Young Men's Ultimate Weekend that helps teenage boys grow mentally, emotionally, physically.
(Excerpt:)
Joanne Tan:
"In addition to "Interviews of Notables and Influencers", I also interview ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Today Jonathan Leidy is one of those unsung heroes. He is an ordinary person doing extraordinary things."
"One Sunday evening I was watching TV while doing dishes. And then there came Lisa ling, "This is Life". And I heard in the background, "here is 'Pork Chop'". And as soon as the so-called "Pork Chop" started to talk,... I know that voice, that's Jonathan Leidy! Okay, great job, "Pork Chop". And then Lisa Ling described what this camp is all about. And the more I listened to it, the more I felt like, wow, this is great, from my perspective of a mother to two young men, knowing their struggles, and also as a humbly-learning-parent-for-life. And also seeing this school shooting, and mass shooting, and all perpetuated by young men, I really feel compelled to invite Jonathan on my podcast. And thank you, Jonathan, for this honor and privilege."
(Jonathan Leidy:)
"...So it gives everybody the opportunity to get outdoors to break up in teams, to lead teams, to go through physical and emotional challenges. And all of that is really under the guise of, I think, above all else, getting young men interacting with one another, and really understanding what makes each other tick, and really starting to relate to one another on a level that's much deeper than they might do today, you know, just over the computer somewhere..."

Episode 49: Super Bowl 2022 Best 3 TV Commercials
Saturday Feb 12, 2022
Saturday Feb 12, 2022
This year, something peculiar happened-- previous years’ super bowl ads were all released weeks or days before the big game; this year, only about 35% of the ads have been pre-released two weeks before the game date on Feb. 13, 2022, and as of before the 56th Super Bowl, about 80% of commercials were released on the internet.
Was it because companies are afraid of not making it to our top 3 best Super Bowl list? If that’s the case, we are very flattered. But forcing people to watch poorly made ads will make your captive audience more resentful of your brand. Our sole purpose for ranking Super Bowl ads is to up YOUR game of making better commercials that truly CONNECT with people without flashy gimmicks.
Bravo to the 80% brands that have pre released their Super Bowl ads ahead of the big game!
Post game update: What a game! We stand by our prior picks, since no other ads were better than our top 3. What we picked previously are the finalists in the original order.
Our criteria for judging the best three super bowl Ads
We stick to the same criteria for the best ads, year after year:
- NO CELEBRITIES in the ad,
- No vulgarity, partisanship, bad taste and
- The brand’s message comes across clearly and artistically with originality & integrity.
And the 1st place winner is....

Web3, NFT, and Metaverse will decentralize education into learn-to-earn model, and build a creator economy, and even make movie watchers into roles they play in the movie ...
Patrick Lee, co-founder of Rotten Tomatoes, was interviewed by Joanne Z. Tan on the "Interviews of Notables and Influencers" podcast, video and blog series, where Patrick talked about these topics:
The recent Theranos Elizabeth Holmes trial, "fake it till you make it",
Silicon Valley culture,
NFT, Web3, Metaverse, their roles in a creator economy, in a new learn to earn education model,
Decentralization, blockchain, AI, AR, VR,
The future of gaming, movies and entertainment industry intersecting with Technology,...
AND, what does Patrick Lee's brand stand for?...
Patrick Lee imagined the NFT, Web3 metaverse will revolutionize "learn to earn" education model, and the entertainment, movie making world. The "play to earn" gaming model can be evolved into "learn to earn" for students: "...they're actually earning a token or NFTs that can actually be converted into money. And ideally, you could get the rich people in the world to be paying the poor people to learn."
A LOT of insights! Thank you Patrick Lee!
