今天是父亲节。尽管事实上它是传统的西方庆典,但许多中国的年轻人们也在庆祝这一节日。

Today is Father's Day. But despite the fact that it is a traditionally western celebration, many young Chinese also celebrate. Our reporter Lin Nan finds out more.
Sunday is Father's Day. That brings something new for Lu Ming - who's not used to the holiday's calls for blunt expressions of affection.
Lu Ming, Father: "Our generation is more subtle when expressing emotions. It is more about what you do for your parents than what you say to them."
Lu Xiao, Son: "Even though Father's Day is a celebration from abroad, I still find it quite meaningful. It gives me the chance to say how grateful I am for what my father has done for me."
And this is a spirit that's putting smiles on the faces of business owners as well.
Qian Shuyan, Manager Hua's restaurant: "Father's Day has become more popular in recent years, and we have been promoting the event. Today the restaurant is really busy. Many families come here to enjoy our special set."
Lin Nan, Beijing: Chinese fathers traditionally take the lion's share of responsibility for the families. That means that many go to special lengths to show appreciation fort their fathers on this day no matter how far away.
Ruan Hao's family is thousands of miles away. The student is busy working on his graduate project in Beijing. But despite the day's tight schedule and the tough work ahead of him, he doesn't forget to make a call to his dad.
Ruan Hao, Student: "I don't think I have to go somewhere or buy something for my dad to celebrate. If I were with him, he would feel really happy as long as we could spend some quality time together."
Whether through gifts, a meal or just a simple "thanks," father's day is about one thing - showing love and appreciation for dad. That's a message we can all get behind no matter where you're from.
