7月28日晚，FIRST影展闭幕式上，海清颁完奖后看着手机发表了一长段关于中年女演员被边缘化，希望行业消除成见，给予更多机会的演讲。请看本报周五的报道：

A surprising but heart-wrenching moment occurred at the closing ceremony of the 13th FIRST International Film Festival on July 28 in Xining, capital city of Qinghai when 41-year-old Hai Qing asked her fellow actresses, including Yao Chen, Liang Jing, Zhou Dongyu and Song Jia, to come on stage to plead for work.

“I’ve wanted to say it for a long time,” she said. “We are passionate about film, but most of us have been very passive and we are kept away from fine productions due to various limitations, such as the market and the script,” said the actress.

Hai’s words echo those of many other actresses who on different occasions have railed against ageism in the industry.

报道中的plead for就是“请求得到”，例如：

He pleads for the retention of the inn.

他请求保留这座小旅店。
