If it was philosophy you most likely got played. Da Ren wouldn't be his last name though, as in Chinese the last name is always one syllable.
In case you are wondering about other homonyms of da ren, there is really only one other and that is 打人，but it literally translates to play/use person, but it's actual translation is the verb 'to beat someone'.
Here's a much more interesting development involving CIA however, put this into google translate and listen to the truth.

In Sumerian, the word for king was lu-gal. Lu-gal derives from lu, man, and gal, big. According to some, Sumerians were either the ancestors of the Altai-Uralic people, or were enslaved by them, thus earning them the name of Anunnaki.

You know what, the more I think about it, the more I realize that The Plane Scene is a lot like the Bible. In the same way that the Christian bible seems to predict things about man, and offer an outlook about the nature of the world, the Plane Scene accomplishes these goals. I would go as far as saying that the Plane Scene is is the modern equivalent to the ancient text. Seeing as now the chief medium of expression is film, it makes sense to transmit such an important doctrine via film.
Conclusion: If the bible was written now, it would be the Plane Scene.
